Chapter 1183 The Intern Arrives
Yu Sui nodded in deep agreement, then looked at Shen Wenxu with newfound respect: "I didn't expect you to know how to make money at such a young age. Well done!"
Shen Wenxu said proudly, "Of course! I have such a good sister who makes money, how could I not be influenced by her?"
Yu Sui smiled and said, "The power of role models."
……
That evening, after washing up, Zuo Yan lay in bed, holding her phone, and sent a message to her senior dorm group: "I'm going to Xifulai for an internship tomorrow, you guys should be coming too, right?"
Tian Xia was the first to reply: "I've already gone to work, but I've been too busy to tell you."
Gao Qiu said accusingly, "Tian Xia, you're so disloyal! You went to work without telling us."
Tian Xia explained, "I was afraid that if I told you, you would feel pressured. But things are fine now. You can come whenever you want and have a good time."
Liao Xuan sent a message at this time: "I'm also going to start my internship tomorrow, Zuo Yan, let's go together."
Gao Qiu replied: "I'm still in City A. I won't be able to go to my internship tomorrow. I'll come find you guys when I get back."
Zuo Yan asked, "When are you coming back?"
Gao Qiu replied, "There should be three or four more days."
Zuo Yan replied, "That will be soon. I heard that many people have gone to work there. The salary at Xifulai is high, and the benefits are good. There's also delicious afternoon tea, snacks, and desserts. Going to work there is a very happy feeling."
Liao Xuan replied, "Only capable people can feel happy, right?"
Tian Xia replied: "I am the most qualified to speak on this. It is indeed very happy to work here, but there is also some pressure. There will be a two-week training before you start work. You will be taught what you need to do during this two-week period, and you will also be assigned a mentor. You don't have to worry about being left unattended."
Zuo Yan asked in surprise, "Really?"
Tian Xia replied, "It's true, that's me. But I've already finished my training period and officially started working."
Liao Xuan asked, "By the way, why did you go to work so early?"
Tian Xia replied, "I have nothing to do at home, so I might as well go to work and earn money. My commute is nearby anyway, I can just walk to work."
Liao Xuan asked, "By the way, will they arrange accommodation for us when we go to work?"
Tian Xia replied: "Yes, there are staff dormitories here, and you can choose the number of people in each room. There are single rooms, double rooms, and four-person rooms. The single rooms are apartments, while the double and four-person rooms are suites. The rooms are private, but you need to share a living room. The decoration is very nice."
She sent another WeChat message: "Should the four of us apply for a four-person room together and become roommates?"
Zuo Yan was the first to respond: "Okay, I'm willing."
Liao Xuan and Gao Qiu also agreed.
Gao Qiu asked, "Do your family members agree to you moving out?"
Tian Xia replied, "I'm an adult, and as long as things are explained clearly, my family is very open-minded."
Zuo Yan said enthusiastically, "Okay, when I come here for my internship and the HR department asks me about my accommodation, I will apply for a four-bedroom apartment."
The other three: "Okay."
Time flies, and the next day is fast approaching.
Zuo Yan got up early, washed up, put on light makeup, changed into appropriate clothes, ate the steamed buns and soy milk prepared by her family, and then drove to Xifulai.
It took more than an hour to drive there. There were many cars on the road, so the driving was slow. If it had been any later, it would have taken even longer. After arriving, she parked her car with the help of the parking lot security guard.
After getting out of the car, Zuo Yan asked the security guard, "Do I need to pay for parking?"
The security guard immediately handed Zuo Yan a small card: "Parking fee schedule."
Zuo Yan looked down and saw: Parking is free for the first three days, and after that, it costs ten yuan per day. If you rent a parking space, it costs one hundred yuan per month: "It's very cheap."
The security guard said, "We are a conscientious business, and our prices are low."
Zuo Yan smiled and said, "Then process my rental application, for one month first."
"Okay." The security guard took Zuo Yan to the office and quickly got things done. Then, the security guard took a car cover and covered Zuo Yan's car.
Zuo Yan looked at him and said, "Uncle, your service here is so good!"
The security guard was very friendly: "Of course, we'll do everything we can to help you. Go have fun without worry."
Zuo Yan was increasingly looking forward to her job: "Thank you."
The security guard waved his hand and smiled, "You're welcome."
Zuo Yan walked out of the parking lot and followed the signs to the reception area.
