"That's all? Are you sure there's nothing else? There's no paperwork for such a large paging station, not even the invoices for the equipment in the office?"

Lu An looked at the things on the desk, which could only be counted on one hand, and asked in surprise.

Facing Lu An's questioning, Deng Weichen was also very embarrassed, but he could only bite the bullet and answer: "That's really all. To be honest with you, when Boss Shen first set up the paging station, he didn't go through any other procedures except pulling the line from the telecommunications bureau."

"There are indeed no invoices for the equipment outside. I heard that Boss Shen got them second-hand through his friends."

Deng Weichen felt more and more embarrassed the more he spoke. Suddenly, he felt confident when he saw the account book: "But our accounts are very detailed. They include not only the network access fees and service fees for the past few months, but also the rent of the paging station and employee expenses, etc."

Lu An slapped his forehead speechlessly.

Although I was mentally prepared and knew that Boss Shen must have set up a black paging station with incomplete procedures, I never expected it to be so "black" like this.

Not only were there no formal procedures, but even the equipment was second-hand goods that were bought from who knows where.

As for the company seal, this black paging station does not have any corporate business. Whether it is laying lines or anything else, it is all in the name of a private person, so it does not even have a company seal.

Besides, it’s impossible to even get a formal official seal for their name “Jianghuai Telecom Paging Station”.

"It's obvious that this leader is from a state-owned enterprise. In fact, I wasn't used to it when I first came here. Here, you can start work with just a word from the boss. There are no entry procedures and no need for any information or files. But then I thought about it and we didn't even know whether his paging station was legal or not, so why would there be so many fuss? Just give me a job and that's enough," said Deng Weichen.

Lu An actually understood this point. These days even the company law is not perfect, and most private enterprises are start-up teams operating in a gray area. You really can't ask for too much.

However, after Deng Weichen's introduction, Lu An began to understand the purpose of Boss Shen setting up this black paging station. He might be planning to run away at any time.

Lu An made a decision quickly: "Okay, I'll check the accounts first. As long as the accounts are fine, I'll answer the paging call."

The accounts of the paging station are very simple, with only the income and expenditure of the past few months. You have to know that Lu An is a graduate of accounting. Although he spent twenty years in Jianye Bureau with Wei Dezheng in his previous life, it is still quite simple to check such basic accounts.

It took Lu An only half an hour to complete the check and find that there was no problem with the accounts.

"Okay, there's no problem with the bill. I'll take over the paging station." Lu An said.

Deng Weichen finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "The paging station can finally survive!"

Deng Weichen then looked at Lu An and asked, since he had taken over the paging station, could the agreed unpaid wages be repaid?

Lu An nodded: "Okay, the money is here, you make the payroll and I can pay it anytime."

But then Lu An changed the subject: "But besides this, we still have a lot of work to do. The first one is to set up a formal company and register the paging station under the name of the new company."

Lu An then took out a pair of documents and handed them to Deng Weichen: "These are 268 network access materials. Prepare 268 BB machine cards and then record the BB machine cards and each person's correspondence."

Deng Weichen happily took the materials and said, "Great! You are indeed a great leader, you are really capable. What about the network access fee and service fee?"

kindness?

Lu An raised his eyelids and said in a dissatisfied tone: "What network access fee and service fee? I have taken over this paging station. I am the boss. Do you still want to settle the network access fee and service fee with me? Then does it mean that if the network access fee and service fee are settled, I don't have to pay you wages anymore?"

Deng Weichen shook his head repeatedly to explain that this was not the case, but it was difficult to record it this way.

Lu An knocked on the table: "Do you think your current accounts are very clear?"

Lu An then added: "And it is also for the sake of accounting. After all, we are about to formalize and the paging station will be registered under the name of the new company. I just want to get these people online before the new company is registered. Otherwise, do you want to pay the network access tax for 268 more people?"

"Of course, if you feel it's inappropriate, that's fine. The tax will be deducted from your salary!"

Deng Weichen panicked immediately. He repeatedly explained that this was not what he meant: "I don't really need the money, it's just that the paging station can't afford the cost of the BB card!"

Deng Weichen explained to Lu An that it would cost 50 yuan to buy a BB card from the post office.

Lu An then remembered that the BB card is actually a kind of chip. Before the introduction of the photolithography production line in China, all chips were basically priced sky-high. It was not until after the millennium, when China cracked the relevant photolithography technology, that the price was reduced to less than ten yuan.

This is the era!

But even though he understood, Lu An still frowned: "Could it be that this huge paging station doesn't have a single pager card? Do we have to go to the post office to buy them all?"

After Lu An asked this question, Deng Weichen dared not neglect it and immediately searched through all the boxes and cabinets. Unexpectedly, he actually found 158 blank cards in a drawer.

Deng Weichen then remembered that Boss Shen had once helped his friend get a batch of cards, but he ran away before he could deal with them.

Boss Shen fled in a hurry and only had time to take the money in the account. He was also afraid that Deng Weichen and the employees of the paging station would ask him for his salary, so he did not have time to come back to take the cards.

Lu An slammed the table vigorously: "That's right, our boss Shen did leave something valuable!"

"Use these 158 cards first. I'll give you another 110 yuan. Go to the post office and apply for BB machine cards. The rest can be used as salary supplements for the employees."

Lu An emphasized: "But how much each person has sent must be recorded!"

Deng Weichen began to think that 110 yuan was too little. You know, 5500 pager cards alone would cost yuan, which means they only had yuan left to pay salaries?

"Leader, isn't this money a little less? You are the leader, so you may not know that when applying for a card at the post and telecommunications bureau, in addition to the most basic processing fee, you have to give a little tribute, otherwise the card is not easy to get!" Deng Weichen said tactfully.

"Manager Deng, I understand what you said, but it will cost me money to set up a company here, and it won't save you any money than going to the post office, so I have to get my business done first."

Lu An continued, "Well, Manager Deng, you should hurry up and apply for the card. The most important thing is to get the card first. No matter how much it costs, you can pay the rest to your salary first. The rest will be paid to you once the company is established and the paging station is officially registered under the company's name!"

Deng Weichen finally nodded: "This is the only way!"
