Chapter 1408: Salary

Editor: Henyee Translations

The five of them looked at each other. Mei Hong took a deep breath and took a step forward. "I want to know... how much is our salary?"

Gu Yundong glanced at her and Mei Hong became a little nervous.

However, she had no choice. She still had her younger siblings to support at home. She cared a lot about money.

Gu Yundong smiled and said, "For the salary, it will be set at five taels a month. If your job is done well, it will increase in the future. In addition, there will be gifts distributed during the festivals. Every season, the shop will prepare two sets of clothes for you to change into."

Just as Gu Yundong finished speaking, joy flashed across the faces of the five people in front of her.

A monthly salary of five taels of silver? That was much more than some shop assistants.

Moreover, the boss said that if they did well in the future, the salary would increase. There were even gifts and clothes.

This treatment was not inferior to that of those large restaurants.

In fact, they had long wanted to ask about the salary, but they did not dare to. It was not easy for women to find work. It was not easy for them to find a stable job. No one wanted to give up. It was better to have less money than to have work today but not tomorrow.

However, now that they heard that the salary was more than they had imagined, how could they not be surprised?

"But..." However, Gu Yundong still had a but.

"As you can see, the shop is still under repair. It will probably take another month or so for it to open for business, so you won’t be able to start work in the short term. However, it’s not like you don’t have anything to do. In this month, you have to train first to understand how to receive customers, understand what kind of business our shop is doing, and grasp the most basic service skills."

"Don’t worry, I’ll still pay you."

The five of them were a little surprised. She actually gave them a salary for training them?

They had never heard of anyone being paid as an apprentice.

However, it had to be said that this was what they needed. Without any income for a month, it was difficult for them to maintain their lives.

Hence, the five of them nodded. "Yes, Boss. We understand."

"Alright, I have five contracts here. Mei Hong knows how to read. You can read it to everyone. If you have no objections, sign it and put your thumb print on it first."

Gu Yundong’s recruitment conditions and some things to take note of were really different from ordinary employers. At this moment, she had even written the contract.

Mei Hong went forward and read the contract.

In fact, the contract was very simple. Gu Yundong asked everyone to keep the matter in the shop a secret. Whoever leaked it would have to pay compensation. There were also some other rules and regulations.

However, what surprised Mei Hong and the others was that this contract not only restricted them, but also the owner.

Gu Yundong could not fire them for no reason. If there was no valid reason, she would have to compensate them for two months of work.

They had never seen a boss write a contract to restrain herself.

For some reason, they felt relieved. They felt that working in such a shop would be very warm and reassuring.

Everyone stepped forward. Those who were literate signed on it, and those who were illiterate pressed their fingerprints on it.

Zhang Yingyue hesitated for a moment when she was pressing her thumb print. She looked at the terms with a complicated expression. It was unknown what she was thinking. After a long time, she pressed her fingers down heavily.

After the matter was settled, Gu Yundong put away the contract and said, "From tomorrow onwards, go to the Shao residence at 25 Hetai Alley. I will arrange for you to study."

"Yes, Boss."

Gu Yundong nodded and left with Nanny Xia and Tong Shuitao.
