Midnight Life Museum
The clerk was actually a little confused when facing this group of people in formal attire, but he felt in his heart that he should treat them properly.
However, she had only been working here for a short time, and the on-the-job training did not explain how to deal with this kind of situation.
The news that appeared out of nowhere last night caused a big stir on the Internet. After arriving at the store, everyone had many questions in their minds and had no enthusiasm at work.
As a worker, I don't have time to take care of too many things. In addition, my superiors have not issued any important instructions to us since we entered the store in the morning. If I handle it on my own, I might make mistakes.
But if you encounter this kind of situation, it’s definitely okay to go to the store manager first.
The lifestyle center is somewhat different from ordinary stores. The store manager is not often in the store. The manager is indeed responsible for the daily work of the store, but most of the notifications are made online. The work group will receive news about the day's affairs every morning.
I heard from my colleagues that the manager said that there are a lot of trivial matters to manage, and he can only barely spare time once a week to go to the store to attend the weekly meeting of all store employees.
As for the remaining working days, we were busy running between the headquarters and the various factory warehouses.
When I saw him, he always came and went in a hurry, and he really looked like a busy man.
After the news exposing the inside story came out, even though today was not the weekly meeting day, the store manager came over, which was a rare occurrence.
At first, everyone was secretly wondering if this was to resolve the scandal from last night.
But after the manager arrived at the store, he stayed in front of the computer at the cash register early in the morning. He just retrieved the files and checked the transaction flow for the past month. Instead, he seemed not to care about the negative news.
This makes people wonder whether there are people who want to attract some attention from the society, and the content they publish is actually just false information.
The clerk had been dealing with all kinds of customers for a long time, so her mood no longer showed easily on her face. She smiled and said, "Well, could you please wait here for a moment while I notify our manager?"
"No problem, let's just stroll around."
"Okay, please go ahead." The clerk politely gestured and turned away.
The people from the Consumer Association watched at the door for a while, and then noticed the new T-shirt display area where Ding Can and his group were.
The person standing in the front row was the leader of the investigation team. He had a handsome appearance, and because he wore glasses, he had a scholarly air about him. He looked very elegant, and his tone was low and pleasant to listen to, but there was also a certain severity in his voice brought by his profession.
"Is this the batch of goods with fabric problems mentioned in yesterday's post?"
"It depends on the release date." A girl with a bun next to him carefully read the price tag, then randomly picked up a piece of clothing from the shelf and put it to her nose. "But, team leader, there's no noticeable pungent smell on the clothes. It's possible that they've been treated later."
"In addition to the products listed in the post, we will also conduct sampling and verification according to the regulations for the rest to check whether there are the same quality risks."
The team leader took out a tablet from his briefcase and clicked on the corresponding file. The table had already recorded the product names that appeared in the post, which was prepared before the trip.
This morning, as soon as I arrived at the bureau, my superiors issued an important task. Since it is a brand with a great influence in the city's commodity market, it has attracted the attention of citizens. There are many voices on the Internet hoping that the authorities can issue a statement in a timely manner.
In order to strengthen the trust of the masses, an investigation team should be set up as soon as possible, and timely and efficient methods should be used to conduct investigations and collect evidence, and a reply should be given in the shortest time possible.
After receiving instructions, the department urgently refined and integrated the content of the post, and then set off to the store for an on-site inspection.
Time was running out and there was no time to waste. The team leader scanned and recorded the product number on the price tag next to the name of the T-shirt. After a simple mark, he asked his subordinates to put the clothes directly into the shopping cart.
After entering the information of this product, he looked around to find other products.
The clothes that were picked up were right in front of Shi Yan. She looked up and saw the little girl's expression as she carefully examined them. She felt relieved a little: "As long as they take the clothes over for sampling and inspection, and the results come out, we will succeed."
"I hope so." Looking at the clerk and store manager walking down the aisle from afar, Xia Jialian did not feel relaxed as if something was about to be resolved.
Because it seems to be developing in the direction that everyone hopes for.
As online public opinion ferments, it is normal for people from relevant departments to go to the store to investigate.
Since it is a common behavior, anyone with a little thinking ability can predict it in advance. However, the store has foreseen it but did nothing, which is strange in itself.
There are only two ways to treat someone when being investigated.
Only stores with no problems will allow others to inspect them with an open attitude.
But obviously this attitude does not apply to the lifestyle museum. The inside information they hear from the clothing factory and the experiences of the products themselves are not false.
It is an indisputable fact that the Life Museum itself has problems. Faced with highly pointed news, we should not panic, but we should be on high alert and quickly think of ways to deal with it.
When faced with an impending investigation, there are many viable options.
The more aggressive ones can directly recall large quantities of products from the store overnight, saying that there were omissions in the quality inspection process.
If you want to turn the situation around, you should just find a reason to close the store and prevent all kinds of products from being exposed to the public.
