Life 1984

Li Yunhai had thought about this a long time ago. With the general increase in the age of senior executives, if these people were not allowed to retire from leadership positions, young people would have no chance of promotion, and there might be a management gap when they retired. If these people were allowed to retire from management positions, it would be impossible to arrange work for them.

Of course, you can also find a way to directly kick these people out of the company and give them a one-time compensation, which is a quick way to cut the Gordian knot without any worries. Most private companies adopt this method. Therefore, more and more people will have career anxiety after middle age.

However, Li Yunhai felt that these executives were the talents who had accompanied him in conquering the world. Firing the veterans would cause irreversible damage to the company and would also discourage people from having to work hard.

Linzhi had obviously thought deeply about this problem and immediately gave his own solution.

Within the group, senior executives who have reached a certain level can retire to the second line. In leadership positions, due to age reasons, younger personnel can be arranged to take over their positions. After retiring to the second line, these people can still go to work normally, but they will no longer perform leadership duties and still enjoy the same benefits as before until retirement.

Letting senior executives retire to the second line is to achieve the rejuvenation of senior executives. Only by letting these people retire from leadership positions can more young people have more opportunities for promotion. To make way for young people, it is necessary to ensure that those who retire to the second line have the necessary welfare benefits.

Retired second-line personnel should be centrally managed and utilized to give full play to their experience and wisdom and create more value for the development of the group, rather than leaving them alone and wasting resources and value.

These people can be asked to do some service inspections, special investigations, employee assessments, daily business supervision, product research, new business suggestions, etc., which can not only allow these people to make use of their remaining energy, but also create more value.

After listening to his wife, Li Yunhai thought the suggestion was feasible.

The two also discussed that for those who are vice presidents and above, men who reach 50 years old and women who reach 45 years old, they can be allowed to retire to the second line.

By this calculation, the first person to retreat is Lin Xiaofeng.

But Lin Xiaofeng is not only a senior executive, but also a shareholder of the group.

Although Lin Xiaofeng currently holds a relatively small amount of shares, he is still a shareholder after all.

Therefore, Li Yunhai thought that before implementing this policy, he should let Lin Zhi discuss it with Lin Xiaofeng first.

With Lin Xiaofeng's current income and savings, she can retire directly without having to worry about food and clothing.

Linzhi agreed and said that she would talk to her aunt about this matter after returning to Xizhou.

The next day, Li Yunhai, Lin Zhi, and Shen Xiulan did not go to the Canton Fair, but came to the Flower City Museum to see the art exhibition.

Lin Zhi and Shen Xiulan didn't understand painting either, but they both thought Su Wan'er's paintings were beautiful and full of artistic conception.

The exhibition was entrusted to Chen Meilin and Su Waner for management.

There were many people visiting the exhibition, but very few actually bought paintings. At the end of the day, it was good if a few people bought paintings.

Chen Meilin accompanied Li Yunhai and others to visit the exhibition.

After visiting the art exhibition, the group went to the Huacheng Museum for a stroll.

Shen Xiulan was wearing high heels and accidentally sprained her ankle, letting out a soft cry.

Li Yunhai quickly hugged her.

Lin Zhi laughed and said, "After giving birth, I stopped wearing high heels. I feel like I've said goodbye to high heels!"

Shen Xiulan said: "I don't usually wear that much, but I thought I should dress more fashionably when I go out to play!"

Lin Zhi said: "We are mothers of two or three children, why do we still care about these things?"

Shen Xiulan helped Li Yunhai stand steadily, lifted his foot and looked at it, saying, "It's over, the heel is broken, how can I walk?"

Li Yunhai said: "Why not just break both heels and wear them as flat shoes, then go to the shoe store outside and buy a new pair."

Lin Zhi said, "You go with her! Meilin and I will take a look at this museum. I think it's quite interesting."

Li Yunhai first broke the heel of Shen Xiulan's other shoe, and then went out with her.

Linzhi and Chen Meilin continued to walk around the museum.

"Meilin, you have been following Yunhai all the time. Have you discovered anything?" Linzhi suddenly asked.

"Sister Linzhi, what kind of discovery are you talking about?" Chen Meilin asked in confusion.

Lin Zhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm just asking casually, he has been out for so many days, have any beautiful women appeared around him?"

Chen Meilin knew clearly that Lin Zhi was investigating Li Yunhai's post.

She smiled and said, "Of course! I am such a young and beautiful lady, so I don't count, right?"

Lin Zhi said: "Of course you don't count! Besides you, are there any other women?"

Chen Meilin said, "Yes! There are many! Is Su Wan'er considered a beauty? My mom also came to Beijin to visit us. And Zhu Lin, and Gong Li, they are all beauties."

