Su Nan, the most popular beauty blogger on the entire network, transmigrated into a period novel, becoming the female cannon fodder who snatched the male lead from the female lead. Su Nan declared ...
For the location of the new store, Su Nan chose a location near the Shanghai Film Studio, which was only across the street from the main entrance and only a few steps away.
The house is a one-story bungalow with four rooms. It was originally a dormitory for the film studio's staff. Later, because a new dormitory building was built, the staff moved out and the place became idle.
Assistant Huang knew that Su Nan was looking for a suitable new store, so he recommended this place to her.
After visiting the site, Su Nan rented the house without much hesitation. The employees of the film studio were all wealthy people with salaries, and their ability to accept new things was much stronger than that of ordinary people.
Moreover, there is no shortage of customers for clothes and cosmetics here.
Normally, film studios ask their staff to dress as fashionably as possible, because they might be short of people during filming and would randomly pick up staff to act as extras.
So girls would wear little skirts, put on some powder and lipstick, and boys would wear Mao suits, Western suits, and use hairspray.
After working in such an environment for a long time, people will naturally become more concerned about appearance and develop a "comparative mentality", fearing that they will be laughed at if they dress uglier than others today.
The house is a rectangular structure running east-west, with a height of about four meters. Because it was built a long time ago, the walls and roof are a bit dilapidated, and when it rains, the interior becomes a river.
But the whole is still relatively intact, just a little repair will be fine.
Su Nan hired someone to connect all the rooms, patch up the holes in the roof and walls, and paint them with new colors. This time she chose white and blue as the main colors to create a Mediterranean style.
The furniture and furnishings in the room are added with elements of waves and shells, and the clothes hangers are all in natural wood color.
Entering the store from the left main door, what comes into view is the clothing, shoes and hats area, which is clean and tidy. Every piece of clothing is very beautiful and full of design sense, which is simply dazzling.
Going further ahead is the cosmetics area, where mirrors and trial bags are installed in front of each product for customers to try on.
Then there is the free makeup area. The floor here is raised, making it the highest place in the store and also the most eye-catching place. Once people take a look at it, they will want to try it, which naturally increases the purchase rate.
The door on the right is the payment area. Next to the cash register is a large round table with dozens of small bags on it, piled up into a small hill. They contain gifts for customers for the opening of the new store.
When you make a purchase, you will receive a beautiful sample set and a set of shells.
The new renovation alone took almost two months, and now recruiting staff was on the agenda again. However, the staff for the first store could be hired as part-time students from the nearby Shanghai University, but what about this store?
Her primary requirement for recruiting employees is that they must be decent-looking and have decent looks. The second requirement is that they must be between 18 and 30 years old, like to be clean, have a certain understanding of clothing matching, be literate, have a strong learning ability, and be eloquent.
This is a basic requirement for the sales industry in later generations, but it may not be possible to find the right person now.
First of all, people in this age group have either just graduated from high school and are planning to enter a factory or take an examination for civil service, or have already started working or gone to the countryside.
Although the private industry is developing in full swing now, the iron rice bowl is still in the hearts of many people. Most people will not easily give up such an opportunity and run an unstable store job.
Even though Su Nan's salary was twice theirs, not many people were willing to apply for the job in the past two days.
Previously, we hired college students and worked in shifts, so many people were willing to apply for part-time jobs to earn a living. But now this place is too far away from the previous place, and it is a big problem to get the transfer staff to come and help.
Su Nan really didn't expect that she would fail here. Now everything is ready, she is just waiting for the staff to come to the field. There is no way she will give up and let all her efforts of these days go to waste.
Su Nan and Feng Meng sat behind the cashier counter of the new store, supporting their heads with their hands and staring listlessly at the main entrance on the right, hoping that someone would come for an interview.
The recruitment advertisement had been posted for three days, and the people who came were either middle-aged women in their 40s or 50s, or weird society ladies who couldn't even speak Mandarin, leaving the two of them speechless.
Don’t these people understand the recruitment information?
At this moment, a little head suddenly popped out from the store entrance. When he saw Su Nan, his eyes lit up and he rushed forward and said happily, "Wow, it's really you. I'm your fan."
Suddenly someone grabbed his hand, and Su Nan subconsciously pulled it free, saying shamefully, "You, you."
The girl was fair and clean, with two pigtails hanging in front of her chest. She was lively and smart, a pretty lady, but the look in her eyes when she looked at Su Nan was too passionate.
㳎In the words of later generations, could this person be Su Nan’s “crazy fan”?
"Sister Su Nan, I came here after seeing the recruitment advertisement posted at the door. It said that you would interview in person. I thought it was fake and never expected that you would actually be here."
The little girl stared at Su Nan without blinking, as if the person would disappear if she blinked.
Su Nan sat up straight, smiled, and asked tentatively: "Are you here for an interview?"
As soon as the words fell, the girl nodded quickly, coughed lightly, and began to introduce herself: "My name is Tian Xiaonuan, I am nineteen years old, and I think I meet all the requirements written in the recruitment advertisement."
"I just graduated from high school this year, but I didn't get into college, so I've been unemployed at home ever since."
Hearing this, Su Nan and Feng Meng looked at each other and nodded at the same time. Indeed, Tian Xiaonuan met all the conditions.
Just when they were about to ask her to bring over the relevant identity information and certificates, Tian Xiaonuan suddenly asked, "Sister Su Nan, will you stay here forever?"
There was anticipation in his eyes and tone as he looked at Su Nan eagerly.
"No, Sister Nan Nan has other work to do, so she can't stay in this store all the time. But if she is free, she will come over to take a look." Feng Meng answered Su Nan Nan's question for her.
"Ah?" Tian Xiaonuan's expression visibly fell, and she let out a lost breath, muttering in a low voice: "I thought I could see you every day."
"If you are applying for the job just to work with Sister Nan Nan, then I advise you to think it over carefully," Feng Meng reminded.
"I'm giving you a small gift. Thank you for your love for me." Su Nan stood up, picked up a small bag from the large round table beside him, and handed it to Tian Xiaonuan.
The latter was flattered and took the small bag with both hands. He looked at Su Nan with emotion, then nodded vigorously as if he had made up his mind and said, "I have decided. If you are willing to accept me, I will work hard and help Sister Su Nan make more money."
Su Nan couldn't help laughing at Tian Xiaonuan's cuteness, patted her on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "If you work hard, you can not only make money for me, but also make a lot of money for yourself."
"That's right. Not only is the salary in our store high, the commission is also high." Feng Meng also covered her lips and smiled.
"What is commission?" Tian Xiaonuan looked at Su Nan in confusion, then at Feng Meng.