The job posting clearly stated that you couldn't just walk into the factory; anyone coming to work, intern, or apply for a job had to register at the reception desk first. Zuo Yan remembered the rules very well.
After registration, receptionist Gu Wenbi took the five of them to the factory.
The reception area is very busy. Recently, many people have come to work here, making the reception area even busier. Therefore, we can take several people over at once.
Upon arriving at the factory gate, Gu Wenbi spoke to the security guard, who then assigned one of them to lead the group to the personnel department.
The HR department has dedicated personnel to handle these issues. After the security guard brought the person over, he handed them over to the staff and then went to the security booth. Since there were a total of 10 security guards, one of them had to stay in the booth.
Gu Wenbi handed a form to the staff member and then said goodbye and left.
The staff looked at the form, checked it one by one, and then began to arrange the next steps. This was not the first time they had handled such a matter; the company had long since developed a complete set of procedures.
Zuo Yan found the whole process very novel and successfully applied for a four-person room when applying for a dormitory.
After finishing their business, the staff took them to their accommodations. They needed to settle their lodgings first so they could focus on their work.
Everything went smoothly, and after the arrangements were made, the staff took them to the cafeteria to get meal cards. From then on, they could use the cards to eat in the cafeteria, buy things in the supermarket, or make purchases at Yongle. As long as it was within the scenic area, they could use the cards for everything.
Looking at the card, which resembled a bank card, Zuo Yan felt that living here was incredibly convenient. Moreover, the card was connected to her mobile phone, just like a bank card, and she could directly top it up.
After connecting the card to the scenic area's app, Zuo Yan topped up 500 yuan at once, and the money arrived instantly.
Then a dialog box pops up: You can get a 5% discount if your spending is over 100 yuan. Have fun!
"It's so convenient." Zuo Yan was extremely satisfied.
With the card in hand, Zuo Yan immediately bought lunch. After swiping the card, the balance was immediately displayed, making it easy to see: "I'll go to the small supermarket to buy some daily necessities later."
Zuo Yan found a seat and sat down, ready to enjoy her meal. However, at that moment, her phone rang.
She took out her phone and saw that it was a message from Liao Xuan: "Zuo Yan, where are you? I just got to the cafeteria, want to eat together?"
Zuo Yan immediately looked around and said, "I'm in the cafeteria too. I've already bought my food and I'm about to eat."
Liao Xuan said, "Then wait for me a moment, I'll go buy food right away."
Zuo Yan replied, "Okay."
Liao Xuan quickly bought lunch and then came to find Zuo Yan. After Zuo Yan stood up, Liao Xuan easily spotted her and immediately walked over: "Zuo Yan."
Zuo Yan pointed to the seat opposite her: "You sit here."
"Hmm." Liao Xuan sat down opposite Zuo Yan and asked excitedly, "Why didn't I see you?"
Zuo Yan said, "I should have come a little earlier. You can't use your phone while the staff are talking, otherwise I would definitely have contacted you."
Liao Xuan nodded in agreement: "Yes, we can't use our phones, otherwise I would have contacted you already."
Zuo Yan smiled and said, "It's not too late to contact me now."
Liao Xuan asked with concern, "Did you apply for that dormitory?"
Zuo Yan nodded and gave Liao Xuan a reassuring look: "Applyed."
Liao Xuan patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. I was afraid you would apply, so I didn't apply. But if you didn't apply, we'll apply for it later."
Zuo Yan said, "No need, I've already gone over and packed up. You can come with me in a bit."
Liao Xuan excitedly replied, "Okay."
The two enjoyed a delicious lunch, and afterwards went to their lodgings together.
Upon opening the door, Liao Xuan exclaimed "Wow!" her surprise evident: "It's huge!"
Zuo Yan said, "Yes, I was quite surprised when I saw it, so I asked a staff member. Guess what their answer was?"
Liao Xuan blinked her big eyes, full of curiosity: "How did you answer?"
Zuo Yan smiled and said, "She said the land here is cheap, so the buildings are large, and she told us to stay here without worry and to contact the dormitory manager if we have any problems."
Liao Xuan blinked: "There's a dormitory supervisor too?"
Zuo Yan nodded: "Yes, it's in the house right at the entrance to the residential area. There are two dormitory managers. I greeted them when I passed by before, and they were very nice."
Liao Xuan said, "I'll say hello when I pass by later."
Just then, Zuo Yan's phone rang again. She looked and saw that it was Tian Xia calling her. She quickly answered, "Tian Xia, what's up?"
