"That's just how he is; once he finds something interesting, he can't stop."
When Du Qiang saw his old friend in this state, he knew things were in good shape.
He pulled Xia Lan aside.
"Sister-in-law, don't let Ma Sheng's lame leg fool you. He's a well-known capable man in our army. He can build houses all by himself. He's an absolute expert."
"Thank you for going to the trouble of inviting people over for me."
Xia Lan said gratefully, regardless of what kind of person Du Qiang was, she would remember his kindness.
"Oh! I almost forgot, my older brother asked me to give this to you!"
Du Qiang laughed heartily, then suddenly remembered something and took out a letter from his clothes and handed it to Xia Lan.
Xia Lan's eyes lit up instantly when she heard that it was sent to her by Qin Yu.
"I can achieve the results you're looking for, but you have to let me take full responsibility!"
Xia Lan put away Qin Yu's letter, and Ma Sheng walked over, saying confidently.
Are you sure you can achieve the effect I want?
Xia Lan looked at Ma Sheng, who smiled confidently.
"There's no house that I, Ma Sheng, can't build."
Ma Sheng patted his chest confidently.
"Okay, I trust you! I'll leave it to you then!"
Xia Lan smiled at Ma Sheng.
"I'll hire another team of workers to help you."
Ma Sheng glanced at Xia Lan gratefully; it was indeed unlikely he could do it on his own.
"If you need to hire more people, could you please ask my team?"
Ma Sheng felt a little embarrassed, but thinking of his brothers, he mustered up his courage.
"Although they are somewhat incomplete, their craftsmanship is absolutely top-notch! And they are never careless in their work."
Xia Lan understood immediately.
"Of course! I'd love to!"
Xia Lan nodded seriously and agreed to Ma Sheng's request.
"Thank you, thank you."
Ma Sheng gave Xia Lan a grateful look.
Du Qiang patted Ma Sheng on the shoulder.
"Sister-in-law, I've delivered the person to you, so I'll head back to work now!"
"Thank you for your help, Qiangzi."
Xia Lan saw Du Qiang out, and as she reached the door, she saw Xiao Ling approaching with several people.
“Lanlan…”
Xiaoling looked at Xia Lan, her expression reserved and cautious.
When everyone learned that Xia Lan had taken over the department store, they were happy but also had mixed feelings.
They were happy because Xia Lan was someone they knew, and she would definitely not treat them unfairly.
The situation is complicated because Xia Lan is someone they know. Originally, she was just like them, but now she has transformed into their leader.
It's hard to describe the feeling.
"Xiaoling, what brings you all here?"
Xia Lan saw Xiao Ling and the others and warmly pulled them inside.
"Look, it's all empty now. Once they finish decorating, you'll be working here."
Xia Lan's initiative greatly eased their cautiousness.
She still has the same attitude as before.
Nothing has changed.
Xiaoling and the others smiled broadly.
"What do you want to do? Is there anything we can help you with? We can help you with anything!"
Xu Li, who was standing to the side, looked at Xia Lan.
"Yes, we can all help!"
"Just call us if you need anything!"
The others quickly echoed, saying that none of them wanted to lose their jobs.
Xia Lan smiled at them and pointed to Ma Sheng, who was intently studying the blueprints.
"This is our decorator; I've entrusted the entire renovation to him."
Xia Lan pointed at Ma Sheng, and the others were stunned when they saw Ma Sheng's leg.
Xia Lan looked at them and saw that they smiled at Ma Sheng and did not lift Ma Sheng's leg.
Even Xu Li, who is usually very talkative, didn't say anything.
"Let's leave this to him and go!"
Xia Lan smiled at Xiao Ling and the others.
"I happen to need to talk to you about something."
Xiaoling and the others were stunned.
Looking for us?
What's wrong?
Xiaoling also looked somewhat surprised.
Xia Lan led them to the state-run restaurant and invited them to sit down.
"Regarding this store, I have a new collaboration idea and would like to ask for your opinion."
"you say?"
Xiaoling didn't understand. Wasn't it just working for Xia Lan?
Do you receive a monthly salary?
Everyone looked at Xia Lan.
Xia Lan ordered a few dishes first, and then slowly began to speak.
"I will give you two cooperation models to choose from! One is the same as before, with a fixed salary of about thirty yuan per month."
The group exchanged bewildered glances; this was a familiar sight to them, and there was little commotion.
They were more curious about the other one.
Xia Lan took a sip of tea and continued.
"The other option is a base salary plus commission. How much you earn each month depends entirely on your performance."
"What do you mean? I don't quite understand?"
"This...this...does this mean that you get paid for more work?"
"I think so?"
"Could you tell us more about it?"
The group looked at Xia Lan and said eagerly.
"For example, if the base salary is ten yuan, and you sell ten pieces of clothing within a month, and those clothes are priced at ten yuan, then you can get two yuan. If you sell ten pieces of clothing, you can get twenty yuan."
Xia Lan explained to them.
"If you can only sell two items a month, won't you only get fourteen yuan?"
"Oh? How come it's like this? No, no, I'll choose the thirty-yuan one then!"
As soon as Xia Lan finished speaking, the others felt that this method was not good and that it would be better to stick to a fixed method.
"Wait a minute! Why are you only thinking about whether they'll sell? What if they do sell, and sell a lot?"
