Although Ms. Green told Caroline that she should not focus on imitators, they did not relax their vigilance against the market.

After all, there are only a small number of those who have the economic strength and ability to imitate the business model of Meisiyoudian.Moreover, Meisi has a greater influence in Chicago, and there is no one in this city who has completely copied it like Mr. Dolin.

This kind of vigilance made them accidentally discover a manufacturer who needed to reconsider their cooperation. Someone in their factory had privately sold a batch of defective products with the Meisi brand that should be destroyed to others, and some of them had even flowed into the market.

Although the manufacturer has repeatedly stated that this is an employee's personal behavior, it will never happen again in the future.Ms. Green resolutely canceled the future cooperation between the two parties in the name of the manufacturer's violation.

Caroline looked at the back of the manager of the company, and asked Ms. Green curiously, "Do you think he knows about the behavior of his employees?"

"Does he know I don't know, I just know that once a customer buys these defective products, no matter what the purchase channel is, it will have a bad impact on our Meisi",

It was rare for Ms. Green not to maintain her usual elegance. With a "snap", she slammed the signed cancellation agreement on the table.

"Then you see, do we need to issue a statement in the newspaper and then make a statement announcement in the store?"

"It's better not to expand the impact of this incident," said Ms. Green, tapping her finger on the table.

"However, the announcement can be made, mainly emphasizing that Meisi will guarantee the quality of the products we 'sell', whether it is a department store or a premium store. At the same time, we will make a unified statement with all the salespersons in the store and remind customers to keep the proof of purchase .”

Caroline nodded and took note of Ms. Green's arrangement.

The products of Max department store are already expensive and difficult to imitate.Although the products in Youyou Store are relatively common, their quality is considered to be high in the market, and Meisi has its own anti-counterfeiting method.

Therefore, Meisi generally only considers whether there is a problem of being imitated, rather than worrying about customers buying inferior products with the "genuine Meisi logo" from other channels like this time.

Because of the timely discovery, the accident did not have too serious consequences.

It's just that Meisi originally had a long-term cooperation with this manufacturer of household goods, and the cooperation was terminated early, which means that after the latest batch of product orders are completed, Meisi needs to entrust the production of such products to a new partner.

At present, there are three selected stores including branches, and the time difference between the branch in Milwaukee and the time difference caused by news transmission and product transportation must also be considered.

In order to make the supply connection go smoothly, Caroline has been in contact with new partners during this period, and also needs to visit their factories for on-site inspections.At the same time, she is also in charge of the management of two premium stores in the city.

For a whole month, Caroline felt that she was working every day when she opened her eyes. Not to mention the time for tennis practice every Sunday, she couldn't even squeeze out the time for gathering with friends and family.

When Ms. Green finally signed the contract with the new partner, Caroline took advantage of the rest day to visit Vivienne's house.

Since Vivienne became a mother, her straightforward temperament has become more gentle than before.And now that she has left Meisi to become the proprietress of the cloth shop, the two of them can talk more than before.

"This matter is finally over. If I do it again, I will go crazy." Caroline leaned on the couch in Vivienne's living room,

"You said that I only manage these two stores at present, and I am responsible for these tasks, and I have become what I am now. Ms. Green has so many properties under her command. How has she remained so indifferent all these years?"

"Don't you also know the former identity of Ms. Green?" Vivienne has almost recovered her former slim figure, and sat beside Caroline with her arms propped up, smoothing down Caroline's loose hair,

"The education they have received since childhood is different from ordinary people. How to manage and how to employ people is much clearer than us."

"That's true," Caroline nodded, not thinking about it anymore.

"By the way, why did you come to me to complain, where is your Franz?"

Vivienne asked casually, she knew about the relationship between the two people last year, and Caroline personally introduced them to each other.

"Caroline hesitated for a moment before saying, "Recently, I always feel that something is wrong with him, like..."

"Like breaking up with you?"

"Like asking me to marry you."

Vivian and Caroline said at the same time.

