The Self-Cultivation of a Reborn Massage Therapist

Chapter 243 I'm waiting for you to do it manually.
Zhao Xiaochui rubbed his temples, looking troubled. "Is this a payment schedule issue?"

“No!” Ou Xiaokui shook her head, a half-smile appearing on her face. She looked at him with complicated eyes and said, word by word, “Boss, we’ve been paying our grassroots textile workers too much, which has caused what’s called an ‘industry upheaval’!”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaochui was stunned. He stared blankly at Ou Xiaokui, as if he had heard something unbelievable: "Cause a shock?"

Ou Xiaokui just chuckled and didn't say anything more, but her smile was full of irony and helplessness.

Zhao Xiaochui pursed his lips, his expression turning serious, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the situation now?"

“You know the economy is down right now,” Ou Xiaokui said, lowering her head to tuck her hair behind her ear, concealing the complex emotions in her eyes.

Zhao Xiaochui's gaze fell on the window.

If Zhao Xiaochui had gone to the area two weeks ago, he might have been treated with police escorts and high-ranking officials; now, everyone would just avoid him.

Zhao Xiaochui's head started to ache. He rubbed his temples and asked, "How many industries have we offended?"

Ou Xiaokui was taken aback: "Boss, do you want me to compile the data?"

Zhao Xiaochui shook his head: "Is someone instigating trouble?"

“That’s why everyone’s worried,” Ou Xiaokui shook her head solemnly. “These are just normal negative effects of challenging the rules. If someone takes the lead in causing trouble, then Easy Slow Travel will really turn into a quagmire.”

Zhao Xiaochui: "Why should this become a quagmire? One international client of mine can support everyone for a year!"

"Why should we let you support us?" Ou Xiaokui asked in a deep voice with her head down. "With all of Easy Slow Travel's side businesses at a standstill, apart from the technicians and logistics staff, all the employees in our office area are useless to you! Including the finance department!"

Zhao Xiaochui didn't want to discuss this with his assistant, because it was obvious that the assistant's negative attitude today was not in line with Zhou Yaqin's style.

She put aside her work and was giving advice as a friend!
Zhao Xiaochui owes this favor, but...

Ou Xiaokui is still a bit young, and she underestimated the ease and slow pace of the journey.

So Zhao Xiaochui changed the subject: "If we really encounter such an extreme situation, we'll naturally have something to do. How's the technician recruitment going?"

These past few days, HR Cheng Jin has been avoiding him. Clearly, the promises he made so confidently haven't gone smoothly, and it's obviously very difficult to recruit technicians who meet the criteria for a relaxed and slow-paced job.

Ou Xiaokui thought of Cheng Jin, who was already so busy he looked like a ghost, and suppressed a laugh as she reported:
"The nine recent graduates we initially hired, all with formal training, couldn't stand the environment of the established store and the customer review system, and they've all resigned!"

Zhao Xiaochui: "..."

"Currently, there are also professionally trained technicians with more than 3 years of experience interning at the old store. Da Qiao and others are working hard on the next round of training, and strive to raise their positive feedback rate to 80% within two weeks."

Zhao Xiaochui: "Where is the blind technician?"

“An elimination rate of over 85%!” Ou Xiaokui lowered her head. “Boss, this isn’t discrimination, it’s reality—the vast majority of disabled people have various mental issues, even more so than able-bodied people. Compared to them, it seems that those with formal training have a higher expected success rate.”

"How many of those with formal training have been promoted to full-fledged positions?" Zhao Xiaochui asked.

Ou Xiaokui: "..."

“No matter what their problems are,” Zhao Xiaochui said firmly, “If even one of the 1000 blind technicians gets a permanent position, we’ll consider it a win!”

Blind technicians can't see the fair-skinned, beautiful, and long-legged women in short videos, but as long as they have a normal mindset and follow a relaxed and slow approach, their success rate is definitely higher. Zhao Xiaochui firmly believes this.

“Okay, I will pass on your instructions to Supervisor Cheng Jin.” Ou Xiaokui made two notes in her notebook. “Also…” Zhao Xiaochui thought for a moment and instructed, “Tell President Zhou to stop the pre-sales on the Musical Notes display window. From now on, we will only sell in-stock items.”

“Received.” Ou Xiaokui knew this was to avoid the risk of a run on refunds.

"And one more thing~" Zhao Xiaochui thought for a moment and added, "Tell President Zhou to stop the pre-sales on the musical note display window. From now on, we will only sell in-stock items."

“Received.” Ou Xiaokui knew this was to avoid the risk of a run on refunds.

“By the way, if I…” Zhao Xiaochui hesitated, then tentatively asked, “If I accept payment terms for the purchases, but require a third-party bank escrow system, do you think that can solve these problems?”

“Boss, no way~” Ou Xiaokui shook her head with a wry smile. “The second party can get the escrow loan directly and quickly, which is no different from cash payment. It doesn’t solve the problem of them being ‘blacklisted’ at all.”

Hearing this, Zhao Xiaochui completely abandoned any intention of compromise. His eyes sharpened, and his tone was resolute: "Tell President Zhou to investigate all risks and cut all projects involving financial payment terms!"

“Received!” Ou Xiaokui replied immediately.

…………

For an internet celebrity IP, especially the craze that Liu Li and the eleven girls are currently creating.

Even the smallest action can cause a great stir.

So when the glamorous Liu Li announced in her latest short video, with an apologetic voice, that she had canceled pre-orders and was returning to selling items as in-stock items, she once again became a trending topic.

Aside from certain industry insiders, everyone wondered why Easy Slow Travel wouldn't make money when it could be doing so well.

Based on its exaggerated sales figures these days, these prepayments would earn a considerable amount of interest even if they were deposited in a bank.

No one cares about the doubts of ordinary people.

But for those involved, there was a very clear sense of relaxed and leisurely pace.

What are the negative effects of breaking the rules?
You're going to give me a fully automatic one?
Sorry, the fully automatic one is too much for me. How about I try the manual one?

I'm waiting for someone from your group to lead a trouble-making operation!
Therefore, it is very important to develop good reading comprehension skills in elementary school.

The resulting chain reaction surprised Zhao Xiaochui.

Because the first to react were two familiar women—Jiang Ying and Yu Xiaoning.

Regardless of whether it's related to the latest relaxed travel policy or not, Zhao Xiaochui believes that their reaction at this time is relevant!
The business invitations that were supposed to come one after the other have now become one after the other.

Jiang Ying is behind, and Yu Xiaoning is in front!

What surprised Zhao Xiaochui even more was that an hour after the relaxed and slow travel policy was announced, Jiang Ying used up her only remaining appointment-free privilege in her treatment course.

The time is tonight.

Seeing the glaring "overtime" message in the tablet's background, Zhao Xiaochui helplessly sent Guo Xiaohua a text message to cancel their late-night snack date, patiently waiting for Jiang Ying to arrive.
