Chapter 74 Chapter 74 Department Store
Han Lin got up very early, but he did not delay his work just because he wanted to see Yang Dai.
His first stop was the department store. Instead of going straight to the leader's office, he shopped in the department store like a normal customer.
Today is a weekday, but the department store is still packed with people. Every counter is full of people, and the crowds are constantly pushing forward.
Han Lin walked through the crowd and finally reached the counter selling candy and snacks.
No matter how good the pastries from a food factory are, it is impossible for them to have a separate counter.
Han Lin took out the ticket he had prepared and bought a box of pastries on the counter.
Then he stepped out of the crowd and walked to the bulletin board near the door.
This is the new rule recently issued by the department store in the capital. The publicity column is roughly divided into two parts.
One part is used to publicize the good deeds that the department store has done recently, and the other part is used to introduce the main staff of the department store, with their titles and photos written on it.
In addition, a small corner has been specially opened with the title of Star of Honor for counter service staff.
If the service staff receives praise from most customers, her name and photo will be posted on the bulletin board as a form of recognition.
The department store originally developed this method in order to improve the attitude of its service staff.
After all, whether it is a department store, a supply and marketing cooperative or a state-owned restaurant, as long as there is a need for service staff, these service staff can be tougher than the customers.
Even though the walls were covered with slogans such as "No beating of customers", it was still useless.
Therefore, the department store leaders came up with a special method of using bulletin boards to praise employees in order to curb this bad practice.
Han Lin took a quick glance and found that the honorary star was named Chen, a man who worked at the camera counter upstairs.
For large items like home appliances, each one is extremely expensive, and the tickets are scarce and the goods are also few, so there are basically no people in front of such counters.
In front of a counter like this, getting praise is both easy and difficult.
Han Lin looked away and suddenly found that the leader listed at the top of the staff column on the propaganda board was also surnamed Chen.
With so many people in the capital, it is not impossible for strangers with the same surname to work in the same department store.
But the salesperson named Chen obviously chose his counter position carefully. If he didn't have connections, ordinary people would not be able to get such a quiet counter.
Han Lin changed his pace and went to the camera counter.
The salesperson named Chen was watching the people coming and going around him with boredom.
Seeing Han Lin coming over, he first glanced at him nonchalantly. After seeing Han Lin's attire clearly, his expression finally became serious and he stood up slightly straighter.
She wanted to smile, but she couldn't do it after curling the corners of her lips, so she just looked at Han Lin.
This floor is basically filled with expensive home appliances. There are not many people at all the counters, and the young people who can work as salespeople here are no longer simply the children of employees. At least they have some backers behind them.
Of course, Han Lin didn't plan to get to know everyone. Some things are more valuable than quantity, and the same goes for making connections.
Han Lin didn't have a camera ticket, but he was young, good-looking, and well-dressed, so it was easy for people to think that he was a young man from a wealthy and favored family.
Han Lin also took advantage of his deliberately disguised identity to start talking to the salesperson named Chen.
Han Lin tried to get closer, and after just a few words, he became familiar with the other party. Han Lin became more certain of the relationship between the other party and the department store leader.
He chatted with the other party for a few more sentences, and before leaving, he placed the cakes he brought next to the salesperson, saying that he and the other party hit it off from the first sight.
In addition, Han Lin also hinted that he also had acquaintances in the aviation department. This sentence seemed to be mentioned unintentionally, and he only said that he was going to the base over there to visit his wife.
However, he was vague about what specific position his wife held there.
People have their own curiosity. The more vague the words are, the more people will suspect that the other party is not willing to explain it too clearly because of their identity.
This point just matches Han Lin's current attire.
It seems that not only is the other party's family well-off, but the wife he marries must also be a capable person of equal status.
Han Lin glanced at the time and didn't stay any longer. He didn't know whether today's trip to the department store would be successful.
But the trip to the air base cannot be delayed either.
Comrade Chen watched Han Lin leave, then looked down at the pastries at hand, took out one of them and tasted a piece. It tasted really good.
Thinking about what Han Lin had just said, he found another colleague to help him cover the shift, while he took the pastries he had just received and went to the leader's office upstairs.
The leader surnamed Chen looked very unhappy when he saw his junior appearing in his office openly during working hours.
"Uncle, I have something serious to tell you." Salesman Chen spoke quickly and handed the pastries to his uncle.
The leader surnamed Chen didn't touch the cakes, his face still grim. "All the people who brought gifts came to you?"
Although the department store where he works is not very famous, it is still a department store in the capital and is very large. Usually, many people want to use their connections to sell the factory's goods in the department store.
But he had always hated such things, and he didn't expect that someone would go directly through his nephew's door.
"Uncle, I'm not that stupid." Salesman Chen paused and continued, "He went to the aviation base to visit his wife, so he came to our department store to buy something. He wanted to bring this cake to his wife. It's said to be a specialty from another place."
"I don't know what his wife's specific position is. Although she hasn't been allocated a room yet, she already lives in a single dormitory." There is no difference between living in a single dormitory and being allocated a room. It was because of this news that the salesperson named Chen came to find his uncle.
Their family was born and raised in the capital. Although most of the family members work in places like department stores, supply and marketing cooperatives or purchasing departments, they have quite a few connections.
So I heard earlier that the aviation department intends to open up recruitment again.
When the aviation department started recruiting for the first time, their family received the news, but it was a little late, and they didn't understand the department at all, so they didn't take any action.
But now everyone knows that it is a good department and everyone is trying their best to get in.
And his cousin, his uncle's biological daughter, had the same idea.
Although he didn't know what the situation was like for Comrade Han's wife in the aviation department, the fact that she could live in a single dormitory must be a little different.
This was the first connection he had ever encountered that came to him on its own initiative. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, he had to make friends with it.
"I understand this matter." After hearing what his nephew said, the leader's expression became calm and he waved his hand to let the person go out.
On the other side, Han Lin, who had gotten back on the bus, was also shaking his head.
After he saw the relationship between the salesperson and the leader, he planned to use the gimmick that the pastries were special pastries for airplanes as stipulated by the aviation department to fool the other party.
But before leaving, I still felt that this method was not very safe.
After all, I haven't reached the aviation department yet, so I have to see it in person before I can say this better.
