Chapter 851: Chapter 851: New Plans
For three consecutive days, business at the clothing store was booming, while the consignment shop started to see less foot traffic from the third day onwards.
However, because the weather was getting hotter, the consignment shop’s iced tea and sour plum soup were selling very well.
Not only the road construction team but also residents from nearby came to purchase, and having the consignment shop really made things convenient for the locals.
Once everything settled down here, Xinyan started to develop new ideas.
Xinyan asked Chen Manjuan to find several skilled female workers who could operate sewing machines and were proficient in making clothes.
Xinyan plans to take out all the remaining sewing machines from the space and recruit women who could use sewing machines to work on clothes she designed.
Of course, they definitely can’t duplicate what’s being made at the garment factory.
The clothing store happens to have a back door, and there are quite a few empty rooms in the courtyard, perfect for setting up those sewing machines. Although the fabric in the space isn’t much, it’s enough for a while, and if needed, they can supply locally.
With this idea, she decided to implement it right away.
She found a vehicle and moved the stuff from the space to the shop.
To make it convenient for future employees who will make clothes, Xinyan had Ling Tianze create a small entrance at the front, directly dividing the passage leading to the backyard to the eastern wing.
She blocked all the hanging flower doors leading to the main courtyard, so in the future, people would have to walk through the western wing when entering the main courtyard.
She intends to keep the yard at the southern entrance for her own use, perfect for using the main door.
Additionally, just like the eastern wing, she plans to open a small door in the western wing, and later on, rent out the second courtyard of the main area along with the first and second courtyard of the western wing.
However, with Ling Tianze soon taking exams, she assigned Qi Baocheng to handle the matters, as he was an engineer and more knowledgeable about such things.
Consequently, the consignment shop became a bit understaffed, just as she was about to ask Chen Manjuan to recruit another person.
The young man whom Xinyan had favored during the first interview came knocking on her door: "Excuse me, are you still hiring?"
He was the guy Xinyan liked during the second round of interviews, but for some unknown reason, he didn’t come back afterwards.
Seeing him, Xinyan asked, "Why didn’t you come before?"
The young man smiled and said, "Coincidentally during those days we received a letter from my sister saying she was about to give birth. My mom was worried and wanted to be there for support, but having never traveled far before, the family was worried, so I had to take her there."
Xinyan couldn’t help asking, "Did she have a boy or a girl?"
The young man beamed with joy: "She had twins, a boy and a girl."
Upon hearing, Xinyan genuinely replied, "That’s wonderful, congratulations."
She couldn’t help but think: Soon, the family planning policy will be implemented, and it would be great if she could have twins like that in the future.
Realizing her thoughts, she blushed, wondering why she thought about herself.
Quickly changing the topic, she asked, "When can you start working?"
The young man, upon hearing Xinyan’s words, was delighted: "My name is Mao Jiangpeng, and I can start anytime."
This solves the staffing issue perfectly: "Come over to work tomorrow and check in with Qi Baocheng so he can guide you."
No matter if it’s the consignment shop or the clothing store, they’ve implemented an inventory system, and she keeps a separate ledger, conducting a stock check monthly. She has no fear of any issues arising.