"What is there to worry about about the proposal, you scared me to death", Vivienne breathed a sigh of relief, and leaned back on the back of the sofa,

Caroline folded her arms behind her head, and looked at the sun that was covered by clouds outside the window, revealing a hazy light. Gradually, she felt that it was still a bit dazzling, and she looked away.

"I like him, and he likes me, and that never changes. It's just, you know, we're all so busy at work right now, so I'm worried that he's going to kill him before we've figured out how to fix it." Proposal."

"I spend too much time on work, he probably wanted me to rest assured about the future, and in the past two years, I have become more and more concerned about work.

But I work more to make myself feel at ease, so no matter how hard he works, it won't make me want to stop myself. "

"Are you overcomplicating things?" Vivienne glanced at her friend beside her, "Let's say it's an engagement, so what if it's just a marriage?"

"That means I might have to leave Meisi", although at least not until the end of the contract, Caroline thought.

Vivian got up and sat opposite Caroline,

"You know I never hide my words from my friends, some things I used to say were inappropriate, but now, I think I should ask you.

Why do you have such deep affection for Meisi and Ms. Green?Sometimes, I think you are the person who cares about Meisi the most in the whole mall, except for Ms. Green.Even Manager Adler is not like you. He often works until [-] o'clock before returning home, and continues to work when he gets home. "

"You don't know, I signed a contract with Ms. Green a few years ago, and I did it for myself," Caroline said with a smile.

"But you were like this before you became Ms. Green's assistant." Vivian stared into Caroline's eyes with probing eyes,

"And as far as I know, there are quite a few people who want to hire you with a high salary. I heard that the wife of the steel tycoon, Mrs. Wayne, once personally invited you to open a shop and do business together, but you declined all of them. .”

"If you're just doing it for a salary, or owning a stake, why is that?"

"I know that your status in Meisi is different now. Besides, I like Meisi as much as you do and respect Ms. Green, so I'm not trying to persuade you to leave." Vivian looked at Caroline's gradually changing face, the voice became quieter,

"It's just that since you've realized it, you might as well take the time to think about what you want most. I thought about it for a long time when I made up my mind to go to the cloth shop."

What do I want most?

Caroline has thought about this question countless times over the years.

She wants a lot.

At first, she just wanted to have enough food, clothing and warmth.

Soon, she discovered that in this society, women really don't have many choices. Even women in the upper class are bound by the shackles of society, let alone such an ordinary identity as herself.

If she wants to live a more relaxed life and have the "freedom" that she has always had, she needs to choose a direction and make more efforts.

After that, she found that she had a chance to prove herself. She found that although she didn't have any business experience, she could use a little bit of experience from later generations to show her skills here, and found that she had so much potential .

But she has never planned to leave Meisi, and when she thinks about it occasionally, it is because she is tired and wants to rest.

It may be because subconsciously she has always known that without Ms. Green and Meisi, it is actually difficult for her to achieve the current achievements in a few years.

At the very least, she needs to fumble along this road, and she will experience more setbacks and failures as she fumbles a little bit.

Not necessarily growing faster, but definitely going harder.

Rather than saying that she used her ability to inject fresh blood into Meisi, Caroline often felt that between the two of them, it was more like Ms. Green helped Caroline with her own ability, and realized one after another in Meisi. Fantastic ideas that are difficult to achieve in the here and now.

The opportunity given by Mei Si and Ms. Green allowed Caroline's soul, which was once like duckweed, to find a place to rely on and a place to grow.

In the process of growing up, Ms. Green has always been like her own lighthouse and leader. She is a leader, a teacher and a friend.

It seems that as long as she is there, if you encounter any difficulties in work or even in life, you can think, "Fortunately, Ms. Green is here", "You should ask Ms. Green", "It's okay, Ms. Green will definitely solve it" .

Caroline naturally hopes that one day she will be "independent".

But this kind of independence does not mean that she must break away from Meisi and go outside to establish her own store or shopping mall like Jason and Vivienne did.

Instead, she hopes that one day she can be like Ms. Green, who can create with her own ability and become a person that others can rely on.
