Although Mary thinks that Zhao Changqing said this because he is inferior to the Chinese people, but other people in the manor don't think so.Therefore, it is not surprising that Gewei, who was encouraged by the third lady Sipper, stood in front of Zhao Changqing.

Zhao Changqing originally thought that he could only go to those church schools to recruit some female teachers or women who had experience as tutors to act as female secretaries. He never expected that there would be a maid to apply for the job!

In fact, Ge Wei was also beating drums in her heart.

Although she has received correspondence courses from the secretary, can write and count, and even secretly bought a typewriter for practice, but she really has no confidence at all.

Standing in front of Zhao Changqing now is also because he was inspired by Sipper.

Looking at Ge Wei who was standing in front of him with a flushed face and was so nervous that she couldn't help twisting the ruffles on her dress, Zhao Changqing said, "So, you are here to apply for a secretary assistant, right?"

"Secretary Assistant?"

Obviously, Gewei just wants to be a professional woman right now, but she doesn't have a very clear idea about her career plan.

Zhao Changqing said: "Yes. There are four levels in my secretarial group, and the first level is naturally a special assistant. I don't plan to recruit people for this position at the moment, but I plan to put it in the future. After everyone is familiar with it, I will start from Choose one person from the secretarial team. The second class is the secretary, the third class is the secretary assistant, and the fourth class is the secretary assistant trainee."

"Secretary assistant trainee?"

"Yes. This is specially prepared for newcomers in the workplace. The main job is to deal with paperwork. It is required to be able to write and calculate, to type, and to make basic reports."

"Basic report?"

Hearing the few words in the basic report, Gewei felt guilty.She has no idea what a basic report is.She would have thought that she was doomed to lose this opportunity.

Until Zhao Changqing asked her: "Can you type?"

"Yes, I will."

Zhao Changqing said, "It seems that I have to borrow the typewriter from the Earl. I don't think you would mind conducting an on-site assessment?"

Ge Wei immediately said: "I have a typewriter. I secretly saved money to buy it myself."

"Okay. Could you please bring that machine?"

"When, of course."

Gewei rushed out quickly, and Mrs. Hughes who happened to be passing by gave her a very surprised look.Unfortunately, she only saw the back.Because Gewei had already gone to the other side of the corridor to talk with Sipper, Mrs. Hughes thought about it, and decided to go in and ask Zhao Changqing in the study.

Zhao Changqing had also been in Downton Abbey for several days, and before that, he had always looked like a gentleman.However, as the housekeeper of Downton Abbey, Mrs. Hughes has the responsibility to protect every maid in the manor.

"Excuse me, is there something wrong with Gewei?"

"It didn't happen this time." Zhao Changqing said with a smile, "Gewei is here to apply for the job. Mrs. Hughes, Gewei is your subordinate. What kind of person do you think she is?"

"Gewei?"

Mrs. Hughes immediately understood that every word she said was related to Gewei's future.As a housekeeper, Mrs. Hughes loves her profession and Downton Abbey.Even though she doesn't understand Gewei's choice, she still respects Gewei's choice.

"Among the maids in the manor, Gewei's ability is second only to Anna, the foreman. She is a warm and serious girl. But, before today, I never thought that she would want to be a professional woman. "

Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "I understand. For most women, being a secretary is a big challenge. I just don't know what Miss Gewei has planned for her career."

Many maids either chose not to marry, remained in the service of a household, and then became housekeepers.Some maids chose to save a sum of money and then go back to marry.In this era, there are really very few maids who choose to become a professional woman.

Soon, the servant William helped Gewei move the typewriter into the study and put it on a small table, and then, except for Mrs. Hughes, everyone else retreated.

What Zhao Changqing wanted to assess was Gewei's typing ability.

As long as the speed is fast enough and the accuracy rate is high, Ge Wei can achieve this job.

It has to be said that Gewei worked very hard, so she passed the assessment very smoothly.It's just that the treatment Zhao Changqing gave her was too generous in her opinion, which made her wonder if she was dreaming.

During tea time, all the servants and maids in Downton Abbey knew that Ge Wei had passed the interview.

"So, you won't be here next month?"

Ge Wei said excitedly: "Mr. Zhao said, I have a month to complete the delivery of the work here. At the beginning of next month, I will go to Mr. Matthew Crowley, and he will take me to Mr. Zhao's residence .”

Thomas pointed to the paper in Gewei's hand, and said, "So, what about this?"

Ge Wei said: "This is my job requirement and salary."

Thomas said, "How about the salary?"

"Very good." Ge Wei smiled all over her face, "The probationary period is one year, and the salary is the same as I am now. After one year, I will become a regular secretary assistant trainee, and the salary is twice that of the probationary period. If you get the accountant professional qualification certificate He was promoted to a secretary assistant. Starting from a secretary assistant, his career began to be refined. One was to go to the direction of finance and accountant, and the final career peak was the chief financial officer; In addition, Mr. Zhao will purchase annuities for his employees who have worked for three years until they retire at the age of 55."

Annuity is an early form of pension, which was very popular in France during the July Dynasty 100 years ago.

Even Orion, the Countess' dowry maid, said sourly:

"It's really a very favorable condition."

Thomas said, "So, what about the accommodation?"

Ge Wei said: "Just like those tutors, I can live with Mr. Zhao. Mr. Zhao will arrange a room for me in the mansion. Of course, not the attic. If I want to rent a house outside, I just need to make a report. Sir will also provide housing allowance!"

"What a generous gentleman. I hope he won't ask you to be his mistress."

"Orion!"

"In the United States, there are many such things. What I said is just the truth."

Ge Wei said: "It doesn't matter. I believe that Mr. Zhao is not that kind of person. Moreover, Mr. Zhao also said that his secretarial team needs five to six people, and I don't know if the future colleagues will get along well."

For the future, Gewei is full of expectations.
