Even though he knew that his sister had a difficult start, Xia Ruzheng had no intention of giving her any more help. After all, whose start wasn't difficult and hard?
Because the goods that Xinhua Department Store gets from Wen Zhichao are very popular and sell out very quickly, they have been placing orders here since last year's summer clothes, and consume almost tens of thousands of items every year. In addition, other department stores have heard of Langzi and have started to come here to discuss business. Langzi's business is booming, and those who see it are envious and jealous. However, now they have also strengthened the management of employees and signed some unfair terms. Although the salary has increased, it is not so easy to leave.
As Langzi developed better and better, Wen Zhichao even came up with the idea of putting a label on his clothes, so that people would directly look for his label when buying clothes in the future.
Xia Ruzheng thought it was feasible, but some people would definitely not want their clothes to be labeled by others, so it would be best to discuss this matter with other customers.
After Wen Zhichao consulted with customers, he found that some department store customers were reluctant because they wanted to put their own labels on the clothes. Some customers agreed. When doing business, there are always some strange things. For example, someone will encounter such a situation: someone buys your clothes and brings them back after a few days, saying that the clothes are of poor quality and want to return them. The boss insists that his clothes are of good quality, but the clothes they bring back are indeed torn. The boss takes a look at the torn clothes and finds that they are not his clothes at all. Although the colors, patterns and styles are the same, they are just inferior products. Of course, the customers know it, but those who extort money are extortionists and deliberately want to make a big deal out of it. For the sake of the store's reputation, the boss has to swallow his anger and refund the money. If the labels are put on, it will be much better. At least it will not be so easy to cheat people by returning inferior goods as good ones.
Xia Ruzheng came up with the name "City Beauty" for Wen Zhichao. People these days are all about fashion, and thinking of Guangzhou as a metropolis, and me being a beauty in the city, wouldn't this dress be perfect? It really fits everyone's mood.
Wen Zhichao also thought the name was very good. Starting from summer clothes, all clothes began to be labeled as urban beauties.
Wen Zhichao waited for several years and finally the pen repair shop next door was transferred. It was said that the old man had unfortunately passed away and his son did not plan to continue running the shop, so he wanted to transfer the shop.
The old man who passed away was also from Guangzhou. He opened a pen and bicycle repair shop in front of his house. These days, pen and bicycle repair shops are still very popular. After all, these are precious items, and not everyone can buy a new one, so the old man has a good business.
Now that the owner has passed away, the transfer is understandable. Wen Zhichao took over the store. After obtaining the consent of the two owners, he opened a door on the middle wall to connect the two stores. He then replaced the small sign with a large one with neon lights. When the lights were turned on at night, it was very eye-catching and stood out on Mingshui Street.
Wen Zhichao also wanted to put a neon sign for Xia Ruzheng's store, but Xia Ruzheng disagreed. The restaurant's business was not so good at night. Except for those who danced outside or in the disco, everyone else went home early at night.
As the business grew, Wen Zhichao also began to look for ways to build good relationships with people within the system. Economic policies were being relaxed, but documents could not be specific about many situations, so things still had to be handled by people, and building good relationships with them became increasingly important.
Normally, it wouldn't be easy for an outsider like Wen Zhichao to establish connections with local officials, but he had Awang. Awang's family had connections, and while he wasn't particularly active, his connections were reliable. Through Awang's introduction, Wen Zhichao gradually established relationships. Of course, he didn't just give money or anything like that; he did simple things like sending clothes to the children, or some novelty mother-daughter outfits, or some food, or a toy like a schoolbag. These weren't big gifts, and at first, people paid. Gradually, the gifts increased, and their relationship grew closer. The children started calling Wen Zhichao "Uncle" and Xia Ruzheng "Auntie," eliminating all the formalities.
Wen Zhichao didn't think that anyone would give him a backdoor or anything like that. He just wanted it to be more convenient for him to handle procedures in the future so that he wouldn't be treated with contempt and glare.
In the summer, Wen Zhichao's brother finally called and said that he wanted to come over and join the company, and hoped that his brother would take care of him. Of course, Wen Zhichao would agree. He told the brother to come if he wanted to. Anyway, the factory was always short of people. It was not that it could not recruit people, but that it could not recruit people it trusted.
