She looked like a quiet and gentle girl.
In early spring, the temperature outside was still very low, but it was warm inside the KFC.
Jiang Jiaqiās coat was placed on the chair next to her.
She was only wearing a black cotton short-sleeved shirt, which made her fair skin stand out even more.
"Uncle Tao~ over here."
It was as if she felt something.
When Jiang Jiaqi looked up and saw Jiang Tao entering, she stood up and waved at him with a smile.
"You young people are really bold, itās just past New Year and youāre already wearing short sleeves."
Jiang Tao took a few steps to sit across from Jiang Jiaqi and joked with a smile.
"Hehe, with a down jacket on outside, itās not cold; this way I look slimmer~"
Jiang Jiaqi playfully smiled, glanced at Jiang Tao a few times, then said in surprise:
"Uncle Tao, how come I feel like you..."
"How should I put this feeling..."
"I feel like your aura is completely different from before."
"Youāre still you, but it feels like youāve become a different person!"
After examining Jiang Tao for a while, Jiang Jiaqi shared her feelings.
"Hahaha..."
"Whatās different? Your uncle is still your uncle. Order whatever you want, itās on me today."
Jiang Tao said this as he took out his phone, opened the KFC mini program on WeChat, and handed the phone to Jiang Jiaqi.
Jiang Jiaqi giggled and said, "Uncle Tao, how could I impose on you like this!"
"Thereās no need to be formal with your uncle. Will you order or not? You wonāt get this chance again."
Jiang Tao laughed and pretended to take back the phone.
"Hehe, then I wonāt be polite to you, Uncle Tao~"
Jiang Jiaqi chuckled, reaching out to take the phone from Jiang Taoās hand.
With her slender, delicate fingers, she scrolled and finally ordered a 39-yuan set meal for two.
"Iāve ordered, Uncle Tao."
After ordering the meal for two, Jiang Jiaqi handed the phone back to Jiang Tao.
Jiang Tao took the phone and saw that she only spent 39 yuan, which amused him.
"Jiaqi, is this how youāre not being polite to your uncle?"
"This little bit isnāt even enough for two kids, let alone us two adults."
As he spoke, Jiang Tao ordered a crispy whole chicken, chicken nuggets, skewers, egg tarts, chicken wings, and other snacks.
The order price quickly shot up to around 300 yuan.
With his current financial strength, he had achieved "KFC freedom."
He could order as much as he wanted without worrying about the cost.
"Thatās enough, Uncle Tao, thereās no way we can eat all this!"
Seeing Jiang Tao continuously adding to the order, Jiang Jiaqi quickly tried to stop him.
"If we canāt finish it, we can pack it up for dinner. Itās rare to treat you to KFC, I have to make sure youāre full."
Jiang Tao felt it was about enough, so he placed the order and paid for it.
After paying, while waiting for the food, Jiang Tao asked Jiang Jiaqi with a smile:
"Howās the job search going?"
"Itās so competitive, Uncle Tao. This year Beijing is even more competitive than last year!"
"The highest salary for a few companies I interviewed with in the past few days is only 3500 yuan during the internship period!"
"This is Beijing, for heavenās sake!"
"After rent, food, drinks, phone bills, and transportation expenses, thereās hardly any money left, while doing the dirtiest and hardest work during the internship."
Talking about her job search experience, Jiang Jiaqi couldnāt help but pour out her grievances to Jiang Tao.
"Haha, do you want to work with your uncle?"
"Iām planning to start a food company."
"For now, the only employees are my dad and my mom, and if you join, it will be you too."
"I feel the market prospects for the company are pretty good."
"If the business develops smoothly, we will hire more workers and salespeople."
Jiang Tao crossed his hands on the table and offered an olive branch to Jiang Jiaqi once again.
"A food company? What kind of food are you planning to make, Uncle Tao?"
Jiang Jiaqi looked at Jiang Tao with curiosity.
Jiang Tao answered truthfully, "A secret recipe marinated product, Eight Treasure Pickles, currently itās our only product."
"Eight Treasure Pickles?"
It was the first time Jiang Jiaqi had heard of anyone starting a company just to sell this.
Jiang Tao nodded, "Yes, for now, we will focus on this one product."
"As for the salary..."
Jiang Tao hesitated for a moment, but before Jiang Jiaqi could ask, he proactively brought up the topic of salary.
"As for the salary, since weāre all family, I wonāt talk about internships or anything like that."
"Initially, Iāll give you a salary of 6000 yuan a month, plus a performance bonus and commission based on the companyās turnover."
"Weāll provide you with lunch, and Iāll also give you a 500-yuan housing allowance."
"6000? Lunch included, plus a housing allowance!"
Hearing the salary offered by Jiang Tao, Jiang Jiaqi was quite surprised and full of joy.
For someone like her with a highest degree of an associateās and no special skills or work experience,
a monthly salary of 6000 yuan was definitely considered high!
Moreover, 6000 was just the base salary, and there were also performance bonuses and commissions!
Plus the 500-yuan housing allowance!
Also, joining a company that hasnāt even opened yet makes her definitely a founding member!
In the future, when the company develops, her experience will grow too, and a raise would be inevitable!
Seeing the surprised expression on Jiang Jiaqiās face, Jiang Tao knowingly asked:
"Is the package Iām offering high or low?"
"High, definitely high!"
"Uncle Tao, to be honest, in just a few days in Beijing, Iāve interviewed more than a dozen companies, and your offer is definitely the highest!"
"And the most important thing is! Working with you, I feel at ease!"
Jiang Jiaqi, hearing the salary package offered by Jiang Tao, was very tempted.
With such a good opportunity, she naturally didnāt want to miss out, so she responded enthusiastically.
