"Isn't this a way of avoiding labor?" Shirasaki Haruka couldn't help but ask.
Although today is the weekend, it is normal for Miyako Hoshino not to come to work.
But with so many children working hard, Hoshino Miyako was hiding at home, which Shirasaki Haruka felt was a bit too much.
"That's not true, Aunt Haruka, Sister Miyako also works very hard." Senju Nanjia couldn't help but say.
"Nanjia?" Shirasaki Haruka couldn't help but look at Senju Nanjia, "You said that's not the case, so did Miyako do any work?"
"The Y-shaped marks on the ground were all drawn by Sister Miyako!" said Senju Nanjia.
Shirasaki Haruka blinked slightly. It might not take much time to make one Y-shaped mark, but with so many flowers, it would take a lot of effort to draw three Y-shaped marks on each one.
"Originally, we were only required to draw one Y-shaped mark on each plant, but Sister Miyako increased it to three. I saw Sister Miyako in the flower field late last night." said Senju Nanjia.
"Sister Miyako is working so hard?" Shirosaki Hana couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but blink slightly when he heard this. Why did it sound so unreal that Hoshino Miyako was still working in the flower fields in the middle of the night?
However, the scene where Miyako Hoshino peeks at the children resting in the welfare home in the middle of the night does have a certain sense of reality.
"Then may I ask, where does Miyako live now? Isn't she living in an orphanage?" asked Shirasaki Haruka.
"As for Miyako, she lives in a house near my home. Do you need me to take you there?" said Matsuno Naku.
"That would be great if you could," Shirasaki Haruka said with a smile.
"Well, the afternoon work is almost done anyway, so there's no problem in going there." Matsuno Naku said.
"You guys go first, I still want to talk to Dean Yamashita about something." Yushan Kazuto suddenly said.
Several people blinked slightly, but nodded. Shirasaki Hana and Shirasaki Haruka were already very busy, so they naturally had no time to wait for Yushan Kazuto in the welfare home.
"Then let's do this. After you finish talking to the dean, drive to Glass's house by yourself. When you get there, give me a call and I'll come and pick you up." Matsuno Naku said.
The Matsuno family and the Nishimiya family are not far apart, and the house that Hoshino Miyako rents is near the Matsuno family. In fact, the three families live relatively close to each other.
Yushan Kazuto nodded, thinking that Matsuno Naku's proposal was quite reasonable.
Senju Nanjia followed Shirasaki Haruka and the others and left. When they reached the gate, she looked at Hayama Kazuto with some reluctance.
Looking at the little expression of Senju Nanjia, Yushan Kazuto could only smile, waved to Senju Nanjia and the others, and then quickly walked towards Yamashita Sachiko's office.
……
"Dong dong".
"Come in." Yamashita Sachiko's voice came from the office.
"Dean Yamashita, I'm here to bother you again." Yushan Kazuto walked into the office and said with a smile.
"Welcome, welcome. It would be better if you, Mr. Yushan, come more often to disturb me like this." Yamashita Sachiko said with a smile.
Chapter 1591 Suggestions for Expanding Manpower
"Is Dean Yamashita sorting out the harvest?" Looking at the thick stack of receipts placed in front of Yamashita Sachiko, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but laugh.
"The cultivation contract was completed quite well before, but if we want to discuss the harvest, it depends on the payment efficiency of the flower and grass company."
Sachiko Yamashita seemed to be in a good mood. Although she was a little overwhelmed by the work at the welfare home recently, she was happy from the bottom of her heart to see the welfare home getting better step by step.
"I don't seem to have seen the new driver who came to the welfare home today." After looking around, Yushan Heren spoke.
"She went to deliver the goods. A batch of flowers had already been shipped away." Sachiko Yamashita said.
Yushan Heren nodded. He originally thought that the other party didn't come, but it turned out that he had gone to deliver the goods.
"The children seemed to be very happy with their work today." Yushan Heren blinked slightly and changed the subject.
"Originally I wanted to hire someone to do the work, but the kids disagreed and insisted on doing it themselves."
Sachiko Yamashita smiled, with a hint of pride in her smile.
Given the current economic level of the Minami-Senju Children's Welfare Home, it is naturally no problem to hire people to complete these tasks, but the children are still willing to work and contribute to the welfare home, which naturally makes Sachiko Yamashita proud.
"What about during school hours? Are the children just as happy?" asked Yushan Kazuto.
