Shao Mo's promise really excited the hearts of the three shop assistants.

"Madam boss, is this true? We are taking it seriously!"

Shao Mo smiled, "Don't worry, words spoken are like water spilled on the ground, there is no reason to take them back. You just work hard during this period, and I will sign a supplementary agreement with you at the end of the year. As long as you work for three years, you can get 2% of the dividend shares. If you don't want the shares, the company will directly sponsor you to buy a house."

"Good! The boss lady is generous!"

The three shop assistants clapped their hands in delight.

After they were happy, they noticed Ling Chuan standing aside without saying anything. For a moment, everyone's heart started beating fast.

After all, Ling Chuan is the real boss. If the boss doesn't say anything, can the boss's wife's words count? "Boss..."

Seeing the concerns of the three people, Ling Chuan said directly: "You listen to me about the store, but I listen to my wife, so what she says counts."

"Oh Yeah!" The three of them were excited again.

After dinner, Shao Mo and Ling Chuan stood at the door of the store, basking in the sun to digest their food while chatting.

"I promised my employees to buy a house. What do you think?"

"Wife, I will listen to you."

Shao Mo kicked the floor tiles under her feet and said, "You can't say that in official business. I'm also an ordinary person. I also make mistakes in decision-making or act emotionally. At this time, you should stand up and stop me."

Ling Chuan thought for a moment and expressed his opinion, "Wife, I think your decision is fine. If I can successfully complete the company's targets, the annual profit will be 1.5 million. After deducting various expenses and operating costs, there will be absolutely no problem in making a net profit of 1 million a year, which will be 3 million in three years.

As veteran employees, they have earned so much money for me, so it is only right that I give them some of it as dividends.”

Shao Mo was very satisfied with the man's awareness.

"If you want the horse to run, you have to feed it. It's easy to hire employees who can do the job, but it's hard to find employees who are both capable and reliable. Only when we promise them a bright future, treat them well, and let them see hope, will they work for us without reservation."

"Um."

—

Money makes the world go round. Shao Lin found out Yuan Yian's biological father without much effort.

Looking at the thick stack of information in his hand, Shao Lin felt extremely upset.

The other party’s surname is Zhao, he is 43 years old, from Anshi, and he is involved in all kinds of eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, just like a gangster.

The reason why Yuan Jia chose him as a scapegoat was because her boyfriend Zhao Yongquan was sentenced to 25 years in prison for robbery and murder 20 years ago, and he is still in prison.

It really proves the saying "A dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse's son will dig holes."

If the father is a bastard, the son will not be a good person either.

However, Zhao Yongquan's parents are still alive, and his other brothers are also doing well, some are in business and some are in politics.

Generally speaking, the Zhao family is well off, except for Zhao Yongquan, a crooked person.

Shao Lin thought for a moment and finally decided to contact the Zhao family.

Yuan Jia is dead, and Yuan Wei knows that he won't care about Yuan Yian's life or death. As they are father and son, he also hopes that Yuan Yian can be disciplined and become a new person.

To Shao Lin's surprise, the Zhao family was overjoyed to learn that their youngest son had another son.

Upon some inquiries, they found out that Zhao Yongquan was suffering from a terminal illness and didn't have much time left to live. The old lady of the Zhao family had always blamed herself for not raising her youngest son well, and was even more regretful that her youngest son had no descendants. The old lady was depressed all day long, and her health was getting worse day by day.

But they didn't expect that God would be kind enough to send them such a big grandson (nephew).

Afterwards, the Zhao family used their connections and relationships to transfer Zhao Zhengxin from the Beijing Prison back to the Anshi Prison.

By the time Shao Mo found out about this, Zhao Zhengxin had already returned to Anshi and met with the Zhao family.

When Shao Mo heard that the other party's surname was Zhao and that he had a powerful background in An City, the first person she thought of was Zhao Xuehai.

I called and asked, and hey, it’s true.

Zhao Yongquan is Zhao Xuehai's biological brother! Zhao Zhengxin is Zhao Xuehai's biological nephew and Zhao Yazhi's cousin!

Just tell me, this world is small or not!

Shao Mo never expected that after so many twists and turns, she actually became sworn sister with Zhao Zhengxin!

However, Yuan Jia did not seem to know Zhao Yongquan's true background, otherwise the Yuan family would have contacted the Zhao family long ago after Zhao Zhengxin's background was exposed.

In order to prevent the Yuan family from using Zhao Zhengxin to take advantage of the Zhao family, Shao Mo very subtly hinted to the Zhao family that the cause of Yuan Jia's death was suspicious. As for how the Zhao family would deal with the Yuan family, that was not something she could control.

Zhao Zhengxin’s matter came to an end, and the winter solstice arrived in the blink of an eye.

The custom of the winter solstice in Jiang City is to eat dumplings and mutton. The custom in Beijing is similar, eating wontons and then stewing a pot of mutton, which is delicious and warming.

On the day of the winter solstice, Shao Mo went to the villa early in the morning and delivered some fresh shepherd's purse and mutton so that Mrs. Zheng could have a good winter solstice.

As soon as she saw Shao Mo, Mrs. Zheng happily pulled her into the bedroom.

"Xiaomo, I can't wear these clothes and pants anymore, look."

As Mrs. Zheng spoke, she tried on the clothes on the bed one by one for her to see.

Mrs. Zheng originally weighed 145 pounds, and all her clothes were XL or even XXL. Now, through diet control and exercise, although her weight is still over 120 pounds, her body circumference has shrunk significantly. She can wear L or even M size without any problem, but naturally she can no longer wear these XL and XXL clothes.

"Xiao Mo, I really didn't expect that I could really lose weight successfully. It's been less than a month and I've lost so much weight, wuwuwu..."

Perhaps because she was too happy and too excited, Mrs. Zheng started crying as she spoke.

Shao Mo hugged her and comforted her for a while, then encouraged her to hold on.

"There's only one final phase left, during which you may not lose much weight, but your body size will continue to change.

Fat is like cotton. Two taels may not sound like a lot, but when cut off, it is as big as a fist.

You lost weight quickly before because you had too much body fat and water. After this period of adjustment, the fat and water in your body have been greatly reduced, so your weight loss has also slowed down. But even if you only lose one or two pounds a day, or even no weight at all, it is still an achievement, so you must persist."

"good."

Mrs. Zheng now trusts Shao Mo 200%, and she believes whatever Shao Mo says.

After visiting Mrs. Zheng, Shao Mo returned to the Shao family compound.

"Hey, Miss, where did you buy the shepherd's purse? It's so fresh and juicy."

Sister Hua kept praising the shepherd's purse in the basket. Shao Mo smiled and explained, "It's not dug outside. I grew it myself in the greenhouse."

"No wonder. It's not easy to find wild shepherd's purse in such a cold weather."

Of course, Shao Mo couldn't go to the wild to dig shepherd's purse. She planted all these shepherd's purse in the second space. The time flow rate in the second space was fast. If you planted it yesterday, you can eat it today. It was very convenient.
