216: Chapter 216: The Compensation Secured for the Employees! (Housekeeping Company!)

Chapter 216: Securing Compensation for an Employee! Housekeeping Company!

The next morning, Su Yang received a report from Ji Guoxiong.

Ji Guoxiong gave a brief overview of yesterday's meeting with Wang Jiamin and the matter of the Wang family's compensation.

"Last night, Wang Jiamin apologized to Chen Yixuan and said she would help communicate regarding the compensation!"

"This morning, Wang Jialei's father came over and said he was willing to pay two hundred thousand in compensation. The lawyer said this amount is actually very sincere," Ji Guoxiong said in a low voice. "The Wang family probably thinks we're too difficult to deal with and is also afraid it might affect Wang Jialei's job!"

"What did Chen Yixuan say?"

Su Yang guessed that Wang Jialei's job must be quite good!

"He was very satisfied!"

"What about the scar?"

"I've asked the doctor. The medical expenses should be less than ten thousand. Although it might leave a scar, as long as it's treated properly, the mark won't be too obvious!"

"Let's leave it at that then!" Su Yang thought for a moment and asked, "Did Wang Jiamin ask about the video?"

"She did. I told her it was with the boss... so she didn't ask further!"

"Once we help Chen Yixuan get the compensation, tell Wang Jiamin not to worry—I've deleted the video!"

"Understood!"

In the afternoon, witnessed by the police, the Wang family and Chen Yixuan signed a mediation and compensation agreement at the hospital.

The compensation of two hundred thousand was transferred to Chen Yixuan's bank card on the spot.

Lying on his bed, Chen Yixuan looked at the text message on his phone, an uncontrollable smile spreading across his face!

He had only been working for less than a year, and now he had two hundred thousand in savings.

For a split second, he suddenly felt like having his right hand scalded too!

At the ward door, Wang Jiamin asked Ji Guoxiong somewhat awkwardly, "Mr. Ji, can that video be deleted?"

On the surface, that video didn't affect her much; after all, she was innocent and completely unaware of what her uncle's family had done!

But she was afraid it would be exploited by someone with ulterior motives.

For people like them, public reputation was extremely important!

Ji Guoxiong replied with a smile, "The boss said the video has already been deleted!"

"Oh!"

Seeing that Wang Jiamin still looked a bit uneasy, Ji Guoxiong smiled and said:

"Don't worry about this. If the boss says it's deleted, it's definitely deleted!"

"You seem to have a lot of trust in that Mr. Su, Mr. Ji!"

Wang Jiamin had never met Su Yang, but she had heard his name from her superiors!

Under Su Yang's Jufan Holdings, three companies—Jiuxiang Catering, Jiuxiang Food, and Fengyuan Ingredients—all fell within their jurisdiction.

Among them, Jiuxiang Catering was growing incredibly fast, and many said it had the potential to become a domestic catering giant!

Ji Guoxiong nodded. "The boss is very trustworthy!"

"Alright then!"

Hearing Ji Guoxiong say this, Wang Jiamin felt a bit more at ease!

At worst, she could look out for Mr. Su's companies a little in the future...

Meanwhile, in his office, Su Yang suddenly received a notification sound:

[Ding~ Your Jiuxiang Catering employee Chen Yixuan's loyalty has reached 90. You have received a 50,000 cash reward.]

Immediately after, Su Yang received a text from Ji Guoxiong.

It said the compensation had been received and that Wang Jiamin had been told the video was deleted.

Su Yang replied with a "Good" and then casually deleted the video he took yesterday.

After thinking for a moment, he sent another text to Ji Guoxiong.

He told him to give Chen Yixuan an internal company commendation and another fifty thousand in bonus money!

Back at the hospital, Ji Guoxiong looked at the still-grinning Chen Yixuan and said:

"Mr. Su said the company will give you another fifty thousand as a bonus to thank you for stepping up when the company needed you!"

"Huh?"

Chen Yixuan was stunned!

