âThank you, Yang,â
âI also toast to Yang,â
Zhang Dan quickly followed her boyfriendâs lead and raised her glass.
Although the job of a cashier couldnât be considered a good job, Zhang Dan was aware of her situation. As a high school graduate without any particular skills, it was unrealistic for her to expect a high-end job.
According to what her cousin Zhang Mei described, a monthly salary of five thousand was already not low. Adding in her boyfriendâs monthly salary of eight thousand, the two of them could have thirteen thousand a month, and Yang had even helped solve the housing problem.
For migrant workers like them, this was simply a dream start.
Besides, working at Yangâs company meant she didnât have to worry about being bullied as a newcomer.
âWork hard. You both are still young. Apart from working, spend time learning and enriching yourselves. Your current jobs are just a starting point,â
Yang Hao took a sip of his drink and earnestly advised.
In the future, his enterprises would grow, and naturally, he would need many âinsiders.â People like Jiang Xiaohai, the âlittle brother-in-law,â could be cultivated. If their character and abilities were decent, they could be promoted to manage. They might not be equipped to handle big corporate management, but overseeing smaller, scattered industries wouldnât be an issue.
âDonât worry, Yang, we will definitely work hard,â
Jiang Xiaohai promptly declared his stance, showing he was quite shrewd despite not being highly educated. He had heard Yang Haoâs intention to cultivate them between the lines.
After dinner, Yang Hao did some exercise at home.
He had been quite disciplined with his diet recently, sticking to low-fat and low-calorie foods, combined with proper fitness activities, resulting in a steady decrease in weight. The only issue was the smaller the base number, the slower the weight loss.
In the maidâs room.
Jiang Xiaohai and Zhang Dan were both very excited. The former reported to his mother back in his hometown about Yangâs help with arranging jobs and accommodation, while the latter was in a voice chat with her cousin Zhang Mei.
âA five thousand a month cashier job, thatâs very good,â
âThe cashiers in our hotel only make three thousand eight hundred a month, and they only get four days off.â
âDandan, youâre really lucky. When I first arrived in Jiangcheng, I started off as a waitress, earning only 3500 a month, and it was especially exhausting!â
Zhang Meiâs voice came through the earpiece, full of envy.
âBy the way, what job has Yang arranged for Xiaohai?â Zhang Mei asked.
âYang has asked Xiaohai to drive for the presidentâs officeâ¦â
âA driver?â
Zhang Meiâs voice raised slightly, surprised and somewhat skeptical.
In her opinion, being a driver certainly wasnât a good job either.
Zhang Dan explained with some pride: âThe monthly salary is eight thousand, itâs a five-day workweek, and there are benefits like the âfive insurances and one housing fundâ.â
âBy the way, Yang mentioned something about a 14th salary. Big sister, what does a 14th salary mean?â
âAh?â
âA monthly salary of eight thousand, 14th salary??â
Once again, the tone of Zhang Meiâs voice changed on the phone, not with skepticism this time, but with shock.
âA 14th salary means you get paid for fourteen monthsâ worth of wages. That means at the end of the year, you get at least two extra monthsâ salary. With a monthly salary of eight thousand and a 14th salary, thatâs over 110,000 a yearâ¦â
âXiaohai has just arrived in Jiangcheng and heâs already earning more than me!â
Zhang Mei explained the 14th salary and then sighed once more.
âI see!â
In truth, Zhang Dan roughly knew what a 14th salary meant; mentioning it was just a subtle way of showing off.
And Zhang Mei was indeed green with envy; she had struggled for years and still didnât earn as much as Jiang Xiaohai, a newcomer.
She could only silently lament the worldâs unfairness; often the things you struggle to achieve are effortlessly obtained by others.
They say all roads lead to Rome, but some people are born in Rome!
The next day.
Yang Hao completed the transfer of Haojue Club at Renhe Law Firm.
This Renhe Law Firm was quite interesting; Yang remembered it from the Monopoly game, serving a similar function to a trading hall where property purchases and sales were conducted.
He did not expect the law firm to mirror its game counterpart almost exactly in the real world.
After acquiring the ownership of Haojue Club, the first thing Yang Hao thought about was the management issue.
He knew nothing about club management and needed someone who was well-versed in this business.
Then, he thought of Miss Color, who was smart and good at creating an atmosphere.
She was a bold and visionary woman who was even looking after Yu Jiujiu for Yang Hao.
Indeed, he could have a chat with Miss Color.
With this thought, Yang Hao sent a message to Miss Color on WeChat.
Red Romantic Foot Bath City.
Huang Qing had just arrived at the office.
The mornings were the slowest part of business for the Foot Bath City, to the point where one might say there was hardly any business, with only a few overnight guests trickling out.
âQing, Yu Jiujiu has called off again today. Are you really going to keep supporting her?â
At this moment, Ye Wei, the madam, was sitting across from Huang Qing.
Her role in the Foot Bath City was that of Service Manager, while the position Huang Qing had given Yu Jiujiu was that of Assistant Service Manager, purportedly to assist Ye Wei, but it was essentially a role that didnât involve any actual work.
After all, Yu Jiujiu was not skilled in managing technicians.
