Suddenly, she heard the sound of the door opening and closing, and a fatty in his fifties walked in. Hun Shunru thought that the chairman had come out and was about to stand up to greet him.
The beautiful secretary stood up and said,"President Wu, are you done talking?"
Yao Shunru also stood up and respectfully nodded at Fatty with a smile.
Fatty smiled and said," I'm done. If someone is looking for me, just say that I have something to do in Hong Kong. I'll be back in ten days to half a month."”So he was the vice president here.
"Alright, take care." the beautiful secretary said with a bright smile.
President Wu walked to the elevator, and the elevator just opened. A middle-aged man in a suit walked out of the elevator. After shaking hands with President Wu, he walked into the office and said to the beautiful secretary,"I made an appointment with the chairman yesterday.”
The beautiful secretary smiled and said," Hello, Lawyer Zhou. I know. I've already arranged to meet you in the morning. You're really punctual. Please."”As he spoke, he led Lawyer Zhou to the east end of the corridor.
Yao Shunru sat down again. Just as she was doing nothing, the beautiful secretary walked back and said with a smile,"I'm sorry, I was just about to find a time to arrange for you to meet him, but he came on time. You'll have to wait a while.”
"It's okay. Thank you."
"I haven't done anything for you yet. There's no need to thank me. There's yesterday's newspaper on the newspaper rack inside. If you sit inside and read it, you might have to wait for more than twenty minutes.”
"Thank you. It seems that the chairman's schedule is very tight.”
"Coincidentally, there are five people lined up this morning. The next one is Manager Gong from the finance department. However, you can push back your own people. If the chairman is willing to see you, you can arrange it first.”
"Thank you. I'll go in and read the newspaper. I won't disturb your work.”Yao Shunru was no longer as restrained as she was when she first arrived. She walked into the office as she spoke.
The size of the office inside was the same as the office outside. It was tidied up neatly. There were two filing cabinets on the south wall of the door, two bookcases under the north window, a set of leather sofas in the middle, and a newspaper rack beside the sofas.
He walked over and casually took down a newspaper. He sat on the sofa and opened it. It was a copy of the Central Daily News. He saw an eye-catching piece of news: " The Changchun National Army broke the blockade of the bandits."
He had once heard from Li Shaohua that the national army had suffered a crushing defeat on the northeast battlefield, and Chen Cheng had been dismissed from his post. Changchun had been surrounded by the Chinese army since the end of May. The airport in Changchun had already fallen, and the food of the 100,000 soldiers in the city was supplied by airdrops.
According to the associated press, more than 40 flights a day were needed to meet the demand, and the air force could not do it. There were still hundreds of thousands of people in the city who were in deep trouble. He thought that he could only think in the opposite direction about the news from the Central Daily News. Changchun would be finished sooner or later.
He was not interested in the fate of the National Party at all. He got up and put the Central Daily News on the shelf. He saw that there were three other newspapers on the newspaper rack. He took them down one by one and flipped through them. There was a copy of the " Security Morning News," a copy of the " Financial News," and a copy of the " Shen Bao."
In fact, these newspapers were all ordered for the chairman. The secretary would send the newspapers to the chairman's desk every day. After the chairman finished reading them, the secretary would take them back and put them on the newspaper rack the next day.
Yao Shunru took down Shen Bao and sat down to read it again. The official name of Shen Bao was Shen Jiang Xin Bao. It was a famous, unique, and influential old newspaper.
Yao Shunru wanted to look at the recruitment information. The recruitment advertisement column of the newspaper immediately attracted his attention. He sat down and focused on reading through them one by one. He found two job advertisements.
One was that the Jiangsu Province Salt Industry Department was recruiting a number of financial personnel, regardless of gender; One was that Shanghai Yong 'an Co., Ltd. was hiring a cashier and a statistics officer. The limit was for women under the age of 30.
He thought that if he couldn't apply here, he would immediately rush to the Salt Industry Hall to apply. At the same time, he also thought of Zhang Ruilian. Her family was in dire straits and she urgently needed to find a job. He had to inform her as soon as possible to apply for a job.
Yao Shunru was immersed in joy when she suddenly heard the beautiful secretary on the phone."Chairman, there is a young man surnamed Yao who wants to see you. He said that he was recommended by Professor Chu from the Eastern Business School.”
She put down the microphone and walked to the door with a smile."Mr. Yao, come with me."
Yao Shunru hurriedly stood up and placed the newspaper on the newspaper rack. He followed the beautiful secretary out of the office.
She led him toward the east end of the corridor. At this moment, he realized that the corridor was divided into east and west. The east end was short and the west end was long. The walls of the corridor were light gray, and the dark red carpet covered the entire corridor.