Tian Xia asked with great concern, "I just got off work. Have you come over yet? Have you eaten? I'll take you to eat."
Zuo Yan said, "I've already eaten and met up with Liao Xuan. I'm at my residence now. Do you want to come over?"
Tian Xia replied without hesitation, "Yes, tell me your location and I'll come find you right away."
Zuo Yan said, "Go eat first, and then come find us."
"Okay." Tian Xia paused for a moment. "See you later."
Zuo Yan replied, "Okay."
Tian Xia immediately went to the cafeteria for a meal. After eating, she came over according to the address Zuo Yan had given her: "I had heard that the accommodations were good, but I didn't expect them to be this good. They're even better than my home."
Liao Xuan chimed in, "I was also very surprised. If the university had such good accommodations, I would definitely not want to graduate."
“Let’s not talk about school anymore. We’re already in society, we need to look forward.” Zuo Yan looked at Tian Xia, “Would you like to move in with us?”
Tian Xia said, "Yes, I'll apply to my supervisor in a bit. He's very easy to talk to and approved it right away. After I get off work, I'll go back and pack my things, and I can stay here for the night."
Zuo Yan kindly said, "We can help you move."
Tian Xia smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you two beautiful ladies."
Zuo Yan smiled and said, "You're too kind."
……
In the office, Shen Xuening looked at the person who suddenly appeared and was pleasantly surprised: "Why didn't you tell me you were coming?"
Qin Yaoyao walked over and hugged Shen Xuening, clearly having missed her terribly: "Wasn't this to give you a surprise?"
Shen Xuening hugged Qin Yaoyao from behind and patted her back: "Congratulations, you've achieved your goal. I'm even planning to throw you a welcome-back banquet tonight."
Qin Yaoyao refused: "I don't want a welcome banquet. It's uncomfortable with elders around."
Shen Xuening curled her lips into a smile: "Just the few of us."
Qin Yaoyao immediately changed her mind: "Okay then."
Shen Xuening looked at Qin Yaoyao: "Did your graduation go smoothly?"
Qin Yaoyao replied without any pressure, "It will definitely go smoothly. I was a top student in school, and I've been working at the grassroots level here with you. I've learned a lot, and I'm quite impressive."
As Shen Xuening listened to Qin Yaoyao's words, her smile grew wider and wider: "Then it's truly an honor for a top student like you to come here for an internship."
“Let’s not talk about these things between us.” Qin Yaoyao changed the subject. “I heard you just went to a remote mountain village to collect red beans.”
Shen Xuening said, "Yes, the harvest is complete, and a new batch of seeds has been sent over. People have probably already started planting them."
"You want to plant a second batch?" Qin Yaoyao was a little surprised. "I heard that people in remote mountain villages are not easy to get along with. Will they listen to you? What if they cause trouble?"
Shen Xuening said confidently, "The money is with me, they wouldn't dare."
Qin Yaoyao nodded thoughtfully: "That's true. Now that they've tasted the benefits, they'll only listen to you more in the future."
Shen Xuening smiled and said, "Yes, I'm confident in these things."
Qin Yaoyao had never been to a remote mountain village, so she was a little curious: "Can I go there and see them?"
Shen Xuening said, "I can only take you there when I go; it's not that simple over there."
Qin Yaoyao blinked: "What do you mean?"
Shen Xuening explained, "The reason it's a remote mountain village is naturally because their minds are not as enlightened as those outside. Otherwise, they would have moved away to make a living long ago. I even had to take action when I first went there, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to control them at all. Don't be fooled by their respectful attitude towards me now; once I lose my deterrent power, I don't know what they might do."
Qin Yaoyao understood what Shen Xuening meant: "Sister-in-law, then next time you go over, please call me."
Shen Xue Ning agreed: "Okay."
Qin Yaoyao said, "Sister-in-law, I came to find you as soon as I arrived. I'm a little tired, so I'll go and rest for a bit."
Shen Xuening waved her hand: "Go ahead."
Qin Yaoyao hugged Shen Xuening again before turning and leaving.
When Shen Yingying learned that Qin Yaoyao was coming, she immediately went home to see her: "Sister Yaoyao, I missed you so much."
Qin Yaoyao was packing her things when she heard this and immediately came over and hugged Shen Yingying: "Yingying, I missed you so much too. I brought you a gift, I guarantee you'll like it."
Shen Yingying's eyes lit up: "What gift?"
