"Our school starts on September 1st. Shall we go together then?" Zhou Yang looked at Qin Yun and asked.
"No."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yun shook his head. "I'm leaving on the 30th."
"Why are you going so early?" Zhou Yang asked curiously.
After learning that Qin Yun had also opened a clothing store in Jinling, Zhou Yang was speechless for quite a while and then said, "Dude, you are really pushing yourself."
He was someone content with the status quo, and just thinking about handling such matters gave him a headache.
"The younger you are, the more energy you have to fight," Qin Yun smiled. "Are you interested in helping out at the clothing store in Jinling when you're free?"
Zhou Yang also chose Jinling, but for a different university.
"Forget it, I'm not planning to work during college." After thinking for a moment, Zhou Yang shook his head.
He came from a well-off family, never worried about food and clothing; he was also rather laid-back.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yun said no more and shifted the conversation to other topics.
Zhou Yang had been in the same school as Qin Yun through elementary, middle, and high school. Their bond was almost as close as brothers, so if he could lend Zhou Yang a hand, he naturally would.
But since Zhou Yang was not willing, then that was that.
"Qin Yun, did you know? Sun Jianqiang, who always liked to flaunt his wealth in class, is planning to repeat the senior year," Zhou Yang chuckled.
"Sun Jianqiang repeating a year?" Qin Yun was a bit surprised to hear this.
Ever since Qiyun Clothing Store closed down, he hadn't seen Sun Jianqiang. Hearing this name again now, it felt like it had been a long time.
Back then, it was on purpose that Qiyun Clothing Store went from selling affordable clothes to high-priced ones, leading Sun Yadong to lose hundreds of thousands, sell off a store to cover the losses.
"Yeah, other classmates told me they saw him at school and specifically asked the teacher about Sun Jianqiang's situation."
Zhou Yang chuckled, "It's killing me with laughter. The guy who used to be so smug in class is now having to go through senior year again. Too bad I can't see him now, or I would definitely laugh in his face."
Many in the class were annoyed by Sun Jianqiang's flaunting behavior, and seeing him having to repeat a year, they were somewhat schadenfreude.
Qin Yun smiled, but he had no further thoughts on the matter. As expected, Sun Jianqiang would probably not have much to do with him in the future.
...
Time continued to pass, and everything proceeded in an orderly fashion. The four stores continued booming, only Celestial Fortune Clothing's clothes kept piling up more and more.
Meanwhile, Celestial Cloud Shoe Factory was also established, with staff recruitment completed.
Over in Jinling, all three stores were fully renovated, and staff were gradually being recruited.
Just like that, time quickly slipped by, and it was already the 30th.
Qin Yun was also ready to officially set out to attend university in Jinling.
"Yun, you really don't want us to come with you?" Zhao Mei looked at her son and couldn't help but ask.
Many parents accompany their children to college, considering they typically only return for long holidays or winter and summer breaks.
"Mom, I've already been to Jinling once, what are you still worried about?" Qin Yun smiled.
At this moment, Zhao Mei looked visibly healthier than before.
The current life was incomparable to the past. With more stores opening, under Qin Yun and Qin Xuan's persuasion, she no longer busied herself in the shop, merely visiting each store and factory comfortably.
"Yun."
Beside Zhao Mei, Qin Guodong patted him on the shoulder, smiling, "I know you're capable, and I don't have much to teach you, so I'll just say this: Do business, and earn what we deserve."
As he said this, Qin Guodong's expression grew serious.
Everyone knew their child had promise, but his son was overly accomplished, which made him somewhat worried.
"Dad, I understand." Seeing Qin Guodong's serious expression, Qin Yun nodded solemnly.
After chatting with his parents, Qin Yun looked over at Qin Xuan.
"Yun, more than ten thousand pieces of clothing have been shipped to Jinling, they'll arrive by noon today," Qin Xuan said.
"I know."
Qin Yun nodded and said, "Big sis, I'll leave this to you."
After several months, Qin Xuan now managed two factories and four stores with ease. He was completely at ease leaving it to her.
Finally, Qin Yun got into the car and set off once more for Jinling.
...
By noon, Qin Yun arrived at that 200-square-meter store in the Jiangning District commercial street in Jinling.
"President Qin." Upon arriving, Zhao Tianqiang was also there, along with Qin Xiaotao and sixty others.
According to Qin Yun's requirements, each of the two 40-square-meter clothing stores needed to have eight staff, four per shift.
As for the 200-square-meter store, Qin Yun calculated based on the premise that the secondary Wealth Gathering Array was three times more effective than the primary one, so the store had twenty-four staff, twelve per shift.
Altogether, there were exactly forty staff members.
Zhao Tianqiang naturally had his own opinions on staffing; in his plan, hiring so many people wouldn't be feasible. But Qin Yun insisted, so he had to follow through.
"President Qin, this is Zhou Jinlan, Hu Qian, and Zhang Yiyi. Zhou Jinlan has worked as a store manager for a clothing store for three years, while Hu Qian and Zhang Yiyi have also had experience running small clothing stores," he introduced.
These three were recruited to be in charge of the three stores. Technically, a few dozen square meters hardly qualified for a store manager's position.
Looking at the three, Zhou Jinlan and Hu Qian appeared to be in their thirties, while Zhang Yiyi looked about twenty-five or six.
In terms of appearance, Hu Qian was quite pretty, while Zhou Jinlan and Zhang Yiyi were average.
"President Qin."
Facing Qin Yun, the three of them did not dare to hesitate and quickly greeted.
Qin Yun's clothing store offered a basic salary with attendance and performance bonuses totaling five thousand, with Hu Qian and Zhang Yiyi having a maximum salary of six thousand, and Zhou Jinlan's was eight thousand.
These were certainly considered high wages.
Even though Jinling City was very developed, clothing store salaries generally weren't high.
High cost of living, low wages—this was a common issue in many cities.
"Hmm." Qin Yun nodded to the three.
Their resumes had been compiled into a document by Zhao Tianqiang and sent to him via WeChat, each with a decent CV.
Glancing at the crowd, Qin Yun familiarized himself with everyone briefly.
"Manager Zhao, the ten thousand pieces of clothing have already arrived. Make sure to enter the clothing barcodes into the cash register system. Our three Celestial Fortune Clothing stores open in two days, so all prep work must be completed…" Looking at Zhao Tianqiang, Qin Yun quickly said.
Zhao Tianqiang nodded, "The prep work is basically done, only the clothing barcodes need entering and the items need arranging."
Soon, all three clothing stores were bustling, making the final preparations for Celestial Fortune Clothing's opening.
