But the leader didn't have a strange look, and walked in front of Xiao Chen: "Xiao Chen, I took a look at the planning plan you wrote yesterday, and it was done very well. There are still some details in it, which need to be connected with customers. I'm a little busy at this time, I'll give you the customer's WeChat later, you can connect with him directly."

Xiao Chen was a little puzzled, so he went to the leader to ask about it. After hearing Xiao Chen's question, the leader smiled and said, "This is what you deserve. Your ability is very strong. A while ago, I asked you to bring me meals, and I asked you to hand over customers, all because I wanted to see you. How is your patience, can you handle these trivial things well. Now that you are doing very well, this salary increase is considered your breakfast money. "
After hearing these words, Xiao Chen realized that the leader was testing himself before. Now that he has received a salary increase, Xiao Chen is also very happy. He expressed his gratitude to the leaders, and feels more motivated to take up work tasks.
