Chapter 59 Hello, Mr. Wen!

The National Day holiday is over, and office workers have started their nine-to-five workday again. The crowded streets seem a little cold and depressed against the backdrop of autumn wind and fallen leaves.

The mall was no exception. It was bustling the day before, but now it seemed a little deserted. After the hustle and bustle of the peak sales period, it ushered in a relatively quiet low period.

At the Zhichu handover meeting, the store manager was in high spirits as he held a meeting with six shopping guides.

Everyone performed well during the National Day holiday, and the performance targets set before the holiday were basically met. According to schedule, the overall performance in October showed a clear year-on-year growth momentum.

"Everyone has worked hard during the National Day holiday and has cooperated well with each other. After get off work in the evening, there will be a dinner party at Little Sheep, and everyone must be there!"

After arranging the work, the store manager organized a dinner for the team in the evening to reward the employees for their hard work over the past few days.

The shopping guides cheered and applauded, and everyone had a smile on their face.

The National Day holiday was not easy for them. Working for many consecutive days kept them in a highly tense state, and every day was like a battle.

Standing for long periods of time, answering customers' questions and serving customers was physically exhausting. Fortunately, the hard work was finally rewarded, and the sense of achievement and satisfaction of meeting the performance target made everyone particularly excited.

"Also, regarding the leather jacket that was missing during the inventory at the end of September, we checked the surveillance footage and found that a shopping guide on the night shift on September 3rd took advantage of his colleagues not paying attention and left without checking each other's backpacks. That employee resigned in the middle of the month, and there's no point in calling the police without substantial evidence. There's no surveillance in the warehouse, so everyone should be more careful when going to and from get off work in the future. After all, everyone has to pay compensation if goods are lost."

As soon as the store manager finished speaking, the shopping guides immediately sighed and complained one after another.

Based on the employee discount, a leather jacket worth 5,000 yuan would cost one person 714 yuan.

A week's salary was gone in an instant.

"How wicked! Stealing clothes!"

"What's the point of scolding people? You still have to check after get off work. Don't be afraid of trouble!"

"Yes, people's hearts are hidden in their stomachs."

Everyone finished the shift meeting in anger, the shift handover was over, and the night shift employees had already arrived at their posts.

The store manager called Ye Zhenzhen to the computer and chatted with her with a smile.

"The shopping mall next door is undergoing some adjustments recently. It is said that Zhichu will also move in and recruit a store manager. Are you interested?"

Faced with the store manager's direct and clear question, Ye Zhenzhen was a little surprised. Normally, everyone would recommend someone close to them. She had a mediocre relationship with the store manager and was not used to flattering him.

"Manager, I've only been here for four months, so I don't know much about store management."

"If you want to learn, I can teach you." The store manager said sincerely, "I see that you work hard and have a good relationship with your colleagues."

Ye Zhenzhen was pleasantly surprised, and her voice trembled slightly due to her excitement. "Thank you, Manager. I will definitely study hard. Please give me more guidance."

"The Zhichu store in the mall next door is expected to open by the end of the year, which means you still have more than two months to work hard." The store manager patted her shoulder and said, "Keep working hard!"

Store managers from other Zhichu stores will also recommend outstanding employees, not to mention that employees who have resigned from certain brands will come to compete for this position.

The opportunity has come, but Ye Zhenzhen is under a lot of pressure. Being a shopping guide and a store manager are two completely different things. The responsibilities are different, and the way of thinking is also different. Being a shopping guide only requires serving customers well and doing a good job. Being a store manager not only requires focusing on performance but also coordinating and arranging work.

She returned to the gate, feeling a little excited but also a little worried, wondering if she could seize this opportunity.

"What did the store manager say to you?"

Although the conversation between the store manager and Ye Zhenzhen was not loud, the store was small enough that anyone with eyes could see it.

Xia Tong touched Ye Zhenzhen's arm and asked in a low voice.

"Nothing, just let me work properly."

"You should just go to work. You'll lose so much on the 11th!"

"I regret it too..."

This is what she really thinks. Having missed the sales peak on the 1st, Ye Zhenzhen's performance is now ranked third. If she were to go to work on the 1st, her performance would at least be higher.

