Jiang Xiaoli raised an index finger, "Actually, we've earned quite a bit this year. I think 100 million is a reasonable figure. It's about one-fifth of our after-tax net profit, and the reserved funds are enough for the company's working capital."
Chang Yue nodded and said, "Yes, this year's after-tax net profit is roughly this much."
Yan Chengcheng's eyes widened. "Wow, I've been so busy running around to the factories that I didn't even realize our company is making so much money now!"
Ren Zhiyi smiled and said, "I think this number is reasonable. What do you guys think?"
The three of them nodded in unison, and Yan Chengcheng said happily, "That's a lot, enough for my cat to eat and drink well!"
Jiang Xiaoli couldn't help but smile. "If your cat knew that you were working hard outside to earn money for their living expenses, how touched they would be!"
"Don't even mention it!" Yan Chengcheng complained. "Even the housekeepers I hired asked me what I was after, hiring two of them to take care of the cats, since I'm often away on business trips."
Hu Jingxin laughed heartily, "If you didn't keep a cat, you wouldn't need to hire two housekeepers to take turns, would you? Does this housekeeper think this salary is too easy to earn?"
"Haha, that's right! Who knows? Auntie might just be outspoken and speak without thinking," Yan Chengcheng replied with a laugh.
Jiang Xiaoli stretched and asked, "There's no cafeteria here now that the company has moved. How do you all eat lunch?"
Although "Yu-Chia Technology" had also moved here before, because she was pregnant, Zong-Chia delivered lunch to her almost every day at noon without fail, rain or shine, or went home to have lunch with her. She never asked about eating while working here.
Hu Jingxin immediately scratched her head in distress, "Don't even mention it, I'm losing hair just thinking about what to eat for lunch every day. Speaking of which, I really miss the cafeteria at the 'Jiang's Building'."
The other three had similar reactions to her. Ren Zhiyi sighed, "We've tried all the restaurants around here. Eating at a formal restaurant is too time-consuming, and the food at the small shops is... well, let's just say it's not great. It's really hard to choose."
Jiang Xiaoli thought for a moment, "Why don't we choose a restaurant to order meals and have them delivered on time every day, or hire a few chefs to provide nutritious lunches every day?"
Yan Chengcheng raised both hands in approval, "Xiao Li, your idea is great! I think we should do it!"
Ren Zhiyi also said, "The issue of meals here is also troubling the employees. Although I have given everyone an extra meal allowance, a delicious and nutritious lunch is still more practical."
Jiang Xiaoli nodded and said, "Okay, there are also 'Yujia Technology,' 'Jiang's Entertainment,' and 'Jincheng Real Estate' here. Leave this to me. My mom knew a lot of chefs when she joined the culinary school."
Hu Jingxin asked curiously, "Xiao Li, would chefs who join the culinary association be willing to cook meals for our staff?"
She shrugged and said, "Many amateur chefs join the culinary association because of their passion, but passion alone cannot support a family. Only a high-paying job can make them continue to pursue their passion for longer."
Ren Zhiyi nodded, "Okay, Xiaoli, I'm counting on you to make sure we have a decent lunch."
She smiled and said, "Okay, no problem."
Yan Chengcheng raised her hand timidly, "So what are we having for lunch today?"
Jiang Xiaoli waved her hand and said, "Let's go! Lunch is on me today, let's have a big meal!"
Arriving at a restaurant recommended by Hu Jingxin and her friends, she finally understood what they meant by "long dining time".
This restaurant clearly specializes in Chinese food, but the dishes are served one by one, with each dish only enough for two chopsticks. They ate from 12:10 pm to 2:30 pm.
After paying the bill, Chang Yue put her arm around her and asked, "Now you know why this place is so delicious, but we rarely come here, right? This place isn't for busy working folks like us."
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled lightly, "I can sense your resentment. Don't worry, I will definitely get the food delivery done as soon as possible."
After saying that, she turned to Ayu and said, "Chengcheng, I'm going to visit Ayu. Call me when you're done, and we'll go to your house to see the cats."
"Okay!" Yan Chengcheng gave her an OK sign.
Back at the "Jinghua Center", Jiang Xiaoli waved goodbye to the others in the elevator.
Stepping out of the elevator, the "Yu Jia Technology" logo comes into view. It was designed by Quan Wenyan, and it is beautiful, grand and technologically advanced. Zong Jia paid for it with a house in Kyoto.
She paused for a while before turning left to go to Zong Jiayu's office.
She had just walked past the front desk when a girl called out to her, "Hey, who are you looking for?"
Jiang Xiaoli pointed at her nose with a strange expression. "Are you asking me?"
"Oh right? This floor is the office area for our group's senior executives. Who are you looking for? Who brought you up here?" the receptionist continued to ask.
She picked up the elevator card and waved it, "I'm looking for your boss."
The receptionist's eyes widened immediately. "Aren't you people annoying? Our boss and his wife have a great relationship. They're married and have children. Can't you young women have any morals?"
Jiang Xiaoli was somewhat surprised, "Are you implying that many people come to your boss under various pretexts?"
"Of course! Don't even think about it. Our boss's wife is a million times better than you!"
She was about to say something when someone rushed over from behind and covered her mouth.
The man greeted her with a smile, “Chairman Jiang, it’s been a long time! You look great! The boss is in a meeting downstairs. Please wait in your office while I go and inform him.”
Jiang Xiaoli nodded and smiled at the embarrassed receptionist. "It's okay, don't panic. I'm not a man-eating tiger. Besides, you've been defending me the whole time, haven't you?"
The receptionist immediately bowed deeply at a 90-degree angle, "Ms. Jiang, I'm so sorry, I didn't recognize you just now. It was my fault for not doing my job properly..."
She waved her hand dismissively, "It's okay, I'll remember next time."
She had been sitting in the office for less than 10 minutes when Zong Jiayu returned.
He laughed and tossed the documents in his hand onto the desk, saying, "I thought you guys were going to talk for a long time."
"We finished chatting this morning." Jiang Xiaoli pouted. "Boss Zong is doing really well these days, isn't he? Lots of girls are throwing themselves at him, right?"
Zong Jia had already learned about the misunderstanding before entering the office.
He sat down on the sofa and coaxed, "The sun and moon can bear witness, my heart is set on Little Pear, no one else can even catch my eye."
She turned around and reached out her index finger to touch his chin. "Tsk tsk, back in school, just this face of yours was enough to make people fight over you. Now that you're a big boss, I can understand why you have even more admirers."
