Chapter 117 A Lifetime of Experience
Lin Chuxia came over warmly, "Brother Li, please come in. Why are you passing by here today?"
She took them to a quiet corner, wiped the table and chairs again, and then waved to Chen Chunhua to bring them food.
"Don't bother. I've already had my meal. I saw the store had just opened, so I came in to take a look."
After hearing what he said, Lin Chuxia asked Chen Chunhua to make a pot of tea.
The new store opened today, but she didn't tell anyone the news.
In daily life
There is no need to over-connect with too many people. You can know a lot of people, but it is best to keep them in a "semi-acquaintance" state.
The most comfortable relationship between people is to just know each other, appreciate each other, and keep a distance.
It was she who took the initiative to provoke Li Jian in the first place, and he is also an important person in her path forward. The more so, the more she should not overconsume their relationship.
Of course, it would be another story if he came on his own initiative.
Li Jian looked at the store and admired this woman from the bottom of his heart. "I really didn't expect that you would open another store like this so soon. I see that the store opposite the food factory has been robbed of business by you. You are really brave to compete with the food factory."
Lin Chuxia poured him a glass of water. "Brother Li, you are making fun of me again. I don't have that ability. I just happened to like this store, and it just happened to be close to the food factory store."
Li Jian took the water and smiled without saying anything. He just listened to what she said.
"I think the business is pretty good. There were so many people on the first day of opening. I think there will be no shortage of customers in the future."
"Then I'll take advantage of Brother Li's good words," Lin Chuxia said politely, "How is Brother Li doing recently? Is the vegetable station not busy now?"
It is early winter now, and there are no other vegetables in the fields except cabbage and radishes.
"It's OK. This year, the vegetable market has stored a large amount of winter cabbage. Next, we are waiting to ship these vegetables out before the Spring Festival. The sales have been good before. I hope I won't lose face this time. I admire you for doing things as soon as you say it. Unlike me, I don't think twice."
"My situation is different from Brother Li's. I have nothing in my store. Even if it fails, I will only lose some money. But Brother Li's is the hope of the entire vegetable market," and his own future.
Lin Chuxia didn't want to say the following words too directly, those who understand will understand.
"But Brother Li, don't worry too much. The market has just transformed, and everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones. Even if we fail, the sky will not fall. Compared with failure, we are more afraid of stagnation caused by retreat, right? Besides, even if we are wrong, it is also an experience. We are full with the last bite, but we are definitely not full because of the last bite."
Li Jian suddenly realized that even the big stone that had been weighing on his heart for days seemed to have been lifted away in an instant.
God knows how much psychological pressure it must have put on him after the vegetable station collected more than 100,000 kilograms of cabbage.
He picked up the teacup and clinked it with Lin Chuxia's. "I have to say you, sister. Sitting down and talking with you makes me feel relieved."
Lin Chuxia picked up the tea and drank it all in one gulp, "That's because Brother Li thinks highly of me."
Her mind and vision are nothing but her lifelong experience.
No matter what you do, if you are prepared for the possibility of failure, you might succeed. If you don’t do it with fear, then nothing will happen.
……………………
It was a busy day and even though a lot of preparations were made for opening today, the bun shop still closed early because all the buns were sold out.
Lin Chuxia gathered all the employees in the new store. Today the new store officially opened, and their shop was also officially divided into different parts.
Sun Lanlan is the manager of the main store of the steamed bun shop.
Although she was in charge of the head office before, she did not have the title of store manager.
The head office is staffed by: Aunt Sun, Cai Jun, and Sun Bingnan.
Qin Han was appointed as the manager of the new store, and the staff included Zhang Guilan, Qin Wu, Zhou Hongmei, and Chen Chunhua.
Su Wensong is in charge of the cooked food section, a position equivalent to that of a store manager, and his staff includes: Pang Yongli, Ma Yingzi, Jia Liang, and Hou Xiaobao.
Lin Chuxia is in charge of all stores and serves as general manager.
With these titles and formal assignments, their shop got on track.
Everyone applauded excitedly, especially the old employees who walked towards the store step by step, their smiling faces were full of hope.
Chen Chunhua and Ma Yingzi sat together, clapping and talking in a low voice, "Yingzi, why don't you let me go to your place? You introduced me here, and I thought I would go there to work with you."
Ma Yingzi was in high spirits after Lin Chuxia's speech, and replied nonchalantly, "Boss... Oh, no, I should say that the manager must have her reasons for making such an arrangement, and my job is dirty, not as easy as working in the bun shop."
"I am willing to work with you even if it's a bit dirty and tiring. Look at these people in the bun shop here. They are either the manager's brothers and sisters-in-law, or the brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law. I am an outsider. If I work here, I will be bullied to death."
Ma Yingzi finally looked at her and said disapprovingly, "Why do you think so? The manager and the Qin family get along well, so why would they bully an outsider like you? Just do your job well and don't think too much."
During this period, Ma Yingzi and Qin Han had a lot of contact, and they were both friendly and easy to talk to.
Chen Chunhua curled her lips and said nothing more.
The meeting was not long. Lin Chuxia assigned tasks to everyone, said some encouraging words, and then let everyone go home.
Only after Jia Liang, Hou Xiaobao and others had left did he come over.
"manager!"
The two of them followed Su Wensong for the whole day. They first went to the chicken farm to stock up, then went to the butcher shop, and then helped everyone in the yard to cook food.
Although it was busy, this day was very fulfilling and completely different from my previous days of strolling on the streets.
Su Wensong told them that their salary this month was 30 yuan, and once they were converted to regular employees next month, their salary would be 40 yuan. If they performed well, they would also receive bonuses, which was actually higher than the average worker's salary.
The self-employed business they went to before only gave them 25 yuan.
Otherwise you have to follow the right person.
Lin Chuxia saw that the two people's spirits were completely different from when they met in the morning, and she knew that they were quite satisfied with their current jobs.
"What's the matter?" she asked.
Hou Xiaobao said embarrassedly, "We are working in the courtyard today. I heard there is a staff dormitory there. I want to ask if I can stay there?"
He knew that brother and sister Sun Bingnan and Sun Lanlan were living there now, and that one dormitory room could accommodate a maximum of four people.
Lin Chuxia nodded in understanding.
Jia Liang mentioned in the morning that Hou Xiaobao was the youngest in the family. After his parents died early, his brothers drove him out of the house on the grounds that he was not a good student. They refused to acknowledge him as their brother and actually wanted to seize his share of the family property.
He didn't want to fall out with his brothers, and besides, it didn't matter where he lived alone. Over the years, he had been living with Jia Liang or other brothers day and night.
Now they have quit and have been following Jia Liang.
It would be inconvenient to always live in someone else's house. Lin Chuxia thought about it and said, "I'm afraid it's not a good idea to live there..."
