Chapter 100 Chen Jianghe: I'm still short of a secretary. Lin Siqi: I'll do it.
Chen Jianghe personally led the team to do business, so naturally he would not be like Li Jun who ran around and worked hard all day long, only to get nothing and not even get a potential merchant.
It is indeed difficult to deal with businesses in Shipai Village, because many restaurant stall owners are locals in the village, have little education, and speak poor Mandarin. When communicating with them, salesmen who cannot speak Cantonese will be at a disadvantage.
Chen Jianghe, Ye Xiaorong and the six veteran salesmen in Haizhu District are all Cantonese who can speak Cantonese, so communication is basically barrier-free. Occasionally, they can tell a few jokes or anecdotes to make the bosses laugh and easily and happily turn them into potential merchants.
However, intentions are just intentions, and there is still a long way to go before the formal signing of the contract. It requires more trips and continuous efforts.
While on business, Chen Jianghe specially bought a pack of Double Happiness cigarettes and went to the Public Security Management Committee of Shipai Village Committee. He used the cigarettes to become familiar with the uncles in the committee.
"Mr. Chen, when we entered the village just now, the guys wearing red armbands at the entrance of the village stared at us like we were guarding against thieves. Their eyes were so disgusting. Why did you buy them a pack of cigarettes?"
When Chen Jianghe walked out of the management meeting, Ye Xiaorong, who was waiting for him outside the door, asked in confusion.
"The environment in the urban village is bad and the public security is also poor. We may encounter troubles while doing business here. If we meet with the village committee, they may be able to take care of us when we encounter troubles." Chen Jianghe explained with a smile.
"I see."
Ye Xiaorong's eyes flickered. She didn't expect Chen Jianghe to be so thorough at such a young age. She couldn't help but feel ashamed and said, "Before, when my salesmen and I were running around the urban villages in Haizhu, we encountered a local tyrant who stopped us on the road and demanded protection money. He was so fierce that we ran away in fear. We never dared to enter that village again."
"It's right to run away. A powerful dragon cannot defeat a local snake, let alone us salesmen who have no followers."
Chen Jianghe smiled and said, "No matter what time it is, we must first ensure our own safety. As for performance, Guangdong is so big, we can achieve it if we put in some effort."
Ye Xiaorong looked at Chen Jianghe deeply. He was not only thorough in his work, but also good at management. His few simple words were heartwarming and made her feel like she was with the right person.
"No more talking, let's talk business."
Chen Jianghe lit a cigarette and strode towards the shop in front.
Ye Xiaorong followed closely behind. She followed Chen Jianghe the whole morning and carefully learned communication skills and negotiation details from him.
Speaking of which, Ye Xiaorong is six or seven years older than Chen Jianghe, and her dressing style tends to be mature and domineering. Logically, she should be the one taking Chen Jianghe to run business, but instead she follows him and learns like a younger sister, and never gets tired of it.
However, Chen Jianghe only accompanied her for the whole morning. After successfully signing two contracts, he treated everyone to lunch and then took a bus back to school.
After returning to school, Chen Jianghe first went to the counselor's office and got a list from Teacher Xu. The list included a batch of desks and chairs, filing cabinets, mobile blackboards and other items that were replaced from the administrative building, and even included a printer.
"Teacher Xu, with so many items, can I just sign and ask them to move them away?"
Chen Jianghe took the list and went to the storage room of the administrative building with Teacher Xu.
Seeing the items that had been cleared out, he was both pleasantly surprised and astonished. These things seemed to be things discarded from the administrative building, but in fact they were basically new, especially the printer, which was actually an imported product. It looked to be 90% new and could be used immediately after being moved out.
"I talked to Director Huang from the Youth League Committee about your entrepreneurship at school. He appreciated it very much. These items were approved by the Youth League Committee as support for your entrepreneurship." Xu Zhixi said with a smile.
"Hey, that's what I said. Teacher Xu is so nice to me."
Chen Jianghe smiled brightly. If the storeroom manager hadn't been there, he would have wanted to reach out and hug Xu Zhixi in his arms and kiss her a few times to express his gratitude.
"Don't smile foolishly. Ask someone to help you move things and hurry up to set up your entrepreneurial base. It will make me proud too." Xu Zhixi said.
"Yeah." Chen Jianghe nodded and immediately went back to the dormitory to call people.
A large group of boys were gathered together to move all these items into the takeaway group buying base of Chasing Lights. The originally empty first floor immediately had the feel of an office area.
Then go to the nearby flower and bird market, buy some potted plants and ornamental fish, and arrange them according to the feng shui layout. The office environment will instantly be upgraded by several levels.
After finishing these, Chen Jianghe called Lin Siqi over again.
"I'm still in need of a secretary."
Chen Jianghe took Lin Siqi for a tour up and down , then spoke with a smile.
"Oh?" Lin Siqi blinked. "Is it a personal ?"
"No." Chen Jianghe shook his head. "I mainly do secretarial work, handle documents, organize files, receive and send mail, express delivery, etc. When I have nothing to do, I help take care of these potted plants and raise fish. Occasionally, I do some HR work."
"That's all?" Lin Siqi was a little disappointed and sighed, "I thought I would follow you closely, accompany you on business trips, and attend social events."
"It's getting cold, and we need a girl to warm the bed. Would you like to do it?" Chen Jianghe asked her jokingly.
"No." Lin Siqi raised his chin and refused decisively: "You want me to help warm the bed, and then hug another girl to sleep."
"Haha, you're really good at judging people."
Chen Jianghe smiled unkindly.
"I'm so angry..." Lin Siqi bit her lip. It was just a casual remark, and she didn't expect that he really had such thoughts.
"Don't be angry, I'm just kidding. This kind of good thing only happens in dreams, how can it be possible in reality." Chen Jianghe smiled and said seriously: "Let's get back to the point. I really need a secretary as capable as you.
Chen Jianghe had long been aware of Lin Siqi's personal abilities. Whether it was class affairs or Youth League work, she was able to handle them with ease and in an orderly manner.
Chen Jianghe has always wanted to drag her into this. Asking her to borrow money for financing stock trading was just the first step. Now that he has started a business, calling her to be his secretary is the second step. Asking her to help count money when he becomes rich is the third step. Of course, this third step is still a bit far away, so let's put it on hold for now.
"Hmph." Lin Siqi was very happy to hear Chen Jianghe praising her for her ability, but she snorted and thought to herself, you haven't done it, how do you know if I can do it?
"What does 'hum' mean?" Chen Jianghe asked her with a smile.
"Humph, that means I agree." Lin Siqi put his hands behind his back, said with a little pride and seriousness: "Boss Chen, please call me Secretary Lin from now on."
"hold head high."
Chen Jianghe nodded, then cleared his throat and said, "Secretary Lin, go get me a glass of water."
"Okay, boss."
Lin Siqi is beautiful and has a sweet voice. She got into the role in a second. She walked gracefully to the water dispenser and poured a cup of warm water of the right temperature for Chen Jianghe. She blew on it gently before handing it to him.
"You found the right person."
Chen Jianghe grinned, holding the water cup, and glanced at the pretty and charming Lin Siqi standing next to him. He thought that with such a good figure, if she changed into a professional suit one day, she would definitely be an eye-catcher and add a touch of beauty to this newly opened entrepreneurial base.
By then, will you still be worried about not being able to recruit college students to work part-time?
"Hello, are you hiring part-timers here? I'd like to join."
Chen Jianghe was drinking water when suddenly a handsome boy who looked familiar walked in. He stared at him and Lin Siqi with burning eyes and asked seriously if they were still hiring part-time workers.
