Given He Wenlin's age, her harsh words were not taken seriously by He Xing or anyone else.
I just think kids are just venting.
Back at the shop, Mr. He lost all his energy for work. He sat sullenly on a plastic stool and started smoking.
"Alright, go do what you're supposed to do, don't delay today's meal preparation." He Wenlin sent everyone off to work.
He Shan also went back to the Bosi Garment Factory to secure orders.
Once no one else was around, He Wenlin whispered, "Dad, I know you're angry, but beating him ten times won't help. I have an idea..."
Mr. He immediately perked up: "What idea?"
"But I'm afraid you won't agree."
"I'll definitely agree as long as it helps me deal with him! Don't keep me in suspense, just tell me!"
He Wenlin had learned her lesson in her past life and knew very well the saying "walls have ears."
So she didn't say anything, but instead wrote her idea on a piece of paper and put it in front of him to show him.
After her father finished reading, He Wenlin quickly crossed out the words.
Mr. He looked at He Wenlin with a deep gaze: "I think you're pretending to want revenge on him, but you really want me to get a business license."
“Dad, this is the most effective way to deal with him,” He Wenlin said with a smile. “If you don’t want to get the business license, I can ask my grandma. Grandma is the most law-abiding. Do you think she will come with me? And Grandma will definitely not ask me for a single penny.”
He Wenlin has lived with her grandmother since she was one year old, and the two have a very, very good relationship.
"So once I get the business license, the shop will belong to me? I'll be in charge of the money?"
“Dad, what are you thinking? If we get the business license and health permit in your name, as your daughter, and considering the 500 yuan investment you once gave me, I can give you 2% of the shares. We are father and daughter, but business is business, so we need to have a written agreement.”
"Only two percent?" Mr. He suddenly raised his voice. "I've raised you with so much care and effort, and you're calculating this with me? How stingy you are with your parents!"
"Dad, can you broaden your horizons a bit? I definitely won't give you this shop, but I can open another one for you."
Let He's parents open a new shop and run it themselves, so they won't have to keep an eye on He Wenlin's shop all the time.
How well the new store performs depends on their own abilities; of course, it would be best if they could make money.
If things really fall apart and we suffer losses, it will serve as a lesson for them, making them realize their own limitations and preventing them from constantly thinking about bringing us down so they can take our place.
As a reborn person, I will have many opportunities to make money in the future, and I am not afraid that my parents will ruin a new store.
The old shop is He Wenlin's "first child," and its reputation has already been established. He Wenlin certainly doesn't want to hand it over to her parents to gain experience.
It's a new store, so it doesn't matter. It's just a small amount of money; I'll just accept the loss.
When He Wenlin told him that she would open another store for him, He's father's face lit up with joy.
He Wenlin continued, "Once you've learned enough, we'll find a place to open a branch. When that happens, I'll give you a new freezer. Dad, you only sponsored me with 500 yuan when I opened my shop, but I'll give you a new freezer when you open yours. Isn't that generous of me as your daughter?"
Mr. He was secretly overjoyed, but he still couldn't hold back. He snorted and said, "Your mother and I raised you all these years, have we ever talked to you about getting anything in return?"
"Yes, yes, you've worked hard. I was petty and narrow-minded. Are you calm now? Can you get back to work?"
Only then did Mr. He get up and pick up the kitchen knife again.
Now that He Wenlin's promise is dangling in front of him, He's father's attitude has changed drastically.
At ten o'clock, He Shan ran back, covered in sweat.
His face was beaming with joy.
“Linlin, I only got three orders at the Bosi Garment Factory today, but I went to the Meihua Garment Processing Factory across the river and got twelve fried rice orders and three cucumber salad orders.”
Although there weren't many orders, and they were for low-priced items, He Shan felt a great sense of accomplishment.
What does this mean?
This means she has made a breakthrough!
Most of the customers at the Perth Garment Factory pre-order lunch and afternoon meals when they come to pick up their glutinous rice balls in the morning.
Then, a small number of customers will book with He Xing out of politeness, so there's not much room for further development.
He Shan also thought of this, so she suddenly had the idea to go to the Meihua Garment Factory on the other side of the river.
Although the factory is on the other side of the river, it's not far from the farmers' market; you just need to cross a bridge to get there.
When He Shan was selling goods at a stall before, someone from Meihua Garment Factory knew her, which is why she was able to get the order smoothly today.
He Wenlin never expected that He Shan would go to other factories to solicit orders on her own. Most people wouldn't have that kind of courage, like He Xing.
He Xing was considered smart and decisive, but he only had eyes for his acquaintances at the Bosi Garment Factory and was too embarrassed to try to get orders from other factories.
"Shanshan, you did a great job!" He Wenlin praised. "Meihua has a customer who ordered food from you. It means you've made a good start. Once you establish trust, the factory's orders will definitely increase gradually, and customer loyalty will also improve."
He Shan is really suited for sales.
"Does this factory have a lot of people?" He Wenlin asked.
"Not many, I inquired, there are only about forty people," He Shan said. "Linlin, since they don't have many people, could we develop a downline like Peng Liang?"
He Wenlin had previously stated that she would not recruit part-time salespersons like Peng Liang from other factories for the time being, because current production capacity is limited, especially since several factories close at noon, which is too rushed, and He Wenlin cannot make too many boxed lunches and fried noodles.
But now the situation is different. He Xing is also going to sell glutinous rice, and Mei Hua is likely to become a loyal customer, just like the other factories. Wouldn't it be a pity to give up?
After a moment's thought, He Wenlin said, "Later, we'll go to Meihua Garment Factory together."
He Wenlin planned to take He Shan to talk to the boss or workshop director of Meihua herself.
Let's hurry up and cook the dishes.
At 11:55, Ruan Lingfeng set off on his bicycle with takeout orders from the three factories.
Because she also needed to deliver food to Mei Hua's place, He Shan went along as well.
At lunchtime, when everyone was busy, He Wenlin was short one person.
Having no other choice, He's father had to conscript He Hui into the army.
He Hui didn't complain.
After finishing his work, Mr. He gave him a pack of Baisha cigarettes as a token of his gratitude.
"We might have to work through the night to finish the orders," said Aunt He.
"Does your factory need to buy late-night snacks?" He Shan asked.
She remembered the shirt factory and had ordered late-night snacks from here.
"I don't even know if we'll be working overtime or not," said Aunt He. "Even if we work all night, I'd be too embarrassed to ask the boss if she wants some late-night snacks, let alone ask her to come and buy them from us."
He Wenlin looked at He Shan and said, "If we're sure we have to work overtime all night, Shanshan, let's go talk to my mom's boss together. In business, you can't be shy. Even if they don't buy, we won't lose out."
