  Chapter 172: Special Instrus from the Boss

  TL: Etude

  The m dawned clear and mild.

  Jiang Qin got dressed ahe house, apanied by several embers of Team 208: Dong Wenhao, Su Nai, Lu Xuemei, and Wei Lann, as they headed to Lin the Uy of Sce of Teology.

  “Boss, are we going to promote group buying?” asked one of the team members.

  Jiang Qin hummed in affirmation, then added, “We’re just going to do some preliminary work. The real promotion will start around New Year’s Day.”

  Su Nai, watg Jiang Qin trate on driving, didn’t disturb him but couldn’t resist whispering to Wei Lann sitting beside her.

  “The boss is a real workaholio sooner has the group buying stabilized than he’s off to the arget.”

  “You’re just realizing this now?”

  “I’m just curious, doesn’t he o take time out to be with the boss dy?”

  “Christmas Eve and Christmas are just around the er. The boss surely has pns already. The boss dy is going to be spoiled rotten.”

  Hearing the ughter from the backseat, Jiang Qin frowned slightly. “What are you talking about? Is there something I shouldn’t hear?”

  “We’re discussing how we’ll work hard today,” Su Nai replied seriously, trying to suppress her smile.

  “That’s the spirit, Su Nai. You’re truly a valuable employee. I’ll give you some extra tasks ter.”

  Ign Su Nai’s feigned e, Jiang Qin drove into the uy with a smile and parked the ear Xi Tian’s gate.

  Wei Lann and Lu Xuemei were then assigned as oeam, Dong Wenhao and Su Nai as another, while Jiang Qin worked alone, dispersing to their respective tasks.

  Wei Lann and Lu Xuemei’s mission involved iating tracts with nearby merts and initiating delivery training.

  This included verifying orders, transferring merdise, and managing financial calcutions.

  Jiang Qin had established a standard procedure for all these processes from the outset, which Lin Uy was now following.

  As the business expahis standard process o be tinually updated to prevent unforeseen troubles iages. Making rules at that point would be futile.

  “Why does the mert bear the responsibility for pensating missing orders?”

  “That’s pany policy. We hold the primary responsible party atable, so we hope you’ll take merdise preparation seriously. Of course, our riders will also check the goods upon colle. With these dual processes, missing orders are unlikely.”

  “And what about lost orders?”

  “During promotional periods, if there are lost or missing orders, the pany will deal with them acc to the policy. Here are the details.”

  “ we ge the payment time at the beginning of month? We restock mid-month, so this would mean advang half a month’s funds.”

  “Acc to pany policy, all merts must settle ats at the same time.”

  After a round of visits, Wei Laning the script prepared by Jiang Qi her throat dry from repeatedly saying “pany policy” until the words almost lost their meaning.

  Some merts weren’t happy with the “pany policy” of group buying, finding it tid and impersonal. They wanted more bes and fewer obligations.

  At such times, Wei Lann would show them the sales data from Lin Uy’s trial run.

  Upon seeing the December sales data for Lin Uy’s stationery store, one mert immediately agreed to the terms without further ent.

  Talk is cheap; money speaks.

  People be very pragmatic at times.

  After leaving the stationery store, Wei Lann took a deep breath, unscrewed her water bottle, and took a few sips to soothe her throat.

  “These rules set by the boss feel like a one-size-fits-all approach, with every detail rigorously defined.”

  Lu Xuemei couldn’t help but share her thoughts.

  “The boss said that ohe pany’s policies bee the industry standard, many future troubles will be avoided. People won’t be questioning why all the time, nor will they ask on what grounds because we already have the policies in pce, and the policies themselves are the reasons.”

  Wei Laed the words Jiang Qin had entrusted to her.

  “ we really achieve su effect?”

  “There’s a saying, ‘ bees w.’ That’s the idea. Strict rules might seem more harmful than beneficial at the moment, but the boss said he’s ying the groundwork for the future. Standardization of processes is the first step trowth and strength.”

  Lu Xuemei blihoughtfully. “So, we’re setting rules for everything now to prevent small issues from being big problems once we expand?”

  “Exactly.”

  “But won’t it be exhausting to iate with each mert individually? ’t we gather them all together and have them sign the tract at once?”

  Wei Lann shook her head. “The boss specifically mentiohis. Once merts band together, they tend to bee greedy. If oarts a otion, tless others might follow suit. Even showing them sales data won’t help, especially when dealing with troublemakers who easily stir emotions. That’s why we must iate with eae individually.”

  Lu Xuemei uood. “What about the training? Any special instrus for that?”

  “The boss said training be done collectively. Ohe tracts are sighere’s no fear of merts bag out at the st minute.”

  “It feels like he’s rehearsed every step of the process in his mind a million times, and we’re just tools exeg the tasks. Especially those special instrus, they always e in handy.”

  “Dong Wenhao told me something a few days ago.”

