During the Spring Festival, no matter how good the business is, the shops will be closed for a few days. Hudson Jewelry held an all-staff meeting before the holidays. In addition to saying some words of thanks, encouragement and blessings, of course a very important point was to ask everyone to come back to work on time after the new year. Salaries were paid directly to their bank accounts, and at this time, there was a stack of red envelopes on the conference table. This was filled with bonuses. In order to motivate everyone, many companies and enterprises would use cash to distribute bonuses to everyone, which would make people feel more satisfied. Because cash that you could see and touch was much more specific than the numbers on your bank card. And of course, using red envelopes was to prevent employees from comparing their payments to others. Everyone was very happy when they got the red envelope with their names on it. Although Irving knew that the red envelope could not h
After celebrating the New Year in his hometown in Catskill, Irving brought his family to his villa in New York City.But life in the city was different from life in the countryside. For some old parents, their simple and easy-going farming life in the countryside was more than enough for them.The bubbly city of New York was just too much for the to bear.As a result, within a few days of staying, his parents were clamoring to go back. Because he was about to go to work, Irving had to call a car to take them back."Dad, Mom, isn't it nice here? Why do you want to go home so soon?" Irving felt helpless.Irving's father looked at Irving and said, "What's so good about the city that will make me risk my mentality for? No matter the appeal of the city to you, young ones, we, elderly ones, still like to live in our hometown. We also taking care of the farm and we're raising a lot of animals at home now. It's been too long with no one at home. If they want, your mother and your sister can h
After the jewelry industry resumed its bubbly business, Irving also went back to work. Although he was only an assistant manager, he could directly make decisions on many matters in the company. So Irving also had to talk to everyone in the first all-staff meeting after the start of work.He was much more confident now, and due to several events a year ago, everyone had changed their view of him a lot. There was no disdain and contempt for him as when he was first appointed as the assistant manager.After Garner also inspired the whole staff, everyone began to return to their posts and start working.After the company started work, the first person ushered in was Finnegan.Garner was very enthusiastic when he saw Finnegan and quickly invited him to his office.At the end of last year, his company's inventory was even lower than the demands. Thanks to Finnegan, he sold a large number of gemstones to them, for which Garner was very grateful."Mr Garner, I came here today to borrow some
Before leaving for Jacksonville, Irving, Finnegan and the others got together again after the meeting. He asked them if he needed to prepare anything, but Finnegan said that he didn't need anything, as long as he left with them. The tone of his words made Irving feel that he was really like a lieutenant. As long as he was with them, their trip would go smoothly. When he arrived at the hotel, Irving saw that besides Finnegan, there were many people there. After everyone else saw Irving appear, they all looked at him curiously. In such a short period of time after debuting on the appraisal stage, he had discovered gemstones after gemstones. There were really not many people sitting here who had such a record. Irving was now the director of the Jewelry Association, and his position was ahead of these people. He was on the same level as Jillian and the others. Finnegan introduced everyone with a smile. "Can I have your attention please. Some of you may not know this little gentleman,
When they went to Jacksonville, they had discussed it in advance. They all drove to the entrance of the highway to gather, and then set off to Jacksonville together.When he reached the intersection, Irving suddenly saw a familiar figure. Yasmin? Could it be that she also wanted to go to Jacksonville? These were all big men, so he believed it would be somewhat inconvenient for her as a girl.Yasmin saw Irving's doubtful eyes and raised her eyebrows, "What? I can't go?"Irving explained a little uncomfortably, "No, not at all. I'm just curious why you didn't say you'll be going together with us before."Yasmin looked at Irving proudly and said, "I told boss Garner that I had never been to a gemstone carving competition before and wanted to expand my knowledge, and I met Miss Jayne here. So she and I happen to have a companion."Miss Jayne was the only female boss. She was not only the only woman among the group of people who went to Jacksonville this time, but also the only woman in t
The meeting on the first day of the Gemstone Sculpture Competition was all about the development of some industries and the problems encountered. There were also some media outlets on the scene following the reports.This was a Gemstone carving competition that was only held once a year. People from the national Gemstone circle would gather here, and it was hosted by the Treasures Association. As an official event, it must be pompous.After the meeting, the presidents and directors of the Gemstone associations in various places must attend the meeting. Although Irving had just joined the Gemstone association, he had the title of a director after all, so he had to follow suit.Because of the large number of people, the meeting lasted several hours before it ended. When the meeting eventually ended, everyone started to yawn out of tiredness.After coming out of the venue, Irving vaguely felt that someone was watching him with some malice.He turned and looked around, finally spotting a
On the day of the carving competition, the entire square was packed with different people. If Irving and the others hadn't had a sign issued by the organizer, they probably wouldn't have been able to squeeze in.The problem was that Yasmin was not from the Treasures Association, so she could only watch the fun from outside.The covered gemstones carving machines they saw yesterday were revealed to everyone today. The carvers were sitting next to the machines, with some raw stone materials placed on the table, but they were all ordinary gemstones.After all, this was a carving competition, as long as they could show off their carving skills.At this time, the contestants were all staring at the raw materials in front of them, thinking about what kind of thing they would use this stones to carve out.Anyway, the competition hadn't officially started yet, so they have plenty of time to think about it.Before the official competition, there was a small ceremony on the stage. Experts, big
When things became such a mess, although Irving didn't leave, he couldn't keep up his spirits.There were still many people looking at him with undisguised sarcasm on their faces. Irving didn't dare to open his phone, for fear that he would see his own emoticon when he opened it.Finnegan felt better when he saw Irving so depressed. The longer he was in contact with Irving, the more he discovered that this young man was really powerful. Whether he was gambling on stones or appraising treasures, he had never been weak. He had never seen anything like this before. He had never even seen him drunk before.The experts on the stage were evaluating the gem carvings. Everyone used the same gemstone, so what they needed to look at now was the carving. The craftsmanship.Irving now really felt what it means to live in a second like a year. He felt as if the eyes of the people around him were about to melt him. He really wished there was a hole in the ground that he could crawl into. It was rea
