Chapter 1766: Report....
Translator: Lonelytree
Hearing everyone’s urging voices, Lin Jinlan smiled and said,” Perhaps you guys don’t know, but it’s very easy to do woman and child’s business.”
‘ Sister Jinlan, tell us quickly,” Lin Xinyue urged with a smile.” We want to hear it!”
Lin Jinlan coughed a few times before reporting seriously,” Just as Big Brother said, in the past year, as the living standards of the people have improved, many people are willing to pay attention to their clothes, especially women and children.
“Last year, the total sales of Lin Yue Pavilion was more than one million taels, and the net profit was 700,000 taels. In the first half of this year, it had more than doubled compared to last year, reaching more than three million taels, and the net profit was more than two million taels.
“Mengyue Pavilion’s total sales last year was eight hundred thousand taels, and its net profit was five hundred thousand taels. However, in the first half of this year, the total sales reached more than two million taels, and the net profit was 1.8 million taels.”
Hearing Lin Jinlan’s report, everyone was indeed secretly surprised and
happy. The total sales had increased by almost six times.
The other industries had only increased by two or three times.
” Haha, congratulations, Sister Jinlan. You’ve achieved such good results!” Everyone was very happy for Lin Jinlan.
Lin Jinlan smiled and said,” You’re congratulating the wrong person. You should be congratulating Master, shouldn’t you?”
Everyone reacted. This was indeed the case.
“Congratulations, Master!” Everyone congratulated Lin Yuelan in unison.
Lin Yuelan smiled and said,” This is the result of everyone’s hard work. In that case, I’ll double your year-end bonus this year!’
As soon as Lin Yuelan finished speaking, Lin Xinyue was not very satisfied.
She said,” Master, it’s only doubled. That’s too little. You have to at least triple it!”
Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” Alright, except for Lin Xinyue, the year-end bonus will be tripled!’
Hearing this, the others were pleasantly surprised. Only Lin Xinyue wailed,” Ah, Master, you can’t be so cruel to me! 1 want three times as well, three times the bonus.’
Lin Yuelan smiled but didn’t answer. She spread her hands and said to Lin Xinyue,” Alright then. When you get married, I, the master, won’t be giving you any gifts. I was planning to give you a big gift!’
“Ah?” Upon hearing that Lin Xinyue was getting married, everyone’s faces were filled with shock and curiosity.” Is Xinyue getting married? When?”
Lin Xinyue’s face instantly turned red. Even her neck and ears turned red. She stomped her feet and said shyly to Lin Yuelan,” Master, when did I get married? I don’t even have a partner. Are you mocking me?”
Lin Yuelan smiled and said,” I don’t know if there is anything. However, I heard that you fought for a young man to guard the zoo. You have to know that I don’t need outsiders to guard the zoo. There are plenty of people in Lin Garden.’
Lin Xinyue’s face turned even redder as she defended herself,” 1…1… I only wanted to help him because I felt sorry for him. It’s not like what you said, and 1 didn’t like him.”
As soon as Lin Xinyue finished speaking, the others suddenly realized what was going on.” Oh,” they replied in a strange tone.
Lin Yuelan pretended to be puzzled as she looked at the others and asked,” Just now, did I say that Xinyue likes the man?”
Everyone said in unison,” No!”
Lin Yuelan then said,” Silly girl, listen to yourself. You’re confessing without realising it.”
Lin Xinyue was so embarrassed that she couldn’t say anything. She could only say with a red face,” Master, I’ve said it before. I only pitied him and helped him. We don’t even have a similar background.”
Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” Oh, I see. However, Xinyue, there are so many pitiful people in this world, and there are even more pitiful people than him. Why do you only pity him? I don’t believe that you have no vested interest.”
Everyone instantly started to jeer again, laughing as they said,” That’s right, why do you pity him and help him? Xinyue, come, tell us!”
Then, Lin Xinyue suddenly said very seriously,” He… He was the second person to see my eyes and said that they were like the beautiful colour of the sky!” The first was Lin Yuelan.
Hearing Lin Xinyue’s answer, everyone fell silent.
They had worked with Lin Xinyue for a long time, and from the time she started working for the Master, the Master had given her a pair of eyeglasses that could change the colour of her eyes, so they didn’t know that her eyes were blue.
