Chapter 264
When Qin Xiang saw He Chenghua, her first reaction was to ask him to get out.
However, Meng Huaiqing held her hand and said, "Guests are welcome. This is a great day for the start of business. Don't let people like this make you unhappy. We'll have someone entertain you when you come."
Qin Xiang glanced at him and felt that his skills were still far behind Meng Huaiqing's.
She nodded, turned around, and called out into the exhibition hall. Mi Hongjun hurried out. Seeing He Chenghua, he understood most of what was going on. Catching their gazes, he went over to them. "Hello, boss! Are you here to take a look and place an order?"
He Chenghua, clutching a helmet, wore jeans and a floral shirt. His hair was permed and shoulder-length. Combined with his typically rebellious face, he was quite attractive standing there.
His temperament was completely different from his previous military image. No one would have thought that this man had once been a battalion commander.
Qin Xiang sighed inwardly. He Chenghua was already approaching.
Meng Huaiqing completely ignored him and said to Qin Xiang with a smile, "Let's go."
Qin Xiang nodded, and the two of them left.
He Chenghua stood there with a majestic look on his face and said, "Wait a moment."
Qin Xiang turned around and looked at him. "Boss He, what's going on?"
He Chenghua said with a gloomy face and a half-smile, "Is this how you treat guests when they come to your house?"
"I think having the factory's deputy director in charge of sales and production come to entertain you is already our greatest sincerity. If Boss He is still not satisfied, then we can't force it."
After saying this, Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing left.
He Chenghua stood there with a gloomy expression on his face.
He thought he had made some achievements, but he couldn't see it.
No matter which way he walked, she would never look at him.
He Chenghua felt frustrated for a moment.
For her, he gave up his original future, and for her, he turned against his family.
But it seems that nothing is of any use.
He really couldn't understand why Meng Huaiqing was better than him except that he was richer.
Watching the two men get on the motorcycle and leave quickly, He Chenghua threw the helmet in his hand hard to the ground.
"Boss He, are you still coming in for a visit?" Mi Hongjun cursed the man in his heart from beginning to end, but still had a decent smile on his face.
He Chenghua glanced at him, pursed his lips, and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, "Look."
Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing rode away on their bikes and headed back to the capital.
When they got home, they were already sweating. After taking a shower, they came out and found that the chef team was already preparing dinner.
Qin Xiang said, "Let's have dinner in the yard."
The wisteria is growing well and has climbed up half of the trellis. I thought the grape plant at the base of the wall was dead, but it sprouted new buds this year and now has two bunches of fruit.
Meng Huaiqing nodded, "Okay."
The dinner was very sumptuous. In Meng Huaiqing's words, it was a celebration of today's production.
It was very pleasant to have a glass of red wine each and eat delicious food.
The summer evening breeze was not cool, so the two had to take another bath after dinner.
Some unspeakable things happened afterwards.
Afterwards, the two talked about their future arrangements. Meng Huaiqing wanted to go to Pengcheng, while Qin Xiang wanted to go to Gangcheng.
Meng Huaiqing then asked, "Want to go together?"
Qin Xiang nodded, "Let's go together."
It is more convenient to go there from Pengcheng.
She hesitated for a moment, "But I'll only be there for a few days, and I'll be back after I'm done with it."
Meng Huaiqing was a little curious. "What are you going to do there? Can't you just make a stock call?"
Qin Xiang said, "Buy a house."
"Huh?" Meng Huaiqing was puzzled. "I have quite a few properties there."
Qin Xiang raised an eyebrow, "That's yours. I want to buy myself a house. We'll live there when we go to Gangcheng. I'll support you."
Meng Huaiqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You're still addicted."
Qin Xiang explained seriously, "I bought it and hoarded it so that I can make money from the people in Hong Kong in the future."
Gangcheng is too small and land is very expensive. A house of 100 square meters is considered a luxury house. She also wants to buy a luxury house. Whether she lives there occasionally or uses it as a base for their factory in Gangcheng, it will be a good choice.
She added, "I plan to bring a designer with me this time."
This was a decision she had made recently, to take Fei Qing with her to learn about the fashion of Hong Kong so that she could serve her better when she came back.
If you want to gain something, you must pay something. She is not worried that people will leave after learning well. People with such a mindset will leave no matter what she does. She took the training and learned well, so that at least they can better serve her and create more designs before leaving.
Qin Xiang prefers to hire newly graduated designers because they are still fresh-faced, learning, and willing to adapt. Experienced designers at some factories, on the other hand, tend to be stuck in their ways, living in their own world and unwilling to adapt to market trends.
It is not shameful to cater to the market. When it comes to business, this is what she has always told the three designers.
Meng Huaiqing frowned slightly, "I thought it was just the two of us on this trip."
Qin Xiang was speechless when she heard the grievance in his voice. "But we never go out just by ourselves. You go out with a bunch of bodyguards and assistants, isn't it the same? It's no big deal for me to bring a designer with me."
Meng Huaiqing retorted, "That's different."
