Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again-Chapter 397 - 156: Another Capable Little Assistant!
Liu Wanyin’s eyes lit up.
She’s a "little miser" after all, trying to ease her family’s burden by all means.
Su Zelin’s words were very impactful.
"If I’m lying to you, I’m a dog!"
Su Zelin patted his chest and made a promise: "Xiaoliu, we’re so familiar with each other, even if I were to lie to someone, it wouldn’t be you!"
"Then, what about you?"
Liu Wanyin was tempted, but suddenly another question popped into her mind.
"Are you planning to resign?"
She didn’t think she had the ability to make Su Zelin step down.
Kang Baohong’s intention to support her could only mean one thing: Su Zelin was planning to leave the electronics store.
Unlike her, he wasn’t a poor student reliant on this part-time job. On the contrary, he was well-off, only working at the electronics store to gain social experience, so it wouldn’t be surprising if he quit at any time.
Liu Wanyin felt a bit reluctant; she didn’t want Su Zelin to leave.
"Not at all, I’ve been promoted!"
Su Zelin chuckled.
"Promoted?"
"The electronics store will have a new position for a supervising manager, with profit-sharing benefits. I’ve taken on that role!"
Su Zelin said mysteriously.
"Wow, store manager, oh no, manager, you’re amazing!"
Xiaoliu was impressed, thinking how incredible the class president was. He had landed the supervising manager position with profit-sharing, even while doing a side job. That’s impressive.
"Shh, keep it down, it hasn’t been officially announced yet, we need to keep a low profile!"
Su Zelin raised his index finger, making a shushing gesture.
He wasn’t lying to Liu Wanyin though.
New Era indeed planned to appoint a supervising manager for each store. Previously, this position was held concurrently by the general manager, Kang Baohong, but that was before they opened branches.
Now that there were two electronics stores, it was impossible for Kang Baohong to oversee everything as a general manager across multiple branches. A supervising manager was necessary and even indispensable.
Putting a supervising manager in charge made it justifiable to buy himself a small car; he could say it was a company car.
Otherwise, a college student driving a private car around campus seemed too showy, even flaunting wealth, which could make many uncomfortable and even create distance and barriers with fellow students.
But when it comes to a company car, that’s a different story.
"At the moment, I’m working as both the supervising manager and the store manager, but one person can’t handle so much work; it’s unsustainable, so sooner or later, we’ll need a successor for the store manager!"
Actually, Su Zelin could appoint Liu Wanyin anytime.
But she indeed didn’t have enough experience yet; it would be better to wait until the next semester.
By that time, junior employees would be seniors in their last year, busy with studies, internships, and preparing graduation projects, often resigning from the electronics store; hence, the appointment of a semester-long store manager wasn’t feasible.
This was the time to select someone from the sophomore staff, and no one would have any objections; by then, Liu Wanyin would have gained enough experience.
Thinking about this, Su Zelin casually said: "It’s all the same regardless of who gets it, naturally, we should promote a familiar face. After all, why let an outsider reap the benefits? Moreover, such an important job requires nurturing someone we trust. Wanyin, if you agree, you’ll be my trusted aide in the future, how about it?" 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
"Thank you, Manager Su, for the support!" Liu Wanyin stuck out her tongue: "Then I’ll give it a try!"
She finally made up her mind.
After all, such a good opportunity wasn’t always available.
Without someone supporting her, she didn’t know when it would be her turn!
So Liu Wanyin felt she couldn’t miss this.
Besides, her salary could potentially double, and this temptation was immense for a little miser.
Currently, her monthly basic salary plus commission was about five hundred, and doubling it would mean breaking a thousand.
That was a considerable sum, almost four times her previous odd jobs at the street food stalls!
"How can you just randomly give it a try, the role of the store manager is very important, you can’t just mess around casually!"
Su Zelin said earnestly: "Wanyin, it’s happily decided, barring any surprises, next semester you’ll be the new store manager of the Finance Academy branch. Get ready to take over the mantle from me and enrich yourself with more skills; being skilful with your hands isn’t enough!"
"Yes, I understand!"
Liu Wanyin nodded repeatedly, memorizing every word of Su Zelin, chanting them silently inside, afraid to forget.
Seeing her focused, attentive look, Su Zelin couldn’t help but chuckle to himself.
Girls like Wanyin, who are soft, are indeed easier to handle; she listened to everything like it was a royal decree, much more obedient than Ah Xi.
Now, he had a second capable and easily managed assistant to rely on.
Life’s good!
