Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

"Many hotel employees send their children to the hotel for childcare. If that's not possible, we'll send our children there too."

"Eight yuan a month, this is too expensive..." Yan Jiecheng exclaimed with his eyes wide open.

Chen Juan shook her head and answered Yan Jiecheng, who was looking at her in shock: "Not expensive... not expensive at all..."

"Do you know what the children in the after-school program eat at restaurants at noon and in the evening?"

"I took advantage of the break to go upstairs and take a look."

"Two meat dishes, two vegetable dishes, and a soup. Chicken, pork, eggs. As long as you can eat it, you can make whatever you want."

"The two teachers in the after-school care class are retired teachers hired by our boss from the school, and there are two interns helping out."

"Not only can we ensure the safety of all the children, but we can also take them to class and learn things every day..."

"Many of our hotel employees' children are in daycare."

"Even the second son of the boss's family and the second son of Tang Dashan's family are here."

"When we separate from our parents in the future, we only need to give them ten dollars a month as pension."

"The twenty dollars saved can not only pay for the second child's childcare fees, so that he can eat better in the restaurant, but also learn knowledge."

"The remaining money will be enough to support the eldest child's education and there will be at least five dollars left."

"Enough for our family to have two or three nice meals in a restaurant."

Hearing this, the shocked expression on Yan Jiecheng's face disappeared instantly.

There is no father who doesn't love his son.

Yan Jiecheng knew exactly what meals his two sons and daughter usually ate with Yan Fugui.

But because he had not separated from his parents and lived under someone else's roof, he had no choice but to endure it even though he felt sorry for the two children.

Now I have the opportunity to give my two children a better life, eat better meals, and learn knowledge.

The most important thing was that the money he spent was less than 20 yuan, which was lower than the living expenses he paid to Yan Fugui every month. Yan Jiecheng could not find any reason to refuse.

He nodded immediately: "Okay..."

"If we really live separately from our parents, we'll listen to you and send the second child to the after-school care program at your hotel. The first child will go to school by himself, and I'll pick him up after school."

"Anyway, I work in a steel mill and get off work early every day."

"If it doesn't work, just let him go home by himself. After all, he is already a grown man in his teens."

At this point, Yan Jiecheng suddenly showed a hint of envy on his face, and hesitantly asked his wife: "Juanzi..."

"Since the salary at your restaurant is so high, do you think I should also go to work at Dongjun Restaurant?"

Chen Juan's first reaction was to nod.

Because the income from working in a restaurant is indeed much higher than that of her husband working in a steel mill.

But after thinking about it, he shook his head: "I also want you to work in a restaurant and compete with me for a higher salary..."

"But the hotel is not short of people now..."

"I heard from Sister Yu Li that the number of employees at Dongjun Hotel has been fixed. Unless someone is fired, they won't hire anyone else."

"Besides, the jobs that men in restaurants work in are either in the kitchen or in the security team."

"You are not a veteran, so you cannot join the security team."

"If you don't have any cooking skills, you can only be a kitchen helper, a vegetable cutter, or a food preparer. There is almost no future for you."

"It's better to stay in the steel mill and improve my skills."

"When you become a senior technician in a steel mill in the future, your salary will naturally increase."

Although Yan Jiecheng's salary at the steel rolling mill was not high, he was still a third-level technician and people called him Master Yan wherever he went.

If I really wanted to work in a restaurant, I would have to start from the bottom as a vegetable cutter and kitchen helper. I would definitely not be able to stand being ordered around. So I gave up the idea of ​​working in a restaurant.

The east wing in the front yard of the quadrangle.

Wang Dongzheng introduced his work achievements during this period to his wife Chen Jun with a smile on his face.

"young married woman……"

"According to the accounting department, the total profit of the hotel this month is 51,380 yuan."

"According to the agreement, the dividends awarded to all workers will account for 35 percent of all net profits."

"Because of the scoring system, only 35 percent of the profits are distributed, and the rest belongs to us."

"Excluding the change, the total is thirty-five thousand dollars."

"Combined with the more than 10,000 yuan balance from last month, our savings have once again exceeded 45,000 yuan."

"I have been looking for the address of a new hotel in Sijiu City for the past few days, and I finally found it."

"One is a completely rotten courtyard house. I plan to tear it down and rebuild a five-story building."

"The other is a small factory that fell into decline a few years ago. It consists of two adjacent factory buildings and a two-story office building."

“We can just convert the factory building into a hotel lobby.”

“The two-story office building can be converted into private rooms.”

“I plan to take over both locations at once and build two branches at the same time.”

"As long as the 40,000 yuan I have can last until the restaurant distributes dividends next month, I can build two restaurants."

"The factory restaurant will be faster, after all, there is no need to rebuild the building."

"If nothing goes wrong, it will be put into use in two months."

"The reconstruction will be slower and it will take about four months before it can be put into use."

"But this makes it convenient for us to slowly train our employees."

Chen Jun didn't expect that his man would take such a big step and open two branches.

But no objections were raised.

Now the Dongjun Hotel, which is located right opposite the steel rolling mill, is making profits every day. As long as there are no problems with this hotel, Wang Dong will have a steady stream of working capital, and the two newly built hotels will naturally not have any problems.

He immediately agreed: "Dongzi..."

"You run the restaurant yourself, if you think it's okay, then go ahead..."

"My transfer has basically been finalized..."

"The country is short of technical talent everywhere. I am a college student and an engineer, so I was directly transferred to a higher-level department as deputy director without any reduction in rank."

"If nothing unexpected happens, the director of our department will retire in two years, and I will be able to take over his position as director."

Father-in-law Chen Dehui, who rarely gave suggestions on their work, suddenly said, "Dongzi..."

"There is something you need to pay attention to..."

"After the news that Yan Fugui's two daughters-in-law went to work in the restaurant spread, not only did many of our neighbors ask me if your restaurant was hiring, but even many neighbors in the surrounding courtyards came to me, hoping to use my connections to send their children to work in the restaurant..."

"If I refuse directly, I'm worried that these people will say that we are ruthless and it will affect the reputation of the hotel. I don't know how to answer them."

"I can only shirk responsibility and say I'll ask you about it."

"But I don't think these people will give up." (End of this chapter)
