Chapter 285 The counselor is here

Outside the glass, Cheng Zhu and Wang Bingqing looked at each other, nodded slightly as a greeting, and then turned around to continue taking pictures of [Yuzu Tea].

There are always people with computers on their tables in Starbucks stores.

These people may be working, chatting, or enjoying the petty bourgeoisie feeling of the moment.

However, the milk tea shop across the street is doing really booming business.

Its presence breaks the "tranquility" in the store.

Many people sitting in front of their laptops couldn't help but glance sideways at the milk tea shop opposite.

The female clerk Wang Bingqing even saw a table of female best friends who often come to the store. They had been dancing and gossiping in the store, but they didn’t even finish their coffee and went straight to the other side to queue!

They are holding Starbucks in their hands and queuing at a milk tea shop.

What are you doing!

In this world, many workers, under the influence of "corporate culture", will develop a strong sense of belonging and honor to the company.

In a store like Starbucks, not to mention the store staff, many customers are like crazy fans.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Wang Bingqing felt an indescribable discomfort.

"What are you thinking? Wouldn't it be nice to sit in Starbucks and drink coffee?" she thought to herself.

"Why don't you sit in a high-end Starbucks and stand there to queue up for milk tea?"

"And this milk tea is so expensive!"

"Also, could you bring me a cup, too?"

Yes, despite being angry and annoyed, she did watch the advertisement for roasted brown sugar bubble milk tea on the screen and felt that it was delicious.

It's early December now. Normally, foreign brands like Starbucks attach great importance to Christmas at the end of the month.

Therefore, the cups in the store have long been replaced with Christmas cups.

The store has already been decorated for Christmas to warm up the atmosphere.

Even in terms of products, many Christmas limited editions have been launched.

Another point is that Starbucks' peripheral products have always sold very well, such as tea cups, thermos cups, etc., and the prices are very expensive, often hundreds of yuan.

Nowadays, some Christmas-style cups are also on sale. We couldn’t sell many in the past few days.

Logically speaking, business should be getting better day by day in the near future.

As Starbucks, we never thought that there would be any competitors in the same field.

There is no Chinese brand that can compete with us at this price point.

We - despise everything!

All along, we have just been concentrating on being ourselves.

The festival is coming, and we just need to do what we are supposed to do.

Christmas is coming, and once the limited edition products are released, won’t the sales volume increase rapidly?

As for the rest, what else is there!

After Wang Bingqing cleaned up a few tables, she walked back to the cashier counter.

Liu Lei, the store manager of this Starbucks, is also at the cashier counter at this moment.

Of course, in the store he is not called Liu Lei, he is called Richard.

Many Starbucks employees in big cities have an English name, and some of them only call each other by their English names in the store on a daily basis.

"Cindy, you weren't very focused on your work today." Liu Richard Lei gently reprimanded Wang Bingqing in a serious tone.

He had noticed several times that she kept looking across the table and was slow to clean the table.

The manager of this Starbucks has been unhappy with the opponent for a long time.

Not only did they dare to open a store opposite our Starbucks, but they also shouted out the slogan of "creating a new force in China's beverage industry."

Do you know how to write the word Die?

You won’t even know how you died by then!

"A milk tea shop should be opened next to a school gate, next to a braised chicken shop, or next to a pork knuckle restaurant."

"Where should you be on the first floor of a high-end shopping mall?"

“How can a high-end beverage store survive across from Starbucks?”

Therefore, the store manager Lei Zi glanced at Wang Bingqing and said, "It's normal for business to be good on the first day of opening. Understand?"

"Yeah, I understand." Wang Bingqing nodded quickly.

But just as she finished her words, she saw another customer running to the other side to queue up.

Outside the door of Starbucks, Cheng Zhu had already taken pictures with his back to Starbucks.

The three adopted sons of Dormitory 309 were wandering around here, saying they were helping Brother Zhu to patrol, but in fact they were just looking at the beauties with a smile on their faces.

“This looks good!”

“This one looks good too!”

“It looks good, it looks good, it looks good!”

It's winter now, and there's not as much to see as in summer, but the three naughty dogs still enjoy it.

However, as they looked, they soon saw the most beautiful woman in the team.

Then, the smiles on the three people's faces disappeared in an instant.

"Chen, Teacher Chen!"

Liu Feng and others were completely stunned.

Holy shit! Why is the counselor here?

Chen Jieyu is indeed very beautiful, even more beautiful than those internet celebrities-like girls waiting in line in front of her.

But the gold-rimmed glasses and unique temperament on her face made her look so serious that even the class monitor Liu Feng felt that our class counselor was definitely the most difficult to negotiate with among all the counselors in the School of Information!

They even began to feel lucky at this moment.

Fortunately, I don’t know what was wrong with Brother Zhu. He didn’t come early on the first day of the store opening and insisted on going to morning classes.

Teacher Chen must have been waiting in line for a while.

If we had already arrived at the store when she first came to line up, wouldn't that be like being caught skipping class!

"That was a close call!" the three thought.

Especially Liu Feng, he is the class monitor!

Concubine Chen turned her head to look at them, nodded slightly to the three of them with a serious face, and then asked, "Did you come with Cheng Zhu?"

"Well, Brother Zhu is taking pictures over there. Should I go call him over?" Liu Feng responded as a representative.

"It doesn't matter, let him be busy, no need to call him over." Concubine Chen said.