"It's the same." Qin Xiang said, "Just let her follow behind."
This was her compromise with Meng Huaiqing. She knew that Meng Huaiqing cared a lot about the time they spent alone together.
Sometimes she wondered if Meng Huaiqing was too clingy, but that only seemed to be the case when they were together. How much time could they spend together in a year?
Forget it, he’s your own man, just pamper him yourself.
Her gaze was too obvious, and Meng Huaiqing was helpless. "What are you fantasizing about?"
Qin Xiang raised her eyebrows. "I imagined you would hug my arm and act like a spoiled wife, asking me to take you with me and not the other sisters."
It was just a casual remark, but I didn't expect that when I really thought about it, it was quite interesting. I couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Meng Huaiqing was helpless, "You just want to see me make a fool of myself."
Qin Xiang resolutely refused to admit it. She put her hands on the stone table and raised her hand to pick up his chin. "Come on, smile for me."
I was just teasing him and didn't expect Meng Huaiqing to really cooperate. Unexpectedly, Meng Huaiqing was stunned for a moment, and then a shy and happy smile appeared on his face.
Qin Xiang's heart beat rapidly twice, almost jumping out of his chest.
A strange feeling flooded my body.
Qin Xiang swallowed and said in a hoarse voice, "Meng Huaiqing, you look like a goblin now."
Meng Yaojing smiled shyly again, and her face made Qin Xiang feel itchy, "A Xiang..."
The voice was so lingering that Qin Xiang's heart trembled even more violently.
She raised her finger and said, "Come, come to your sister."
I'm addicted to acting, especially playing the role-swapping game with a big shot like Meng Huaiqing, it's really interesting.
Meng Huaiqing stood up, walked to Qin Xiang, sat on her legs, hooked his arms around her neck, and smiled, "Sister, what else do you want?"
Qin Xiang didn't want to do anything, she just wanted to get rid of this man now.
Why is there such a man in this world who can be a feared boss and also a seductive little devil?
How could she control herself from this?
So the two of them did it again in front of the stone table, this time Qin Xiang took the lead.
Later, Qin Xiang was tired and sleepy, and didn't want to be the boss anymore, so she took a bath in her husband's arms.
I slept until dawn.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Meng Huaiqing was about to go out. Qin Xiang rode her stylish motorcycle to the factory. The factory accountant, Sister Xu, had already compiled the deposits collected yesterday, and the sales department had also brought over the quantity of yesterday's orders.
Mi Hongjun said, "They have already started production in the workshop, and the first batch of goods will be ready in five days."
Qin Xiang nodded, very satisfied with the first day's data. "Have the workers work in two shifts to speed up production. Tell the canteen to make better meals and make them more nutritious. Also tell the workers that we have just started production, so everyone should work harder."
Hearing this, Mi Hongjun laughed. "Even if I don't say anything, everyone's enthusiasm is very high. They get commissions by the piece, and they wish they could be here 24 hours a day to make money. How could they not work hard?"
Qin Xiang also smiled, "But we still have to ensure quality. We've made it clear to them that the number of defective products per person per month must be within a reasonable range, otherwise money will be deducted from their wages based on the cost price. I'm planning to have Miao Xiaofeng return to handle quality inspection. She's brought the people she led over there, and Xiang Yanghong's responsibility will be gradually handed over to others."
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it before that." Mi Hongjun is now the deputy factory director and is full of energy.
Where can you find a factory director who is only 20 years old?
Qin Xiang then went to the design department again. Three young designers and Zhao Wenna were all busy. Two of them were concentrating on drawing, and one was operating a sewing machine to make samples.
Even though he is a gay, he is as good as a lesbian in operating a sewing machine and his workmanship is also good.
Qin Xiang gathered the three of them together and told them about the upcoming trip to Gangcheng. She also mentioned taking Fei Qing with her. "I'll come according to the time you started working. I'll take Fei Qing with me this time, and I'll take you with me next time."
This is the fairest way, and Zhao Guicheng and Zhang Nan have no objection.
They were envious when they heard that Qin Xiang went to Gangcheng, but they didn’t expect that they would have the opportunity to go there now.
Although they have to wait, the boss’ boyfriend is from Hong Kong, so they will definitely have the opportunity to go there in the future.
Fei Qing was very happy to be chosen first, "I can really go."
"Of course. After you get your documents, come with me to the city to handle the paperwork. We'll have to leave in a few days."
The procedures for going to the port city are more complicated, but special cases are handled specially, so it is not impossible to complete it in a few days.
Qin Xiang went to the carriage to take a look, and before leaving, she took Fei Qing back to handle the formalities.
Zhao Guicheng and Zhang Nan said, "I think the decision we made might be the right one."
When they decided to resign and come to Qin Xiang, not only their parents couldn't accept it, but even the people in their unit found it unbelievable.
There are people who actually give up good jobs with stable incomes and go to work in private factories.
You should know that the companies that graduates from Tsinghua University go to are all very good companies. It is hard to say whether they will go bankrupt in the future, but for now, they are fine.
