Eleanor was secretly delighted. Six thousand copper coins was a full two thousand copper coins higher than her previous salary, and Meg had even promoted her to the position of deputy editor.
A promotion and a raise!
She never thought that she would achieve her goal after her boss was arrested.
Eleanor's fatigue was swept away, and she looked at Meg energetically and asked, "Then what do I need to do?"
Meg thought for a while and said, "For the next few days, you just need to come to the company every day and clean up the place. There's nothing for you to do for the time being."
"Huh?" Eleanor was stunned.
"I'm preparing a book, but it hasn't reached the stage where I need a publisher yet," Meg explained.
Eleanor nodded. Although she didn't know what Meg was preparing, as an obedient employee, she wouldn't ask if her boss didn't say anything.
"Also, find those employees who are owed wages and ask them to come here three days later at ten o 'clock in the morning to collect their wages. If they don't have a job, they can also prepare for interviews. I might be hiring a few new employees," Meg added.
"You want to give them back their wages?" Eleanor was a little surprised.
These old employees had already given up hope of getting back their wages. She didn't expect Meg to take the initiative to bring this up.
"Yes, I've received the company's assets, but I also have to bear the corresponding debts. This was the rule set before the auction." Meg nodded. "I'll have to trouble you with this."
"No problem, I'll inform them." Eleanor nodded.
"These are the company keys. Take a bunch." Meg handed a bunch of keys to Eleanor.
Eleanor was flattered and accepted it. In the past, only the managing editor had a second set of keys besides the boss.
"Work hard. There will be plenty of opportunities for promotions and raises in the future," Meg encouraged.
"Okay." Eleanor nodded heavily, but she thought to herself, 'There are only two of us in the company, where else can I get promoted? Is this the reason why I added a deputy editor in front of my title? '
Meg looked up at the signboard.
"I'll get someone to tear it down in a moment," Eleanor said immediately.
Meg looked at her and said, "I'll make the signboard myself. You can just deal with this old one. Also, find someone to deal with the other things in the publishing house."
"Everything?"
"Yes, I plan to renovate the publishing house. It's too outdated." Meg nodded. He thought of the uncomfortable sofa in his boss' office.
"Alright."
Eleanor swallowed her words back into her stomach. She thought that the new boss was indeed generous. Back then, Delmar, that old miser, had been mending and mending a broken sofa for three years. The office appliances of the employees were all bought from the second-hand market.
Meg nodded and rode away on his bicycle.
It was good to have an obedient employee. It would be annoying to have a commander without an army.
Now that he had a publishing company, the printing could be handled by the Night Elves. Now, he only lacked the finished product of an explosive book.
Meg still had some confidence in Cynthia's strength.
…
Meg returned to the restaurant. From afar, he saw a girl standing at the entrance of the restaurant. She was looking up at a pear tree that had bloomed at the entrance.
"Teacher Luna, why are you here?" Meg asked with a smile as he stopped his bicycle and looked at Luna, who was wearing a cotton dress.
"You're back." Luna turned to look at Meg with a gentle smile on her face. "I'm here to discuss with Mr. Meg about starting classes. The children have been attending classes for a week, and the effect of the enlightenment is good. After our discussion, we feel that we can start some practical classes to let the children experience and adapt."
"Then let's go in and talk. The restaurant is not open today." Meg opened the door and went in.
Luna followed him in. Seeing Meg coming out of the kitchen with tea, she asked casually, "Is the madam not home?"
"She has something to do." Meg placed a cup of warm water in front of Luna.
"Oh, that's a bit unfortunate. I think she should be a very beautiful woman."
"Yes, a very beautiful woman." Meg nodded with a smile.
Luna smiled faintly and took out a class schedule and placed it on the table. "Take a look at the class schedule. I have arranged two classes a week for you, one on Monday and one on Friday. The class duration is two hours. What do you think?"
"If there's no urgent matter, I guarantee full attendance." Meg nodded with a smile. Luna's schedule avoided the restaurant's working hours and left some time for him. It could be said that she was very thoughtful.
As for the two-hour duration of each class, Mag was the one who had suggested it.
Learning to cook was different from learning in class. It was about practice. Without enough practice time, even if you were a genius, it would be difficult to become an excellent chef.
Meg only had two classes a week, which added up to less than four hours. If he wanted to nurture an excellent chef, this amount of time was far from enough.
However, Meg liked to accept challenges. He wanted to make a group of little fellows fall in love with cooking and nurture them into the best chefs on the Norland Continent in the future. He wanted to make Hope School the Huangpu Military Academy of the culinary world. Just thinking about it made his blood boil!
"Are we selecting students tomorrow?" Meg asked.
"Yes. We have already informed the children of the various practical classes, and let them choose to sign up voluntarily." Luna nodded with a smile. "The number of children who chose your God of Cookery Advanced Course is the highest. There are more than 400 of them."
"I'm actually so popular?" Meg was a little surprised. He thought that learning to cook was a tough and tiring thing, and the children would not like it the most.
"These children are scared of being poor. If they become chefs, at least they won't have to worry about going hungry," Luna said softly with a pitiful look in her eyes.
Meg's heart also tightened. He recalled the time when he had just transmigrated to this world. Amy hugged the hard and coarse biscuits and chewed them with relish. Some children had a tougher life than that.
"I can only take in 100 students in the first class. It seems like I have to be ruthless and eliminate a lot of children," Meg said with a smile.
"What are your requirements? We can eliminate some children first to reduce your workload tomorrow," Luna asked.
Meg thought for a while, and said, "Children who are too young can't reach the stove, and can't carry the pot. Therefore, in terms of height and strength, I will limit it to 1.3 meters and a pot that can hold half a pot of water with one hand. As for the rest, I will decide after I see the children."
Luna nodded, and took out a pen and paper to record.
Luna put away the pen and paper, and looked at Meg with concern. "I heard that you encountered a rumor spreading incident recently. Have you settled it?"
