Jianshu listened silently. In just over two months, the furniture factory went from being on the verge of bankruptcy to thriving today.
Sometimes people in the factory couldn’t help but feel a little dazed. Did they really have such a hard time in the past?
When Mei Han returned to Beijing to report on her work, she couldn't help but feel proud when she heard Mei's father express his admiration and gratitude to the store manager.
That’s right, their store manager is that awesome!
Although Jianshu has many titles now, Mei Han still likes to call her store manager. She will never forget that it was the store manager who gave her a job when she was in the most difficult time.
She will never forget the time she spent working at the clothing store. Even though she was later transferred to another location and is now the general manager in charge of the East China region, the thing she will never forget the most is the main store where she worked.
It's special there, it's where it all began.
"Manager!" Mei Han couldn't help but shout after the meeting.
Jian Shu looked up, smiled and waved at her, looking her up and down, "You've grown up and become more mature."
After several years of experience, Mei Han has become more and more capable and confident. The young girl who was once a little immature has now become able to stand on her own and has been completely transformed.
"It's all thanks to the store manager's cultivation!" Mei Han smiled shyly as before.
"It depends on your own efforts." Jian Shu patted her shoulder. "Well, you finally came back. Come have a meal with me and we can have a good chat."
"good."
The two got up and walked out.
"How have you been these past two years? Have you encountered any problems at work?" Jianshu handed her the menu.
Mei Han took it generously and ordered several of the restaurant's signature dishes according to their tastes.
Now she is no longer intimidated by the high prices on the menu.
Two years have changed a lot of people.
"There are definitely difficulties, but we can overcome them. With the help of Brother Peng and the others, as well as the connections you left behind, we will gradually get through this." Mei Han said with a smile.
How could there not be any difficulties? When I first arrived, I couldn’t understand the Shanghai dialect, so communication was always a challenge.
When the newly recruited employees saw that she was from another place, they had ulterior motives and contacted her privately, trying to sideline her.
Other clothing stores were jealous of their business and deliberately recruited people to cause trouble. The warehouse where the clothes were stored was almost burned down...
So many times. During the most difficult time, she gathered her energy to deal with those who were deliberately causing trouble, but as soon as she returned to the dormitory, she couldn't help but buried her head in her pillow and cried out loud.
But the next day, I still washed my face and went out full of energy.
But she never talked about these things, they are all in the past. These setbacks will only become stepping stones on her road to success, making her stronger.
A hint of understanding flashed across Jianshu's eyes. It was not as easy as she said.
When her first clothing store opened, it quickly became a hit, and it wasn't without its share of jealousy. However, her identity wasn't a secret, and those with connections didn't dare resort to such shady tactics.
As for those who knew nothing, they were just playing tricks. With the security team watching over them, those with bad intentions were basically dealt with before they could even get to her.
But even so, for a period of time, the number of pickpockets in the store increased several times.
As for which ones were real thieves and which ones had ulterior motives, she didn't bother to tell them apart because there was no need.
This was the case in Beijing, not to mention Shanghai. It was too far away for her to reach. Even with her connections, Mei Han and the others would still face many more difficulties.
However, Mei Han refused to say it, and she would not expose it. She would just remember all the efforts in her heart.
Not wanting to talk about this anymore, Mei Han smiled and changed the subject, "Manager, how are you? How have you been these past two years? I heard from my dad that the furniture factory is doing very well, and he even asked me to convey his thanks. If it weren't for you, the old employees of the furniture factory wouldn't be living the good life they do today."
Before Jianshu took over, the furniture factory had almost no money on its books. If it had not been transferred in time, even the workers' wages might not have been paid on time.
It could be said that the furniture factory was on the brink of collapse. The more than one hundred employees were inextricably tied to the factory. Many were the breadwinners of their families, supporting over a hundred families.
Jian Shu waved his hand. "You're welcome. Since I've taken over the furniture factory, I naturally have to devote myself to it. What's more, I get more profit from it."
There is really no need to say thank you. She and the employees in the factory have an employment relationship. She pays and they work for her. It's that simple.
"You are still the same." Mei Han smiled.
…
In mid-October, the furniture factory participated in the Canton Fair. Their main product was a complete set of imitation Ming and Qing dynasty solid wood furniture, meticulously crafted by master craftsmen over two months. From beds, cabinets, tables and chairs to trunks, coffee tables, and more, the complete collection took up most of the exhibition hall.
As soon as you enter the venue, the ancient and charming decoration instantly attracts the attention of many foreign businessmen who love classical culture.
Even Chinese people are attracted by this simple and elegant furniture and come forward to take a closer look.
Anyone who has experienced the beauty of classical sculptures cannot refuse. Many people couldn't help but ask for the price.
A whole set of carved furniture requires a lot of labor and time, so the price cannot be low accordingly.
Depending on the wood craftsmanship, the price of a full set of carved furniture ranges from several thousand to tens of thousands, and the more expensive ones may cost over one hundred thousand.
Everyone paused.
So expensive!
Can it be sold?
The answer is yes.
A businessman from Japan in the crowd stared at the carved furniture in front of him with fascination. He sighed for a long time, "It's a pity that the wood is too ordinary. If they used better materials..."
The sales manager at the side immediately seized the opportunity and said, "Sir, our furniture factory accepts customization. We can choose the right wood, size, style, etc. according to your needs."
As he spoke, he handed over the brochure in his hand and said, "These are all products of our factory. You can take a look. If you don't find what you need, you can also write down your needs and our craftsmen will customize them according to your requirements." Of course, if it is specially customized, the price will be much higher.
The businessman flipped through the booklet in his hand, his eyes showing more and more interest.
After looking through the items, he ordered five sets of carved furniture made of different woods. In addition, he also asked for a lot of separate coffee tables, boxes, pen holders, etc.
The head of the sales department pinched his arm secretly to stay awake while signing the contract with a smile.
After the contract was signed, the deposit was received, and the person was sent away, he burst into laughter three times.
Oh my god, the total price of this order alone is more than 100,000!
