As early as during the interviews, Zhao Qinglan asked the military family members who came to apply if they were willing to go to other places for training if they were hired.
After learning that the training location was not far away and the time spent there would not be long, not a single military family member backed down because of this requirement.
When the assembly day arrived, Zhao Qinglan led the dozen or so selected new employees to the two stores in the military-civilian joint area.
After learning that Zhao Qinglan was taking her family members to regional training, the military region kindly provided a military vehicle.
The military region was originally scheduled to transport some supplies to its subordinate units in the region in a few days, but now they've set off ahead of schedule to take Zhao Qinglan and the others with them.
These ten or so people certainly wouldn't go to the same store. Half of them were assigned to each of the two stores, and the experienced employees of those stores trained them to get started.
Wu Mei also met with the subordinates she would be managing in the future.
After everyone was settled, Zhao Qinglan started chatting with Wu Mei.
"Sister-in-law, if you haven't found a place to stay yet, you can stay at my place for now. I have plenty of empty rooms."
Wu Mei smiled and shook her head. "No need. After my husband Sun Wen found out I was going to work in the provincial capital, he looked at some houses outside. It just so happened that someone in his workplace had a vacant house to rent out, so he rented it for me."
"That's great. Sun Yat-sen has made something of himself now," Zhao Qinglan said sincerely.
Mentioning her eldest son, Wu Mei, brought a smile to her face. "Yes, he's grown up so fast, and he can help out at home now. In a few years, when my second son and Jiajia graduate, my husband and I will be able to finally let go of our responsibilities."
"Sister-in-law, you'll be able to make it in just a few years, but it will take me many more years," Zhao Qinglan said with a hint of envy.
"Why are you in such a hurry? I envy your youth. Time really flies. In the blink of an eye, I'm old."
"Young? That's true," Zhao Qinglan laughed as she thought of her legendary experiences.
Who else can look back to their youthful days decades ago like her?
In an instant, she no longer envied Wu Mei. Being able to accumulate beautiful memories with her daughter and husband little by little was also a kind of happiness.
Zhao Qinglan also arranged food and accommodation for the military family members who participated in the training, so that they didn't have to worry about anything after joining the company.
Of course, Zhao Qinglan doesn't do mindless charity. Only those who pass the training can officially start working. She prioritizes providing job opportunities for military families, but she also wants these people to live up to the opportunities she gives them.
During the training, she would visit the two stores every day to check on their situation, and the rest of the time she was quite free.
During this time, Zhang Yu also contacted her.
After his two babies turned one month old, Zhang Yu went south to Shenzhen.
Song Yi wanted to go with the children, but they were too young and she was worried about the bumpy ride, so she decided to stay in Beijing for the time being.
Fortunately, Song Yi got along well with her parents-in-law, and even her sister-in-law Zhang Qing was a good friend, so living at home with the children wasn't too difficult.
However, she plans to take the children south when they are a little older.
When Zhang Yu contacted Zhao Qinglan, his two babies had just turned 100 days old, and Song Yi was planning to take the children south before the weather got cold.
Zhang Yu called Zhao Qinglan to ask if she wanted to go to Shenzhen as well and join them.
That's right. When his children were 100 days old, he returned to the capital, and then he went south with his wife and children.
Although Zhang's parents were very reluctant to part with their grandchildren, they could not stop their son's family from reuniting, and could only reluctantly let them leave.
Zhao Qinglan thought that she hadn't been to Shenzhen for quite a while, so she agreed.
The wife had originally moved to another region to avoid those trying to curry favor with her husband, but after returning, she only stayed for a few days before taking people to the region for training.
Li Huai had thought that his wife would come back once the training was almost over, but unexpectedly, his good friend had run off to Shenzhen again.
He wasn't against his wife running around doing business, after all, she was doing it for their family, but he still harbored some resentment, especially towards his good friend Zhang Yu, who had run off with his wife.
Zhang Yu kept feeling like someone was talking about his red ears, and he would sneeze from time to time, which made Song Yi think he had a cold and she didn't dare let him get too close to the children.
When Zhao Qinglan went south to Shenzhen again, she found that the city had changed a lot each time she visited.
During this visit, she also made a special trip to see the houses she had reserved for herself.
Under Zhang Yu's management, the houses she kept for herself have been simply renovated and furnished with the necessary furniture, making them convenient for both personal use and rental.
However, Zhao Qinglan has no plans to rent out these houses for the time being. She doesn't need the rent money now, and she's also worried that the tenants might mess up her new houses.
It would have been fine if she hadn't come to Shenzhen, but since she did, Zhang Yu dragged her along to complete a lot of official business.
Since the success of their previous real estate project, their company has reached a new level, and now Zhang Yu has acquired two more plots of land.
He had put the development on hold due to many family matters, but after the children turned one month old, he came over and had already completed most of the preliminary work. Now, he is going to make specific plans for the future.
Zhao Qinglan met many people and attended many internal and external meetings with Zhang Yu.
In fact, many people in the company still had some doubts about Zhao Qinglan, this mysterious CEO.
Zhao Qinglan's appearance and her few speeches this time have impressed many people.
Zhao Qinglan was also glad that she had done her homework. Even though she wasn't here much, she was still very familiar with the company's various businesses and progress. Her own self-improvement and professional development had also been a great help.
As she was about to leave Shenzhen, Zhang Yu told her that there was a banquet to attend that evening and that she should get ready.
This banquet attracted many Hong Kong and Taiwanese businessmen, as well as representatives of foreign businesses and overseas Chinese. They were able to make many connections, which might come in handy in the future.
Zhao Qinglan naturally wouldn't refuse, and even looked forward to the banquet.
In her past life, before Wang Dazhi kicked her out of the Wang family, she also served as a tool to accompany the now successful Wang Dazhi to some events and banquets, so she knew some things.
To attend the banquet, she went out and bought an expensive long dress as an evening gown, along with corresponding accessories and shoes.
When she came to Shenzhen, she thought it would be too much trouble, so she didn't bring too many things with her, thinking that it would be very convenient to buy anything she needed in Shenzhen.
After purchasing the necessary equipment for the banquet, she also went to a relatively high-end hair salon in Shenzhen on Song Yi's recommendation. After communicating with the hairstylist, she got a suitable hairstyle.
Before the banquet, Zhang Yu arrived at the hair salon in a company car to pick her up, and was momentarily stunned when he saw her.
"How is it, Mr. Zhang? Do you think my outfit is acceptable?" Zhao Qinglan asked with a smile.
"Great, really great." Zhang Yu gave a thumbs up.
