After dinner, Lin Mai and Fang Zhuoran went to Fuduoduo Market together and bought a lot of supplements and fruits such as red dates and longan.
The next day, when Fu Qiang's family of three returned to their hometown, Lin Mai gave Fu Qiang's family of three the supplements and fruits they bought from Fuduoduo Market last night.
Fu Qiang and his parents refused to accept anything they said. They always felt that they owed Lin Mai too much and were too embarrassed to accept any more of Lin Mai's things.
Finally, with the persuasion of Grandpa Fang and his wife, the family of three accepted the supplements and fruits with blushing faces.
In addition, Lin Mai also gave Fu Qiang a hundred yuan and asked him to buy some meat for his parents every now and then.
Although his parents' illnesses have all been cured, it will still take some time for them to fully recover.
During the recovery period, eating something nutritious can help you recover faster.
Fuqiang's family of three took a long-distance bus away with full gratitude.
Lin Mai also rode his bicycle to the garment factory and gathered several cadres except Chen Feng for a small meeting.
Chen Feng is a person who does not want to be restrained. He is not interested in sitting around and listening to others speak.
He is only willing to attend one meeting a week. If the other meetings are not related to Wantong Real Estate, he will not attend.
Lin Mai never viewed him as a subordinate or future employee, but as a partner.
He didn't want to attend the meeting except Monday, so she had to leave it to him.
Tao Zhiyun spoke first. She had already contacted the third state-owned garment factory and started processing it yesterday afternoon.
Zheng Xudong said: "I plan to open the Unico clothing chain store during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Can the production volume of your new contract processing clothing factory guarantee the supply of clothing to the chain store?"
Tao Zhiyun nodded: "When I looked for this third clothing factory, I had already considered the clothing needs of the chain stores. It is enough for now."
She smiled and said: "I didn't expect that the Unico clothing chain store would open so soon.
I thought I would have to wait until the National Day to open at the earliest.”
Ren Baozhu and others also said: "I thought so too."
Lin Mai asked: "Have all the Unico clothing chain stores been renovated?"
Zheng Xudong nodded: "It's just whitewashing, laying floor tiles, installing crystal lamps and so on. The decoration is quick, so naturally everything is done.
Not to mention that the Unico clothing chain store has been renovated, even the Baohaochi chain store has been renovated, and I plan to open it during the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Lin Mai nodded: "Alright."
Then he told Ren Baozhu to make a handover with Zheng Xiudong after the meeting, take over the renovated Unico chain stores, and arrange for them to open during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
She is the deputy director of Unique Clothing Factory, so she is naturally responsible for opening a chain store of Unique.
Ren Baozhu said hello, and then told everyone with a happy face that yesterday she customized a signboard for the wholesale store on Hanzheng Street.
When she returned to the factory, salespersons from several stores called her and told her that there was a big incident in the promotion of Ximan Clothing to give away small square scarves purchased from Hong Kong.
Hou Xinyi tapped the table with his fingers and said, "What big thing happened? You said it in one breath."
Ren Baozhu rolled her eyes at him: "Why are you urging me? Isn't that what I'm talking about?"
Then continue on.
It turns out that many consumers bought the Hong Kong handkerchiefs that they received as a gift from Ximan Clothing. After washing them with water, some of them were twisted, and some were simply torn.
It means that these small square scarves made of silk fabric have been stored for too long and have become rotten.
Yesterday afternoon, some consumers came to Seeman with broken handkerchiefs.
However, Seaman said that there was nothing wrong with the small square towels they gave away. It was the consumer who washed them incorrectly, which caused the small square towels to break.
The two sides had a heated argument.
Lin Mai was not very interested in these things. What she cared about was whether anyone would tell reporters about this matter so that they could be interviewed and exposed.
Ren Baozhu said: "This is not the first day that we and Ximan have been fighting openly and secretly.
Everyone from salesperson to salesperson knows how to fight back against Seaman.
