Chapter 159 The News Brought by Huang Yi
When Luo Gang and others saw that Zhang Qiyuan received 10,000 yuan transferred from the developer, they were stunned.
Didn't they say 3,000 before filming the video? How come it's already 10,000 after filming?
"Their marketing team always says that our videos are great and they plan to use them for promotion. How about this, we split the 10,000 yuan 20:80, you 20:00 and I 80:00."
As he spoke, Zhang Qiyuan transferred two thousand yuan to Luo Gang. After all, Luo Gang had been helping him shoot videos during this period of time.
"Then I won't be polite!" Luo Gang didn't beat around the bush and accepted it happily.
It was already noon when they finished visiting the store. Zhang Qiyuan and Luo Gang, along with Wang Yong, Sister He and others, had just returned to the store when they saw Huang Yi waiting at the door of their store with a suitcase.
"Master Huang, what's going on? Why didn't you call me?" Zhang Qiyuan said quickly after getting off the car.
Huang Yi looked a little embarrassed and asked, "Xiao Zhang, can I come to work here?"
"Of course, you're welcome anytime. Come on, come in and sit for a while." Zhang Qiyuan quickly opened the door and helped Huang Yi bring in the suitcase.
"Huang Yi, aren't you following Xiong Wei and his wife?" Sister He asked with concern.
Hearing this, Huang Yi's face turned red. "I have been with him and his wife for so many years, working as a driver and a cook, and picking up their children from school at night. They know that I have no money, but they force me to pay the rent and utilities. Aren't they trying to force me to leave so that they can make room for that China Resources property consultant?"
"What's going on? Why do we have to vacate the room for China Resources' property consultant?" Wang Yong asked puzzledly.
Huang Yi organized his words and said, "A few days ago, Xiong Wei hooked up with a property consultant from China Resources and invited that consultant to his house for dinner every night. The day before yesterday, he heard that the consultant was renting a house, so he wanted to force me out and rent a house with that consultant from China Resources."
"He's just a real estate consultant. Is it necessary for me to force you to leave just to seduce him? Aren't you childhood friends?" Sister He said.
Huang Yi laughed at himself and said, "I finally understand. If a person has no money, he will be hated by gods and ghosts. How can he not be rich?"
"Before I left, he calculated with me the rent, water and electricity bills for all these years in detail. I drove for him, cooked for him, and picked up his children, but he never mentioned a word about it. He even forced me to write him an IOU," said Huang Yi.
"This is quite amazing!" Luo Gang smacked his lips.
Xiong Wei and Huang Yi are childhood friends. Not only did he drive Huang Yi away, he even forced him to write an IOU. This shows how much he doesn't trust people.
Zhang Qiyuan was also speechless. He didn't expect Xiong Wei to be able to do this.
"By the way, you should also pay attention. There is a reason why he hooked up with that China Resources real estate consultant. It is said that the real estate consultant now wants to pull some colleagues out to open an agency store." Huang Yi seemed to have thought of something and said to Zhang Qiyuan, "That person seems to want to open a Shell store in Xingcheng Jingyuan. Xiong Wei flattered that person because he wanted to be the store manager."
After these words were spoken, Zhang Qiyuan and Luo Gang looked at each other.
"Master Huang, didn't you say last time that he was going to be a sub-landlord?" Zhang Qiyuan said hurriedly.
Why is Xiong Wei so persistent? They all opened a shop in Xingcheng Jingyuan to avoid him, so why does Xiong Wei want to come to their side again?
"There was no one before, and he wanted to transfer his store to the property consultant of China Resources, but that property consultant looked down on his store. Now that others are bringing people in, he wants to become a store manager and get some shares at the same time." Huang Yi said.
Zhang Qiyuan and Luo Gang were silent for a while. In fact, they had already prepared themselves mentally for the opening of a Shell store in Xingcheng Jingyuan. After all, this project was the ceiling of the South District, and someone would definitely be eyeing this place.
But what they didn't expect was that this Shell store would be related to Xiong Wei.
"Forget it. Things will work out when the time comes. Master Huang, you probably haven't eaten yet. Let's go have a meal first, and then you can put your luggage in our dormitory. You will officially start work tomorrow. By then, you should do good work and pay Xiong Wei back. Then you will have nothing to do with him anymore." After Zhang Qiyuan treated Huang Yi and others to a meal, he asked the company's people to help him find a three-bedroom house in Xingcheng Jingyuan. Now that Huang Yi was going to work in their store, the dormitory was not big enough, so he needed to find a house for himself.
He has no requirements for the house except that it must be cheap.
"Brother Zhang, I have a three-bedroom apartment on the second floor of a second unit. The owner is willing to sell it or rent it out. If you cooperate with me in viewing the house, I can help you negotiate it down to 2400 per month." At this time, Li Xin spoke up.
"The second floor of Unit 2 in Building 1, isn't that above our store?" Zhang Qiyuan said with an idea.
"Yes." Li Xin nodded.
“Have the furniture and appliances been delivered?”
“They are all new and have not been demolished yet. The owner originally planned to rent them out, but later when he saw that the prices here dropped significantly, he decided to sell them,” said Li Xin.
"Let's go and look at the house."
Zhang Qiyuan and Li Xin went to see the house and found that it was indeed quite good. Although the furniture was the usual kind found in rental houses, it was all new. The refrigerator and washing machine were also new, and the air conditioner was given by the developer of Xingcheng Jingyuan.
2400 a month is quite cost-effective.
If there is someone working in the store behind, he can also live with him.
"Okay, let's do this. You invite the landlord over and then you can collect the agency fee from him." Zhang Qiyuan said to Li Xin.
"Thank you, Brother Zhang!" Li Xin said happily.
This month he won 15% of the commission from Wang Yong's order, which means he got nearly 1200 yuan. The commission for renting the house is 4200 yuan, which means he has nearly yuan, which is enough to pay off the port debt.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, after signing the contract with the landlord, Zhang Qiyuan drove Huang Yi, Wang Qun and Li Xin back to the dormitory. After putting Master Huang's luggage away, he asked Li Xin and others to help with the moving.
Just after moving, Zhang Qiyuan was called outside the store by Master Huang.
"Xiao Zhang, can you lend me a thousand yuan?" Huang Yi asked embarrassedly.
It is indeed not right to ask the boss for money before officially starting work, but there is no other way. He hasn't made any orders for a long time and has no money left.
Zhang Qiyuan was also a little surprised, but after seeing Master Huang's embarrassed expression, he also understood Master Huang. When he asked relatives and friends for money to pay off his mortgage, he had the same expression.
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Qiyuan said, "Master Huang, I can lend you this thousand yuan, but I hope you can do a good job in the future. We get 100% commission for rental orders. As long as you do two rental orders a month, you will have an easy life. If you can get sales orders, it will be even better. Let me be frank. I don't want you to be in the same state as before in the store in the future."
He and Luo Gang opened the company to make money, not to run a charity. If Huang Yi continued to be lazy like he was before with Xiong Wei, he might fire him. The treatment in their store was already very good. If he couldn't even make a rental order, then there was no need for him to stay in their store.
"Don't worry, after this incident I finally understand that you can't rely on anyone in this world. You can only rely on yourself. I will place orders properly in the future." Huang Yi promised.
"It's great that you understand this principle. Just work hard and I'll ask Luo Gang to open the port for you later."
Zhang Qiyuan nodded. He was afraid that Huang Yi would continue to be as bad as before, but after this incident, he believed that Huang Yi would change.