Yamashita Sachiko blinked slightly, glanced at Yushan Kazuto, thought for a few seconds, and then said: "No, when we were in school, only a few children were happy."
"Dean Yamashita's answer is really honest." Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but smile.
"I'm just telling the truth." Sachiko Yamashita said.
"Some children are not keeping up with their studies. After the midterm exam on Friday, several children cried."
All schools under the Sakura Education Group have the same time for midterm exams. Fengzhiqi’s exams were not finished until Friday, so the children also took the exams on Friday.
Although Naku Matsuno and Sachiko Yamashita tried their best to help the children with their studies at the welfare home, there was still a certain distance between them and attending school.
No matter how hard Matsuno Naku and Yamashita Sachiko try, it is difficult for them to be all-encompassing in teaching. After all, the children are not all in the same grade, and neither of them comes from the education industry.
This also resulted in some children having difficulty keeping up with the teaching progress, but it was not directly evident at the beginning.
However, after experiencing midterm exams recently, it is normal for some children to be unhappy.
"What if we don't focus on grades and just talk about how the children are treated in school?" asked Kazuto Yushan.
"That's still good. At least I haven't heard of any children being bullied," said Sachiko Yamashita.
Yushan Kazuto breathed a sigh of relief. The schools that the Toumori family found for the children were indeed good. He confirmed this again.
"If it's just a matter of study, it's best to provide some guidance so that the children don't develop a dislike for studying." Yushan Heren said.
Sachiko Yamashita was stunned. She had overlooked this point.
She has been very busy recently and Sachiko Yamashita has no time to pay attention to her children's academic performance.
But as Yushan Kazuto said, nowadays when children do not perform well in midterm exams, it is easy for them to develop self-doubt or aversion to studying if they are not effectively guided.
Such a situation may not be very obvious in the early stages, but once it is revealed, it may be too late.
"Thank you, Mr. Yushan, I will talk to those children today." Sachiko Yamashita said very seriously.
"Um...there's no need for honorifics." Hearing the honorifics coming out of Yamashita Sachiko's mouth, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
"If you hadn't reminded me, I might have overlooked this. Your reminder may have saved the future of several children. I must show my respect." Sachiko Yamashita said very seriously.
Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but blink slightly. Strictly speaking, there was nothing wrong with what Yamashita Sachiko said, but Yushan Kazuto felt that Yamashita Sachiko's serious look was a bit awkward.
"Okay, let's talk about this for now. I have a few more questions I want to ask Dean Yamashita." Yushan Heren said.
Yamashita Sachiko nodded: "Please go ahead."
Seeing Yamashita Sachiko's serious look, Yuyama Kazuto couldn't help but blink slightly and said, "Before coming to the welfare home, I went to the Nishimiya family and heard that Shoko's sister Yuzuru has already gone to participate in photography training. Did you give her the place, Director Yamashita?"
Sachiko Yamashita nodded and admitted it directly.
"The flower and plant company should have given more than one spot to Dean Yamashita, right?" Yushan Heren said.
"Will it be useful for Mr. Yushan to get a quota?" asked Sachiko Yamashita.
"No, I just want to ask, Dean Yamashita, how you plan to allocate these places." Yushan Heren said.
"I don't have any ideas for now. All the staff at the welfare home are busy right now," said Sachiko Yamashita.
"In my opinion, Dean Yamashita, you should consider expanding your staff." Yushan Kazuto smiled.
Yamashita Sachiko blinked slightly and couldn't help but say, "There are only a dozen children in the welfare home, and there are four people here now, which is enough."
According to the configuration of general welfare institutions, it is already very good to have two people to take care of a dozen children.
There are already four people living in the Children's Welfare Home. In Yamashita Sachiko's opinion, the staff is enough anyway.
"But now the welfare home is no longer just a welfare home. Just for the flower cultivation, we need to devote several people to it." Yushan Heren said.
"I heard from Nanjia that she saw Hoshino Miyako working in the flower fields late last night. In my opinion, if economic conditions permit, it is very necessary for the welfare home to expand its staff."
Only then did Sachiko Yamashita realize that she was still used to looking at the problem from the perspective of the director of the welfare home, but she had overlooked the fact that the Minami-Senju Children's Welfare Home had now developed other businesses.
"Once the money for this batch of flowers arrives, the welfare home will indeed have sufficient funds." Sachiko Yamashita couldn't help but blink slightly.
