The unscrupulous capitalist Jiang Xiaoli not only did not exploit her employees, but she also had Wei Dong approve funds to purchase new labor protection equipment for the workshop workers.
After finishing her work, while having lunch in the canteen, she suggested, "Our workers work in three shifts now, so let's have the canteen provide four meals a day, plus a late-night snack."
Wei Dong happily agreed, "Little Pear, I've never seen a boss more generous than you."
After finishing the last bite of her meal, Jiang Xiaoli put down her chopsticks. "Uncle Wei, the prerequisite for improving employee benefits is that our factory is doing well. We need to work even harder."
“That’s right!” Wei Dong nodded. “Xiao Li, I’ll go back and talk to the head of the personnel department about recruitment!”
Zong Jia watched his departing figure and sighed, "Uncle Wei has barely had any rest lately. Our factory's leadership team is still lacking. We need to promote some people as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaoli asked him, "You've been taking Han Xue out with you lately, what do you think of her?"
He recalled Han Xue's performance, saying, "She is meticulous and adaptable in her work, and she is also good at dealing with people."
"That's great." Jiang Xiaoli smiled and patted his shoulder. "We need manpower right now, so we should delegate authority when necessary. Otherwise, if we try to do everything ourselves like Uncle Wei, we'll exhaust ourselves."
Zong Jia chuckled; he truly dared not relax, lest he mess things up and lose her trust.
He agreed, "Okay, I'll adapt slowly and adjust my work schedule accordingly."
The two went to Zong Jiayu's office, where Jiang Xiaoli discussed with him, "Brother Dafu is coming back from Sichuan Province next week, and I'd like to appoint him as the head of the sales department. What do you think?"
Zong Jia tapped his fingers lightly on the table a few times. "You mean you want him to lead the training of the sales team?"
“Yes.” She nodded. “Dafu’s sales performance is really good, but I still want him to grow as quickly as possible. It doesn’t matter if one person’s sales performance is good. What we need is for the entire sales department to achieve results. What do you think?”
Zong Jia hesitated for a moment, "It's not that I don't think highly of Dafu, but as he himself said, I'm not sure if he can do a good job."
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and said, "The sales department is the most important department in our factory right now. The people we need not only have outstanding abilities, but also have to be 100% trustworthy. Who else do you think could it be besides Brother Dafu?"
"Hehe." Zong Jia chuckled. "I was overthinking it, Little Pear. Since you're willing to give him a chance, I'll give him some pointers in private."
"Yes, yes, that's good to hear." She had Zong Jiayu completely under her control.
Next, she and Zong Jiayu discussed all the problems existing in each department of the food factory, the directions that need to be improved, and the goals they wanted to achieve in the future.
Finally, Zong Jia put down his pen and said, "My preliminary estimate is that these problems can be resolved by the eve of the Lunar New Year."
"Reliable! I trust you with this matter." Jiang Xiaoli nodded in satisfaction, then changed the subject, "I'm going on a business trip with Uncle Xiao to another city soon, so I'll have to trouble you and Uncle Wei with things at the food factory."
Zong Jia raised an eyebrow, "Business trip?"
She took a sip of water from her cup. "Yes, I estimate it will take one to two weeks. I'll also take this opportunity to see if there are any new things outside that would be suitable for our factory."
Hearing that she would be away for such a long time, Zong Jiayu paused for a moment, then said with concern, "Be careful while you're away. Uncle Xiao is a man, and he might not be able to take care of you in some ways. Let me know you've arrived safely at your hotel."
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll definitely call home when I get to a new place, and I'll call you too. If there are any problems at the factory, we can talk about it over the phone."
Zong Jiayu immediately knew she had misunderstood. "Don't worry about the factory. Uncle Wei and I are here."
"That's good. It's almost 6 o'clock. Do you have anything else to do? Shall we go home for dinner?" She got up and started packing her things.
Zong Jia chuckled upon hearing this, "It's alright, I'll tell Han Xue and then we'll go home."
When they got home, Li Guizhi had already prepared the meal, and Xiao Muyu was also there.
Jiang Xiaoli nudged her arm, "Where are Uncle Xiao and Auntie? Did you invite them over for dinner?"
Xiao Muyu shrugged helplessly, "They went out on a date and abandoned me."
"Hahaha!" she burst out laughing. "Xiaoyu, do you know what this is?"
"What?"
Jiang Xiaoli winked at her and said, word by word, "That's what you call parents being true love and the child being an accident! Haha!"
Xiao Muyu wrinkled her nose. "What you said actually makes some sense."
Jiang Xiaoli put her arm around her shoulder and said, "Before, your auntie would cook for you and take care of you at home. Now that we live across the hall, I think this kind of scene will happen many more times in the future. You should be mentally prepared."
Li Guizhi couldn't help but roll her eyes at her, "You're always stirring up trouble. Xiaoyu, don't listen to her nonsense. Your parents aren't home, so come over anytime. You're always welcome at my house."
Xiao Muyu smiled and nodded, "Auntie, I know, but I won't listen to her!"
Jiang Xiaoli glanced at the two of them and thought they looked more like a mother and daughter. She gave Zong Jiayu a look and said, "Zong Jiayu, if my mom ever tries to keep Xiaoyu as her daughter and kicks me out of the house, you'll have to take me in!"
Zong Jia smiled and ladled a bowl of soup for her. "That won't do. I'm on the same side as my godmother."
"Haha." Li Guizhi laughed, pointing at her daughter, "Serves you right for being so smug!"
Jiang Xiaoli looked very hurt. "The world is so big, yet there's nowhere for me to belong. How pathetic! How lamentable!"
The three of them completely ignored her performance and started eating, passing food to each other.
She pouted and started eating, saying, "Leave some food for me!"
After the meal, Li Guizhi packed her things to go to class, saying, "You guys can clean up the kitchen now."
Jiang Xiaoli gave her an OK sign, "Don't worry, I'll handle it."
After closing the door, Zong Jiayu went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, saying, "You two watch TV."
After he finished tidying up and came out, Jiang Xiaoli took out a deck of cards and suggested, "Since we have nothing else to do, how about the three of us play cards for a while?"
Zong Jia agreed, "Sure, how do we play?"
Xiao Muyu tugged at her sleeve, "I don't know how, can you teach me?"
Jiang Xiaoli explained the rules of Dou Dizhu to her, and Xiao Muyu seemed to understand, albeit somewhat confused.
Zong Jia suddenly realized, "It's two against one."
“Yes.” She dealt the cards directly. “Let’s try two rounds first.”
Xiao Muyu quickly figured out how to play Dou Dizhu and excitedly reported, "Let's officially begin now!"
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled, "Now that we're officially starting, there will be punishments!"
Zong Jiayu smiled and looked at her, "Little Pear, how do you want to punish her?"
Her eyes darted around. "How about we stick sticky notes on each other's chins? The loser gets a note stuck on their chin, and the person who loses the most has to get up early tomorrow morning to buy breakfast for everyone. What do you say?"