On both sides of the corridor were offices. The doors were tightly shut, and no sound could be heard. The entire floor was silent, as if it was isolated from the world. Fortunately, there was a soft light in the corridor.
He later found out that the people gathered on the sixth floor were all elites of Pu Xing Bank. Only a few lucky employees, who had worked hard for most of their lives, experienced ups and downs, and schemed against each other, could stay here.
At the west end of the corridor was the office of the bank's supervisor department and the reception room. At the east end of the corridor were the general manager's and deputy general manager's offices and the living room. The two rooms by the elevator were the secretary's office.
She led him to the easternmost door and gently opened it with the key. She smiled and said,"Chairman, Mr. Yao is here." Her voice was as gentle and pleasant as a bell.
Yao Shunru followed him into the office and nodded respectfully at the chairman. She greeted,""Hello, Chairman." He took out the recommendation letter in his pocket.
Just as he was about to step forward to hand it over, the female secretary hurriedly took the letter from his hand and placed it on the chairman's desk before gently withdrawing.
The chairman sat leisurely on the sofa and did not move. He glanced at the recommendation letter, looked up at Yao Shunru, and asked in Shanghainese,"Nong Si, Li 'ening?"
"I am Hunan's Changsha Ning."
"Nong Xuesa?"
"I majored in financial management."
The chairman picked up a cigar, lit it, and took a deep puff. He leisurely exhaled a wisp of smoke. He pressed the bell on the right corner of the desk, got up, and walked steadily to the big brown sofa on the other side of the desk. He then gestured for Yao Shunru to sit opposite him.
When the female secretary heard the bell, she quickly pushed the door open and walked in. President Yang instructed,"Make tea for Little Yao."
The female secretary quickly brewed a cup of tea and handed it to Yao Shunru. She also filled the chairman's teacup and placed it on the coffee table beside him. Then, he quickly retreated.
Yao Shunru took the opportunity to glance at the luxurious furnishings in the room. The walls were light blue, the carpet was green, the mahogany desk was painted, and there was a row of tall glass bookcases. The whole room was bright and clean. The ample and soft lighting blended in with the natural light outside, making it look lively.
President Yang was more than 1.7 meters tall and had a straight back. He had a ruddy complexion, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a slightly plump body. He did not look like he was in his fifties at all. "How old are you?" he asked.”
"I'm twenty-one this January.”
"Can you speak Shanghainese?"
"Usually, I'll die. I like Mandarin."
"You speak fluent English, don't you?"
"Usually, I'll die."
The chairman suddenly changed his tone and asked in English,“Doyouhaveanyplans?”Do you have any plans?
“Oh，lhaven‘tdecidedwhattodo。”(Oh, I haven't decided what to do yet.）
“Ifit‘snottoomuchtrouble,Iwouldlikesomehelp。”(If it's not too much trouble, I need your help.)）
“Justtellmewhatyou‘dlikemetodo。”(Please tell me what you want me to do.）
“Wouldyoucashthesetravelerschecks,please?”Would you please cash these traveler's checks?）
“Youlikewhatmoney？”(What kind of money do you like?）
“Itdoes‘tmakeanydifference。”(Whatever.)
“Allrightpleasewaitforamoment。”(Okay, please wait a moment.)
"Ala has a probation period." The chairman resumed speaking in Shanghainese.
"How much is the trial period?"
"Three foreheads."
"I am very grateful if you do not accept my offer.”
In fact, the chairman, Yang Guangda, was from Nan 'an, Fujian Province. He didn't like to speak Shanghainese on a daily basis. Instead, he spoke Mandarin with a Hokkien accent. Perhaps it was because of Yao Shunru's future work needs, he was specially interviewed for his ability to speak Shanghainese and English. The overall impression was not bad, so they began to talk in Mandarin.
He saw the chairman take out a cigar from the cigarette box on the coffee table. He quickly got up and picked up a lighter from the coffee table to light it for the chairman.
President Yang leaned back on the sofa and leisurely crossed his legs."To tell you the truth, I'm planning ahead. I'm taking special measures during special times. I need a personal secretary who will be directly responsible for me and complete the tasks I temporarily assign. There's no clue and no rhythm to the work. The probation period is three months. I wonder if you're willing to work?”
Yao Shunru said calmly, neither servile nor overbearing,"Thank you for your favor. I'm willing to apply.”
"Alright, it's settled then. Please thank Professor Chu for me.”Director Yang stood up and said. It seemed that the conversation had ended and he was asking her to leave.
Yao Shunru also stood up with the chairman and said,"May I ask when I will start work, Chairman?”
"Oh, how about this? You take care of your personal matters tomorrow and report back the day after tomorrow. Go straight to the secretary's office and look for Secretary Cui. She's the one who brought you in just now. I'll tell her.”
"Thank you, Chairman."
