Chapter 19 The Ungrateful Man Who Sold His Sisters to Escape the Mountains
Everyone was excited when they heard what Ji Huaizhi said.
Ji Huaizhi saw the happy expressions on their faces again: "As you all have seen during this period, you should be able to calculate the daily turnover of your store."
"So this commission system allows you to earn higher salaries, and if you work hard, you'll definitely reap significant rewards."
"Clap clap clap clap clap!" Everyone applauded after hearing that.
They were very pleased with the boss's suggestion.
They had said before, when they were exhausted, that the boss was making all the money.
Unexpectedly, this boss also values the interests of his employees.
"Next, everyone come forward one by one to collect your salary and bonus." Ji Huaizhi gave Jiang Fulin a wink.
Jiang Fulin: "The people I call out will come up. The first one is Shang Hua."
"The second one..."
Everyone was overjoyed to hear that there would be a bonus.
After everyone received their money, Fang Youliang had the food served, as everyone was hungry after a long day.
Looking at the dishes on the table, my desire to work hard intensified. This boss is really generous and treats his employees very well.
Some people who were sensible enough to understand social etiquette went to toast Ji Huaizhi.
Zhang Xiaoxiao harbored resentment towards Ji Huaizhi for consistently disrespecting her.
Picking up her wine glass, she approached the table where Ji Huaizhi was. Seeing Ji Xiang wearing a Peter Pan collar dress, no longer as awkward as before, and occasionally exchanging a few words with these men, she felt extremely displeased.
Interrupting the person speaking: "Brother Ji, you've only talked about these new employees, what about the rest of us?"
"Like the Zhang family, who come from your village? And me?"
What about our benefits and compensation?
Ji Huaizhi sat in the chair, his gaze not even falling on her.
She was like a complete stranger, not even worth a second glance from him.
Zhang Er coughed and said, "Zhang Xiaoxiao, don't stop us. Brother Ji has been good to us. He taught us things and even took us to take our driver's license tests."
"We're even providing food and lodging for the few of us, what more do you want?"
Yu Hai: "Exactly, what are you doing in front of everyone?"
Zhang Xiaoxiao was furious that they didn't react at all: "Is this all you've got?"
"You said you'd teach us something, but you haven't taught me yet!"
Little monkey: "I'm teaching you, but you just won't learn!"
Zhang Xiaoxiao raised her chin: "Then why not send me to study accounting? Just like Ji Xiang?"
Jiang Fulin sneered: "Ji Xiang is Brother Ji's own sister. What are you to compare yourself to her?"
“You…” Zhang Xiaoxiao pointed at him: “You’ve gone too far!”
Ji Huaizhi raised his hand: "Then tell me what your thoughts are?"
Zhang Xiaoxiao declared matter-of-factly, "I demand equal pay with these new employees, and I want to learn accounting too!"
Ji Huaizhi seemed to have heard something amusing. Although it was clear that his laughter was malicious, it was like a shooting star in the cold night, dazzling and captivating.
Zhang Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment.
But the moment he opened his mouth, she was plunged into despair.
"Why do you demand equal pay but not equal work?" Ji Huaizhi asked the little monkey to bring out the things and then said, "I was planning to come find you after dinner, but I didn't expect you to come to me first."
"Then let's settle the other accounts."
Zhang Xiaoxiao panicked when she saw his expression: "What do you mean? What score do you want to settle with me for?"
"What do you think? Stealing money from the store's accounts and falsifying the ledgers." He then placed the inventory book on the table. "And stealing the store's seafood stock. You don't think you've hidden it well, do you?"
A mocking look appeared in Ji Huaizhi's eyes.
Ji Xiang's eyes widened: "Xiao Xiao, how could you do such a thing?"
The other employees who were eating didn't dare to say anything either, because stealing company property used to be severely punished.
To put it bluntly, isn't this called embezzlement of public funds?
"What proof do you have that I did this? What if it was Little Monkey?" Zhang Xiaoxiao retorted stubbornly, "You just don't want to pay me my wages!"
"Yes! You've definitely wanted to fire me for a long time without any reason, and now you're trying to get rid of me with some random excuse!"
"Did everyone see that?" Zhang Xiaoxiao said loudly, "Be careful, this guy surnamed Ji might fire you all on some random excuse later!"
"And we'll smear you even more!"
"He just doesn't want to pay us employees' wages."
Her words did not arouse any suspicion from these people, after all, the requests that President Ji had just made were all aimed at enabling them to earn more.
Zhang Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth. These idiots didn't utter a single word!
Turning to look at Ji Huaizhi, who had remained silent, she glanced at everyone at the table and said, "You just want to kick me out, don't you?"
"I'll leave!"
"Did I tell you to leave?" Ji Huaizhi's cold, hard voice stopped her.
"You don't think you can just leave so easily after taking my money and goods, do you?" Ji Huaizhi calmly raised his eyes.
Today he was wearing a well-fitting navy blue suit, which concealed his thuggishness and made him look much more composed than usual.
He has the air of a successful person.
Jiang Fulin: "We already have evidence of your theft, and your recent spending also proves that the money you have is not from legitimate sources. You had better pay back the money, otherwise our boss Ji will send you to the police station."
Zhang Xiaoxiao took a few steps back: "What are you saying?"
Jiang Fulin, seeing her disbelief, asked, "You sent so much seafood back from the post office, did you really think they wouldn't be able to find it?"
The little monkey raised an eyebrow and looked at Brother Ji.
He told Brother Ji that he had no evidence, but unexpectedly, evidence was found not long afterward.
That's really impressive!
Zhang Xiaoxiao panicked. Others pointed and whispered about her. After all, who would dare to hire someone with dirty hands in the future?
"No, I paid for all of those." Zhang Xiaoxiao found the surrounding voices somewhat jarring.
Her gaze towards Ji Huaizhi was pleading: "Brother Ji..."
"I'll give you one day. If you don't return all the money before the store closes by tomorrow, then we'll see you at the police station."
“I’ve done the math. Subtracting your salary of 150 for the past two weeks, plus the goods you took from the store and the money you stole, you’ll have to pay back a total of 2675.”
The number Ji Huaizhi mentioned startled her: "How could it be so many?"
"Then I'll have to ask you," Ji Huaizhi said coldly. "If I don't see the money by tomorrow, you know what will happen."
Zhang Xiaoxiao panicked: "Brother Ji, can I work for you to pay off your debts?"
"Don't call the police. Besides, Ji Xiang and I are friends. I'm her only friend."
"Can you please stop making this scene? I..."
Seeing that he remained unmoved, Zhang Xiaoxiao turned to Ji Xiang for help.
Ji Xiang was already feeling guilty for causing her brother to lose so much money.
When Zhang Xiaoxiao grabbed her hand and begged her, she pushed her away without hesitation: "If you don't return this money to my brother, I'll tell our old classmates and friends!"
"Let them see your true colors."
Ji Xiang's sudden anger made Jiang Fulin take another look.