"So I say that recruiting can be put on the agenda. It's best not to waste the quota given by the flower company. They are quite good at professional training." Yushan Herendao.
"I understand, Mr. Yushan."
Sachiko Yamashita was still a little hesitant. After all, the welfare home had only recruited two new people this year. Wouldn't it be too hasty to expand the staff further?
Yushan Kazuto also noticed the hesitation in Yamashita Sachiko's eyes. He did not continue speaking, but just looked out the window silently.
Chapter 1592 Waiting for Ebina
"Okay, Dean Yamashita, I have things to do this afternoon, so let's stop here for now."
Kazuto Yushan stood up and prepared to leave. Sachiko Yamashita hurriedly stood up and sent Kazuto Yushan to the door.
"I hope you can consider my previous proposal carefully, Dean Yamashita."
Leaving behind a word, Yushan and others walked quickly to the door. The truck parked at the gate had already left, and instead, there were a few children riding bicycles and playing at the door.
"Be careful!" Yushan Heren said.
"Yes!"
The children nodded and responded.
Not far away, a woman who looked about the same age as Yamashita Sachiko turned her head and glanced at Yushan Kazuto.
She had been standing nearby, watching over the children. It seemed that the sound of Yushan Kazuto greeting the children just now attracted her attention.
Although he had never met her before, Yushan Kazuto could guess her identity. If nothing unexpected happened, she was the driver hired by Yamashita Sachiko.
The two sides smiled at each other and then went back to doing their own things.
Although there are many wrinkles on her face, she still has a certain temperament.
Yushan Heren blinked slightly, walked to the car and started it.
After honking the horn, the children around immediately made way for him. Yushan Kazuto stepped on the accelerator and suddenly remembered something. He took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Ebina Nana before driving away.
Watching Yushan and his men driving away, the children couldn't help but wave their hands and then continued riding their bikes.
"Be careful, don't ride too fast!"
……
In the room, Nana Ebina had been sitting next to the kotatsu for a long time.
After lunch, Ebina Nana sat here, waiting for information from Hayama Kazuto.
The table top of the kotatsu is very clean, with only a mobile phone. As long as there is any movement on the phone, Nana Ebina will immediately pick up the phone to check.
It's just that this kind of waiting is a bit painful, and it's just disappointment repeated again and again.
Sitting next to the kotatsu, Nana Ebina looked a little worried. She was a little worried that Kazuto Hayama had forgotten to send her a message, just like he had forgotten the agreed dinner party before.
The cell phone on the table suddenly vibrated, and Ebina Nana picked it up at lightning speed, but it was a payment reminder text message from NHK.
Although the NHK toll collectors don't come to my door often after a few visits, such toll text messages are still sent every now and then, and often several messages are sent continuously.
Sometimes, Ebina Caicai thought about just paying the bill directly. Although it was a bit of a waste of money, it would give her a lot of peace and quiet.
However, the NHK charges in Tokyo are still not as aggressive as those in her hometown. In Akita, the hometown of Nana Ebina, the NHK payment rate can reach .
This does not mean that NHK is very popular in Akita. Most people just pay the fee just to have some peace and quiet because they are tired of it.
Putting down the phone, Nana Ebina couldn't help but sigh. According to her experience, she would probably receive several more messages in the next few minutes.
Sure enough, the moment Ebina Nana put down her phone, it vibrated again.
Although she knew that the vibration was most likely a premium text message from NHK, Nana Ebina still picked up the phone instantly as if it was a conditioned reflex.
"Xiaohua will be back to Tama in the afternoon, so we can finally keep our appointment tonight."
Looking at the message sent by Yushan Kazuto, Ebina Nana suddenly became excited, and even the annoyance she had just felt when she saw the NHK premium text message was swept away.
"Then I'll book a restaurant now." Ebina Nana replied quickly.
After the message was sent, Kazuto Yuyama did not reply. Nana Ebina also knew that Kazuto Yuyama was probably busy with something at the moment.
The nearby restaurants have been reviewed by Ebina Nancai several times. Although she has not been there, she has read most of the reviews of the popular restaurants.
She had already decided on the restaurant to book a few days ago, and now that she had received a positive response from Yushan Kazuto, she immediately booked the restaurant.
After parking the car in front of Nishimiya's house, Nishimiya Kei had already returned to the house. Yushan Kazuto took out his mobile phone and looked at the joyful message from Ebina Nana, and couldn't help but blink slightly.
