Chapter 125: Make Your Own Decision
Originally, when the waiter in the store went to the back to find him, he was busy developing photos.
What he hates most is being disturbed while working.
Moreover, this waiter has been working in his shop for more than ten years and is considered to be someone who understands his temperament quite well.
So, generally speaking, no one would disturb him while he was working.
This special situation probably happened before, and there was something that the waiter couldn't solve.
The shop owner was originally a little unhappy when he saw the waiter.
He thought that nothing was more important than his work, so it would be better for the waiter to tell him about the matter when he finished his work and went out. It would still be in time for him.
He was about to get angry immediately. After all, he was a man and his thoughts were not so delicate.
There is not much that is so special as imagined.
At this moment, he was just annoyed because the clerk interrupted his work.
After all, their photo studio business has always been quite popular. There are countless people outside, waiting to pick up their photos after taking them in their store.
If he doesn't hurry up and develop the photos, when the agreed date comes and the customers come to pick up the photos, he won't have anything to give them. Wouldn't that be a breach of contract?
Over the years, in order to ensure punctuality, their store has always made appointments with customers to pick up the films one week after the photo shoot.
If the photos have not been developed after a week, you will have to pay liquidated damages based on the number of days.
If the delivery is delayed for one day, the customer will have to pay one dollar as compensation.
Recently, it is the time of changing seasons, so many people come to their store to take photos.
And he also took several-inch photos, so he became very busy. Basically, every day he didn't even have time to eat, and he was developing photos in this developing room.
The clerk also knew about this situation.
Generally speaking, as long as she can solve the problem, she will not bother him.
The boss thought about it. After so many years of friendship, he did not get angry with the clerk. Instead, he directly asked with a frown:
"What's the matter? Can you come to the back to find me? Don't you know I'm busy?"
"If you have something to say, please say it quickly. After that, I still have to go develop the photos. It's almost dark now, and I still have more than a dozen photos to develop."
"When the customer comes to pick up the photos, can we afford to compensate them for their losses?"
Even though their store has earned a lot of money over the years, if one or two people are required to pay the penalty for breach of contract, they will really be bankrupt.
Therefore, the boss would rather suffer a little and develop all the photos that were taken at the agreed time and put them there, which would make him feel a lot more relieved.
No one likes the feeling of being in a rush.
It would be better to finish all these tasks as soon as possible, so that you can feel more at ease when you stay here.
When the clerk saw her boss's unhappy look, she immediately realized that her boss was probably unhappy because he felt that she was disturbing his work.
This shop assistant is usually a sensible person, and under normal circumstances, she would never disturb her boss.
So, if this is the case, it must be something urgent, so she spoke quickly:
"Boss, don't be angry. I have something urgent to tell you. We have a big order in our store."
"There was a customer in front who wanted to develop 500 photos. I told her I could give her half the price, but after all, the number of photos she needed to develop was too much."
"After calculating the price, the customer felt it was still a bit expensive, so he asked me if it could be cheaper."
"After all, I'm not the boss, so I can't make up my mind. So I came to the back to ask you what you think."
"I think it's not easy to get such a big order, we should cherish it. If possible, we should try to reduce the price for her, don't you think?"
The clerk spoke in a cautious tone.
Anyway, I have worked in this store for many years.
So, she naturally knew how high the profit of this photo studio was.
The boss originally had an unhappy look on his face, but when he heard the waiter say that someone wanted to develop 500 photos, his eyes widened in shock.
Such a big deal, shouldn't it be decided by him himself?
The boss roughly estimated in his mind the profit that their store could make from developing these 500 photos.
He simply put down the work he was doing.
After all, just as the clerk said, it was indeed a big business, so of course he had to go to the front in person to see what the customer wanted.
He took the shop assistant and ran to the front in a hurry.
When he entered the store, he was still looking around, thinking that anyone who could develop more than 500 photos at once must be a big boss.
As a result, the clerk brought him directly to Jiang Xin.
A young girl who looked not very old wanted to develop more than 500 photos. He instantly felt that this was inexplicably outrageous.
It’s not that he looks down on people, but he has been running a photo studio for so many years and this is the first time he has seen such a thing.
What did he think of Jiang Xin? She didn't seem like someone who could afford to spend money.
Besides, why would a little girl like her need to develop so many photos?
This is not a joke!
So, he didn't even ask Jiang Xin, but turned around and asked the waiter:
"It's really your fault. You've worked in our store for so many years, how come you don't have this much brains?"
"Look at this little girl. She is so young. Does she look like she can make her own decision and spend so much money to develop photos?"
The waiter was completely confused by the scolding from the store owner.
She looked at Jiang Xin and thought that although this girl looked young, she was an adult after all. She should still be able to make the decision on such a small matter.
But on second thought, what the boss said does make some sense.
Looking at Jiang Xin's age, it doesn't seem like she can make money independently. If she spends such a large sum of money on developing photos, what will she do if her parents find out and come to their store to settle the bill?