But they just resigned because they didn't want to be there serving tea and water all day.
Although they were a bit nervous about joining a private company, Qin Xiang did give them a lot of room to develop their ideas. As long as it fit the Xianglian brand, they could design anything they wanted. And once they finished their designs, Qin Xiang would take the time to discuss any inappropriate areas and how to adjust them. Besides being able to leverage their strengths, they also learned a lot.
Now they are also provided with opportunities to study abroad.
Nowadays, the clothing trends in mainland China are all learning from Hong Kong, so going to Hong Kong to study is indeed the best choice.
They glanced at the various magazines on the bookshelf in the corner, and Zhang Nan smiled and said, "That's correct."
It’s not that fast to get to the port city, and there are various procedures and preparations to be done.
After five days, the procedures were completed and Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing were ready to set off.
There were still a few days before the customs clearance, and Qin Xiang decided to take a ride and inspect her branches along the way. Although time was a bit tight, she could visit as many as she could and do some random checks to see if there were any problems.
When there were only a few branches, the staff was manageable, but when there were too many people, it was inevitable that they would be overwhelmed. Even Tan Xiu could not guarantee that the branch staff and store managers would not have any problems.
So before, He Liping would bring an accountant to check the accounts once every month.
This time Qin Xiang came to check the accounts in person.
It was noon when Qin Xiang went to the first store. He checked the account books and inventory and left when he found no problems. Unexpectedly, he found problems when he went to the second store.
They went there in a hurry and without prior notice, and then Qin Xiang found that there were a lot of unfamiliar clothes in the store.
As the boss, all goods, whether from Xiangyanghong or Yimei, will be approved by her, so no one knows the styles better than her.
But she clearly saw that the shelves were full of unfamiliar clothes.
The quality is average, the style is nice, but not exquisite, and looks more like a knockoff on the market.
Qin Xiang was extremely annoyed. The store manager was a young woman in her twenties named Yu Lian. Qin Xiang had a vague impression of her; she was one of the first people to follow Tan Xiunan to develop new stores. Back then, the young woman was hardworking and capable, diligently learning how to do things well, gradually climbing the ranks from clerk to store manager. But this hardworking and ambitious girl had taught her a lesson.
You really can't judge a person by his appearance. Qin Xiang thought she was very good to her employees. She would give them money as much as possible when she could, and would never give them flashy things.
But there are still people who do this kind of thing.
Qin Xiang laughed angrily, "How long has it been sold?"
Yu Lian opened her mouth, not knowing how to explain.
Qin Xiang asked the two shop assistants, "How long has it been, you two?"
One of the younger students said timidly, "Yes, more than two months."
Qin Xiang looked at Yu Lian, "How much profit?"
As a result, Yu Lian knelt down in front of Qin Xiang.
Qin Xiang was furious, "Yu Lian, what are you doing? Get up!"
Fortunately, it was noon and no one was in the store. Fei Qing was very perceptive and went over to close the door and draw the curtains to block the view from outside.
Qin Xiang sneered, "Why, now you want to tell me how difficult your family is, how much you need money, and how helpless you are?"
Yu Lian burst into tears, "I have no choice. My family is forcing me to do this. I really have no choice..."
She tried to defend herself feebly, but she knew that this matter was irreversible. She looked up at Qin Xiang and said, "Boss, please fire me. I'll give you all the money, okay? Please, I can't lose this job."
Qin Xiang remained unmoved. She looked at the clerk and Yu Lian and said, "The three of you have been fired. I believe the money you earned in the past two months is enough for your salary. I will not pay you this month's salary. I will not ask you for compensation. If you feel dissatisfied, you can go to the labor department to complain about me."
After saying that, she asked Fei Qing to take out a pen and paper to write a letter of apology and sign her name.
Yu Lian didn't want to write, so Qin Xiang said, "Okay, I'll ask the police to come over now."
"I wrote."
Yu Lian's behavior was serious, and she herself was not sure whether the police would take action on such behavior, so she hurriedly wrote a letter of apology and signed her name.
The two shop assistants were a little unwilling and begged, "Boss, we were also forced by Yu Lian. Please don't fire us. Really, if she gives us a little bit, we will return all the money to you, okay?"
Qin Xiang laughed angrily, "Do I need that little money? Pack up and leave. Even if I don't open the store, I won't hire people like you who are disloyal."
What she hated most in her life was people who were disloyal to her. She was paid a high salary and received large bonuses during festivals, yet they treated her like this?
Qin Xiang sighed and stood up, watching the three people pack up their things and leave. "Pack your things in the dormitory as well. You are fired."
Give them the termination letter directly and kick them out of the store.
The store door closed directly.
Yu Lian pursed her lips, "Those clothes..."
Qin Xiang paused and looked at her. Yes, she still remembered those clothes. She almost forgot them.
Having Zhao Ping open the door, Yu Lian went over to pack up and came out with the bag. She bowed to Qin Xiang and said, "I'm sorry."
Qin Xiang didn't care about being wronged like this, so she turned around and left.
