Zhou Sui naturally had to use both kindness and severity. She clearly explained the store's rules and even drafted a contract for everyone to sign, which included each person's job duties and salary.
"I'm not a stingy person. The salary in the contract is your guaranteed minimum salary. I will give extra bonuses to those who perform well each month. As for how much the bonus will be, that's yet to be determined."
Everyone couldn't help but show their delight upon hearing this. The salary was already quite good, and with the bonus, they were bound to work even harder.
After finishing her routine remarks, Zhou Sui called Zhou Meimei to her side and formally introduced her to everyone.
"This is our store assistant. If I'm not in the store, you can ask her if you don't understand something or are unsure about something."
Zhou Sui had already discussed the position of store assistant with Zhou Meimei, and she must have made some preparations herself. Even though she stuttered a bit when speaking in front of everyone, she still managed to finish her speech smoothly.
"Very well, I've said everything I needed to say. Now, everyone, put on your work clothes and get to work."
Zhou Sui had previously ordered custom-made uniforms for the store, two for each person to alternate wearing.
Uniform attire helps guests distinguish themselves and makes the overall impression much better.
In addition to keeping the store tidy and clean, Zhou Sui has arranged training for everyone.
Although the current customer base is mainly college students, Zhou Sui also hopes that her team can be professional.
After a period of preparation, the city's first Zhouji Snack Shop is finally about to open.
The Zhou family naturally gave their full support. Apart from Zhou Yu and Zhou Xu, who were still in school, everyone else came. Even Zhang Cui's clothing store didn't open for business.
Zhou Sui naturally understood her family's good intentions, and she did not refuse.
After setting off the firecrackers, Zhou Sui had someone hand out flyers at the school gate. Students still enter and exit through the main gate, and since it was the first day of school, there was a constant stream of people at the gate.
The leaflet featured pictures and text describing the products of Zhou's Snack Shop, and highlighted one sentence in particular.
"For the first three days after opening, customers can receive a 10% discount when they bring this flyer into the store."
New stores usually offer various discounts. Zhou Sui's snack shop is affordable for most college students, and the food is novel. Now that it's discounted, some students are already asking about it at the school gate.
Zhou Sui and the rest of the people were already prepared in the store. She could faintly hear the voices of students talking in the schoolyard behind the store.
The people inside the shop kept looking outside. It was almost 10:30, and there was no one in the shop. Several merchants on the street had come to check several times.
They probably just want to see Zhou's snacks become a laughing stock.
Zhou Dayong paced back and forth at the door with his hands behind his back, his eyes glancing every now and then toward the back door not far away.
"They're here! They're here!" He shouted excitedly into the store as he saw students carrying flyers walking towards them.
The crowd, who had been eagerly anticipating the arrival of the man, immediately perked up and began to perform their respective duties as soon as he entered.
As lunchtime approached, more and more people came to the store.
Instead of immediately ordering the people handing out flyers to come back, Zhou Sui sent two other people to replace them.
It seems she intends to hand out flyers to students non-stop all day long.
Zhou Meimei approached her with a question: "Although these students handed us the flyers when they came to eat, if they go to the door to get another flyer, wouldn't they have to get a discount next time they come?"
Zhou Meimei had just overheard the students discussing this matter.
"It's alright, I'll have them hand out flyers at the school gate and in the vicinity for the next three days without stopping."
"If someone comes to eat here with a flyer for three consecutive days, it means they really appreciate our food."
"These three days are for us to promote our store extensively, let more people know about our store, and still have people willing to come to our store when there are no discounts."
There aren't many shops on the back street now, unlike the cluster of shops in front of the street. This is the only way she can attract more customers to her shop.
"I'm afraid some people will only be interested in the 10% discount and won't want to come back after three days." Gao Meimei is also a consumer, so she's probably thinking of taking advantage of the deal first and figuring out what happens later.
"It's alright. There are so many students in the university town. If two or three out of ten are like that, it won't affect us much."
Nowadays, people's living standards have improved, and her snacks are affordable, so she doesn't have to worry about finding customers.
After distributing flyers for three consecutive days, Zhou Sui finally withdrew the people outside, and the rest of the Zhou family also returned home.
Zhou Sui worked at the store for three days, and finally on the fourth day she could sleep in and get some rest.
She rented an apartment in the residential area opposite the shop. From her floor, she could see the back street of the school, but unfortunately, the wall was still there, so she couldn't see the snack shop at a glance.
After stretching, Zhou Sui went back to the bathroom to wash up, put on a plain coat and went out. She bumped into someone as soon as she stepped out of the community.
"Ouch, don't you have eyes?" Zhou Sui was the one who was bumped, but she cursed as soon as she was bumped.
Zhou Sui frowned and looked over. It was a thin face—Chen Zongyue's mother!
This face is just as harsh as it was in my past life, looking at me with disdain.
This time, perhaps because she was dressed well, there was no obvious disdain on her face.