Later on, they heard that her eyes were blue, However, because they had known each other for too long, they were surprised at first. Later, when they saw her eyes, they were still shocked, but they quickly accepted it.
However, if they didn’t know Lin Xinyue and saw her blue eyes, they would probably be surprised.
Therefore, when they heard Lin Xinyue say that a stranger said her eyes were beautiful when he saw them, it was no wonder that Lin Xinyue would be interested.
Although Lin Yuelan didn’t know when Lin Xinyue took off her fake pupils and let others see her true colour, the fact that that person could tell Lin Xinyue that her eyes were beautiful meant that he had a good character.
Lin Yuelan said,” Alright. If you’re really interested in him, I won’t object. You have to know that l, Master, have always advocated that one should pursue one’s own happiness.”
Lin Xinyue shook her head and said,” This… This… Let me think about it!”
Lin Yuelan immediately said,” Yes, yes. Alright, let’s continue the meeting. Be serious and report the situation!”
Next, it was Lin Xinyue and the others’ turn to report on the sales performance for the first half of the year!
After about an hour, everyone reported their business situation.
Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” Yes, you’ve all done well! Continue to work hard in the future!”
“Yes, Master!” Everyone said excitedly.
The things in their hands were getting better and better year by year. They believed that when they wrote the summary report in the second half of the year, their results would be even better.
Lin Yuelan continued,” I won’t say anything else. There’s just one statement. As long as you work hard and do your job conscientiously, l, Master, will definitely not treat you badly!’
” Yes, Master. We will definitely not let you down!” Everyone said in unison.
“Okay, that’s enough. Meeting dismissed!”
As soon as the meeting ended, the meeting room instantly became lively.
Everyone, regardless of whether it was business or private matters, began to chat happily.
Lin Yuelan waved her hand and said,” Alright, you guys can go do your own things. Qingzhu, bring me to Jinmei’s house later.”
Lin Qingzhu replied,” Alright!’
After a moment of silence, Lin Xinyue said,” Master, I want to see Sister Jinmei!”
“Yes, Niaster, we also want to visit her. After all, this girl, Jinmei, got married before all of us. Now that she’s pregnant, it’s good for us to get some good fortune. Don’t you think so?” Zhang Yuanbin added.
“Yes, yes…”
Lin Yuelan thought for a moment and said,” Alright!’
Although she hadn’t diagnosed Lin Jinmei’s situation, she estimated that it was most likely bad news. Therefore, letting these siblings go over could also give her some comfort.
Lin Jinmei married Li Fazhi.
Back then, Lin Jinmei fell in love with Li Fazhi at first sight. In order to pursue Li Fazhi, she let go of her woman’s restraint. It could be said that she was pursuing Li Fazhi relentlessly.
As for Li Fazhi, he rejected her at first. After all, the person he was interested in at first was Lin Yuelan.
Even if there was no possibility between him and Lin Yuelan, he still wanted to keep Lin Yuelan in his heart and chose to give Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan his blessings.
However, under Lin Jinmei’s relentless pestering, he gradually became attracted to Lin Jinmei, this strong, cheerful, and charismatic female shopkeeper.
After that, he fell in love with Lin Jinmei.
It was natural for people who liked each other to walk together.
However, Lin Jinmei still had a layer of restrictions, and that was that she was still a slave who had signed a contract.
She didn’t want to marry Li Fazhi as a slave.
After Lin Yuelan agreed, she told Li Fazhi her identity.
At first, Li Fazhi was shocked, but after hearing about their past experiences, his heart began to ache again.
Then, he promised that he was willing to wait.
This so-called wait was to wait for Lin Jinmei to remove her slave status before getting married.
Initially, Lin Yuelan wanted to return the contract to Lin Jinmei in advance so that she could get married earlier.
However, Lin Jinmei was unwilling and insisted on waiting until the three years were up.
Just four months ago, when their slave status expired, Lin Yuelan returned the contract to them.
However, none of them left. They all stayed by Lin Yuelan’s side and became her qualified subordinates.
Three months ago, when Lin Jinmei and Li Fazhi returned to Qingfeng City to get married, Lin Yuelan sent a generous dowry and a thick gift as her friend and her family..
