Chapter 242: Open a billiard hall?
Sister Gu nodded and said nothing. Buying a shop is not cheap. I heard that Jianhua Xiaohe spent 2,800 yuan on that bakery!
Chen Juan felt that Hongjun’s girlfriend was unlikely to marry him. She probably just wanted to date him for fun. If they were to marry, they would definitely look for someone from Beijing, so why would they look for someone from outside Beijing?
And I have no money.
"Hongjun, why don't you work in your aunt's shop for a few years, earn some money, and then return to your hometown to open a clothing store in our county. That would also be very profitable." Chen Juan suggested.
She didn't understand why he didn't have any experience in the big city.
Big cities are good, but everything costs money in big cities!
It’s better to stay in my hometown and feel comfortable.
Hongjun shook his head and said, "No, no, no, I'll stay in Jing City."
Even without Yingzi, he would still stay in Beijing.
Having seen the convenience and prosperity of big cities, why would he go to a small county? It's not like he hasn't lived in this county before and found all kinds of inconveniences there.
Chen Juan said with a smile, "You all run away, what? Am I the only one who likes to stay in my hometown?"
Sister Gu: "My hometown is pretty good."
We chatted for a while, and as it was getting late, Sister Gu and the others prepared to go back.
"Jianhua and Xiaohe, you guys are going there tomorrow, right?" asked Sister Gu and her husband before leaving.
Gu Jianhua: "Yes, we will go there tomorrow."
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, not only Gu Jianhua and Su He went to Dakuo Village, but Gu's mother and father also went to visit their mother's two brothers.
The third day of the New Year passed just like this. There were only a few relatives left, and they all visited from the first to the third day of the New Year.
In the next few days, Gu Jianhua and Su He went out to eat and drink.
I kept eating until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and I was a little scared of eating so much.
I finally waited until the tenth day and returned to Beijing.
Two days later, the group arrived in Beijing.
The train ride was so tiring that Gu's mother said, "I'm never going back."
Anyway, I've finished showing off.
The group rested for two days, and all the shops opened on the Lantern Festival.
Maybe it’s because of the holidays, the bakery and tobacco shops are doing particularly good business.
After the Lantern Festival, Su He couldn't sit still. These days she had been thinking about what kind of business to do in their sixth store.
Open a billiard hall. On the Lantern Festival, she went out for a walk with a few kids, and Changyi Changan took her to play billiard. Of course, she didn't know how to play, so she just played randomly.
There were quite a lot of people there, so Su He thought that she could open a billiard hall.
I discussed it with my family and they all thought it was a good idea.
Then open it.
She had to finish building the billiard hall before school started. She went to the Housing Authority to look at shops. Opening a billiard hall is not like a small store like a clothing store or a jewelry store. It needs to be big, at least 200 square meters.
Su He looked at several shops and finally chose one.
A large shop with an area of 500 square meters.
The asking price is 22,000.
The location is great, the shop is great, and the price is reasonable, but 22,000 is really not cheap.
She went back and discussed it with Gu Jianhua.
"We want to renovate our shop and buy a pool table. Is this ten thousand dollars enough?" asked Gu Jianhua.
Su He: "That's enough."
Gu Jianhua, "Then you can buy a wife. We have enough money at home."
They had more than 40,000 yuan in savings, and kept 10,000 yuan for emergencies, and used the rest to buy a shop or do any other business.
"OK."
Su He felt like she was stupid. How could she have forgotten that there were more than 10,000 yuan she had saved in the space?
No, spend the money as soon as possible.
The next day, Su He bought the 500-square-meter store.
With the money she had saved from the space, she bought more shops and got to know more people. The decoration of the billiard hall was different from that of the other shops, so Su He found the owner of the clothing factory she had been working with and asked him to help introduce her.
She visited other billiard halls during the renovation and also had pictures of billiard halls in the system database.
In addition to billiard tables, a billiard hall also needs chairs for watching the games, a rest area, drinks and snacks, etc.
We also have to recruit employees. Not just one or two, we have to hire at least six, including a store manager, four service staff, and a cleaner.
Her billiard hall is really too big.
Su He directly posted recruitment notices on bakery shops, clothing stores, tobacco shops and jewelry stores.
Also asked Xu Ying and Jiang Yueying to help find out if there are any classmates there.
The store manager needs to be over 25 years old, and the other four waiters need to be younger.
It’s best if they are all little girls.
After the recruitment notice was posted, it was indeed effective and soon people applied for the job.
I went to the bakery and asked.
A young man came.
"Hello, is the store hiring waiters?"
Su He happened to be there. She took a look at the other person. The young man was very handsome, tall, and looked very good.
“Yes.”
Su He moved a stool for him to sit down and talk.
Lu Jincheng was a little reserved. He sat on the chair. Su He sat opposite him and told him about the salary and benefits in the store.
"The pie shop doesn't need any more people. I just opened a billiard hall and it's still under renovation. You can go work in the billiard hall."
"40 yuan a month, with three days off."
After discussing with Gu Jianhua, we decided to increase the employees' salaries this year.
Store managers like Zhang Ning, Wei Lan, and Jiang Yueying all had their salaries raised to 50 yuan a month, while other employees received 40 yuan a month.
After Su He finished speaking, he looked at Lu Jincheng, waiting for his reply.
Lu Jincheng hesitated whether to say what was in his mouth. After thinking for a few seconds, he decided to ask.
"Auntie, can I bring my sister to work with me?"
Su He, "?"
"There's no one at home to look after my sister, so you can pay me a little less. My sister is very well behaved. She won't make trouble and won't interfere with my work." Lu Jincheng said while looking at Su He, feeling a little uneasy.
His request is a bit excessive, but there is nothing we can do.
Su He, "How old is your sister?"
Lu Jincheng, "She is three years old. Don't worry, auntie. I will send her to kindergarten after I earn my first month's salary."
