Chapter 209 Temporary Store Manager
Although the prices of these three wood products are not cheap, many customers are still willing to spend money on them after understanding their functions.
As people came out with the things they bought from the Craftsmanship Workshop with smiles on their faces, passers-by could no longer contain their curiosity and entered the Craftsmanship Workshop one after another.
Many people have a herd mentality and believe that what everyone else is buying must be good stuff. Under the influence of this mentality, many people who originally had no intention of spending money at the Craftsmanship Shop also began to think about spending money and started picking out their favorite items in the store. Soon most of the shelves on the first floor of the Craftsmanship Shop were cleared out.
The current store manager of Jiangxinfang is named Huangshan, a middle-aged man with a square face. Huangshan is not his real name, but a new name he drew when Qian Laiye brought their group into the base to draw lots for a name-changing event.
Huang Shan has three and a half stars of business talent. Although he looks honest, he is very smart and knows how to adapt. He performed quite well during the special training.
Qian Laiye is the general manager of Lanzhou industries appointed by Lin Chuyi. Although he has the ability and confidence to manage these industries well, he is only one person after all and cannot take care of everything.
Just like this time when four stores were opened at the same time, Lin Wu was in Lulutong and Lin Miao was in Qilixiang. He didn't have to worry about these two stores, but Jiangxinfang and Yipintang both needed someone to be responsible for presiding over the opening affairs.
Qian Lai also chose Yipin Guo from the two stores, so he couldn't take care of both the Jiangxinfang stores.
After careful consideration, he decided to arrange a temporary store manager for Jiangxinfang first. Huangshan was the store manager that Qian Laiye finally determined after considering various factors.
Qian Lai also gave Huang Shan a three-month probation period. If Huang Shan's performance during these three months as store manager is impressive enough, he can officially become the real manager of the Jiangxinfang store.
If Huang Shan's performance is unsatisfactory, he may be replaced by Huang He, Huang Hai and others in the same team at any time.
It is for this reason that although Huang Shan became the store manager of Jiangxinfang, he did not dare to slack off at all. Today, he personally presided over the opening ceremony of Jiangxinfang.
In order to complete today's challenge, he revised the promotional slogan he had written based on the information given by Qian Laiye dozens of times, and then memorized it by heart.
In order to achieve better publicity effects, he practiced over and over again after work. Later, he simulated possible emergencies by himself and came up with response strategies and ways of speaking. He practiced over and over again to deepen his memory, and he almost made his lips bald from practicing.
Although he was still a little nervous when facing the crowds of people on the opening day, his practice during this period was not in vain and there were no mistakes. He successfully completed the opening introduction and transitioned to the formal business operation.
He had thought before that the merchandise in the Jiangxinfang store was novel in style and included many functional products that he had never heard of before, so when it opened, there would be no problem selling them.
As long as he can keep calm and get through the opening remarks, and then implement the solution given in advance by Manager Qian according to the actual situation on the scene, he will basically be sure to win.
But he never expected that at this time, the business of the store would be so good. It had only been open for a short time and many products were sold out.
Seeing this situation, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Manager Qian was worthy of being the chief manager. He had already anticipated the current situation, communicated with him in advance, and gave him a response plan.
Otherwise, if an inexperienced store manager were to face this situation directly, he would probably have no other options except asking the customer to choose other items.
If a customer made a fuss about the final ownership of an item, his tenure as temporary store manager would be over.
If the customers made a bigger noise, and there was bloodshed or a murder, then he would not be able to have any further development in his life, let alone become a store manager.
It's scary just to think about it. From this point alone, we can see the gap between him and Manager Qian. He still has a lot to learn from Manager Qian. He has to remind himself all the time not to become complacent because of temporary achievements and cause irreparable problems.
However, these are all matters for the future. The important thing now is to solve the problems at hand.
Huang Shan acted decisively upon seeing this and immediately began to implement the first plan. He picked up a pen and quickly made a list, which he handed to the Lulutong employee who had been waiting on the side, asking them to go to the employee residence of the Craftsmanship Workshop on his behalf and hand the list of items to the carpenter working inside.
After seeing the list, the carpenter will send someone to retrieve the woodworking products listed on the list, and then hand them over to Lulutong's people to transport the products to the Craftsmanship Workshop.
Lulutong sent a total of three people, led by Shitou, who had changed his name to Wang Lei, and the other two were Lulutong's new employees.
The three of them were sent here by Lin Wu early in the morning to wait for orders. Now that they received the task, Yang Lei borrowed Huang Shan's pen, quickly took out a booklet, filled in the order details in the booklet, and then handed the order certificate to Huang Shan for his signature to confirm.
After Huang Shan signed the certificate, Yang Lei put away the booklet, folded Huang Shan's list of items in half, put it close to his body, and turned to leave. The other two immediately followed, drove their car out of the gate of the Craftsmanship Workshop, and headed towards their destination.
After the three people left the Craftsmanship Workshop, Huangshan raised the loudspeaker again and began to convey the message to the noisy crowd that there was enough stock and that the goods were being transferred and there was no need to fight over them, in order to calm people's hearts and avoid physical violence.
With the help of the loudspeaker, Huangshan's voice was amplified and soon reached the ears of everyone present. The scene was quiet for a moment, and then immediately returned to its previous noise. However, the tense atmosphere from before slowly disappeared.
Huang Shan secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. To be on the safe side, he repeated what he had said before twice before putting down the loudspeaker and continuing his cashier work.
Since both parties had informed each other in advance, the handover between the two parties was very smooth, and the Lulutong employees successfully completed the delivery task.
Unexpectedly, the business of Craftsmanship Workshop was so good today that they had just unloaded the goods and had no time to take a break when they received a new delivery order from Huangshan.
So after they completed the process, they set off again without stopping. The Craftsmanship Workshop adjusted the inventory twice in succession, but the store soon fell into a state of supply exceeding demand.
Huangshan knew the inventory level of the products in the Craftsmanship Workshop. The carpenters did not know which products they made would be more popular in the market, so the reserve of each product was not large.
