Chapter 113: Joanna
When they arrived at the school, the principal and teachers led them to the small class.
When I entered the door, the classroom was arranged like a class party, with streamers, balloons, paper flowers, etc., cartoon characters were drawn on the blackboard, and the LCD TV broadcast cartoons for learning, the middle of the classroom was empty, the floor was covered with blankets, and there were colorful cartoon benches on the wall, and there were already children sitting on it, Qin Yi roughly counted and smiled, there were only more than 20 students in a class!
Nodding in my heart, this environment is not bad, very suitable for children to play.
Looking at Angel and Betsy again, Qin Yi couldn't help but smile. The two little girls stretched out their heads and looked at the classroom for a while, their big eyes were bright, obviously attracted by the outfits they had never seen inside.
The teacher is worthy of being a professional, and after a while, the two girls were coaxed to smile, they waved their little hands, and followed the teacher into the classroom.
Qin Yi and the three of them chatted with the principal Lao Matt for a while, this old man in his 60s is quite talkative, humorous and childlike, maybe because of this, he manages a kindergarten full of children!
After saying goodbye to old Matt, Qin Yi and Susa still had something to do, and Walker went back to the farm first.
In the past few days, in addition to being busy with the matter of calves and the creation of a financial office, Susa has not delayed, she has posted recruitment information on the Internet, and she has also run several office buildings in Augusta by herself, and selected a few good places, this time just let Qin Yi go over to take a look.
In fact, in a town like Augusta, there are no buildings with more than 5 floors, and most of them are small buildings with two or three floors, and these office buildings are also such small buildings. But that's enough, two offices are perfectly fine as a firm, and I didn't plan to make it big.
After looking at a few of them, in the end, Qin Yi chose one with a façade, after all, it was a formal financial office, and it was comfortable to hang a bright signboard.
This is the façade of the two houses upstairs and downstairs, the downstairs can be used as a reception, and the upstairs is used as several employee offices, Susa of course does not have to work here, just come over from time to time to check the work status of the employees.
In the afternoon, I accompanied Susa to meet a woman in her 40s named Joanna, who came to apply for the accounting role of the firm.
This is Sousa's first applicant, and Joanna has more than 20 years of experience in the industry and is a real senior accountant. Susa was still a little surprised when she received this application information, this is an old accountant, why did he come to the small town of Augusta for an interview, or is it his own newly registered firm?
But whether it's true or not, you have to see each other first, so there was this appointment.
"Earlier, I worked at Helena, and for the last decade or so, I've been living in Seattle, and I've always been an accountant."
Joanna stirred the coffee elegantly, took a sip of it, and continued, "You may not know, but I was also born in Augusta, and when I was a child, my family also had a small farm. However, when I grew up, I wanted to go to the big city, and after living for a long time, I realized that what I missed the most was farm life. ”
Susa nodded, when she was in college, she also longed for the prosperity of the outside metropolis, but when she went out, she realized that what she wanted most was the tranquility of the small farm.
"A few years ago, I was like you, but fortunately, I understood it early, and now I am guarding the ranch, taking care of the finances, and I am at ease and at ease."
Susa is not showing off, but at this moment, she seems to be in Joanna, seeing her middle-aged self, these words are said to Joanna on the surface, but in fact, they are said to another possible self, which is a kind of celebration for herself.
If it weren't for the early illness of my father, I am afraid that I would have chosen a life like Joanna, and I would look back and regret it when I was old, regretting that I missed a lot of things and missed someone.
Qin Yi sat on the side and drank coffee, he didn't understand the interview or anything, and it was not easy to interject, so he came along, but, well, idle is idle, okay, I hope the interview will end sooner, and the calves from the pasture will arrive.
"Heh," Joanna is dozens of years old, and has seen all kinds of people in the metropolis, so she naturally understands that Susa has no malicious intentions, so she doesn't mind, "It's not too late, I returned to Augusta, and bought a small farm of dozens of acres half a year ago, raising a few sheep and a horse, which is also very good." ”
"Congratulations, you've found the life you want." Sousa was also happy for her.
"Yes, farm life is what I want, but it's not enough, I love farm life, yes, but I also like accounting, so I saw your job posting and came over."
Qin Yi listened to her words and somewhat understood, Joanna is tired of the city, but she is also a person who can't be idle, if she can work in Susa's office, she can be an accountant and live on the farm, killing two birds with one stone!
"Congratulations, Joanna, you passed, start work tomorrow, help me recruit two more, work experience doesn't matter." Susa began to pull up the strong man, with this experienced veteran accountant here, the newly graduated accountant can do chores.
"However, your salary may not be as good as that of Seattle." Susa first said to Joanna, then winked at Qin Yi, and smiled happily, probably because the newly opened office had a general in charge.
"I'm not short of money now, enough for me to live comfortably here for the rest of my life, of course, the salary should be reasonable, I work after all." Joanna doesn't care how much, as long as it meets local standards, this is what she deserves, this should be serious.
"Of course!"
Before leaving, Joanna looked at Qin Yi a few times, and was a little curious about this young Chinese man who had been very famous in Augusta for half a year, this guy built an irrigation system during the great drought, and also transformed a large area of farms into pastures with high-quality pasture, which is very remarkable!
Back at the ranch in the afternoon, Ryan was taking people to receive calves in the Rocky Mountains, and Qin Yi took Susa over to help.
At 4 o'clock, Angel came back with a small schoolbag on her back, looking at her happy appearance, obviously doing well at school.
"Angel, is school fun?" Qin Yi picked up the little girl and put it on her lap and inquired about the school.
"It's fun, I'll go back tomorrow!" Angel grinned, threw herself into Qin Yi's arms, arched, and found a comfortable position to lie down.
"Do the kids like Angel?" Qin Yi asked deliberately, and seeing her happy appearance, he knew that he had made a lot of friends.
"Yes, and Becky, everybody likes us." Angel reached out and counted her two little chubby hands, "Jojo, Elsa, Renee, Gracie, Matthew, and many more, they all like me and Betsy." ”
After speaking, the little girl looked up at Qin Yi, waiting for him to praise herself.
Qin Yi smiled, and when she looked at her expectant big eyes, she knew her thoughts, "Angel is the most well-behaved, I'll just say, there must be many people who like Angel, and Betsy, Betsy is also a good child." ”
Sure enough, the little girl was so happy that she put her arms around his neck and kissed him fiercely.
In the next few days, calves were delivered every day, and Qin Yi, like the cowboys, had a busy and fulfilling life.
Sousa's office was already on the right track, and with Joanna's help, two new recruits were recruited, the girl Efra and the young man Huggins, who had just graduated from college and were both locals, and had a great interest in the office close to home.
They have heard that this office is a subordinate unit of the company of that magical Chinese man, and with such a promising rancher, his future will definitely not be bad!
