Shen Anyian brought Han Zhen into his office and poured him a glass of water. "Have you eaten? Are you hungry?"
At least she still has some conscience and remembers to ask herself if she is hungry.
Han Zhen gulped down the water in his cup. "Who said I wasn't hungry? I just came to your house looking for you. Aunt Qin said you were here, so I came to find you as soon as I put down my luggage."
"I'll take you back to eat something later."
"Okay, I have another question for you. Am I one of the first members of your institute?"
"The research institute hasn't been built yet. It's still in the preparation stage."
Han Zhen was delighted when he heard this, "Then I am a veteran."
"Yes, you are a veteran. After our institute was established, you were the first employee. There is no one with more seniority than you.
But I have to make one thing clear to you: the army's budget is a bit tight, so we can't offer high salaries."
In the past, Han Zhen didn’t care at all whether he got a salary or not, but this time it’s not the same.
Before he came here, he boasted to his grandfather that he wanted to build a career and didn't want to be supported by his family.
So he has to take this salary.
"It can't be opened too much, so how much is it?"
"The initial investment in the research institute is too huge, so I can only offer you 30 or 40 yuan a month."
"So little."
“We are just starting out, and the funds are mainly used to invest in research and development.
You know R&D projects are a bottomless pit, and our funds are already tight, so we can only save a little wherever we can."
"That's fine, thirty is thirty."
Shen Anyan originally planned to discuss with Director Fang and give him a salary of 40 yuan.
Unexpectedly, he took the initiative to lower the price by ten yuan, and Shen Annian was naturally very happy.
"I'll talk to Director Fang and I'll calculate your salary once you start working."
“When can I start work?”
Shen An Nian scratched his cheek, feeling a little embarrassed. "At least we have to wait until the research institute is completed. Otherwise, I would be embarrassed to bring this up with Director Fang."
"You mean I'm working for you now but I can't get paid?"
After hearing what he said, I felt that I was so immoral. This was exploiting human labor.
"How about this, I'll give you twenty dollars personally, is that okay with you?"
Han Zhen looked her up and down, "Will you pay me?"
What does his look mean? He looks down on people.
She is now a millionaire with more than ten thousand yuan, so she is very rich.
"I'm rich."
"Thanks. I wouldn't ask a little girl for her money."
Shen Anyian took Han Zhen to see Director Fang. Director Fang looked Han Zhen up and down, wondering if he was too young and whether he could do research. He looked like a playboy no matter how he looked at him.
Pulling Shen Annian aside, he whispered to her, “If you really want to recruit him to our place, I don’t think he is a person who can get things done.
Is it because he is Commander Han's grandson that it is difficult to refuse? I can talk to him about this."
He had the nerve to refuse.
Shen Anyan shook his head, “He is Commander Han’s grandson, and he must have many more connections than us.
Even if he has no skills, he has connections and channels. In the future, when we need to find people and information, his connections will be our channels.
And I have already told him that the monthly salary is only 30 yuan.
Even if we hire a cleaning lady for the institute, wouldn't it cost this much money?"
Hearing her say that, this deal seems to be quite a good deal.
Director Fang was completely persuaded by Shen Annian's words, "Okay, if he wants to come, then come.
But the house hasn't been built yet, so he has nowhere to live if he comes here now."
As an outsider, it was not easy for him to join the army, and Director Fang was worried about how to arrange accommodation for him.
"Don't worry about that for now. I told him to go home and research the freeze dryer. He won't be here for ten days or half a month."
"Then should we not pay him for now?"
"Yes, I've already made an agreement with him. I'll pay him his salary only after the institute is completed and he reports to work."
Director Fang nodded with satisfaction. "That's it. I trust you to do the job."
"Director, we've made a lot of money in the past six months. Do you really have to be so stingy?"
Look how he laughed when he heard that he didn’t need to be paid.
Upon hearing this, Director Fang immediately started crying poor to her.
"You only see the people coming in but not the people leaving. There are more than 3,000 people in our group. You can calculate how much it costs to feed and lodge every day.
There are also various funding needs. Let’s not talk about anything else. We built schools, research institutes, and dormitories. These were all proposed by you, and they all cost money.
Brigade Commander Zhou also plans to replace military equipment, which costs a lot of money.
We are very poor now. I am still waiting for this batch of goods from Shanghai to be delivered so that we can get the balance payment.
Xiao Nian, we can save as much as we can right now."
When it comes to crying poor, no one can beat Director Fang.
No one.
"I'm just telling you casually, I don't intend to ask you to pay.
Director, I have to ask you for half a day off. Comrade Han has come all the way here and hasn't eaten yet. I'll take him back to eat something."
Director Fang glanced at the dusty Han Zhen and said sympathetically, "Okay, then go ahead and get busy."
Shen Anyian brought Han Zhen back home. When Qin's mother saw them coming back together, she asked Shen Anyian, "Why are you back?"
"I'll bring him back for something to eat."
"Okay, I'll make something to eat. Xiao Han, what do you want to eat?"