Lin Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Sister Guo, Zhu Lin, and Gong Li, I know all of these three women. They were invited by Yun Hai to hype up his paintings. Well, is there any intimate contact between Su Wan'er and Yun Hai?"

Chen Meilin said, "No, my brother only talks to her about the exhibition. Sister Lin Zhi, what are you worried about?"

Lin Zhi smiled and said, "I'm just asking casually. He's been out for so long, hasn't there been any woman around him? I mean - forget it, you're still a girl, why am I telling you this? I won't say any more."

Chen Meilin chuckled and said, "I see. You mean, my brother has been out for so many days, has he been holding back? Has he not found a woman to play with? Is that right?"

Lin Zhi said embarrassedly: "I do have this suspicion."

Chen Meilin asked, "Did you make love with my brother last night? Do you think he's not strong enough? So you suspect he has other women outside?"

Lin Zhi didn't expect Chen Meilin to be so smart and so clear about the relationship between men and women. She said everything she dared not to say. She blushed slightly and said, "Meilin, this is a secret between us. Don't tell Yunhai."

"I know!" Chen Meilin of course defended Li Yunhai and said, "My brother is very honest and has never met a woman outside. I can testify for him on this point. Because no matter where he goes, he will take me with him."

Lin Zhi nodded and said, "Maybe I'm overthinking it!"

Chen Meilin thought, it turns out that Linzhi doesn’t trust Brother Yunhai 100%!
Otherwise, why would Linzhi check on him?

No wonder Brother Yunhai didn’t take Lin Xin on business trips. Was he afraid that Lin Xin was Lin Zhi’s spy?

The two continued to visit the museum without mentioning it.

Li Yunhai accompanied Shen Xiulan and drove to a nearby shopping mall to buy shoes.

Shen Xiulan chose a pair of flat-heeled leather shoes, bought them, and threw the old shoes into the trash can.

Li Yunhai asked her, "How are you doing recently? Is your heart okay?"

Shen Xiulan said: "Nothing has gone wrong. Anyway, nothing particularly exciting has happened. It doesn't excite me."

Li Yunhai said: "You still have to go to the hospital for regular checkups. Don't underestimate this disease. The older you get, the more harmful it will be."

Shen Xiulan said, "I know, don't worry. I care about my own health more than anyone else. You've been out for so long, don't you miss her?"

Li Yunhai smiled and said, "Yes! I miss her, but I miss you even more."

Shen Xiulan snorted, "Come on! You call her every night, but rarely call me! Do you think I don't know? Many times, when you called her, I was sitting at your house. And you didn't call me afterwards!"

Li Yunhai said, "That's what I'm afraid of. I'm afraid you'll be at my house. If I call her and then call you, won't she catch me in the act?"

Shen Xiulan whispered, "Yunhai, I miss you! Let's find a place to rest?"

Li Yunhai understood what she meant.

With Lin Zhi around, it was difficult for Li Yunhai to date Shen Xiulan.

Now is a good opportunity.

Li Yunhai checked the time and took Shen Xiulan to a nearby Wuyang Hotel to book a room.

The two of them are an old married couple and don't need too much foreplay.

After entering the room, the two went straight to the point.

After half an hour.

Shen Xiulan lay on Li Yunhai's chest, breathing heavily and said: "When you go on business trips in the future, take me with you!"

Li Yunhai stroked her smooth back and said, "Okay, then you have to change your job. As the vice president of finance, how can you go on so many business trips with me?"

Shen Xiulan sighed quietly, knowing that it was unrealistic.

Fearing that Lin Zhi might become suspicious, the two hurriedly left the hotel and returned to the museum to look for Lin Zhi. Lin Zhi looked at Shen Xiulan and felt that something was wrong.

Shen Xiulan stroked her cheek and asked with a guilty conscience, "Linzhi, is my face bruised?"

Lin Zhi shook her head slightly and said, "By the way, Xiulan, where is your necklace? I remember you were wearing a gold necklace around your neck just now."

Shen Xiulan touched her neck, her expression changed, and she said, "Hey, my necklace is really gone!"

This necklace was given to her by Li Yunhai.

Shen Xiulan doesn't usually wear these gold ornaments, but she felt that she hadn't seen Li Yunhai for a long time, so she had to dress herself up and give Li Yunhai a good impression.

That's why she wears a necklace and high heels, just to make herself more attractive.

Shen Xiulan knew that the gold necklace was most likely accidentally dropped on the bed when they were making love in the hotel.

She said, "I'll go look for it. Maybe it fell somewhere."

Lin Zhi said: "It's a gold necklace, it's so shiny, anyone who sees it will pick it up! You won't be able to find it if you go back to look for it."

Shen Xiulan said: "I'll give it a try."

Li Yunhai said: "Forget it! It's just a gold necklace. Just buy another one."