However, the store did not choose any of these methods and continued to operate as usual without any unnecessary measures.
It would be fine if they just left the door wide open to let customers in, but now even people from the Consumer Association are here. It's really hard to figure out what's going on.
Shi Yan tutted her words, vaguely understanding something: "You mean, they're in cahoots and just here for show?"
Xia Jialian slowed down his voice: "These are all speculations. There is no way to confirm them at the moment."
"I don't think that's necessarily the case," Ding Can said, with a different perspective. "It's hard for unscrupulous businesses to reach out to the Consumer Association. They wouldn't take such a big risk. If there's really something they can do..."
"Perhaps there was a problem somewhere between the time the goods were transported and the time they were inspected."
In short, if we fail to successfully find out the forces behind the Living Museum this time, it will be a complete waste of time and it will become difficult to continue with the original plan.
The store manager came up to me respectfully at this time. He was holding the bill for this month that he had just checked on the computer and looked very busy.
Putting the folder under his arm, he stretched out both hands to shake hands: "Are you the leader from the Consumers Association? I'm Wang Yi, the manager of our store. You can just call me Xiao Wang. What's your name?"
"My last name is Li, and I'm the head of the investigation team." The team leader also extended his hand and shook it briefly, then quickly pulled his hand away as if to avoid suspicion.
The manager had a kind smile on his face, and there was no sign of unnaturalness because of his behavior. Facing the staff of the Consumer Association, his expression and tone of voice were very calm.
"Hello, Team Leader Li. We've all seen the news, and it's completely nonsense. It's hard to convince people with just words, though. If you need anything, I, along with the other employees in the store, will do our best to cooperate."
After Wang Yi finished speaking, he called over a few nearby shop assistants and asked them to stay behind the investigation team and provide whatever they needed immediately.
Team Leader Li's expression softened. "It would be great if you could understand our job. We need to take the merchandise from the store back to the relevant departments for testing."
"Of course no problem." Wang Yi agreed directly.
The team leader continued, "Also, until the results come out, your store will be closed. It can only be reopened if the product quality inspection is confirmed to be fine."
"If you have any questions or suggestions about our handling of the matter, you can express your store's views through the complaint hotline."
Wang Yi nodded. "We have no objection. This is what we, as taxpayers, should cooperate with. However, the products being sampled are not part of the store's normal sales channels. Our boss is on his way to the store and will be there in about fifteen minutes."
"You can retrieve the goods first, but we also need the boss's signature to confirm it. Please see..."
Team leader Li first asked his subordinates to pick up the goods according to the list. Seeing that the store staff were very friendly and had no temper, he said: "Then we will wait a little longer. After you finish the process here, we will leave."
"Okay, I'll go to the front desk and get some soda water for everyone."
Team Leader Li waved his hand: "Office hours, no need."
"Then I'll excuse myself first. You see, I have a lot of things to deal with." Wang Yi gestured with the documents in his hand.
So the investigation team scattered around the store, and because they were dressed in the same way, they attracted the attention of some customers when they entered the store.
Some people came quietly from a distance, wanting to hear what these people were doing in the group, and some even held up their mobile phones to secretly take pictures.
I think he was planning to post it online so that netizens can watch the show together.
The manager's estimated time was very accurate. Fifteen minutes later, a tall man appeared at the door.
Xia Jialian took a quick look and knew that this man must be the boss the manager was talking about.
It looks very different from other people who come in to shop and join in the fun.
The man was dressed simply and elegantly, wearing a loose beige round-neck sweatshirt on the upper body, light khaki casual trousers underneath, and brown lacquered leather shoes without a speck of dust on his feet.
It can be seen that the hairstyle has been carefully groomed, and each strand of hair has been curled to the perfect fluffy arc through the use of mousse.
He also wore glasses, but he gave a completely different impression from Team Leader Li. Those were a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, just as an accessory, adding a bit of elegance.
If you look closely at the clothes, you will find that they are all branded, with the logos hidden in the corners. It is difficult for people who don't know the business to spot them at first glance.
As soon as he arrived at the store, the store manager, who was busy in the distance, came over to greet him with great tact.
"Boss Ai, that person over there is Team Leader Li from the Consumer Association's investigation team."
"Well, there wasn't any conflict, right?" The boss's voice was somewhat bewitching, and as he passed by, the scent of a light and high-end perfume wafted towards him.
All in all, it looks very expensive.
Wang Yi was much more flattering than before: "According to President Ai's instructions, we have tried our best to meet the requirements of the investigation team."
"That's good." Mr. Ai strode towards Team Leader Li. When he paused, his back was slightly straightened. He was calm but with a hint of insolence. His chin was slightly raised as he greeted him. "Hello, Team Leader Li. I'm Ai Bao, the head of Blue Beach Commercial."
