Back to the 1970s: Building My Fortune Through Time Trading-Chapter 444: Day Off

Seeing the two of them looking timid, Su Xiaoxiao found it hard to watch.

The general manager doesn’t bite, look how scared they are.

Su Xiaoxiao was the first to speak: "Comrades, this is our general manager. Weren’t you here to discuss cooperation? What are you waiting for."

As she spoke, she winked at the two of them.

She definitely can’t let the general manager know that she has shares in the hot sauce factory.

At least for now, she is still the sales manager for the department store on the surface. If people found out she was running a factory outside, it would be hard to explain.

Hu San and Chen Hai exchanged glances, hesitatingly pushing each other.

"You speak!"

"Why don’t you speak?"

Su Xiaoxiao felt her brow twitching, they were quite fluent with her before, why do they become uneasy in front of the main person?

In the end, Chen Hai stood up as a leader: "Hello, General Manager Yan. We are from the Chuan City Hot Sauce Factory. Apart from hot sauce, our factory also produces beef sauce and mushroom beef sauce, among others. They’re quality assured and taste excellent. If possible, we hope to sell them in your department store, and we can discuss profit distribution."

While speaking, Chen Hai took out the samples they brought and laid them on the desk one by one.

"Is this beef sauce produced by your factory?"

Seeing the familiar packaging, Yan Guohua immediately got excited.

This beef sauce was brought to him by Su Xiaoxiao after her last business trip, and his wife really liked it.

Unfortunately, there was only that one jar. Later, he wanted to buy more from Su Xiaoxiao, but she had no stock either. He never expected the supply to come knocking on his door today.

He only tasted two mouthfuls of the beef sauce, the rest was finished by his wife. His wife has always been a picky eater, so the taste is obviously not an issue.

Now that it’s cold, there’s hardly any vegetables in the fields. Every household relies mainly on cabbage, radish, and potatoes. If these sauces could be sold in their department store, he could almost guarantee they would be successful in Binhe City.

Without any hesitation, he immediately made the decision: "No problem, as long as your products arrive, I can arrange for them to be shelved right away."

These are good products, definitely a hot sell. It’s perfect timing to launch these with the upcoming year-end sales event.

Hu San and Chen Hai had prepared many sales pitches for the meeting but didn’t expect they wouldn’t need them at all. The general manager agreed directly, so smoothly.

Thus, the partnership was settled. On that very day, Chen Hai called back to Chuan City.

Only then did Su Xiaoxiao know that after they made money selling hot sauce, the village had installed telephones and modern communication was very convenient.

"Wow, not bad, you’ve even installed telephones."

Su Xiaoxiao joked.

Hu San scratched his head, somewhat embarrassedly speaking: "We’ve not only installed telephones, all the roads in our village have been renovated. Right now, quite a few households have built new houses with money earned from working. Sister Su, when do you have time to come and visit us? It will surely surprise you."

At this point, Chen Hai added with a smile: "Now, everyone in the village says you’re our village’s great benefactor and living Buddha. When we arrived, the village chief even discussed wanting to build a statue of you or something."

Hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao’s mouth twitched, saying there’s no need for that. She’s still alive, no need for incense offerings; she’s afraid it might shorten her life.

Originally, she didn’t believe in these things, but ever since she transmigrated to this world, she started to believe.

Every time Liu Cuilan would pray to gods and Buddhas, she’d also join in, figuring it wouldn’t hurt.

"Sister Su, now that the sales channel is sorted, we’ll get ready to head back to Chuan City tomorrow. Is there anything else you need? We’ll send it over to you."

After arriving and immediately sorting out sales channels, they were ready to return the way they came.

Su Xiaoxiao thought about how, when she went to Chuan City, Chen Hai and Hu San had been very helpful. Since they came all this way, she should show some local hospitality.

Su Xiaoxiao: "The factory has Xiuxiu and the village chief, so there’s no rush for you to return. I’ll have a day off the day after tomorrow, why don’t I show you around Binhe City."

The two of them looked at each other, a bit tempted.

Previously, when they came several times, they were always in a rush and never had the chance to properly explore or play around here. This was a great opportunity.

Now that the factory is running smoothly, even if they’re gone for a month or so, it shouldn’t cause any major issues. The two of them thought it over and nodded in agreement.

"Alright, Sister Su, then we’ll follow your arrangement."

After discussing, Su Xiaoxiao told them to explore on their own tomorrow, and the day after when she’s off, she’ll take them around.

The year-end promotional sale was in full swing, and Su Xiaoxiao went around helping out at various stalls.

She’s like a brick, moved wherever she’s needed.

Busy all afternoon, she felt totally exhausted by evening and ready to collapse.

The other sales staff were also worn out, each tired and thirsty with aching muscles.

As soon as it was time to clock out, everyone quickly packed their things to go home.

It felt like they were worked like dogs all day long, they needed to hurry home to rest.

Su Xiaoxiao also quickly packed up to head home.

At that moment, Chen Meilan came over, clearing her throat to speak.

"Good news everyone, the sales target originally planned for three days has been reached in only two days. To reward your hard work, everyone’s salary will be doubled this month, plus, you all get a day off tomorrow to rest."

"Ahh...that’s great, our department store leaders finally acted human!"

"I’ve been dead tired these two days, tomorrow I definitely need to stay home and rest properly."

"Same here, I want to sleep at home tomorrow, these past two days have been so busy I haven’t slept well."

Everyone was chatting excitedly, joy evident on their faces.

The year-end promotion was a huge success, not only raising their pay but giving them an extra day off.

If every time could be like this, they’d happily work themselves to exhaustion.

"Alright, if there’s nothing else, everyone hurry home and rest."

With Chen Meilan’s final words, everyone cheerfully grabbed their belongings and headed out.

When Su Xiaoxiao passed by, Chen Meilan called her over.

"Manager Su, could you come over for a moment, I have something for you."

Constantly receiving things from Su Xiaoxiao, Chen Meilan thought she should reciprocate.

Su Xiaoxiao followed her to the office and saw Chen Meilan took out a paper bag and handed it to her. She peeked inside and found it was filled with candy.

All kinds of candies, though she couldn’t understand why the wrappers were all red.