Shen Xiulan rolled her eyes at him: "Do you think I am you? A billionaire! A necklace is still very important to me!"

After saying that, she left in a hurry.

Li Yunhai probably knew what was going on, and said to Lin Zhi, "I'll go help Xiulan find it."

Lin Zhi said: "Forget it if you can't find it! Don't waste time."

Li Yunhai said: "Okay!"

He ran forward and caught up with Shen Xiulan.

The two came outside.

Shen Xiulan said: "The necklace must have fallen on the bed in the hotel! Let's go back and look for it."

Li Yunhai said: "We booked an hourly room and have already checked out. The hotel waiter must have cleaned the room. Even if the gold necklace fell on the bed, it would have been picked up by the waiter. They will not admit it."

Shen Xiulan said: "How do you know if you don't try?"

Li Yunhai was helpless and said, "We don't have to go. I'll just ask Zhuang Yong to go there."

He called Zhuang Yong over and gave him some instructions.

Zhuang Yong nodded and said, "Boss, don't worry, I know what to do!"

Li Yunhai said: "Pay attention to the method. The gold necklace must have been picked up by the waiter who cleaned the room. It depends on whether they will hand it over."

Zhuang Yong said: "Understood!"

He drove to his previous hotel.

Li Yunhai said to Shen Xiulan: "Don't worry, as long as the gold necklace was dropped in the hotel, Zhuang Yong will have a way to get them to hand it over."

Shen Xiulan pouted and said, "You gave me that necklace. I can't lose it."

Li Yunhai said: "If it is really lost, I will buy you a new one."

Shen Xiulan smiled and said, "Okay!"

Li Yunhai said: "I'll buy you a diamond one."

Shen Xiulan shook her head and said, "I don't want diamonds, I like gold!"

Li Yunhai said hello.

They didn't go back to look for Lin Zhi, but chatted outside, waiting for Zhuang Yong to come back.

The hotel is actually near the museum, not far away.

Zhuang Yong came back soon.

He got out of the car, walked to Li Yunhai and said, "Boss, the hotel denied that they had picked up the gold necklace. I found the waitress who cleaned the room, a woman in her 40s. I asked her questions and I could see that she felt a little guilty. I'm sure she was the one who picked up the gold necklace."

Li Yunhai groaned and said, "Forget it! I'll buy a new one."

Shen Xiulan said: "That's what you bought in Hong Kong! That style may not be available in China!"

Li Yunhai scratched his head and said, "Then I'll go to Hong Kong and buy it for you!"

Shen Xiulan said, "Oh, what a pity! I really like that necklace. The style of the pendant is very suitable for matching clothes and skirts."

Li Yunhai smiled helplessly.

Zhuang Yong said, "Boss, I'll think of another way! I'll make that waiter give the gold necklace back!"

Li Yunhai said: "Don't do anything illegal. It's not worth it for a gold necklace."

Zhuang Yong said calmly: "I have a way!"

The museum is huge and it takes several hours to walk around it.

Li Yunhai and Shen Xiulan returned to the museum and met up with Lin Zhi.

Lin Zhi asked with a smile: "How is it? Did you find it?"

Shen Xiulan smiled bitterly and said, "I can't find it!"

Lin Zhi said: "I knew it, someone must have picked it up! Forget it! As long as the person is not lost!"

In the evening, the group had dinner outside and returned home.

Su Wan'er said to Li Yunhai, "I've been busy with the art exhibition recently. I haven't practiced painting for a long time. There happens to be a room here, so I want to practice well."

Li Yunhai said: "Miss Su, you can do whatever you want, just treat this place as your own home."

Su Wan'er smiled and went into her room.

Li Yunhai and Shen Xiulan followed her in and watched her create.

Linzhi was in the yard, tending to the flowers and plants with Chen Meilin.

Suddenly, a voice came from outside the door: "Excuse me, does Mr. Li Yunhai live here?"

Lin Zhi exclaimed, walked over and asked, "Who is it?"

"Hello, we are from the Public Security Bureau. May I ask if Mr. Li Yunhai lives here?"

"Yes! What can I do for you?" Lin Zhi opened the door and was even more surprised to see two policemen standing outside.

A policeman took out a plastic bag, handed it over, and said, "We helped Mr. Li find his lost gold necklace. Where is Mr. Li?"

Lin Zhi smiled and said, "I am his wife! Can this necklace be found? Where did you find it?"

The police said, "The waitress at the Wuyang Hotel found it on the bed. She wanted to keep it for herself, so she lied. We used some tricks to make her hand it over. Please take a look, is this the necklace?"

Lin Zhi was completely stunned!

hotel?

This necklace was actually found by the waiter on the bed in the hotel?

What does this mean? (End of this chapter)
