Chapter 372 Mingmei has come looking for me.
Chapter 372 Mingmei has come looking for me.
Lin Yuyao wasn't familiar with him, so she looked at Song Qin.
Song Qin thought for a moment and nodded to Lin Yuyao.
Lin Yuyao then said, "Alright, then I'll keep you. A one-month trial period, how does that sound?"
"no problem."
"The salary is still based on a base salary plus commission, with a 20% discount during the probation period."
"can."
He doesn't care about money; what he cares about is realizing his self-worth.
He had read their magazine and felt that this was where he could realize his self-worth.
And so, they gained another editor.
Lin Yuyao told him to come to work tomorrow, and asked Ye Xiaotong to help tidy up an empty workstation today.
That evening, she told Fu Huaiyi about it, and Fu Huaiyi was quite surprised.
"Chen Bingzhi has become an editor at your magazine?"
"Yes, I even quit my secure job."
"He can resign? It's more likely he's on unpaid leave."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
Oh yeah, she'd completely forgotten about that.
How could someone with connections like them possibly resign to start their own business? They'd most likely be on unpaid leave.
People can go back anytime they want.
Oh dear, she felt sorry for a long time.
How many people have you recruited?
"He's the only one right now. Two more came today, but unfortunately neither of them are quite suitable."
"Then recruit them gradually."
Lin Yuyao nodded. That's what she said, but how could she not be anxious?
The manuscripts just kept piling up.
And reporters, they're indispensable too.
After all, they also have a celebrity entertainment section. Without excellent reporters, how can the entertainment section thrive?
A few more days passed, and I still hadn't found someone I was satisfied with.
Song Qin said to Lin Yuyao, "Yuyao, I think your standards are a bit too high."
Lin Yuyao: "Are your requirements high?"
"Yes, there aren't many people doing this now. It's already good if you can find someone who knows a little bit about it."
Ok?
Lin Yuyao looked at Chen Bingzhi.
Chen Bingzhi nodded in agreement, “Sister Song is right. It’s good enough to find someone who knows the basics. Otherwise, by your standards, we’d have to look in Hong Kong and Taiwan. But how much can we pay them? We can’t afford their demands.”
Lin Yuyao frowned silently.
Song Qin then said, "How about this, let's find someone who knows a little bit to do it first. Experience can only be accumulated slowly by giving it to someone else."
Lin Yuyao nodded. "That makes sense. Next time someone comes, you should interview them. Otherwise, I can't help but ask them some questions that might be difficult for them."
"Okay, then let's have someone else come for an interview tomorrow."
With one more editor, Song Qin, things are much easier, but she remains the main force in reviewing manuscripts.
Song Qin and Chen Bingzhi were responsible for reviewing the manuscripts, while Lin Yuyao was responsible for content integration and finance.
Ye Xiaotong ran errands for them.
Every day, I'm responsible for providing meals for several people, receiving and sending packages, organizing account information for future payments, cleaning, and so on.
When she first arrived, she said she had plenty of free time, but she felt guilty even taking eighty yuan.
She felt that Yuyao was giving her so much money out of kindness, and she almost couldn't resist asking Yuyao to lower her salary.
Now that she's busy, she finally feels at ease.
A month passed in the blink of an eye, and Yuyao gave her a raise, giving her one hundred yuan.
Ye Xiaotong looked at her in surprise, "Why did you get a raise?"
Lin Yuyao: “…”
I've only ever heard of people asking why their wages were reduced, this is the first time I've ever heard of people asking why their wages were increased.
"There was a one-month trial period with a 20% discount. Now that the trial period is over, I'm giving you 100."
"So many," she muttered to herself.
Song Qin laughed from across the table, "You're getting more and more work! Look at you, running up and down the stairs so many times every day, you've just gained a little weight and you've already lost it all again."
Perhaps because they were both women, Song Qin felt great sympathy for Ye Xiaotong's plight and usually took good care of her.
Hearing Song Qin say that, Ye Xiaotong touched her face shyly and said in a low voice, "I've gained quite a bit of weight. I weighed myself at the store yesterday."
As they were talking, someone knocked on the door.
Everyone looked towards the doorway and saw a beautiful woman standing there.
Song Qin immediately asked, "Is this young lady also here for an interview?"
She didn't answer, but instead scanned Lin Yuyao and Ye Xiaotong's faces back and forth before finally asking uncertainly, "Which of you is Lin Yuyao?"
Lin Yuyao recognized her; wasn't this Mingmei? She had been to the bookstore twice before.
"Yes, it's me, Miss Ming. You wanted to see me?"
Mingmei sized up Lin Yuyao for a few seconds before saying, "Oh, it's you. So you have a sister too."
Lin Yuyao glanced at Ye Xiaotong.
Because of their ancestral blood ties, they do indeed share some similarities, a regional similarity.
The similarity is so great that it's not impossible to tell them apart.
Unless she only vaguely remembers what he looked like.
"Yes, this is my sister."
In fact, Ye Xiaotong is only a few months younger than Lin Yuyao.
"Miss Ming, may I ask what brings you here?"
Mingmei crossed her arms and looked at her. "You recognize me?"
“I saw you twice when I was working at the bookstore downstairs.”
"Oh, right, I've met you twice too. How do you know my name?"
"I heard it from Yi Yunshuo," she answered truthfully.
Mingmei paused for a moment, somewhat surprised.
She heard her name from Yi Yunshuo, not from Fu Huaiyi.
"Has Fu Huaiyi never mentioned me to you?"
Lin Yuyao shook her head, "No."
Mingmei suddenly smiled. "Miss Lin, would you be interested in having a coffee at the cafe across the street?"
Lin Yuyao didn't know what she was there for, but trouble always needs to be dealt with.
She readily agreed, "Okay."
"Ms. Lin, please."
The two of them went out one after the other.
Ye Xiaotong said, "Why do I have a feeling they've come looking for trouble? Sister Song, will Yuyao be in trouble? Should we go and check on her?"
"Speak," she said, quickly walking to the window and craning her neck to look down.
“Nothing will happen in broad daylight.” However, Song Qin still looked serious and muttered, “Who is this person?”
Then he looked at Chen Bingzhi and asked, "Bingzhi, do you know him?"
Chen Bingzhi nodded and said, "I know her. She's Ming Mei, the daughter of Minister Ming."
Song Qin: "Huh? Then why didn't you say anything just now?"
"I know her, but I'm not familiar with her."
"So what does she mean?"
"I don't know, but I did hear before that the Ming family and the Fu family were going to have a marriage alliance. Later, Fu Huaiyi married Yuyao, so I thought it was just a rumor."
Song Qin suddenly realized, "That's why I felt something was off. The way she looked at Yu Yao and the things she said were all very strange. I was thinking that Yu Yao hadn't made any enemies with anyone except that family. So there's this story behind it."
Ye Xiaotong, who was by the window, watched them enter the coffee shop across the street one after the other and choose a seat by the window.
