When they heard that they were planning to expand their business, both Zhu Qiqi and Song Mingming's eyes gleamed.
Zhu Qiqi was the most enthusiastic and asked immediately, "Qingcheng, do you mean that we should buy a few more stools and tables? This is true. The business is so hot right now that there are not enough tables and chairs in the store. Many people have to stand and wait for others to finish eating before they can sit down."
Song Mingming thought for a moment and added, "We just hired some people, and now the store can just handle the work. But if we add a few more tables and chairs, I'm afraid we won't have enough help. Qingcheng, I think we need to hire more people."
When Gu Qingcheng heard their thoughts, he laughed and shook his head.
"No, no, you two are wrong. Of course we need to prepare tables and chairs, but that's not why I called you here today."
The two thought about it and felt that Qingcheng was right. For such a small matter, she could just inform them directly. Why did she have to call them over for a meeting?
Could it be that this was too big, bigger than they had imagined?
The two thought about it for a while, and Song Mingming suddenly had an idea and said, "Qingcheng, you are not going to rent a storefront, are you? My god, this is not a small cost, and the direction of the store is also very particular, the feng shui must be good, do you have any ideas now? Why don't we go and take a look now? It is indeed a big deal."
Gu Qingcheng also considered the issue of renting a storefront.
"There's no rush for this matter. I've asked someone to look after it, and I should have a response in a few days."
"So fast?" They were both surprised. They didn't expect Qingcheng to be so thoughtful.
Gu Qingcheng nodded slightly.
"That's right, but what I want to talk about today is something else. Buying a store and hiring employees are just small-scale expansions of the business. It's different from what I thought at the beginning. My current plan is to see if we can create a business model and open more wonton shops, so that our influence is not limited to the area around our school."
Song Mingming and Zhu Qiqi listened attentively. From what Qingcheng said, they knew that the store was much bigger than they had imagined.
Zhu Qiqi has always been a quick-witted person, so he said immediately.
"Qingcheng, I think I understand what you mean. Just like the expert He who came here a while ago, she works at Jiang City People's Hospital, but in order to eat our bowl of wontons, she ran to the gate of our school. The distance between us is more than ten kilometers, which wasted her time. It's okay for her to come once in a while, but if she wants to eat every day, she definitely doesn't have the time."
Gu Qingcheng said "hmm" and continued to guide: "So, I was thinking, if there is such a wonton shop near Jiang City People's Hospital, then Expert He will eat wontons more often, right?"
"Huh? That's what's going on!" Song Mingming was completely impressed by Gu Qingcheng. She could think of any solution.
She pinched her chin and thought, "Qingcheng, if we really do as you said, I can run this shop. I have been learning from you for so long, and now I can make wontons without any problems!"
Song Mingming was very confident. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. When she saw the wonton skin, she subconsciously pinched it into the shape of a wonton.
Gu Qingcheng laughed: "Mingming, you don't need to go there."
"Hmm?" Song Mingming pursed her lips, not angry. Gu Qingcheng's recipe was a unique secret. It was very important. Qingcheng should be worried that she would leak it.
Song Mingming assured: "Qingcheng, don't worry, I will never tell anyone the formula. If it really doesn't work, I can write you a letter of guarantee! If I leak it, let me..."
As he spoke, Song Mingming pretended to clench his fist with one hand and place it next to his forehead.
Gu Qingcheng hurried over, took her hand and said.
"Mingming, look at you, what are you talking about? Why would I care about this?"
"You and I are good friends, so I trust you. I don't let you go because I think the job is too tiring. You have to be busy with your studies, and if you just stay in the store, you won't be able to take care of your studies. It's not suitable for you. That's one reason."
"As for the second point, there are only three of us in total. Not to mention that I'm pregnant now, and my labor force is halved. Even if the three of us work from morning till night, we can only open three branches at most. Jiang City is so big, there are eight districts alone. If we open three wonton shops, we can't even guarantee to open one in each district. The influence is totally insufficient."
