Chapter 167: Going out to celebrate



Shao Jingque refused to agree. If she really offered Wang Yuquan a salary of 20 yuan a month, wouldn't she become "Zhou Baopi"?

"Brother Wang, please don't be polite with us. This is the basic salary in our store. It's the same for everyone. When the photo studio's business gets on track, the salary can be raised!"

Wu Shuang didn't know what words of thanks she could say to express her gratitude to Shao Jingque and the others. She could only hold Shao Jingque's hand with tears in her eyes and nodded repeatedly:

"Thank you, Sister Jingque, thank you all!"

In the recent short period of time, Wu Shuang's family's life has undergone earth-shaking changes:

The family moved from the dark and damp stairwell into the largest and best single room in the dormitory building. Wang Yuquan also came out of her depression and regained the courage to live. Now she has a job with a good salary. All this was brought to her by Shao Jingque, and she was deeply grateful to Shao Jingque.

Shao Jingque patted her hands. She knew that it was not easy for Wu Shuang to support a family alone over the years. What she could do was limited. What she hoped to see more was that Wang Yuquan could truly "stand up" this time, and the couple could work together to earn money to support the family and live a better life.

It was decided that Wang Yuquan would come to work in the store, and Shao Jingque became concerned about the business of the photo studio today.

The whole day today, Rong Yongsi was busy taking pictures, Yue Feiying was busy putting on makeup, and collecting money and other chores were left to Wang Yuquan. This was also what touched Wang Yuquan deeply - after all, not everyone can do the job of collecting money, so at least it means that they trust him!

Wang Yuquan took out a tin box and a thin-covered notebook from the drawer and shyly handed them to Shao Jingque:

"Sister Jingque, I haven't studied accounting, so I don't know if this account is correct. There's only one customer registered in a row, but the money is definitely enough. Take a look."

Shao Jingque took the tin box and the thin-covered notebook, counted the money in the tin box, a total of 280 yuan, and then looked at the account recorded by Wang Yuquan. Although it was not standardized, every entry was recorded very clearly. It was clear at a glance that there were ten groups of customers choosing to shoot in both single and double scenes today. The account matched the actual situation and there was no problem.

Rong Yongsi had been busy all day and had no time to focus on the accounts. Now, after Shao Jingque finished the accounts, he realized that he had earned the money in just one day that he had previously estimated that he would have to work for a year to earn. He was suddenly dazed.

Looking at Shao Jingque and Yue Feiying who looked calm, he admired them even more. Their composure in the face of money alone was worth learning from.

No wonder Shao Jingque agreed to recruit people so readily just now. It was entirely because she was confident and confident in the photo studio business.

Wang Yuquan flipped through two more pages, which recorded the appointment date, specific time period, and the name of the customer.

"These are the guests who made reservations today. They are currently booked until Saturday, and the reservation tickets my boss gave me have all been issued."

It’s not Rong Yongsi’s fault that he wasn’t well prepared. He really didn’t expect the photo studio to be so popular.

He roughly estimated the number of people who came on the day when the appointment numbers were distributed last time, and there were about fifty or sixty people. He even specially prepared twice as many stamped appointment numbers to distribute, but he didn't expect that they were still sold out.

Shao Jingque was not surprised. Back when photo shoots were at their most popular, the streets were full of photo studios and all the girls who loved beauty had their photos taken three or five times. Even when she was a child, she had found two sets of photos taken by her mother, and the makeup was exactly the same as in the MVs of Hong Kong and Taiwan song VCDs.

Although Ning City is not the capital, it is also a provincial capital with a total population of nearly four million, including more than one million urban residents. This means that the base of potential female customers for their photo studio is in the hundreds of thousands, so there is no need to worry about a lack of customers.

However, this way of accounting and registering information is definitely not feasible. It will be too messy to organize in less than a week. Shao Jingque plans to go back to the guesthouse in the evening to draw two forms, and then find a printing shop to print them into books to facilitate special book management.

She then asked Rong Yongsi and Yue Feiying:

"Twenty customers today, can you handle it? It would be bad if you have to work overtime until eight or nine every day. If you can't handle it, you can just serve fewer customers every day in the early stages."

Rong Yongsi only knew how to concentrate on his work and had no idea of ​​being too busy.

As long as there are customers, he can keep taking pictures, but he also knows that this does not mean that others are willing to work at such a high intensity, so he cannot give accurate advice.

Yue Feiying thought about it carefully and counted on her fingers:

"If we allow for more time, one customer will need 20 minutes for makeup and 20 minutes for photo taking. But after the first customer starts taking photos, the second customer can start makeup, and so on. We can receive a new customer almost every 20 minutes."

"That means after the first customer's photo shoot, I can complete a photo shoot every 20 minutes, so I can shoot seven in the morning. After the first customer's photo shoot in the afternoon, I can shoot 13 before I get off work at 6 o'clock, which means I can shoot exactly 20 in a day."

"It's just that today is the first day of business, so it's inevitable that things are a bit hectic, otherwise it wouldn't have taken so long to close."

Shao Jingque thought about it and realized that practice makes perfect. Once everyone was familiar with the process, there should still be enough time.

"Okay, then for the first month, we'll temporarily keep the daily reservation limit at 20. We'll see how the situation develops before the end of the month and make adjustments."

Hearing Yue Feiying mention the time, Rong Yongsi subconsciously looked up at the wall clock, only to find that it was already 7:30 in the evening and the sky outside the window had already darkened.

Wang Yuquan also realized that Wu Shuang must have come to him out of worry because she saw that he hadn't returned home even after dark. He then turned to her apologetically and said:

"Have you and mom eaten yet? Next time if you're late, don't wait for me. I can just heat it up and eat it myself when I get back."

Wu Shuang nodded:

"I'll ask Mom to take Xiaogang to eat first while I'm out, and then we'll eat together when we get back."

Shao Jingque laughed and said:

"Why go back and eat? Today is the first day of business for Yongsi Photo Studio and we've achieved such great results. We also gained a capable employee, Brother Wang, to join us. We definitely need to go out to eat to celebrate!"

Rong Yongsi agreed with both hands:

"Yes, yes, yes! We must celebrate! Welcome, Brother Wang, to Yongsi Photo Studio. I wish our studio's business will prosper!"

Yue Feiying was already hungry. If she hadn't seen Shao Jingque counting the bills, she would have mentioned eating out. When she heard the topic finally turned to eating out, she immediately perked up:

"I suggest going to Xiefang Garden! The food there is delicious!"
