Chapter 94 It's a wise decision to listen to my daughter-in-law
Chapter 94: Listening to your wife is a wise decision
"Does Miss Shan think I won't get into the top ten?"
Shan Zhenzhen looked at her with his nostrils turned upward, "Yunmo, as far as your grades are at the bottom of the rankings, it's okay if you don't hold back our school. You still want to get into the top ten in the city. It's ridiculous."
As if echoing Shan Zhenzhen's words, many people around him laughed mockingly.
Yun Mo looked around at the people who were laughing the most fiercely, "You don't believe it? Do you want to make a bet?"
Shan Zhenzhen: "Who is afraid of you? Tell me, what do you want to bet on?"
"I don't lack anything, I just lack money. How about using money as a bet?"
"Momo."
Hearing that Yun Mo wanted to gamble with someone, Zeng Fang quickly pulled Yun Mo's sleeve and signaled her not to mess around.
Yun Mo smiled and patted Zeng Fang, then turned around and continued to provoke Shan Zhenzhen, "How about it? Do you dare?"
Shan Zhenzhen slapped the table and said, "Okay, just bet money. How much do you want to bet?"
"Too little is boring, and if you have too much, you may not be able to afford it. You can decide for yourself."
Those who can get into Nanming are all students from relatively wealthy families who are not short of money, especially Shan Zhenzhen, whose family owns a hotel and there are several hotels in Guangjiang City.
"Bet 100 yuan, Yunmo, do you dare to take it?"
Yun Mo looked at the other people around her, "Are you guys together?"
Those families are not as well off as Shan Zhenzhen, but they are better than ordinary families. One said they bet 20, and the other said they bet 50.
Yunmo accepted the deposit in full and asked Zeng Fang to find a notebook to record the amount deposited by each person one by one.
After recording, Yunmo also asked each of them to sign their names.
After signing her name, Shan Zhenzhen asked her arrogantly, "Yunmo, what will you say if you lose?"
"Of course I am willing to admit defeat and honor your bet."
"Okay! I'm just waiting to see you lose everything."
"Just wait."
Yun Mo put her notebook away with a smile. The total of these bets was nearly 300 yuan, which was enough for a year's rent.
As soon as get out of class was over, Zeng Fang pulled Yun Mo out of the classroom and whispered, "Momo, you are too impulsive. There are thousands of senior high school students in Jiang City, and most of them are top academics. Although you are My time scores have improved quite quickly, but there is still a big gap between me and the real academic masters.”
"It's okay. If you really fail the exam, you can just pay the money. It's not like you can't afford the compensation."
"..."
Zeng Fang pouted, "It's several hundred yuan, don't you feel bad?"
Yun Mo smiled brightly and looked relaxed, "Once people are under pressure, they will be motivated. I also want to push myself. Maybe I can push out my full potential and really get into the top ten.
Wouldn’t that be better?”
When Zeng Fang heard this, she thought it made sense and said, "Let's bet on which one of us has a higher ranking. The loser will treat the winner to a big meal."
"OK."
—
After drying the clothes, Lingchuan went out and returned to the old street.
"Kawako, why are you back? What's the matter?"
The small courtyard was so quiet that there was no sound at all. Ling Jiang was obviously the only one at home.
"Brother, isn't sister-in-law at home?"
"I sent Chunhua and Jia Le to the kindergarten. They will be back in a while."
While Li Li was away, Lingchuan told Ling Jiang about his purpose of coming. Out of some selfish motives, he did not tell Ling Jiang that this was Yun Mo's suggestion.
"Brother, in doing business, there are profits and losses. It's okay to say you make money, but if you lose money, your sister-in-law will definitely have objections and make trouble with you. If you get a fixed salary, you don't have to take risks, and it's good for you and your sister-in-law.
There is a guarantee.”
Ling Jiang knew that he was not good at business, and he was even more uncertain about reselling electronic watches. He had been so anxious that he couldn't sleep well these days. Ling Chuan's proposal undoubtedly relieved him.
"Okay, Kawako, I'll do as you say."
Although Lingchuan had guessed that his eldest brother would agree to his proposal before coming here, when faced with the other party's unreserved trust and open-minded and simple smile, he could not help but feel a sense of shame in his heart.
Just a few days ago, he categorically told his wife that his eldest brother was his unshakable bottom line.
But now, his belief was shaken because of his wife's words.
"Hey, Kawako, it's a rare visitor."
At this moment, Li Li came back from sending her children off. When she saw Ling Chuan sitting in the main room, she suddenly joked in a weird way.
"Sister-in-law."
Li Li sat down opposite Lingchuan and glanced at him sideways, "I heard that you are doing business with someone now? Have you made a fortune?"
"It's just the beginning, it's not so fast yet."
Li Li curled her lips and said with a smile on her face, "You have married a daughter-in-law from a wealthy family. You have become stronger and more courageous. You want to follow others' example of doing business in the sea. I won't stop you from getting rich."
But your eldest brother is different. He is honest and kind, but he is not as smart as you, a young man. When I first married him, I only wanted him to be a down-to-earth person. I didn’t expect him to make me rich.
Anyway, I’m going to say something ugly first, if you lose money in business, I won’t pay a penny.”
Ling Jiang couldn't stand listening to his wife's words, "Well, why are you talking about this? Go, go out and buy a catty of pork and come back, and cook a good dish for Chuanzi at noon."
Li Li glared at her husband, "You just say with your mouth that you can buy meat for free? Are you taking money?"
"Didn't I give you all the money?"
"After paying the tuition for Chunhua Jiale, you only have 30 left. You don't even have a serious job now. If you don't save this money, you will be waiting for the northwest wind next month!"
"Then what I took home before, didn't you save any?"
"Save? You are talking very lightly. You can save two and show them to me."
Lingchuan was already used to the quarrels between the couple.
He directly took out the employment letter he had written by hand and put it on the table, "Sister-in-law, actually I came here today just to work for my eldest brother."
When she heard the word "work", Li Li stopped, picked up the contract on the table and shook it, "What is this?"
"Sister-in-law, I understand your concerns. Doing business does involve a lot of risks. I have considered it carefully and decided to hire my eldest brother to work for me. This is the employment letter. You can take a look at it first."
Li Li is educated in primary school and can recognize basic Chinese characters.
Li Li's eyes lit up when she saw that the employment letter stated that the monthly fixed salary was 40 yuan.
40 a month, that’s 480 a year, which is much better than working on a construction site!
When she looked at Ling Chuan again, Li Li's face turned into a smile, and her tone was a bit flattering, "Kuan Zi, are you serious? Are you giving my old Ling 40 yuan every month?"
"Yes, sister-in-law, this is just a fixed salary. If you make money, eldest brother can also get 5% of the net profit."
Li Li didn't care about the 5% commission at all. All she could think about was her monthly salary of 40 yuan, because in her opinion, doing business couldn't be that easy. It would be fine if she didn't lose money.
There were two copies of the employment letter. After Ling Jiang and Ling Chuan signed it respectively, Li Li put away Ling Jiang's copy and took it into the back room like a treasure and hid it.
"Kawako, you sit down for a while. I'm going to buy some vegetables and weigh some meat. You can have lunch at home."
As stingy as Li Li was, she actually took the initiative to buy meat, which shows how appetizing this employment letter is to her.
Lingchuan suddenly felt that listening to his wife was a very wise decision.
