Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

After National Day, Wang Erhai fired six salespeople from his team in one go; five were fired for privately poaching orders, violating company rules, and one was officially fired for failing to meet performance targets, but in reality it was because he had privately reported others.

Those five employees fired for privately poaching orders not only failed to receive double commissions, but didn't even get their original order commissions, ending up with nothing for their cleverness in finding loopholes, paying a painful price.

Wang Erhai did this; although it was justified, it was actually quite ungrateful.

When those five salespeople privately poached orders earlier, he knew all about it; in order to win the betting agreement, he didn't stop them immediately, but waited until after the betting ended before using thunderous measures.

This is nakedly grinding the mill and killing the donkey.

But this is the cruel reality.

Similar things happen constantly in this society.

Many small employees think they're clever, find company loopholes to skim profits, and even think they can deceive heaven and cross the sea, thinking company bosses are all idiots.

Little do they know the boss has seen everything.

The boss is just waiting for you to fatten up before killing you.

Wang Erhai's layoff directly turned the company from loss to profit; during the National Day holiday they sold so many houses, and the 2% commission on all those violating orders went entirely into the company account.

As for those fired employees, no compensation is needed; they violated the rules themselves and were wrong first, so what compensation should be given?

Even suing would be useless.

But Wang Erhai still paid them their full monthly salary; deducting the violating orders, for the orders completed earlier, whatever should be given was given, so as to shut their mouths.

Someone might say, this company isn't big to begin with, firing so many people at once—won't it affect company operations?

Wang Erhai considered this question too, but his final conclusion was that firing these people would have no negative impact on the company at all.

Because after National Day, the housing market enters a decline period, customers with home-buying intentions drop sharply, the company can operate fine with fewer people, and keeping them would just mean feeding them for nothing.

Also real estate sales isn't high technology, the threshold isn't high, even saying there's no threshold at all, anyone can do it; firing most of those original melons and cracked dates who focused on sincerity also makes it easier to adjust the company's future operating strategy.

For future hiring, he'll let Liu Mei Qi be responsible, hiring employees according to Liu Mei Qi's standards.

Because facts have proven that Liu Mei Qi's approach is indeed much more effective than the one focused on sincerity.

But the core values posted on the company wall are still sincere management.

You, an employee, can play tricks on customers, but when facing the boss, you must be sincere, even loyal; without this quality, unless you're very capable, otherwise you can only get lost.

Because of Wang Erhai's changes, many people below complained.

"A small company is a small company, learning Alibaba's values, in the end still showing its true colors."

At that time, society's worship of Alibaba and Ma Yun could be said to have reached its peak.

They indeed did very well; that values system was very loud externally.

If not for the Jiang Mou incident that appeared later, Alibaba's values system could have continued to deceive those simple migrant workers.

The reason those migrant workers work for a lifetime is that the ideological brand planted in them isn't much different from rural elders like Wang Zhanggen and Li Xiulan; they always hold high the moral flag and judge others morally, not knowing that in this society, ability is the permit to survive, and morality is just a bonus point.

Of course, companies that hold high values will definitely be affected when values collapse.

Big companies are like this, small companies are also like this.

It mainly depends on how you respond.

Wang Erhai's response was simple: gradually phase out those original old employees; new employees don't know the company's past, so naturally they won't object to the company's values.

So next Wang Erhai issued another regulation, raising employee commission rates, while adding a harsher elimination mechanism.

Once this regulation came out, it quickly phased out all the employees he had personally recruited, and even several recruited by Liu Mei Qi were eliminated for failing to meet performance targets.

Company personnel turnover became very high.

Liu Mei Qi had many complaints about this.

In a small county town there aren't many talents to begin with; if this continues, is there any point in doing business?

Wang Erhai had his own calculations; he didn't argue, only said he would consider lowering the assessment standards, but he needed some time.

As for business matters, he didn't need to worry at all; as the sole general sales agent for Spring City Garden, even if Shanhai Real Estate had no transactions in a short time, it could still channel a certain amount of cash flow monthly through distributing sales rights.

"Wang Erhai, I didn't expect you to be even more ruthless than me when doing things."

Liu Mei Qi couldn't help but sigh.

She thought she was already ruthless and decisive enough; she could become Rangsheng's former sales champion, so she had some skills.

But now facing Wang Erhai's series of operations, she felt she was still too gentle with her subordinates.

Is this guy's heart made of ice? How so cold-blooded.

Facing Liu Mei Qi's words, Wang Erhai smiled:

"Thank you for the compliment; let's make Shanhai Real Estate strong and big together, make the performance look good, so you can also give Director Zhang an explanation."

Liu Mei Qi was surprised; she never expected that when this guy said she was cold-blooded, he actually took it as a compliment.

Liu Mei Qi was speechless.

Just then, Wang Erhai's mobile phone rang.

It was Niu Chunsheng calling.

"Hello, Uncle Chunsheng, what's wrong?"

"Erhai, I just saw Spring City Garden's National Day financial statement; performance completely exceeded my expectations, you did very well, not letting down my expectations of you! I plan to hold a celebration banquet; you must come then, after all you're the biggest contributor!"

On the other end of the phone, Niu Chunsheng was full of spring breeze and high spirits.

Spring City Garden could be said to have made a splash during National Day, making this big boss behind the scenes earn a basin full and a bowl full!

And all this was inseparable from this sales agent Wang Erhai, so naturally he thanked Wang Erhai.

"Uncle Chunsheng, don't worry, no matter how busy I am, I'll make time to attend the celebration banquet you're hosting. Give me the time and place, and I'll definitely be there on time!"

Wang Erhai replied with a laugh.

He felt gratitude toward Niu Chunsheng.

If it weren't for Niu Chunsheng giving him the sales agency rights to Spring City Garden, then even with great ability, he would have been unable to put it to use.

"Fine, it's settled then. Tomorrow at noon, 12 o'clock, Huangsheng Hotel. Bring Liu Mei Qi along too!"

Niu Chunsheng said with a hearty laugh.

"Fine, fine, see you tomorrow at noon!"

Wang Erhai had just hung up Niu Chunsheng's call when he received another call from his mother Li Xiulan.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Wang Erhai asked patiently.

Li Xiulan's voice came from the other end of the line:

"Erhai, can you come back for a trip tomorrow at noon?"
