Chapter 1218 - 1218 1218 Manager

1218: Chapter 1218: Manager 1218: Chapter 1218: Manager Upon seeing the situation, Yang Ruxin suddenly burst into laughter.

Yang Mancang, however, had a look of helplessness on his face, “Quickly put down the kitchen knife, put down the fire poker.”

Lin Xiaoling glanced at the kitchen knife in her hand and couldn’t help feeling a bit awkward, “I thought you were bullying Xinxin.”

“Where would I dare to bully this little girl?

I can’t pamper her enough…” Yang Mancang cracked a smile, “I just felt something was amiss, and next thing I know, she’s calling you over…”

“What’s going on?” Lin Xiaoling handed the kitchen knife to her daughter-in-law and untied her apron.

“I’ll continue cooking then…” Geng Jinhua knew they were about to discuss important matters and it wasn’t good for her to stay there.

“Sister-in-law, go call Brother Zhenshan over.

This matter requires consent from you and your husband…” Yang Ruxin hurriedly interjected, “Cooking can wait, if this talk goes well, I’ll treat little brother Goudan to roast chicken…”

Geng Jinhua, a woman of simple nature, had gotten along well with her in-laws and younger brother-in-law after marrying into the Yang Family for four years.

She wasn’t one to quibble and would consult with her in-laws on everything.

Hearing what Yang Ruxin said, she first looked toward her father-in-law and mother-in-law.

“Go ahead.” Lin Xiaoling quickly gestured with her hand.

However, before Geng Jinhua could leave the courtyard, the gate creaked open; Yang Zhenshan and his brother Yang Zhenjiang had returned, with Zhenjiang carrying his little nephew Goudan around his neck.

Yang Zhenjiang worked at the furniture workshop, and Yang Zhenshan would also go help out when he was free.

Today was unexpected for Zhenjiang to return together.

“Brother Zhenshan, come inside quickly.

Sister Xinxin was just about to send for you…” Geng Jinhua hurriedly took her son over and glanced at her younger brother-in-law, “Hurry and wash up, there’s hot water in the kitchen.”

“Thank you, sister-in-law.” Yang Zhenjiang headed into the kitchen.

Yang Zhenshan promptly entered the room, “Sister Xinxin, you were looking for me?”

Yang Ruxin nodded, “I want you to be my Manager.

Second Master said you can’t handle it, Brother Zhenshan, but do you think you can?”

“What?” Lin Xiaoling was the first to exclaim in surprise, “Manager?”

“Yes, my Manager gets five taels of silver per month…”

“What?” Lin Xiaoling’s voice grew louder, and she even stood up abruptly, “Five taels?”

Yang Ruxin was startled and quickly nodded, “Second Aunt, don’t get agitated.

There’ll be holiday bonuses, and if you do well each month, there’s also a red envelope…”

“No, Xinxin, I’m not saying it’s too little, it just seems like too much…” Lin Xiaoling exchanged glances with Yang Mancang.

Five taels a month meant sixty taels a year; that meant the family would never again lack food or clothing, “Your Brother Zhenshan is an honest and straightforward man, what can he do?”

“That’s exactly what I admire about him, his honesty and straightforwardness.”

“Xinxin…” Yang Zhenshan was also stunned.

He had thought about joining a transport team to make a few trips and earn enough to build a house.

Right now he was idle, but his brother would soon need to marry, and living space would get cramped.

He had never imagined that one day he could earn five taels a month, “I…”

“Brother Zhenshan, in the future, I plan to open quite a few shops and workshops, and I need a reliable and trustworthy Manager to regularly communicate with the shopkeepers, for instance, what merchandise sells well, how much stock needs replenishing, and so on…” Yang Ruxin looked at Yang Zhenshan, “In short, I won’t have the energy and time to personally handle everything, so you will need to represent me…”
