Chapter 005: Finishing Work
Mid-December.
"Boss, I plan to stop working with you until the end of the month!"
On this day, Lin Zhichao officially submitted his resignation to Jin Bingwen and his wife, and he was also in a very relaxed mood and felt that the future was bright.
As soon as his words fell, Jin Bingwen and his wife and Ah Cai were a little incredible, after all, Lin Zhichao had only been in office for less than four months before he dared to resign.
Jin Bingwen immediately felt the true value of Lin Zhichao in his heart, and immediately said: "Chaozai, I treat you well, I know that you like to read, and I specially allow you to take it home and borrow it." Recently, you have been eating overtime at noon, and I have not punished you. ”
He played the emotional card, because he understood that Lin Zhichao's contribution to the new star newsstand was very large, and if Lin Zhichao left, his own interests would be affected to a certain extent.
As for the salary increase, it is a bit of a life, not that he is reluctant to give up one or twenty Hong Kong dollars, but that he is worried that Lin Zhichao's appetite is getting bigger and bigger, and this opening is not easy to open.
Lin Zhichao said calmly: "The boss is indeed 'very good' to me, but I can't sell newspapers for the rest of my life, so I want to go out." ”
He didn't think he owed Jin Bingwen in his heart, the two belonged to an employment relationship, and he created a high income for Jin Bingwen, with a minimum wage of 60 Hong Kong dollars.
Therefore, for the borrowing of books, it is regarded as a bonus.
Seeing Lin Zhichao's resolute attitude, Jin Bingwen thought about it, but he was not ready to be a villain, after all, he could also see that Lin Zhichao would definitely be a character in the future, and he couldn't be offended.
However, he asked curiously: "You seem to be in the intermediary business, have you made money?" ”
Jin Bingwen and his wife more or less knew about Lin Zhichao's recent abnormal behavior, but they didn't take it seriously, thinking that it was just a young man's blind toss.
Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "I did make a lot of money, mainly because I met a lot of friends, including some big names, such as Li Cifu, the owner of 'Po Chai Pill', Gan Suihui, the owner of Yong Kee Restaurant, real estate businessmen, etc. ”
Jin Bingwen and his wife and Ah Cai were surprised, they didn't expect that in just four months, Lin Zhichao had already known so many people. With this communication ability, others will not lack a bite to eat in the future.
"Well, I knew that you weren't a thing in the pool, but I didn't expect you to develop so quickly."
"The boss laughed, it's a developed place."
In the end, Jin Bingwen was released with pain, but there was no intention of evil.
What's more, if those big bosses really appreciate this kid, wouldn't they offend people.
After this matter was settled, Lin Zhichao was in a relaxed mood.
He now has a deposit of more than 2,000 yuan in his hand, all of which were saved by intermediaries.
The important thing is that if the opportunity in January had not been met, he could at least continue to work as an intermediary; Then work hard to save money, and when the time is ripe, enter the plastic industry again, and grab the opportunity of Li Chaoren's plastic flowers.
If the opportunity in January is not wrong, Lin Zhichao will have a lot of capital, and then he will have many choices, including real estate, gold speculation, plastic factories, and even shipping, trade, etc.
It's not that Lin Zhichao is a traverser, and he will definitely succeed, but he believes that he must have more advantages than others.
After a while.
My colleague Ah Cai took the time to come to Lin Zhichao's side and said sourly: "Ah Chao, congratulations, you have made a lot of money!" ”
Lin Zhichao responded with a smile: "What kind of money you make there, you have found a better way to live." Brother Cai, you can too, be thick-skinned, take the initiative to contact some people, and if you have more friends, your path will be wider. ”
Ah Cai said in disbelief: "Really? Standing on the street and shouting like you can, you can make money, isn't it helping the Golden Tooth to make money? ”
This elm pimple cannot be taught.
"We are employees, and we should not make money for our bosses! The important thing is that this society must open its face in order to be able to eat openly. ”
Ah Cai chatted absentmindedly for a few words, and then walked away.
He may just envy Lin Zhichao's success, but he never wants to change himself.
In fact, Ah Cai already despised Lin Zhichao in his heart: "In order to make a few more money, I don't want my face!" ”
He saw with his own eyes that the guests ignored Lin Zhichao, and even a little impatient, so he didn't want to learn at all. It's too embarrassing, not to mention that he doesn't think Lin Zhichao has earned a lot.
........
Two weeks later.
"You're going back to the mainland?" Li Gaofu asked curiously.
Lin Zhichao nodded and said, "Well, a friend I know asked me to follow him to the magic capital to help him deal with some property matters, and then come to Hong Kong for development." ”
Li Gaofu was a little skeptical and asked, "It can't be a lie to you, right?" ”
"A figure with a head and a face, what to do with a poor man. Besides, he can't fool me. ”
"Okay, then you pay attention to safety, the mainland is not peaceful!"
Lin Zhichao nodded, then took out 200 Hong Kong dollars to Chen Shufang, and then said: "Cousin-in-law, you are about to have a child, there must be a lot of places to use the money, you can take this money and use it in an emergency." ”
Although Chen Shufang's eyes were hot at 200 Hong Kong dollars, she didn't dare to take it without permission, but looked at Li Gaofu.
Li Gaofu naturally refused, and he had to return the money to Lin Zhichao.
"Zhichao, what are you doing, you don't owe us, we live together."
Lin Zhichao said very resolutely: "Brother Gao Fu, this is for my cousin-in-law's emergency use, giving birth to a child is a big deal, you can't be sloppy, remember to go to the hospital to give birth when the time comes." 200 Hong Kong dollars is not useful to me. ”
After some prevarication, in the end, Lin Zhichao prevailed.
Li Gaofu also knows that Lin Zhichao has done a lot of intermediary work recently, and he should earn 2,000 yuan; Now that he is appreciated by the big boss, he has surpassed him in his achievements.
He sighed in his heart that his cousin was really a talent, and in the four months he had been in Hong Kong, he had been more successful than himself for many years; I only work 150 yuan a month, and I have to support so many people, including sending money to my parents in the mainland.
"Your bed is for you, you're always welcome here!"
Lin Zhichao didn't refuse, because he didn't know if 'that thing' was true, so he nodded and left himself a way back.
He still has almost 1,800 yuan in his hand, assuming that in January next year (1947), he will not get a lot of money, and he will really only have to live frugally.
To tell the truth, he learned the diligence of the tycoons of his predecessors, but he did not learn frugality, and his reason was that he was growing his body.
Recently he has earned more than two thousand, and with his salary, it stands to reason that he can save even more; However, Lin Zhichao chooses to eat in restaurants and teahouses every day at noon and evening, so the expenses are naturally large.
If he doesn't get rich in the future, Lin Zhichao already plans to save a little bit and save money to start a business.
