"Boss, we're out of crispy dinner rolls! Only three plates left!"
"Boss, we're out of pineapple buns!"
"Boss, there are only sixty-odd golden cakes left!"
"boss……"
...
At 4:30 p.m., He Wenlin's store announced that it was running out of goods!
He Wenlin immediately called Wei Hanqing and asked him to deliver the goods as soon as possible.
We're worried about not having enough to sell and running out of stock. Making cakes, cooling them, processing them, packaging them, and shipping them all take time and can't be done all at once, so we've scheduled two day shifts for today.
After receiving He Wenlin's call, Wei Hanqing immediately loaded the car and said he would definitely arrive within an hour!
At 5:30, the store only had cupcakes and cream puffs left.
Everything else is gone.
Many people still haven't been able to buy it.
There's another peak period in the evening.
He Wenlin didn't expect it to sell so well!
Apart from the pineapple buns, which were only prepared in 30 portions, and the pork floss buns, which were prepared in 50 boxes, all other products were prepared in quantities of 150 or more.
He Wenlin had participated in the opening of many stores in her past life, and she had never seen a store that was out of stock!
He Wenlin underestimated the purchasing power at this time!
Don't assume that low per capita income means weak purchasing power!
Fortunately, Wei Hanqing arrived just then, pulling a truckload of goods.
They arrived just in time!
But there were too many people, so we couldn't get in at all!
"Make way, make way." He Wenlin finally managed to squeeze out, then squatted down and together with Wei Hanqing moved the stack of turnover boxes, which were taller than her, down and pushed them into the store little by little.
There were three stacks in total. He Wenhua saw them and offered to help unload the last two stacks, so He Wenlin didn't have to worry about them.
Xia Lijuan said with a smile, "My goodness, business is so good that we can't even get the goods in."
He Wenlin pushed the basket: "Excuse me, everyone, please let us in for a moment. The goods have arrived—golden cakes and cupcakes—they've arrived..."
Before He Wenlin could finish speaking, a group of customers who had already tried the product took it without her having to stock it up.
If there's one, then there are two, three...
Everything went completely wrong.
The rush has begun; everyone's afraid they won't be able to buy them.
"Don't grab! Everyone, don't grab! Don't push! There's plenty of stock, everyone gets a share, don't fight!"
He Wenlin really wanted to say that this thing wasn't valuable, it wasn't some rare and precious elixir, and there was really no need to do this.
He Ma, He Shan, and Xiaomi came out and spread their arms to block the way, so He Wenlin, Wei Hanqing, and He Wenhua quickly pushed the items into the store.
Immediately afterwards, we rushed to stock up on the goods.
If you don't care about how nice or aesthetically pleasing the display is, at least make sure the countertop isn't empty.
These customers are like they're starving; you don't even know if any of them are skipping out on their bills. It's too chaotic; you can't stop them, and you can't physically pull them away, or it might even cause a conflict.
By six o'clock, it finally got a little quieter.
He Wenlin breathed a sigh of relief.
He Wenlin told the three employees to go eat first, as they would definitely have to work overtime today.
Just then, Mr. He called to ask if they were particularly busy.
“We’re very busy, there are so many people. This is the only time we’re relaxed. Have you eaten yet? Would you like me to bring you some? That’s fine.” He Wenlin looked at the food and then said, “There are nine people in total, so please bring nine boxed meals.”
After hanging up the phone, He Wenlin said to everyone, "My dad will bring some food over in a bit. Big brother and sister-in-law, Xiaomi, Xiaoyue, and Xiaoyu, I've also brought your portions. Don't eat the bento boxes. If you're hungry, have some cake to eat first."
There are fewer customers right now, so everyone should take the opportunity to put the goods on the shelves quickly.
Around 7 o'clock, it's time to get busy again.
"Linlin, your business is booming!" Xia Lijuan said enviously. "It seems like nothing can stump you."
He Wenlin: "Today's sale is cheap. Such a big cake, only two dollars each, where can you buy that? A pineapple bun like this would definitely cost a dollar outside, but I'm only selling it for a few cents. If the price were back to normal, I would be laughing in my sleep if I could have this much business today."
“Definitely,” He Wenhua said. “Hui Yazi came here once before, but he saw that there were too many people and it was too busy, so he went back and said he would come back to support us tomorrow.”
He Hui originally wanted to buy something, but when he saw the huge crowd, he was scared away.
"Linlin, your business is so good, do you need people to work in your factory?" Xia Lijuan asked.
"We don't need it for now."
"Can you arrange for someone to do this?"
Whom do you want to arrange?
Xia Lijuan said, "Isn't my sister coming soon? We can go then."
"Your injury hasn't healed yet. Your sister is here; isn't she going to help you?"
Xia Lijuan thought that Grandma He was doing a good job for her, and she didn't have to pay her wages, so she wanted Grandma He to continue helping her, but she didn't want to say it directly.
Xia Lijuan's plan was that once her sister arrived, she would first start working for He Wenlin. Once she was employed there, Old Lady He would naturally be able to help her. As for the opening of the convenience store, there were other people there to handle that.
Xia Lijuan believed that even without Grandma He, the convenience store would still operate. The fact that they had previously mentioned sending Grandma He back to her hometown during the summer vacation indicated that there were other people who could replace her.
Xia Lijuan paused for a moment and said, "I can ask someone else for help. Besides, it's better for girls to learn some skills."
"So, what you're saying, sister-in-law, is that you want your younger sister to come to my shop to learn how to make cakes, and that you don't want her to work as a sales clerk anymore, right?"
"What I mean is, we ordinary people don't have your skills, so it's good to have some skills to rely on. Linlin, what do you think?"
“Learning a skill is fine, but if you only want to learn a skill, you have to work for me for at least six years. Your salary will gradually increase based on your ability and years of service, just like Lin Fei did. Lin Fei signed a contract with me, and he would have to pay compensation if he breached it. It was all notarized, right, sister-in-law?”
"Huh?" Xia Lijuan was a little unhappy. This was even more painful than a direct rejection. "Our family, and you still..."
“Sister-in-law, forgive me for speaking frankly, but no matter how close your sister is, she can’t be as close as my second brother. My second brother has to work for me for six years.”
However, her relationship with He Wenjun was based on kinship, and there was no so-called contract.
A complete stranger wants to learn a skill for free? Dream on!
He Wenhua quickly said, "It's too early to talk about these things now. Your arm isn't healed yet. Let's talk about it when your sister arrives."
Xia Lijuan's expression changed, and her tone became cold and harsh: "Linlin, are you afraid that if we learn your skills, we'll steal your business?"
"I'm not worried about that. I've spent over 100,000 yuan to open this shop so far."
The implication was that they couldn't afford to open such a store, and the small shops on the street weren't considered He Wenlin's competitors.
"If she wants to learn how to open her own shop, I can agree to let her work for me for a year without pay, but I can arrange accommodation. You can consider it."
That's equivalent to a year's worth of labor for tuition.
