Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

The next morning.

Song Yanxi put on her Bulgari floral sunglasses.

These glasses were given to her by her husband; he had bought them on a whim during their last trip to Sanlitun.

The price wasn't too high, just under 500,000 yuan, a little over 400,000 yuan to be precise.

Previously, she was reluctant to buy anything, but now she chose only the most expensive items.

There wasn't much time to compare, as the more expensive options are generally not too bad.

She never drove any of her three Porsche Cayennes, the F12 had a decent number of heads turning, but the LaFerrari was a bit more outrageous.

The sound of fueling up alone, a light tap on the accelerator, and all eyes within a hundred meters would turn her way.

At first, she felt a bit uneasy, but eventually, she got used to it.

Just like these sunglasses she was wearing, she wouldn't have dared to think about spending tens of thousands on a pair in the past.

Especially just for blocking the sun.

Now, even a plain outfit she wore wouldn't run for less than ten thousand yuan.

It made sense why Chen An'an could nonchalantly smash a newly bought limited edition bag on the ground outside the LV store.

It really was no big deal.

A LaFerrari would turn heads one hundred percent of the time, even in this villa neighborhood.

Her husband had even mentioned buying a large Siheyuan within the second ring road this year, which Song Yanxi thought wouldn't be too difficult either.

Even the slightly nicer Siheyuans were priceless these days, with prices starting in the billions.

But they could afford one now.

Water Cloud Space wasn't too far from their home either, just over a ten-minute drive.

When the car stopped at the school gate, the people nearby recognized whose it was and would greet her with a smile.

It was September 5th now, and the beauticians' salaries were due on the 10th.

Song Yanxi called her Chief Financial Officer over.

She was a woman with high academic qualifications, already 29 years old this year.

"Don't calculate last month's salaries just yet. Inform all the financial staff to double the manual commission for the store beauticians and also increase the base salary by two times, based on the existing figure."

"Starting from last month."

"What?" But last month's salaries had already been calculated.

Following this standard, that meant a comprehensive increase, not a slight raise but an outright doubling.

She was even tempted to learn to be a beautician herself at the prospect of such income.

The CEO's orders were, of course, to be followed; the Chief Financial Officer immediately notified the entire finance department to recalculate the salaries.

Chen Qi, who learned of the news quickly, also ran over: "Sister-in-law, why did I hear from finance that we're recalculating salaries?"

Chen Qi was just a filler, spending half her time taking care of the two little ones at home.

"It's your brother's idea."

Song Yanxi said with a smile, "He thinks our family's profits are too high and we must spend more on our employees. You go announce it in the group chat too. Say that last month's payroll will come out a little later."

"Alright, I'll do it right away."

Chen Qi had her own little office, albeit a small one.

A large computer was placed on it, and rubbing her hands together, she thought about how her brother was the sole major shareholder of Water Cloud Space.

Whatever needed to be done here, their family had the final say.

Chen Qi turned on the computer, accessed the work group:

"Ladies, I'm sorry to tell you that the pay slips will be issued a little late."

No one said a word below; if it was late, then it was late, it wasn't a big deal.

The boss wasn't going to delay their wages anyway.

Chen Qi felt it was dull; no one seemed surprised at all.

She then asked in the chat, "Don't you want to know why?"

"Why?"

A naively straightforward beautician popped up.

"Why are you the only one asking? Where is everyone else?"

"They're all busy working, I just finished up!"

"I see," Chen Qi giggled, "then let me tell you something in secret. Last month's salary won't be calculated based on the previous standards anymore. Just now, our big boss said that all beauticians' salaries will double again, starting from last month. Isn't that a surprise, aren't you thrilled?"

The silly little beautician bit into her large steamed bun, "What are you talking about? My salary last month was almost twenty-six thousand, which is pretty good, right?"

"Very good, indeed. Then I must congratulate you," she said.

Chen Qi continued, "Your commission for labor just doubled, and your base salary tripled. Do you have a calculator nearby? Go on, calculate it!"

The silly little beautician: "…!"

"You must be kidding me, I don't fall for telecommunication scams."

"Why would I lie to you? I'm the boss's sister Chen Qi, I get the news firsthand."

"Ah? You're the great ancestor Chen Qi?"

Chen Qi: "…"

How did she suddenly become an ancestor?

However, with this news, she nearly blew up the chat where others were lurking silently.

"Qiqi the ancestor has boundless magical powers, invincible in attack, undefeated in battle."

"Grand Immortal Qiqi, your chariot pervades Central Plains, your divine powers vast and magical abilities limitless."

"Great God Qiqi, what's going on? How come the salaries are suddenly increasing?"

"Isn't a salary raise a good thing?"

Chen Qi liked to stir up excitement, "My brother said that you all have been working so hard. He wanted you to earn more, to be able to buy houses and cars in Capital City through your own efforts. Are you happy or not?"

"Very happy, very touched."

"Sister Qiqi, your brother is really great."

"Our boss is so generous; this salary increase is quite unexpected."

"Haha, you're the happiest one; your salary last month already broke fifty thousand. If it doubles again, won't you be making a hundred thousand?"

"Right, at this rate, I might be able to save up enough for a down payment this year."

"Truly delightful."

Everybody beneath the chat turned into happy sheep.

Chen Qi was also relishing the moment; she felt as if her brother had done another great thing.

In an instant, he made these two hundred-plus beauticians so happy they could take off flying.

She even called her sister-in-law over to witness the occasion.

In the afternoon, the CEO's office issued a formal notice.

Water Cloud Space announced a comprehensive salary adjustment.

The exciting moment was finally confirmed.

The beauticians were swiftly calling home to share the good news; this wasn't just a small salary increase.

They were all becoming high-income individuals in Capital City.

They could return home in glory and splendor.

Being able to earn five to six hundred thousand a year at such a young age, who wouldn't be the pride of their family?

Many rural parents were even bringing some old hens from home to visit Capital City to see this legendary good boss of theirs.

At this moment, Chen Pingsheng was already busy rapidly expanding Fei Yangyang.

With 150 million in hand, that was money that had to be spent quickly.

It was hard to raise salaries on this side because the net profit had already been controlled to below 5%.

He couldn't possibly dip into his own pocket to subsidize employees' wages; that wouldn't comply with the standards of being a boss.

There had already been a round of raises before, one could only say that the profits of traditional catering simply couldn't compare with high-end beauty services.

As for who was the most excited about the completed financing, it was undoubtedly Gao Hu.

The shares in his hands suddenly became worth an estimated fifty million.

If they could complete a Series C, it would be close to eighty million.

One could only say that with each level he ascended, he was making bonuses of several tens of millions.

He could hardly contain his joy.

This was not something he could compare with running a hot pot restaurant in Sha City.

In his own words, it was truly exhilarating!
