On the day school was out, Zhou Yi arrived at the Ruan family's house full of excitement.
"Sister Qiu, according to the membership card recharge system you mentioned, we already have nearly five thousand members, including sixty-five black card members."
"Many people from surrounding cities come here specifically to buy this skin-whitening product."
Zhou Yi rubbed his hands together, somewhat excited.
The demand for snow-white skin products far exceeds the supply, and many people have tried to buy them on the secondhand market even at ten times the price, but still couldn't find them.
After Zhou Yi told Ruan Qiushui the news, she launched a membership card system.
A one-time recharge of 500 yuan will grant you a regular membership card, giving you priority access to purchase skin whitening products.
A one-time top-up of 2,000 yuan upgrades your membership card to a silver card, granting you priority access to purchase skin whitening products and exclusive reservation privileges.
Top up 5,000 yuan at once to upgrade to a gold card. In addition to the above privileges, you can also enjoy the opportunity to try out new products every quarter.
For top-tier wealthy women who recharge over 10,000 yuan, they are upgraded to VIP Black Cards. In addition to the aforementioned privileges, they can also have skincare products custom-made to meet their individual skin needs.
"Sister Qiu, this is the sales figure for last quarter. Please check it."
The store had just finished a large-scale event, and Zhou Yi stayed up for two nights to compile the sales reports for July to September.
During this period, with the professional guidance and training from Ruan Qiushui, Zhou Yi made a significant breakthrough in his skills with spreadsheets.
From its initial rough and chaotic state, it has become well-organized and easy to understand.
If it weren't for the fact that very few of Zhou Yi's trusted underlings were literate, he would have really wanted to give this job to them.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Ruan Qiushui took the report and examined it carefully.
"Busy?"
Gu Changfeng brewed a pot of tea and placed it on the table.
"Brother Gu."
Zhou Yi stood up to greet him.
This is Sister Qiu's man. As Sister Qiu's younger brother, he should naturally respect his brother-in-law.
"Don't be shy, order whatever you like."
Gu Changfeng pressed him back onto the stool and walked out.
He was simply worried that his wife was thirsty, not jealous.
Ruan Qiushui had no intention of hiding the matter between Xueji and Zhou Yi.
On the day Xueji officially opened, Ruan Qiushui brought her family to support the event.
He Ruyi and Liu Sanmei were particularly supportive of Ruan Qiushui's work.
Not only did she buy the entire set of Smooth Skin products herself, but she also recommended them to her friends and colleagues, which boosted her sales significantly.
More than half of the 65 black card members in the recently launched membership card program are credited to them.
"This month's performance was good, keep it up."
Ruan Qiushui nodded in agreement.
"How's the development of the new product I asked you to develop going?"
The new seasonal products represent yet another test for Zhou Yi from Ruan Qiushui.
The Snow White skincare line can't just have these few varieties forever, otherwise it will soon be imitated and surpassed by others.
Only by continuously innovating and improving ingredients and efficacy can we firmly retain customers.
"Inspired by Sister Qiu's previous work, our R&D team has upgraded the Sekkisei Basic Series this time, making the simple hydration, moisturizing and cleansing products more functional."
"The Rhodiola Rosea series has whitening, antioxidant, and brightening effects."
"The purslane series has anti-allergic, anti-redness, and repairing effects."
"And lipsticks, we conducted a street survey and increased the number of shades to five based on popular preferences."
After Zhou Yi finished speaking, he looked at Ruan Qiushui with shining eyes, seeking praise.
"Very good, you did a great job."
Ruan Qiushui clapped her hands in approval.
Zhou Yi is indeed a rare talent, not only skilled in managing his subordinates but also possessing a keen business sense.
"Zhou Yi, take a look at this. If there are no problems, then sign it."
Ruan Qiushui produced a contract outlining the profit distribution for Xueji (a skincare brand).
The company won't be established until 1986, so we'll distribute the shares then.
"Sister Qiu, what's this?"
Zhou Yi quickly glanced at it and found that it stated that Ruan Qiushui, the owner of Xueji, voluntarily gave Zhou Yi 10% of Xueji's net profit.
"Sister Qiu, I'm working for you voluntarily, so that I can realize my ambitions, not for the money."
Zhou Yi was flattered; this gift was far too precious.
"This is what you deserve. From now on, you'll be the second boss of Snow Skin."
Compared to Zhou Yi's efforts during this period, Ruan Qiushui acted like a hands-off manager.
In order to make it better serve my purposes and contribute more to the skin whitening industry, one-tenth of the profit is not much, but it is worth it.
"Sister Qiu, you're so good to me."
"I will definitely work hard to manage my skincare business and earn more money in the future, so as not to let Sister Qiu down."
Don't underestimate this one-tenth of the net profit. Snow Skin is just starting out. If he distributes one-tenth of the net profit, he can earn 10,000 yuan this month.
Next month, high-end new products will be launched, and profits will only increase.
The snow-white skincare line will continue to expand its scale and reach a wider audience; imagine how many tens of thousands it will have by then!
"As long as you do a good job, I won't treat you unfairly."
If we can all make money, then we'll all benefit.
As long as Zhou Yi doesn't cause any trouble and is focused on Xueji, everything is negotiable.
If he dares to betray her one day, ha! She has plenty of ways to torture him.
"Sister Qiu, when are we going to open a branch?"
Currently, Sekkisei only has one store in Beijing, and many regular customers find it inconvenient to queue up because it's too far from their homes.
Moreover, the large number of people rushing to grab the new products at the entrance makes it easy for stampedes to occur.
If something were to happen, losing money would be a minor issue, but it would damage the reputation of Xueji (a skincare brand).
"Let's open three more branches and try to cover all parts of Beijing."
It's best to leave this matter entirely to Zhou Yi.
Besides going to school, her most important task now is to accompany the children as they grow up.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements when I get back."
Zhou Yi was full of confidence.
Opening a branch store is no small matter.
Not only do you need to select suitable shops, but you also need to recruit and train people and carry out opening promotion.
Oh, and we also need to get a small delivery truck.
After Zhou Yi left, Gu Changfeng went to the room.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Ruan Qiushui was puzzled when she saw her husband come in and sit there without saying a word.
She doesn't seem jealous. Could it be that she has something on her mind?
"Honey, I have to go to another province and I probably won't be back for another week. I'll leave things at home to you."
During this time, seeing his wife's fair skin earning money, Gu Changfeng felt ashamed.
So after much deliberation, I decided to find a way to make money.
Gu Changfeng contacted his former comrades-in-arms, invested the money he had earned from his missions, and used his connections to buy three large trucks, thus establishing the Shunfengshunshui Transportation Fleet.
This first order involved transporting a batch of goods worth 50,000 yuan from Beijing to H city, a round trip that would take at least seven days.
"Go ahead and do what you need to do. Don't worry, I'm here for you at home."
No matter what Gu Changfeng does, Ruan Qiushui will support him unconditionally; she trusts him.
