573: Lucky Employee

[Detected that Zhang Xiuying is a Lucky Employee. Once employed by the Host, she can provide a luck blessing to the relevant industries she is responsible for, benefiting the subsequent development of the associated enterprises. Activating "hidden mission - Lucky Employee" for the Host now!]

[Mission Name: Lucky Employee!]

[Mission Content: Hire an employee with the "Lucky Employee" title and arrange a reasonable position for them!]

[Mission Reward: For every employee hired with the "Lucky Employee" title, the Host will receive a 1 million cash reward!]

[Note: The luck blessing generated by the "Lucky Employee" title only takes effect while they are employed by the Host!]

"Xiuying is a 'Lucky Employee'? Hiring her will help the future development of the related businesses?"

"The hidden tasks related to Jiang Lingling and the others before only gave fifty thousand in rewards each. For someone with the 'Lucky Employee' title, completing the task once gives a million!"

Ye Su's eyes lit up at the suddenly activated hidden task.

Setting aside the million-dollar cash reward, Zhang Xiuying's "Lucky Employee" title alone was enough for Ye Su to hire her into the company.

"The [Note] specifies that the luck blessing from the 'Lucky Employee' title only works while employed by me. Hiring Xiuying isn't really poaching from Sister Ran's side."

"But, what kind of position should I arrange for Xiuying..."

In addition to the Beef Hot Pot Restaurant, Ye Family Catering was also preparing to develop a Barbecue Restaurant.

Now with over a hundred million on hand, Ye Su planned to accelerate development and open multiple stores simultaneously, which would require a lot of manpower.

"Perhaps I can have Feiyu responsible for the hot pot business and Xiuying responsible for the barbecue business?"

"This position doesn't have high requirements for academic qualifications; the most important thing is to be dedicated and control the ingredient quality and service attitude of every store."

"If Ye Family Catering wants to last, it must win through quality. Marketing strategies only serve for publicity. Xiuying can learn about that from the self-media company while we're choosing store locations, and then have the operations team coordinate."

After a brief thought, Ye Su decided to hire Zhang Xiuying and have her serve as a head of Ye Family Catering alongside Meng Feiyu.

Setting aside their relationship as 'half-family,' after these few days of interaction, Ye Su trusted Zhang Xiuying and believed she wouldn't engage in any dishonest or shady dealings.

Having made his decision, Ye Su immediately said to Zhang Xiuying:

"If you don't want to work at Joyful Gathering and think the work with your sister is boring, you can consider coming to my side."

Zhang Xiuying thought Ye Su's idea was the same as Yan Ran's—wanting her to have a 'ghost job' where she got paid for doing nothing.

Feeling she already owed Ye Su too much, Zhang Xiuying was grateful but intended to refuse his kindness; she couldn't take his money for nothing again.

Ye Su saw through Zhang Xiuying's thoughts and spoke before she could refuse:

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse. I'm not hiring you for no reason. Listen to me first."

Under Zhang Xiuying's puzzled gaze, Ye Su explained:

"I previously obtained a Secret Satay Sauce recipe and used it as a specialty to open a Beef Hot Pot Restaurant in Joyful Gathering. The current business and customer feedback are quite good.

When I went back to Yang County, I bought a Barbecue Sauce recipe that also tastes great. I'm thinking of replicating the Beef Hot Pot Restaurant model and opening a chain of Barbecue Restaurants featuring the secret Barbecue Sauce.

This time, I plan to invest a large amount of capital to open multiple Beef Hot Pot Restaurants and Barbecue Restaurants at once to make a name for Ye Family Catering, and then gradually expand to other cities and provinces.

I want you to help manage the business and store expansion for the barbecue side. After all, the position of person-in-charge is vital; I have to give it to someone I trust who is serious and responsible.

Thinking it over, among the people I know, only you meet the criteria. So I wanted to ask if you'd be willing to come and help me out?"

"Let me be the person-in-charge!"

Learning that Ye Su didn't want her to have a 'ghost job' but was giving her such an important task, Zhang Xiuying was both grateful for his trust and filled with trepidation. She said worriedly:

"You've already helped me so much during this time, even helping me reunite with my sister. If there's anywhere I can help, I'm certainly willing. It's just that I've never dealt with these things before. I'm worried that not only will I be unable to help you, but I'll also bring you trouble!"

"You don't need to worry about that." Ye Su smiled and told Zhang Xiuying to relax:

"The person-in-charge of the Beef Hot Pot Restaurant is named Meng Feiyu. He's also from our hometown. He used to be a truck driver, and now he's running the hot pot restaurant very successfully.

Later, you can get a simple understanding from him on how to normally operate a store, and then just copy and paste that to the Barbecue Restaurants you manage.

For the Beef Hot Pot and Barbecue Restaurants I want to run, the most important thing is the reputation among customers. You just need to ensure that the food quality and service attitude of every store satisfy the customers.

This isn't actually that difficult, but it's very energy-consuming. In other words, it'll likely be hard work in the beginning. Are you willing to accept this job?"

Hearing Ye Su say this, Yan Ran also felt that it would be more appropriate for Zhang Xiuying to work for him than at Joyful Gathering, so she encouraged her:

"It's a rare opportunity. If you think this job is good, go give it a try. If you find you don't like it after trying, you can come back to work at Joyful Gathering. Of course, I can still support you; it's not like you absolutely have to go out and work."

Zhang Xiuying was already moved by the job Ye Su offered, and with Yan Ran's persuasion, she no longer hesitated. She nodded with a determined look:

"Since you both put it that way, I'll do my best to try and strive to be of help to you."

"Great." Hearing Zhang Xiuying agree, Ye Su gave a relaxed smile:

"Since you've accepted the job and know what you'll be responsible for, next we should talk about your salary.

There's a lot to do in the early stages to prepare several Barbecue Restaurants at once. I'll start by giving you a basic salary of thirty thousand yuan a month, and after the Barbecue Restaurants open, I'll add some bonuses. Does that work for you?"

Since she was Yan Ran's sister and he was the prospective brother-in-law, Ye Su naturally couldn't be stingy. He would give as high a salary as possible.

Anyway, with his current income, paying Zhang Xiuying an extra ten or twenty thousand a month was inconsequential to him.

[Given that the Host is offering Zhang Xiuying a high salary because of the "exclusive love account" binding target "Yan Ran".]

[Therefore, the subsequent salary the Host pays to Zhang Xiuying can be paid through the "exclusive love account"!]

"Xiuying's salary can be paid using the 'exclusive love account'?"
