80s: The cold-faced tough guy was controlled by the beautiful woman

Chapter 359 Full of Advantages
"I'll just copy it, I'm too lazy to look at it." Li Yingtang has been frequently visiting the market lately, and she knows exactly what each cabinet store is like.

The goods in her shop are of superior quality, and she is not afraid of others comparing prices.

There are always a few days a month when business is slow; it's normal for it to be quiet.

She looked at the receipt; there were five orders today.

Zhao Xue has three.

Recently, Zhao Xue's daily order volume has surpassed Meng Qin's.

This girl hasn't been here long and doesn't talk much, but she's quite good at closing deals.

She said, "Xiao Zhao, I'm planning to open a new store. How about you be the store manager? I'll assign you an assistant."

Zhao Xue asked hesitantly, "Am I capable?"

"I think you can do it," Li Yingtang affirmed.

"Where do you work?" Zhao Xue was more concerned about the workplace location, as it would be inconvenient if it was too far away.

Li Yingtang: "You live on Hexi Road?"

"Yes, boss, you have a great memory." Zhao Xue didn't forget to flatter him.

Li Yingtang smiled and said, "It only takes ten minutes or so to get to work here. If it were a half-hour commute from here, would you consider it?"

I need to ask my parents.

Li Yingtang: "Okay, go home and discuss it. Do you know about the store manager's salary?"

"I don't know." Zhao Xue had just come to ask Meng Qin about her salary, but Meng Qin was evasive and wouldn't tell her.

"We'll add forty to our base salary, and we'll receive an extra month's base salary during the Chinese New Year," Li Yingtang said.

Zhao Xue was excited. Forty yuan more a month, plus an extra month's salary at the end of the year, added up to a considerable sum: "Okay, I agree, I'll go no matter how far away it is."

Li Yingtang smiled and said, "I won't make you commute too far." She still cared about her employees; these were young girls, seventeen or eighteen, and she wouldn't feel comfortable letting them commute too far. "It's 4:30, time to go home." She took the money from the store and left.

Not long after leaving the shop, she heard Meng Qin call out to her, "Boss, boss."

Li Yingtang stopped the car: "Xiao Meng, what's wrong?"

"Zhao Xue is going to the new store, and I'm all alone? I definitely won't be able to handle it." Business at the store has been slow these past few days, compared to the height of summer.

Measuring and placing orders—she was so busy she couldn't possibly manage it all.

Li Yingtang: "Look how scared you are. She hasn't left. The renovations have started now, and it won't open until after New Year's Day. Besides, the location hasn't even been chosen yet. When Zhao Xue goes to the new store, your store will definitely have a new person to take her place. I just need you to guide and train the next Zhao Xue."

Meng Qin chuckled, "It's my duty. I thought I was the only one."

"."

Li Yingtang sent Meng Qin away and went to the cosmetics store.

It was past five o'clock, and only Ren Yuan and Xiao Ma were in the store; everyone else had gone home.

Xiao Ma: "Good afternoon, boss."

Li Yingtang's eyebrows twitched slightly: "Hello, working overtime today?" The sun must have risen in the west; you usually run faster than a rabbit.

"My classmate invited me to go to the night market," Xiao Ma said.

Li Yingtang: "Male or female?"

“Male, college student.” Xiao Ma glanced at Ren Yuan as he spoke.

If you ignore me, there are plenty of other people who will.

Li Yingtang started to worry: which male classmate was going to invite a female classmate to the night market late at night? Xiao Ma was pretty, but also a bit silly.

I hope I'm not being scammed.
She said, "Don't be late for work tomorrow."

"I'm off tomorrow," Xiao Ma said.

Li Yingtang: "Then we can hang out a lot. What classmate? Which university do you go to?" "A junior high classmate. I didn't ask which university you go to, I just heard you're a university student."

"Heared about it? Never been in contact before? Is it a blind date? Can college students date?" Li Yingtang pondered.

"Yeah, I went on a blind date the other day. He said he's open to dating with marriage in mind." Xiao Ma blushed.

She herself didn't get into university, but she always wanted to find a university graduate to elevate her own intellectual level.

Li Yingtang: "Xiao Ren, is it the same at your school?"

"I don't know. The school rules only say that you can't date, but it should be allowed if you're looking to get married."

