Song Lili was waiting for Qian Liulin to come to her, but unexpectedly, Qian Liulin didn't come; instead, Lin Xue did.
"Sister-in-law, are you home?" Lin Xue walked in, carrying a handbag and wearing a dress.
Song Lili couldn't bear to look at Lin Xue's curly hair, thick makeup, and her blood-red "mouth" that looked like it could devour someone.
"What brings you here today?" Forcing herself to look away from Lin Xue's face and focus only on her neck, Song Lili was finally able to speak normally.
"Oh, today, I was thinking of taking a day off. You know, I'm working myself to the bone every day, I need to rest, right?" Lin Xue walked in, sat on a stool in the yard, and placed her purse on the table.
"We should rest more. We earn money to live a better life. We shouldn't become slaves to money, only knowing how to make money and forgetting about life itself."
“That makes sense. We make money so we can live a better life.” Lin Xue agreed with Song Lili and thought it made a lot of sense.
"Sister-in-law, you haven't been to the shop lately?" Lin Xue asked, curious about Song Lili's leisurely demeanor.
Song Lili nodded, "Yes, I haven't been to the store for almost a week." She had just gone to see it a few days ago. There was no need to keep going; it was a waste of time and quite tiring.
"Are you really okay with this? Aren't you afraid they'll lie to their superiors?" Lin Xue stared in surprise, unable to believe that Song Lili had really let go like this.
"No way, there are so many people in the store, how could they?" Besides, even if they wanted to, they'd have to be able to!
In a store with so many employees, it's impossible for all of them to have the same idea. If even one person has a different idea, the difficulty of the matter will increase.
Besides, Song Lili felt that her salary was quite high. In the capital, Song Lili wouldn't dare say it was the highest, but she dared to say it was good.
Who would give up a well-paying and stable job to do something that might not even be rewarding?
There are very few people like that, aren't there?
Besides, what's the point of doing this? It's just about money, right? But the accountant is still there!
As long as Song Lili checks on things from time to time, nothing serious will happen.
"Of course you can. Let me tell you, people these days are so cunning. If you're not careful, you'll get fooled."
Lin Xue disagreed with Song Lili's statement, feeling that Song Lili was just careless, simply abandoning the shop she had worked so hard to build.
Little did they know that Song Lili's use of modern management methods was not only scientific but also more efficient.
She was just looking at Song Lili through her own eyes, through her own world, and then she thought... this person must be stupid.
"No, people are still very simple and honest." Compared to people in a society with rapid information development, people today don't have as many ulterior motives.
Having seen and known so little, one doesn't have as many distractions and can focus on their work.
"Sister-in-law, I only see the good side of you, but I haven't seen the cunning side of them."
"Let me tell you, if you suddenly go to the store for an inspection one day, you'll discover a lot of things you didn't know," Lin Xue said with a sigh.
This was also based on her own experience. Because of some family matters, she didn't go to work for two days. After handling the matter relatively easily, she went to work early.
Unexpectedly, I saw a side of myself that I wouldn't normally see, and heard things I'd never heard before.
"How come I've never noticed? I often pop into the store unexpectedly!" Song Lili exclaimed in surprise. Were all her employees that nice?
"Didn't find it? That's impossible. They have so many complaints. They complain about the low pay, the lack of rest, and so on."
“You know, I hired you to do the work. If everything is free, then what’s the point of hiring you? I’m not just throwing money away.”
Lin Xue felt bad when she talked about it. If she weren't so busy, she really wouldn't want to hire anyone.
It was only then that Song Lili realized that what she had been talking about with Lin Xue was not just idle chatter.
She had never actually encountered any of the things Lin Xue described.
Song Lili was no longer listening lazily and casually; she looked at Lin Xue with a slightly serious expression.
Song Lili does not believe that this is entirely the employees' fault; any reaction will lead to a certain outcome.
There must be a cause for a result, and this cause may lie with Lin Xue.
Thinking about what Lin Xue had just said, Song Lili asked tentatively, "How much salary do you pay them per month?"
"It's only a little over a hundred, the same as outside." Lin Xue said with some pride; she was now someone who could pay other people's salaries.
Song Lili: "..." Only a little over a hundred.
"Do you know how much my employees earn?" Song Lili asked quietly.
"How much?" Lin Xue was taken aback before casually asking.
"My base salary is 200 a month. With bonuses, full attendance bonuses, etc., I can earn at least 300 a month."
The person who earns the least in her shop each month earns twice as much as Lin Xue's employees. No wonder she looks down on them.
"What? How could you give so much? It's only a hundred outside now, this is already a lot." Lin Xue jumped up in surprise, unable to believe what she had just heard.
"Not much. They work long hours, so the hourly wage is only a few dollars more than theirs."
Hot pot restaurants don't operate on a 9-to-5 schedule; staff typically work for more than ten hours a day.
If the salary weren't high, probably very few people would be willing to do this kind of demanding work.
"How can it not be high? It's very high. Look at my shop, the hours are about the same as yours, and the salary is only a little over a hundred."
Lin Xue's shop also serves food, so the working hours are long.
Song Lili: "..." Now that's how it is, people have even more reason to dislike you!
Song Lili has already discovered Lin Xue's problem.
"Tell me, do you often hire people for your shop?" Song Lili asked with some certainty.
Lin Xue nodded, "Yes, I don't know why, but many people quit after a few months. In my area, there are only one or two people who have worked there for a long time."
"I'm also having a headache over this problem. Why can't people just settle down and do their jobs properly?"
"What kind of high-paying job are you looking for? The salary is the same. What's wrong with working anywhere?"
Song Lili was speechless again. The salary was the same, but the hours were shorter. Who would be willing to torture themselves by working for such a long time?
Everyone chooses the easy way out; who wouldn't want that?
Those who stayed probably really needed the job.
"But do you know what? Very few people leave my shop, and every year there are recent college graduates who come to work for me."
Song Lili didn't know if her class had set a precedent by not accepting the assigned work.
In recent years, there have been college graduates working in hot pot restaurants, starting from the most basic clerk positions.
After gaining experience, these people will all be promoted to management positions.
