Chapter 5: Not Listening to Reason at All

With the help of the Guanjia, the vacant positions for Zhu Jun and Zheng Lin were filled immediately.

Through this company meeting, Wang Xuan discovered that the Guanjia was indeed a capable person; if he were to let the Guanjia manage the Gangzhou Branch, it would almost be a waste of his talents.

By five o'clock in the afternoon, the meeting concluded, and Wang Xuan basically acted as a hands-off boss, leaving the daily operations of the company to the new manager, Yu Jun, and the Guanjia to handle.

……

Just as Wang Xuan stepped out of the conference room, his phone rang; it was a call from Supervisor Zhang.

"Wang Xuan, do you still want to continue doing this job or not?"

"Skipping work this morning was one thing, but it's already five o'clock in the fucking afternoon, and you're still not here?"

"Your base salary for this month is gone!"

"I order you to get to the delivery center within half an hour. If you don't make it, wait to be fired, and you won't get your salary for this month or last month either!"

This Supervisor Zhang, whose name was Zhang Longtian, had worked at this delivery center in Gangzhou City for many years.

"Supervisor Zhang, I asked you for leave yesterday, and you didn't approve it, which is fine."

"But even if I skipped work for one day today, you can just deduct three hundred yuan from me."

"Deducting my entire month's base salary directly, that isn't reasonable, is it?" Wang Xuan said patiently.

A courier's salary consists of a base salary plus commission, and the base salary accounts for about half.

Wang Xuan's base salary was one thousand eight hundred yuan per month.

Moreover, when he joined the company, there was a rule that skipping work for one day resulted in a deduction of three hundred yuan.

If the base salary were deducted directly now, he would basically have worked for nothing this month.

"Not reasonable? Kid, I say it's reasonable, so it's reasonable."

Hearing Zhang Longtian's words, Wang Xuan frowned deeply.

Wang Xuan truly hadn't expected that this Zhang Longtian wouldn't even care about the law.

No matter what, he had worked as a courier under him for two years.

Yet now, for skipping one day of work, he was deducting an entire month's base salary.

He didn't even ask where he was, instead demanding he arrive at the company within half an hour.

If he couldn't make it, he would lose two months' salary.

Furthermore, according to what Wang Xuan understood, these two months of deducted salary were all being pocketed by Zhang Longtian himself.

This Zhang Longtian was not only heartless but also extremely greedy.

Wang Xuan knew very well why he dared to do this.

In any case, the courier job was very easy to hire for; if you didn't do it, there were naturally others willing to.

"Supervisor Zhang, are you saying you won't listen to reason at all?" Wang Xuan's tone was icy.

Originally, Wang Xuan had planned to head to the delivery center after finishing his work today to properly submit his resignation to Zhang Longtian, hand over his duties, settle his wages, and perhaps have a meal together.

And yet, this was the result?

It really was him overthinking things; the human sentiment he held in his heart was worth nothing in the eyes of others.

Zhang Longtian was stunned; this kid actually dared to talk back to him, whereas before he had always been submissive. "Reason? Wang Xuan, you're just a poor laborer; here, whatever I say goes."

After a pause, Zhang Longtian continued:

"I see you have no intention of coming today, so don't bother coming in the future either!"

"From now on, you are fired!"

"You don't need to come to the company either! The new guy, Xiao Zhang, happens to need an electric bike, so I'm giving yours to him to ride!"

Just as Zhang Longtian was about to hang up, Wang Xuan's cold voice came from the other end of the line.

"Zhang Longtian, you're very arrogant, aren't you?"

Hearing this, Zhang Longtian laughed.

"Yo, you poor loser, you've got some nerve, huh? You actually dare to call me by my full name? Did Fish Leong give you that courage?"

"Kid, I'm putting it out there today: since you're so bold, you're fucking fired for sure today!"

Wang Xuan no longer wanted to say anything more to him.

This Zhang Longtian really was begging to be taught a lesson!

"Zhang Longtian, you wait for me obediently; I'll be there in an hour!" After saying this, Wang Xuan hung up the phone directly.

He stood up and said to the Guanjia:

"Lao Gao, take me to the Li Tuan Delivery Center!"

"Very well, Chairman Wang."

……

Li Tuan Delivery Center.

Zhang Longtian hung up the phone, and two delivery drivers waiting for orders nearby happened to hear his previous conversation.

"Supervisor, was that call just now to that kid Wang Xuan?" one of them asked.

Zhang Longtian was in a very foul mood; he had been about to curse someone out, but Wang Xuan had hung up on him.

"Yeah, that idiot must have lost his mind today, daring to call me by my full name, damn it!" Supervisor Zhang was so angry he kicked the trash can next to him over.

"Supervisor, calm down." Another delivery driver nearby hurriedly brought over a cup of tea and handed it to Zhang Longtian.

"Exactly, Supervisor Zhang, you don't need to be angry for his sake! He's just a poor loser with no connections in Gangzhou; just firing him is enough!"

Zhang Longtian took a sip of tea and said indifferently:

"He said he's coming in a while, so you guys just watch how I deal with him!"

The two delivery drivers nearby grinned, both waiting to watch the show.

"Haha, we'll be waiting!"

"There's a good show to watch."
