Chapter 538 - 254: Such a Great Boss, Truly Rare in This World!
"The two of you working together will definitely help me manage the first claypot restaurant well. I trust you."
"You’re worth this price, too."
With a smile, Jiang Tao glanced at Yuan Mengjie and Lin Ranran with encouraging eyes.
"President Jiang, we’re willing! We are honored to start a business with you!"
Before Yuan Mengjie could answer, Lin Ranran agreed first.
After switching jobs to Jiang Tao’s company, she and Yuan Mengjie together earned a monthly salary of 30,000!
What kind of concept is a monthly salary of 30,000?
Even though rents are expensive, and the cost of living is high in Beijing, the two of them can still save about half of their salary each month!
They could save hundreds of thousands, or even 200,000, a year!
The speed of saving money is definitely much faster than now!
And this is just the beginning; salaries will increase in the future, and they’ll earn even more!
The prospects Jiang Tao painted, Lin Ranran accepted without hesitation!
"Yes, we are willing! Thank you for your trust in us; Ranran and I will certainly not let you down!"
Seeing his girlfriend had agreed, Yuan Mengjie naturally had no reason to refuse.
A base monthly salary of 15,000 is irresistible!
Initially, when Yuan Mengjie and Lin Ranran planned to open their own store, they thought it would be good to earn 20,000 a month.
In a small county like Ping County, 240,000 a year is considered a high-income group, and they could live comfortably.
Of course, opening a store carries a lot of risks!
It’s not like you can make money just because you have the skills; doing business isn’t so simple.
There are many dirty tactics in the industry competition.
Today they report you for food hygiene, tomorrow for environmental issues, and the day after for fire safety...
If you don’t have some skills or connections, it’s hard to withstand wave after wave of inspections.
These concerns are also why Yuan Mengjie and Lin Ranran haven’t quit to start their own business yet.
They’ve witnessed a lot of competition behavior among peers during the years they worked at Qiao Claypot.
If it weren’t for the boss having some connections in the county, they would have closed down long ago.
They also worry they’d be targeted by their former boss if they quit to work independently...
Now, they don’t need to bear any risk, just follow Jiang Tao and earn 30,000 per month!
Why hesitate? Just go for it!
The only downside is having to leave Ping County to work in Beijing.
Apart from that, they are both very satisfied.
"Alright, it’s settled then. You both process your resignation as soon as possible."
"I’ve already called someone to register the company in Beijing."
"Once the company statutes are ready in Beijing, you will be the first batch of founding employees."
Jiang Tao was very satisfied with their performance, and his smile grew warmer.
Yuan Mengjie said excitedly, "Alright, President Jiang, I’ll call the boss in a while, and can finish resigning by tomorrow morning."
"I can also finish it by tomorrow morning!"
Lin Ranran also looked extremely excited.
Soon, she’ll be someone earning a monthly salary of 15K.
This income is already tops among her relatives and friends!
Jiang Tao laughed, "Although our store hasn’t opened yet, we’ll start calculating your salary from the day you resign from your previous job. Salaries will be paid as usual."
"Thank you, President Jiang!"
"President Jiang, you’re too good!"
Upon hearing Jiang Tao’s words, Yuan Mengjie and Lin Ranran were filled with gratitude again.
Such a good boss is truly rare!
Following such a good boss, they certainly won’t be mistreated in the future!
After finishing work discussions, the three of them engaged in a casual conversation about future restaurant operations for about an hour.
Until Jiang Tao’s phone rang, with a call from Bai Yulan.
"Let’s call it a day for now."
"I’ve got an important guest tonight, so I won’t invite you two for dinner this time."
Jiang Tao raised his wrist to check his Green Water Ghost watch, noticing it was already past 7 PM.
"Alright, President Jiang! If you’ve got something to do, go ahead. There will be plenty of chances for dinner!"
"Yes, yes, take care, President Jiang."
Yuan Mengjie and Lin Ranran stood up, escorting Jiang Tao to the door of Starbucks, watching him drive away in his Mercedes G-Wagon.
