Chapter 870 Outing (19)



The little fox was babbling incoherently, but its tongue quickly licked up a spoonful of wine.

Only then did Yan Xiaonan raise her glass, admiring the golden wine. She brought the glass to her lips and took a sip; it tasted very sweet.

But this sweetness is just the initial taste; gradually you can also taste the flavors of honeyed citrus, apricot, cinnamon, and clove, as well as a sweetness similar to honey and nectar.

Of course, the refreshing acidity always balances perfectly with the remaining sugar, and more importantly, it has an outstanding aging potential; this wine is already a century old.

Thinking back to my past life with Moutai liquor, a bottle of Moutai produced in the 1960s could fetch over 100,000 yuan, so this bottle of aged wine must be quite expensive now.

Lu Tiantian tentatively held out one palm and said, "Grandpa, is 50,000 yuan enough?"

Ye Ren smiled. He had a really good eye; he guessed the price of the wine right away.

While the grandfather and grandson were talking on the table, Zhang Jun had already stopped thinking. He hadn't expected the old patriarch to be so generous.

He never expected the young patriarch to be so capable. He remembered what Ye Er had said: a granddaughter-in-law who could win the favor of the old patriarch must have something extraordinary about her.

He has now discovered Yan Xiaonan's second side. Zhang Jun is unaware that he has been captivated by Yan Xiaonan and is eager to see her third and fourth sides.

A single meal could cost around 70,000 to 80,000 silver dollars, something Grandma Yan and her family were already used to; there were plenty of cases of people spending lavishly at clubs in Beijing.

But Zhang Jun, Zhang Min, and her boyfriend Thorne can no longer think in a normal way.

Zhang Jun, in particular, felt a little breathless when he saw the Yan family—no, I mean, the wealthy family—who seemed to take the price of this meal for granted.

Fortunately, Ye'er wasn't there, otherwise she would definitely have blushed for her man. She had seen the old patriarch spend money like water when she was a child.

The afternoon is for rest and study. The whole villa is so quiet that some people are sleeping and others are reading.

Led by Zhang Jun, Yan Xiaonan went to the company, where there were still many things to do.

As soon as Yan Xiaonan entered the company, many people nodded to her, already knowing that this young woman was their real boss.

Yan Xiaonan looked at the compiled report, sat down at Ye Er's desk, and carefully considered what to do next.

Hamburg's labor laws are different from those in Xia Country, so Yan Xiaonan first asked Ye Er to invite a lawyer over.

Ye Chenming nodded repeatedly. He had almost forgotten this most important thing after not being in Germany for so many years.

The lawyer arrived quickly; that's the good thing about Germany—if you have enough money, you'll get things done quickly.

Ye Chenming explained his needs to the lawyer in detail, and the lawyer took out a small calculator and began to calculate.

Legal fees are calculated by the hour. A preliminary estimate is that it will take at least twelve hours and at most fifteen hours to handle everything here.

Ye Chenming readily signed a 15-hour employment contract with the lawyer, at 500 marks per hour, and received an advance payment for five hours.

In an era when the average worker earned five or six thousand marks a month, five hundred marks an hour was considered a high price.

But high prices have their advantages; this lawyer is already a perennial winner in the law firm.

The first step was to resolve the issue of all current employees, so Ye Er presented all their labor contracts.

First, we selected the contracts that were due to expire at the end of this month. According to labor law, we gave them half a month's notice in advance, which was just the right amount of time.

Half an hour later, the employees who had received notice that their contracts were expiring and would not be renewed all came to the office door.

Ye Er had already posted the prepared notice on the office door. The reason was simple and realistic: due to poor management, the company was facing bankruptcy and would have to close down at the end of the month.

In fact, all the employees knew they would face this day, but their "get by" mentality kept them stuck in their positions.

Only after the official notification of the transfer did I anxiously begin to look for a second job.

They put forward a representative who was required to be two hours late every day at noon, and sent them to find jobs.

Ye'er readily agreed, reasoning that sitting here was a waste of time and it would be better to go out and find a job.

The lawyer wrote down what needed to be done the next day in a memo, told Ye Chenming what they needed to prepare for the next day, and then left.

Yan Xiaonan checked the time; exactly four hours had passed. It seemed this lawyer was quite reliable.

Tomorrow will be for negotiations with employees whose contracts haven't expired or who have just signed new contracts.

In addition to their due wages, they also need to receive some compensation; otherwise, they will be in violation of labor laws and face hefty fines.

Yer instructed people to group together contracts of the same type from the same day, since each job was different and the bargaining chips were different.

Once they have sorted out the items, the lawyer will offer a certain amount of compensation. If the employees disagree, they can unilaterally terminate the contract.

They were busy until 6 p.m., and just as Yan Xiaonan and the others were about to leave, Hans, the owner of the hamburger shop, walked in with three middle-aged men.

Ye Chenming recognized the other person at a glance and quickly shook hands with him warmly. Hans also warmly introduced Ye Chenming to his friends.

Ye'er didn't understand what was going on, but he obediently led the group to visit the factory.

The group discovered that to tour the factory, they had to ride in an electric cart, which showed just how large the factory was.

They didn't need such a large area, but Hans gave them a good idea.

Let a few people plan it out, and then rent out the extra space. Maybe they can even save on their own rent.

Several people's eyes lit up. What a brilliant idea this was! So they came to rent the land with a winning mentality.

It took nearly half an hour to get a rough look around the factory in the electric cart. There was equipment and supplies in the factory, but they didn't need them.

Ye Chenming stated that the equipment had already been arranged and would be moved within half a month, and the supplies were also items to be shipped out, but there were basically not enough supplies to ship out.

"Boss, give me a price. What's the lowest price you can offer if we rent the whole thing?" Hans asked.

"It depends on the lease term. The longer you lease, the lower the rent. Our lease terms start at five years," Ye Chenming replied.

Hans and his friends laughed. They hoped to rent for eight or ten years, with a minimum of five years, which was perfectly acceptable.

"For more than ten years, the rent is 20,000 marks per month. The rent will remain unchanged for the first three years, and will increase every three years according to the local rental price." Ye Chenming repeated what the lawyer had told him.
