Chapter 448 There is good news in your Yang family!
Yang Lirong is worthy of being someone who has worked in a state-owned enterprise. Her work efficiency is indeed very high.
In just three days, she successfully found all the necessary suppliers for Su Mei's "Huo Su Department Store".
The products provided by these suppliers cover multiple categories such as food and daily necessities, ensuring that the supermarket can meet the various needs of customers.
After getting the exact news, Su Mei personally went to various supply locations, met with the suppliers and paid the corresponding amounts.
Now the country has regulations that we can only cooperate with state-owned enterprises, and private individuals do not have the right to open factories!
Su Mei does not have to worry about her money being taken away. After all, the safety of state-owned enterprises is guaranteed.
Then, on the morning of the fourth day, a steady stream of vehicles loaded with goods drove into the supermarket’s unloading area.
The goods are piled up like mountains, making people passing by the supermarket stop and look.
The news of the opening of Su Mei Supermarket spread like wildfire.
After hearing the news, the neighbors came to watch.
Some asked about the prices out of curiosity, while others excitedly discussed how shopping would be more convenient in the future and they no longer had to go to distant department stores to buy things.
The open atmosphere of Yenching University made people full of understanding and support for Su Mei's entrepreneurial venture.
Perhaps the wind of reform has been blowing strongly enough, and no one mentions the word "speculation" anymore.
Instead, Su Mei has become a "trendsetter" who can keep up with the trend in the eyes of her neighbors.
For the sake of good luck, Su Mei decided to open the business on the second day of the second lunar month.
On February 2, the dragon raises its head, which sounds auspicious.
As the store was not open yet, Su Mei took some herbs from her hometown to visit the troops.
She gave the old soldiers in the army a strengthening treatment and distributed the medicinal herbs she brought back from Yanjing to them.
With these herbs, they can relieve their pain for at least half a year.
At the end of half a year, Su Mei will return to her hometown and bring back a batch of medicinal materials.
Lele continued to ask Qin Zhengting to help with the treatment, and Su Mei just sent all the medicinal materials over.
At this point, Su Mei had arranged for all her patients.
This way she can focus her time on what she wants to do.
Two days before the opening, she asked Liang Shizheng to design an exquisite opening bonus flyer, and personally went to Yenching University and asked several students to help distribute it.
The preferential information on the flyer spread quickly throughout the campus, creating enough momentum for the opening of the supermarket.
The day of February 2nd is coming soon.
Su Mei and Huo Jianguo decided to start the business on their own without informing anyone else.
It happened to be a weekend, so they got up early in the morning, had breakfast, and then opened the store.
With a crisp "swish" sound, the red cloth covering the plaque was pulled off, revealing six large characters:
Hosu Department Store!
The red cloth was pulled down by Su Mei.
The moment she pulled down the red cloth, Huo Jianguo lit a string of firecrackers hanging at the door.
Then there was a burst of crackling firecrackers in the alley.
After the firecrackers were set off, the students outside the door could no longer wait and rushed into the store.
The early morning sunlight shone obliquely, just falling on the supermarket sign, reflecting a dazzling light.
Su Mei and Huo Jianguo stood in front of the cashier counter, working busy and orderly.
Su Mei was in charge of calculating the amount of goods. She quickly used the abacus and looked up from time to time to communicate with customers.
Huo Jianguo held a handful of change in his hands and quickly gave change to the customers.
Even though they had rehearsed beforehand and had good coordination, they still seemed a little flustered in the face of the surging crowds.
"Senior Su Mei, how much is this?"
"Boss, give me a bottle of soy sauce."
"Doctor Su, can you give me a discount on this paper?"
“Give me some spicy noodles!”
"Give me a drink!"
“I want this chocolate pie!”
…
Students and neighbors were chattering as they selected their favorite snacks. The supermarket was bustling with people coming and going.
Although Su Mei and Huo Jianguo were extremely busy, their faces were filled with joy that they could not conceal.
The better the business, the happier you will be.
That day, the two were busy until the evening and didn't even have time to eat lunch.
By noon, the two were so hungry that they grabbed a few bags of snacks from the supermarket and ate a few bites in a hurry.
Because there were still many customers in the store, they could only continue operating while eating snacks.
It was not until eight o'clock in the evening that the customers in the supermarket gradually dispersed.
Most students have returned to their dormitories in accordance with school regulations.
The nine o'clock closing time brings the supermarket back to complete peace and quiet.
