Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk! - Chapter 81
Chapter 81: Chapter 81 Resignation and Job Hunting
Although I said that in future work, I would have to be more dedicated and a little more tired,
but as long as there’s more money to be taken, being a little more dedicated is only right, and what’s the harm in being a little tired?
After all, the reason for working is to make money, and with money, everything is negotiable.
Moreover, as long as you do well, it’s easier to get promoted.
Zhao Hai also said that the company would add another store, making a total of twenty-one stores.
Nobody really cared about that, though.
Next, orders were released at every level. Everyone at their posts, doing their duties: those who needed to contact the decorating company did so, those who needed to organize staff training did so, those who needed to recruit employees did so…
Under Zhao Hai’s arrangements, everything proceeded in an orderly fashion.
…
That day at noon, at a certain restaurant.
Zhao Yulu and Chen Guanglei were eating together.
“I resigned,” Zhao Yulu said, in a very bad mood.
Since she failed to secure the ten billion special investment funds custody business for the Southwest Commerce Chamber last time, Zhao Yulu felt that in these days, all her colleagues’ gazes seemed to be mocking her, making her feel like a thorn was in her side. She found it unbearable to keep working at the bank and had no choice but to hand in her resignation.
The bank manager was also very dissatisfied with her and approved her resignation immediately.
Normally, an employee like her would need at least a month to leave.
However, the bank manager didn’t even want to see her and let her go directly.
“Yu Lu, this is all my fault. To show my apology, I’ve arranged for you to be a manager at my dad’s company. I guarantee the salary will be higher than what you were making at the bank, and you’ll be more free,”
Chen Guanglei actually felt it was a good thing that Zhao Yulu had resigned.
If she could work at his dad’s Triumph Investment, that would be even better.
The closer you are to the water, the first to get the moon, he would have more opportunities to win over Zhao Yulu.
Just drop by for a visit, commute together, eat meals together; it would be hard not to develop feelings.
“No need, I still want to look for a job on my own,” Zhao Yulu declined, knowing full well what Chen Guanglei meant.
She still felt it best to look for a job on her own first.
She really wasn’t interested in Chen Guanglei.
The most daring decision she had made was to agree to be Chen Guanglei’s girlfriend if she secured the ten billion custody business.
She thought to herself, after becoming Chen Guanglei’s girlfriend, they’d break up after a while.
So naturally, she wouldn’t work at Chen Guanglei’s father’s company, unless she really couldn’t find a better job, then she would consider it.
“Yu Lu, there’s really no need for you to look for a job on your own. Just come work at my dad’s company,” Chen Guanglei still didn’t want to give up the opportunity.
“No, thank you,” Zhao Yulu still shook her head.
“Alright then, I respect your decision,” Chen Guanglei said helplessly, his eyes rolling, “By the way, are you still looking for work in a bank or another finance company?”
Zhao Yulu said, “Not necessarily, what matters most to me are the terms of employment. If the terms are good, I think I can work in any industry.”
She just wanted to make money; she didn’t care what industry it was in, as long as there was money to be made.
Of course, the industry had to be legitimate.
Chen Guanglei laughed, “A good friend of mine’s family is in the furniture business. If you’re willing to go, I can recommend you to work there, and I guarantee you’ll be satisfied with the salary and benefits.”
Zhao Yulu still shook her head, “No thanks, I’ll choose on my own.”
She didn’t want to owe Chen Guanglei any favors, lest he bring this up later.
Chen Guanglei’s opportunistic behavior the last time still made her feel very uncomfortable.
However, she still wanted to use Chen Guanglei’s connections to make money and pay off her debts, so she had to keep in touch with him.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t bother with Chen Guanglei at all.
“Alright then.” Chen Guanglei, feeling helpless, gave up on the idea of introducing her to a job and changed the subject, “By the way, didn’t I say I’d help you make money to pay off your debts? In a few days, there will be an opportunity to earn some money.”
Zhao Yulu’s eyes lit up slightly, “What opportunity?”
Chen Guanglei chuckled, “In a few days, at the Haicheng Jadeite Trading Center, a batch of new jadeite raw stones will arrive. We can go there, buy some jadeite raw stones, and if we cut open some jadeite, making a million will be a breeze.”
Zhao Yulu frowned, “You mean gambling on stones?”
Chen Guanglei nodded, “Exactly, it’s gambling on stones. If you come with me, I’ll choose the jadeite raw stones. The money we make, we’ll split fifty-fifty. Just one trip and you could completely clear your million in debt, with plenty to spare!”
Zhao Yulu expressed surprise, “How are you so confident? Do you actually understand stone gambling?”
“Of course.” Chen Guanglei said proudly, “Yu Lu, let me tell you, I have a deep study of stone gambling. Every time I make a move, I make quite a bit.”
Zhao Yulu was skeptical, “Really?”
Chen Guanglei had never mentioned this, and everything he had said before was inaccurate, so now she would always put a question mark on Chen Guanglei’s words.
“It’s definitely true,” Chen Guanglei said, “This isn’t like picking up leaks in an antique street. Picking up leaks there is about luck, but stone gambling is all about skill. When we go, just watch me. I guarantee you’ll be amazed.”
Zhao Yulu nodded, “Alright, I hope it turns out as you say, and I can earn the money to pay off my debts.”
Chen Guanglei assured her confidently, “Don’t worry, you’ll definitely make money.”
Zhao Yulu gave Chen Guanglei a look but said nothing more.
She thought to herself that he was always like this, but later it always proved wrong.
However, she still needed to rely on Chen Guanglei to make money, so she remained silent.
After the meal, Zhao Yulu went home.
Once home, she began to look up job recruitment information.
As she said, the industry didn’t matter as long as the salary and benefits were high.
“Huh?” Zhao Yulu spotted a job listing, “The Original Fisher Hotpot Restaurant is renamed Riverbottom Loot, extensively recruiting for various positions… The Fisher Hotpot Restaurant, isn’t that the one near the school? Why was it renamed to Riverbottom Loot? And the offered salary is half higher than what is standard in the industry, is that for real?”
A salary half higher than the average in the industry caught Zhao Yulu’s interest.
Moreover, the recruitment notice also talked about the compensation and reward systems, which were very attractive.
She believed that with her abilities, taking care of operating tasks wouldn’t be a problem.
If she did well, she would have a chance to be promoted to a management position, which was definitely an opportunity.
Thus, Zhao Yulu sent her resume out.
At five o’clock in the afternoon, Zhao Yulu received a call.
It was from the Human Resources department at Riverbottom Loot, informing her that she had an interview the next day.
Zhao Yulu naturally agreed without hesitation, “Okay, I’ll be there on time.”
After hanging up the phone, she received a message from Zhao Yuqing, an HR employee at Riverbottom Loot, which provided the company’s address, contact number, and the contact person.
