Chapter 119 Salary Doubled
Come to think of it, they are just strangers, why bother explaining more to them?
"Hello, the total amount you spent on these three sets of clothes is 23,536 yuan. Can you please pay by VX, ZFB, or credit card?"
Lin Nuan didn't even need to calculate to know that there was not enough money in her phone. Xiao Jingyan scanned the code without waiting for the cashier to finish asking the price.
"Boss Xiao, actually you only need to buy one set, or I'd better return two!"
Lin Nuan always felt that something was unreliable. She spent more than two months' salary to buy three sets of clothes. Although it was required for work and could be reimbursed, she still felt that it might be a scam.
Which boss would spend more than 20,000 to buy clothes for his assistant?
"Just keep it if you buy it. You will have to go out with me for social events in the future, and you can't just wear that outfit. Otherwise, our partners will think that our company's salary and benefits are too poor and we can't even afford to buy our employees a few decent clothes.
Don't worry, we let you buy these clothes because they are required for work. You don't have to spend money yourself. The company will pay for half of it and the remaining half will be deducted from your salary."
Lin Nuan knew that pie in the sky would not fall, and even if it did, it would not hit her. She finally got a promotion and a pay raise, but ended up buying a few sets of clothes and still had to use the salary to pay off debts.
Fortunately, the company is willing to bear half of the cost.
Thinking about her tight financial situation, she was really worried that Xiao Jingyan would ask the finance department to deduct all her salary for next month.
"Boss Xiao, can the money for buying clothes be deducted in installments? One month..."
At first she wanted to extend one finger, but under Xiao Jingyan's gaze, she gritted her teeth and extended a second finger.
"Deduct 2,000."
Seeing that Xiao Jingyan didn't say anything, I thought he felt that the deduction was not enough.
"I really can't deduct any more, otherwise I will really only be able to eat instant noodles next month."
Seeing her expression of disbelief, Xiao Jingyan really wanted to pry open her brain to see what she was thinking.
Anyway, she is now the general manager's assistant, with a base salary of about 15,000 yuan a month, not counting monthly bonuses. She also has some benefits for perfect attendance. He said it should be quite comfortable, but why does he feel like an intern clerk who only earns 5,000 or 6,000 yuan a month?
"Do you know how much you earn a month now?"
Lin Nuan didn't know why he asked that. To be honest, she really didn't know. When she went to the HR department to transfer to another position, the HR manager only told her that her salary would increase a little after becoming the general manager's assistant, but didn't say how much.
She used to be a nobody in the company, with a monthly salary of just over 7,000 yuan. The HR manager said it would be a little higher, and she thought it would only be around 1,000 yuan.
Now that Xiao Jingyan asked her, she naturally told the truth.
"It should be around 8,000, Mr. Song. I still owe my friend some money. I was planning to pay her back after I got my salary. 2,000 a month is really my limit. I can't take more. Otherwise, I don't want this dress anymore."
"Lin Nuan, as far as I know, you have been working in the company for several years. Do you have any misunderstandings about our company? After all, our company is a listed company. As a low-level employee before, I can understand that you felt that your salary was low, but now you are my assistant, and your salary can at least double now, you know?"
“Double,” Lin Nuan repeated in disbelief.
Is the salary of being an assistant to the general manager that high?
"Boss Xiao, you are not kidding, right?"
"You should have signed another contract after returning to the company. The salary in the contract should be clearly stated. Didn't you read it?"
Lin Nuan shook her head. She really didn’t pay attention at the time. After knowing that the company would not fire her and even promoted her, she was just happy. She signed the contract happily and didn’t pay attention to the salary at all.
Xiao Jingyan felt both angry and amused when he saw her expression as if she hadn't reacted yet.
"Okay, get in the car. When you get back, you'll know after you carefully read the contract you sent."
After returning to the company, Lin Nuan did not mention the clothes she bought to the company, but put them in the trunk of Xiao Jingyan's car. She thought that she would be attending the dinner with him in the evening anyway, and even if they had to go home together after the dinner, she simply did not take them.
The first thing she did when she returned to the company was to run back to her workstation and start looking through the contract she had previously signed with the company.
When I first saw the salary was 15,000, I was so happy that I almost jumped up.
Lin Nuan looked at the numbers on the contract excitedly and couldn't help laughing. She originally thought that a salary increase of 1,000 yuan was already very good, but she didn't expect it to be doubled! She immediately picked up her phone and sent a message to Shen Baozhu, telling her the good news and saying that she could pay the money back as soon as possible.
The two also agreed to go out for a good meal after receiving their salary.
He transferred the 10,000 yuan that Xiao Jingyan had previously transferred to him from his mobile phone to him again.
After all, the money was for buying clothes, and it was his money when the clothes were bought, so the money was not used. After sending it, he didn't check whether the payment was received for several minutes.
In addition, she couldn't wait to come back and look at the contract, so the two of them came back without even eating after buying clothes.
I immediately opened my phone and ordered two lunches on the APP.
Lin Nuan took a deep breath and went to Xiao Jingyan's office.
"Boss Xiao, I'm transferring the money you gave me to buy clothes to you. Don't forget to collect it. Also, can I pay the money for buying clothes in installments like I said before? I can deduct more, 3,000 per month. Do you think it's okay?"
"Okay, go to work."
"Okay, Mr. Xiao, thank you for accompanying me to buy clothes. Although it is for work, I am still very grateful to you. I have ordered lunch for you, and it will be here in about 30 minutes."
After Lin Nuan finished speaking, she turned around and left Xiao Jingyan's office.
Xiao Jingyan looked down at his phone. The page was full of food. He was just about to order takeout, but he hadn't decided what to eat yet. Now he didn't need to do that. He just turned off the phone and started working.
To express her gratitude, Lin Nuan ordered a richer meal, including a combination of meat and vegetables, two dishes and a soup, sweet and sour spare ribs, cumin eggplant, seaweed tomato and egg soup, and a fruit platter.
Her own dish was much simpler, just a clay pot rice.
Lin Nuan took the takeaway and delivered it directly to Xiao Jingyan's office.
Xiao Jingyan saw two dishes, a soup, a bowl of white rice, and a box of fruit on the table, but Lin Nuan was holding a packaging box in her hand.
"Most of my colleagues outside have already eaten and are back. I can't finish all this by myself. You should stay and eat with me! Otherwise it will be a waste."
Lin Nuan did not refuse. It was not like they had eaten together before. Besides, saving was a virtue and wasting was shameful.
