Chapter 546: Just a Little Money-Grubber
When Sheng Zhen heard this, he felt a little disappointed, but he still kept a smile on his face.
From the look on his father's face, he knew that his father treasured the wine very much and would not give it to him easily.
However, he was not jealous, because he also had two bottles of collector's edition wine, which he could slowly savor. Thinking of this, his mood became cheerful again.
Emperor Yongshun was very satisfied with the New Year gifts sent by Zheng Sisi and Sheng Zhen, and could even be said to be overjoyed.
After appreciating the liquor, they enthusiastically chatted with them about family matters, asked about the construction of Qingshui County, and expressed their appreciation for some of the suggestions put forward by Zheng Sisi.
Finally, Emperor Yongshun happily rewarded Zheng Sisi with many precious gold, silver and jewelry, saying it was a return gift, which made Zheng Sisi feel particularly surprised.
Zheng Sisi looked at the box of gold, silver and jewelry in front of her and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "The emperor is so generous! This gift is really worth it! I must give more gifts in the future. This feeling is really great!"
When Zheng Sisi and Sheng Zhen left the palace together and got on the carriage back to the palace, Zheng Sisi returned with a lot of things.
Sitting in the carriage, Zheng Sisi was in a good mood and could hardly hide her excitement. She couldn't help laughing out loud: "Sheng Zhen, if I knew the emperor was so generous, I should have given him more gifts a long time ago!"
Sheng Zhen looked at her happy expression, shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "You are just a little money-grubber! I have several boxes of jewels like this in the storeroom of my house. I will send them to you later."
After hearing this, Zheng Sisi's eyes lit up and she showed a happy expression: "Really? That's great! Thank you, Sheng Zhen!" After that, she hugged Sheng Zhen tightly and gave him a kiss on the face, with a happy smile on her face.
Who doesn’t love gold, silver and jewelry? If someone is willing to give it to you, just accept it!
Zheng Sisi did not record the jewels given to her by the emperor and Sheng Zhen in the account book one by one. Instead, she planned to wait until the evening and put them all in her own space, and then slowly appreciate and organize them when she had time in the future.
After delivering the gifts, Zheng Sisi stayed at home again. Sheng Zhen was very busy these days and only came to chat with her at night. Zheng Sisi would occasionally write or paint in the yard to pass the time. If she felt a little tired, she would take a few maids to play mahjong for entertainment.
On the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, she plunged into the kitchen again, leading a group of cooks to prepare various foods for the New Year, and also taught them many of the cooking skills she had mastered.
In just two days, the cooks looked at the kitchen full of new and exotic delicacies, and their initial surprise gradually turned into calmness and even numbness. They couldn't help but wonder in their hearts: Can the princess really finish all the food she made?
Time flies, and it is already the twenty-eighth day of the lunar year. On this day, Zheng Sisi led several small shareholders to inspect the store. Because tomorrow is the last day of business this year, the store will be closed for the annual holiday and will not reopen until the fifth day of the lunar year.
Today's schedule is packed. In addition to inspecting the stores, I also need to visit employees and distribute year-end bonuses and New Year supplies.
Every employee was puzzled by the decision to take a holiday during the Chinese New Year, and they all expressed to the shopkeeper their willingness to continue working during the Chinese New Year, but the shopkeeper had no choice but to follow Zheng Sisi's decision.
This decision caused some controversy, and even Zhong Ruiyu and Zheng Zhiyuan came to ask the reason. Zheng Sisi explained: "Employees work hard on weekdays and need to rest. They have relatives at home and are eager to reunite with their families during the Chinese New Year. As managers, we should understand their needs and give them due care. After all, money can never be earned enough. If we can retain the hearts of employees, they will help us create more wealth."
These words made everyone fall into deep thought. Indeed, humanistic management is not only about focusing on performance and profits, but more importantly, it is about caring about the lives and emotional needs of employees. Only in this way can we truly build a loyal and efficient team.
Although Zheng Sisi's decision was somewhat unexpected, it reflects her care and respect for her employees. This people-oriented management philosophy will undoubtedly become one of the key factors for the future development of the company. I believe that in the new year, their team will be more united and move towards success together.
Zheng Sisi had already started preparing for the New Year's supplies several months ago. She asked each store to make their own centralized purchases to ensure that the quality and quantity of the supplies could meet everyone's needs.
