Chapter 42

  "Hehe, I knew you were different from the average graduate... Hmm, which essential oil do you think I should use now?" Feng Lei finally couldn't help but ask.

  "Your nose is a bit oily and your cheeks seem a bit dry?"

  "Right! Mixed type, I myself go to my beauty salon once or twice a week, and sometimes also entertain clients there. There are also special techniques for male customers."

  "After using toner, don't wait for a while, immediately apply 2-3 drops of lotus oil. In winter, just use some oil-free lotion, such as ique's oil-free butter... or find a studio to customize according to your own formula."

  "Oh? Is this okay?" Feng Li's excited and elevated mood was completely unable to be concealed.

  "Yes, lotus oil and orchid oil are classic products. Lotus is suitable for combination skin, while orchid is suitable for dry skin. Using oil in summer is also good, but be sure to use oil-absorbing paper to absorb excess oil."

  "Hmm, I knew this, going oily is actually caused by lack of water, right?!"

  "Right. However, if you go out often, it's still better to use oil-free moisturizing products. I think your beauty salon can use both high-end and customized products together, but customized ones are more troublesome and may require the manufacturer to obtain a license."

  "This is great! We can set up our own company, do OEM production, and then apply for it ourselves. This way, our firm can still have multiple agency declaration businesses, even if we don't charge a fee, we can also embed it in the consulting fee!"

  “……”

  “……”

  The big shareholder is equivalent to the boss of a professional market, and the lawyers below are individual small franchisees. The two sides rely on each other, benefit from each other, but neither has any capital to spare. Every day's water and electricity, every month's social security property management, every year's expenses depreciation... both parties have to work hard every day.

  Chen Ao Sheng doesn't want to live a life of overworking and dying young, but if he doesn't do that, there's no way for him to afford the luxuries he wants - what a contradiction!

  I got along very well with the few women and finally settled on starting work next month.

  There's only 4,000 yuan left in the card, and that's after being very frugal. Okay, if I don't buy anything else, just spend on transportation and toiletries, and only receive but not make calls on my phone, I can still get by for more than half a year.

  Her mind was made up after such a calculation.

  The next day, when I talked to the boss of the translation agency where Nandao sat, the other party's only thought was that my eyesight was not good.

  "Charlotte, oh dear, I just need to say that this is a translation by a lawyer with two bachelor's degrees from F University in law and English, and the client will definitely have no doubts! By the way, are you still taking on-site interpretation orders?"

  "One is to exercise my ability, and the other is also to have more contact with potential customers."

  "Great, let's collude from now on! If your clients have any translation needs, uh, large volumes, you won't charge extra, so introduce them to me, the more minority languages the better, this is high-paying! Haha haha haha."

  Chen Huaixing was speechless.

  No sooner had he finished speaking than a small company asked him to find a translator who knew some law to attend the reception of potential big clients.

  Chen Huasheng urgently had his business card printed at the law firm.

  Hey, I didn't have much to do with this line of work in my past life, but this life I'm really doing it myself.

  My parents came over on the weekend.

  To celebrate daughter finding formal work, everyone went out for a meal.

  "Niang niang, have you prepared the clothes for work? Is the money enough?"

  "Enough, this month's salary from the translation agency and the labor fees for on-site interpretation have all been received." She was satisfied with the amount, so she swept the streets and stocked up two shopping carts of daily necessities. She also bought a small washing machine and an indoor drying rack! Okay, now it's back to less than 4,000, looks like even with more life experience, women are still born with a love for shopping that hasn't improved at all. "My biggest advantage is not having to pay rent, otherwise I would be very strapped for cash by now - right, Dad, this simply decorated house, the rent is also over 500 yuan now, and the price has increased by 30% compared to when we bought it, not counting taxes. So you don't need to worry about not getting back your investment."

  "Ah! I stopped worrying about this long ago!" Old Dad, who's always checking the housing price trend whenever he comes over. It wasn't until last year when all the houses in the neighborhood were handed over and people started moving in, prices began to rise, that his fragile little heart started beating normally as he looked at the beautiful price trend chart he drew himself.

  "Your dad goes around the nearby houses every two months to compare prices, and it wasn't until this year that he finally believed the house prices were really going up."

  "Dad changed the subject somewhat awkwardly, "You won't believe it, but the housing prices here are really outrageous! The increase in price is almost as much as our house back home! And look, the usable area is only ten square meters bigger... what a huge difference!"

  His mother patted his arm. She was also very happy, after all, it was the hard-earned money of half a lifetime, and naturally didn't want to lose out. "Alright, let's go to the bank next, and buy another bag of laundry detergent."

  "Mom, there's still a new unopened bag, no need to buy anything." Chen Huan was not hiding that he was a hoarding enthusiast.

  "Alright, let's go to the bank." Still repaying loans. I reckon banks hate seeing people like them, having money but not spending it, saving everything and repaying early, making the bank earn less.

  Chen Heng took advantage of the opportunity to go to the bathroom and settled the bill for eating, reasoning that "I don't have the ability to repay loans yet, but I can always afford to pay for food."

  "Baby, I think we still have about 7 years of mortgage left, no rush haha. Or do you think we should buy another one?"

  "Wait until I have a stable income first." Chen Huai Cheng immediately refused, "Mom, even if you work in the state-owned sector, there is no iron rice bowl now, so it's still necessary to make reservations."

  Mom nodded thoughtfully, "Yeah, that's right."

  It's inevitable that I'll move out eventually... or maybe not. Chen Xiao Cheng hesitated, and in the end didn't rush to look for a house near the law firm.

  With her past experience and grasp of her own personality, being able to work at that law firm for five years was already a long time; others easily decorated their houses only to end up moving to an even farther place.

  Let's talk about it when we have the first payment.

  Signed a labor contract and internship agreement, ran to the Judicial Bureau, handed over a stack of documents, Chen Haosong became a lawyer before the end of the year, um, reserve, formal qualifications need to be approved next year.

  So her business card reads "Director's Assistant", and her salary is actually allocated from the director's own income.

  She came to make up for the shortcomings of her predecessor. The former assistant failed the judicial examination twice and jumped ship under depression, going to a legal service agency as a consultant for debt collection and adultery investigation, it is said that the job has a slightly higher risk but the returns are also correspondingly high.
