"Alright, I'll bring it to you tomorrow!" Yu Songyu said, striding out of the broadcasting room. She was heading to the Supply and Marketing Association to take a look.
The Supply and Marketing Association was bustling with activity; it seemed to be doing well, but there appeared to be a shortage of staff. "Xiao Yu, we might need to hire at least one more salesperson here!"
Since Wang Zhao had changed into clean and tidy clothes, his demeanor had improved significantly. "Well, I'll leave this matter to you. By the way, let's also hire someone for accounting; you can take charge of management from now on. If you do well, there will be a bonus at the end of the year!"
Trust those you employ; if you doubt them, don't use them. Yu Songyu believed in Wang Zhao's character and his abilities. "Alright!"
Wang Zhao didn't hesitate at all. He could learn what he didn't know. Yu Songyu had pulled him out of the mire, so he was determined to do every task she assigned him well.
"By the way, don't slack off on your studies; you might need them in the future. Also, have you acquired any antiques recently?"
"Yes, I sent two trustworthy brothers to collect some from the small courtyard. Let me take you to see!"
The small courtyard was neatly organized by Wang Zhao; it looked clean and tidy. "I live in this room, and that one is already tidied up for you to use!"
Yu Songyu opened the door and found that it had indeed been arranged quite well. The floor was clean, and there were new bedding on the kang.
"Hmm?" Yu Songyu looked at him in confusion. Since she wasn't living there, why had he prepared bedding?
"Oh, this is because I was worried that sometimes if you got tired and didn't want to go back, you could rest here."
"I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful. Go get your things!"
He must have paid for all these himself; asking others to collect items would also require spending money.
When he returned with his things, Yu Songyu took out several Large Unity bills from her pocket. "You've done well; starting this month, your salary will increase by a bit. This amount will serve as your operational funds for collecting antiques for me—whether it's transportation fees for your brothers or service fees—keep track of the accounts; I will check them often."
Yu Songyu handed him the money and casually opened the bundle he had placed on the table. There were quite a few items, probably around five or six. A pair of exquisite candlesticks, seemingly made of brass. A thick rectangular piece of jade, its edges engraved with intricate inscriptions. A pair of beautiful earrings made from an unknown material, along with three porcelain bowls of varying quality.
With the four or five items she had collected earlier, she now had nearly ten pieces, making a trip to the antique market worthwhile. There was also the Imperial Green Bracelet her grandmother had given her last time. Although she had no intention of selling it, she was curious and wanted to get it appraised.
Yu Songyu was intently fiddling with these trinkets, completely unaware that the man beside her was watching her with rapt attention, lost in thought. This was quite interesting!
Her delicate fingers played with the piece of Ancient Jade, covered in tiny engravings. A strand of hair fell from her forehead, adding to her allure. At that moment, her posture was languid; her body leaned halfway against the table, her figure graceful and her face stunningly beautiful—simply captivating in an unintentional way.
Wang Zhao felt his heart race and an inexplicable nervousness wash over him. He couldn't let himself feel this way; after all, the person sitting in front of him was his benefactor. Even if he harbored feelings for her, he had to strive to suppress them. Moreover, she already had someone in her life and would soon be getting married.
And what about him? He was just an ordinary and pitiful person—how could he possibly deserve such a wonderful girl? For him, being able to silently guard her side was already a tremendous blessing!
