Chapter 33: The moon is halfway through the window, but I still don't sleep enough

In the Yuncheng Wuyue shopping mall, customers are shoulder to shoulder.

Take the escalator to the second floor women's clothing store, and the Zhichu store is eye-catching.

The Zhichu window displays new styles of young ladies’ clothing, with spotlights shining down from different angles, making it fresh and fashionable.

The center shelf next to Ye Zhenzhen was filled with summer clothes that were about to be produced.

Ye Zhenzhen hung up the clothes while turning on the steam iron, preparing to iron the samples.

Xia Tong is changing clothes for a standing model.

This model (model JR-32) is 186cm tall, and its upper and lower body, two arms, two hands, and right leg are all detachable.

Xia Tong took off the model's dress and was changing her into a pair of new jeans. She thought it was too troublesome to dismantle the model, so after pulling the model off the base, she stood behind the model, put her shoulders on her back, and picked her up to put on her pants.

Xia Tong had just put on her trouser legs and was holding the model's calves to get up, but she didn't expect the model's center of gravity to be unstable and she was about to fall forward.

"Ye Zhenzhen, come and help me quickly!"

"coming!"

At the critical moment, Ye Zhenzhen dropped the clothes in her hand and rushed towards Xia Tong in a flash.

The model staggered forward, and with a dull thud, she fell face down on the floor, her arms and legs scattered all over the floor.

Ye Zhenzhen rushed over and caught one of the model's arms, while Xia Tong knelt on the ground holding one of the model's legs.

Xia Tong pouted, feeling deflated, "I shouldn't have been lazy if I had known!"

Ye Zhenzhen suppressed her laughter, "I thought you were gifted and could succeed!"

"Ye Zhenzhen! Shouldn't you comfort me..." Xia Tong complained.

Ye Zhenzhen shook the model's arm and said with a smile, "Okay! I'll help you put the model back."

Xia Tong looked like she was about to cry, "Ye Zhenzhen, I really want to cry. Really, there is a lot of work that I haven't done yet! Now pretending to be a model will delay my time again."

Ye Zhenzhen turned around and smiled secretly. She cleared her throat and comforted him, "It's okay. Let's do it slowly together! We will eventually finish it."

Xia Tong felt a little aggrieved, "Just work slowly. If the store manager comes and sees that we haven't finished yet, he will scold us again."

Ye Zhenzhen sighed. Just do as much as you can. There is no other way.

Two people picked up the model's body that was scattered on the ground, dressed the model, and then one of them held the legs and the other held the upper body. It took some effort to finally install the model tightly.

Ye Zhenzhen steadied the model and carefully inserted it into the chassis. She said softly, "Xia Tong, don't be lazy when changing models next time. If it breaks, we have to pay for it, and no one can escape!"

Ye Zhenzhen doesn't want to pay for work. If the model breaks, she has to pay for it. If the clothes are lost, she has to pay for it. She is also fined for being late, leaving early, and absent from work. The base salary of 2800 a month is really not enough!

"Zhenzhen, you see, every time Sister Li has hard work, she goes to the bathroom, or she chooses to do something easy." Xia Tong looked at Sister Zhao who was walking back from the bathroom in the distance, and said bitterly, "We newcomers are destined to do dirty and hard work!"

Both of them are new employees, of similar age, and work together every day, so the two newcomers naturally become close.

Xia Tong knew that Ye Zhenzhen would not betray her. It was not a big deal to complain about the old employees in private and vent a few words. They were all at the bottom of the food chain now.

Ye Zhenzhen reached out to straighten the corner of the model's clothes, then stepped back a few steps to carefully observe the window.

She smiled and comforted him, "Okay! When a new employee comes, you will become a veteran employee! Don't bully the newbies then!"

Xia Tong picked up the dress that the model had changed out of and said angrily, "I definitely wouldn't do that. It's sneaky!"

商场上班时间是早班8:30-15:30,晚班是14:30-21:30。

Today, Ye Zhenzhen, Xia Tong and Sister Li are working the night shift in Zhichu store, while the store manager is working the mid-shift.

Except for the store manager, all the store employees change shifts every day. Today is the early shift, tomorrow is the late shift, and 14:30-15:30 is the time for the two shifts to change over.