Standing nearby, Wang Jiamin heard that Mr. Su was rewarding this young man with another fifty thousand.

She couldn't help but feel a pang of envy.

In just half a day, this young man had two hundred and fifty thousand credited to his account!

At the same time, she began to believe that Mr. Su's character... definitely wasn't too bad!

She had dealt with many companies and seen far too many unscrupulous businesses and bosses.

Cases where an employee was injured and hospitalized, only for the company to ignore them or fire them directly, were not uncommon.

Companies like Jiuxiang Catering, which not only advanced medical fees and paid wages as usual but also gave bonuses and hired lawyers to fight for the employee's rights, were truly rare!

Chen Yixuan asked softly, "Mr. Ji, isn't this too much?"

He knew very well that if the company hadn't helped him, he wouldn't have gotten that two hundred thousand at all.

"If Mr. Su gave it to you, just take it. Mr. Su isn't short on money!" Ji Guoxiong smiled and patted Chen Yixuan's shoulder. "Just work hard in the future."

"Yes!"

Chen Yixuan nodded seriously.

With Chen Yixuan's matter settled, Su Yang thought back to the housekeeping company.

A housekeeping company was worth doing; anyway, the system had no requirements for company size.

Even if the company only had two or three people, it could still unlock the 'Morality' attribute.

He asked in the group chat for executives of his six companies if any of them frequently dealt with housekeeping companies, as he wanted to acquire one.

Yu Siying said she had a nanny at home, but didn't have much contact with the agencies themselves.

Liu Fengshan from Hongyu Law Firm mentioned that they had business dealings with several housekeeping companies.

This made Su Yang quite happy, and he immediately stated that if Liu Fengshan could find a satisfactory housekeeping company for acquisition, he would give him a monetary reward.

Once he said that, Liu Fengshan happily took on the task!

Liu Fengshan also asked in detail about Su Yang's requirements for the company.

Su Yang gave a rough price cap of no more than five million and said it would ideally have a relatively sound management system.

As for other things, Su Yang didn't have many requirements.

After the task was posted, he looked over the summary of the first stage of internal rectification results for Jiuxiang Catering.

Recently, the Jiuxiang hot pot chain had been undergoing internal rectification, which included dealing with some branch employees and store managers.

Some received verbal warnings, while a very small number were fired directly.

Some of those who received verbal warnings chose to resign on the spot.

They left that very day without even writing a resignation letter—very decisive!

Presumably, they couldn't take the slight!

To this, Su Yang could only wish them a bright future!

Back when the company was small, he might have paid attention to employees leaving!

But now, Su Yang took employee turnover much more lightly.

As long as their loyalty was below 80, he felt almost no psychological ripple!

Finally, Su Yang noticed a resignation approval form.

However, this person was an employee in the finance department of Jiuxiang Catering.

The direct supervisor, Finance Manager Chen Li, and Ji Guoxiong had already signed it.

Tian Yijun, whose loyalty to the company had also reached 81.

"Xiao Jiang, go to the Jiuxiang Catering finance department and see if Tian Yijun is there. If she is, have her come see me!"

"Yes, Boss!"

Su Yang glanced at the resignation letter; the general idea was that Tian Yijun's husband was going to work in Shanghai.

They planned to develop their careers in Shanghai in the future, and she wanted to go with him.

This was a perfectly legitimate reason for resigning!

Before long, Su Yang met Tian Yijun.

Tian Yijun was quite pretty and twenty-seven years old.

She had a daughter and seemed to have a happy family!

Su Yang had a brief chat with her. Tian Yijun could stay in Rongcheng for another month and would complete the work handover according to company requirements before leaving.

Su Yang also asked for her evaluations, suggestions, or opinions regarding the Jiuxiang Catering finance department.

After she left, Su Yang signed the final column of the resignation approval.

In the following days, Liu Fengshan found two housekeeping companies for Su Yang.

But neither of them satisfied him!

Overall, the service quality of these two companies was mediocre, and they were both founded by ordinary private owners.

There were very few full-time employees; most were part-timers.

