Liu Yuning quickly arranged for Gu Yao to transfer to the school.
Wait until school starts in September, and then you can move up to the third year of high school with this class of second-year students.
Everyone in the family soon knew that Gu Yao was going to school.
Meng Zhen compiled a copy of the study notes that he and his third brother had printed before and gave it to her.
"Sister-in-law, these are the notes for each subject. They cover the basic knowledge points and key points. You can read them slowly in conjunction with the high school textbook. If you don't understand something, you can always ask us. Of course, it's best to ask big brother, he's more capable than us."
Meng Zhen recalled the scene of Liu Yuzhou tutoring him.
My eldest brother and his wife had just gotten married, so of course the tutoring opportunity had to be given to my eldest brother.
Gu Yao looked at the half-person-high stack of review materials in front of her with some surprise: "You compiled all these notes yourself?"
No wonder they were able to get into Capital University.
How long will it take to turn a few thin textbooks into thick notebooks?
Meng Zhen said, "When we were preparing for the college entrance exam, we only had a junior high school diploma. We had barely learned any of the high school material. To catch up, we had to work harder than everyone else."
"But don't worry, sister-in-law. We have the blessing of Wenquxing in our family. You will definitely be able to successfully enter university!"
Gu Yao was amused and laughed, and her mood relaxed a little.
Her younger brother's wife and third brother were in the same situation as her. They were all able to get into Capital University through hard work.
There are so many excellent people around me who I can ask for advice. As long as I work hard enough, I should be able to pass the exam, right?
Gu Yao instantly gained confidence in herself.
There are still several months until school starts in September, and Gu Yao only has the three hundred yuan she stole from Wang Jianshe.
Liu Yuning had given her a passbook before, allowing her to withdraw money at will.
But the two had just met, and Gu Yao didn't feel comfortable spending a man's money.
She still wants to make money with her own abilities.
So I want to use this period before school starts to earn some living expenses.
After school starts, you have to devote all your energy to studying and you definitely won’t have time to think about making money.
Gu Yao has no friends in the capital, and her cousin has ulterior motives, so the only person of the same sex she is most familiar with is Meng Zhen.
It happened that Meng Zhen was free today, so she thought of asking him about business matters.
"Sister-in-law, I want to start a small business on my own. I don't have much capital, and I don't have any particularly good ideas. You are experienced and have a broad vision. I would like to hear your advice."
Meng Zhen now runs three stores in the capital at the same time, and he has to go to school during the day, so he is short of staff.
When I heard that my sister-in-law wanted to do business, my eyes immediately lit up!
"Sister-in-law, why don't you come work in my store? I'm in need of a pretty salesperson like you!"
"The salespeople in my store are different from those in ordinary stores. In my store, the salary is a minimum wage plus commission. The minimum wage is 30 yuan per month, and for every item sold, the salesperson can get 5% of the price as commission."
Gu Yao became interested and thought that it would be better to find a ready-made job than to start her own business.
She was surprised and said, "Doesn't that mean the more you sell, the higher your salary will be?"
Meng Zhen: "Of course. Most of the items in my store are priced over 100 yuan. For each transaction, I can get at least 5 yuan in commission. If you sell 10 items in a month, you will get 50 yuan. Adding the base salary, it will be 80 yuan."
Eighty yuan is higher than the salary of ordinary employees in some units.
Seeing that Gu Yao was already moved, Meng Zhen continued to persuade:
"Sister-in-law, running your own business requires a lot of time and capital, but once school starts, you'll have to devote yourself to studying and won't have time to take care of business matters. So why don't you come work in my store? You can earn money and study at the same time."
"When you get into university, you can consider your major and decide how you want to develop in the future. Whether you want to start a business or join a company, it's all up to you."
Meng Zhen's words came from the heart.
She could understand Gu Yao's desire to earn money on her own and not rely on men.
So the suggestions given are very practical.
Gu Yao nodded in agreement: "Sister-in-law, you make sense! Then I will go to work in your store, earn some living expenses before school starts, and then study hard."
"Okay, let's go to the store together tomorrow!"
Meng Zhenbai was very happy that he had picked up such a beautiful salesperson.
****
The next day, Meng Zhen took Gu Yao to a luggage store in Xicheng.
She changed into the store's work clothes and took another set for Gu Yao: "Sister-in-law, this is the uniform. Put it on first, and then I will show you how to sell the goods."
Good looks are important, but skilled sales skills are also essential.
The style of the uniforms in the store is the same as that of luxury goods store clerks in later generations.
A tight-fitting suit, paired with a pair of ultra-thin black stockings and a pair of high heels.
It was the first time that Gu Yao wore clothes that were the perfect size, and she also wore leather shoes with heels, so she felt a little shaky when she walked.
But when she changed her clothes and walked out, all the sales staff in the store looked at her in amazement.
Oh my god, where did the boss find this little goblin?!
With a charming and seductive face, a slim waist and long legs, she is simply a beauty.
The last person who amazed them so much was the boss himself.
Gu Yao felt a little embarrassed being stared at by everyone. Her cheeks flushed as she lowered her head and tugged at the hem of her skirt.
Fortunately, all the sales staff in the store dressed like this, and they were all very pretty, so Gu Yao quickly adapted.
Meng Zhen introduced everyone, "This is Comrade Gu Yao. She will be responsible for the sales of the men's luggage area together with Xiao Tao from now on."
Then he turned to Gu Yao and said, "Today is your first day at work, so get used to the environment first. I will guide you for a few days and teach you how to sell goods."
The brand positioning of the luggage store is high-end luxury.
The street where the store is located has both foreign companies specializing in imported goods and foreign restaurants. It is only a few hundred meters away from diplomatic units and embassies of various countries.
There are many customers with purchasing power.
Just then, a middle-aged male customer wearing glasses came in.
Meng Zhen brought Gu Yao to receive the guests.
After the middle-aged man entered the store, he looked around and it was obvious that it was his first time in the store.
Meng Zhen, with a warm smile on his face, took the initiative to ask, "Welcome, sir, is this your first time in our store? Would you like to buy men's or women's bags?"
The middle-aged man looked at Meng Zhen, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
It was the first time I met such a beautiful salesperson, and her attitude immediately became warm.
The man smiled gentlemanly: "Well, I work at the Department of Foreign Affairs next door. I saw a new store opened here, so I came in to take a look."
This means roughly equivalent to "strolling around casually", and usually there is no strong desire to buy.
Meng Zhen's smile remained unchanged: "Okay, then you can go shopping first. If you need anything, feel free to call me."
That's it, you go shopping first, I won't waste my time on you.
