Chapter 1450: Even Stirring Up Trouble Comes at a Cost

Granny Long couldn’t help but ask, "Xiao Nan, what kind of company did you start?"

Mengyu looked at this enthusiastic yet often troublesome lady and said, "I have several companies, but currently, there’s only one in the Capital City, and that’s Gunan Company."

When some heard the name Gunan Company, they all gasped. That Gunan Company is said to be valued at no less than tens of millions, and could possibly be in the hundreds of millions!

Someone asked, "Xiao Nan, is Gunan Company your family’s?"

Mengyu nodded, "To be precise, Gunan Company belongs to me personally."

The crowd was stunned: This young girl actually owns a company worth tens of millions?

Yet earlier, they had actually mistaken her for a prostitute.

Would the owner of a company worth tens of millions turn to prostitution for a bit of money?

Mengyu glanced at the expressions on everyone’s faces.

Gunan Company was, of course, the company founded by Nan Ming, with a market value reaching into the hundreds of millions, but others didn’t know that.

By revealing this secret, she wanted everyone to fully understand that she’s not only the eldest lady of the Nan Family but also the owner of a major company.

Perhaps doing this would distance her from these people, and might even bring her unnecessary troubles.

But the soundproofing and surveillance devices she mentioned earlier weren’t just talk. That equates to telling everyone:

The cameras at my gate mean don’t come here and act like a ghost; my courtyard is soundproof, so if you shout or knock, I won’t hear. So, as long as the door is closed, don’t bother trying to find me.

Seeing that the desired effect was achieved, Mengyu gave everyone another sweep with her eyes and said, "After the New Year, my company will expand its recruitment. We will need about a thousand employees, with a monthly salary not less than US$ 100."

Hearing Mengyu’s words, everyone’s jaws dropped: A monthly salary not less than one hundred yuan?

You must know, during this time, everyone’s wages were still only tens of yuan; apprentices earned twenty to thirty, ordinary workers about thirty to forty, and even a department-level cadre only received over forty.

But this Xiao Nan’s company opened with no less than one hundred yuan!

Soon, an informed source said, "I heard that Gunan Company’s employees have very high salaries. One hundred yuan is just for the most basic employee. Those middle-level leaders, I heard, get several hundred or even over a thousand, and the company’s general manager reportedly has an annual salary of one hundred thousand!"

"Impossible, right?"

"Why not possible? My elder sister-in-law’s brother’s wife’s younger sister’s boyfriend works at Gunan Company. His salary is over six hundred yuan."

"Oh my gosh, that’s so high."

Previously, the neighbors didn’t take the cost of stirring up trouble seriously, but now they were anxious.

"We didn’t stir up trouble."

"We were just onlookers."

"We even spoke up for you!"

"And we voluntarily helped test your courtyard’s soundproofing."

Mengyu glanced at those few people and said, "So everyone’s performance, my surveillance equipment has already recorded. Neighbors who spoke up righteously will have their family members prioritized for hiring, indifferent onlookers will compete equally with everyone else, and as for those who incited or joined the trouble, sorry, their families will be refused entry into my company."

As soon as Mengyu spoke, discussions broke out among the neighbors.

"Fortunately, fortunately, I couldn’t stand seeing those people slinging mud at a girl and spoke up to defend her." This was spoken by someone breathing a sigh of relief.

"Earlier, those people making a scene really had a grand old time." This was said gleefully by someone happy to watch the turmoil.

"We were misled too, weren’t we? We just followed along and said a few words; we weren’t the ones who started it." This was uttered by someone blaming the situation.

Many others, however, remained silent.

Who knew that stirring up trouble also came at a cost? But they had to admit that, often, it’s the stirrers who give momentum to those with ulterior motives, successfully suppressing the bullied.

In other words, stirring up trouble over unverifiable things and people is actually wrong too!
