Transmigrated into a Parvenu's Ex-wife in the '90s

Chapter 113 - Drawing (3)

The man left happily with the fan in his hands. Even though he had the television in mind when he bought the clothes, he knew that that was a long shot. He hadn’t expected he’d win the electric fan. His wife had been grumbling that the weather has been getting too hot lately and that they needed to get an electric fan. Now that he had won one, his wife would be happy when she saw it.

Seeing that someone had left with an electric fan, the bystanders were even more excited. They had all come to this street to shop for clothes; it didn’t matter which shop they bought it from. And they can enter the drawing if they bought from this shop.

None of the temporary helpers went out to distribute flyers but were all helping out inside the shop. Even so, Shu Yan still felt that they were a bit short handed.

“That comes to $112. You paid $120. Here’s your $8 back.” Shu Yan was busy with collecting money and giving out changes. She had no time for sales activities at all.

When the rush finally died down, it was already noon time. Shu Yan handed Zhang Huaxiu some money to get lunch, grabbed her purse, and was about to take off.

“You don’t want to have some food first, boss lady?” asked Zhang Huaxiu while holding onto the money.

“No, no food for me. I need to head to the factory to get more merchandise. Clean up a little bit around the shop in a little and refill the racks with merchandise. Then take turns to take a break.” By the time she got to the front door, Shu Yan turned around and added, “Everybody had worked so hard. Get a few more meat dishes. Don’t worry about saving money for me.”

“I will,” said Zhang Huaxiu with a smile.

Shu Yan was lucky this time and was able to get a taxi on the side of the road. It cost 30 yuan to get to the factory; that was a bit on the high end. But, right now, time was money. So Shu Yan took the cab to the factory.

“Boss He, I see you have new styles out again,” said Shu Yan when she saw quite a few new short jackets and padded jackets.

“I saw quite some new styles at your shop last time so I made a special trip to City Yang, bought a few different styles of clothing, and made them here myself. What do you think? Not too shabby huh?” said Boss He happily.

“They are quite good.” Shu Yan nodded. “Do you do shirts here? I have a couple styles of shirts that I would like to have produced.” Shu Yan wanted to come up with a couple styles of shirts. She’d do the design herself and look for a factory to produce them and sell them in her shop.

Boss He shook his head. “I am quite busy already and won’t be able to pick up more orders, but I can refer you to a different factory. He has only recently switched over to new equipment and has experienced employees. His products are every bit as good as mine.”

Being in the clothing business could be risky. If you fell out of the current trend and nobody wanted to buy your products, your factory wouldn’t be able to get any orders. And that’s the situation that Boss He’s friend was in.

“I will be tied up the next couple of days. Maybe after my promotional period is over. Then I will have you take me to your friends’. In addition, there’s something I want to talk to you about. I have been very busy lately. Do you think you can deliver my orders to me in the future if I give you a call?”

Boss He mulled over it for a little bit and said, “I can deliver if you order 50 or more.”

“Okay, that works.” Shu Yan nodded with alacrity.

Shu Yan’s order was over 50 today, so Boss He had the truck from the factory deliver them to Shu Yan directly.

Shu Yan’s shop was busy all the way until that evening and Shu Yan added 5 yuan to the temporary workers’ pay. “We were so busy today that I didn’t even have the chance to buy bread and milk. Take this and buy yourself something to eat.”

“Thank you, boss lady.”

After they had left, Shu Yan saw that Zhang Huaxiu and Yingying were still organizing the clothes and smiled. “I won’t give you extra for now, but you will get bonuses at the end of the month.”

“Thank you, boss lady,” said Yingying sweetly.

Unlike the temporary workers, other than the base pay, they also got commissions. For every article of clothing that they sold, they would receive 1% in commission. Yingying did some calculations that afternoon during her break, she had sold 700-yuan worth of clothes just this morning. That’s 7 yuan in commission. Adding in afternoon and evening, that’s 20 yuan in commission; that’s 600 yuan a month. Just thinking about that made Yingying feel that she was washed over by excitement.

Zhang Huaxiu , standing next to her, was still a bit dazed. When she started working here, she thought her base pay plus benefits added up to be slightly lower than what she used to make at the factory and hadn’t given the commission much thought. But now her commission looked to be higher than her base pay. Conservatively, her 300 yuan commission plus base pay and all sorts of subsidies came out to be over 600 yuan. Over 600 yuan. Her brother, as a mid-level manager at a factory, was only making 500 yuan a month salary.

“Alright, let’s go. Let’s close down the shop and go home.” Shu Yan hasn’t seen her two kids all day long and she wondered how they were doing at home. All she could think of right now was her two children.
