Chapter 208 Talking about Business



The villagers gathered around the notice on the wall and started discussing it lively.

"Is the factory hiring again?"

"I know about textile workers, but what does this salesperson do?"

"Could it be that they're like the salespeople in the supply and marketing cooperative, standing behind the counter and selling things?"

“Who would come to our village to buy clothes?”

"Why do you care so much about him? Just because you can get the money doesn't mean it's okay?"

"Isn't ten dollars too little?"

"Didn't you see she said the profit would be divided according to the number of clothes sold? The more you sell, the more you'll get. That would be much more than the 27 yuan salary!"

Despite all the talk, everyone's enthusiasm for applying for the job remains undiminished.

How many cents do you earn by getting up early and going to the county town to sell vegetables?

It’s good to earn ten yuan a month, but it depends on the price of vegetables and the harvest.

This factory is right next to my home and pays me. Only a fool would not be willing to work there.

Basically, only female textile workers are hired, but sales clerks can be of either gender.

As long as the weavers have good hands and feet and don't slack off at work, everything else will be fine.

A salesperson must be literate. It is not acceptable if he is not good at speaking or has poor health.

Wu Muxiang felt that if the salesperson had to follow her around, he or she should at least be able to withstand the fatigue.

When she wrote this position, she tried hard to think about what the person who sells things should be called. After thinking for a long time, she could only think of the salesperson in the store.

Salesperson, selling goods, Wu Muxiang felt that this was a good fit for the position.

So she wrote the three big words "salesperson" on it.

There are quite a few people applying for the job. Although the salary is only 10 yuan, 10 yuan is still money, and everyone is not a fool.

There is a commission from selling clothes.

Wu Muxiang fell in love with a girl from the village named He Shuiping.

He Shuiping is the eldest in the family and had to take care of her younger siblings when she was young.

When the village decided to provide a primary school, her parents sent her there with the mentality that if it was a good deal, they would take advantage of it.

Every morning before going out and every night after returning home, He Shuiping has to work, and she also has to take her younger brother to school during the day, which means she has no energy to study.

Unfortunately, she failed to get into junior high school.

However, failing to get into junior high school was the norm at that time, so no one thought it was a big deal if she didn't pass.

Just in time to go home and help with housework.

He Shuiping is now 17 years old, and her parents are already discussing marrying her off.

I don't care about the amount of dowry, no dowry is fine, as long as I marry her off, there will be one less person to feed at home.

He Shuiping didn't want to get married so early. She had seen a cousin get married early and died of complications during childbirth before she was 18.

So she came to apply for the job. As long as she had a job, her parents wouldn't want her to get married.

What satisfied her most was that the final salary of this job was uncertain, which meant that apart from the 10 yuan, her parents had no idea how much money she earned.

This way she can save some money for herself.

He Shuiping is not an honest child. If she had worked hard, she would have become a workhorse long ago.

After years of fighting wits and courage with her family, she has mastered the art of slacking off and talking, and is very good at fooling her parents.

Wu Muxiang talked to her for a few words and became more and more satisfied. With this girl's mouth, she could even trick people into buying stones as if they were gold.

So, He Shuiping followed Wu Muxiang and worked as a salesperson.

The next day, Wu Muxiang took her to the county town.

When they arrived at the entrance of the department store, Wu Muxiang said, "Go walk around and see where it's suitable to set up a stall."

"Don't worry, Aunt Wu, I'll come here to find you after I finish watching it!"

"right."

He Shuiping had just taken office and wanted to show her abilities, so she went there very actively.

Wu Muxiang entered the department store and saw the salesperson from yesterday at a glance. The salesperson smiled at her.

Wu Muxiang walked over, and the salesperson said, "The manager hasn't come yet. What's your name, sister?"

Wu Muxiang: "My name is Wu Muxiang. I heard that your store's general manager got a promotion?"

The salesperson was a little surprised: "You know all this? My name is Li Lan, you can just call me Xiao Li."

She thought about it for a moment and realized that Wu Muxiang probably heard her gossiping yesterday.

She felt a little embarrassed when she thought that she was laughing at others behind their backs.

But the awkwardness soon dissipated.

Wu Muxiang stuffed another apple into her mouth and asked quietly, "Who decides whether your manager can get a promotion?"

Li Lan laughed and said, "Who else could it be? The promoted general manager. It's just a matter of a word for him to promote someone."

Wu Muxiang gossiped, "If your manager wants to get promoted, doesn't he have to please the general manager?"

Li Lan: "Of course, but the general manager prefers the deputy general manager, and his relationship with the manager isn't that good. So our manager is worried."

As she spoke, she laughed out loud: "Don't you see that they are not in the store every day? They are busy trying to please their superiors!"

It's like this. You go to work every day, but no one can see your dedication. But if you make your boss happy, the boss will think you are a good person.

Suddenly, Li Lan closed her mouth and winked at Wu Muxiang.

She put on a smile and called out, "Manager Zhang."

The manager passed by Wu Muxiang, glanced at Li Lan, nodded, and said with a smile: "Xiao Li, you come to work so early? You are quite active at work, you deserve praise."

Wu Muxiang smiled and said, "Hello, Manager Zhang. My name is Wu Muxiang."

The manager looked at her with some confusion: "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Then he turned around and took a few steps forward: "Come into my office and talk."
