"Cousin, what kind of friend is that? Giving him such good treatment, there must be something wrong with it, right?"
Chang Jing was really young, and his friends made Xu Yumei a little uneasy, especially since the pay for this job was better than anything she had ever encountered before.
"There's definitely no problem. Actually, I have a share in that shop, but I have to go to school and can't manage it myself. Cousin, please help me!"
Seeing that Xu Yumei was interested, Chang Jing changed his tune.
"What? You own a piece of the clothing store?!"
Xu Yumei was so surprised she almost jumped up. Opening a clothing store, not counting rent and renovations, just the initial inventory alone would cost at least ten thousand yuan! Her cousin had a share; how much did he contribute?
“I made some money selling fruit with Chang Ling during the summer vacation, and now I’ve invested it all here, so you have to help me keep an eye on the cabinets and keep good accounts.”
No wonder! My aunt's fruit stall is quite profitable, though it's hard work and a bit embarrassing. I never imagined my cousins were so capable, able to make money running their own stalls.
"Okay, when do I start work?"
Seeing that Xu Yumei had agreed, Chang Jing breathed a sigh of relief. His first important employee was finally settled. As for the remaining two salespeople, he could just choose two eloquent people from the people he had interviewed before.
"Today is Saturday, and the shop will officially open next Tuesday. Cousin, you can go to shop number 211 in section A of Xingxing Clothing City at nine o'clock on Monday morning. I will also be at the shop then."
After agreeing on his work schedule, Chang Jing prepared to go back home. He planned to go to the clothing wholesale market in Guangzhou early the next morning to purchase goods.
Guangzhou has the most clothing wholesale markets in the country, and Huacheng County is only a two-hour drive away. Huacheng County has nine small towns, and people from these towns usually gather in Huacheng County for shopping, which has created Huacheng County's commercial street and clothing market, which is booming.
Prepare several red, white, and blue woven bags and a folding handcart—the standard equipment for wholesalers.
Shahe Garment Wholesale City offers the cheapest source of goods in the entire city. Changjing's clothing store is positioned to sell in the mid-to-low range in volume, so it's the perfect place for him to source his goods.
Chang Jing selects pure cotton T-shirts that are generally priced between 6 and 10 yuan, and the designs and styles are popular among young people.
When he comes across a good quality shop, he cleverly asks for their phone number so he can call directly to restock and then transfer the money for city bus freight to pick up the goods quickly.
In general, doing the clothing business requires buyers to have a keen sense of fashion. However, Chang Jing's biggest "but" is his rebirth; he knows all the trends of this era.
Bell-bottoms, polka-dot skirts, bohemian-style maxi dresses paired with knitted cardigans—summer clothes are being sold as autumn outfits at the end of August.
After shopping all day, Chang Jing pulled a handcart, which was already filled with six or seven red, white and blue woven bags. Just as the shops were about to close, Chang Jing reluctantly left.
It was past 8 p.m. when he returned to Huacheng. After putting all the goods in the shop and locking the gate, Chang Jing dragged his tired body home.
Although he had gone home, his work was not yet finished. A pile of order forms were waiting for him to sort and price them, and he also had to adjust the coding machine to print the unit prices.
After working busily in the space for most of the night and then dozing off for the rest of the night, Chang Jing woke up to find himself alone at home. But Chang Ling still thoughtfully prepared breakfast for him as always.
After a hurried breakfast, Chang Jing rushed to Xingxing Clothing City. As agreed, today was the day for the three employees to report for work. Chang Jing had to help them organize and hang up the clothes, and also put up the retail prices.
"Good morning, Jing! Have you had breakfast yet? I bought some steamed buns, want to eat some together?"
Xu Yumei glanced at her watch; it was only a little past eight o'clock, and there was still some time before she officially started work.
"Good morning, Sister Mei. I've already eaten, you can eat! I'll put the unit prices on these clothes first, and two more salespeople will be coming over in a bit."
Tomorrow is the official opening day of the clothing market, and Chang Jing only has one day left, so he has to hurry up and get the shop ready.
Soon, two more young women arrived. Chang Jing gave them the prepared recruitment contracts to sign and took copies of their ID cards before starting to arrange their work for the day.
"Sister Ping, Sister Juan, could you please take out the clothes over there, iron them, and then hang them up? It would be best if you could write down the unit price now."
"Okay, little boss."
Both of them were experienced in selling clothes and knew a lot about the work in a clothing store, so they worked very efficiently and could even put together their own outfits.
After finishing her breakfast, Xu Yumei quickly joined in. Her job mainly involved bookkeeping and cashiering, so Chang Jing explained the requirements to her in detail and helped her familiarize herself with the process.
The cashier job is actually very simple. What's not simple is the cash flow of the clothing store. There is a lot of cash coming in every day. Chang Jing can't come to collect the cash every day, so Xu Yumei needs to go to the bank to deposit the money into Chang Jing's bank account.
After a whole day of hard work, the four of them finally finished setting up the clothing store, which will open tomorrow. As the boss, Chang Jing has to give his employees a good encouragement.
"Alright, everyone has worked hard today. I'll treat you all to dinner at Cafe de Coral tonight."
After finishing the last bit of work, Chang Jing took the three beautiful ladies into a taxi.
After spending the day together, the two salespeople relaxed and chatted and laughed with Chang Jing. In their words, this young boss was too easy to tease.
