Chapter 244: It’s time to hire someone
The next day, Chen Jintao slept in for a rare night.
It’s so nice not to have to go to work. I can just sleep until I wake up naturally.
When I got up, Huo Beichuan was no longer in the room, and the sound of children playing and fighting could be heard from the yard.
Chen Jintao put on her clothes and went out. What she wore now were basically new products from the clothing factory, and her main point was not to miss any opportunity for advertising.
Seeing his wife coming out, Huo Beichuan quickly brought breakfast over, "Wife, come and eat quickly."
"How virtuous!" Chen Jintao joked.
"Eat quickly. There will be a performance by the art troupe today. I'll take you to watch it later." Huo Beichuan was not angry at all.
If those chauvinistic men heard a woman being praised for her virtuousness, they would probably really turn against their wives.
However, if he is a truly chauvinistic man, he probably won't take the initiative to serve food to his wife.
"The performance of the art troupe? I haven't seen it for a long time."
Chen Jintao also became interested, "I didn't expect that this time I would take a vacation for myself, and it would be so appropriate."
"Yes, I just heard about it this morning. However, it is not the main performance of our art troupe. It is equivalent to the military art troupe from the neighboring city coming to our side to communicate and express condolences to us."
"Our art troupe mainly plays a supporting role."
“That should be quite interesting.”
After all, every art troupe has some fixed programs. For example, the art troupe in their army performs the same programs over and over again every time. There is really nothing new.
"Yes, I heard that there will be a play performed today."
"This is quite difficult, right?" Shen Jintao was really interested. She hadn't been to the movies for a long time, and watching a drama was also a different experience.
And you should know that some very famous old artists later came from military art troupes.
For example, singers, actors...
Today, the soldiers in the art troupe are really capable.
Because the art troupe is the most difficult place to enter in the army.
For example, in a military hospital, as long as you can go to a school with corresponding majors and get a diploma, you will have the opportunity to enter.
But the art troupe is a real level-by-level selection process, and it not only looks at appearance but also real ability.
After all, it is very enviable to have such a branch of the military that does not have to go to the battlefield, but only needs to rehearse in the army and can get very high allowances.
This is also why once you join the art troupe, it will be particularly easy to find a partner, whether you are a man or a woman.
Chen Jintao really wanted to see if there were any familiar faces there. After all, she had seen many artists who came out of the art troupe on TV in later generations.
Now that I have this opportunity, of course I also want to see what they were like when they were young.
Huo Beichuan was also very happy to see that his wife was really interested in the performance.
This kind of opportunity is indeed rare, so as soon as I walked out of the yard, I found that many family members were holding their own small stools and walking towards the training ground.
"Today's performance is over at the training ground. Let's bring our own small stools with us." Huo Beichuan said to his wife.
"OK."
Liu Guifen was bound to go and watch the fun. Today happened to be Saturday and the two children didn't have to go to school, so of course they had to go together.
Huo Beichuan held two small stools in each hand, and Liu Guifen also took one, and that was enough.
Qian Mingfang walked out from the next yard, but she didn't go to watch the fun.
She still had to go to the store today, but mainly because the children were on holiday, she went a little late.
But since the sign was hung in advance, there is nothing to worry about.
Seeing Chen Jintao so relaxed and at ease, Qian Mingfang felt a little envious, "I should have asked someone to help me earlier."
"You should have hired them a long time ago." Chen Jintao also said with a smile, "Train some trustworthy people to take over your store as soon as possible. I am still waiting for you to open more branches, otherwise no one will order the clothes produced by my clothing factory."
Qian Mingfang knew that she was joking. "Are you worried that no one will order your clothes? I heard that many people want to contact you to order goods recently."
"Yeah, but we're still discussing it. I still hope they can hang a unified sign."
Qian Mingfang's clothing store is called "Qiao Jia Ren". Chen Jintao thinks this name is pretty good and also very suitable for this era.
So when Xiao Hongying opened a store later, she also used this name, which was equivalent to the chain store in later generations.
But not everyone can accept this model. After all, some people definitely have their own ideas about their clothing stores.
However, the mandatory requirement of the garment factory to hang uniform signs was hard for them to accept. Some people gave up directly, while others were still considering it.
However, several contracts were signed one after another, but not many were from this city. Most of them were from neighboring cities who heard the news.
This had no impact on Qian Mingfang and Xiao Hongying's shops, and Shen Jintao thought it was pretty good.
She herself did not expect to open many stores in the city. In fact, even if seven or eight Qiao Jia Ren stores were opened in a city, the business would not be bad. After all, there were only a few clothing stores now, but there were many consumers, so it would not have much impact at all.
However, people like Qian Mingfang still have some concerns, and Shen Jintao is not in a hurry to wait until their minds are opened and they will know.
"Then I won't tell you anything. I'm going to go over first. The kids in my family are also going to watch the show later. Please keep an eye on them for me."
"Okay, go ahead, but drive slowly." Chen Jintao waved at Qian Mingfang.
Gu Haijun, Gu Haiping and Gu Haian were all grown men now. They each carried their own small stools and went out.
Huo Beichuan directly asked them to go together, because Brigade Commander Gu was still busy and he really couldn't take care of the three boys.
Now that Gu Haijun has entered junior high school, he has learned how to take care of others and can take good care of his two younger brothers.
Therefore, Brigade Commander Gu and his wife Qian Mingfang were not that worried.
"Aunt, how come you are free today? I haven't seen you for a long time." Gu Haijun was a cheerful child. After seeing Chen Jintao, he took the initiative to greet and ask.
"Just like you guys go to school, Auntie also needs to take a break."
Shen Jintao said with a smile.
The youngest, Gu Haian, surrounded Dabao and Erbao, chattering non-stop.
The eldest and second child are now attending the Yuhong class and can understand what their older brother is saying. After hearing their older brother show off how interesting it is to go to primary school, the two little ones also clamor to go to primary school.
This made Liu Guifen a little embarrassed. "It's not that I don't want to send you to elementary school, but the key is that the school has to be willing to accept you. Don't you see how old you two little rascals are?"
