Wang Erhai then discussed the benefits package for this decoration team with Huo Guoqiang.

"Since it's a team we're raising ourselves, there must be cohesion, and to have cohesion, the benefits package naturally has to be better than what's on the market!"

Huo Guoqiang said this.

His words struck right at Wang Erhai's heart.

Wang Erhai said:

"Social security and all that, we have to help them buy it too, we have to give them a guarantee."

Huo Guoqiang replied:

"Of course!"

Wang Erhai asked at this time:

"Then General Manager Huo, what do you think is a good monthly salary for our decoration personnel?"

Huo Guoqiang thought for a moment, then said:

"It's hard for me to say how much to pay; how much can a decoration worker on the market earn in a month right now?"

Wang Erhai said:

"Six or seven thousand is definitely there."

Huo Guoqiang said:

"Then let's pay the decoration members a monthly salary of eight thousand, group leaders ten thousand a month, plus social security, medical insurance and other benefits. Higher pay is no problem; the people in this team must be cultivated to be reliable, they must be our own people!"

Hearing this, Wang Erhai was immediately overjoyed:

"Deal, General Manager Huo, rest assured, I'll definitely find reliable people!"

After hanging up Huo Guoqiang's call, Wang Erhai immediately called Liang Xinghua to tell him this good news.

"Uncle Xinghua, we're offering you a monthly salary of eight thousand here, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Liang Xinghua immediately froze:

"What?"

He simply couldn't believe his ears.

He completely didn't expect that he, just a small mud worker, would actually one day be able to reach a monthly salary of eight thousand!

This is even higher than white-collar workers in big cities!

"Erhai, you're not fooling me, are you? You better not be joking with me, I'm afraid my heart can't take it!"

Liang Xinghua was so excited he could barely catch his breath.

"Uncle Xinghua, why would I fool you? Not only eight thousand a month, but we'll also buy you the five insurances and one fund!"

Liang Xinghua was so excited his throat trembled:

"Er... Erhai, thank you, thank you so much!"

Wang Erhai laughed:

"What's there to be polite about? We're from the same village, we should help each other out! Right, the company here needs to find a decoration group leader, do you have anyone suitable to recommend?"

Liang Xinghua said without a second thought:

"Brother Hongwei is very suitable! He has leadership presence; back when I and your dad and them followed Brother Hongwei to work, everyone was convinced by him!"

Wang Erhai nodded:

"Alright, then I'll go ask him later if he's willing to come work on my side!"

Liang Xinghua hung up the phone and immediately told his wife Lan Menglian this good news.

He felt he could finally hold his head high in front of Lan Menglian.

However, what he didn't expect was that after Lan Menglian heard this news, she didn't show a shred of happiness.

Instead, she pulled a long face and said:

"Wang Erhai wouldn't be stringing you along, would he! With your bit of ability, are you qualified to get an eight thousand monthly salary?"

Liang Xinghua was quite speechless at Lan Menglian's reaction:

"How can you look down on me like this? I'm your husband, at least!"

But Lan Menglian said:

"I'm not looking down on you, I'm just afraid you'll get cheated! That guy Wang Erhai, one look and he's a shrewd merchant; it's obvious he sees you're honest, that's why he's stringing you along!"

Liang Xinghua said coldly:

"Erhai would never string me along!"

Lan Menglian poured cold water on it:

"How is it impossible? Jobs in the county town generally pay three or four thousand! What virtue or ability do you have to make him suddenly offer you eight thousand? If that's not stringing you along, what is? Pies don't fall from the sky! You'd better take it easy! Otherwise you'll get strung along and still be grateful to them!"

Liang Xinghua couldn't say anything.

Thinking calmly, what Lan Menglian said wasn't entirely without reason.

He previously followed Zhou Hongwei doing masonry, but was only a small worker; the hardcore techniques of decoration like laying bricks, plastering, tiling, he had only just gotten started not long ago.

With his level of skill, working in the rural area, even as a big worker, at most it's a level of one hundred twenty yuan a day.

