Zhou Hongyu didn't intend to take the opportunity to swindle Chen Zhaodi's money, but if Chen Zhaodi wanted to work for her, she had to collect the deposit. Otherwise, one day when she wasn't paying attention, her goods might be swindled out of Chen Zhaodi by the Chen family who came after hearing the news.
Conversely, if she took one month's salary from Chen Zhaodi as a deposit, Chen Zhaodi would be protected more closely than her own eyes.
She didn't even need a month's salary; she could achieve the same effect by charging Chen Zhaodi five yuan.
After all, Chen Zhaodi loved money more than anything; losing even a penny would be her life.
"Let's go to the warehouse first, get a clear understanding of the clothing styles, and then make further plans."
Chen Zhaodi rode her bicycle to the warehouse with Zhou Hongyu. The person who had previously received Chen Zhaodi looked at Zhou Hongyu, who seemed like the boss behind the scenes, and gave her cold looks frequently.
Those wicked capitalists really know how to take advantage of honest people!
After leaving the warehouse, Zhou Hongyu squinted at Chen Zhaodi and asked, "Have you been talking badly about me lately?"
Otherwise, why would the warehouse staff have such a strong opinion of her after only meeting her for the first time?
Chen Zhaodi covered her mouth in surprise. Could Zhou Hongyu read minds? She had indeed complained about Zhou Hongyu to her friends yesterday!
Zhou Hongyu: "Hehe!"
Chen Zhaodi hurriedly explained, "Then you can scold me all you want, as long as you don't deduct any money from my pay when we split the profits!"
...
Zhou Hongyu was speechless for a moment. No matter what topic she talked about, it would eventually come up with money.
Zhou Hongyu shook her off and walked out: "Do you know a driver? The clothes in these warehouses won't be able to be moved using the same method as last time!"
"Driver? I only know the old man who transports rice in our alley!"
"..."
Alright, there's no need for Chen Zhaodi to interfere with things that require thinking!
After thinking for a while, Zhou Hongyu made a general plan for what to do next.
“The clothes in these warehouses are dozens of times more than the goods we originally bought from the garment factory. The warehouse staff said that there are still half a month left before the lease expires. If we can't clear more than half of the inventory in this time, the renewal fee will be a huge sum! So I've decided that we must take at least two weeks off to work on this!”
"As for the location, my first choice is the plot of land in front of my cousin's dried goods store. Of course, this time it will take longer to settle. After you get home, go to the convenience store and get the remaining leg of lamb. Immediately go to my cousin's house and rent the place, so that no one can take it away and delay things!"
Chen Zhaodi had objections; she wanted to follow the arrangements, but unfortunately, the workshop director, He, who lacked any sense of morality, wouldn't allow it!
“Zhou Hongyu, please listen to me for a moment. I agree with all your arrangements, but our workshop director He has been going against me lately. I got a scolding just for asking for a short leave today. If I ask for two weeks' leave, I'm afraid I'll be fired!”
useless!
Even a factory veteran of decades could be intimidated by a workshop director who wasn't very capable.
If this happened to Zhou Hongyu, let alone being scolded for her attitude, she would skin the man surnamed He alive if she was even slightly provoked.
The guy surnamed He only dares to bully simpletons like Chen Zhaodi!
Zhou Hongyu rolled her eyes at her: "What are you afraid of? If you need to take leave, just ask for leave. If she doesn't agree, slap her a few times to wake her up. Be firm and show your true abilities. This isn't some small private company outside. She's the boss's wife who pays your salary! She's a parasite in the factory!"
If Zhou Hongyu worked as hard as Chen Zhaodi, and created so much value for the factory over the decades, she would have every right to walk around with impunity!
Chen Zhaodi scratched her head: "Isn't this a bad idea..."
She had never been so arrogant and domineering. Even when she was doing the dirtiest and most tiring work in the workshop, she was still the most honest and upright person.
I will follow the leader's instructions.
Director He was outrageous, but in Chen Zhaodi's mind, the title of "director" was enough to inspire awe in her.
Zhou Hongyu, however, felt that if she followed her, she should learn from her arrogant attitude towards life.
Zhou Hongyu patted Chen Zhaodi on the shoulder: "Do you think it's wrong to do this just because she's the workshop director?"
Chen Zhaodi nodded.
Zhou Hongyu sneered: "Your workshop director He got her position through back channels. She didn't get it based on her own abilities, so she doesn't deserve any respect. As for you, you put in eight parts effort and ten parts hard work. I don't think anyone in your workshop has more merit than you. You should shut her up after being bullied by that He! Anyway, you don't plan to get promoted, so why be afraid of her!"
This is something that state-owned enterprises and private enterprises cannot compare to; otherwise, why would anyone call a worker's job an "iron rice bowl"?
Working in the workshop is the worst job in the factory, and Chen Zhaodi is more capable than three people. Replacing her with this nuclear-powered donkey would be a huge loss. What can Director He do if he gets really angry and goes crazy?
All she could do was get so angry she went crazy!
After listening, Chen Zhaodi felt that it made some sense, but she was still skeptical: "I'll give it a try!"
I don't know what it feels like to be angry at someone.
You'll have the chance to try it soon.
P.S. Director He: Zhou Hongyu! You devil! You opened Pandora's box for her! Give me back my hardworking, devoted ox!
After discussing the arrangements, it was time to talk about the issue of dividing the money, which was of utmost concern to both of them.
Chen Zhaodi nervously held up one finger: "How about I take 10%..."
She didn't give anything in return, but she shamelessly begged Zhou Hongyu to help her get rich, offering to share 10% of the profits with her. Chen Zhaodi felt incredibly guilty.
As expected, Zhou Hongyu flatly refused: "Don't even think about it, do you want one percent or not!"
Chen Zhaodi shrank her neck and shook her head: "One percent is better than nothing, hahaha..."
Overall, putting aside all other miscellaneous issues, based on their previous collaboration, Zhou Hongyu felt that Chen Zhaodi was indeed a good partner who could save her a lot of effort.
Based on this premise, Zhou Hongyu was willing to give Chen Zhaodi a larger share.
"Let's calculate it as commission. The more you work, the more you earn. For example, if a piece of clothing has a profit of 15 yuan, and you can sell 100 pieces, that's 5%, which is 75 yuan. If you're even better and sell 1,000 pieces, that's 8%, which is 1,200 yuan. After that, it'll increase by 1% for every 1,000 pieces sold. What do you think of that?"
At this moment, Chen Zhaodi was thinking about what "more work, more pay" really meant.
It sounds like it could make a lot of money!
So why did she do the dirtiest and most tiring work in the workshop, doing the work of three people, yet her salary wasn't much higher than her colleagues'?
A gleam flashed in Chen Zhaodi's eyes, as if a new world had opened up for her: "It's decided then!"
What do you mean by 5% for 100 items, or 75 yuan? All she cares about is 1200 yuan!
