Chapter 41 Proofing
"It's cold outside, let's come in and talk." Cheng Hui said.
The woman looked at Cheng Hui and blinked. This young wife was really like what her husband said: she was good at speaking, well-educated, and willing to consider others.
She looked at Cheng Hui with a friendly look and said as she walked in, "My husband bought five big bags of Weifeng cakes from you a few days ago, and it was the workers in your factory who helped deliver them home."
"Oh~" Cheng Hui glanced at her figure and asked, "Do you live in the district committee staff quarters?"
She and the fat uncle that day looked very much like a perfect couple and their figures were also similar.
The woman laughed immediately: "Yes, yes, that's him!"
"What's your sister's name?" Cheng Hui asked.
The woman laughed: "What sister? You have to call me auntie. I'm probably older than your mom!"
"That's impossible!" Cheng Hui said firmly, "Look at your skin, it's fine, without any wrinkles, and you're so white without any makeup that it almost reflects light. I think you're in your early 30s at most!"
The woman smiled even more happily. She is 39 years old this year.
The thing I am most proud of in my life is my skin, it is so white and so good! There's nothing wrong with it except that it's a little fat!
Cheng Hui just hit her sore spot, and she liked Cheng Hui even more.
“My last name is Shen, and my husband’s last name is Wang, so you can just call me Aunt Shen!
“To be honest with you, this majestic cake of yours is simply too good!
"Your Uncle Wang bought a few bags that day and distributed them. There was no response the next day. On the third day, which was this afternoon, many people came to your Uncle Wang and asked him to buy more!
“I heard that their children and their friends’ children were clamoring for food, but they arrived too late and couldn’t buy any.
"Originally, your uncle Wang asked me to buy 5 bags yesterday and today, but I was in a hurry to play mahjong and forgot about it!
"When he found out I didn't buy it, he gave me a good scolding!"
The woman was already standing in the middle of the first floor of the department store. It was no longer cold here. She looked around and asked, "Where's the cake?"
She thought Cheng Hui pulled her in because the cake was placed here.
Cheng Hui said: "Today's stock is really sold out, and our event is over."
"No, I'm not short of money!" the woman said anxiously.
Cheng Hui said: "You didn't come this morning. If you had come, you would have known that as soon as I walked in, the cakes were almost all gone in just a few minutes."
"Yes, yes, that's right." The shoe salesperson next to her chimed in: "It's no use for you to come. It's hard to get one. I queued up but couldn't get in!"
I heard that Cheng Hui took advantage of coal, favors, time and risk to make the cream cake for them, and she stopped Li Fang from collecting money. All the salespeople couldn't say a bad word.
This girl is so nice!
"What should I do now?" The woman was still anxious: "I have promised the good family that I will buy it for them! If I fail now, how can my man and I live in the future?
"Think of another way. No matter what, you have to help me get 10 big bags of cakes! I'll pay you more! How about 2 yuan each? Do you have any stock in your factory?"
The shoe salesperson was jealous, there are so many rich people.
However, this majestic cake doesn’t seem to be expensive, and people are willing to buy it even at 2 yuan each!
Wouldn't the little cream cakes she was going to make be more valuable?
No, she should make two kilograms!
The shoe salesperson asked her colleague next to her to help her watch the counter while she went home to get something!
The staff quarters of the department store are not far away, which is convenient.
Of course, she couldn’t just go home during working hours. When she looked up, she saw Cui Degui with a gloomy face.
She was stunned for a moment, then she covered her stomach and said, "Oh, manager, I can't take it anymore! My stomach hurts! I need to go to the hospital!"
Cui Degui glared at her: You are the one who can’t do it! I think you are really in trouble!
"Manager, I have a stomachache. Will you let me go to the hospital? If you don't let me go..."
Cui Degui waved his hand irritably: "Go away!" Get out!
Of course I didn’t dare say the last word.
Those who have worked in department stores for 10 to 20 years have become seasoned veterans, very skilled in manipulating their superiors.
If he dares to say that they are not allowed to go, there will be rumors the next day that "he ignores the health of his employees and forces them to work while sick"!
Why does he understand so much? Because it has happened several times!
Cui Degui turned his head and continued to look at Cheng Hui to see how she was fooling the other party.
Chen Qiuju was already holding Cheng Hui's hand and shaking it.
Cheng Hui said: “Sister Shen, I know your difficulties, but the factory really has no stock, and it is taken away by other units as soon as it comes out.”
Shen Qiuju's face turned bad and she was about to get angry.
Cheng Hui said again: "But do you think this is okay? I will make it for you when I get home today, and you can come here to get it at 8:30 tomorrow morning?
"As for the price, although the promotion has ended, you booked it today..." Cheng Hui winked at her: "I'll give you today's price, which is still 50% off!"
Chen Qiuju's expression turned from gloomy to bright, and she immediately said, "Okay! Then give me 20 bags, 200 pieces!"
With such a big discount here, she will have an easier time explaining when she gets home!
Cheng Hui said with a bitter face: "Sister Chen, you are really good..."
Chen Qiuju was also a little embarrassed. It was indeed a bit too much to take advantage of someone by 100 yuan at once.
“Sister Shen, you know that we limit the quantity to 5 bags for big customers. I see that you are buying for others, so I let you buy more.”
Chen Qiuju was about to change her words and say to stick to the original plan, but Cheng Hui said:
"You can buy more if you want, but you have to provide the production materials yourself."
Cheng Hui said: "Our production materials are all quantified, and the daily production tasks are also determined by the higher-ups. We are allocated a certain amount of coal based on how many kilograms we produce each day.
"This is unplanned. I can't use tomorrow's materials for you. But if you provide the raw materials yourself, I can discuss with the factory and have you work overtime and bake a few batches separately.
“In addition, 200 cakes need to be baked in at least two batches. If they are not baked well, they need to be re-baked, which requires three or even four batches. Each batch takes an hour to bake and uses 20 kilograms of coal.
"Well, I won't ask for more from you, just give me the cost of three furnaces.
"As for the price, of course I have to deduct the cost of the raw materials you provided. I won't charge you a penny more!"
After doing the math, it becomes clear.
Although she provided extra raw materials, her salary was deducted!
She didn't spend a penny more, and they even charged her half price, so she could bake as much as she wanted!
What else is there to be dissatisfied about?
"Okay, okay, I'll go get the materials for you. What do you want?"
"Three furnaces contain 12 kilograms of flour, 300 eggs, 3 kilograms of milk powder, and 3 kilograms of sugar." Cheng Hui opened his mouth widely.
Except for the flour weight, everything else is wrong!
Aunt Qiao, who was not far away, grimaced when she heard it.
She originally came to Cheng Hui to show off her achievements, but ended up being taught a lesson again.
According to the recipe Cheng Hui told them, only 6 eggs are needed for 1 jin of flour, but she asked for more than 200 eggs...
You don’t need that much milk powder and sugar either.
Besides, they have to charge this woman money!
This is not the case where Cheng Hui is doing the processing for these salesmen, only making some money from them by selling materials, and making them work for nothing.
This woman not only has to provide materials and coal, but also money!
Aunt Qiao shook her head. If she had had Cheng Hui's courage back then, would she have become a factory manager now?
Chen Qiuju left, and Cheng Hui smiled at her back.
Now that she has done it, we will see the results tomorrow.
