Chapter 376 Beef Dices
As soon as she left, someone knocked on the office door again.
"Come in."
Su Xiaoxiao responded, and the door opened, revealing an unexpected person.
Liu Chunxiang smiled flatteringly: "Manager Su, I wanted to come and talk to you about what we talked about yesterday."
Su Xiaoxiao knew that she was here to confirm her identity, so she didn't point it out: "Sit down."
Liu Chunxiang turned her head and looked around. There was no place to sit in the office except the stool under Su Xiaoxiao's butt. She couldn't let her sit on the floor, right?
She smiled awkwardly: "No, I'm fine standing."
She didn't feel it yesterday, but after knowing that Su Xiaoxiao was really the sales manager, Liu Chunxiang felt uncomfortable all over when standing in front of her.
It felt quite embarrassing, like meeting the homeroom teacher at school.
Seeing that Su Xiaoxiao had remained silent, she took the initiative to start the conversation: "Manager Su, this is what I plan to do..."
Liu Chunxiang carefully repeated her plan.
She planned to give Zhang Yulan a laxative when she got home tonight, so that she would have diarrhea and be unable to go to the department store.
The method is simple and crude.
Department stores have regulations that if employees are absent from work without reason for more than three days, they will be fired directly.
This old woman is quite ruthless.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't say yes or no, she just said, "I don't care how you deal with your family's affairs. In three days, have your daughter come over to report, and I'll help her with the job application."
"That's great, thank you!"
Liu Chunxiang was overjoyed. She reached into her pocket and took out two eggs. "Manager Su, please keep these two eggs. I'll be leaving first."
Putting the eggs on the table, Liu Chunxiang walked away briskly.
After everyone left, Su Xiaoxiao turned around and knocked on the door of the human resources manager.
The two of them are old acquaintances, especially when Xu Cuilan learned that Su Xiaoxiao became a sales manager, her attitude towards her became even more enthusiastic.
A smile appeared on his usually serious face: "Manager Su, congratulations."
"Thanks."
Su Xiaoxiao was not modest and thanked him generously. Sometimes being too modest can be hypocritical.
"Manager Xu, I have something I want to ask you for help."
She did not hold back and told Xu Cuilan everything that happened in Zhang Yulan's family.
If you want someone to help you, you can't be secretive.
Xu Cuilan was also a mother. When she heard that Zhang Yulan's mother-in-law had secretly sold her two children, she immediately slammed the table in anger and said, "Manager Su, don't worry, I will definitely help you with this."
It's just arranging a temporary worker, it's not a big problem.
Su Xiaoxiao felt embarrassed to let him work for nothing, so she took out a bag of diced beef from her bag and handed it over: "Manager Xu, I brought some diced beef from my last business trip, and I've been thinking of sending you some. If you don't mind, keep it for the kids as a snack."
She had long ago changed the packaging of beef granules to brown paper bags.
Xu Cuilan looked at the bag full of beef cubes and felt a little embarrassed. "No matter how much it costs, I'll give it to you. But I can't take your things for free. If this gets out, I'll be in trouble."
"Don't worry, Comrade Zhang is a veteran employee of our store and has always worked diligently. I will definitely help you with this."
Afraid that she would overthink it, Xu Cuilan quickly added.
Su Xiaoxiao put the beef cubes on the table and said, "Manager Xu, this is really not that expensive. When I bought it, they were selling it at a discount price. A big bag costs one yuan."
Xu Cuilan quickly took out some money and gave it to her: "You must take this money, otherwise I can't accept these beef cubes. We can't make mistakes on matters of principle."
Seeing that she insisted, Su Xiaoxiao had no choice but to accept it.
Even so, Xu Cuilan still felt uneasy. "Manager Su, you're kidding me, right? This is real beef, and it's individually packaged. How can it be so cheap?"
Each piece of beef is wrapped in colorful candy paper, which makes it look like it is not cheap.
"It just so happened that I have a relative who works there. There wasn't much left, so they distributed it directly to their internal employees."
Su Xiaoxiao made up a random excuse.
Xu Cuilan felt much more relieved, but she still felt that she had taken advantage of Su Xiaoxiao.
It looks like it weighs at least half a pound.
Fresh beef costs more than one dollar per pound, and beef jerky costs at least a few dollars.
She thought to herself that as long as Su Xiaoxiao needed her help in the future, she would do her best to help.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't know that her casual gift of beef cubes had such a profound impact on Xu Cuilan.
The two exchanged a few more pleasantries before Su Xiaoxiao said goodbye and left.
After the people left, Xu Cuilan was preparing to find a place to hide the beef balls.
This is a rare thing, and it would not be nice if people saw her eating it alone.
Just as she picked up the bag, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
"Cousin, what are you doing?"
The person who came was her cousin Xu Xiaowan, who had just graduated from the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University and was assigned to the city steel plant as secretary to the factory director.
Xu Cuilan was startled by her and patted her chest, gasping for breath: "You scared me! Why didn't you tell me you came in?"
Xu Xiaowan squinted her eyes and saw the brown paper bag in her hand at a glance: "Cousin, what delicious food are you hiding?"
Xu Cuilan listened to her loud voice, her eyebrows twitching: "Close the door first."
"Look how scared you are?"
Xu Xiaowan muttered something, but still closed the door obediently.
“Is this beef jerky?”
When Xu Xiaowan saw clearly what was in the brown paper bag, she was so excited that she was speechless.
"Cousin, when did your department store get this rare thing? Do you still have it? Can you get me two pounds of it?"
"I think you weigh two pounds! Here, here, here, that's all, no more."
Xu Cuilan grabbed a handful and gave it to her with disdain. This handful was full and she didn't keep any of it for herself.
"Our department store doesn't have this rare thing. I bought it from someone else."
Meat is in short supply now, even fresh beef is rare, let alone beef cubes of such good quality.
Xu Xiaowan's eyes lit up immediately: "Who did you buy it from? Tell me, can you? I'll buy some back for my parents to try."
Xu Cuilan was afraid of causing trouble for Su Xiaoxiao, so she grabbed another handful for Xu Xiaowan: "I don't have much on my hand, so don't even think about it. Take these back and eat them."
Xu Xiaowan pouted: "At worst I can add more money. Look at how stingy you are."
Her family is well-off and her salary is not low. She doesn't care much about dressing, but she likes to eat. If she sees something delicious, she will definitely not miss it.
As he was speaking, there was a knock on the office door.
Xu Cuilan hurriedly put the beef cubes away and glanced at Xu Xiaowan: "Hide it well, don't let anyone see it."
After everyone put their things away, they shouted to the outside of the door, "Come in."
The door opened, and the person who came in was none other than Su Xiaoxiao who had just left.
Su Xiaoxiao was on her way back just now. After thinking about it, she felt that giving only one bag was a bit too stingy, so she planned to give Xu Cuilan another bag when she came back.
Just say that you remembered the price wrong, it should be two packs for one dollar.
As soon as I walked in with my things, I saw a strange girl in the room.
Xu Xiaowan caught a glimpse of the familiar brown paper bag in her hand and walked over with her eyes shining.
