Chapter 1908 Zhou Tiedong, the Selected Shop Assistant
Have we found a suitable candidate for the job?
"Who?" Meng Yunzheng realized his mistake as soon as he asked, "You mean, Zhou Tiedong?"
“Yes.” Shu Yu’s first thought was him. “He has experience as a shop assistant. The lady who owns the shop next door to the grocery store once said that he’s sweet-talking and hardworking. When he was a shop assistant, the grocery store did very well, and there were many repeat customers. I’ve met him, and he’s a good person. He understands me very quickly, and communication is very smooth. He’s a very good candidate. However, we still need to ask his opinion.”
If Zhou Tiedong had a failed experience as a shop assistant and developed a psychological shadow, and only wanted to marry Wang Yue in Tuqiao Village and become a wife and mother, she couldn't force him to.
Meng Yunzheng nodded, "But one helper isn't enough, is it? This shop isn't small."
"That's definitely not enough. We need at least two more workers, and a manager too." Oh well, it seems we still have to hire.
"Then recruit from outside. A while ago, many experienced shopkeepers were implicated and all went home. If you want to find someone, it shouldn't be too difficult."
Shu Yu raised an eyebrow. "That's right. Changjin Prefecture may not have many other things, but it should have quite a few talented people."
Just look at how many shops have closed down; many owners and employees must have lost their jobs. She can take advantage of this time while the shops are being renovated to learn more about the situation.
"Okay, I'll write a job posting and post it here. I'm sure I can find a suitable candidate."
Now that the shop had been decided, Shu Yu didn't delay any longer and quickly told Qi Lie about the shop she had chosen. When the latter took a look at the shop, it was indeed consistent with what Meng Yunzheng had initially said.
Tsk, this couple...
Qi Lie was unwittingly shown off again.
However, since Shu Yu had chosen a shop, it meant she would be staying in Changjin Prefecture for a long time, and Meng Yunzheng would naturally be unable to leave as well. Thinking of this, Qi Lie felt a surge of satisfaction.
He completed the formalities for Shuyu efficiently, and the auction of the other shop deeds can now be put on the agenda.
The next day, Shu Yu stayed in the inn and began writing a business plan, drawing a simple layout of the shop, and sending a letter to Dong'an Prefecture. If the shop was going to open soon, then she could now notify Brother Da Niu to prepare the goods and ship them over.
Shu Rui and Er Niu were both surprised to hear that Shu Yu was going to open a shop here. The two of them didn't go out to play that day and stayed at the inn to help out.
On the third day, Shu Yu and Ying Xi returned to Chenggu County together.
She originally thought that after dealing with Chen Bing in the prefectural city, she would stay for a few more days at most, so she didn't bring much stuff.
Now that I'm busy with the shop's affairs, I'll be staying here for a while, so naturally I'll bring my change of clothes and personal belongings with me.
And as for the old lady, she always had to give her instructions, arrange things for what followed, and bring her father along as well.
I also need to make a trip to Zhou Tiedong's place in Tuqiao Village.
Shu Yu returned in a hurry, only a day after the old lady returned. Therefore, when the old lady and others saw her, they were all stunned.
I was telling her to spend more time alone with her grandson-in-law to build up their relationship, so I wonder if they had a fight since she suddenly came back.
Shu Yu was both amused and exasperated. She told the old lady about opening a shop in Changjin Mansion, then added with some regret, "Grandma, when you go back, I won't be able to go with you. The preparations for opening the shop will take a long time, so you'll have to..."