When Seaman and consumers accused each other, the store clerk's first reaction was to report the news to the newspaper.
After receiving the news, many reporters immediately went to major stores of Ximan Clothing to conduct interviews.
The interview articles have been published in newspapers today, Mr. Lin, didn’t you see it?”
Fuqiang's family of three was going back to his hometown. In order to arrange a sumptuous breakfast to see them off, Lin Mai was very busy in the morning, so he didn't bother to read the newspaper.
She smiled shyly: "I was too busy this morning and didn't have time to read the newspaper."
Tao Zhiyun pointed at Lin Mai with the pen in his hand: "I have already made all the samples of new clothes for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Remember to take time to take posters."
Lin Mai said hello.
After the meeting, after Ren Baozhu and Zheng Xudong finished handing over the affairs of the Unico clothing chain store, Lin Mai took her to the store they just rented yesterday.
Zheng Xudong acted quickly and had already changed the signboard.
The floor tiles were laid and the walls were painted as required. In short, the whole store gave people a completely new look.
There is no store in this entire street that is of higher quality than hers, and they sell high-end women's clothing at first glance.
Lin Mai told Ren Baozhu to open the business at noon today, and temporarily arranged salespeople from several stores to cover the business for a few days.
Recruit a few more girls who are good at eating, have good tempers, look dignified and beautiful, can speak well, have good figures, and can be guest models as salespersons in wholesale stores.
The requirements for salespersons in the clothing wholesale industry are much higher than those in the clothing retail industry.
Not only must you be beautiful, but you must also be eloquent.
You also need to have a good memory and be able to remember each item of clothing and its corresponding item number.
Customers come to buy goods. If they like any clothing item, the salesperson can immediately find the corresponding item number from the warehouse and deliver it to the customer.
As for having a good figure, a salesperson who sells clothing wholesale has to wear the clothes sold in the store when he goes to work. He is considered a half-display model.
If you are not in good shape, you will not be able to display your body.
Even if the boss who comes to buy goods passes by the store and sees that the clothes worn by the salesperson look good, he is likely to be attracted and come in to buy goods.
This is why we must recruit salespeople with good figures and good looks, just to attract attention.
These are all the experiences Lin Mai brought with him after his rebirth.
In this era, no clothing wholesale store on Hanzheng Street has done this.
Many private stores don't even recruit salespersons, but instead hire their own relatives and friends to be salespersons, for fear that the money will flow to outsiders.
It's hard to describe this kind of salesperson's appearance as beautiful. The key is that his service attitude is very poor. He scolds him whenever he disagrees with him.
Not to mention this life, even in his previous life, Lin Mai particularly hated the attitude of Jiangcheng's service industry.
It is far inferior to those doing business in Guangdong and Jiangsu and Zhejiang. No matter whether the business is successful or not, everyone's face is full of smiles.
Lin Mai remembered a trip to Beihai, Guangxi in his previous life.
There is a street full of pearl jewelry.
Although she was already very rich at that time, haggling over prices when buying things was a woman's pleasure.
So she and her friends went from stall to stall and bargained, and none of the stall owners were angry. They all greeted them with smiles.
If you were a small street vendor in Jiangcheng, if you asked about the same product from the street to the end of the street and tried it, you would probably be beaten by a group of stall owners.
Lin Mai loves Jiang Cheng very much, but she still has to look directly at some shortcomings.
This may be the reason why Han merchants could not compete with Guangdong and Zhejiang merchants.
This is why Lin Mai regards good temper as a second condition when recruiting wholesale store clerks.
After handing over the task, Lin Mai left the store and bought a cup of iced mung bean soup from the Guangxi aunt.
I also bought a Chu newspaper from a mobile newsstand not far away, and drank mung bean soup while reading the newspaper.
The headline of the People's Livelihood section of the newspaper was an article about the dispute between Seaman and consumers over inferior handkerchiefs.
