"Yes, if this continues, we might be able to earn back the money we spent on the house in a month or two."
Yu Jiu was very happy; she was happy to have made money. However, this was just a good idea. After all, it was the opening day, and they said today's discounts were the biggest, so it was normal to attract so many people. The number of customers would definitely decrease a lot tomorrow and the day after, but that didn't matter.
Once you buy a house, it's yours forever. It doesn't matter if it takes six months, a year, or two to earn back the rent.
After Yu Jiu and Xu Zi settled the bill, they put all the money in their spatial storage and took it with them. They planned to take the money out the next day when the door opened; they couldn't possibly leave the money here. After all, no one was guarding the place, and if someone came to steal it, the loss would be too great.
However, with so many clothes displayed here, they must be quite valuable. Yu Jiu and Xu Zijiang thought that when they were recruiting workers in the next couple of days, they would need to find a strong young man to guard the shop at night, which would essentially be considered providing him with accommodation, and they could free up a space in the backyard for him to sleep.
After a long day, they were both exhausted. After getting home, they ate dinner, took a shower, and went to bed, sleeping soundly with their child in their arms. Even though they were tired, the joy of working together as a family was sweet.
The next morning, Yu Jiu and Xu Zijiang went to the clothing store to open for business again. At the same time, they also wrote a recruitment advertisement and posted it at the store entrance, looking for male employees aged 18-40 who were in good health.
"Wait a minute, isn't something a little off? We mostly sell women's clothing here. If we specifically hire a male employee, will he be able to sell clothes? Maybe we should switch to a female employee, but then again, a female employee can't manage the store, so this is a bit tricky."
Yu Jiu watched Xu Zijiang paste the job advertisement on the door, and the more she looked at it, the more something seemed off. She felt that women were more likely to sell clothes, and besides, women understood women better; it wasn't a men's clothing store.
"Then let's change the job requirements. Let's not specify gender, let's make it gender-neutral, see who applies, and then see if we can find a suitable candidate."
Xu Zijiang also felt that something was wrong, so the two of them simply tore up the job advertisement and rewrote it, raising the age limit to 50.
If we hired someone a little older, like a woman in her thirties, forties, or forties, to watch the shop, that would probably work. As long as someone is there, thieves won't dare to come. It doesn't necessarily have to be a man.
"good."
The two rewrote a chapter and added a requirement at the bottom: they could guard the shop and live there. They wrote down all the requirements and posted it again, then saw who would apply.
The price hasn't been written down yet because the salary is negotiable. Yu Jiu is offering a range of 35-50 yuan, with no commission, just a fixed salary. This salary is actually quite high, but Yu Jiu is offering it because it requires him to be on duty at the store. The waiters and waitresses that Lin Xiaonong looked at when she was looking for jobs only earned 20 or 30 yuan a month.
It's even more tiring.
As expected, there were fewer customers today than yesterday, with the foot traffic down by about half. However, Yu Jiu and Xu Zijiang weren't worried. Even with only half the foot traffic from yesterday, there were still quite a few people buying clothes. Moreover, some people didn't want to buy multiple items and were too lazy to wait for others to join them in order. Some people even bought the clothes at high prices, which allowed Yu Jiu and Xu Zijiang to make a fortune.
"Hello, are you hiring here?"
Around noon, a little girl nervously entered; she wanted to apply for a job selling clothes.
Yes, are you the one applying for the job?
Yu Jiu looked the girl up and down and felt that her face looked particularly young. She probably wasn't even 18 yet.
"It's me, my name is Sun Haohao, I'm 16 years old this year."
Sun Haohao clutched the hem of her clothes. She had wanted to lie, but she was too embarrassed to do so. After hesitating for a long time, she finally revealed her real age. Because she was still young, she had applied for jobs in many places, but no one wanted her.
"this····"
Sixteen is indeed a bit young, and they need to find someone to stay in the store and watch it.
Yu Jiu hesitated about how to refuse her. Perhaps sensing Yu Jiu's meaning, she lowered her head in frustration. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly mustered her courage and looked up with a whoosh.
“I’m very capable. Can you let me stay and work? I don’t need such a high salary, 20 yuan a month is fine.”
"I'll do whatever you tell me to do, I'm very obedient!"
"Well... why do you want to start looking for a job now?"
Seeing that the young girl was really flustered, Yu Jiu decided to give her a chance to get to know her better first.
“There are no adults in my family anymore. I’m living with my uncle now, along with my younger brother who is only 8 years old. My uncle can’t support both of us, so I have to come out and find a job.”
Sun Haohao told the truth, and then she honestly gave her current address, which was on Qingle Street, not far from here, about a 15-minute walk away.
That's quite close, and if she didn't want to stay at her uncle's house, she'd probably be even happier if the little girl stayed at the shop.
"I don't really have any heavy work to do. I just hire employees to sell clothes. My job is to sell clothes, arrange the clothes neatly, and move the clothes out of stock when they're out of stock. When I'm not busy, I sweep the floor. That's basically all the work I do. I'm the one who collects the money."
Even if you're young, you can actually do the job, but I mainly want to find someone to live here and watch the shop for me at night. If we don't live here, I'm afraid a thief might suddenly come and take everything from the shop without us even knowing.
Yu Jiu explained her intention to hire an employee, but the girl was really pitiful, and seeing that she had a pretty face, she thought that if she was trained, she could probably be a good seller of clothes. So Yu Jiu hesitated whether to hire her.
Sun Haohao knew that Yu Jiu was looking for someone to help run the store; she had written it in the job posting. That was why she was willing to take a pay cut to work there.
"I know you're worried that I can't manage the shop by myself, right? But don't underestimate me just because I'm a girl and young. I'm actually very strong. I could even beat up an adult man. Don't worry, boss, I'll definitely be able to take good care of the shop for you!"
Sun Haohao said anxiously, and she even rolled up her sleeves to show Yu Jiu her muscles. The girl's small arms really did have a thin layer of muscles. Yu Jiu pinched them and found them hard.
"You look really nice. I'm not so much worried about my shop anymore after hiring you; I'm mainly worried about your safety. You're good-looking too. I'm afraid I'll leave you here alone..."
However, Yu Jiu still hesitated. If nothing goes wrong, it's fine, but if something does, it could ruin the girl's life. How could she take responsibility?
"I'm fine, really don't worry about me, really! Boss, if you don't believe me, find someone to fight me. If I can beat him, then please take me in and let me work here, okay?"
Sun Haohao noticed that Yu Jiu was wavering, so she quickly pleaded with Yu Jiu and even suggested fighting, leaving Yu Jiu both amused and exasperated.
"No need, this isn't a martial arts school. I'll have my man test you. He's a very good fighter. If you can last three or five moves against him, I'll keep you here to work. You'll still get 35 yuan a month. If you do a good job, I'll give you a raise."
