Chapter 15: Like a Family

After listening to what Zhou Xiaofang said, Yang Hai agreed with it in his heart.

How he used to be, and how he is now, isn’t it also the case that a son wants to take care of his parents but they are no longer around?
Many people always want to stand out and make a lot of money, and then they will respect their parents.

But when they are successful in their careers and have made enough money, they will find that their parents are no longer around.

No matter how rich they are or how much they want to honor their parents, they will no longer have the chance. When that time comes, they will regret not spending more time with their parents and honoring them while their parents were still alive.

Moreover, human nature is often selfish, and family situations like Zhou Xiaofang's are actually quite common.

As the eldest among children, few people would not continue their studies unless they are not good at studying.

They often only care about finishing college and then taking the postgraduate entrance examination, then taking the master's entrance examination, and then wanting to study abroad after completing the master's examination.

I can earn tuition and living expenses through my own work-study program and with scholarships, and I don't have to ask my parents for money.

How could I have imagined that I would not take the postgraduate entrance examination, the master's examination, or study abroad, but would start working and earning money early to support my younger siblings' education and reduce the burden on my parents?

In short, there are very few people who can think like Zhou Xiaofang, who care about their younger brothers and sisters, and their parents.

Although Yang Hai was inclined to hire Zhou Xiaofang immediately, he still asked her to go back and wait for notification.

Since it is an open recruitment, we must try our best to be fair. If the first applicant is directly admitted, it means that other people will not be given a chance. Obviously, this is also unfair to other people.

At this time, the second and third applicants had also arrived.

Yang Hai notified more than a dozen people to apply for the job today, but only three of them were applying for the front desk position. The others were applying for the trader position and the securities investment department manager position, and the other one was applying for the finance position.

As for the clerks, they will be under the charge of the finance and front desk for the time being. The company has just been established and has not yet developed. It is impossible to staff all departments and positions at once.

As for the legal department, you can just borrow the legal staff of Lean Company for help. Anyway, there is not much work to do for the time being.

We'll talk about everything after the new year, which is next year.

After interviewing everyone, Yang Hai still asked them to go back and wait for notification.

When he returned home in the evening, He Wenjing had prepared dinner and was waiting for Yang Hai. When he heard the noise, he asked his daughter Lulu to come and find him.

Yang Hai did not refuse. It was not his first time anyway.

However, after dinner and playing with Lulu for a while, Yang Hai returned to his home, saying that he had work matters to deal with.

They were drunk yesterday, but they didn't drink tonight and are sober. However, they are still a little embarrassed to get together.

He Wenjing still wanted to keep him, but Yang Hai said that he had work matters to deal with, so she felt embarrassed to keep him.

Yang Hai did have work matters to deal with. He had to call each of the successful applicants to inform them to report to the company for work tomorrow.

Moreover, he will have to sign a formal employment contract with them tomorrow, and he will also have to formally inform them of the salary and benefits they will receive.

However, a probation period is definitely inevitable. After all, everyone is unfamiliar with each other. Without a trial, how can they know your abilities?
Once you become a regular employee, it is not easy to resign as it involves the issue of compensation for breach of contract.

Although this amount of money is a small matter for Yang Hai, this is a company's employment system, and it is not something that can be messed up. Now the company has only a few people, so of course it doesn't matter. When the company grows and becomes stronger, if it is still like this, it will be a big problem.

Therefore, at the very beginning, we must establish the rules first. Any position we recruit in the future must be tried out first, and the candidate can only be hired as a permanent employee after the probation period.

The first person Yang Hai notified was Zhou Xiaofang.

Before officially notifying her, he still asked Zhou Xiaofang a question.

"Ms. Zhou! The company has just been established, and the staff of each department will definitely not be fully staffed immediately in the early stage."

"So, although you are applying for a receptionist position, you may also be assigned to do some clerical work, or even miscellaneous work, such as administrative work. Can you accept this?"

"Of course, if you perform well, promotion and salary increase will not be a problem."

"I have no problem with it. I can accept it." Zhou Xiaofang agreed without hesitation.

"Besides, I applied for the job because your company is a startup and I can learn a lot and gain experience."

"I can't work for others all my life. When I have enough experience and funds, I will definitely start my own business."

"My current work experience will become a valuable asset for my future entrepreneurship." Yang Hai said with a smile.

"That's great! I admire ambitious people like you. If that's ok, please bring your ID to the company tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock to go through the entry procedures."

After ending the call with Zhou Xiaofang, Yang Haiyou called other people one by one and asked them to come to the company at 9 am tomorrow to go through the entry procedures.

Afterwards, Yang Hai turned on his computer again, thought about it, and posted another job advertisement, recruiting an administrative manager for the company. The administrative manager will have to be in charge of the human resources department for the time being, so he can't recruit another human resources manager!
Although we will have to recruit sooner or later, it is too early now. There will only be a dozen people in total at most. Why do we need a human resources manager?

Even the executive manager is actually a bit redundant, as it seems that things won’t work without someone in charge.

With only a dozen people like this, there is already a securities investment manager, an administrative manager, and a front desk clerk, which is enough to cope with the situation for the time being.

After finishing, Yang Hai opened the page of the international crude oil futures trading software again. After logging into his account, he took a look and found that the current international crude oil futures price has fallen to US$96.55 a barrel. Compared with yesterday, it has fallen by more than US$2 a barrel, and his capital account has more than 2000 million US dollars.

It’s that simple to use money to make money. This is probably why rich people become richer and richer.

This is also the charm of financial investment, or financial game. In essence, this is actually a kind of gamble.

However, this kind of gambling is a little different from the gambling on the gambling table.

The price of international crude oil futures will continue to fall, so Yang Hai did not make any more operations. He just waited quietly for it to continue falling and continue to make money.

As for the small fluctuations during this period, he can't care so much. No matter how good his memory is, he can't grasp these daily small fluctuations. As long as the general trend is not a problem, it's fine.

The next morning, Lulu came knocking on the door again early and called Yang Hai to have breakfast. The two families really lived like one family.

When Yang Hai drove to the company, Zhou Xiaofang was already waiting for him there.

　There have been major revisions in the previous part. If you don’t understand it, you can go back and take a look.
