"You think you know everything? Who do you think you are? You're just a regular employee, not even a team leader, let alone a manager or factory director. You even offered to introduce the workshop to the boss, but the manager just rolled his eyes at him and stopped him."
"No need, you go back and get back to work. We'll take care of things here with the boss."
The person who could get Yu Jiu and Xu Zi to appoint as manager and oversee factory affairs must be a shrewd individual. He knew that Yu Jiu wasn't familiar with this junior employee who was trying to climb the corporate ladder, otherwise he wouldn't have acted this way, and he didn't dare to stop Liu Ye.
"No, the boss has come all this way, and I'm a factory employee, how can I not treat him well?"
Liu Ye said with a smile, assuming that he was the owner here and should be the host. Yu Jiu suddenly raised her hand, signaling the people around her to be quiet. She wanted to see what Liu Ye was up to.
"Lead the way."
She said it concisely, but since she had given him the opportunity, Liu Ye was already very satisfied. He immediately bent down and extended his hand, pretending to be a gentleman.
"Alright, let's go."
He wasn't willing to miss this opportunity, so he put in a lot of effort to explain the factory's situation to Yu Jiu. He actually managed to get a pretty good grasp of it, speaking fluently and logically, showing he was quite intelligent. After this whole presentation, he didn't embarrass himself at all, and the people around Yu Jiu gradually began to respect him. Even if a capable person likes to show off a little, everyone can tolerate it to some extent.
After this inspection, Yu Jiu was quite satisfied with the factory's situation. Everyone was working diligently and methodically. Even when she and Xu Zijiang were not around, few people slacked off, since it was piecework. If they slacked off, firstly, the employees wouldn't have much money left, and secondly, the manager was doing a good job, keeping the factory in good order.
"Alright, that's enough for today. You guys go back to work. I'm leaving."
Yu Jiu nodded in satisfaction, indicating that everyone could leave. She had driven here today; she had learned to drive, which would make it much more convenient for her to go anywhere in the future.
"Boss, since you're already here, why don't you join us for a meal? You've been on patrol for so long and walked so far, you must be tired. Let us treat you to a meal."
"Yes, yes, boss, it's lunchtime, let's have a meal together."
The manager was very satisfied with Liu Ye's suggestion. He also wanted to treat Yu Jiu to a meal and curry favor with her. However, he didn't have the same intention as Liu Ye, who wanted to live off her. He simply wanted to get closer to Yu Jiu and consolidate his position so that if he did something wrong, Yu Jiu wouldn't turn her back on him and kick him out immediately.
He didn't want to gamble on that possibility.
"No need, I have something to do, so I'll leave first. You guys eat together."
Yu Jiu shook her head, refusing to stay. She drove off without stopping. Liu Ye's eyes gleamed even more intently as he watched her drive away in her car. She was so rich! If he married her, he wouldn't have to struggle anymore; he'd have a house, a car, and a factory—this was the life he wanted!
Liu Ye's eyes revealed his ambition, which he could no longer hide. The manager was also a man who had been through this age, so he knew what Liu Ye was thinking. Seeing that Liu Ye was still thinking clearly today, he gave him a piece of advice.
"I advise you not to make a move on Boss Yu. She has a family, a husband and children, and a harmonious and loving family. If you want to find a rich woman, you can get to know a few more, or ask the boss to introduce you to a couple. Just don't make a move on her."
Her husband, Boss Xu, is not someone to be trifled with. If you really piss him off, he could break your legs without a problem.
He offered some well-intentioned advice, but Liu Ye remained stubborn and wouldn't listen. Since that was the case, the manager stopped trying to persuade him and decided to ignore him.
So, in order to see Yu Jiu, he didn't resign and stayed. However, Yu Jiu only visited the factory once and wouldn't go there often anymore.
Liu Ye waited for several days but Yu Jiu didn't come, so he took leave and went to the pastry shop to find his aunt. He and his aunt were only a little over 10 years apart, and they could easily be mistaken for siblings.
"Liu Ye, what brings you here? Don't you have any work to do today?"
Sun Yu was a little puzzled. Why did he come to her side? This nephew was a real headache for the family. He was neither good enough for high-level jobs nor good enough for low-level ones, and he couldn't hold down any job for long.
"Are you trying to tell me again that you don't want to work anymore? You've only been gone a short while! Can't you just hang in there a little longer? Everyone works, right? Are you going to go back to your parents and live off them for the rest of your life? Where are your parents going to get that kind of money to live off you?"
Sun Yu was angry and scolded him harshly. Liu Ye's parents were his older sister and brother-in-law. They had spent an unknown amount of money on their son since he was a child, but now that he was grown up, he not only didn't repay his parents, but also continued to spend their money. They had a whole family to support; how could they keep supporting him forever?
On her birthday, she couldn't help but feel sorry for her older sister and brother-in-law. What kind of mess did they make? Liu Ye smiled and waited for her to finish scolding before shamelessly snuggling up to her.
"Oh, Auntie, I just came to see you today to take a break. I didn't say I was quitting. I'm doing great there, I really like the job, and I'll definitely stay long-term. Don't worry, don't be angry."
He coaxed her, and Sun Yu was skeptical.
"real?"
"Of course it's true. If you keep thinking like that about me, I'm going to get angry. Even if I don't want to resign, I'm going to resign anyway."
"No, no, no, it's good that you don't think that way. It's my fault. Come on, sit down quickly, I'll buy you some snacks."
Upon hearing this, Sun Yu immediately apologized to him and weighed out some pastries for him to eat. Liu Ye ate while asking questions.
"Auntie, do you have to pay for snacks too?"
"What else? This is someone else's shop, not ours. Why should we let you eat snacks for free? These things are expensive, you know. The last employee who was fired was for stealing food and alcohol. I'm not going to do something that stupid."
Sun Yu is a principled person, and Yu Jiu valued this quality in her, so she rarely patrolled this shop; they usually patrolled the other shops.
"Okay, what about the boss? Isn't the boss coming?"
Liu Ye dawdled before finally asking about Yu Jiu. Sun Yu didn't catch anything in the conversation. She ate some snacks while casually chatting with Liu Ye.
"No, they're the bosses. How could they possibly come back to work here? At most, they'd come occasionally to check the accounts. I heard that this couple might be doing it. They're about to open their 10th shop, and they also have a clothing factory."
"You know, I wouldn't even say you have half the ability of others. If you could just open a shop, your parents and I would be more than satisfied!"
Sun Yu poked Liu Ye's head again, sounding exasperated. Liu Ye lowered his head, somewhat resentful. If she didn't come here, how was he supposed to bump into her?
"Auntie, do you know where she lives?"
"I know, she lives in a small alley not far from here, but she should be moving away soon. I heard last time that she bought a house, and the one in the alley is rented."
Sun Yu was chatting with her nephew when her nephew couldn't wait to ask a question.
"Really? Which alley?"
