Chapter 21 And secretaries and assistants
A few minutes later, Li Junhao sat in an office on the easternmost side of the second floor, enjoying the treatment of the third secretary, although the area is less than 15 square meters, but the desk, bookshelves, filing cabinets, safes, and visitor chairs are all available, allowing him to have his own independent space; And it's also a suite, he's inside, and there's a smaller cubicle outside, with two desks across the middle hallway, where the secretary and assistant are located.
Although he is only a first-class attaché who enjoys the treatment of the third secretary, he is also a formal diplomat in the top 20 in the Consulate General in Shanghai who enjoys diplomatic privileges and immunities, so once he officially takes office, he also has his own subordinate team, including secretaries, assistants and cars (a 1935 Ford car, two years old).
Secretary Milia Degardo is a Californian girl, 24 years old, graduated from university, majoring in administrative management, joined the company for a year and a half, has been engaged in grassroots secretarial work in the commercial department, this time transferred to the full-time secretary is also promoted.
Bodyguard and assistant Brown Kerst is a black guy, from New Jersey, 23 years old, college prep, has one year of experience in the Marine Corps, and now has a military position, before he was mainly engaged in the work of a driver and bodyguard in the commercial department, from this aspect, he can be transferred as an assistant, should be taken care of.
Everyone was young, and they soon became warm, and after introducing and talking to each other, they got along well.
-----------------
After chatting for a while, he returned to his office, checked the system panel, and sure enough, as expected, a new message appeared: "The host is successfully hired, and the reward is 100 gold coins." ”
This message made him confirm his thoughts: the system has a hidden task, but when he learns about it, it will be completed later; As for what can't be done, I'm afraid it won't be shown.
From this aspect, it seems that this is a good way, I have to go out more in the future, maybe I can trigger more hidden tasks, although the reward of one or two is not much, but I can't hold back the current Shanghai maritime more! If you want to come to the harvest, there will be no less, and now there will be 100 more gold coins!
-----------------
Seeing that it was noon, Brown and Milia, as old employees, naturally took the initiative to knock on the door and come in, leading him to the restaurant to eat, and constantly introducing their new boss to their colleagues along the way.
For all colleagues, Li Junhao greeted politely, with the help of smart glasses and strong memory, everyone he saw was remembered by him, and several of the light spots were still yellow, which was obviously hostile. This is interesting.,I just came to report.,You shouldn't have offended anyone.,So these are hostile factions? But which faction do you belong to?
The Consulate General has its own kitchen and dining room, employing professional chefs, and all staff can eat here for free. Of course, the official diplomats and a few administrative directors have their own small dining rooms, and the meals here are of course much more elaborate than the large dining rooms used by the staff, and even champagne, red wine, and coffee are served in unlimited quantities! Regardless of the restaurant, meals and drinks are free, including Coca-Cola.
As a newcomer, Li Junhao did not go to the small restaurant alone, but dined with Brown and Milia in the big restaurant, sat down with some colleagues from the commercial office, chatted and dined, because he was young, easy-going, and interesting to chat, and quickly became familiar with everyone; As a formal diplomat, he has no shelf, and has won unanimous praise from his colleagues.
Because the consulate employs many Chinese as grassroots staff, the restaurant actually serves Chinese food, and there are special Chinese chefs, but because it was the first time to eat here, Li Junhao still decided to eat Western food, eating two steaks and a large salad, a bowl of creamy mushroom soup, but not drinking wine and coffee - not that he doesn't drink, but he has no love for champagne and red wine, and he doesn't want to drink more coffee.
However, because there was alcohol served in the restaurant, it reminded him of beer, and his heart was a little nervous. I asked the waiter in the restaurant, and there was beer, but it was all yellow beer and dark beer, and there was no white beer. Well, he asked for a jar of American-made canned lager, and drank it while following Hernan and Chrissy back to the office, presumably quenching his thirst! There is not even a kettle in the office, he can't drink tea if he wants to, the assistant and the secretary are all Americans, they can only make coffee and cereal, and they don't know anything about tea, so he can only figure out how to do it later.
Back in the office, Li Junhao drank beer and continued to look through the internal documents of the consulate that Chrissy took from the administrative department to understand the current situation and related work......
-----------------
Because it was a weekend, Friday afternoons were only a two-hour shift, and those who did not have emergency work could arrange their own actions. At half-past three in the afternoon, Chrissy and Hernin came to ask if he was okay, and he learned about the rule. Of course it's okay, it's good for everyone to get off work together!
When he went to work, he came in the car of the hotel, and when he got off work, he drove his own car, although it was only an old car that was more than two years old, but it was also considered a successful class in this era, and it was also a high-end person in Shanghai.
It was not yet four o'clock when he returned to the International Hotel, but he didn't want to go out anymore, and was ready to wait for Xiaohu to come back and see how the renting house was going.
Today's half-day shift, after listening to the flickering of the political counselor, and reaching an understanding with the first secretary of the commercial department, officially joined, enjoying the treatment of the third secretary's independent office and secretary, assistant plus car, everything is initially on the right track! However, he also sensitively found that there were some cats between the upper floors of the consulate, but because the time was still short, he still didn't know a lot of things, so he could only watch and see, and he was not in a hurry to stand in line or anything.
-----------------
At five o'clock, Xiaohu came back and brought back a lot of food as usual.
When the two were eating, Xiaohu told him that he had found two more suitable houses, and he could see them the day after tomorrow, which was of course good news.
However, Xiaohu's next words made him a little unhappy - the big boss asked Xiaohu to help him finish the house and then went back to Phoenix Village, but he didn't say what the reason was.
In this regard, Li Junhao has some speculation, it should be that the elders of Phoenix Village are dissatisfied with the cooperation between the Lei brothers and sisters and him, a foreigner, and the other party wants to clear up the relationship! This is a pity for him, although the scale of this team is not large, but the combat ability is still there, and the previous cooperation is not bad, I thought that I could cooperate for a long time, but I didn't expect a change.
Alas! There is no way to do it, who made him a foreigner?
