Hu Chunli looked at Li Xu gratefully. “Sister, thank you for thinking of giving me this opportunity. I’ll go back and make some plans. 1’11 give you an answer in a few days.”
Li Xu nodded. “Alright, I’m not in a hurry. Think about it carefully!”
The two of them chatted for a while more before Hu Chunli left.
At noon, the first thing Zhang Kun said when he returned was, “Did Hu Chunli come to look for you?”
Li Xu nodded happily. “She did. I told her all my thoughts. She didn’t resist. She said that she wanted to go back and think about it. She will give me an answer in the next few days.”
After saying that, she asked Zhang Kun, “How did it go when you went out? Did you see any suitable locations?”
“There are quite a number of suitable residential areas. The flow of people is quite large, and there isn’t a large market nearby. However, I haven’t seen the exact location yet. In the afternoon, I will focus on going to these residential areas to inquire if there are any store for rent.”
…..
Li Xu nodded and said in a low voice, “There aren’t many people at this time. You stay here and watch. 1 will go home and cook.”
“Forget it. I’ll go back and cook. You rest for a while,” Zhang Kun said and was about to leave.
However, Li Xu reached out and grabbed Zhang Kun’s hand. “Alright, don’t argue with me. Sit here and rest for a while!”
Zhang Kun knew that Li Xu was distressed for him, so he didn’t continue to decline.
He watched the shop while Li Xu went home to cook.
Half an hour later, he went home at the right time.
The children had already returned and Li Xu’s had finished preparing lunch.
In the afternoon, after the children went to school, Zhang Kun followed closely behind and rode his bicycle out.
Li Xu thought that Hu Chunli would have to think about it for a few days. However, she did not expect that she would come again at three o’clock in the afternoon.
As soon as she entered the door, she said warmly, “Sister, I’ve thought it through. I’ll accept this job!”
Hearing this, Li Xu heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. She hurriedly pulled Hu Chunli to sit down on the stool beside her.
“That’s great. Don’t worry. I won’t mistreat you,” Li Xu said happily.
Hu Chunli pursed her lips and smiled. “I can rest assured about this. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have agreed so readily. I don’t have any other requests beside two things.”
She looked a little nervous as she spoke.
“Just mention it. 1’11 definitely satisfy you if I can!”
Hu Chunli said in a low voice, “I think it’s best if the new store is closer to the school. That way, I can pick up and send Jingyi there. Also, it’s best if there’s a separate place in the shop where Jingyi can do her homework.”
After she said that, she smiled embarrassedly. “I know my requests might be a little too much, but you can lower the salary.”
Li Xu was also a mother, so how could she not understand her?
Everything she did was for Jingyi.
“Don’t worry. I’ll try my best to satisfy these two points.”
Only by making Hu Chunli work comfortably could she continue working for a long time.
Li Xu still understood this logic.
Hu Chunli smiled gratefully at Li Xu. “Then I’ll have to trouble you. I’ve been idling at home recently. Just call me anytime you need any help!”
After dinner, Zhang Kun accompanied the children to watch TV in the living room.
It was still the “The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils”, and the four of them were watching with great interest.
Li Xu put away the clothes on the balcony and urged, “Hurry up and take a shower. Take off all your dirty clothes. I’ll wash them for you tomorrow.”
After saying this, none of the three children moved.
Li Xu was furious. She stepped forward and grabbed Ji Zi’ang with one hand and Ji Zixuan with the other. “The two of you hurry up and take a shower, watch it after you’re done!”
Ji Zi’ang laughed bitterly as he discussed with Li Xu, “Mom, the episode is almost over. Can I go take a shower after watching this episode?”
“After this episode, there will be another episode. How long do you plan to drag this out?”
Hearing this, Ji Zi’ang could only pick up his clothes listlessly and go to the bathroom. Ji Zixuan followed closely behind. He had no interest in the TV series to begin with, and he only watched it with his family.
When her two sons entered the bathroom, Li Xu sat down on the sofa.
She discussed with Zhang Kun, “Chunli came to see me this afternoon and said that she had made up her mind. However, she made two requests, and 1 agreed.”
Zhang Kun took out the remote control and turned down the volume of the television. He then asked, “What request?”
Ji Yuanyuan’s eyes were fixed on the television, but her ears were listening to the conversation between the two.
“Firstly, she hoped that the store would be closer to the school so that it would be more convenient for her to pick up and send Jingyi. Secondly, she hoped that there would be a separate room in the store. She would definitely bring Jingyi to the shop in the future. Jingyi needs a place to do her homework and rest.”
Zhang Kun thought for a moment and said, “It shouldn’t be a problem if it’s close to the school. Many of the residential areas 1 saw today are not very far from the school. But the seperate room…”
He paused for a moment and said, “This shouldn’t be a problem. 1’11 try my best to look for it. Even if I can’t find it, I’ll just find a larger one and give her a space.”
Li Xu nodded, “Since she has agreed, we have to think about the salary. From seven in the morning to six in the evening, we’ll have a day off every week. Isn’t 400 Yuan a month a bit too little?”
Zhang Kun shook his head and said, “It’s not too little!”
Li Xu nodded. “Then that’s it. When the shop is open in the future, we’ll also pay the employee’s insurance.”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
However, Ji Yuanyuan turned around and said, “Mom, the amount of salary doesn’t need to be fixed. We can take a percentage of the profits. This way, the more we sell, the higher Auntie Hu’s salary will be!”
A fixed salary was actually like boiling a frog in warm water for the employees.
Working hard or not will give them the same amount of money. At the beginning, perhaps she was still very motivated, but over time, this motivation also disappeared.
Then she could just muddle along. Anyway, she was paid every month, so rather than working hard, she might as well make her life a little easier.
But taking money according to the proportion of profits was different.
As long as she worked hard, she could take more money.
Just like sales, why were salespeople full of energy every day?
That was because every time they worked hard, they would get an extra cent.
“We can set a base salary of 300 Yuan. If the salary is less than 300 Yuan, then we’ll calculate it as 300 Yuan. If it’s higher than that, then we’ll give a percentage of the profits.”
After Ji Yuanyuan finished speaking, Li Xu and Zhang Kun did not speak for a long time.
This was something they hadn’t expected.
It had to be said that their daughter’s idea was very impressive.
Although Hu Chunli was a trustworthy person, everyone had their own laziness. Over time, it was very likely that she would develop laziness, lose her motivation, and settle for the status quo.
As a boss, one had to give the employees motivation. Instead of just saying that and telling them to work hard.
Not only for Aunt Hu. Because they will open many more branches in the future. They could apply this model in every store..
