"It’s good for Han Yi to be transferred there. A man should climb up the ladder while he’s young. Bai Jun is also in Z City now, working in the municipal governnt. When you move there, you both can take care of each other," said Second Uncle about Han Yi, then ntioning Bai Jun.
Lin Wan raised an eyebrow, not expecting that Bai Jun was already in Z City.
"My Second Uncle is in municipal too, and my brother is in the audit bureau there. Why didn’t you say so earlier? When did Bai Jun get transferred?"
"Not long ago. Your Second Uncle is always busy with his affairs, no ti to worry about the kids. Luckily, he got transferred to the right place this ti. Xiao Wan, when Bai Jun settles there, you all should support each other," Second Auntie was most worried about her son, who had been away for so long that it was hard to et him.
"I get it, Second Auntie. Once I’m back, I’ll ask my brother. They might know each other."
"Now that Xiao Yi is settled, it’s just Bai Jun left. He’s in his late twenties, about the sa age as Xiao Yi. Look, your child with Bai Xu is already three or four years old. He still hasn’t found a partner. Xiao Wan, when you get there, keep an eye out for good girls for Bai Jun. Spare your Second Auntie the worry," Grandma said, placing Xiao Wan’s favorite dish on her plate with a smile.
"I understand, Grandma."
"Exactly, I’m so worried about him. Look, Xiao Jie is about to get married, and look at him, still not anxious at all," sighed Second Auntie.
Second Auntie’s words made Lin Wan raise her eyebrows. Did she just approve of Shen Jie’s matter?
Seeing Shen Jie’s shy look, Lin Wan figured she was probably right.
Seeing that Grandma was in good shape and seed happy staying at Second Uncle’s house, Lin Wan felt relieved.
She didn’t stay long. After lunch, she sat in Grandma’s room for a while, and before leaving, Lin Wan ntioned to Second Uncle about the opening of her factory, asking for his help with the ribbon-cutting. After all, it wasn’t her main focus today, so she didn’t want to bother them further.
When she went out, it was still raining, which made the air much fresher. She thought of stopping by at the team to pick up Sister Xiao Jia along the way. Unexpectedly, she t Sister-in-law Zhang on the road.
"Saozi?" Lin Wan slowly drove the car to where Saozi was standing and called out.
"Xiao Wan? What are you doing here?" Sister-in-law Zhang was very surprised.
"I had a visit to my Second Uncle’s house. Hurry, get in the car."
Sister-in-law Zhang quickly closed the umbrella and got into Xiao Wan’s car. "Are you going ho now?"
"Yes, I am."
Seeing Sister-in-law Zhang sighing heavily and looking sowhat unhappy, Lin Wan asked puzzled, "What’s going on?"
"It’s nothing, just got replaced at work," Lin Wan realized it was only a little past one, not even ti to clock out yet.
"What happened?"
"The leader’s niece ca over and directly terminated my employnt. Sigh, after working there for so many years, I got dismissed just like that," said Sister-in-law Zhang with much grievance.
Lin Wan raised her eyebrows, suddenly smiled, which startled Sister-in-law Zhang as she couldn’t grasp what Lin Wan ant.
"Saozi, how much skill did you learn over the years inside?" Lin Wan asked.
Sister-in-law Zhang thought Lin Wan assud she got laid off due to incompetence, and with a strained neck, she replied defiantly, "Like that chef’s skills, I’ve learned seventy to eighty percent. I’m not bragging, I can handle the cooking myself now."
"Haha, that’s great. Sister-in-law Zhang, losing this job is a blessing for you," Lin Wan’s words puzzled Zhang Cuiping even more.
"What’s going on, Xiao Wan? How is it good for to lose my job?"
"Saozi, you know I’ve started a clothing factory, right?"
"I know, I know, but I’m not skilled in making clothes,"
Lin Wan shook her head. "Saozi, I’m not talking about working there, I an the canteen. We are thinking about outsourcing the canteen. Recently we haven’t found a suitable contractor. Since Saozi no longer has work, you could consider taking up the canteen contract at our factory."
Now this surprised Zhang Cuiping. "Xiao Wan, are you really outsourcing the canteen at your factory?"
Lin Wan’s factory was well known to her. It was on the way to the city, not far from the military district. If they really contracted the canteen there, it was quite a good opportunity.
"Saozi, our factory has just over fifty people at most. Few people, but our canteen is big. We’ve already discussed, the monthly rent is set at one hundred yuan, plus..." Lin Wan explained her thoughts and the situation to Saozi. "Although we have few people now, I can assure you within two years, our factory’s workforce will surely grow to one or two hundred. Also, around our factory, the vicinity is planned to be industrial in the coming years. There won’t be few construction workers. We can allow you to open a back door and window for takeaway. But outsiders coming in to eat must be separated by a solid wall, to prevent outside personnel from entering."