"Brother Jie, Brother Jie, we’re going to make it big, we’re going to make it big! We’re going to make it big!"
Watching Jiang Tao drive away, Lin Ranran, filled with excitement, hugged Yuan Mengjie and jumped around.
She had held back in front of Jiang Tao, but now she could finally let it all out!
From being a restaurant supervisor earning only 4K a month to a manager earning 15K a month!
Lin Ranran was surely on the rise, stepping to the peak of her career, and she couldn’t contain her excitement!
"Yes, we’re going to make it big! In less than a year or two, we’ll turn things around."
Yuan Mengjie was equally excited, clenching his fist, and secretly vowed to make sure the first store succeeds.
He must live up to the expectations President Jiang has for him and his girlfriend; he surely must not!
After their excitement subsided, the young couple headed straight to the hospital to share the good news with their mother and the sister who had already gotten off work and was staying at the hospital.
When the bedridden Nanny Yuan heard the good news from her son, she felt happy for him too.
"President Jiang is such a good person, Xiao Qi, Xiao Jie, we must not let him down."
Nanny Yuan clasped both Yuan Mengqi’s and Yuan Mengjie’s hands, exhorting earnestly.
"Don’t worry, Mom! We definitely won’t let President Jiang down; President Jiang is my Bo Le!"
Yuan Mengjie patted his mother’s hand, gratitude toward Jiang Tao evident in his eyes.
"Mom, don’t worry about these things; don’t you know what kind of people Xiao Jie and I are?"
Yuan Mengqi also smiled as she patted her mother’s hand, her smile full of gratitude towards Jiang Tao.
She felt she could never repay Jiang Tao for his grace towards her and her family.
...
While Yuan Mengqi’s family chatted at the hospital,
Jiang Tao had driven to Bai Yulan’s villa in Anaxi Town.
He parked his car.
Jiang Tao, holding a large and a small shopping bag in his hand, got out of the car.
"Mr. Jiang, you’re here; President Bai is already waiting for you in the dining room."
A Nanny greeted him warmly and turned to lead him inside the villa.
Following the Nanny, Jiang Tao walked through the villa’s courtyard and into the dining room with another Nanny.
"Jiang Tao, you’re here."
Bai Yulan rose to greet him warmly, her enthusiasm evident.
The two Nannies observed the change in Bai Yulan’s demeanor upon seeing Jiang Tao, amazed.
They could clearly feel Bai Yulan’s mood lifting as soon as she saw Jiang Tao.
Her smile was brighter and more infectious!
The two Nannies, having worked for Bai Yulan for a decade, had never seen her like this before.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Sister Bai. I brought you a little gift."
Jiang Tao smiled in greeting, handing one of the shopping bags to a nearby Nanny.
Then he fetched a glass bottle without any label from the smaller shopping bag.
The bottle contained a rich golden liquid resembling honey.
"Oh? What’s this?"
Seeing the bottle, Bai Yulan’s face showed confusion and curiosity.
"This is some good wine I got from a friend, brought it for Sister Bai to try."
Jiang Tao said as he placed the bottle on the table.
"Really, Jiang Tao, you’re so thoughtful. I must try it then."
"Please sit, let’s talk."
"Nanny Li, Nanny Wang, please serve the dishes."
Bai Yulan greeted Jiang Tao to sit while directing the two Nannies to begin serving the food.
Soon, 10 beautifully presented dishes, each looking and smelling delicious, were placed on the table.
Jiang Tao then opened the glass bottle he brought and poured a cup of Jade Dew for both Bai Yulan and himself.
"Such a wonderful aroma!"
Bai Yulan brought the cup to her nose, revealing a surprised expression.
Despite being a woman, business dealings and drinking are unavoidable for Bai Yulan.
She has tasted many fine wines.
She has tried luxury wines costing hundreds of thousands or even millions per bottle and premium wines aged for decades.
In terms of alcoholic beverages, Bai Yulan is somewhat of an expert.
But it was her first time seeing a wine that smelled so wonderful and pleasant as Jiang Tao had brought today.
