I Have a Wealth Gathering Array-Chapter 261: Zhao Dongxue Is Going to Be Store Manager
Arriving at a clothing store, the employees warmly greeted Qin Yun, calling out, "President Qin."
In their hearts, they held great admiration for Qin Yun. Such a young, handsome boss who offered them such high salaries—who wouldn’t admire and be grateful to him?
Qin Yun smiled at them and walked in, calling out to his cousin, Zhao Dongxue.
"Brother Qin Yun," Zhao Dongxue giggled as she looked at Qin Yun.
She was very happy because she received a salary of 7,300 in March, and unless something unexpected happened, it could increase again this month!
Now she was full of energy, solely aiming for a salary target of 8,000 at the clothing store!
"Xue, how’s everything going at the clothing store?" Qin Yun asked.
He was a bit surprised with his cousin. The store had performance evaluations, and Zhao Dongxue was among the top three in the clothing store, showing outstanding performance.
"Of course, it’s going well," Zhao Dongxue nodded.
After a few questions, Qin Yun said, "I’m planning to open three new stores on June 1st, and I want to transfer you to be the manager of a small store. Do you have the confidence to handle it?"
"Manager of a small store?"
Hearing this, Zhao Dongxue was taken aback.
When she first came to Celestial Fortune, she naïvely asked Qin Yun for a raise, but her mindset eventually changed. Now, she was working steadily to perform better and earn a higher salary.
As for being a manager, she had thought about it, but she knew there were many people more competent than her, and she couldn’t compete with them.
"If you don’t have confidence, never mind," Qin Yun said with a smile, seeing her silence.
"Brother Qin Yun, I have confidence!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Dongxue quickly responded.
Having worked at the Celestial Fortune Clothing store for over half a year, she was very familiar with the workings of Celestial Fortune. Qin Yun often let Zhao Dongxue switch between clothing stores, from large to small, primarily to see if she had potential.
Being relatives, with Celestial Fortune continuously expanding and new stores opening every month, if Zhao Dongxue had some ability, managing a small store was entirely possible.
Her salary would certainly be higher this way.
As relatives, Qin Yun was surely willing to provide more opportunities.
And Zhao Dongxue performed even better than he had imagined.
"Good to have confidence! Keep up the good work this month," Qin Yun smiled and encouraged Zhao Dongxue a bit, saying, "Next month, you’ll be the manager."
Returning to the clothing store, Zhao Dongxue was still excited.
"Xue, what did President Qin talk about with you?" beside her, her dear friend Yu Xiaoting curiously asked.
Zhao Dongxue happily said, "Ting, let me tell you, but don’t tell anyone else. My brother Qin Yun is letting me be the manager of a small store next month."
"Really?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaoting’s face instantly showed deep envy.
Being the manager of a small store not only meant a higher salary but also bonuses double that of the regular employees, with a sure monthly income of over ten thousand.
Although envious, Yu Xiaoting was quite content at that moment.
With only a junior high diploma, she was earning over seven thousand in salary, which made her extremely happy.
After work, Zhao Dongxue excitedly called her parents to share the good news.
"Xue, your cousin values you, so you must do a good job, understand?"
Upon hearing the news, Zhao Dongxue’s parents, Qin Yun’s second uncle and aunt, were also very happy and repeatedly reminded her.
Their rebellious daughter, who had been quite a handful growing up, was now earning more than ten thousand, a salary higher than their other son, who was a live-in son-in-law in Shanghai and didn’t visit even once a year.
"Got it," Zhao Dongxue nodded, contently hanging up the phone.
...
Leaving the clothing store, Qin Yun arrived at Cyan Mist Hot Pot Restaurant, where business was booming, with some people even waiting to eat hot pot.
It was now the May Day holiday, and generally, business in the catering industry was better than usual.
With its reopening, Cyan Mist Hot Pot Restaurant had launched various activities, attracting many customers.
During the entire May Day holiday, the hotpot restaurant was bustling.
Hu Congrong and others remained busy, but Qin Yun was often absent, seemingly very occupied.
In a flash, May Day passed.
On May 7th, Hu Congrong specifically sought out Qin Yun.
"Senior Sister Hu."
Looking at the poised woman before him in professional attire, Qin Yun asked, "What brings you to me?"
"Qin Yun."
Hu Congrong began, "There are some things I find difficult to express."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yun smiled and said, "Senior Sister Hu, feel free to speak your mind."
Nodding, Hu Congrong said, "Earlier, six of us partnered to open Cyan Mist Hot Pot Restaurant. The contract stipulated each person’s responsibilities and obligations. I wanted to ask you to take more responsibility for the hot pot restaurant."
While everyone else was busy in the store, Qin Yun was frequently absent.
Even during the reopening of the hot pot restaurant, Qin Yun was nowhere to be seen.
According to the investment ratio, Qin Yun’s dividend reached 47%, almost half.
With such a large share of the dividends, he still didn’t manage things.
Qin Yun didn’t speak, seemingly contemplating.
Hu Congrong continued, "I am considering planning everyone’s responsibilities and obligations. If they aren’t fulfilled within a certain timeframe, we should adjust each person’s shares. Of course, when adjusted, the investment will be refunded according to a certain ratio."
At the start, everyone was enthusiastic and collaborated well, but over time, individual thoughts naturally emerged.
What Hu Congrong said likely didn’t reflect only her own thoughts; it probably represented others’ sentiments too.
They were a bit discontent with Qin Yun’s behavior of drawing dividends without participating.
Qin Yun pondered briefly and finally said, "Senior Sister Hu, after some thought, I think I should withdraw from Cyan Mist Hot Pot Restaurant."
"Withdraw?"
Upon hearing this, Hu Congrong was stunned. Her primary intent was for Qin Yun to be more involved rather than just sitting back and waiting to receive dividends.
"Yes, withdraw," Qin Yun nodded.
He didn’t have much to object to what Hu Congrong said. After all, in a company, just investing money without managing while others work hard, only for the dividends to outweigh their combined efforts, surely raises issues.
As Celestial Fortune Clothing expands, Qin Yun’s main focus would certainly be the clothing store.
As for Cyan Mist Hot Pot Restaurant, it had been a sudden investment idea, merely based on Yu Leyao’s delicious hot pot base research, and because they were short on funds, he casually invested.
In retrospect, this partnership model wasn’t suitable for him.
Unlike the clothing store, where he was the sole decision-maker, and Zhao Tianqiang was just a hired professional manager, whether he managed or not didn’t cause any issues.
The situation at the hot pot restaurant was clearly different, with six partners, each having their own agenda.
