Su Yan returned to school around nine o'clock.
Deng Ziyi has stopped setting up a stall at the entrance. They should all be back in their dorms by now, right?
After thinking for a moment, she decided to go back to her apartment for acupuncture.
I never expected that Deng Ziyi and the others would still be busy in the apartment!
Inside the house, Bai Meng and the other two were still baking egg tart crusts.
Su Yan walked in and said, "Why aren't you guys back in your dorms so late? There's a limit to how much money you can make!"
The three were very happy to see her return.
Deng Ziyi exclaimed and rushed forward to hug her, saying happily, "You're finally back!"
Bai Meng explained, "We're out of egg tart shells, so we need to make more tonight, otherwise we won't have enough for tomorrow."
Su Yan looked at the three of them. They looked a little tired, but their eyes were bright, and they seemed full of energy.
"Looks like business is good today, otherwise why are you three working so hard?"
Chen Ting quickly replied, "It's more than just good. Our egg tarts are cheap and taste great. Some customers even come back to buy a second serving after finishing theirs. I haven't stopped all day."
“Me too!” Deng Ziyi said pitifully, “My legs are about to break from climbing. There were still many customers when I closed up shop. If we hadn’t run out of egg tart shells and had a curfew, I probably could have sold until 10 o’clock.”
"Thank you for your hard work."
Just as Su Yan finished speaking, Wen Liangce walked over from the next room. Upon seeing her, he said, "I thought I misheard. I didn't expect it really was you back. Hurry up and get your acupuncture done. The professor just called to ask me about it."
Su Yan responded and obediently walked to the sofa and lay down.
Deng Ziyi and the others had seen Su Yan perform acupuncture, but they still felt a little ashamed.
After all, the entire back is exposed, and the person receiving acupuncture is of the opposite sex.
However, Wen Liangce's clear and upright gaze, and his treatment of Su Yan as if she were an ordinary patient, made them feel that their thinking was narrow-minded.
Wen Liangce was giving Su Yan acupuncture while they were making egg tart crusts.
While it was baking, Bai Meng sat down next to Su Yan and said, "Yan, should we buy another oven? One oven isn't enough."
After Su Yan left, she couldn't manage everything on her own.
The oven's output is too low. One minute she has to bake egg tarts, the next she has to make egg tart crusts. Deng Ziyi and Chen Ting are always urging her on. It's so tiring.
Su Yan thought for a moment.
Selling egg tarts is just a trial operation; we can't keep selling only this one thing. Even if customers love it, they'll get tired of it eventually. We'll definitely need to develop new products later, and one oven won't be enough.
As long as the food tastes good and the price is right, their stalls should do well.
"Then let's buy another oven," Su Yan said. "Assistant Wen, I'm sorry to trouble you again."
Wen Liangce said helplessly, "I'm just idling around anyway. Find me something to do to pass the time. It's no trouble at all."
"By the way, do you know anything about the shops around our school? How much would it cost to rent a 40-50 square meter shop?"
Upon hearing this question, Deng Ziyi and Chen Ting, who were busy with their work, stopped what they were doing and listened attentively.
Wen Liangce pondered for a moment before saying, "Baiyun District's economy isn't very developed. Buying it would probably cost a little over 200,000 yuan, and the rent would be a little over 100 yuan a month. After all, it's near a school, a place with a lot of foot traffic, so it's more than ten yuan more expensive than other places."
Bai Meng and the others gasped, all stunned by the number.
"Two hundred thousand?" Chen Ting looked like the sky had fallen. "How many egg tarts would we have to sell to earn that much money?"
They suddenly realized that the idea of taking over a shop was so far away.
Even Deng Ziyi, who comes from a well-off family, felt it was too expensive.
Her family is in business, but 200,000 is not a small amount for them.
"Are you two crazy? Who said we only sell egg tarts?" Su Yan said with amusement, "It's okay if we can't afford a shop right now. We can start selling when we've made enough money. If our dessert stall has a total capital of four thousand yuan after this month, then we'll rent a shop near the school."
"Really?" Bai Meng asked uncertainly.
Deng Ziyi and Chen Ting also looked at Su Yan with anticipation.
Su Yan nodded. "The apartment building is too high up. First, it's inconvenient, and residents might complain after a while. Second, the place is small, and it's too much trouble for you to run around. So, you should rent a shop in advance. As long as you don't mind spending the money."
Upon hearing this, the three exchanged glances and said in unison, "Let's rent it!"
Renting a shop space can be considered as achieving one of my goals.
Their next goal is to buy the store!
With this goal in mind, the three of them were even more motivated!
Since the three of them needed to get back to their dorm before curfew, Su Yan told them to go back first and left the egg tart crusts to her.
After the needles were removed, she got up and went to the kitchen to get busy, while dialing Jiang Jingxing's office number.
The other end answered quickly, surprised, "How did you know I was still in the office?"
“I’ve been back for so long and you haven’t called me, which means you’re waiting for my call,” Su Yan said while kneading dough. “Besides, I saw a few documents on your desk this afternoon, so I figured you probably took care of them while waiting for my call.”
These words struck a chord with Jiang Jingxing, who asked, "Is Ayan a tapeworm in my stomach?"
No, I'm a worm in your stomach!
"Moths? Does that mean you know all the bad thoughts I have in my heart?"
Su Yan: "..." Sometimes she really didn't want to be a master of instant understanding!
She blushed and said, "Be serious."
Jiang Jingxing sighed, his voice full of grievance, "I have to be serious all day long in the team, and when I talk to my girlfriend on the phone, she won't let me say anything inappropriate. It's so hard for me."
Su Yan couldn't help but chuckle. Even through the phone, she could imagine the man's expression at that moment. She said, "Alright, alright, tell me, who can stop you?"
Where are you now? What are you doing?
"I'm at the apartment. I'm making egg tart crusts after my acupuncture session. We don't have enough egg tart crusts today. Bai Meng and the others are exhausted."
"Business is good?"
"Of course it's good!" she said proudly. "You don't even know whose skills they have! Today, we had a lot of repeat customers buying egg tarts. I've already decided that once I earn four thousand yuan this month, I'll rent a shop near the school. Then I'll have another shop, and I can collect dividends from several shops at the end of each year. Don't you think I'm amazing?"
Don't let her current lack of money fool you; by the end of the year, her wallet is fuller than anyone else's!
Casting a wide net is tiring, but it also has its advantages.
"Yeah, my girlfriend is amazing. I'll be relying on her for my livelihood from now on."
Su Yan cleared her throat and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Xingzi, you're guaranteed to have good food if you follow me!"
After saying that, they both laughed.
Su Yan thought this was great; Jiang Jingxing was willing to play along with her antics and wasn't chauvinistic.
Some men feel ashamed when a woman is more capable than them, and then try all sorts of ways to manipulate her.
She felt that Jiang Jingxing had none of the bad habits or common flaws of men.
