Fang Ya said seriously to Wang Xu, “If you are interested in this, I will consider sending you to study. Are you confident to learn well?”
“Study?” Wang Xu looked at Fang Ya in surprise.
“Yes! Go and gain some additional professional knowledge. Skills that would come helpful in the future!” Fang Ya said sincerely to Wang Xu.
“I don’t have the energy to learn these, so I hope you can…”
Wang Xu stopped Fang Ya halfway.
“I’m willing! Sister Ya, I’m willing!” Wang Xu said without hesitation.
Fang Ya smiled with satisfaction. “Then I’ll look for suitable learning modules and content as soon as possible. You have to study hard!”
Wang Xu looked at Fang Ya gratefully and held onto her hand, refusing to let go. “Sister Ya, thank you! Thank you for giving me a chance!”
The smile on Fang Ya’s face deepened. “No need to thank me. You simply have to work hard. In the future, I’ll need more of your help!”
Wang Xu immediately stood up to show her determination. “I won’t let you down!”
Looking at Wang Xu’s serious expression, Fang Ya could not help but laugh.
Upon Wang Xu’s advice, Fang Ya took Wang Xu to the shop to check on the renovation.
As soon as they walked into the shop, they heard He Kun’s voice coming from the inside. “Old Jun, you can’t do it like this!”
A slightly hoarse voice answered snarkily, “Oh boy, young man, stop busting my balls. Put away your manuals, you learn tricks like these while on the job!”
“But, this isn’t right!” He Kun still insisted. “If you do it like that, you leave that pole dangling without support. It’s going to fall. It needs to be reinforced!”
The hoarse voice grew a little impatient. “Why do you care? It’s not for you to use.”
“You can’t say that! This is a shop. There will be customers in the future. Even if there are not customers, the shopowners would be in danger!” He Kun said anxiously.
“Look at you, young man. Ever since you first showed up, you’ve been treating yourself like a big shot!” The hoarse voice was a little dissatisfied.
“Let me tell you, I’m the contractor here. Everyone here has to listen to me! Stop getting in my way!” The hoarse voice berated loudly.
Hearing this, Fang Ya finally said, “He Kun, come here for a moment.”
The room immediately quieted down.
He Kun hurried out and saw Fang Ya and Wang Xu standing at the door.
“Sis, why are you here?”He Kun looked at Fang Ya in surprise. “It would have been nice if you had called before you came!”
“Called?” Fang Ya looked at He Kun and smiled. “Would I have heard such an interesting thing if I had called?”
At this moment, Foreman Bao came out in a hurry.
He tidied his clothes that were rolled up above his belly and took the cigarette out of his mouth. “Hey, lady boss, why are you here?”
Fang Ya was not very pleased with Foreman Bao’s attitude, so she said, “I told you to call me Boss Fang.”
“Hahah, this woman, look at her go. Call me Boss Fang!” Foreman Bao smiled nonchalantly.
“Can’t a woman be a boss?” Fang Ya retorted with a stern voice.
Foreman Bao did not expect Fang Ya to react like this, so he said, “Hey, it’s just a title. You don’t have to mind it so much.”
“It’s just a title, you don’t have to mind it so much, so please do as I ask,” Fang Ya replied bluntly.
“Also, the renovations here should be redone according to my requests,” Fang Ya looked around and continued.
“Hey, we don’t need to do that!” The contractor immediately stopped her.
“It’s almost finished, why would you still want to redo it?” The contractor asked with a calm expression.
“Is it better to redo it now or later?” Fang Ya did not back down and pressured him.
The contractor did not expect the gentle-looking Fang Ya to be so difficult to talk to. His expression instantly changed. “I say, you woman!”
“What of it?” Fang Ya did not flinch at all.
Foreman Bao was stunned for a moment, then he snorted and said to the workers inside, “Brothers, this lady boss says she won’t pay us!”
More than a dozen workers ran out one after another, hurling abusive words.
Seeing this, Wang Xu hurried to Fang Ya’s side.
He Kun subconsciously walked to Fang Ya’s side.
Fang Ya looked at the two of them with a smile on her face.
A person’s reaction in a critical moment was usually the most genuine reaction. The two people in front of her were obviously on her side.
In the face of the furious workers, Fang Ya’s expression did not change at all. “We agreed on the contract before. The construction will be carried out according to my requirements.
“If you are unable to complete it according to the requirements, then return the deposit that I paid. I don’t need you here anymore,” Fang Ya said coldly.
“We have been here for so long, we’ve put so many man-hours into this. Are we going to quit just because you say so?” The contractor said fiercely.
“If you can complete the work according to the requirements, I will naturally settle the payment for you as usual..” Fang Ya was not frightened by the contractor’s imposing manner.
