Chapter 243 Helping to purchase a sewing machine
Su Xiaoxiao touched her nose. "Comrade Chen, what do you mean? What do I have to be proud of? The leaders just gave me the honor of being the number one outstanding employee. I know my own worth. How could I be so arrogant just because of such a small honor?"
A little honor? This damn girl actually thought that first place was a little honor?
Chen Xiaohong's face was distorted with jealousy.
He glared at Su Xiaoxiao fiercely, then turned and left.
"Don't pay attention to her. Chen Xiaohong just can't stand seeing anyone do better than her. She's worked at the department store for over ten years and has been named an outstanding employee several times, but she's never been in the top three. You, a new employee, suddenly got first place. She must be feeling jealous."
Zhang Yulan curled her lips. "She's like a mad dog, biting everyone she catches. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so unmarried at such an old age. Xiaoxiao, just ignore her."
"I understand, Sister Zhang, let's get ready quickly, we're about to open for business."
Su Xiaoxiao glanced at the wall clock and realized that it was almost time to meet her. There was a hint of urgency in her tone.
Zhang Yulan then remembered the important matter: "It's all because of that Chen Xiaohong's crazy behavior. Let's hurry up and don't let Director Chen catch us."
Speak of the devil, and he will appear. Su Xiaoxiao saw Chen Meilan walking towards them from afar, and hurriedly pulled Zhang Yulan and Qin Shuang, and the three of them quickly returned to their counter.
Fortunately, nothing happened. When Chen Meilan looked over, the three men were already standing seriously at the counters they were in charge of.
When Chen Meilan turned around, Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly picked up the shoe she had just run away from and put it on. She had been running too fast and accidentally dropped one of her shoes.
The department store hasn't been very busy lately and it's almost closing time.
As usual, Su Xiaoxiao and her colleagues left work early for training. During this period of time, they had rehearsed the program quite proficiently and were just waiting to make a splash at the gala.
Finally, the rehearsal was over. Su Xiaoxiao waved her hand and said, "It's time to get off work. Everyone go home and find your mother."
During this period of time, several people regarded Su Xiaoxiao as their team leader and were very enthusiastic towards her.
After working like slaves for a whole day, everyone was very tired. When they heard that the team was disbanding, they packed up their things and prepared to leave.
Su Xiaoxiao took a sip of water, put her things into her bag, and was about to lock the door when a familiar voice came from behind her.
"Comrade Su, please wait a moment. I have something I want to discuss with you."
When she turned around, she saw Manager Wang from the Purchasing Department looking at her with a smile.
I couldn't help but wonder, "Manager Wang, are there more unsaleable clothes?"
"No, I've been selling clothes in a coordinated fashion just like you said, and with the mannequin display, business in the clothing section has been pretty good lately. I came to you about the sewing machine."
Manager Wang is not the type to procrastinate, so he immediately stated his purpose.
"Our department store is looking to purchase a batch of those mini electric sewing machines, and I'd like to ask if you have any connections in this area. I heard that you helped Director Dong get a batch of desktop sewing machines, solving the garment factory's shortage problem."
hiss~
I didn't expect this matter to spread so quickly.
Su Xiaoxiao touched her nose and thought to herself, if you don’t make money even though you have the chance, you’re a bastard.
"Manager Wang, regarding our relationship, I won't hide it from you. I do have a relative who has connections in this area, but..."
As soon as Su Xiaoxiao opened her mouth, Manager Wang looked at her excitedly: "Comrade Su, I knew you could do this. I've been to several factories and couldn't find this kind of sewing machine."
Noticing that Su Xiaoxiao seemed hesitant to speak, Manager Wang understood her concerns very well: "Don't worry, as long as the source of this thing is good, I will never ask where it came from."
He has been running around for so long but hasn't found a factory that can produce this kind of sewing machine. It is estimated that this thing may have come from the black market.
Although the black market is not allowed openly, in fact, most of the time the authorities turn a blind eye to it.
After all, everything requires a ticket these days, and sometimes if you don’t have a ticket and something is really in short supply, you have to think of other ways.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't expect Manager Wang to be so receptive, and couldn't help but say, "What about the other leaders..."
"Don't worry, as long as the product comes from a legitimate source and is of good quality, I'll take care of the boss."
Manager Wang assured that the department store's sales had been declining recently and many items were unsaleable. If they could get this mini electric sewing machine, the sales would go up and the leaders would be so happy.
"Okay, Manager Wang, I'll go back and ask my relative in the next couple of days and give you an answer as soon as possible."
Su Xiaoxiao is not pretentious. When it comes to making money, one must be proactive.
But she couldn't agree right away. She had to let Manager Wang know that good things take time, so that he would remember her contribution.
Sometimes this is what it’s like when you work for your boss. Not only do you have to do it well, but you also have to let your boss see your efforts.
Su Xiaoxiao rode her bike all the way back home. As soon as she arrived at the door, she saw Grandma Liu standing at the door looking around.
"Grandma Liu, what are you doing here? The wind is so strong, come inside and sit down."
She stopped the bike and tried to support herself on the ground with her two feet, but the handlebars were too high and her legs were not long enough, so she could only climb down from the bike with great difficulty.
Grandma Liu waved her hands hurriedly: "Xiaoxiao girl, grandma came here this time to ask for your help."
Su Xiaoxiao had a very good impression of Grandma Liu. Last time her grandson got married, she sent a lot of red dates, peanuts, and wedding candies to her family. It was obvious that she put a lot of thought into it.
Grandma Liu was a little embarrassed: "It's that mini sewing machine you asked me to bring last time. Can you help me get another one?"
"It's all my fault. I didn't tell her well. My granddaughter-in-law is such a big mouth that she let it all out. Now one of her colleagues wants one for her wedding, and she's been left with no choice but to ask you for help."
"Grandma Liu, what are you talking about? We're all neighbors. You asked me for help because you think highly of me. I'm so happy."
"Come on, let's go inside and talk in detail. It's so windy outside."
Grandma Liu didn't expect that the things that would make her worry so much that her hair turned white could be solved with just a word from Ren Xiaoxiao.
It was a pity that she scolded her disappointing grandson last night and didn't sleep well the whole night.
Grandma Liu didn't act pretentiously and hurriedly followed him into the house.
Su Xiaoxiao pulled a chair and asked her to sit at the table, and made her a cup of sugar water.
Grandma Liu was even more moved. Look at this girl Ren Xiaoxiao. She is not only capable but also generous. She is not like some people who don't even know their own last name after becoming a little capable.
"Grandma, please check when you need that sewing machine. I'll ask my relatives."
"Any time is fine. She's not in a hurry. I'm really sorry to bother you, Xiaoxiao."
Grandma Liu started taking money out of her pocket: "Xiaoxiao, here's the money, count it."
Su Xiaoxiao understood that brothers should settle accounts clearly. She took the money and counted it, but found that the amount seemed wrong.
