I Have a Wealth Gathering Array-Chapter 212: The Factory Director’s Concerns

Chapter 212: Chapter 212: The Factory Director’s Concerns

"What’s wrong with your face?" Sun Xiang asked curiously, noticing Jiang Xiaowei looking quite displeased.

"Cousin, don’t even mention it. I ran into a barbarian on the way." Jiang Xiaowei couldn’t help but speak up, still feeling furious inside.

"A barbarian?"

Sun Xiang and Sun Jiajia both felt a bit surprised.

"Oh, by the way, cousin, I saw the clothes you designed online."

Looking at Sun Xiang, Jiang Xiaowei said, "These clothes are really popular! I’ve bought two pieces myself.

"Xiaowei, you should recognize your sister’s design skills." Sun Jiajia said proudly, beaming confidently.

"Minister Sun."

At that moment, another woman in her thirties walked over and appeared to be pleasantly surprised to see Sun Xiang.

"Song Yu." Sun Xiang greeted the woman with a smile.

Song Yu was also a designer at Celestial Fortune Clothing in Jinling and previously worked at Uniqlo, but her skills were clearly weaker than Sun Xiang’s. Now she’s the second head of the design department at Celestial Fortune Clothing.

"Group Leader Song, are you here to see how the clothes you designed are selling?" Sun Jiajia looked at Song Yu, grinning as she asked.

Her words seemed harmless, but Song Yu’s smile faded somewhat, feeling uncomfortable inside.

She and Sun Xiang had been at odds before, and had conflicts with each other. Sun Jiajia, as Sun Xiang’s sister, naturally knew this, but she had Sun Xiang as backup, so she was not afraid of Song Yu at all. As soon as they met, she couldn’t resist making a few digs.

Because the clothes in the store designed by Song Yu sold noticeably less than those designed by Sun Xiang. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Yes, checking how the market is doing on my designs allows for improvement." Song Yu replied, smiling.

"Alright, I’m not going to talk more. You take your time, Minister Sun, I’m leaving." Without saying much more, Song Yu turned and left immediately.

Watching her leave, Sun Jiajia immediately said, "Humph, sister, this Song Yu has been trying to surpass you, but she’s been suppressed by you for years. She’ll probably only succeed in the next life."

She remarked bluntly.

"Jiajia, Song Yu’s capability is quite strong as well." Sun Xiang said calmly, "Don’t bad-mouth Song Yu in front of others."

"Sister, don’t worry, I know my limits."

Hearing Sun Xiang’s words, Sun Jiajia continued, "I’ll only say it to you."

The three of them browsed the clothing store for a while.

"Cousin, Jiajia, you’ve just returned to Jinling for two days, how about we grab something to eat?" Jiang Xiaowei smiled and suggested.

Sun Xiang was about to nod when her phone suddenly rang.

Sun Xiang answered the call and quickly hung up.

"Xiaowei, our clothing factory’s boss is back, I need to head there first."

"Then let’s go together. I’d love to see where my cousin works." Listening to Sun Xiang, Jiang Xiaowei smiled and said.

...

Qin Yun arrived at the clothing factory and Director Zhu Zhiyong immediately approached.

"Where’s Sun Xiang?" Qin Yun inquired.

"Boss, Sun Xiang is on her way, she’ll be here in about five minutes." Zhu Zhiyong quickly replied.

Qin Yun nodded, looking at Zhu Zhiyong, he spoke in a deep voice, "Director Zhu, during the interview, how did you discuss things with Sun Xiang? She completed her performance, and I agreed to raise her salary by four thousand. Why has the demand changed now?"

The salaries he offered were relatively high, especially for those who worked at large enterprises; he offered even higher wages.

Previously, Zhu Zhiyong had told him about Sun Xiang’s situation and had talked about the salary increase, and he had set conditions.

Now that Sun Xiang fulfilled the conditions, he naturally would keep his promise.

However, Sun Xiang’s conditions changed; seeing her clothes selling well, she prepared to request a commission based on the number of pieces she sold.

Actually, when signing the contract, it was clearly noted that the employees’ salaries at the clothing factory’s design department were not based on commission settlement.

"Well..."

Zhu Zhiyong replied nervously, "President Qin, right now, nearly half of the clothes sold from our factory were designed by Sun Xiang alone."

Sun Xiang had a very strong ability in clothing design, in his view she held a special status, and even as the factory director, he spoke very politely to Sun Xiang.

If she gets upset and leaves, the clothing factory could become significantly impaired.

His intention was clear; he didn’t dare to oppose Sun Xiang’s request.

"Being capable means one can disregard contracts and demand freely?" Qin Yun glanced at Zhu Zhiyong and replied in a deep voice.

Most of the sales came from the owing to the Wealth Gathering Array.

If she truly had the ability to design best-sellers at will, she wouldn’t have resigned from Uniqlo.

"Well..."

Zhu Zhiyong wiped the sweat off his forehead, silently for a long time.

Seeing his behavior, Qin Yun became displeased.

He hired Zhu Zhiyong back to manage the clothing factory so he wouldn’t have future worries, but he didn’t properly enforce the rules he set.

He had previously thought Zhu Zhiyong was competent, but now his impression of Zhu Zhiyong was seriously declining.

"The management still falls short; I’ll have to replace the factory director when time allows." Qin Yun thought silently, choosing not to speak further.

Sitting in the office, within a few minutes, a woman in her thirties came in.

"President Qin."

Sun Xiang greeted the young man before her.

"Minister Sun, please sit."

Qin Yun looked at Sun Xiang, his face devoid of expression, making it hard for anyone to interpret his thoughts, he pondered slightly and asked, "Minister Sun, I’ve already seen your application for commission."

Qin Yun spoke up, "According to our previously signed contract, you met the requirements, so the four thousand salary increase can be agreed upon; as for the commission, the factory doesn’t have plans for that yet."

"However, the clothing factory has expansion plans, it will expand again soon. At that time, your salary will be adjusted according to your sales performance."

He’s not foolish enough to angrily dismiss Sun Xiang for requesting commissions.

Currently, indeed, more clothes are sold from Sun Xiang’s designs, from the factory’s perspective if Sun Xiang leaves, it’ll likely impact Celestial Fortune Clothing in Jinling.

Expanding and salary adjustments were already part of his future plans.

Informing Sun Xiang in advance was no problem.

"President Qin."

Considering Qin Yun’s words, Sun Xiang spoke, "I’d prefer a commission-based settlement."

Every clothing company has its own salary settlement standards. Generally, a clothing designer’s salary is fixed. However, some companies stimulate employee motivation with measures like year-end bonuses or commission.

Commission is usually calculated based on the new product’s sales quantity, and the commission fees are determined by item count or sales revenue percentages.

Many highly outstanding clothing designers earn their salaries based on commissions, the more clothes they sell, the higher their salary.

This indirectly equates to having equity dividends.