âLetâs keep her for now!â
âAfter all, she is one of Yangâs people,â Huang Qing shrugged.
âBut, Yang has not come around for a long time.â
âHe might have long forgotten the favor of you looking after his lover for him!â
âIt would be such a loss!â Ye Wei shook her head.
âConsider it as building a good karmic relationship,â
âThink long-term; itâs not that much money after all!â said Huang Qing nonchalantly.
âYouâre gambling!â
Ye Wei pursed her lips: âMoreover, I think youâre likely to lose the bet. Mr. Yang has probably already forgotten that Yu Jiujiu even exists!!â
âAfter all, a man like him has plenty of women around.â
Huang Qing didnât immediately respond, rhythmically tapping her fingers on the desk. In fact, she had considered what Ye Wei had said.
Moreover, Ye Wei was right, she really was gambling.
Huang Qing prided herself on being a good judge of character, and she felt that Yang Hao was likely a man of principle.
Helping him take care of a mistress, sheâd at least get some perks out of it, maybe even more attention to her business.
While Huang Qing was pondering, a message suddenly popped up on Weixun, sent by someone with the note âYangâ!
âWow, speak of the devil and he appears!â
A smile spread across Huang Qingâs face as she opened the message from Yang Hao on Weixun.
âThat Mr. Yang?â
Ye Wei asked curiously.
âHeâs asking if Iâm at the shop, seems like he wants to come over and support.â
âSo early in the morning and heâs already in the mood??â@@novelbin@@
Ye Wei laughed, âShould I call Lai and Chenxi over?â
The two she mentioned were Red Romantic Foot Bath Cityâs top choices, though they had just finished their night shift.
âNo need, weâll see when he gets here!â
Huang Qing waved her hand dismissively, remembering that Yang Hao hadnât been to the third floor the last time he came, presumably uninterested in public transportation at their place.
âThen Iâll go back to sleep later, see what Mr. Yang wants to do.â
Ye Wei spread her hands and then winked at Huang Qing, teasing, âQing, heâs not targeting you, is he?â
âRemember, last time it was over forty minutes!â
âCan you handle it?â
This artificially beautiful woman started to âdriveâ as soon as there was disagreement.
Huang Qing lit a cigarette, slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, and said disdainfully, âJust forty minutes, not four hours!â
âEven four hours, youâre not afraid of getting swollen.â
âIf he really had that capability, I would indeed be willingâ¦â
The two women bantered back and forth, engaging in a ferocious verbal battle.
In fact, when it comes to seduction, men often canât hold a candle to women.
If you donât believe it, just look at those writers named Liu. Female authors write so much better than male ones!
The two women continued their mosaic-like banter for about twenty minutes until Huang Qing received another message from Yang Hao on Weixun, saying he had arrived.
She hurried out to greet him and then led Yang Hao to her office.
âYang, would you like some tea or coffee?â
Ye Wei asked with a smile, playing the role of a waitress.
âLetâs have tea.â
Yang Hao casually replied, sitting on the sofa in the reception area.
âOkay~â
Ye Wei nodded with a grin and began to brew tea at the side table.
It was a perfectly normal way to entertain a guest, but Ye Wei, intent on hooking the wealthy Yang Hao, was already wearing a low-cut bodycon dress. Then she deliberately pulled her neckline down a bit, revealing a lavish display of cleavage and occasionally gave it a shakeâ¦
Yang Hao just glanced casually and felt a bit dizzy from the display.
He thought to himself, Canât you stop shaking that?!
Yang couldnât say this out loud, but Huang Qing spoke up as if she was his mouthpiece, âWeiwei, can you tone it down a bit?â
âIâm just brewing some tea for Yang,â Ye Wei said in a sing-song voice.
âIs that what you call brewing tea?â
âWithout any electricity, you managed to boil the water with your shenanigans!â Huang Qing rebuked unabashedly.
Ye Wei shook again, âMaybe Yang likes to watch!â
âRight, Yang?â
As she said that, she cast a flirtatious glance at Yang Hao.
âUh-huh, quite nice.â
Yang Hao nodded with a smile, thinking, Sweetheart, shake a little gentler, donât let the silicone fly out!
âYang, how about switching to milk tea?â
Ye Wei suggested with a glowing smile.
Yang Hao glanced at her, couldnât help but give her a thumbs-up: Sharp!
Huang Qing was speechless, gave Ye Wei a fierce look, âEnough, stop showing off your tricks!â
âWeâve got serious business to talk about with Yang!!â
âAlright.â
âYang, then letâs just stick with milk tea for nowâ¦â
After pouring a cup of tea for Yang Hao and one for herself, Ye Wei quietly took a seat to the side, no longer speaking.
âYang, you must have come looking for me for something important?â Huang Qing asked.
Yang Hao nodded, âDo you know much about clubs?â
âOf course, my family used to run a club,â Huang Qing said with a smile.
âReally!â
âThatâs great!â
Yang Hao hadnât expected such a pleasant surprise, and didnât beat around the bush any longer. He immediately said, âIâve acquired a club, intended for business entertainment, but now Iâm in need of a manager.â
âAre you interested??â