One hundred twenty a day, a month is three thousand six!

Wang Erhai actually directly offered him a monthly salary of eight thousand!

And it even includes the Five Insurances and One Fund!

This salary, it's really too high... high to the point of indeed being a bit unjustifiable!

"I've already agreed to Wang Erhai to go work for him, so what do you say we do now?"

Liang Xinghua said this one sentence dejectedly.

It was very obvious, he was having a bit of cold feet.

Although we're poor, although we have no culture, we're not greedy; we earn only as much money as our ability allows.

The character for 'greedy' and the character for 'poor' differ by only a single stroke.

Just afraid that in a single thought, one steps into a huge pit, and then it's irredeemable for ten thousand kalpas!

He still has a wife and children needing to be taken care of, he absolutely cannot get into trouble!

Liang Xinghua was just like a snail.

His cognition not only restricted his crawling speed, making his growth speed slow like a snail.

And he was extremely afraid of things, just like a snail's antennae, touching something ever so slightly, he would rapidly shrink back.

Not only did the antennae shrink back into the body, the body also shrank back into the snail shell along with them.

Lan Menglian then said:

"You go tell Wang Erhai, this job you can't do! You don't delay him, he also shouldn't come delay you!"

Liang Xinghua sighed:

"I'm a bit embarrassed to bring it up..."

Indeed, he had thin skin.

Something he'd already agreed to with Wang Erhai, he found it very hard to open his mouth and go back on it.

"You're embarrassed to bring it up, then let me bring it up!"

Lan Menglian said coldly:

"Such a small matter and you're embarrassed to bring it up, serves you right to be poor for a lifetime! You dial Wang Erhai's number right now, I'll talk to him!"

Liang Xinghua, however, hesitated:

"But, if I don't go work for Wang Erhai, where should I go work?"

Lan Menglian then said:

"Right now the County Town is building high-rises everywhere, you just randomly find a Construction Site to work at and it's done! If that really doesn't work, go be a Security Guard, it's still better than being hoodwinked by that profiteer Wang Erhai!"

Liang Xinghua sighed:

"Alright alright, you go talk to Wang Erhai!"

Immediately he took out his Mobile Phone, handed it to Lan Menglian.

He himself turned around, facing the Window smoking.

Outside the Window, was a dark damp Wall, not a bit of scenery to be had.

Just like his life where he could see the end at a glance.

Lan Menglian took Liang Xinghua's Mobile Phone, and immediately dialed Wang Erhai.

Wang Erhai at this time had just made a call to his dad, got Zhou Hongwei's contact number from his dad, and was just preparing to call Zhou Hongwei.

Unexpectedly, he had just input Zhou Hongwei's phone number, hadn't even dialed yet.

Liang Xinghua called again.

"Hello, Xiong Hua Shu, anything else?"

Wang Erhai answered and asked.

But the voice coming from the other end of the phone was Lan Menglian's:

"Wang Erhai, I'm Lan Menglian, my husband says, he's not going to work at your Company anymore."

Lan Menglian was direct, directly stating her attitude.

This made Wang Erhai involuntarily stunned, face full of surprise:

"What? What's going on, weren't we just chatting fine a moment ago? Aunt Meng Lian, my side offered a monthly salary of eight thousand, not low, why don't you help me persuade Xiong Hua Shu, an opportunity like this isn't common!"

Lan Menglian chuckled:

"You keep this opportunity for someone else, my Xinghua has limited ability, just afraid he won't earn the money and will get deceived instead!"

Wang Erhai hearing Lan Menglian say it like this, only then realized:

"Aunt Meng Lian, could it be that you persuaded Xiong Hua Shu not to come work at my place?"

Lan Menglian said impatiently:

"Anyway Xinghua isn't going to work at your place, I can't be bothered to waste words with you, that's it, hanging up!"

Finished speaking, not waiting for Wang Erhai to speak again, Lan Menglian hung up the phone.
