Chapter 14 This Boss Has Evil Intentions

There was a moment of silence in the living room.

Seeing this, Dong Hong's expectant expression gradually turned into disappointment.

She had heard about this job fair from a colleague, originally thinking Yang Dahai would find a job there, but seeing Yang Dahai's silence now, she knew he hadn't found one.

Yang Dahai looked at his wife's disappointed expression and sighed.

"It's not that I didn't find one, there is a job, but I feel it's a bit unreliable."

"What kind of job? It's not manual labor, is it? That won't do, your back can't handle it. Don't forget, last time you took a construction job and ended up lying in bed for half a month."

Dong Hong said anxiously.

Seeing this, Yang Dahai quickly explained.

"It's not manual labor, it's my old trade, driving."

"Isn't that perfect then?"

"But this job…"

Yang Dahai seriously explained the whole story.

"The monthly salary is eight thousand, plus five insurances and one housing fund. The boss is also that new young man upstairs. It sounds a bit unreliable."

After listening to her husband's account, Dong Hong also fell into deep thought.

"How about asking Yaoyao? She knows more."

"Forget it, at this hour, our daughter should still be studying. Let's not disturb her."

Yang Dahai spoke up to stop her.

"I'll go to the company tomorrow and take a look. We'll naturally know if it's real then."

"Alright."

Dong Hong nodded, then instructed.

"You can go and see, but if they ask you to pay anything, don't agree. I've heard that companies that ask for money are all scams."

"I know."

…………

Night

Jiangcheng University, girls' dormitory.

Shen Rou returned to the dormitory with a tired face after finishing her part-time job.

"Rou Rou, didn't you go to the job fair today? How did you still go to your part-time job?"

Her roommate Zhang Lan saw Shen Rou return and immediately sat up from her bed.

"After the job fair, I went straight to my part-time job."

Shen Rou casually placed her backpack on the table and slumped onto the chair.

"Oh, you really risk your life for money. How was the job fair today?"

"But based on the requirements on your resume, I guess there won't be any results. Advance salary? Bosses nowadays are very stingy, it's impossible for them to agree."

Shen Rou rested her chin on one hand, and with a worried look, placed a slightly wrinkled note on the table.

"There is one company that agreed to an advance salary."

"Isn't that great? Why do you look so unhappy?"

Zhang Lan looked at Shen Rou's worried face and asked curiously.

"I feel it's a bit unreal. Not only did this company agree to an advance salary, but they were also very generous, offering a monthly salary of 6000 directly."

Shen Rou fiddled with the note on the table, and couldn't help but think of the young man who interviewed her. He didn't feel like a scammer.

"Giving an intern 6000? This boss is too generous."

"Quick, let me see what company it is."

Zhang Lan exclaimed.

"Here!"

Shen Rou pointed to the note on the desk.

Seeing this, Zhang Lan eagerly got out of bed and took the note.

Only a company name and address were written on it.

Changfeng Clothing Co., Ltd.

Zhang Lan mumbled the company name and picked up her phone to look up company information.

After a while, she looked up and said.

"The information shows that this company has a scale of only about 30 people, and just a while ago, there was a change in the company's legal representative, and the boss changed."

"There are no records of illegal operations, but for a private enterprise of this size, there's absolutely no need to spend 6000 yuan to hire an Assistant, is there? This is too illogical."

"Yeah, I'm also puzzled. A company that size doesn't need an Assistant at all."

Shen Rou said with a frown.

"I know why."

Zhang Lan suddenly said loudly.

"Why?"

"Do you think the boss of that company might have taken a liking to your looks and wants to keep you?"

"Our Rou Rou is so beautiful, I think that must be it."

Zhang Lan came to Shen Rou's side and said excitedly.

Saying that, she even reached out and hooked Shen Rou's chin, saying with a smile.

"Isn't there a saying like this? When there's work, the secretary does it, when there's nothing…"

"What nonsense are you talking about? There was only a young interviewer, I didn't even see the boss."

Shen Rou irritably slapped away Zhang Lan's outstretched arm.

Seeing this, Zhang Lan stopped joking and looked at Shen Rou, asking seriously.

"So, what are your plans? Are you going tomorrow or not?"

"I've decided to go and see."

Shen Rou hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Then be careful. Remember to call me when you go tomorrow. Anyway, I'm not very optimistic about it."

Zhang Lan instructed. She didn't think a small private enterprise would need an Assistant position. But she also knew that Shen Rou desperately wanted such a job, so she couldn't bring herself to stop her.

………..

The next day,

Chen Mo arrived at the company early.

"Good morning, President Chen!"

"Good morning, President Chen!"

Every employee who passed by greeted Chen Mo respectfully.

Chen Mo smiled in response and went to his office.

Sitting bored in the office chair, he originally wanted to turn on the computer and play some games to pass the time, but found that the old office computer was laggy to death and couldn't run games at all.

Huh!

These computers can also be replaced with new ones.

Chen Mo suddenly thought of another way to spend money.

How can employees work with such old computers? They must be replaced with good ones.

Yesterday, twelve sets of desks and chairs were purchased, which means twelve computers can be added. Of course, the configuration must be the best.

He wondered how much of the System funds these twelve computers would cost.

This is a good opportunity to give Wei Yan something to do. He can go to the computer market to check things out.

Chen Mo thought to himself, Wei Yan was the most dishonest person in the entire company. Instead of thinking about bringing in customers and making money for the company, he was thinking about getting discounts when buying things and saving money for the company. He was truly too insensible.

This kind of improper work attitude must be corrected in time.

Sure enough, not long after,

Wei Yan knocked and entered the office.

"President Chen, the desks and chairs have been bought. Someone will deliver them soon."

"Here are the receipts for the desks and chairs."

Saying that, he took out a receipt and handed it to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo took the receipt, looked at the final price, and nodded with satisfaction.

Not bad,

they were bought at the original price.

"Very good, you handled the matter well."

"Thank you for the compliment, President Chen."

Wei Yan was a little flattered. He didn't expect President Chen to actually praise him.

He knew that he hadn't been praised even for bringing in the company's first order two days ago.

"By the way, do you have anything else to do later?"

Chen Mo suddenly spoke.

"I'm planning to go out and meet some clients to see if I can bring in some orders."

"The last batch of orders is almost finished in the workshop. Without new orders, the workshop will probably have to shut down."

Wei Yan answered truthfully.

Last night, when he went out with Li Shen to find street vendors selling clothes, Li Shen mentioned it to him, so he planned to meet several clients today to see if he could bring in new orders.
