In the eyes of the general public, employees are a vulnerable group, and bosses are seen as ruthless and exploitative.
He Wenlin also admitted that 99.9999% of bosses are like that, so He Wenlin cannot let Qiu Lili continue to take things out of context and talk nonsense, otherwise everyone will definitely think that it is her fault.
He Wenlin immediately retorted loudly: "I paid you to work, and you took my money but left your post for several hours without permission. You weren't here when the supermarket was busiest, and you didn't even ask for leave. How can you be so casual about working? Was I wrong to fire you?"
"How many are there..." Qiu Lili tried to argue.
But He Wenlin didn't give her a chance to speak and continued to say loudly, "Let everyone come and judge. She was not there when the store was busiest. She didn't ask for leave and disappeared without reason. When I came, the place was a mess. I sold goods here for more than forty minutes before she came. What's wrong with me firing her? I said that her salary would be paid when the collective pay was due, but she grabbed me and wouldn't let go, looking like she wanted to eat me alive."
At this point, He Wenlin looked at her and said, "What do you want to do? Are you trying to hit me because I'm young?"
"Let her go right now." At this moment, a customer couldn't stand it anymore and came forward to pull Qiu Lili away.
"This is wrong of you. You can't be this casual no matter where you work."
"They didn't say they wouldn't pay you, you're just taking advantage of their young age."
"That's right, let that young girl go right now."
"If you keep doing this, I'm going to call the police."
...
Customers and supermarket staff quickly pulled Qiu Lili apart, standing between her and He Wenlin.
Age is a double-edged sword. Being young makes you vulnerable to being bullied, but it also makes you more likely to evoke others' protective instincts.
Seeing so many people protecting He Wenlin, Qiu Lili could only slink away.
After she left, everyone turned to comfort He Wenlin: "Little girl, don't be afraid. If you're right, you can go anywhere without fear."
"You're just a kid doing business, you're easily bullied. Where are your parents?"
"Yeah, where are your parents?"
...
"Thank you all for speaking up and helping out." He Wenlin bowed to everyone. "I'm not young anymore, and my parents have worked very hard. I also want to share some of the burden for my parents and family."
"What a sensible child."
"If my child were even half as sensible as this, I would be incredibly grateful."
...
The crowd discussed it animatedly for quite some time before dispersing.
He Wenlin went to the warehouse, loaded a shopping cart with goods, rearranged the display, and checked the time; it was already 8:30.
He Wenlin called Li Shulin to tell him that Lianhua Supermarket was going to reassign its sales promoters.
As a sales specialist, Li Shulin was provided with a phone by He Wenlin, and part of his phone bill could be reimbursed each month for easy communication.
Before the call even connected, a supermarket employee came over and said, "Boss, that woman just left. Are you hiring someone here?"
"Yes, Auntie, do you have a friend who can recommend one?"
"This is my cousin. How much does she earn here?"
"The base salary is ten yuan a day, and the commission is 30 cents for a box of peach shortbread and 15 cents for egg rolls. The more you sell, the more you earn. There are also benefits during holidays. As for working hours, it depends on the store's arrangements," He Wenlin said. "But I want someone who can open their mouth and shout to attract customers. I don't want introverted people who are too shy to shout. I also don't want people who are lazy, irresponsible, or lazy."
“My cousin can definitely do it. I’ll have her come tomorrow.”
"Okay, just tell her to talk to the supervisor. If the supervisor says it's okay, then it's okay."
After firing Qiu Lili, I also need to inform Manager Ma of the food section.
However, it was too late, and He Wenlin didn't want to bother Manager Ma, so she called Li Shulin and told him to follow up on the matter tomorrow.
He Wenlin had valuables, and given the poor security at this time of day, she didn't dare to take a taxi home alone so late.
I immediately called Mr. He, but no one answered the phone. I called several times in a row, but the same thing happened.
He Wenlin had no choice but to call Yang Gangyong and ask him to come and pick her up.
Just then, Yang Gangyong was driving He's mother back to her rented room in Caijiang Village, so the mother and daughter could go back together. However, the front of the car could only seat two people, so He Wenlin had to make do in the back.
The carriage wasn't cold, because He Wenlin was wearing many layers, and the carriage was covered with a thick, military-green cloth that was waterproof and windproof.
It wasn't cold, but it was tiring.
A small car is still necessary. What kind of boss would I be, crammed into the back of a truck?
It was almost 10 o'clock when I got back to my rented room in Caijiang Village.
Grandma, my younger brother, my second brother, and Shanshan are all asleep.
Since He's father wasn't home, He Wenlin and He's mother didn't think much of it.
After a long day, the mother and daughter quietly washed up and went to bed.
The next morning, just before six o'clock, when He Wenlin got up with her younger brother to read aloud, her father returned, looking unshaven and exhausted.
He reeked of smoke, and his eyes were bloodshot; he clearly hadn't slept all night.
"Dad, what's wrong with you? Didn't you sleep last night?"
As soon as He Wenlin finished speaking, He's mother excitedly put on her coat and rushed out of the bedroom: "You haven't come back all night? What have you been doing?"
Upon hearing this, He Wenlin had a bad feeling and asked excitedly, "Dad, did you go to play cards? Did you go to play cards with that group of people?"
