Wu Jiangshan talked about this point for more than ten minutes.

Wang Fugui was also asked to play a difficult and picky customer to demonstrate what smile service is and what polite language is.

Among the six people present, some were holding back their laughter, while others were a little indifferent.

Wu Jiangshan doesn't want to find trouble with them now. After the official opening, he will just kick out anyone who can't do it.

"Our mall needs to be renovated. During this period, we cannot operate normally and we also need manpower."

"If anyone is willing to stay and help with the work, I will pay you a salary of 40 yuan per month. If you want to wait until the business opens, you can do it. There will be no salary during the renovation period. Of course, this is also a consideration period for you."

"After the mall opens, it will continue to recruit employees. Let's survive the fittest. Those who don't do well, I'm sorry, I don't need idle people here. Those who do well can get promotions and salary increases."

After Wu Jiangshan finished speaking, Li Dasheng and another man named Liu Dong both expressed their intention to stay and work.

"Boss, when can we open for business?"

"It will take a few months no matter what. Let's try to open it as soon as possible before the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"Ah? It's been half a year?"

"So you should think carefully about whether you want to stay now or wait until before the opening."

The four women looked at each other. It would definitely not be easy to work here, but it was forty yuan a month. Can they find other jobs to earn this money when they go home?

"Boss, what do you do?"

"During the renovation period, the work will definitely be tiring. I will install it in two places at the same time, so you are not necessarily in the mall. You will need to allocate it when the time comes."

"Do you still have any business?" This really surprised them. How much money did the little boss in front of them have? Businesses were opened one after another.

All six people decided to stay, and Wu Jiangshan was very happy.

Firstly, he is indeed short of people, and secondly, if everyone works together to tidy up the mall little by little, it will have a greater sense of belonging in the future...

Starting from the beginning of May, the shopping mall and the nursery began to be renovated. The doors and windows were ordered and made by a furniture factory in the town.

All the walls were repainted, and the floor was resurfaced with cement. Wu Jiangshan decided to sell food seasonings, vegetables, fruits and various daily necessities on the first floor of the mall, and men's and women's clothing and bedding on the second floor.

All open shelves were built to resemble the self-service supermarkets of the future. Wu Jiangshan drew the drawings himself and worked with the town’s furniture factory to determine the specifications.

There is also a cashier. Don’t even think about electronic cashiers at this time. There is not even a computer, it can only be done manually.

After the things to be made in the shopping mall were decided, Wu Jiangshan went to the nursery to customize the wrought iron guardrails and prepare all wooden floors in the house.

Lunch break room, bathroom, tables and chairs, playroom, classroom, everything that can be customized in Hushan, and things that are not available in Hushan, all measured, drawn, and recorded...

After all this work, Wu Jiangshan's broken bicycle also fell apart, and he sold it directly to a repair shop.

Carrying the worn-out denim bag, Wu Jiangshan went to An County and the provincial capital alone to run factories.

This was his first time doing this kind of thing. He went from place to place to look at the products, then asked about prices and discussed the delivery of goods. He knew that he was opening a shopping mall in a small place like Hushan.

Several larger manufacturers didn't take him seriously at all, and sent him away after giving him a phone call to place an order, saying they couldn't deliver the goods.

However, there are a few newly opened factories by individuals, and their attitude is very good. They will give samples without asking and leave their phone numbers.

This is the gap between state-owned and private-owned enterprises after the reform and operation...

The state-owned factory in Wujiangshan didn't care if it got a bad start. He had just started. If he could develop a chain in the future, these manufacturers would come to him on their own initiative without him having to come looking for them.

Therefore, everything is difficult at the beginning, and it will be fine once everything is on track.

Wu Jiangshan kept encouraging himself. When people are incapable, they can only keep their heads down and do things.

At this point, Wu Jiangshan no longer feels angry like a young and energetic boy.

He spent more than ten days in An County alone, visiting food factories, seasoning factories, plastic products factories, school supplies... everything related to life.

He wrote a thick book just by taking phone calls. He was not qualified to negotiate the price, so he had to shop around.

While running outside, I have to call back frequently. The decoration issues of the two places are now left to Wang Fugui, Shen Hongxing and Teacher Liu to help look after them.

The two waiters who went home to help with the farming also called back and asked them to look at the Youth Square.

After running in Anxian, Wu Jiangshan, exhausted, boarded the train to the provincial capital again...

May 23, Xiaoman, is also Mr. Cui’s 69th birthday.

Here in Beibin, when you turn 69, you have to live for 70 years, because there is a folk saying of "doing nine but not ten".

That is to say, if you have a full birthday on the tenth day, you must do it one year in advance, which is also called "doing nine heads".

Mr. Cui was born in the military and does not like extravagance and trouble, so even though he is having a birthday, he does not plan to do it in a big way.

Cui Ruijin persuaded him in every possible way, but in the end Mr. Cui still refused to hold a banquet in a big place. He only set up two tables at home and invited relatives and a few old comrades in the compound to have a meal together.

Xiang Lan also represented the Xiang family and came to the old man's house to wish him a birthday and send him gifts.

Seeing that the woman Xiao Yi was there, Xiang Lan did not stay to eat. He only said that he had to rush back to the army and left in a hurry.

The provincial capital troops were on the outskirts of the city. On their way back to the troops, Xiang Lan saw a man standing on the roadside in front of him, blocking the car. When he drove closer, he saw that it was Wu Jiangshan.

When Wu Jiangshan saw Xiang Lan, he turned around and walked back as if he had seen a ghost. He was carrying a big bag behind him, which looked heavy.

Xiang Lan looked at his back in the reversing mirror, thought for a moment, turned around and went back, drove up to him and followed him slowly.

"Why did you come here?"

Wu Jiangshan said nothing and continued walking, deciding to walk back to the city.

Xiang Lan said with a smile: "You can't get a car here, you want to walk back?"

Wu Jiangshan sighed: "Crazy woman, what do you want to do?"

"I'll take you wherever you go."

"Don't dare, don't bother."

Xiang Lan curled his lips and said, "It's up to you. It will take at least twenty minutes to walk back from here."

Wu Jiangshan was unmoved. Seeing this, Xiang Lan turned around and went back.

Driving to the gate of the army, Xiang Lan sat in the car and thought for a while, then turned back and caught up with Wu Jiangshan, honking the horn wildly behind him.

Wu Jiangshan frowned and stopped: "What on earth do you want to do? We were settled last time, right?"

"Get in the car, I'm in a bad mood today."

"What can you do if you're in a bad mood? I'm in a bad mood too! Get out of here, don't think you can beat me."

Wu Jiangshan was angry at the blanket factory just now, and now he was provoked by the crazy woman.

At that moment, regardless of whether he was the opponent of this crazy woman, he got angry.

Seeing him like this, Xiang Lan smiled instead: "Hey, you are in a bad mood too? That's good, let's have a fight?"