Part-time nannies, part-time cleaners, part-time repairmen... this was the norm for many housekeeping companies!

Sometimes, they acted more like agencies, introducing business and taking a commission.

Furthermore, both companies were asking for high prices, seemingly treating Su Yang like a rich fool to be fleeced!

Su Yang had no doubt that after these two owners sold their companies to him at a high price, they could turn around and open new ones immediately.

Su Yang was indeed rich, but he couldn't just throw money away!

When he gave bonuses to employees, most would be grateful and their loyalty would increase.

Occasionally, they would even drop gold coins or special rewards for him!

Perhaps some overly enthusiastic employees would even secretly call him 'Daddy' in their hearts...

The system would also reimburse these expenses!

But being fleeced by these private owners? After they got the money, they would likely mock him for being a sucker!

So, feeling a bit annoyed, Su Yang contacted several headhunting firms he frequently collaborated with.

He asked them to find talents with experience as executives in housekeeping companies.

By now, Su Yang was considered a VIP client by several headhunting firms.

Upon receiving Su Yang's request, they all began actively searching for talent for him.

At this moment, Su Yang suddenly felt that he might as well make a big splash in the housekeeping service industry!

He would need it in the future anyway.

When he moved into a large villa later on, he would definitely need to hire housekeeping staff!

Moreover, housekeeping companies fit his preference for the service industry!

Around mid-July, Su Yang established Meijia Housekeeping Service Co., Ltd.

Like Jiuxiang Catering and Spark Fitness, Meijia Housekeeping was a subsidiary under Jufan Holdings.

The office was also located in Hyatt Plaza.

By then, he had interviewed over a dozen candidates recommended by the headhunters.

He finally decided to appoint Tu Zhiqiang as the General Manager of Meijia Housekeeping with an annual salary of four hundred thousand.

Following his usual habit, he also gave Tu Zhiqiang a 5% stake in phantom shares for dividends.

Fan Jianlong, Song Shifang, and Geng Huayan were appointed as Vice Presidents with annual salaries of three hundred and fifty thousand, each receiving a 3% stake in phantom shares.

Generally speaking, the housekeeping service industry in China had only been developing for a short while.

Salaries certainly couldn't compare to those in hot industries!

After the contracts were signed, the four of them were the only ones in the vast Meijia Housekeeping office.

Including Su Yang, there were only five people in total.

But Tu Zhiqiang, Fan Jianlong, Song Shifang, and Geng Huayan didn't feel any sense of disappointment.

They all knew the boss was very capable, which was one of the reasons they were attracted to the job.

And since the boss spent so much on their salaries, he certainly wouldn't let them sit idle!

As they sat in the small office, Su Yang chatted casually with them and mentioned his requirements!

"First, our housekeeping company should try to use full-time employees as much as possible, whether they are nannies, cleaners, or maternity matrons!"

Su Yang didn't want to see a situation where the company grew to a hundred people, only for eighty of them to be non-regular staff; that didn't align with his interests!

The system didn't recognize temporary workers as his formal employees, so their wages wouldn't be reimbursed.

Labor dispatch?

Don't even mention that!

Labor dispatch employees belonged to someone else's company!

If he hired labor dispatch workers, the system would treat it as a corporate consumption expense.

"Second, when hiring nannies, maternity matrons, and other staff, I must personally review them!"

Su Yang still had to pay attention to their baseline moral values.

If they were going to do housekeeping, they had to do it right; Su Yang didn't want any mishaps!

"Finally, employee training must be handled well... that's about it!"

This was the foundation of a housekeeping company. If professional skills weren't up to par, what was the point?

"Boss, if we use all full-time staff, the company's overhead costs will be quite high. We'll have to pay them even if there's no business," Tu Zhiqiang reminded him. "Temporary workers are more convenient; you call them when there's work and don't have to pay them when there isn't."

"Don't worry about that, money is not an issue!" Su Yang said with a smile. "If Meijia can do well, I don't mind investing another few tens of millions into it."
