Since bringing Luo Yingzi to work at the store in the provincial capital, Yang Qiaoqiao has increased Yang Hongying's base salary by ten yuan per month, plus a 0.5% sales commission for the entire store, and appointed her as the store manager.
During this period, Yang Hongying also worked very hard.
Every purchase and shipment is recorded very clearly, and the daily sales list, sales amount, and inventory are also recorded clearly.
"Qiaoqiao, the store is short of clothes," Yang Hongying said with a hint of anxiety in her voice.
Yang Qiaoqiao frowned slightly. "Sister-in-law, do you mean someone stole the clothes?"
"Yes, yes, that's exactly what I mean." Yang Hongying said repeatedly, "For the past three days, when I checked the clothes, I found that some clothes were missing."
For the first two days, I thought it was because I hadn't been watching the clothes carefully enough and some customer had stolen them. I felt it was my responsibility, so I paid out of my own pocket to replace the stolen clothes.
But these past two days, I've been watching every customer who comes into the store very closely, and I've discovered that the clothes weren't stolen by a customer.
"Sister-in-law, have you caught the person who took the clothes?" Yang Qiaoqiao asked calmly.
Yang Hongying nodded repeatedly on the other end of the phone, "We caught them, we caught them. After I found out that the clothes were not taken by the customer, I paid special attention to the people in our store."
Just now, when Hu Lihui was secretly stuffing a new dress into her clothes, I caught her red-handed!
I called you to ask what we should do about her.
Yang Hongying was initially worried that Yang Qiaoqiao would blame her for what happened in the store.
But as she talked about it, all she felt was anger.
That damned Hu Lihui! She stole things from the store while she was in charge, and I even had to pay out of my own pocket to make up for it.
Regardless of whether Qiaoqiao still needs her or not, she is determined to make her return all the money she contributed.
“Sister-in-law, calculate the cost of the clothes she took. Make her either return the clothes or compensate for the price. After this matter is resolved, pay her the wages that haven’t been settled yet, and tell her she doesn’t need to come to work tomorrow.”
Yang Qiaoqiao said directly.
It's normal for clothes to be stolen in the clothing business, but employees who steal from their own premises are absolutely unacceptable.
As soon as Yang Qiaoqiao finished speaking, Hu Lihui's tearful voice came from the other end of the line, "Boss, I'll pay, I'm willing to pay, please, don't use me."
My dad was in a car accident a while ago and lost a leg. My mom is now seriously ill, and my younger brother is still in school. If I lose this job, my family won't be able to survive, boss..."
Yang Qiaoqiao remembered that when Hu Lihui came for the interview, she was wearing a floral shirt and jeans, and was a very presentable young woman.
I never expected her family to be in such dire straits.
No matter how difficult her family's situation was, Yang Qiaoqiao felt sympathy for her, but she never thought of forgiving her.
On the other end of the phone, Hu Lihui was still crying, "Boss, it's because my mom needs more medicine again, and I really can't afford it. I'm at my wit's end..."
I promise I'll work hard and pay for all the clothes. Please, I beg you, give me another chance!
Yang Qiaoqiao's voice was cold and stern, "Hu Lihui, if your family is really facing difficulties, there are many ways to resolve this. For example, you can explain the situation to me and ask for an advance on your salary."
Even if I don't go to the store much, if you tell the store manager about your family situation, she will still tell me if she can't help you.
But you chose to solve your family's problems by stealing. I definitely won't be hiring you anymore. You can get back the clothes you stole, and for the ones you can't, you'll have to compensate me at 80% of the selling price. I'll have the store manager pay you your full salary.
If you are not satisfied with this solution, I will have no choice but to call the police.
It's normal to encounter difficulties in life, but if someone tries to solve these difficulties by crossing moral or even legal boundaries, that kind of person is absolutely unacceptable.
After Yang Qiaoqiao finished speaking, Hu Lihui burst into tears on the other end of the line.
At the same time, Yang Hongying's voice came through the phone, "Hu Lihui, are you going to return those clothes you stole or pay for them? Give me a straight answer. If you don't say anything, I'm calling the police!"
After Yang Qiaoqiao provided a solution, she put Yang Hongying in charge of handling the matter.
At this time, Zhou Yang and Wu Xiaocao also arrived in the provincial capital from Yun County.
After nearly a year of training, Wu Xiaocao has transformed from a shy young girl into a capable career woman.
Upon arriving at Yang Qiaoqiao's house, he greeted everyone warmly, "Hello, Sister Qiaoqiao, Hello, Brother Beixiao, Hello, Auntie."
As she spoke, she put down the fruit and eggs she had brought. “Sister Qiaoqiao, these pears are from our own fruit trees, and the eggs are from our own chickens. Please try them. If you like them, I’ll ask Director Zhou to bring you some next time.”
Zhou Yang is the factory manager of the garment factory, and people in the factory generally call her Factory Manager Zhou.
When the garment factory first opened, many newly recruited employees saw that Zhou Yang was young and assumed that he was just a nepotism hire who didn't know anything.
Just pretend to comply while secretly deceiving him.
Zhou Yang established his prestige by making an example of a few people and dismissing several others.
Later, the workers discovered that although Zhou Yang was young, he knew every aspect of the garment factory's production process like the back of his hand, and they couldn't fool him at all. So they respected him even more and dared not try to fool him in the slightest.
At this moment, Zhou Yang and Wu Xiaocao were already playing with An An and Lele.
Zhou Yang held Lele high in his arms, making Lele giggle.
Wu Xiaocao held An'an on her lap, stretched out a finger for An'an to play with, and made "ah ah oh oh" sounds to coax An'an to talk.
