Chapter 503 I'm so regretful



In the morning, when He Wenlin decided to bring them here, she called He Shan and asked her to stir-fry some hot and sour shredded potatoes.

He Wenlin used a frying pan to fry four scallion pancakes, rolled up pork tenderloin and hot and sour shredded potatoes inside, and then served them to them.

"Try them first, they're all spicy, but these two have chili peppers added, so they're even spicier."

Zeng Kunpeng and the others looked at each other, completely baffled as to what He Wenlin was really up to.

He Wenlin smiled and said, "This is related to what we need to talk about, so you should try it first, and then we can talk."

The four of them then picked up the scallion pancakes and started eating.

"What do you think about selling this hand-pulled pancake at a stall? Would the students at our school like it?" He Wenlin asked.

Zeng Kunpeng: "But we don't know how to do this."

"I can sell you frozen raw dough for scallion pancakes. You don't need to thaw or add oil. Just put it on a griddle or frying pan and fry it. It's very simple."

"You just said you want to freeze things, does that mean we have to buy a refrigerator too?"

Liu Yang: "We also need to buy pots, gas stoves, etc., so the initial investment is quite large."

Zeng Kunpeng scratched his head sheepishly and said, "My monthly living expenses are only four hundred yuan, and they are not much better off than me."

“I know,” He Wenlin said. “I can buy the refrigerator and the snack cart.”

"You're buying it?" Zeng Kunpeng and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

How much money could students have? He Wenlin had guessed from the beginning that they didn't have much money. On the way here, after talking with them, she learned more about their situation.

"I'll pay for the equipment you use. If you keep setting up your stall for a semester, I'll give you the equipment."

Zeng Kunpeng: "What are you after? You can't just be trying to do good deeds."

“Yeah, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. What are you after?” Liu Yang and the others couldn’t figure it out either.

He Wenlin smiled and said, "I only have one condition, that is, the food cart must have the logo and telephone number of Huajun Frozen Food Co., Ltd."

Zeng Kunpeng immediately thought of something and blurted out, "You're going to promote this scallion pancake!!"

"That's right, I'm advertising for hand-pulled pancakes to attract more people to buy them."

Liu Yang: "But if that's the case, if business is good, we'll immediately have competitors, and we won't be able to make money."

"You were the first to try this, so even if someone asks, we'll still sell hand-pulled pancakes. It's unlikely we'll sell them around you again."

Of course, if you are worried or concerned about not making money, I can pay you a salary. One person will be assigned to each stall. The school will set up two stalls. If two of you are to manage one stall, that's fine too. It's up to you. But I will only pay you a base salary of twenty yuan per day per stall.

In addition, I'll give you a 3% commission on sales, and I'll specially deliver potato shreds and chili sauce to you every morning.

My requirement is that you must set up your stall in the morning and evening, unless the weather is extremely bad. You must make your supplier's phone number known to others. If you set up your stall all day on Saturdays and Sundays, your base salary will increase by five dollars. "All day" means setting up your stall during breakfast, lunch, and dinner times.

Zeng Kunpeng and the others looked at each other, unsure of what to do.

He Wenlin smiled and said, "You don't need to rush to make a decision. Go back and think about it, and give me your answer this afternoon."

Liu Yang: "We will indeed go back and discuss it."

He Wenlin then drove them back to school.

He Wenlin was in the car, and they didn't dare to discuss it.

Once they arrived at school and separated, the four of them started discussing things.

"Twenty yuan a day, that sounds pretty good," Liu Yang said. "The four of us work in pairs, and each of us gets a base salary of three hundred yuan a month. If we do well, four hundred yuan shouldn't be a problem. Setting up a stall on your own is risky, but this is risk-free and a sure thing. It's just hard work."

"I'm fine with anything, I have no objection, do whatever you say."

"I don't care, I'll listen to you."

Zeng Kunpeng: "Then we agree?"

"Okay, then I'll agree."

"I feel like I could earn more working for her than at the school cafeteria."

"I'll reply with my agreement this afternoon."

...

After the first period in the afternoon, Zeng Kunpeng said he agreed to do it.

He Wenlin was not surprised.

He Wenlin immediately contacted He Wenhua and told him about the situation and her plans.

Without hesitation, He Wenhua agreed to deliver 500 boxes of hand-pulled pancakes within three days.

Of course, others have to come too.

Besides street vendors, you can also contact university cafeterias to sell hand-pulled pancakes.

After setting up the stall here, we take photos and then take it to other places to promote it.

He Wenlin told He Wenhua to put the 500 boxes of goods he delivered into the cold storage of his cake processing factory first.

He Wenlin wanted to open a chain of cake shops in Shanghai, so she installed a cold storage facility when renovating the factory.

There's only one cake shop in Shanghai right now, so the cold storage is still empty. The 500 boxes of hand-pulled pancakes are neatly stacked and can still be temporarily stored.

He Wenlin's refrigerator, food cart, and advertising board were all ready. She also trained the four of them for a few days, and everything was in place.

At six o'clock in the morning on the 12th, the four of them had already set up their stall.

He Wenlin is now considered a prominent figure at the school.

The news that she was collaborating with Zeng Kunpeng and others had already spread throughout their department.

Later, Zeng Kunpeng and others deliberately promoted the Taiwanese specialty, hand-pulled pancakes, so business was pretty good on the first day of their stall.

Because they still had classes, they hurriedly packed up their stall at eight o'clock.

Because classes start at 8:15.

He Wenlin also continued to follow their situation.

After school in the afternoon, they went to set up their stall again. They were quite enthusiastic at the beginning.

Since the stall had already been set up in the morning, many students already knew about hand-pulled pancakes.

Business was even better in the afternoon.

He Wenlin originally thought that if business was bad and no one lined up, she would hire people to line up and make the stall popular.

This way, she can attract more attention and achieve her goal.

But there's absolutely no need for her to do that!

Because the queue has already started!

He Wenlin decided that there should be a consultation hotline available within a week!

He Wenlin took photos of the bustling scene and asked He Wenhua to take them with him when he went to promote the products.

...

I was so tired on the first day that I didn't want to get up early for two mornings starting on the second day.

So the four of them took turns going in the mornings.

They're all willing to go in the afternoon.

After setting up shop for four consecutive days, business got better and better.

The four of them also earned the nickname "Donghua Pancake Bro" at school.

The revenue over four days was quite good, a full 2,900 yuan!

They were filled with regret. If only they hadn't asked for a salary and had instead sourced the goods themselves, they would have earned even more!
