Transmigrated to the 70s: Starting as a Textile Worker

Gu Chun, a graduate of a prestigious university and a designer at a top apparel company, died unexpectedly during a bus robbery. She transmigrated into the body of an 18-year-old girl, also named G...

Chapter 178 Song Yalin

State-owned factories are now beginning to experience a shortage of staff.

There are obviously quite a few employees, but many of them are passive and lazy and just eat and drink for free.

This leads to inefficiency of the entire factory.

It’s fine when we are prepared, but when we need to rush to work, it’s too late.

Gu Chun was helpless, "Director Li, please try to be faster."

"Don't worry, Boss Gu, we will do our best to speed up the work."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Chun started to think of a solution.

If the product is out of stock for too long, many people will not be able to buy it and some customers may be lost.

Finally she came up with an idea - pre-sale.

If you want that coat, you can pay a deposit. She promises that it will be delivered within 15 days and you can pay the balance then.

She also imitated the routines of later generations in using this mechanism.

She once hated buying pre-sale items because she might have to wait for half a month and end up buying a piece of junk.

The pre-sale mechanism actually helps merchants control inventory so that they don’t have too many goods in stock, and it also helps control costs.

She is in this situation now, and she has no choice.

Gu Chun also wondered if some people might not trust her and refuse to participate in the pre-sale.

After announcing this mechanism, Gu Chun felt unsure.

It wasn't until two days later that most of the customers who wanted the coats paid their deposits.

Several old customers said this:

"I've been buying clothes from you for two years, and every time there's a new style I come to try it on.

Sometimes I try things for a long time but don’t buy them, and you don’t treat me badly. I believe you’re not the type to cheat people out of their deposits.”

The wealthy older sister said, "The deposit is only five dollars, it's not worth anything. I know you have no choice, the clothes are so easy to sell."

"Oh, I really want that coat. I saw my neighbor wearing it, and it really sets off her. She looks so impressive."

"Me too, I like the red one. I tried it on my friend's and it made me look really good."

"I actually like the black one. It makes me look very imposing and can overpower those people below me."

“…”

Gu Chun was very touched that these old customers trusted her enough.

It is also because she has insisted on doing business with integrity in the past two years and never sells shoddy clothes.

You get what you pay for.

Those who come here to buy clothes are all financially well-off, and accordingly, she will provide the best service.

You can have a cup of coffee or tea when you enter the door, and sit on the soft sofa to rest.

You can take your time trying on clothes, and if you don’t like them, don’t buy them, but you should still be warm and welcoming.

Please leave your contact information as an old customer and we will call you to notify you when new models are released.

The promotional activities offered every year are genuine, and we never raise prices and then lower them.

If you need to make changes to the clothes you bought, you can also use a sewing machine to make them on the spot.

In short, she treats her clients with the utmost sincerity, and therefore, they trust her in return.

This made Gu Chun feel that his work was valuable.

Just like that, the coats arrived half a month later, and in less than two days, all the customers who participated in the pre-sale received the coats.

This batch of coats was sold out again in a short time.

Gu Chun did not plan to place any more orders. Firstly, Beicheng had only a few target customers, and almost all of them had already bought the products. Those who had not bought the products had already purchased other styles.

Secondly, the peak sales season for winter clothing is almost over. According to the processing speed of the clothing factory, it will take more than half a month to complete the products, which is too late to catch up.

This season's new models are basically sold out, and the Spring Festival is approaching.

Gu Chun invited all employees to a newly opened Tonglu Hotpot restaurant for dinner as part of an annual team-building event.

Employees of this era do not like team building like those in later generations.

They were very happy that Gu Chun invited them to dinner and praised the boss for being generous.

Don’t say it, they are not being falsely polite. In their minds, Gu Chun is indeed a very generous boss.

The basic salary is whatever it is, there are four days of paid vacation every month, and the commission is also what it is.

Among them, the worst salesperson is the newcomer Xiaoyi, but she can actually get a salary of more than 60 yuan this month!

She couldn't believe it when she got the money.

She used to work as a temporary worker in the red-raising class run by the factory to look after children.

Later, the former employee came back to give birth and she lost her job.

Seeing that Gu Chun was recruiting salesmen and that the requirements were that the candidates should be friendly and like children, she plucked up the courage to apply.

Unexpectedly, she actually got the job through interview.

She really likes children, and all the children who come to the children's clothing store to buy clothes like her very much.

She always makes the children happy. When the children are happy, their parents are willing to buy them some nice clothes.

Especially since the Chinese New Year is approaching, parents don’t care about it themselves, but they are willing to buy new clothes for their children to wear during the Chinese New Year.

It was her first month on the job, and she spent the first half month in training, so she didn't receive any commission.

In the next half month, I received commission and base salary of over 60 yuan.

She felt that the boss was really generous and would give her whatever he said and would not deduct anything from her salary.

Other employees also thought the same thing, and Gu Chun said she was just following the rules.

There is no order without rules. Now that the rules have been set, wages should be paid according to the agreement.

She already earns a lot of money, why should she withhold her employees' wages?

During this annual team-building meeting, Gu Chun will also announce the champion of this sales competition.

Among the employees of these three stores, the most senior ones are Bai Yueyue and Yu Meili.

Their commissions have always been among the top among the six people, and are on par with each other.

This time, the sales champion reward is actually more than just a bonus.

Gu Chun wants to find the most capable person from this competition and send him out to open a branch.

Unexpectedly, the first place this time was Bai Yueyue, and the second place was Song Yalin from the men's clothing store.

Song Yalin is also a talented person. He had poor academic performance when he was in school, and went to the countryside to become an educated youth after graduating from junior high school.

When the educated youth were able to return to the city, he would follow them back.

He has many brothers and sisters in his family, and he is one of the children neglected by his parents.

Naturally, he had no share in the work.

Later, when he went out to look for a job, Gu Chun felt that this person had good eloquence and a good personality when he interviewed him.

Song Yalin doesn't speak as roughly as some men, his tone and voice are very friendly.

He has a good figure and is about 1.8 meters tall. He has some muscles because he has been doing farm work in the countryside for a long time.

Now there is a tall and handsome guy.

This is the biggest reason why Gu Chun hired him.

Unexpectedly, his sales performance this quarter was almost catching up with Bai Yue and even surpassing Yu Meili.

Since that was the case, Gu Chun counted them in his mind, "The first place goes to Bai Yueyue, and this is a bonus of 100.

Second place winner Song Yalin, prize 50.

Everyone else gets 20.”

This is the year-end bonus that Gu Chun gave them, and everyone got one.
