Phi-Fic Chapter 23 was amazing.
Chapter 23 was amazing.
Lin Xiuli was stunned and didn't want to take the money, but Jiang Yang forced it on her.
"From now on, you and your second aunt's husband don't need to come anymore."
Jiang Yang spoke calmly, yet with an undeniable air of authority. He had already given his second aunt a chance out of consideration for his mother, but if she chose to do this, then she shouldn't blame him.
"As for the others, you can divide the work my second aunt does each day equally among yourselves. I will also divide the extra five yuan among you. Work hard, and I will give you a bonus when the project is finished."
Although Jiang Yang knew that there would be no shortage of people for this job, he knew that finding people on the spot would not be as good as these people, so he immediately did some psychological work with them to keep them calm.
"Great! I knew my nephew Jiang Yang wouldn't treat us badly!"
Upon hearing Jiang Yang's words, the women beamed with joy and thanked him profusely.
At this moment, Lin Xiuli finally realized what was happening.
"Jiang Yang, what... what are you doing? Your aunt is just joking with you!" She plastered a fawning smile on her face. "Look, I'll keep doing this job!"
Lin Xiuli never expected Jiang Yang to be so heartless. She had always thought that, given his status as an elder, Jiang Yang would at least give her some face.
I never expected Jiang Yang to be so ruthless this time.
"No need, Auntie, I have enough people to help, you don't need to worry about it."
Jiang Yang looked at Lin Xiuli, his tone still calm, but his attitude was very firm, leaving no room for negotiation.
Lin Xiuli wanted to say something more, but Zhao Jianguo stopped her. He winked at Lin Xiuli and whispered, "Let's go, don't embarrass yourselves here."
Lin Xiuli gritted her teeth, glared fiercely at Jiang Yang, and then slunk away with Zhao Jianguo.
He knew in his heart that it was no use saying anything now; Jiang Yang was determined to make them leave.
Stepping out of the courtyard, Zhao Jianguo couldn't help but complain.
"Look at you, always idle and doing nothing, now look what happened! You tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead!"
Lin Xiuli was seething with anger, and Zhao Jianguo's scolding only fueled her rage.
"How could I have known he would be so heartless! I'm his second aunt!"
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she directed all her resentment at Jiang Yang.
"That little brat, just you wait! I won't let him get away with this!"
After this incident, these workers will become more united and work even harder.
In the following days, the workers were highly motivated and worked more than twice as fast as before.
Everyone was giving it their all, afraid of being fired.
Four days later, all 300 sets of work uniforms for the state-run hotel were completed.
Jiang Yang carefully inspected each item; the stitches were fine and the lines were neat, the quality was even better than he had expected.
Nodding in satisfaction, Jiang Yang pulled a thick wad of banknotes from his pocket.
"You've all worked hard these past few days. This is the extra bonus I promised you all, and everyone gets a share!" Jiang Yang announced loudly, distributing the money to everyone.
"so much!"
A worker exclaimed in surprise, clutching several crisp banknotes tightly in his hand, his eyes lighting up.
Everyone else was also very excited, accepting the prize money one after another, their smiles as bright as blooming chrysanthemums.
"Jiang Yang, you're such a good person!"
"We feel at ease working for you!"
"From now on, we'll listen to you!"
Praises rose and fell, and the courtyard was filled with laughter.
Seeing their joyful expressions, Jiang Yang felt a surge of satisfaction. This money was not just a bonus, but also recognition and respect for their hard work.
Jiang Yang gestured for everyone to quiet down.
"Keep up the good work, everyone! The clothing store should be almost finished with renovations and will be opening soon. We can't afford to be out of stock!"
"no problem!"
Everyone answered in unison, their voices filled with enthusiasm.
Subsequently, Jiang Yang hired a car, took 300 sets of work clothes, and went to the county town to deliver the goods.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the state-run restaurant, Jiang Yang jumped out of the car, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and was about to walk in when he was stopped by the gatekeeper.
"For what?"
The gatekeeper looked Jiang Yang up and down, his tone somewhat unfriendly.
"I'm looking for your General Manager Yang; I've arranged to deliver the goods with her."
Jiang Yang explained.
"Delivering goods? What kind of goods? Do you have an access pass?"
The gatekeeper still wouldn't let them in.
At this moment, Jiang Yang saw Yang Fen's assistant, Liu Shan.
"Sister Liu Shan!"
Upon hearing Jiang Yang's shout, Liu Shan immediately looked over.
"Oh? Mr. Jiang, you've arrived?"
Liu Shan walked over quickly and said to the gatekeeper, "Old Wang, this is Mr. Yang's friend. Let him in quickly."
"Since Section Chief Liu has spoken, let's go in."
The gatekeeper then allowed them to pass.
Jiang Yang had his men unload all the goods from the truck and carry them inside before following Liu Shan to the conference room on the fifth floor.
However, at that moment, a dispute could be heard coming from inside.
Liu Shan pointed to the closed door and said in a low voice, "President Yang is in a meeting inside."
The atmosphere in the conference room was tense.
"Comrade Yang Fen, you made the decision to order clothing without collective discussion. How do you explain where this money went?"
A middle-aged man wearing glasses and with his hair neatly combed spoke in a stern tone.
"Exactly! The country is advocating thrift now, and you just wave your hand and spend public money to make clothes. Isn't that just playing the fool?"
Another overweight man, dressed in a cadre uniform, chimed in.
Yang Fen's expression was serious, but she was somewhat anxious, glancing outside every now and then.
"Distinguished leaders, this batch of uniforms is to enhance our restaurant's service image. I have already contacted the manufacturer..."
"Have you made contact? Who knows what kind of shady business you've contacted? Is the quality guaranteed? Will the style suit you? What if you get scammed?"
The bespectacled man pressed closer.
Yang Fen opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but didn't know where to begin.
Jiang Yang hasn't arrived yet, and she hasn't even seen his clothes. How can she explain this?
She was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. This batch of clothing was the first step in her reform plan. If it failed, it would be even more difficult to carry out the work afterward.
He might even be transferred because of this, and then there would be even less hope of saving the state-run restaurant.
Just then, Liu Shan led Jiang Yang into the conference room.
"Mr. Yang, Mr. Jiang has arrived."
Jiang Yang followed Liu Shan into the conference room, and all eyes were on him.
"Jiang Yang, you're finally here! Are the clothes all ready?"
Yang Fen felt as if she had seen a savior.
"Everything is ready, it's right outside."
Jiang Yang nodded, his calm tone giving Yang Fen immense confidence.
"Quick, bring it in so I can see it!"
Yang Fen urged Jiang Yang to bring the clothes in impatiently.
Without wasting any words, Jiang Yang immediately brought in all the boxes of uniforms, and then opened them one by one to show everyone present.
The meeting room was completely silent; everyone was amazed by the work uniforms before them.
