Chapter 1606: Linkage

A small county town somewhere in the northwest.

The streets in the early morning were unusually deserted, with only a few cars turning on their lights and speeding on the road. Several residents wearing bulky clothes, masks and gloves, pedaled their bicycles against the biting cold north wind, riding slowly on the roadside and on the sidewalks where few people walked at this time.

Han Xia had such an experience. It was also at that time that she felt for the first time that even the gentle breeze could have unbelievable power.

Especially when it is combined with the cold, the feeling of penetrating your thick pants, cotton pants, and autumn pants, especially making your calves as cold as popsicles in midsummer, will leave you a deep impression.

Han Xia also has successful experience. At such times, you can only feel warmer if you ride faster without fear of the biting cold wind.

This also gave her a different view on some old sayings that her father always liked to say.

From her personal experience, since she was a child, her father, who did not read much, often used those old sayings to educate her, and many of them are obviously too old to be adapted to the current era.

For example, morning fog clears up, evening fog rains, morning fog does not wake up early, day is wasted, childhood does not study hard, life is wasted...

Especially the saying that only those who endure hardships can become superior people. Whenever Han Xia thinks of it, she feels that this saying is simply too unreasonable.

Liu Chun, the female classmate with the best family in the class, was studying hard from three o'clock in the morning to five o'clock in the morning in high school, especially in the third year of high school. Only she was busy dating all day. As a result, she and many hard-working classmates, including Han Xia, failed to get into college.

However, when Han Xia and her classmates wiped away their tears and packed their bags to go out to make a living, Liu Chun had already entered the county telecommunications company in a fashionable suit.

One year after graduating from high school, Han Xia, who had just finished her internship at Youjia Convenience and officially became a member of Youjia, attended the only class reunion. Liu Chun said that she had become a Class A worker in the telecommunications company - what the hell is that? Sitting in the office.

But her other treatment made everyone envious - including Han Xia, who thought that the future must be bright at that time. She was allocated a house in the county, 92 square meters!

They could only sigh in private, who let him have a good father? Liu Chun's father is the director of the county industrial and commercial bureau.

However, the experience of riding a bicycle in winter before made Han Xia feel that some of her father's words still made sense, that is, "freeze to death standing in the wind, starve to death without bending down."

The colder it is, the more you need to move, and move faster, so that your body will be warm.

"Hunk," the new bus in the county when she was in high school arrived at Renmin Road Station. Han Xia put down the hood of her down jacket, walked a few steps quickly, and arrived in front of the convenience store where she worked.

This is the best convenience store in the county, located in the most prosperous area of ​​the county, next door is the Construction Bank, and the telecommunications building where Liu Chun works is also on this road, but it is much more remote than this store.

Opening the door, turning on the lights, listening to the buzzing sound of electrical appliances after powering on, looking at this neat and modern store, smelling the unique fragrance of the store, taking off the down jacket, wearing a white shirt and vest, Han Xia felt a faint sense of satisfaction and pride in her heart.

When the company headquarters launched the plan to expand the convenience store market in her hometown, Han Xia was the first to sign up. In the past year or so, she has opened three stores in the county where she grew up, and all of them have achieved profitability.

Based on this, it will be easy for her to apply for a company at the city or provincial level in the future.

She has already cleaned all the shelves, and Zhao Lei, a male employee who worked with her for a few days, rushed in with a big bun, "Good morning, manager."

This is a boy who is only over 19 years old this year. He is good in other aspects, but he is sleepy.

…………

At 7:30, the convenience store officially opened for business, but until 8:30, there were not many businesses in the store. Two of them, one came in to buy paper towels and the other came in to buy chewing gum. When asked, they both wanted to change coins for the bus. Zhao Lei smiled and shook his head according to the company's regulations, indicating that there was no need to buy those things extra, and he changed them directly.

Han Xia noticed that when these two people were waiting for the bus at the platform, they looked at the brightly lit convenience store again, and their eyes were much warmer and more friendly.

There is no escape. If these two need something in the future, they would rather walk a few steps to shop at their own convenience store.

She envied the colleague who made this rationalization suggestion. She heard that because of this suggestion, the colleague was awarded the best employee of the year in addition to the cash reward because of the good consequences of this suggestion.

And the best employee of the year means more rewards and more promotion channels.

After 8:30, the store became obviously lively. Many grandpas and aunts, many housewives, all poured in. Their children were sent to school, vegetables were bought, and their homes were tidied up. It was just the right time to come to the convenience store.

Han Xia smiled and greeted them warmly, "Good morning, auntie."

This is also a successful experience she learned during the company training and tested at work. To those middle-aged and elderly people who often come to the store, you should be friendly. They like such service.

But for those young customers, even if they come often, don't be too enthusiastic, because that may make them feel restrained.

"Good morning, Xiaoxia," the aunt was also familiar with Han Xia, but she was not here to buy anything today. She held a promotional leaflet and asked Han Xia, "Next month, the oil will be so cheap? And the rice, I heard from Lao Wang next door that those computers and color TVs with famous brands will also be hundreds of yuan cheaper than usual. Why is it not mentioned on the list?"

"Aunt, during the joint promotion period after our Jiasheng Mall goes online next month, the oil and rice are indeed very affordable, but I don't recommend you to buy too much at once. You see, we have promotions for these products many times a year,"

"In Jiasheng In Sheng Mall, we have a Jiasheng Supermarket, which has many more products than those displayed in our convenience stores. The quality is guaranteed and the discounts are great. I suggest you take a look. If we have them, you can buy them in our store. If we don’t have them, you can place an order online and they will be delivered to your home.”

“And the electrical appliances you mentioned will also be available online. They are all directly opened by the manufacturers. It is really cost-effective to buy them. Not only will the manufacturers give discounts, but our group will also subsidize a lot. Take a look at this one,” Han Xia handed her another promotional leaflet.

These days, they have answered many similar questions and have long been familiar with them.

"We need to go online. We do have a computer at home, but we don't have an Internet connection. We're worried that it will affect our grandchildren's studies,"

"It doesn't matter. You can take these home and let your children see them at work. If you have broadband at home in the future, you can also buy things on our website. It's cost-effective and convenient,"

"Is that so? I think we should go to Telecom now to see what their rules are for installing broadband. If we can install it with the money we save, isn't that great?" The aunt, actually the aunt, took the two brochures and left in a hurry.

Thanks to the positive image of Jiasheng, and the successful cultivation of Jiasheng's Youjia convenience stores in the community over the years, this Northwest aunt, who actually knows little about the Internet, does not feel uneasy about buying things on Jiasheng's website, especially large items like computers and color TVs.

Zhao Lei, who was behind the cashier, was helping a young man who looked like he was working in a company to settle his bills while explaining to him, "Our Jiasheng Payment is actually very simple to use. You just need to register a user on the website and bind a bank card,"

"Of course, because it involves online payment, you may still have to go to the bank, but it is also very convenient. Several major domestic banks have cooperated with us, such as the Construction Bank next door. You just need to say that you want to handle Jiasheng Payment..."

"In the future, whether you shop on our website, book a hotel with us, or book a flight for a business trip, it will be very convenient and guaranteed, because you don't pay the money directly to the merchant at the beginning,"

"For shopping, you have to wait until you receive the goods, for ticket purchase, you have to wait until you get the flight ticket, for hotel booking, you have to wait until you check in..., after that, you can confirm..."

At this moment, all Youjia convenience stores across the country, inside and outside the Great Wall, are in a similar situation. Jiasheng Mall has not yet been launched, but offline, it has already started...
