Since the 1990s, there have been more cases of employees taking unpaid leave.
The famous saying "Those who make missiles are not as good as those who sell tea eggs" also became widely known.
As a university professor, Xu Manman is actually among the top earners among the working class in terms of salary income, but she is still not as good as those small vendors outside.
Those with high profits can earn an ordinary person's monthly salary in one day. After a long-term comparison, there will always be a sense of disparity.
But if everyone really had to take off their work clothes and go out in public to do business, many people would not be able to bring themselves to do it.
The impact of the movement a few years ago has not completely dissipated. Everyone still believes that businessmen are at the bottom of the social ladder and have no capital, so they can only start out as small vendors.
Not everyone is like Xu Wen, who has a powerful elder brother and a wealthy niece, and who can expand his business so much from the beginning and has the confidence to think and act boldly.
Moreover, most ordinary workers, whether on factory assembly lines or in offices, do repetitive work every day, which does not allow them to accumulate many skills that can be monetized.
Therefore, only a small number of people can really make it out of this situation. Most people still think that a stable job is better.
Among Xu Manman's colleagues, there are not many who have actually taken unpaid leave. After all, being a university teacher is indeed a very decent job.
However, I have done a lot of part-time jobs. I don’t know when it started, but it became popular for major companies to hire professional consultants, of course, university teachers are the best, or laboratory research institutes.
Even Xu Jianguo and Chen Ming were contacted several times, not to mention Xu Manman. Even Uncle Xu Wen's clothing factory had several professionals who recommended themselves.
"Why don't you ask Third Uncle to be our factory's consultant? You're already a major shareholder, and we earn this money ourselves, so we won't give it to outsiders."
Xu Manman smiled helplessly, "Uncle San, we're just a clothing factory. We don't have any major technical challenges, and we don't have any plans to go public for the time being. If we need a consultant, why don't you go to the Academy of Fine Arts and see if you can recruit some good designers this year?"
"I've already asked someone to take care of this. You'll be back in Hai City for summer vacation in a few days, right? Then you can help me take a look at it."
"We'll talk about it later. I think Xiao Wang from the design department is pretty good and can handle things on his own."
"Well, I brought her up. I'll put her under my command when the new person arrives."
After hanging up the call with her uncle, Xu Manman continued to talk to Xiao Jin via voice.
"I want to eat Wang Ji's fried wontons and red bean double skin milk." I'll bring them back to my space to eat in the evening.
Xiao Jin's magnetic voice echoed in his mind, "Well, I've almost finished integrating my assets. I'll be back next week. Do you want some roasted squab?"
"want!"
"Okay, what do you want to eat for lunch, Manman?" When going out, Jin Zichu was most worried about his wife's meal.
I didn’t notice that Manman was a little lonely in the space kitchen. Her classes today are three and four in the morning. According to Manman’s personality, she probably won’t cook by herself. So what did she eat?
"The cafeteria I ate in today has a few windows that are contracted out to people outside. There's a place that makes oil-splashed noodles. I tried it and it tasted pretty good. I'll take you there next time."
With a husband like Jin Zichu who is devoted to her all the time, Xu Manman hasn't eaten out for a long time. Occasionally eating in the cafeteria is not bad for Xu Manman.
Jin Zichu is now in Hong Kong. The stock market crash that started on Wall Street a few years ago has greatly affected Hong Kong.
Xu Manman and his wife had made a lot of money before that, but when the stock market crashed, they did not make a fortune, but used Caleb's power to help.
Although the index did fall a bit in the end, it was much better than the ending in Xu Manman's previous life.
Over the years, in addition to the stock market, the couple has also gradually purchased some other assets. Although Xu Manman finds being a landlady troublesome, she would be a fool not to take advantage of such a good opportunity.
Moreover, at that time, many people who played stocks lost their fortunes, and the capital chain of those who did business was broken. They used their money to purchase assets. Although they took advantage of others, the large amount of cash that arrived in time prevented them from losing their families.
After all this, they have quite a lot of assets in their hands, including land, real estate, shops and shares acquired by various companies. Although they have no real industry, they are not as big as Caleb's. In terms of valuation alone, they can be regarded as the richest man in China, and this does not include the assets of Xu Manman in the United States.