The article said that those small square towels had been taken by the industrial and commercial department for inspection to see if there were any quality problems.
If there are quality problems, Ximan Clothing will be ordered to compensate consumers.
Lin Mai's lips curled up slightly and he continued to read the newspaper.
The last page of the newspaper published a letter of apology from Guan Yonghua to Lin Mai and Unique Clothing.
The smile at the corner of Lin Mai's mouth became even wider.
After drinking the mung bean soup, she bought all the newspapers from her grandfather.
But the newspaper seller was so happy that he helped her deliver the newspaper to the store with considerate service.
Ren Baozhu had just written the recruitment notice and posted it at the door of the store. When she saw her coming back from buying so many newspapers, she asked in surprise: "Why did you buy so many newspapers?"
Lin Mai pursed his lips and smiled evilly: "Of course it's to disgust Ximan opposite!"
She deliberately chose the page where the article about the dispute between Seaman and consumers was published, and the page where Guan Yonghua's letter of apology was posted at the door of her store.
Yesterday, as soon as Lin Mai and Ren Baozhu rented the Lihua Stationery Store, they were targeted by Gao Zhiyuan's men.
Therefore, I have been paying close attention to Unique's every move.
When Lin Mai was posting a newspaper at the door of the store, one of Boss Gao's men came over slowly.
Seeing that all Lin Mai posted were scandals about Ximan, he immediately became angry.
He pointed at Lin Mai's nose and shouted: "Tear up all these newspapers immediately, or don't blame me for being rude!"
Lin Mai was not afraid at all, tilting his head and squinting at her: "I won't tear it apart! I want to see how you can be rude to me."
Ren Baozhu was afraid that Lin Mai would suffer a loss, but he didn't show it on his face.
Rolling his eyes, he bluffingly said to Boss Gao's men: "We have some background in daring to mess with Hanzheng Street. I advise you not to kick yourself on the iron plate!"
Boss Gao's men looked at Lin Mai and Ren Baozhu suspiciously, but finally did not dare to take action.
In a short period of time, Unique was able to not only establish a firm foothold in Jiangcheng, but also gain a reputation. He was also worried that the two women had a high background.
Otherwise, how can we do better than Hong Kong-funded Ximan Clothing.
He didn't dare to do anything to Lin Mai and Ren Baozhu, and he couldn't stop Lin Mai's actions, but he could tear up those newspapers.
Boss Gao's men were about to tear up the newspaper when they were stopped by Lin Mai.
She looked like "I'm not someone to be trifled with": "Tear up my newspaper and give it a try. I'll report it to the secretary of the Provincial Party Committee immediately, and you'll reap the rewards!
You go and find out, last time all the shopping malls in Jiangcheng tried to kick my Unique out, why did they not dare to kick it out in the end?"
Ren Baozhu smiled and praised: "That's because with the help of the provincial party committee secretary, those shopping malls don't dare to bully us Unique."
After hearing this, Boss Gao's men became more and more afraid to act rashly, but they were unwilling to do so.
Accused: "If you post these at the entrance of the store, it will have a negative impact on Ximan Clothing.
Even if the secretary of the provincial party committee comes, he still has to be reasonable."
Lin Mai looked surprised and said: "Both these two articles were published in newspapers, and the contents inside were not made up by us.
If you really want to cause adverse effects, go to the newspaper and ask them not to publish it. Why are you looking for me?
It's a pity that what other newspapers report is all true, so it's useless for you to go to the newspaper.
Although these two articles have had a negative impact on you, Ximan, aren’t you bringing this upon yourself?”
Boss Gao's men were speechless and had no choice but to call Boss Gao and tell him about the incident.
Boss Gao had nothing to do after hearing this.
Lin Mai posted a newspaper in front of her store. Even if the content on it had a great impact on Ximan Clothing, which he represented, it was neither slander nor frame-up. What could he do to Lin Mai!
Since it's not possible to do it openly, then it's better to do it darkly.
