Chapter 324: Happy to be of service

"Big sister, you can try them on. If you don't like them, you can just give them back to me. If you can't find suitable clothes, you don't have to buy them." An Yinan saw that the big sister's face showed some resistance, and naturally knew that she didn't really like plain colors.

Upon hearing this, the big sister's expression improved, "If I don't like them, I won't pay, you know."

"That goes without saying!" An Yinan nodded affirmatively.

The big sister first tried on the bright red top, nodding with satisfaction, until she tried on the clothes An Yinan had brought over, which An Yinan had already coordinated into a full set so she could try on the whole outfit at once.

"Is this... really me?" The big sister stood in front of the mirror and touched her face.

"It is you." An Yinan stood beside the big sister.

"Big sister, you are very beautiful, especially your eyes, which are even more lovely, but gaudy clothes don't really suit you," An Yinan explained.

The big sister reluctantly took off the clothes, then carefully set them aside, and tried on the second set. Standing in front of the mirror, she looked at herself in the mirror, unable to believe it.

An Yinan didn't speak, just stood to the side to keep her company.

This big sister changed into two more sets, and finally folded the eight pieces of clothing, "I have to say, you girl, your eye for style is too good."

An Yinan crossed her hands over her lower abdomen with a smile on her face, "This is what I should do. I am very happy to be of service to you."

"Good, good, good. Just wrap up all these eight pieces for me. Oh, and for those two, change them to a smaller size, about twenty jin thinner than me. I'll take them back to give to my younger sister." This big sister bought ten pieces of clothing directly, not only buying the four sets An Yinan had picked out, but also buying the red top and black pants she had looked at initially.

An Yinan wrote out the receipt and then said to the big sister, "Within one day, if your sister finds they don't fit, don't remove the tags, and you can come to the shop to exchange them for the right size."

"Okay, your shop is just a bit out of the way, otherwise I would definitely bring friends to patronize it." The big sister left with a chuckle.

Excluding the time spent changing clothes, it had only been twenty minutes in total.

Wu Xia looked at An Yinan with admiration, "Nan is just too amazing. If it were me, I definitely couldn't do that."

"What are you spacing out for? Get busy," Zhao Qiu Hua patted Wu Xia's arm and reminded her.

"Coming, coming." Wu Xia came back to her senses and hurriedly got busy.

People were coming and going in the shop, even more than on the first day.

Fortunately, there was inventory at the workshop, and through factory customization, the workshop here only needed to sew the semi-finished products from the two factories.

Yesterday, not only did the shop give out red envelopes, but the workshop did as well, though each person's red envelope only contained one yuan.

That was enough to make those people happy for half a day.

It wasn't about favoring one over the other; it was mainly because the workshop used piece-rate wages, where for every piece made, they were paid for that piece.

As for the shop, it currently had fixed wages. These girls were young, and An Yinan specifically proposed fixed wages for fear that their parents would be worried.

Later on, she would implement commission-based wages; the more they sold, the more they would earn.

If she had talked about commission-based wages at the very beginning, she probably would have been treated as a swindler, right?

There was still no break at noon, but this time An Yinan had experience and had someone deliver food in advance.

"Just like yesterday, everyone take turns eating, otherwise you won't be able to hold up in the afternoon," An Yinan arranged.

Having gone through the chaos of the first day, although there were more people on the second day, everyone was much more orderly.

Some girls who didn't dare to speak up on the first day had already started taking the initiative to introduce items and coordinate clothes for customers on the second day.

After a busy day, An Yinan gave out red envelopes to everyone as usual.

"Nan, yesterday was already a lot, I don't want one today," Wu Xia said.

Their wages were already that high, and receiving these daily red envelopes made her feel uneasy.

An Yinan smiled, "For now, it's a fixed wage, but in the future, I will specifically evaluate your business performance. Those who want to switch to commission-based wages can also come to me to understand the situation, but that will have to wait until the shop is stable."

An Yinan was still very satisfied with these girls, and she was also consciously cultivating a few of them. As subsequent shops opened, these people would be the managers of each shop.

"Just take this red envelope," An Yinan distributed the red envelopes to the four people.

The four people had smiles on their faces, their little faces flushed red, and they thanked An Yinan, "Thank you, Nan."

"Inventory the goods, and then everyone can get off work."

"Tomorrow is the last day, everyone stand your last post well!" An Yinan instructed.

The four little girls nodded one after another and then began to work hard.

An Yinan and Li Xiue counted the money, while Zhao Qiu Hua and Xie Yuanyuan counted the goods.

The shipments had been too heavy these past few days, and the workshop had to work overtime.

"Done." An Yinan had already organized the receipts and calculated the total amount.

Li Xiue hadn't finished counting the money yet.

Unexpectedly, the revenue for the second day hit a new peak, two thousand yuan more than yesterday.

"I'm done too, let's check the amounts." Li Xiue put down the money in her hand and wrote a number on a piece of white paper.

The two of them spread them out to compare, and they were completely identical.

"When I balance the accounts, the thing I fear most is them not matching, as then I'd have to search for the reason over and over again," Li Xiue let out a sigh of relief.

An Yinan smiled, "It's okay, take your time."

Li Xiue calculated the costs and profits according to the form and handed it to An Yinan, "Manager An, please sign."

After An Yinan looked it over and recalculated it once, there were no problems, so she signed it.

"Please take care of today's cash," Li Xiue said.

Although she was the Accountant, she lived at the school, and the security there was too poor.

It was only because of these three days of opening that she had taken two days off to be able to stay at the Xiao Yuan.

An Yinan didn't decline and put the money into her backpack. After seeing the backpack, she suddenly had an idea.

Could she launch a matching series of bags?

She had designed thirty sets of spring clothes in total, and now all the clothes in the shop were designed by her and had already been patented.

"Nan Nan, I need you to check the inventory," Zhao Qiu Hua said.

Liu Jiumu had delivered the semi-finished inventory from the workshop in the afternoon, and the shop had also finished calculating the inventory in the evening.

"We need the factory to ship more goods," Zhao Qiu Hua said.

At the current pace of these past few days, I'm afraid it won't be able to hold out for too long.

An Yinan looked at the serial numbers of these few types, then thought for a moment before saying, "Make fewer of them; we'll launch the new styles in a month."

"Oh right, for the new styles, I want to have Zhou Ruoran participate in the design," An Yinan said.

"We don't understand design anyway, so you just make the call," Zhao Qiu Hua said directly.

An Yinan thought for a moment, "For the few items I've marked out, let's set it at two thousand sets, but they need to be categorized by serial number."
