Mr. and Mrs. Guo were busy in the kitchen preparing dinner.
Some time ago, He Tiantian discovered that they were good cooks and had also taken over the housework, so she gave them a 50 yuan raise and put them in charge of cooking.
Mr. and Mrs. Guo were naturally happy to receive a raise.
In addition, there weren't many things to do with the Huo family, so they had relatively more freedom, which was much better than working in the hospital. They didn't have to work night shifts, and they could balance work and family. They really liked this job.
He Tiantian went over simply to check if there was enough food.
I was satisfied to see that they were well-matched.
Huo Yingjie talked with his maternal grandparents and uncle, while He Tiantian talked with her aunt and Jiang Wenwen.
Seeing that Huo Yingjie was truly alright, they were finally relieved.
Jiang Wenwen privately approached He Tiantian, took out an account book, and said, "Sister-in-law, this is the account book since the business opened. Take a look. If there are no problems, we will split the profits according to this ratio."
"Huh?" He Tiantian exclaimed in surprise, "Business is so good? I thought it would be good if we just didn't lose money this year, but I didn't expect we'd even get a share of the profits?"
Jiang Wenwen rolled her eyes and said with dissatisfaction, "Sister-in-law, you're showing me no confidence!"
"Hehe, not really. After all, doing business isn't easy, and your industry is different from ours," He Tiantian laughed. "Okay, I'll take it. I'll look at it when I have time. By the way, tell me, how much was our net profit this year?"
Jiang Wenwen smiled smugly and said, "Sister-in-law, guess! But I bet you'll never guess!"
He Tiantian smiled, thought for a moment, and said, "One hundred thousand?"
A net profit of 100,000 is already a lot.
He Tiantian owns 30% of the shares and can receive 30,000 yuan. This is only for half a year. Next year, she can probably receive even more.
"That's too little," Jiang Wenwen smiled. "Guess again!"
One hundred thousand is already a lot, far exceeding her expectations.
He Tiantian thought for a moment and said, "Two hundred thousand?"
"That's not right either."
He Tiantian held up three fingers and said, "Three hundred thousand?"
Are there really that many rich people?
Can a clothing studio earn 300,000 yuan?
Seeing that He Tiantian couldn't guess correctly, Jiang Wenwen grinned mischievously and said, "Sister Tiantian, the total is four hundred and eighty thousand..."
"Four hundred and eighty thousand?" He Tiantian exclaimed in surprise, "Just... just your studio?"
Jiang Wenwen nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, don't look down on me. My studio is doing very well! Of that, 300,000 is the studio's profit, and the remaining 180,000 is the share I give to the clothing factory that I authorized."
"My goodness!" He Tiantian exclaimed in surprise, "You've even partnered with a factory?"
"Yes, because a month or two after my clothes come out, they will imitate them, make pirated versions, and the clothes they make are very bad. Then they will come to me and want my design drawings."
He Tiantian thought for a moment and said, "Wenwen, have you ever thought about starting your own brand?"
“I have thought about it, but I don’t have the energy to deal with all of that right now,” Jiang Wenwen said. “Besides, building a factory is much more difficult than building a studio. I don’t have the energy, the manpower, or all the permits.”
“Yes, then you should settle down first,” He Tiantian said. “We’ll plan things out properly next year. By the way, you should recruit more sewing apprentices and train them as early as possible so that you’ll have manpower when you open a factory in the future.”
“Yes, so I plan to take out 300,000 yuan as dividends, and use the remaining 180,000 yuan to prepare fabric and recruit new employees,” Jiang Wenwen explained. “Sister-in-law, do you agree? If you have no objections, I will divide it like this.”
He Tiantian smiled and said, "No objection. We should keep investing to generate more profit. By the way, it's the end of the year, aren't you going to give your employees some benefits?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wenwen's eyes lit up, and she said, "Hehe, I'm planning to book a large private room at the Sanfengqiao Teahouse next door. It'll be big enough for our group of twenty-odd employees to have a get-together, sing some songs, share our thoughts, and have a year-end gathering. How does that sound?"
He Tiantian smiled and said, "Alright, since we're going to do it, let's make it a good event. You can buy some gifts and hold a lucky draw. For example, the first prize is a refrigerator; the second prize is a washing machine; the third prize is a rice cooker; and for those who don't win a prize, we can give them a Sanfengqiao gift box worth fifty yuan. Everyone can participate."
He Tiantian's words seemed to open up Jiang Wenwen's mind, giving her more ideas.
“Yes, yes, that’s a good idea. There seem to be precedents for this abroad, so we should do the same. These are all our long-time employees, the cornerstone of our development,” Jiang Wenwen said with a smile. “By the way, Sister Tian, how about this? We’re currently divided into four departments: sales, design, production, and finance/logistics. I’d like to select one outstanding employee from each department and give them a bonus.”
"Sure, you decide what to do. Xiaoyan and I will go." He Tiantian smiled. "But what are the judging criteria for this Excellence Award?"
Jiang Wenwen smiled and said, "From the beginning, I established some policies. For example, in the production department, whoever makes the most clothes and has the fewest defective products is the best employee; for sales receptionists, whoever sells the most clothes and earns the most profit is the best employee, and so on..."
"Yes, that's good." He Tiantian nodded. "You have authority in the studio and can keep things under control."
"I've got it." Jiang Wenwen was excited. After returning home, she made a plan and discussed it with the staff in her studio.
After dinner, the old master and matriarch of the Jiang family told Huo Yingjie to get some rest, and then took their family home.
It was cold outside, so Huo Yingjie asked Zhang Ning to drive his maternal grandparents away.
After everything calmed down, He Tiantian told Huo Yingjie about the clothing studio, which really surprised Huo Yingjie.
"No wonder they say women's money is easy to earn, it's really true," Huo Yingjie laughed. "It makes me want to research some cosmetic formulas and start making money."
“Cosmetics can make money, but we don’t have enough manpower, so let’s forget about it,” He Tiantian said. “It’s good to have more money, but it’s not good to work yourself to the bone just to make money.”
“Yes,” Huo Yingjie said. “But if possible, you could collaborate with Wang Ying. She’s a doctor, a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine. If she quits medicine, she could easily manage a cosmetics company!”
Huo Yingjie never forgot about this.
Zhou Yuanchao and he could become very wealthy working at the research institute, but they wouldn't become rich.
If you want to get rich, the only way is through corruption. But you can't do that, or you'll ruin your reputation.
He couldn't let his own family be rolling in money while his good brother's family was struggling to make ends meet.
He Tiantian thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "If you can come up with the formula and Wang Ying is willing to go into business, I can mentor her, but I'm afraid she won't."