In front of her classmates and colleagues, she was a little afraid to get along with Cheng Zhu!

Today, Chen Jieyu came with Zhao Xiaoqian, another counselor from the University of Science and Technology.

Well, she is very loose-lipped and very gossipy. The most important thing is that she is the counselor who lives on the floor above her.

At this moment, Cheng Zhu came over by himself.

He was wondering what these three naughty dogs were doing standing there?

Could it be that I met someone familiar?

Then he saw Concubine Chen.

"Teacher Chen, Teacher Chen, you came to my shop secretly, right?" he said in his heart.

Concubine Chen did not tell him before coming to [Yuzu Tea].

He strode over and saw that Chen Jieyu was still wearing the pair of white shoes he had given her and the tight turtleneck sweater he had bought her.

But she didn't wear the camel coat that Cheng Zhu bought from MaxMara, but a thicker long down jacket.

It was particularly cold in Hangzhou today, and the coat he bought was indeed a bit thin.

"Teacher Chen." Cheng Zhu grinned as he approached.

Chen Jieyu felt his gaze linger on the turtleneck sweater and white sneakers for a moment, and then he actually nodded slightly, indicating that he was very satisfied.

"He is still examining me?" Concubine Chen said in her heart.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming?" Cheng Zhu said with a smile, his tone rather polite.

To be honest, he quite enjoyed it.

It was obvious that the two of them knew each other well, and he had even visited the other party's staff dormitory for two days.

But it’s quite fun to pretend to have a normal teacher-student relationship in front of everyone.

The dog man found it oddly amusing.

As for the counselor wearing gold-rimmed glasses, looking at his face, for some reason, he felt a little annoyed, but also a little ashamed, and some other strange emotions.

Just from the deliberately polite tone he displayed, one could tell that this guy was a bad person at heart.

He just thinks it's fun!

Before Concubine Chen could reply, the loudmouth Zhao Xiaoqian next to her spoke.

"My three classmates, I am also a counselor at our School of Information Science and my last name is Zhao."

"Student Cheng Zhu, your store is doing very good business! We have been waiting in line for ten minutes," she said.

"It's okay." Cheng Zhu said with a smile.

"You still think this is okay?" Zhao Xiaoqian smiled and said, "You are being modest!"

After that, she turned to Chen Jieyu and said, "Teacher Chen, when we return to school later, I will definitely go talk to the owner of the Jiajian Milk Tea shop at the school gate."

“They actually looked down on our Polytechnic University students’ milk tea startup project!”

"In this day and age, young people are definitely more thoughtful!" The big mouth started to show his power.

Concubine Chen listened from the side, feeling somewhat helpless.

"Hmm? Add or subtract milk tea?" Cheng Zhu asked.

"Yes, it's the Jiajian milk tea shop at the school gate that has been open for three years." said Zhao Xiaoqian.

From her narration, Cheng Zhu roughly understood what was going on.

The news that he was going to open a milk tea shop spread not only within the school, but also among merchants outside the school.

There's no way, he's not just an ordinary student, he used to be a member of an off-campus merchant.

Because the claw machine store business is so popular, he can be said to be very famous in the circle of off-campus merchants.

The world is like this, it is very big and very small at the same time.

As long as you have enough influence, even the smallest thing can spread easily.

This morning, counselors from the Information College, including Chen Jieyu and Zhao Xiaoqian, held a meeting at school.

After the meeting, Zhao Xiaoqian said she wanted to eat some fruit and insisted on asking Chen Jieyu to go to the fruit shop with her.

This Jiajian milk tea shop is right next to the fruit shop, and they happened to hear the owner of the fruit shop and the owner of Jiajian milk tea chatting there.

"I thought this young man had a good business sense."

“But I also looked at that price list.”

"How is it possible to do this?"

"That cup of milk tea he has can buy three cups from me."

"Is his milk tea made of gold?"

“And it’s across from Starbucks.”

"Forget about competing with Starbucks. Even if they open across from me, their business won't be as good as mine!"

"I made so much money from opening a claw machine store, but now it's all gone to waste."

"They are all neighbors who do business together at the school gate. They come to me for advice. I will also tell them some tips in the industry!"

"That's how young people act, in a rush and impetuous manner."

"Look carefully, no one will drink such expensive milk tea. It's useless to open it in a shopping mall!"

When Concubine Chen heard the words, she frowned on the spot.

His face, which was already a little serious, looked even more serious in an instant.

No one drinks at all?

I'm going now!

"Teacher Zhao, do you want to go to Starlight City? I'll treat you to some [Pomelo Tea]." She immediately said to Zhao Xiaoqian.

Then, the two of them took a taxi to Starlight City together.

As a result, oh my god, I worried for nothing!

How can this be considered bad business?

"Teacher Chen, I feel like the number of people lining up here can surround that Jiajian Milk Tea shop." Zhao Xiaoqian couldn't help but say on the spot.

And it’s two circles!

I don't know if it's because she is too ungrateful or because Zhao Xiaoqian likes to flatter people. Anyway, she doesn't know the relationship between Cheng Zhu and Chen Jieyu. At this moment, she said to Cheng Zhu:

"Student Cheng Zhu, as soon as I heard someone mention your store, Teacher Chen immediately brought me here to support your business. Such a counselor is really nice to students, right?"

Hearing this, Cheng Zhu stared at Chen Jieyu's pretty face with his eyes, a smile appeared on his face, and he continued, "Yes, she is very good."
