89. Boss, Subordinate
She has participated in a lot of disaster relief efforts, and has been fighting more and more head-on with strange beasts.
Without her realizing it, her eyes had become extremely sharp and oppressive.
The arrogant and lazy Corny was frightened by her aura and lost his mind for a moment, but as a big guy, he would not change his attitude because of this little episode.
Under the gaze of his colleagues, he said stubbornly, "It's too late today, and the lab is very busy. How can we possibly get the results in two hours? I'll send the rhizomes over tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, he seemed to hear his colleagues chuckling mockingly.
He has been in the Ruins Garden for quite a while and has always considered himself a senior, often putting on airs and showing off his power.
Being confronted so openly by Su Liu, he was furious. To save face, he quickly said, "As for when the results will come out, I'm not sure."
Seeing Su Liu's face darken, he smugly made an excuse and said with a smirk, "You can't blame me for this, right? I'm just a planter, and I can't tell the laboratory what to do. Since your requirements are so high, why don't you go and urge them yourself?"
Daniel and the others looked at Kauni and then at Su Liu, as if they were weighing and guessing in their hearts what the outcome of the contest between the two would be.
After a long time, Su Liu brought a stack of paper documents and started searching.
Corny thought she was using busyness as an excuse to hide her guilt and embarrassment, and he couldn't help but feel even more proud, even speaking in a contemptuous tone.
"Although you're a purifier, you're still young and have only a limited understanding of planting. As a senior, I advise you to be humble and learn from us. Don't give us seniors instructions, otherwise..."
Before he finished speaking, Su Liu had already found the information he wanted. He pulled it out and slammed it on the table, interrupting Corny's chatter.
Corny took a closer look and found that it seemed to be his paper employment contract.
Su Liu glanced through the information and said mockingly, "Although you're not soldiers, you work for the military after all. I thought you would at least have a certain degree of discipline and obedience. Now it seems that I'm really too inexperienced. I didn't realize that there are so many people who can take advantage of trouble."
Corny's face changed. Just as he was about to retort, he heard Su Liu say, "I emphasized twice that the rose rhizomes should be sent to the laboratory immediately, but you kept making excuses and trying to get away with it."
Looking directly into Kauni's somewhat cloudy eyes, Su Liu said, "Then you don't need to do this."
Not only was Connie confused, but Daniel and others who were watching also did not understand Su Liu's intentions.
Su Liu's eyes were too firm and clear. Corny had a bad feeling and stammered, "Then, should I do something else?"
"No, you've been demoted." Su Liu said calmly, "From now on, you'll be responsible for the simplest cleaning work in the Ruins Garden. As for research and planting-related matters, you don't need to interfere."
What?
Corny's eyes widened instantly, and Su Liu immediately tore up his employment documents and threw the scraps of paper into the trash can.
"I specifically asked before coming here. I have the power to appoint and dismiss all of you. In other words, I can fire you at any time. This is clearly stated in your employment contract."
Corny's face turned red and white, white and black, but it was not visible because of his dark skin tone.
He was so angry that he pounded his fist on the table and yelled in frustration: "You are just an intern, why do you treat me like this?"
Su Liu grinned: "Not convinced? Why don't you take the exam to become a purifier too?"
Corny: “…”
The man who had been domineering in the garden for several years could not stand such an arrangement.
But even though he yelled, threatened verbally, and even wanted to use violence, he could not change Su Liu's determination.
She called the soldiers over and took Connie into custody.
Now it's just a demotion. If Cousin is still not satisfied, then just fire him.
Corny was dragged away by the soldiers. He cursed at first, but when he realized that Su Liu was serious, he began to panic.
A pitiful cry for mercy came from a distance and gradually disappeared completely.
Su Liu's ears were quiet, and he sat in the chair and rocked leisurely.
Looking at the remaining six people, she smiled generously and tolerantly.
“Although my internship is less than two months, I still have to work for a while, and I really don’t want to be constantly unhappy because of subordinates who dissented from my job.
In terms of seniority, you are all my seniors, and I believe that I will have many areas where I need your guidance.
If everyone lives in peace, I am not such an unkind person and will definitely not use my military rank to bully others.
But if someone, like Senior Cowney, makes things difficult for me on the first day, or does something bad behind my back, then I really can’t stand it.”
With a slightly sad expression, Sulu frowned and said, "Let's work together happily and become model seniors and juniors who work in perfect harmony, okay?"
Daniel and others thought numbly, how could they say it was bad?
Can they speak?
For a moment, the six people nodded and vowed not to cause trouble for Su Liu.
Su Liu was finally satisfied and continued to assign tasks.
It was soon six o'clock in the afternoon. Although there was still work to be done, Su Liu did not ask for overtime.
She would have to stay in the garden for a while, and no one else dared to move.
Seeing this, Su Liu said, "I'm going to wait for my friends here, you guys should go home first."
Daniel brushed the dirt off his sleeves and asked, "Really?"
"Really? I'll leave as soon as my friends arrive." Su Liu said with a smile, "I won't work overtime if there's no overtime pay."
The growers thought, you don’t get paid during the day.
But seeing that Su Liu really had no intention of saying anything sarcastic, they hesitated for a moment, and still walked away with a little uneasiness, looking back every few steps.
Su Liu sighed.
I used to work on my own, so even though I had three more roommates as assistants, it wasn't a superior-subordinate relationship, so I didn't have to be so cautious when getting along with them.
But here…
She gave a wry smile.
No one really told her how to handle workplace relationships, how to treat subordinates, and how to manage these people.
At around seven o'clock, Selina sent a message to Su Liu, saying that she was waiting at the port.
Su Liu put on his bag and took a car to the port that Selina mentioned.
A large cruise ship is docked here, with quite a few people already on board.
After meeting up with Silena, Su Liu came to the deck.
It gets dark early in winter, and it is snowing, so the sea is dark and foggy. All you can see is the surging black sea and the light of a lighthouse in the distance.
Su Liu smoothed her hair that was messed up by the strong wind and said, "You don't have to take a boat to go to and from get off work every day, do you?"
Selina leaned against the railing and said, "If you're going to and from get off work alone, you do need to take a boat. But if you're with the Second Young Master, you can take a ride on his private airship."
There is a no-fly zone above the military base. Except for fighter jets and airships used by senior military officers, all other private aircraft need to be registered and operate on specific air tracks.
