Chapter 302: Everything has a process from nothing to something
In this regard, Sang Yu can only try her best to set up multiple protection mechanisms, such as overlapping the delivery areas of several people and requiring them to gather at a fixed place at a fixed time.
For example, the delivery collection point is limited to the main door, and no delivery is made to any other collection points except the main door. Another example is to equip them with certain self-defense items.
With these rules in place, she can't say that every delivery person will be safe, but at least their safety can be guaranteed to a large extent.
It sounded pretty good. The hot-tempered Tian Lu looked at Sang Yu with scrutiny: "I haven't seen you around here before. Are you new here? Do your family members work in that store?"
From what she said, it was all flattery. No one would believe her if she said there was no vested interest involved.
Sang Yu nodded and admitted: "I am the owner of that store. This is indeed my first time here. I plan to find someone who has the time and is willing to do this job."
"Boss?"
Originally, most people present were like Xiao Lajiao, guessing that she had some vested interest in the store and might even be working in the store, but they didn't expect that she was actually the owner of the store.
Tian Lu frowned slightly and looked at her again.
The chicken feathers on her hands and the fact that most of the chicken body had been cleaned out all showed how efficient she was at work. However, she didn't look like the owner of a shop at all.
"Are you really the boss? Are you kidding me?" Tian Lu confirmed again.
Sang Yu laughed: "I'm not idle and have nothing to do, so I come here to make fun of you. The store is right there, you can find out when you go over there."
Seeing that her words were so certain and did not seem to be false, everyone was already about 70% convinced. Some of those who were close to her began to murmur in low voices.
Knowing that they couldn't be hasty, Sang Yu lowered her head and continued plucking the feathers of the chicken in her hand, taking the opportunity to give them some time to buffer and think.
After a long while, the noisy discussions gradually died down, and Tian Lu, who had spoken to her before, was pushed out to continue the conversation with her.
"As a deliveryman, can you come and go at any time?"
They had many concerns in their hearts, but they were more afraid that Sang Yu was deceiving them with high-paying jobs and trying to lure them into places like brothels.
Although they are from decent families and can escape quickly even if they are tricked into a brothel, if they are taken advantage of or even raped before they escape, they will not survive.
"You can leave at any time, but you can't leave at any time." Sang Yu didn't want to turn his store into a place where people could come and go as they pleased without any rules or order.
Before opening the store every day, she has to confirm how many deliverymen are available to deliver orders that day, so as to open takeout within a certain range.
Otherwise, it will easily lead to the situation where there are too many people placing orders, and the delivery is not timely, delaying the meal and affecting the mood; there are too few people placing orders, and there are too many deliverymen, so they cannot get orders and cannot earn money.
If this continues, the impact on the store's reputation will be a small matter, but the bigger issue will be that customers and delivery staff will be disappointed with the store.
You can leave at any time, but you can't go there at any time. It sounds quite reliable.
"I won't force you to do this. If any of you are interested, you can come find me at the Pearl Drink on Qinghuan Street tomorrow."
The chicken in his hand had been plucked cleanly without leaving a single hair. Sang Yu handed it to the woman carrying the swaddling baby, washed his hands casually in the basin, and turned to leave.
She has many places to go and can't stay here forever.
In fact, Sang Yu herself had some expectations in her mind. Many people would not believe her empty description alone, and in the end, only a few people would go to Pearl Drink.
But what she wants are these few people. A single spark can start a prairie fire, and everything has a process from nothing to something.
As long as there is one person who makes money from delivering food, people around her will come closer to ask about how to make money without her having to advertise it.
In one day, Sang Yu walked from the west to the south of the city, ran along the edge of the city wall, and told many people that Pearl Drink was recruiting delivery people.
But how many people will go in the end will only be known tomorrow.
The next morning, Sang Yu didn't arrive at Zhenzhuyin until exactly at noon.
Recently she has been coming into the city later and later. If she hadn't been worried about delivering the new chapters to the storyteller at Zhong's Teahouse, she might even have delayed her return until noon. There was nothing to do there anyway.
Sang Yu took a cup of freshly made pearl milk tea and sat on the second floor, sipping it sips at a time. She planned to wait until the street stalls opened and then walk around to see if there was anything new and interesting.
She had been busy with the pearl drinks business recently and even forgot about the small bag she had asked Xie Qiujin to sew for her. Now that she had nothing to do, she went to talk to her second uncle about business.
Although they were discussing business, she was a junior after all, so Sang Yongjing told her to bring something with her and not come empty-handed.
My uncle must have seen a lot of ordinary things, so buying some handmade products is both thoughtful and interesting.
However, before she had finished half of her milk tea, a few people with awkward faces appeared at the entrance of Pearl Drink.
Sang Yu recognized at a glance that one of them was Tian Lu, who had chatted with her yesterday, and immediately asked the shop assistant to welcome her in.
The wooden boards in the lobby had not been removed yet and the light in the house was dim, so she simply took a group of people to the backyard.
Looking at the six or seven uncomfortable, timid figures in front of her, Sang Yu smiled slightly: "Yesterday I told you that I was the owner of this store and you didn't believe me. Now you have to believe it."
His attitude was as kind as yesterday, without any arrogance at all, and there was even a hint of teasing in his words.
The few people who were originally nervous because they came to this famous and prosperous place for the first time suddenly burst into laughter, and even their nervousness dissipated a lot.
After Sang Yu finished laughing with them, she regained her composure and started talking about business.
"We were busy yesterday and time was tight, so I wasn't very clear on some things. Since you're here today, it means you trust me and want to do this job. So, I'll explain the benefits and compensation to you in detail."
Sang Yu naturally didn't intend to pay for these people's wages. Even after paying these expenses, there would still be profit margin, but who would complain about making too much money?
She wanted to follow the example of later generations and set a minimum delivery threshold, requiring a certain number of cups or a certain amount of money to be delivered, and the delivery fee for each order would range from three to five cents depending on the distance.
The store does not charge a penny for the delivery of each order, and does not charge any extra tips from customers. It will all be considered the deliveryman's remuneration.
"Then how many orders can we deliver in a day?" Tian Lu's mind was very flexible and she got straight to the point.
"That's a good question. Our restaurant hasn't officially started promoting takeout yet. We've only been trying it out on this street for a few days. I can't guarantee how many orders we'll have by then..."
As soon as Sang Yu said this, the few people who were originally happy because the reward money belonged to them suddenly became uproar, and some even wanted to leave on the spot.