Li Yingtang couldn't find fault with it, so she found a new angle to try to stop Xiao Ma from going to the night market with others. She said, "My boyfriend works part-time as a consultant for the criminal investigation team. There was a murder case in the city recently, and the murderer hasn't been caught yet. You'd better stay at home."

Xiao Ma questioned, "Really? Are you just trying to scare me? It wasn't reported in the news. Xiao Zheng and the new Xiao Liu said that you wouldn't let them go on blind dates during the interviews because you were afraid I'd get married and no one would work for you, so you stopped me from going on blind dates, right?" He himself married a college graduate, but she's not allowed to?
Li Yingtang: "." Working for her? Didn't she pay her wages? She glanced at the other person: "The store's new rules only apply to them, not to you. Take it or leave it, but you have to believe the murder case." She wasn't exaggerating; there really was a murder case in the west of the city.

At this moment, Qin Xian arrived.

Xiao Ma asked him for confirmation: "Comrade Qin, the boss said there's been a murder case in the west of the city recently, is that true?"

Qin Xian confirmed: "Yes, in the courtyard on Yongmei Road, a young couple was murdered, and the murderer has not yet been caught."

Xiao Ma had no choice but to believe her. Valuing her life, she said, "Xiao Ren, if someone comes to my door at 5:30 and you haven't left yet, could you please let them know that I have to leave first?"

Ren Yuan was annoyed by Xiao Ma's stupidity. The boss was clearly worried that she would be deceived. Even when Xiao Ma first approached him, the boss gave her all sorts of advice, but the woman wouldn't listen to a word he said.

I really don't know what the boss is after, treating such an ungrateful wretch so well.

He replied indifferently, "Oh."

Little Ma left with his bag.

Li Yingtang curled her lips. Luckily, she knew your character, otherwise she might not have been able to persuade you. "Xiao Ren, I'm leaving this to you."

"Ok."

"."

Li Yingtang took the shop's ledgers and cash and told Qin Xian about Xiao Ma's plan to go to the night market with her blind date. "She doesn't know him at all, yet she dares to go out with him. She's so bold."

Qin Xian: "I'm younger than you."

Li Yingtang emphasized, "I have skills. I'm incomparable to anyone else. Secondly, Xiao Ma's blind date is a college student, and she doesn't even know which university she's from. At least I went through your suitcase from the beginning and know your name, age, and where you went to school."

Qin Xian: "." He knew it; she had touched his trunk. "What if our daughter follows your example?" Unconventional and rebellious.

“There’s nothing wrong with learning from me.” Li Yingtang appreciates her own personality and believes she is full of good qualities.

He is too conventional and easily taken advantage of.

She then steered the conversation back to the original topic: "Do you think it's possible that the matchmaker saw that Xiao Ma was doing too well and deliberately sabotaged her?"

Qin Xian said frankly, "Perhaps. I've heard Xi Yue mention similar cases before. The matchmaker deliberately introduces a poor and difficult man to a well-off and obedient girl. During their time together, the girl discovers that the man has problems and wants to break up."

The man disagreed, resorted to verbal threats, physical violence, and spreading rumors to smear the woman's reputation, but still failed to achieve his goals. He then chose to take extreme measures, ending with the woman's death.

“I hope Xiao Ma doesn’t run into someone like that.” Li Yingtang suddenly added, “Among your college classmates, or any younger colleagues at the hospital, do you know anyone who could help her make a connection? She’s attracted to college students; aside from being a little slow, she’s great—hardworking, talkative, good at making money, and has principles.”

Qin Xian smiled and said, "Even the younger ones are two or three years older than me. Little Ma is eighteen?"

"Nineteen, even so, is still quite a difference. Forget it, she might not appreciate it. Besides, I heard from a friend that for men, twenty-five is equivalent to sixty."

Qin Xian was puzzled for several seconds, but based on her understanding of her, she figured out the meaning behind her words.

She was referring to that kind of ability.

"nonsense."

Li Yingtang snorted: "Whether it's nonsense or not, I'll know when you turn twenty-five."

Qin Xian: "." You brat, now that you mention it, I suddenly feel pressured.

It seems I need to go to bed early and maintain good lifestyle habits from now on; I really can't avoid staying up late anymore.
