Lin Yu didn't really know that Song Meili could paint.

All she knew was that Song Meili worked in propaganda at the factory and was quite good at writing articles; after all, she had gone to high school, and the level of high school students in that era was very high.

But she can also draw?

Song Meili smiled and said, "I used to draw blackboard newspapers in school, why don't I give it a try?"

Lin Yu nodded: "Okay, we'll discuss it later."

Lin Yu had some ideas, but she felt she didn't have the ability to draw them.

It would be even better if Song Meili could paint.

The meeting established the rules for making mooncakes, and several large ovens were built in the backyard specifically for baking mooncakes.

After two years of experience, the workers now have excellent control over the temperature of these ovens.

This time, in preparation for increasing production, Lin Yu arranged for Zhang Bing to organize people to build a few more ovens.

The development team adjusted the flavor of the mooncakes to better suit the tastes of the general public.

This time they will be making lotus seed paste and salted egg yolk mooncakes, fresh meat mooncakes, Yunnan ham mooncakes, and mixed nuts mooncakes.

Since some people don't eat five-nut mooncakes, the mooncake gift boxes are divided into two types: a six-pack without five-nut mooncakes, and an eight-pack with two of each flavor.

They also sell in bulk, which is cheaper than gift boxes.

The purchasing team was tasked with finding cardboard factories that produce boxes.

After the meeting, Lin Yu pulled Song Meili into the office.

Why didn't you tell me you could draw sooner?

Song Meili said shyly, "I'm not very good at it either. I've only drawn blackboard bulletins before. Look at how well you designed the store sign. I don't think I'm of any use."

At that time, Lin Yu was designing a signboard, and Song Meili also came up with a few designs.

But in the end, Lin Yu's idea was still the best.

She felt that drawing wasn't that important; having ideas was more important.

Lin Yu shook her head: "The signboard is just a small design, which I drew casually, but the gift box is different."

She told Song Meili, "If I want to make a name for our food factory, I have to make the gift boxes beautiful enough."

Song Meili could tell how seriously she took this matter: "I'll try my best."

Lin Yu patted her and said, "Don't be nervous, let's figure out a solution together."

She offered her idea: "I think the overall color scheme should be green, like the green mountains."

Song Meili nodded and wrote in her notebook: "Make sure to write our food factory's name on it, and draw a moon on it too?"

Song Meili tried drawing a picture on paper, and it can be seen that she does have some drawing skills.

He's a bit more professional than Lin Yu.

It just lacks creativity, which Lin Yu can make up for.

"Draw a few people eating mooncakes under the moon, and enlarge the mooncakes..."

Lin Yu recalled the gift boxes she had seen from later generations, which she could use as a reference.

Song Meili's eyes sparkled more and more as she listened, wishing she could draw everything she was saying.

However, the space on the gift box is limited, so we need to highlight the key points.

So in the end, she just wrote down those ideas, intending to select a few to draw, and then choose the best ones later.

Seeing that she already had an idea, Lin Yu said, "Then go and think about it, draw a few, and then we can discuss them together."

Song Meili was initially nervous, afraid that she would mess things up.

But upon hearing Lin Yu's words, he immediately felt relieved.

She wasn't fighting alone; she had so many colleagues, and everyone brainstormed together.

In the end, you will succeed.

Song Meili has great confidence in her food factory team; she firmly believes that everyone is a good partner who helps each other.

No one will laugh at her.

Song Meili took the notebook back, and returned not long after.

They're going to discuss the franchise store.

The store now has four employees, and Song Meili has brought them all on the right track.

Even when she's not around, the group is capable of running their own businesses.

Lin Yu is now going to choose a store manager from among them. This person will replace Song Meili and lead the remaining people.

All four of them came from the brigade, regardless of their distance or relationship with the team, now we'll only look at their abilities.

Based on Song Meili's observations over this period of time: "Dazhuang and Baogen are too honest and not very good at talking. These two are more suitable to be bodyguards."

To ensure the safety of the staff, the stores need to have male employees present.

These two were chosen by Lin Yu; they looked tall and strong.

However, their social skills are relatively weak, and they are always very formal and rigid when entertaining guests.

Not very good at serving customers.

Therefore, Song Meili often assigned them to the positions of sorting and warehousing.

They actually do this kind of physically demanding work very well.

So she eliminated these two first.

The remaining ones are Xiaoju and Xiaofang.

These two girls each have their own strengths.

Xiao Fang is young and has a cheerful and lively personality; she always greets guests with a smile.

Many customers in the store like her.

Xiaoju is two years older than Xiaofang, and she is more mature in her actions and speaks and does things in a very organized manner.

Moreover, she is more emotionally stable and doesn't like to be loud and boisterous.

Song Meili prefers to choose Xiaoju because she is mature and stable and can lead others.

Xiaofang is too outgoing and easily makes mistakes when she gets carried away.

Song Meili felt that she was more suited to be a salesperson.

Lin Yu had observed this for a while and it was the same: "Then let's settle on Xiao Ju, but we'll need you to go over and help us out again."

Song Meili naturally had no objections; she had overseen the opening of that specialty store.

Of course, she needs to hand over everything clearly and train the next store manager before she can completely extricate herself from the situation.