  “What did he say?”

  “Some paths are safe when the boss leads us, but if we walk them alone, we’ll fall into a pit.”

  Meanwhile, Dong Wenhao and Su Nai went to Room 502, gathering all the part-time students for a meeting to assign uping tasks.

  Lin the Uy of Sce of Teology, uheir home uy, was a brand had many operational challenges.

  Information dissemination was not as timely and accurate as at their home uy.

  This was especially true during promotional activities, when everyone was extremely busy, leading to signifit deys in unication.

  Therefore, following Jiang Qin’s instrus, Dong Wenhao and Su Nai o select a manager and a deputy manager from among the students for prehensive ma, rep directly to Jiang Qin.

  Lai qing from the market team had shown endable performanot only stable in character but also teically experienced.

  Ding Qiaona from the tent team was also excellent, with a flexible mind, full of ideas, and capable of adapting to situations.

  After discussing, Su Nai and Dong Wenhao shortlisted these two as didates, intending to let Jiang Qin decide.

  At the same time, Jiang Qin was in Zhang Ming’an’s office, signing a plethora of agreements including work-study programs, joint agreements with the uy, and various third-party tracts, all tered around group buying.

  “Director, aren’t there too many agreements? I feel like I’m wearing out my fingerprints.”

  “You’re here as arepreneurial student from another school; you have to sign each agreement three times, along with a bunch of supplemental agreements. What I do?”

  Jiang Qin wiped his fingers. “Anything else to sign?”

  Zhang Ming’an tossed aack of papers at him. “Take your time, there’s plenty more. We’re not short on them.”

  Jiang Qin’s mouth twitched. “’t we simplify the process?”

  “You could register a pany. Busio-busiransas would cut the process at least in half,” Zhang Ming’an suggested helpfully.

  Jiang Qin, looking at the stack of agreements, was overwhelmed. “’t we just remove the staples and bind them into one dot for me to sign all at once?”

  Zhang Ming’an g him. “Of course not. These agreements fall under differemental jurisdis. How you bihem all into one?”

  “I don’t remember signing this many when I promoted the forum st time.”

  “That… that’s because Director Hu was biased against group buying. Signing mives him peaind.”

  Finishing his expnation, Zhang Ming’an picked up his teacup and took a sip.

  Indeed, Hu Maolin had fully delegated the task of liaising with Jiang Qin to Zhang Ming’an, but he too cked fidence, hence dredging up all sorts of chaotic agreements.

  The wasn’t the abundance of agreements, but the potential fusion in expining them ter.

  However, Zhang Ming’an’s as were not out of distrust for Jiang Qin; he had personally withe tragid of a previous group buyiure.

  “You should sider registering a pany when you have time.”

  After signing the agreements, Jiang Qin put down his pen, bid farewell to Zhang Ming’an, ahe uy’s administrative office.

  Wei Lann and Lu Xuemei had already returned, and Dong Wenhao and Su Nai had fiheir meeting. The group reve Xi Tian, sipping milk tea while updating Jiang Qin on their progress.

  Wei Lann’s report was straightforward sihe agreements were standardized and the rules were strictly defihe only variable was deg who would be the manager ay ma the uy’s teology branch.

  “I think Lai qing is a good choice. He’s one of the first employees ahh in his work.”

  “But I think Ding Qiaona is also suitable. She has strong coordination skills and is good at adapting.”

  Dong ondered for a moment. “Ding Qiaona is indeed capable, but she’s too full of ideas. I’m afraid she might disrupt the promotion’s rhythm.”

  “That’s true. But Lai qing hahe market at the uy alone?” Su Nai expressed her doubts.

  “Boss, what do you think?”

  Jiang Qin was engrossed in chatting with Feng Nanshu on QQ.

  The versation was lively, with Feng Nanshu “big brother” starting to domihe s, creating a signifit shift in the dynamics.

  The girl was being increasingly skilled at emoting, dispying a high level of sophistication.

  One moment she was aloof, and the , she would be affeately calling someone big brother. It was hard to resist such charm.

  Jiang Qin couldn’t imagine how he’d handle such emoting in person. The s offered some prote, but face-to-face, it would be overwhelming.

  He bmed Ding Xue for this and po get even with Cao Guangyu, making them uand the perils of human nature.

  “Boss?”

  “Let Lai qihe manager and Ding Qiaona the deputy manager.”

  Jiang Qin put away his phone, decisively ending the discussion.

  For the sed phase of the group buying project, stability referred over speed. At present, Lai qing’s style seemed most suitable.

  Ding Qiaona was creative and quick-thinking, but her ideas might not be beneficial during the promotion, potentially causing hindrances.

  As Wei Lann had said, at this stage, Jiang Qin needed his team to be effit executors of tasks, without any unnecessary plications.

  Of course, ohe market stabilized, those with flexible minds would naturally bee invaluable.
