Today, at Yan Xiaonan's request, we need ten people: five girls and five boys. After all, we're selling furniture, so the girls can do marketing, and the boys will have to do the physical labor.
When Grandma Wang explained the wages and benefits, the people who had lined the street to welcome them erupted in excitement. Especially when they heard Grandma Wang add that they were all temporary workers at the Beijing Furniture Factory, they were almost torn to pieces if it weren't for Grandma Wang's grandson.
Fortunately, it was the end of the year and the weather was cold. Grandma Wang was wearing a thick cotton-padded coat, but the two sleeves were almost torn off. Grandma Wang was so angry that she shouted, "Who tore my clothes just now? Get out here! I'll introduce you to the factory. My new clothes cost me ten yuan!"
A young man walked up with his head down: "Grandma Wang, I tore it. I'm sorry, I'll pay for it, but I don't have any money right now. I'll pay you back when I have a job, okay?"
Grandma Wang glanced at the young man; he looked somewhat familiar. He must have just come from the countryside. Many military families send their children back to their hometowns because they have many children. Giving them a little extra money each month can help alleviate their housing shortage.
"I don't know you well, so I can't recommend you for an interview. We'll talk about it later when I get to know you better. And who was that bastard who was pulling my clothes earlier? Come out here."
Grandma Wang sneered inwardly, thinking that someone would eventually tell her. She called out several times but no one came out.
Sure enough, that evening, several families came to Grandma Wang's house carrying small odds and ends and told her about the other person who had tugged at her sleeve. Grandma Wang carefully remembered the person's name. This kind of person was of very poor character, daring to do something but not daring to admit it, and she absolutely could not introduce him to the furniture factory.
Grandma Wang carefully selected twenty people and sent them to the furniture factory to find the HR department head. She told them that the HR head had a keen eye and that they should choose one of the two and wished them good luck.
Learning from his previous experience, Shen Shaohua was much stricter this time, practically digging up people's entire family history. During the interrogation, those who were impatient, had shifty eyes, had engaged in petty theft, or were lazy were rejected. After seeing that half of the people had already been rejected, he finally kept ten.
Those who were left behind wept with joy, their hands trembling as they signed the contracts, their names written in a jumbled mess. Shen Shaohua was furious; could they not write properly anymore? Only then did they regain their composure and carefully write their names stroke by stroke.
After receiving their uniforms, these people were about to start working, but Southwest was cautious and asked Shen Shaohua to give them a week of proper training before they started working, otherwise they would be ridiculed by the veteran sales staff.
So, Shen Shaohua transformed into a teacher and explained all the rules and regulations and products of the furniture factory to them, requiring them to go back and memorize them. Those who couldn't memorize them didn't need to come to work. How could those people not memorize them? They stayed up all night to memorize them.
After introducing the product, they were to familiarize themselves with it. Three days later, they were sent to a department store for an internship. Shen Shaohua personally supervised the work on-site. When the sales staff in the department store saw this, they became a little nervous and worked harder, which was a good opportunity for the new employees to learn from him.
After a week-long internship, Yan Xiaonan personally checked on the work of these new employees and thought to herself, "New employees are always better. Look at them, how enthusiastic, how dedicated, how hardworking they are, and even their mouths are so sweet, calling everyone 'uncle, aunt, brother, sister'."
He decisively instructed Shen Shaohua to report to the department store's management that their sales staff should be returned and the business should be self-sufficient. Since the space had been leased to them, it would be better to use their own employees.
Some of the sales clerks who were returned had some connections, so they were reassigned to other positions. As for those without any connections, well, you know you don't have any connections and you still don't work hard, so you deserve to be fired.
Yan Xiaonan didn't care about those trivial matters. With the end of the year approaching, clothes were the best-selling item. Yan Yan was already struggling to keep up, and the demand in Shanghai and Beijing was too great. So she wrote a letter asking if her father, Yan Erqiang, could come and help. Yan Erqiang always did odd jobs, and the money he earned wasn't even enough to eat.
Initially, everyone invested 10,000 yuan. Yan Yan's money came from Nan Nan. After several months of hard work, they did earn the money and returned it to Yan Xiaonan. However, later, Nan Nan and Ye Huixian increased their investment, from 10,000 to 30,000 and then 50,000 yuan. Judging from the trend, there was a possibility of further increases. Yan Yan felt that he could not keep up with their pace, so he proposed that no matter how much they invested, he would take 10% of the investment.
At first, Yan Xiaonan felt that Yan Ge was at a disadvantage, but after Ye Chenming reminded her, she realized that Yan Ge would definitely not be at a disadvantage. The more money they invested, the more Yan Ge's 10% share would be. If the Beijing furniture factory developed to a certain scale, Yan Ge's 10% share would definitely not be a small amount.
Upon receiving the letter, Yan Xiaonan fell silent. She discussed the matter with her grandmother, who was deeply troubled. Yan Xiaoqiang shook his head firmly upon hearing this. This fool absolutely could not be involved in his daughter's business, especially since it was in Huacheng, a place so far away that he couldn't possibly keep an eye on her.
You know, the money my daughter always wires starts with tens of thousands of yuan, and sometimes Nan Nan can wire hundreds of thousands. What if this guy has bad intentions? You know, this business isn't just Nan Nan's; Ye Chenming's aunt also owns half of it. The two of them are going to get married in the future. If something like this happens, how can they get married?
Cuihua was even more worried. She knew that Yan Erqiang had divorced, but Cai Min's relationship with Yan Ge had not been severed. A mother and son are still a mother and son. What if Cai Min also got involved?
But Yan Erqiang was his mother's son, so after Yan Xiaoqiang and Cuihua expressed their suggestions, they waited for Grandma Yan to speak. Grandma Yan looked at Nannan and asked, "Baby, what do you think?"
Yan Xiaonan shook her head firmly. Knowing it was trouble, why not stay far away and still invite it in? Isn't that crazy?
Grandma Yan saw Nan Nan shake her head and smiled with relief: "My dear child, I'm just worried that you'll agree against your will because of me. That won't be good for you in the future. Go write a letter. I'd rather hire an outsider than Yan Erqiang!"
Yan Xiaonan unfolded the letter and earnestly analyzed the drawbacks of Yan Erqiang's arrival. He then bluntly told him that Yan Erqiang was his father, and there were many ways for him to be filial to him. He should not confuse his filial piety with their business.
The letter quickly reached Yan Ge's hands. As he read each word, Yan Ge broke out in a cold sweat, feeling terrified. Nan Nan was absolutely right; how could he have been so foolish? He folded the letter and placed it by his pillow, intending to read it often to remind himself of what he could and could not do.