Su Mei and Huo Jianguo closed the door and began to count today's sales.
When they saw the numbers on the account book, they couldn't help but be surprised - on the first day of business, they sold more than 900 yuan.
After deducting the cost, I can earn more than 400 yuan!
Although both of them guessed that business would be booming, the turnover was still far beyond their expectations.
"Old Huo, if we keep doing this every day, we'll be rich!" Su Mei said excitedly, pointing at the account book.
Huo Jianguo smiled and nodded:
"Yeah, I never thought a supermarket could make so much money. What they made in one day is equivalent to my two-month salary!
But it’s impossible to do this every day. We had discounts and offers on the first day of opening, and many students came to see the excitement, and many neighbors came to support our business. It’s impossible to do this every day in the future.”
"I know, I'm not stupid!" Su Mei continued to count the larger bills with a smile.
Even if it is impossible to have such good business every day, this store is located next to Yenching University after all, so it is definitely impossible for the business to be bad.
And Su Mei's ambition goes far beyond that.
She plans to build her own business empire in the future. This small supermarket is just a start-up. As long as it can make a profit, it's fine. She doesn't expect to make much money from it.
Currently, she is hoping to turn a small amount of money into a large sum of money, and she will be happy if she can make some money.
After counting the money and putting it away and locking it up, Su Meicai and Huo Jianguo dragged their tired bodies back to their own room to cook.
Because both of them were tired, they simply cooked a bowl of noodles each for dinner and mixed it with the fried chili noodles that they had prepared earlier.
After finishing their meal and washing up briefly, the two went to bed and fell asleep.
As Huo Jianguo expected, business on the second day was not as busy as the first day.
But there were still customers coming in and out of the store, so the store didn't seem deserted.
That's good, they can finally take time out for lunch.
It was a little quiet at noon, so Huo Jianguo took the opportunity to go out to buy groceries. He quickly bought back fresh vegetables and meat.
After returning to the store, he went straight to the kitchen and made a bowl of green pepper and shredded pork rice for Su Mei.
After the food was ready, he brought both the rice and the dishes to Su Mei and motioned for her to eat at the counter.
Su Mei was also feeling a little hungry, so she picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
Huo Jianguo stood quietly by, watching Su Mei chew and swallow every bite of food.
Only after Su Mei finished the last bite did he pick up the empty bowl with satisfaction and return to the kitchen to wash it.
In the following days, the supermarket's customer flow remained relatively stable. It was neither particularly busy nor completely empty.
The profit is still considerable. On average, the net profit is more than 100 yuan a day.
Huo Jianguo has finally realized how lucrative it is to start a business on your own.
No wonder Su Mei insisted on quitting her job in the system and starting her own business. With the speed at which she can make money, anyone would be tempted.
Time flies so fast, and it's the weekend in the blink of an eye.
Although the supermarket opened on that day, Su Mei did not notify anyone.
But at the weekend, Li Shufen still called Qiuqiu, Yang Suhua and Zeng Shengqiang to go to the supermarket to congratulate Su Mei.
In addition to them, Su Mei finally met her fifth brother Su Shengxue, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
I haven't seen him for three months, and Su Shengxue has changed a lot.
He changed into a white shirt and suit, shaped his messy eyebrows, and wore shiny leather shoes.
He is good-looking to begin with, and after dressing up like this, he actually looks a bit like a tough guy in the movies.
Seeing him dressed like this, Su Mei couldn't help but ask him:
"Fifth brother, you don't know how to act anymore, do you?"
"I didn't act, I just made a cameo appearance." Su Shengxue replied with a smile.
Guest appearance? He has already learned how to guest appearance. Su Mei thought that Su Shengxue could only do odd jobs in the crew!
I didn't expect that I had already started playing a guest role. I thought that Fifth Brother was a quick learner.
After asking about the fifth brother's recent developments in the crew, Su Mei started chatting with other people.
While chatting casually with other people, Su Mei suddenly locked her eyes on Yang Suhua.
"Su Mei, why are you looking at me?" Yang Suhua asked after noticing Su Mei looking at her.
The reason why Su Mei suddenly stared at Yang Suhua like this was because she suddenly remembered that she had not yet told Yang Suhua what happened in the Yang family!
You should tell her something to make her happy.
Thinking of this, Su Mei said directly to Yang Suhua:
"Sister Suhua, the last time I saw you, I forgot to tell you that there is a happy event in your Yang family!"