Ye Zhenzhen received a call from her mother that day, feeling depressed, she walked into the mall and saw the recruitment information at the entrance of Zhichu. She walked into the store with the mentality of giving it a try, and the store manager saw that she had a good figure and asked her to come to work the next day.

The basic salary is 2800 yuan, working seven hours a day, with one day off a month, and social insurance is purchased after seven days of employment. After working for a full year, there is a yuan seniority bonus every month.

During the off-season, the highest salary an employee can get is 7,000 yuan, and it is said that some people have earned over 10,000 yuan during the peak season.

Of course, this depends on sales skills and luck.

The basic performance of each month is floating, and is formulated based on the peak and off-peak seasons, year-on-year and month-on-month data. (Occasionally, the basic performance of competitors will also be referenced)

If you fail to achieve 80% of the basic performance, not only will you not receive any commission, but you will also have to pay money to the company out of your own pocket.

No job is easy. A shopping guide has to clean, receive customers, and know about back materials, sizes, barcodes, etc.

All preparation work is to serve one goal, sales.

"Hello! Welcome to Zhichu Women's Clothing."

Ye Zhenzhen stood at the door with a smile on her face to welcome guests. She kept saying hello to the customers passing by.

After shouting until my throat was sore, a customer finally came into the store.

Ye Zhenzhen followed behind the customer, about three meters away from him.

"Hello, beautiful lady. What would you like to buy? I can recommend something to you."

The customer was wearing a black pleated skirt and was short and fat. She glanced at the clothes and ignored Ye Zhenzhen.

"Hello, beautiful lady, if you like anything, you can try it on. It's okay if you don't want to buy it."

Ye Zhenzhen followed the customer closely with a smile on her face.

The customer still ignored Ye Zhenzhen and didn't even look at her.

"You asked me to try on clothes to show off your good figure, right?"

Ye Zhenzhen was surprised by the customer's sudden words. This was given by her parents. Could it be that she would go running naked just because she didn't have a good figure?

"Beautiful lady, you misunderstood. Serving customers is my duty. The best clothes are the ones that suit you. Wearing clothes is for your own enjoyment, not for comparison with others."

The customer rolled his eyes at Ye Zhenzhen and left angrily.

The female customer's back was getting farther and farther away, and Ye Zhenzhen looked up to the sky and sighed. She finally managed to call in a customer, but it ended in failure.

Xia Tong stood at the door and tried to hold back her laughter. "You are standing in front of others, why don't they compare you?"

Ye Zhenzhen puffed up her cheeks and frowned, "If I don't follow her, I'll be scolded to death. I dare not violate the rules." After saying that, she gave Xia Tong a look.

There are cameras everywhere in the store, and if you are not proactive in serving customers, you may be seen by the backstage at any time.

If things go wrong, the whole district may be notified and fined.

The three employees in the store take turns standing guard at the door to call customers. After they come in, they only have one chance regardless of whether the customer makes a deal or not.

Next it is someone else's turn to call the guests.

Three people take turns, and after a round, those who are unlucky cannot place any orders, and their turns are limited to a few times a day. Those who are extremely unlucky cannot place any orders all day, and their work is in vain.

Kenny G's saxophone solo starts playing and the mall is about to close.

In the small warehouse of the store, Ye Zhenzhen and others were changing clothes.

Xia Tong took off her shirt, "Zhenzhen, do you have a boyfriend?"

Ye Zhenzhen changed her clothes and walked out, "No, do you have any?"

Xia Tong smiled and said, "I have a boyfriend! He picked me up from get off work today!"

Arriving at the cashier counter, Ye Zhenzhen opened the cabinet and took out her backpack.

Xia Tong also walked out of the warehouse, "Do you have someone you like?"

Ye Zhenzhen paused, "No."

Xia Tong smiled mysteriously: "I have a lot of boyfriends and my buddies are single. Can I introduce one to you?"

Ye Zhenzhen opened her eyes wide and shook her head, "No, I don't want to have a boyfriend."

Ye Zhenzhen and the other two packed up and prepared to go home. They stood at the door of the store, opened their backpacks at the same time, and looked at each other's bags.

Walking out of the staff passage, Ye Zhenzhen and Xia Tong waved goodbye.

The moonlight was dim, and countless moths flew towards the light under the street lights.
