Chapter 520: So Excited
When Lin Xia returned home, she met Wu Sijie, who asked in a strange manner, "You weren't home during this period?"
The last time she looked for Lin Xia, she wanted to ask her how to make red date cake, but someone was away at the time and it was inconvenient. She wanted to change the time, but she didn't expect to never see anyone.
Every time he went to ask if she was home, Lin Xia was not at home. He thought she came at the wrong time. Until one day he couldn't bear it anymore and went to her house during dinner time. Only then did he learn from Lu Yuxiu that Lin Xia went to Beijing.
Lin Xia smiled, invited her into the house to sit down, and poured her some fruit tea. The dry winter weather was suitable for drinking some fruit tea to moisten the throat.
Wu Sijie happened to see her coming back, and when she turned her eyes, she saw the suitcase by the wall. She felt better when she knew that the other party was not deliberately avoiding her.
"This is Jingshi's snack, for the children." Before coming back, I bought a lot of Jingshi's old brand pastries. This thing is suitable for giving as a gift.
Wu Sijie looked at the exquisitely packaged gift box and was secretly surprised. This box was not cheap, and yet it was given to her like this.
I suddenly became curious about Lin Xia, and I didn't know what her job was.
But the other party looked exhausted and had luggage, which showed that he had just got off the train. It was not appropriate to disturb him any further. After agreeing to ask for advice, Wu Sijie left.
He turned around and went to someone he knew well, hoping to find out some gossip about Lin Xia.
Lin Xia didn't try to keep her when she left. She had just returned from Guangcheng where she had stayed for a few days. She wasn't very tired, but she didn't want to deal with such an insignificant person.
A few days later, Wu Sijie came to visit. Her attitude towards Lin Xia changed again and again, and her words became much more intimate.
But Lin Xia was still the same. He could teach her how to cook, but it was impossible to have a closer relationship with her.
The other party might have also sensed her attitude, and her enthusiastic attitude cooled a little. After all, she was the wife of the chief of staff, and she had a high status. It would not be good to be warm to her and then face her coldly.
Lin Xia was relieved by the other party's cold attitude and returned to the previous relationship of nodding and greeting.
Time flies and it is already the end of the year. In the past six months, Lin Xia has been running back and forth between the company and home. After all, they are close and convenient to take a boat, so she is not tired from running back and forth.
During the past six months, An An did not go out to film dramas, but only performed in dramas at school.
Lin Xia no longer has to worry about her two children's studies, and the company is gradually growing and developing. At this time, work is not a place for people to slack off. Everyone hopes to shine in their own positions.
Lin Xia was also generous and gave them ample rights and space, allowing them to fully develop their abilities and get the rewards they wanted.
Of course, the company also has a punishment system for them. General work mistakes can be forgiven, but if a mistake of principle is made, it will never be forgiven.
But the welfare benefits of their company have always been much higher than those outside, and may even be higher than the salary of the director of a state-owned factory.
Take the sales clerks in the most basic direct-operated stores as an example. They not only receive a basic salary, but also business commission bonuses and various sales incentives. In other words, as long as you are not just slacking off, the salary you get will definitely be satisfactory.
Even every time the company recruits, there will be a lot of competitors. All of them come to apply because they have heard that the salary and benefits here are good and the company atmosphere is relaxed.
So many people have been poached, but no one is interested. After all, how could the salary offered be higher than here?
With everyone in the company united, the cosmetics company is getting better and better. Although the brand is not available nationwide, there are counters in shopping malls in some important cities.
Lin Xia only opened exclusive direct-operated stores in Beijing and Shanghai, and most of the stores in other places are franchisees.
Since they are so successful, of course there will be followers. However, as long as they compete fairly, Lin Xia will not interfere.
It may seem good that they are the only one in the market, but it is not conducive to future development. Lin Xia hopes that a hundred flowers can bloom in this industry.
But as the disadvantages gradually became apparent, the other party followed their example and started to join the franchise system.
Lin Xia has looked at the other party's franchising method, and the profit is so low that there is almost no profit. If it is still possible to make a profit, then there must be something wrong with the cost of raw materials for the other party's products.
Lin Xia originally felt a little bit of a sense of crisis about them, but after trying their products, she was not worried at all.
The other party may have seen the popularity of this industry, but has nothing to offer.
However, due to the other party's advantage of lower product prices and franchise fees, it still caused some impact on them.
During this period, several franchisees who had just signed the contract requested to breach the contract because the contract was just signed, the store had not been opened, and everything had not yet begun.
The other party acted as if they would cause a scene at the company if the company didn't give up, which made the other client who came to discuss cooperation hesitate.
Lin Xia immediately said that the signed contract could be canceled, but there would be no chance of cooperation again in the future, which was to say, they were blocked.
Some people hesitated, but some people were very determined, not knowing whether the other party had promised them any benefits.
As a result of this determination, three companies actually withdrew from cooperation, and there was no news from those who had the intention to cooperate.
For a while, the franchise department's business was a little bleak.
But Lin Xia was not panicked at all. Not only that, he asked everyone to redraft the franchise conditions for next year. Just as Lin Xia once said, not only did the franchise fee double, but the cooperation requirements also increased a lot.
Although everyone had doubts, they did what Lin Xia said.
There were also franchisees who had been cooperating for more than half a year and didn't know where the news came from. They called to ask what was going on, but the franchise department did as Lin Xia said and announced that the franchise fee would double.
Suddenly, the franchisees were speechless. The other party was so confident, and they actually made money. They called only because they were worried that they would suffer losses.
Compared to cosmetics companies, food factories are much more stable. Sales of various canned foods have been very stable, but there are still peak seasons and off-seasons. The peak season is during the Chinese New Year and other festivals.
Hot sauce is now the food factory's flagship product. Of course, there is not only spicy meat sauce, but also different versions, with or without meat, or pickled mustard tuber version.
This thing is delicious when used to cook rice or noodles, so it is very popular.
Lin Xia calculated the time and waited for An An to arrive in Guangcheng, and then the mother and daughter returned home together.
There is no difference in the New Year’s Eve dinner every year. Even though the children have been eating it for so many years, they still enjoy it very much.
Lu Yuxiu still couldn't keep watch with them, and had to stay in the barracks and celebrate the New Year with the soldiers.
But they are not lonely at home, because the Spring Festival Gala programs at this time are still classics, and both the skits and the intermissions are very exciting.
When seeing the advertisement in the middle, An An suddenly exclaimed: "Mom, this is not our house..."
Lin Xia had seen it a long time ago. She was excited but did not show it on her face. She just nodded and agreed.
The children's exclamations were like seeing a familiar face on TV, and the surprise wore off.
But at this moment, many people seemed to realize something. They were no less excited than Lin Xia, but not as calm as her.
