Chapter 46: Chapter 46: Scumbag Aura
Chen Yu was also puzzled. Logically, even if Yang Hui was just putting on a show, he wouldn’t disrespect President Peng so openly.
’Did that comment President Peng just made offend him?’
’Does he hold a grudge that easily? Looks like I’ll have to be careful. Otherwise, I’ll be in trouble if he goes and complains about me to the chairman one day.’
After leaving the High-tech Zone Yida Department Store, Zhu Jing was still reeling from the shock of what had just happened.
Chen Yu’s full cooperation made it seem as if Yang Hui wasn’t just a department manager, but President Li himself in the flesh.
In Zhu Jing’s experience, the only person in all of Futong Commerce who could command such courtesy from President Chen was probably the big boss, Li Yang. Even President Shan was far from qualified, yet Yang Hui was.
The 50 vouchers from President Peng had also been arranged. The confirmation message arrived just as they walked out the door.
With these 100 vouchers, hitting 80% of the store’s performance target next month wouldn’t be a problem. It was just a shame it was too late for this month.
She didn’t know that Yang Hui had other tricks up his sleeve. Wang Qing was going to have all the stores compile the total value of the group purchases they negotiated for Airex today. He would then send the report to Yang Hui by tomorrow morning, leaving it up to him to decide how much of the group purchase performance would be credited to the Airex store in each mall.
It was already almost 5:30 PM. As operations managers, they had field positions, so they didn’t need to clock out back at the company office. They could just end their day from the store.
Zhu Jing returned to the store to share the good news with the store manager and boost her morale. Seeing hope for next month would be a great help in stabilizing the team. The manager could use this to persuade employees who were thinking of leaving to stay.
Meanwhile, Yang Hui drove to Cui Lin Pavilion, a private kitchen restaurant. He had plans to have dinner with Yang Na and discuss the matter of establishing their new commerce company.
Off-the-shoulder knit top, fishtail skirt, and strappy sandals.
Yang Na’s outfit was a little alluring. With her S-shaped figure, she was getting better and better at showing off her best assets.
She wore a gold bracelet, looking relaxed but not careless.
"First day at the new job. How’s it feel?"
It was a small private room with seating for four, exquisitely decorated.
He sat down across from her, took the glass of freshly squeezed kiwi juice she had poured, and took a sip.
"Not bad. Just experiencing life, you know?"
Yang Na pursed her lips. ’He’s not wrong,’ she thought. ’Driving a top-spec Mercedes E-Class to a day job, while also getting ready to open his own company.’
’I really don’t know what’s going on in his head.’ "Is it because Futong Commerce has more beautiful women?"
"Am I that shallow of a person?"
"Yes. You’ve always been a man of low tastes. You see a woman’s chest or butt and you can’t tear your eyes away!"
’Sigh. Once your glorious image crumbles, you can never get it back.’
’So I glanced at her chest and her butt. Does she really have to hold a grudge about it until now? Is it that big of a deal?’
"Let’s talk business~!"
Yang Na immediately sat up straight. Joking was joking, but when it came to business, she instantly became serious.
"I’m preparing to register a commerce company. The initial total investment will be two million, and the main business will be acting as an agent for trendy fashion brands. Are you interested?"
"I told you a long time ago, I’m interested! I’m in this with you!"
Yang Hui considered pointing out her poor choice of words, but then thought better of it. It would just be awkward to say it out loud.
"Alright, then. Do you want to be a shareholder, or just come work for the company?"
"I’ll invest 200,000. If you don’t have enough capital, I can figure out a way to scrape together 400,000!"
He thought for a moment. "Invest 200,000. Don’t overextend yourself. In the initial phase, you’ll be responsible for operations, merchandise, and all logistical matters. I’ll handle channel development and business negotiations."
"So basically, you’re in charge of the Channel Development Department, and I handle everything else?"
"You could put it that way. Except, I won’t hold an official position in the company. You’ll be the one in charge. The monthly salary will be tentatively set at 20,000 yuan."
He didn’t dare take an official position, fearing it would affect his "Unemployment Assistance System."
"20,000? You should save your money! 6,000 a month is enough for me!"
"Let’s not argue about this. I can afford to pay this salary."
He was confident. Whether it was NLB or Zen, as long as they secured a good location at Xinyue Square, the revenue wouldn’t be low. In the early stages, they would be operating with their own cash registers, so the cash flow would be very fast.
After the two settled the details of founding the company, Yang Na smiled and started gossiping about Ruijing Commerce.
"I heard Fang Zheng’s team had a major screw-up. He rushed to Xinyue Square this morning, and after he came back, he just holed up in his office and hasn’t come out. The rumor is that there’s a problem with their partnership with Xinyue Square."
Yang Hui smiled faintly. ’That’s to be expected, not surprising at all. Fang Zheng must be like an ant on a hot pan right now. If he can’t solve this problem, he probably won’t be able to hold on to his position as regional manager.’
Yang Na also revealed that this news came from Qin Hong, so it was highly reliable.
He didn’t continue the conversation about Fang Zheng. Back when he was at Ruijing, they had some conflicts at work. Fang Zheng liked to put on airs, and Yang Hui wasn’t one to tolerate any nonsense, so the two of them often clashed.
Now that he had the system, his sights were set on the stars. Wasting even a single glance on someone like Fang Zheng was a waste of his time.
Yang Na was going to be very busy for a while. She hadn’t officially resigned from Ruijing Commerce yet, so she still had some work to handle there.
The new commerce company involved business registration, renting an office and a warehouse. She brought up her own idea: they should be frugal with the office space in the beginning. After all, their capital was limited, and they were managing two brands at once, so there were many expenses.
Yang Hui agreed with this point. He didn’t have much money left himself. After subtracting the 1.8 million he was investing this time, he would only have 700,000 in cash left.
That amount was more than enough for a life of luxury, but in business, a single expense could easily run into the hundreds of thousands or even millions.
In the early stages, there wouldn’t be many people in the office anyway, so they could make do. After three months, once he resigned from Futong Commerce, he would be able to collect 30 million in unemployment benefits. Then they could improve the office environment.
She also had to recruit people. Hiring was the most difficult part when a company was just starting out. Fortunately, Yang Hui set the tone: salaries had to be at least 30% above the industry average, and even higher than the top end of the scale.
She had always known that Yang Hui was someone who didn’t mistreat his subordinates, so she wasn’t surprised by this at all.
When he was leaving Cui Lin Pavilion, he had the restaurant prepare a few exquisite small dishes. This was dinner for Wenren Du’Er.
Starting tomorrow, Liu Shasha was helping him by finding an "auntie" to come to the house and cook. Her skills were said to be on par with a professional chef’s. The little girl would finally no longer have to cook for herself.
Because Wenren Du’Er hadn’t eaten yet, he wrapped things up quickly with Yang Na after they finished discussing business. It was obvious that Yang Na was very disappointed.
"It would have been so nice to go for a walk or see a movie together," Yang Na said with her head lowered as she walked him to the parking lot.
A gust of evening wind blew her skirt, wrapping it against her body and revealing her S-shaped figure.
Before getting into the car, Yang Hui couldn’t help but stare intently for a moment.
"How about a hug~!"
Seeing her dejected look, he flashed a sunny smile. His charming eyes narrowed, giving off a total heartbreaker vibe.
Yang Na shot him a glare but opened her arms and let him give her a hug. The wind lifted her long black hair, and the scent of her shampoo was pleasant.
