Upon hearing this, Mr. He sighed, "It's much worse than it was a few days ago."
A few days ago, they had another late-night snack order. Without He Xing and Li Bing colluding with each other, their turnover once exceeded two thousand!
Even without late-night snacks, the daily income is still around 1,600 to 1,700 yuan.
Including Peng Wei's orders tonight, the estimated turnover is only 1,500.
"But overall, today was pretty good, exceeding expectations," He Wenlin said. "If it weren't for the mistake over there that delayed delivery, we wouldn't have made over a thousand today. Anyway, everyone worked hard."
"We're alright, but no one works as hard as you." Grandma He could see that the shop was entirely supported by her granddaughter.
They get up earlier than the chickens and go to bed later than the dogs.
"I'm fine too. Grandma, you and my second brother just arrived today. I didn't even let you rest properly before you came to work."
"This little bit of work is nothing. It's much easier than farming." Grandma He said to Grandpa He, He Wenjun, and Lin Fei, "The three of you should learn from Linlin, especially you."
Grandma He turned her gaze to Grandpa He and said, "You are the head of the family. You can't let Linlin be so tired every day."
Mr. He glanced at He Wenlin: "What kind of head of the family am I? Mom, you don't know, your good granddaughter is afraid that I will swallow her money every day, and she doesn't respect me as her father at all! Tell me, is this how children should act? She is still so young, what's wrong with us letting her manage the money? Would we want her money?"
“My granddaughter is more shrewd than you.”
"Mom..." Mr. He wanted to say a few words in his defense.
Grandma He waved her hand and continued, "At least my granddaughter won't go off to play cards and neglect her responsibilities."
Mr. He was a little embarrassed: "That happened so long ago, just once..."
"Not even once! In short, she's more capable than you, her father. She's shrewd and calculating. She can manage her own money as she pleases, so you and Aizhen should worry less."
Mr. He panicked: "Mom, that's not a hundred or two hundred... that's several thousand yuan!"
"Who cares how much she spends? She won't squander it. Anyway, she's better than all of us, so we'll all listen to her."
Grandma He unconditionally trusts and supports He Wenlin.
He Wenlin hugged Grandma He and said sweetly, "Grandma, you're the best. My dad and mom don't trust me."
Mr. He said sternly, "We don't believe you? It's clearly you who doesn't believe me and your mother! Now you're the one playing the victim and bringing your grandma here to back you up!"
"Why are you shouting like that? Don't scare the guests outside," said Old Mrs. He. "You're just an apprentice, Linlin is the boss, of course the employees listen to the boss."
Upon hearing this, Mr. He became agitated: "Then I'm still her father!"
"Then I'm still your mother!"
Mr. He was speechless!
He Wenlin suppressed a laugh; as expected, it was Grandma who had to discipline him!
"In short, Linlin is amazing, so we'll listen to her." After saying that, Grandma He turned to He Wenjun and said, "Wenjun, you too, don't think that just because you're the older brother you can be disobedient. Don't take advantage of being Linlin's second brother to slack off and be lazy. If you slack off and be lazy, I'll buy you a ticket and send you back!"
"Grandma, I definitely won't. I'll learn from my boss's sister and try to make a lot of money as soon as possible to buy you gold!" He Wenjun's sweet words pleased the old lady.
He Wenlin counted out five hundred yuan from the money she received today: "Dad, could you please go through the trouble of buying a tricycle? We only have one tricycle at home, so it's not very convenient for deliveries. Use the rest of the money to buy you cigarettes."
While it's impossible to give Mr. He full financial control and the position of store manager, giving him a little opportunity to "line his own pocket" is still acceptable, after all, he's his own father.
"Grandma, you and your little brother should go back to your rented room to rest first. Shanshan, you should also go and rest. You've all had a long day," He Wenlin said. "I'll stay here and wait for these guests to leave."
After speaking, He Wenlin took out the stack of papers she had brought back earlier and began to sign them quickly.
"What did you buy this time?" Mr. He asked, his eyes widening as he peered closer. "A voucher?"
“I ordered several hundred of these sheets of paper. Since we don’t have a business license or an official seal yet, I wrote my name on them to prevent counterfeiting. In the future, the shirt factory can promote these vouchers. For example, if a customer buys ten boxed meal vouchers, we can give them one voucher worth 1.5 yuan…”
"Then aren't we at a loss? I think things are fine as they are now, so stop with all this nonsense."
Grandma He glared at Dad He: "Don't interrupt, listen to Linlin, she must have her reasons."
"Fine, fine, let her have her way." Mr. He was helpless, feeling that his words carried less and less weight in this family, and that he must be the most pitiful father!
"We sell the vouchers at around 10% off, which is essentially the same as giving our food a 10% discount. But it's more cost-effective than giving us a 10% discount, because people who buy the vouchers will definitely come and spend money here! Another point is that we can quickly recover our funds."
After He Wenlin explained it this way, everyone understood.
He Shan asked, "So from now on, we won't need to write receipts anymore, and we won't need to rely on receipts to pick up or receive meals, right?"
"No, this voucher is only valid for the shirt factory for now. Other factories will remain the same. We accept reservations, issue receipts, and customers can pick up their meals with the receipts. This way, we can better control waste. As for the shirt factory, the boss's wife is not allowing Peng Liang and the team leader to take on orders, so I came up with this idea. We'll sell it at about 10% off, and customers will definitely be willing to ride their bikes over to pick it up."
If we buy the goods but they don't use them, won't the coupons just sit in our hands?
