Su Xiaoxiao turned her head to look over, and sure enough, she saw Zhang Dongi standing not far away with a mocking expression.
This person is really annoying, why is she everywhere?
"I guess so people didn’t get a chance, feeling envy and jealousy, huh."
Zhang Yulan picked up a piece of clothing and unfolded it as she spoke.
The color was a very formal dark blue, but because the design was stylish, it looked particularly eye-catching.
She picked up the dark blue tailored waist suit, tried it on, and happily twirled in front of everyone.
A passing salesperson was imdiately stunned and looked at her: "Sister Zhang, where did you buy that outfit? It’s really beautiful."
Zhang Dongi sneered: "Looks like a work uniform, what’s so nice about it."
Zhang Yulan couldn’t be bothered to pay any attention to her and picked up the dark blue pleated skirt to compare it against herself.
Tailored waist suit.
The top is a tailored waist suit, the bottom is an A-line pleated skirt, and the skirt length just reaches the knee.
With such a combination, the entire waistline feels elongated, making the figure seem slimr.
Even soone with Zhang Yulan’s slightly chubby figure looked like she’d lost a size wearing it.
Zhang Yulan twirled again happily, imdiately receiving a bunch of complints.
She proudly said, "This is our performance outfit for the year-end party, designed by our Comrade Su herself. If you want to buy it, there’s nowhere to get it."
Unexpectedly, not only are there abundant prizes for this year’s party, but also performance outfits.
A group of salespeople who didn’t register for the performance regretted it deeply.
Who knew that this year, the usually stingy departnt store leaders would be so generous.
Soone couldn’t help but say, "If only our departnt store could issue such work uniforms."
Imdiately soone next to him sneered, "It’s not even dark yet, and you’re dreaming of such good things? With our general manager’s tight-fistedness, will he’d ever be willing to give each of us such an outfit? Even dreaming doesn’t work that way. Delusional."
"I was just saying, how could such good things really happen."
While everyone was chatting away, soone suddenly shouted loudly: "Director Chen is coming."
As soon as this sentence fell, everyone scattered imdiately, going back to their places.
Director Chen has always been strict, and if she caught them gathering and chatting right before work, they’d surely dock their pay again.
There weren’t many people this afternoon, and by mid-afternoon, there were basically no people left.
Several of them, including Su Xiaoxiao, occasionally chatted leisurely at the counter.
"Why does it feel like our departnt store’s performance is getting worse and worse recently?"
Zhang Yulan suddenly said.
Qin Shuang heard this and quietly leaned over: "Nowadays there are many individual vendors out there, selling cheap items without needing receipts, sure to be more popular than us. Do you think in the future our departnt store business might keep declining?"
"Nonsense, impossible! As they say, a forearm can’t bend a thigh. These individual vendors are all small-ti, no way they can compare to our departnt store’s complete range of goods."
Zhang Yulan is quite confident in the departnt store.
Seeing Su Xiaoxiao quiet for a while, she turned to ask her: "Xiaoxiao, don’t you think so?"
"Maybe the governnt will later support individual rchants, and departnt store salespeople will no longer have iron rice bowls."
Su Xiaoxiao was speaking the truth. In a couple of years, the country will even issue policies related to individual industrial and comrcial households, and then the departnt store will certainly be further affected.
Zhang Yulan obviously didn’t believe it: "That’s definitely impossible. Everyone knows our departnt store is the best-performing unit. If anyone gets laid off, it won’t be our salespeople. So relax, both of you."
Zhang Yulan thought Su Xiaoxiao was worried about unemploynt, and assuredly promised them.
Seeing she didn’t believe, Su Xiaoxiao didn’t continue explaining.
She thought internally, if one day the departnt store couldn’t keep going, maybe she would look into buying shares or sothing.
Her mom and Xu Zhaodi have experience in running a cafeteria, they could open a restaurant or sothing.
But all that needs startup capital, so she figured she better try to earn more money now.
Thinking of this, she suddenly recalled the discussion with Manager Wang about mini sewing machines.
She had already paid the advance for the sewing machines, just waiting for the order to co in, then she could have the supplier ship them anyti.
Her small warehouse couldn’t fit that many sewing machines, so she could only negotiate with the supplier to ship as many as sold.
Once these sewing machines were sold, she would earn quite a bit in rebates, enough for her initial capital.
Thinking happily, she took a mont to have Zhang Yulan and Qin Shuang look after the counter and went upstairs to the purchasing departnt to find Manager Wang.
In the office, Manager Wang was worriedly looking at a purchase list when he heard a knock on the door.
Letting the person in, he found it was Su Xiaoxiao.
The wrinkles on his forehead smoothed out imdiately.
"Comrade Su, you ca just in ti. I was about to look for you. How’s the sewing machine matter you helped inquire about?"
"Manager Wang, I’ve asked, and the supplier has sufficient stock. It’s just up to you how many you need.
"That’s great, could you ask them to send over thirty units first? If they sell well, I’ll order more."
Su Xiaoxiao originally thought he’d ask for more units, but he surprisingly only wanted thirty.
However, this quantity was already not bad for the departnt store, given normal sewing machines usually only had stock of ten or so.
She imdiately agreed happily: "No problem, I’ll have them deliver it to your door tomorrow."
Manager Wang bead with joy and then rembered the most crucial question: "Comrade Su, what’s the price for these sewing machines?"
Su Xiaoxiao ordered a lot, so they gave her a discount, plus she earned quite a rebate for each machine sold, allowing her to profit even with discounts.
"One hundred and eighty per unit, no receipt needed."
Su Xiaoxiao thought it over and gave a reasonable price.
On the market, this type of sewing machine would probably be sold for around two hundred and twenty each.
With forty yuan profit per machine, that was already quite decent.
Manager Wang also found the price very reasonable, imdiately decided: "No problem, Comrade Su, you go and ask them to send a price list, I’ll go to find the general manager for approval tomorrow."
Having discussed the sewing machine deal, Su Xiaoxiao was about to leave, but Manager Wang suddenly called her: "Comrade Su, I have a question I’d like to ask you."
A purchasing departnt manager asking her for advice, it simply gave her too much face.
Su Xiaoxiao quickly said: "Manager Wang, you’re too kind. Just say the word and if I can help, I definitely will."
"Comrade Su, you know, recently because of the increase of individual vendors in the city, our departnt store revenue has been sowhat affected. Quite a few products have beco unsellable. I’d like to know if you have any good solutions."
