Chapter Thirty-Nine: "Selling Yourself" Again

Ruan Mingyu strode to the long table, the corners of his mouth were still slightly upturned, but his eyes were as cold as a knife. He stared at Ma Jirong, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, "This son, my stall is to give Buddha beads to all pilgrims and form a Buddha relationship." But what do you say is false? Are Buddha beads fake? Is the Buddha fate fake? Or is your tongue false! ”

His smile snapped away, and he said sharply: "You insult the holy relics of the Buddha family with evil words in front of the temple, which is a great disrespect to the Buddha and a great insult to the believers of the Buddha, what kind of face do you have in this holy place of Buddhism!" ”

Ma Jirong's face changed, and he hurriedly looked at the crowd of onlookers, and sure enough, he saw that everyone was disdainful, and hurriedly said: "I am not disrespectful to the Buddha!" I'm just saying that your beads aren't real! ”

Ruan Mingyu sneered: "This is the Buddha beads made by the Buddha's Tree of Enlightenment, and these Bodhi bracelets are formed after the chanting of the high monks. If this is not true, you say, what is true? Or is it that,"

He glanced at Li Jingyao coldly, his eyes full of sarcasm: "Is it true that your Si Zhenfang disregards the customer's situation and forcibly pushes expensive luxury jewelry to customers?" ”

He watched Li Jingyao's face turn pale, smiled slightly, and greeted: "Miss Li, the new 'gourd makeup' jewelry launched by your shop is selling well, right?" ”

His words pointed directly at Li Jingyao's sore feet on the day of the Si Zhenfang Palm Print Ceremony, and Li Jingyao gritted her silver teeth with hatred, and she pointed at Ruan Mingyu with anger: "You, you!" What is the arrogance of the little Treasure Hunting Pavilion! Brother Ji, let's go back and let Uncle Ma tear down his shop! ”

Ruan Mingyu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled at the corners of his mouth: "Although I am not talented in the bottom." But in Minzhou City, it is still possible to protect a small Jingbao Pavilion. And,"

His eyes were clear, he pulled Li Jingshan around her shoulders, and said coldly: "I can not only protect my store, but also my people!" If someone dares to trouble her again in the future, don't blame me for being polite! I, Ruan Sanshao, are best at a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye! ”

"You-" Li Jingyao still wanted to make trouble again, but was stopped by Ma Jirong, whispered to persuade the hero not to suffer the loss in front of him, and pointed at Ruan Mingyu, and said inwardly: "You are openly against us in Minzhou City, and you don't have your good fruit to eat!" Hurriedly pulled Li Jingyao away.

Ruan Mingyu smiled behind him, "Young Master, I was scared. I'd like to see what fruit you can give me to eat!" ”

Li Jingshan looked at his flying eyebrows and hearty laughter, and saw the figure of the young chivalrous warrior who helped her drive away the villain in the suburbs of Minzhou that day - the same free and uninhibited, the same righteousness and strictness!

At that moment, Li Jingshan even felt that although Young Master Ruan was a thousand-faced face-changing king, the righteous and awe-inspiring side in front of him was his true portrayal.

She was still stunned, and suddenly felt a lightness on her shoulder, Ruan Mingyu had already removed her hand from her shoulder, and her smile was casual and casual, "Don't thank me, I just don't like the arrogance of those two people, so I want you to anger them!" ”

He saw that Li Jingshan's face fell, his slender fingers scratched Jun's face, and he made up for it: "But you are the person in my room, I will definitely cover you." ”

Li Jingshan: "......"

Young master, are you giving a stick and a sweet date? Thank you for your attention!

Li Jingshan bent her knees speechlessly, and after consciously walking to the stall, she continued to solicit pilgrims.

Ruan Mingyu looked at the bright and beautiful figure, busy behind the stall with a smile, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.

He didn't need to ask about the rest of the matter personally, so he raised his eyes and glanced at the shopkeeper Hong, leaving a steward to sit on the scene, and the two got into the carriage back to the city.

"How's that girl?" Ruan Mingyu took a sip of tea and asked casually.

"What a talent to make! With accurate vision and unique insights, she even saw the connection between jewelry and clothing color! Shopkeeper Hong's eyes lit up and he slapped his palms in admiration.

He told Ruan Mingyu in detail about Li Jingshan's test, and said to Ruan Mingyu with a flattering smile: "Young owner, it's better for you to give me that girl, I promise that it won't take five years...... No, in three years, I will make her the brightest sales star of Jingbao Pavilion!"

Ruan Mingyu's eyes also rose with a faint light, he pushed the smiling face of Shopkeeper Hong out, and said proudly: "Don't even think about it!" Her keen sense is even more advantageous when used in jewelry design. This girl, I'm going to decide! ”

-------

A few days later, Ruan Mingyu took Li Jingshan to the Jingbao Pavilion again, but the difference was that this time Li Jingshan followed Young Master Ruan into the side hall of the backyard account room.

Li Jingshan glanced at the side hall, looked at Young Master Ruan sitting on the main seat in the middle and Shopkeeper Hong sitting in the guest seat next to her, and was busy cheering up. Xindao, it seems that the assessment is about to begin.

However, when she saw the shopkeeper Hong handing her two pieces of paper, she said with Yue: "Miss Li, from today onwards, you are already a junior craftsman in our Si Zhen Fang. This is an employee rule, please read it carefully. If there is a violation, you will be expelled from the store and will never be hired; If it is serious, it will notify its peers, and even sue the government, and will not be tolerated. ”

Although Li Jingshan was surprised in her heart, she still respectfully took it and looked at it carefully, it was all normal rules and regulations, she nodded, "The little girl understands, she will be cautious in her words and deeds, and she will never violate it." ”

Shopkeeper Hong nodded with satisfaction and said, "In this case, if you come to sign this agreement, you will be regarded as a regular employee of Jingbao Pavilion." ”

This employment agreement is much more detailed, which not only stipulates the settlement of wages, the distribution of dividends, etc., but also stipulates the confidentiality agreement that you must abide by as a craftsman, as well as penalties for violations.

