"Who doesn't want to make money? But you don't have to show off in front of so many of us, do you? Not everyone's as lucky as you are to be born with such a pretty face and be good at pleasing people."

Li Lili said to Li Muyao unkindly. From Li Lili's perspective, Li Muyao and Wu Lanqi were both new apprentices, but because Li Muyao was close to Color Hair at the Hairdressing Department on the first floor, Manager Cai promoted her to a beautician trainee first, while Li Lili herself wasn't included in the promotion list.

Also, on the day of the assessment, Manager Cai even brought Li Lili to the side and scolded her harshly.

Manager Cai said that if Li Lili failed the next assessment, she would be fired early, even if she had been an apprentice for three years and was about to become a beautician.

Manager Cai was very clear when she scolded Li Lili. She said Li Lili didn't take her work seriously, was always late or left early, didn't have enough professional beauty knowledge, wasn't careful enough when she worked, and had poor talent.

Li Lili almost cried back then. Manager Cai used Li Muyao to compare to Li Lili, so she immediately regarded Li Muyao as her enemy.

"Indeed, I was born pretty. I admit it! However, if you can't put in the most basic effort, sweat and dedication, you won't be able to make money, no matter how jealous you are of others."

Li Muyao had already known that when she showed part of her ability, some people would feel uncomfortable about it.

This was the difference between small beauty salons and large beauty salons. People here didn't work hard and had no ambition, and they wanted others to be like them. When someone you thought had the same Buddha-like mindset as you suddenly became someone you must look up to, you would feel uncomfortable and a serious imbalance and jealousy would appear at the same time.

In large beauty salons, from the moment you entered, the training for apprentices and ideas instilled into you was already different!

Since you are a mature beautician, your goal is to serve your customers and improve your performance at the same time. Ways of improving performance included enhancing your professional skills, caliber, and knowledge. Then, you'd naturally have a broader horizon.

How would people with a broad mind and horizon be truly jealous of someone stronger than them?

Maybe they would be envious, but most strong people would only encourage themselves to make themselves stronger, even surpassing the others.

It wouldn't be like the situation in Li Muyao's dorm. There were seven people in total and they had been living and working together for almost eight months. And yet, Li Muyao had been left out by everyone in the dorm since she officially became a beautician trainee two weeks ago. She was also treated with ridicule and had to listen to their insidious nonsense.

Li Muyao didn't want to waste her time talking to these people. She knew what she wanted and which step she must take.

To hop to another beauty salon, a beautician didn't only need superb skills, but also impressive performance!

An outstanding beautician was also an outstanding salesperson!

Li Muyao had always known that she couldn't stay at Wanhua Beauty Salon for long.

After seeing Li Muyao put away her notes and go to take a shower with her toiletries, Wu Lanqi comforted Li Lili with a soft voice, "Lili, don't be mad.

"Muyao is indeed capable right now. Manager Cai and Deputy Manager Chen both think highly of her. I suggest you not to offend her."

"After all, in the last two weeks, Muyao has already improved and broken the performance record of the entire salon all by herself.

"Besides, Muyao has been nice to us during this period. She gave us quite a lot of customers!"

It was fine until Wu Lanqi mentioned the customers Li Muyao gave them. Once she did, Li Lili almost exploded. "Bah! Who wants her customers? It'd be totally a misfortune to have to take over her customers. After using so much energy to do beauty treatments for her customers, we only get a 15% bonus. It'll be great for Li Muyao. She doesn't have to do anything and will be able to take away 5% of our bonus!"

Yes, beauty salons had strict rules for the distribution of bonuses. For example, A's customer brought another customer here and bought a beauty card from A. If A was too busy to serve so many customers, she could assign some of them to B. Then, A, who gave her customers to B, could still take a 5% bonus from the beauty card the customers got or the total earnings from the beauty products, sharing half of the bonus with B, who took over the customers.

She would take half of the money without doing anything!

That was certainly not easy to accept.

And yet, Li Lili and the others had forgotten that if Li Muyao's customer didn't introduce her friends here or without Li Muyao's eloquence, it was impossible for them to have so many customers. Then, they wouldn't even get 1% of the bonus, let alone the 5% they received after taking the customers over.

Also, the beauty cards Li Muyao's customers got cost at least fifty thousand yuan, so even a 5% bonus wasn't a small amount.

Not to mention it had only been two weeks.

After a longer time, Li Muyao would be capable of getting more customers. Every customer had at least three friends they were close with and those three friends also followed this three-friend relation pattern to continue developing, maintaining customer relationships easily and seriously.

Li Muyao didn't want to aim too high, but it would be easy for her to register twenty fifty-thousand yuan beauty cards in a month. In her previous life, Li Muyao's highest monthly turnover was as high as tens of millions. Of course, different beauty services had different prizes and all customers weren't the same.

Based on the development trend of Li Muyao's customers, it would indeed go this way as well.

However, no matter if it was Wu Lanqi, who used to be a close friend of Li Muyao, or Lin Hong and Li Lili, who had always looked down on Li Muyao, none of them could understand or could see the pattern, which was why they became jealous.

"Alright, stop it! Even if you scold Li Muyao, she'll still ignore you. What's the point of it?

"We should just admit that Li Muyao is lucky to have so many customers introducing her to new customers. We truly aren't capable of doing that!

"But to be honest, Li Muyao seems to have become luckier after she came back from her leave a month ago!

"I also heard from the shampoo girl downstairs that the fruits and drinks Li Muyao treated us a while back were bought with the money she and Color Hair won from the two-yuan scratch cards in the lottery shop opposite to the salon.

"No wonder the lottery shop is so popular recently. People must be going after the grand prizes, thinking they can win like Li Muyao did!

"Oh, I forgot to tell you that Li Muyao spent a hundred yuan at the lottery shop and won thirteen thousand yuan!" After hearing what Lin Hong said, everyone in the entire dorm went silent, as if someone had pressed the pause button.

"No way! Lin Hong, are you serious?" Wu Lanqi couldn't seem to find her own voice. Li Muyao spent a hundred yuan on the two-yuan scratch cards and won thirteen thousand yuan?

How was that possible?

Wu Lanqi had bought that kind of scratch card several times, but she had never won even once!
