Chapter 220 Advanced Salesperson Election

Su Xiaoxiao: “Oh.”

As a newcomer, it was not her turn no matter how she thought about it. Su Xiaoxiao had never had much interest in things that had little to do with her.

Zhang Yulan didn't expect her to have such a neutral reaction, and couldn't help but say, "There's a prize to be won in the selection."

Hearing about the bonus, Su Xiaoxiao became slightly interested: "How much?"

Zhang Yulan held up five fingers mysteriously.

Su Xiaoxiao: "Fifty?"

Zhang Yulan shook her head: "Five dollars."

Su Xiaoxiao: “…”

The managers of their department store are too stingy. She would be better off selling more things if she had that time.

"The money isn't much, but the main thing is the honor. When the time comes, the winning salesperson will be awarded by Director Song from our city's general supply department. What a great honor it is."

People in this era have a strong sense of honor, but unfortunately Su Xiaoxiao is not from this era and has different ideas from them.

It’s better to pay more money than to get those empty things.

"I tell you, as long as you perform well, even a new salesperson has a chance to be selected."

Zhang Yulan was very excited. "I must perform well. If I am selected, it will bring honor to our family."

Because of the selection, all the sales assistants were so active and enthusiastic, as if they were injected with chicken blood.

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh that people of this generation are still simple-minded.

After a while, Zhang Yulan poked her and said, "Xiaoxiao, I have something I want you to ask for help, okay?"

"Sister Zhang, we're all family, why are you being so distant? As long as I can help, I will definitely help."

Zhang Yulan was a little embarrassed. "There's a girl from the countryside in your brother-in-law's family who wants to come to the city to find a job. Can you ask if the cafeteria is short of anyone? She's definitely hardworking and capable."

The canteen business has been booming recently, and even some leading cadres eat in the canteen.

For a while, Liu Cuilan and Xu Zhaodi were really overwhelmed.

During every holiday, the two younger brothers were drafted to help out and they complained bitterly.

Although it was just lunch, the two of them were indeed very busy.

Liu Cuilan and Xu Zhaodi are definitely unwilling to hire more people, after all, one more person means less profit.

But Su Xiaoxiao saw that the two of them had only been working for a few days and they looked visibly haggard, and she really couldn't bear it.

She immediately agreed: "Okay, no problem, I'll ask when I get home tonight, but Sister Zhang, you can't tell anyone else about this."

Last time, a large group of salespeople wanted to ask her for help, but she refused them all. Now if people knew that she only helped Sister Zhang, it would be hard to justify.

Zhang Yulan nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, I'm not that kind of person."

The two have a good relationship, and Su Xiaoxiao is happy to help, not to mention that Zhang Yulan has never been a talkative person.

As she was speaking, a customer came in and Zhang Yulan hurried back to her counter.

At this time, a man who looked to be about 30 years old came over. He walked to Su Xiaoxiao's counter and said, "Comrade, I want to ask, do you have any shampoo that can treat hair loss?"

Su Xiaoxiao suggested enthusiastically: "Uncle, go to the cosmetics counter over there and ask."

When the man heard the word "uncle", his face immediately turned green: "What uncle? I'm only 22 years old this year."

Su Xiaoxiao: “…”

This brother is so anxious, isn't he? He looks almost as old as his mother.

The eldest brother left quickly with a depressed look on his face, but after a while he left with a depressed face again. It seemed that he did not buy the shampoo.

Su Xiaoxiao was a little puzzled. She remembered that the anti-hair loss shampoo sold to the city detergent factory was very popular as soon as it was released. Could it be that their department store didn't stock it?

During the lunch break, she pulled Zhang Yulan aside to ask about the situation.

"Are you talking about that anti-hair loss shampoo developed by the city's No. 1 Detergent Factory that's been all the rage lately?"

"Yes, this shampoo is so popular, why is it out of stock in our department store?"

Before Zhang Yulan could speak, Qin Shuang, who was eating with a lunch box beside her, spoke first: "Not only our department store is out of stock, but all department stores in the city are out of stock right now."

Su Xiaoxiao was curious: "What's going on?"

"What else could be going on? Sales are booming, demand exceeds supply across the country, and the First Detergent Factory is practically becoming the leading company in the detergent industry."

"Since sales are so good, why don't you hire more people?"

"Recruiting people? Many other factories have already started research and development. Once this thing is developed, it will no longer be so popular. What will happen to the workers we recruited then?"

Zhang Yulan interrupted.

"I have a relative who works there. He said they have to work overtime every day and many people can't stand it anymore."

Su Xiaoxiao seemed to be lost in thought. She had been thinking about going to the city's No. 1 detergent factory to solicit sponsorship these days, so she might as well stop by to take a look at the situation.

She has a plan but she doesn't know if it will work.

After the three of them finished their meal, they walked back with their things and saw a tall figure standing in the shadow of the tree at the entrance of the department store from a distance.

The man looked up when he heard the noise, and his eyes, which were lighter than those of ordinary people, were particularly conspicuous.

His originally long hair was shaved into a buzz cut, and his fair skin became much darker. I don’t know if it was because of the darker skin color, but his facial features seemed to look more profound.

"Comrade Su!"

Seeing her from afar, Song Weidong waved and greeted her with a look of surprise.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't expect to see him, and nodded at him with a smile on her face.

Zhang Yulan teased, "Xiaoxiao, is this your boyfriend? He's so handsome."

Qin Shuang cleared her throat: "Xiaoxiao, why didn't you tell us you were dating? Are we still best friends?"

Su Xiaoxiao was overwhelmed. She and Song Weidong were just classmates, and look at the looks in their eyes.

She hurriedly opened her mouth to explain, but before she could say anything, Song Weidong came up to her with his long legs.

The two of them looked at her with a sly smile on their faces, which we all understood, and then ran away hand in hand.

Su Xiaoxiao: “…”

Let's listen to her explanation first.

Song Weidong glanced at her and a faint blush appeared on his face.

After a brief silence, he stuffed an exquisitely wrapped box into her palm: "Comrade Su, this is a gift I brought you. Open it and see if you like it?"

"Look, why are you still so polite..."

Unable to refuse the kind offer, Su Xiaoxiao opened the box while speaking, and inside was a silver watch reflecting bright light.

She was stunned for a second, then quickly put the watch back: "Comrade Song, this is too valuable, I can't accept it."

I thought she was bringing some local specialties or something, she couldn't accept such a valuable thing.

Song Weidong refused to accept it: "What is given to you is yours. It is not something valuable."

Isn’t a watch that costs more than a hundred dollars a valuable item?

Su Xiaoxiao was thinking of finding an excuse to return it when Song Weidong put the thing in her hand and ran away.

"Comrade Su, I have something else to do today. See you tomorrow."

He was tall and had long legs, and he disappeared in a moment.

There was no way, Su Xiaoxiao could only put the watch away first.

I walked back to the department store with my watch, and as soon as I reached the grocery counter, I met two pairs of gossipy eyes.
