It’s six o’clock in the afternoon, it’s already dusk!
Lan Weidong was sitting in his office, looking at the deserted shopping mall in front of him, feeling extremely gloomy.
Although today, even the last bit of skin has been pulled off, it has to be said that the effect is not very good.
Compared with yesterday, the turnover has increased, but the increase is very limited. And the profit is not worth mentioning.
He felt like he had not eaten the fish but had fish bones stuck in his throat. He wanted to swallow but couldn't, and he wanted to vomit but couldn't.
Just when Lan Weidong's heart was filled with despair, there was a gentle knock on the door.
Lan Weidong didn't want to see anyone at this time, but in the end, he still said come in. His position determines his choice.
Two people walked in, one was Ma Jindong, and next to Ma Jindong was the director of the sales department who was responsible for managing the waiters.
The director of the sales department is a shrewd middle-aged woman. In the past, she used to talk nonsense and make harmless jokes in front of Lan Weidong.
But now, when this middle-aged woman faced Lan Weidong, her face was full of awe.
"What's the matter?" Seeing that the director of the sales department didn't speak, Lan Weidong asked in a deep voice, with a hint of unhappiness in his voice.
"Mr. Lan, we are here just to ask for your permission to see if we have to work overtime tonight?" the director of the sales department gritted his teeth and said in a low voice.
Lan Weidong looked at the watch on his wrist and found that the hour hand was already pointing to six o'clock. According to the regulations of Jinpeng Mall, he should get off work at this time.
Yesterday it was extended to ten o'clock, and everyone was given five yuan.
This time when the director of the sales department came over, he probably had in mind the idea of letting him send money to them.
The thought of handing out money made Lan Weidong feel a little annoyed. He was quite clear about the current business situation.
If you work overtime until ten o'clock, you may not be able to earn the overtime pay. After all, their profit from selling things is very low now.
But if he didn't work overtime, he would be completely bowing to Mi Ke. He really didn't want to do this kind of thing. After all, this was only the second day of opening!
"Continue to work overtime until ten o'clock." After thinking for a while, Lan Weidong made such a decision.
The director of the sales department paused for a moment, then finally raised his head and said, "General Manager Lan, you can work overtime, but everyone has to work overtime..."
Although she didn't make it clear, Lan Weidong knew what she wanted.
"We'll talk about this later." Lan Weidong waved his hand with a hint of impatience in his voice. At this time, he also felt a trace of resentment towards the director of the sales department in his heart.
How long has it been since you were still only thinking about asking for money? Why can't you think more about other things and the difficulties we are facing now?
But Lan Weidong could only keep this thought in his heart.
"General Manager Lan, everyone worked overtime yesterday, and everyone is resentful because they didn't get paid. If we work overtime now and don't give everyone a happy word, we may not be able to explain it."
The director of the sales department finally gritted his teeth and said the words he didn't want to say at once.
As she spoke these words, Lan Weidong suddenly stood up from his seat!
At this moment, Lan Weidong was like an angry lion. He almost roared: "If anyone has any objections, please ask her to come to me."
"Tell them, just say that I asked for overtime work. If anyone feels that they can't do it, they can give me a resignation letter now."
"I'm going to approve it right now. Let me tell you, it's hard to find toads with three legs, but there are plenty of toads with two legs!"
Ma Jindong has been standing aside. He was not prepared to participate in this matter, but he did not expect that Lan Weidong would be so emotional at this time.
For a moment, he was caught off guard.
The director of the sales department, who was yelled at by Lan Weidong, hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and said: "General Manager Lan, I...I don't want to..."
"Okay, you go quickly and pass on General Manager Lan's message, saying that you must work overtime until ten o'clock today. If anyone doesn't work overtime, they will change positions tomorrow." Ma Jindong didn't wait for the sales director to finish.
He said firmly.
The director of the sales department also knew that there would be no good results if he stayed, so he glanced at Ma Jindong and left quickly.
But when leaving, the director of the sales department looked at Lan Weidong with less fear.
Lan Weidong waited for the door to be closed again before he slowly calmed down. He said to Ma Jindong: "Old Ma, have you seen it? It's only been two days and these people have stopped listening. I think it's going to happen."
Let’s kill this kind of culture!”
Ma Jindong said to Lan Weidong: "General Manager Lan, at this time, you can't mess with your rules."
"Just handle their affairs as you should. There is no need for you to be so angry with them."
Lan Weidong took a breath and said, "Yeah, I really lost my temper today."
As this sentence was finished, there was a silence in the office. Both Lan Weidong and Ma Jindong were not in a good mood at this time.
After a long while, Lan Weidong finally said, "Jin Dong, what's the matter with you coming over?"
"Mr. Lan, I just met a supplier who supplies us. He came to us and wanted to increase the price of the supply."
Ma Jindong said with a hint of deepness in his voice: "He said he had nothing to do and hoped we could forgive him."
How can Lan Weidong agree to increase the supply price? Because once the supply price increases, it means that Lan Weidong must increase the price of goods.
After taking a deep breath, Lan Weidong said in a deep voice: "What is his reason?"
"Shen Lin has re-signed the contract with them and asked for the best price. In other words, for the same supply, the price given to Mihu Electrical Appliances Mall is cheaper than the price given to us." Ma Jindong spread his hands and said: "
So, they’re going to raise our prices?”
Ma Jindong's explanation made Lan Weidong even more angry. He knew very well that for them, this move would simply drain the bottom of the fire.
But at this time, Lan Weidong calmed down completely. He said in a deep voice: "Shen Lin is taking advantage of the situation!"
"If he doesn't knock us down, it seems he's not going to give us a chance to breathe."
Ma Jindong didn't say anything. He also thought of Shen Lin's purpose, but faced this situation, he was helpless.
He came here to report, just waiting for Lan Weidong to make up his mind.
Lan Weidong took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed one to Ma Jindong, lit it and took two heavy puffs and said, "If we don't agree, are you not going to supply us with the goods?"
"He didn't say it, but I think that's what he meant." At this time, Ma Jindong's fat face had lost its smile.
Lan Weidong smoked while looking into the distance. The sun was about to set. At this time, all he could see was the clouds all over the sky.
"Then agree." Lan Weidong put out the cigarette butt in his hand and said helplessly.