Li Jingshan took a closer look and felt that in general, the conditions offered were generous, but if there was a violation, the punishment would be extremely severe.

What has been gained is very rich, and what has been punished is very severe, and it is abundant to maintain honesty and avoid corruption. This is exactly how reputable businesses employ workers.

Li Jingshan nodded secretly, and was about to sign the agreement, when she suddenly saved something, looked up at Ruan Mingyu, and asked, "Young Master, what ...... my sale and deed in the Ruan family's courtyard?" ”

Ruan Mingyu was drinking a cup of tea leisurely, and when he heard this, he glanced at her and hooked the corners of his mouth, "One yard is one yard." You sold that contract to me, and you sold this employment agreement to Jingbao Pavilion, how can you mix it up. ”

He looked at Li Jingshan, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "If the jewelry you designed does not sell well and you are kicked out of the Jingbao Pavilion, you will go back to be my fire girl!" ”

I know that it's not such a cheap thing!

Li Jingshan swallowed a sullen breath and replied, "Please remember, young master, in addition to the monthly salary of the Treasure Pavilion, I also have to pay me another salary for the other courtyard." ”

Ruan Mingyu laughed and said, "Then I will suffer a loss." Spend a tael of silver every month to raise you girl, just so that every meal can be pleasing to the eye. ”

At this point, Li Jingshan had no choice but to sign the document and sell herself again. She teased herself in her heart, this is the so-called debt is not worried.

After thinking about it, even in modern times, don't you still carry several "sales and identity deeds", such as employment contracts, car loans, and housing loans. She was suddenly relieved: in life, who is not tied up and tied by a few pieces of paper? 、

As soon as the matter was completed, a guy came over to ask for instructions, saying that the craftsman in the spider alley who helped wear Buddhist beads bracelets came to settle the wages, and asked the shopkeeper Hong to deal with it. Shopkeeper Hong glanced at Ruan Mingyu, Ruan Mingyu sighed, and said, "You go, I'll tell her the rest." ”

Shopkeeper Hong hurriedly resigned. Leaving Li Jingshan and Ruan Mingyu in the side hall, Li Jingshan suddenly felt as if she had returned to the young master's main room in the Ruan family's courtyard.

Every time she faced the young master alone like this, she always needed to fight with him at a moment of wits and courage. The cold hairs on her back couldn't help but stand on end.

Although Li Jingshan tried her best to hide it, her vigilant eyes still couldn't hide Ruan Mingyu, and he smiled arbitrarily, "What, are you still afraid that I will cheat you?" Don't worry, I'm representing the Treasure Pavilion now, not the young master in the other courtyard. ”

He accepted the frivolous look, sat on it, and said solemnly: "The regulations that I negotiated with you in the other courtyard are still working, and the one-percent dividend of piecework jewelry will be fulfilled as promised." And you did a good job on the Buddha's Birthday, and after that, many customers came to ask about the sale of Bodhi beads. I will give you a commission for this part of the reward on the piece of jewelry, which is counted as a bonus of one and a half percent. ”

"Yes, thank you, young master." Li Jingshan replied with low eyebrows. The guard in her heart still did not let go, and she knew that the important content was still to come.

Sure enough, Young Master Ruan continued: "Now our store also sells Buddhist bead bracelets, so I arranged for you to work at the counter for half a day every day to sell Buddhist beads, and also use it as on-site training for the staff in the store. ”

When he saw that Li Jingshan opened her mouth and was about to speak again, he raised his hand to stop him, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you will be paid according to the counter." ”

Li Jingshan obediently shut up and nodded with satisfaction.

"Now about your gilded jewelry." Ruan Mingyu continued: "Gilt jewelry is of high quality and low price, and it is exactly the type that ordinary people love. I plan to set up a special counter for gilt jewelry and vigorously promote this kind of jewelry. Therefore, there is a need for a large supply, and you alone - can you do it? ”

As soon as Li Jingshan heard it, she understood that Young Master Ruan wanted her to sell this craft. She couldn't help but hesitate.

In fact, Li Jingshan really wants to pass on the gilt craft to the world.

First, she knows that gilding can not only be used in jewelry, but also many items are preserved and enhanced through gilding. This craft can bring more artistic enjoyment and convenience to people's life. Moreover, the craft has always been self-improving and becoming stronger in the exchange and use, and the self-cherishing of the broom is actually the natural enemy of the craft technology.

Second, the gilding technique is actually not difficult, and the real trouble lies in refining mercury. And her careful pouring in the back kitchen is really time-consuming and laborious, and the efficiency is too low. If a special refining workshop can be established, mercury can be produced in large quantities, which can greatly reduce costs. So that gilded items really into the homes of ordinary people.

All this requires the participation of merchants with strong manpower and material resources like Jingbaoge in order to succeed. Therefore, Li Jingshan considered selling the gilding process technology to Jingbao Pavilion.

It's just that...... Young Master Ruan is too cunning!

The gilding technique is the skill that Li Jingshan can rely on the most in this world, and she naturally hopes to exchange this technology for the first pot of gold in her life. It's just that the profiteer Ruan Mingyu made her feel uneasy, and she didn't know what kind of price Young Master Ruan would offer.

She had no choice but to take it step by step and asked cautiously, "You want me to teach the gilding technique in the Treasure Hunting Pavilion?" How high can you bid? ”