"It's okay, there are still more than 20 days left! Keep working hard, maybe we can win the sales championship, and then we will get a bonus of 1,000 yuan!"

Xia Tong comforted Ye Zhenzhen with a smile. Xia Tong knew that her performance was not enough to get the top sales title. She hoped that Ye Zhenzhen would get it rather than others. Among the shopping guides in this store, she had a closer relationship with Ye Zhenzhen.

"I also want to get a bonus, but it all depends on luck!" Ye Zhenzhen answered in a low voice. She also wanted to make more money, but being a salesperson sometimes depends on luck.

"You have to work hard! I'll wait for you to treat me to a meal after you win the sales championship."

"Okay, it's a deal!"

The two chatted quietly at the gate. There were almost no customers in the mall. Most of them took advantage of the National Day holiday to go on a shopping spree and bought everything they needed. Today was Monday, the quietest time of the year.

The building manager started his night shift inspections again, checking each store for problems.

From afar, I saw the patrolling building manager, and it was the stern Xie building manager.

Ye Zhenzhen and Xia Tong immediately shut up and stood still like two wooden stakes.

"Good leadership!"

The two of them greeted Manager Xie respectfully.

If you can't afford to offend someone, you have to learn to be humble. You can't go against money.

Manager Xie was very satisfied with the performance of the two and nodded at them.

In fact, the salary of building managers is not as high as that of shopping guides, but if building managers want to bully young shopping guides, it is really just a matter of words. Even brand companies can't find any excuses, and no brand company will offend them.

Sometimes you have a little power and others have to treat you with respect.

Manager Xie walked around the store, but he didn't go out of his way to find fault. "Why haven't you taken down the flag hanging on the ceiling?"

Looking around, all the materials for the November activities have been cleared away.

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhenzhen and Xia Tong looked up and found that the small hanging flag was still there.

It seems that these are the tails that the colleagues on the morning shift deliberately left behind. If the shopping guide on the morning shift cleans up everything, then the shopping guide on the night shift won’t have to clean up. No one wants to work more and suffer more.

"Leader, we will clean it up immediately."

"Leader, we just changed shifts and haven't had time to clean up yet. Can you give us a chance and not fine us? We will clean it up quickly."

Ye Zhenzhen put on a smile and acted as if asking for help.

Manager Xie paused and said, "Hurry up and solve it."

"Thank you, leader!"

The two thanked him repeatedly, saying that saving a few dollars with one sentence is also a profit.

Ye Zhenzhen went to the warehouse and carefully moved out the ladder.

"I'm old, my legs are weak when climbing ladders, and I'm afraid of heights..."

Sister Li was lazy and had already revealed her experience. Before anyone else could speak, she said that she was afraid of heights.

"I can't reach..."

Xia Tong is less than 1.6 meters tall, so what she said is just a statement of fact.

The store manager is busy reporting performance to the company's sales group and reporting work to his superiors from time to time.

Ye Zhenzhen is the only young person who is not busy at the moment and is only 165cm tall.

"Xia Tong, help me hold the ladder."

Ye Zhenzhen was also afraid of heights because of her weak legs, but she had to climb up the ladder reluctantly.

“Is it steady?”

"Well, hold on, go slowly."

She stood up tremblingly on the ladder and reached for the flag.

Ye Zhenzhen glanced down, feeling dizzy and her head felt like it was falling.

My stomach began to churn and a wave of nausea rose up my throat.

She closed her eyes and tried to calm herself down. After a while, the dizziness was relieved a lot. Ye Zhenzhen opened her eyes and looked up at the ceiling as much as possible, not daring to glance down.

She bent her knees slightly, stretched out her arms, and tried to reach the hanging flag with her fingertips.

"Ye Zhenzhen, it's almost there, just straighten your legs."

Sister Li, who was watching from the sidelines, suggested loudly.

It was only a few centimeters away. Ye Zhenzhen straightened her body, and mobilized all her strength to move upwards, watching her fingertips getting closer and closer to the hanging flag.

"Hello, President Wen! Hello, President Lu!"
