Chapter 234 Opening a shop and dividing the profits
After Dou Ning and the others returned, they brought in a new group of customers because the clothes looked so good.
This is also the case for many new customers who come to the store.
Su Heng goes to help out on weekends when she has nothing to do. Everyone in the family is busy, so Qiuqiu can only stay at her grandparents' house on weekends.
After being busy for a whole month, when Su Heng went to check the accounts at the end of the month, she was still shocked to find that the turnover exceeded 15,000.
I only knew that doing business could make money, but I didn't expect it to be so profitable.
No wonder everyone wants to do business.
Thinking of this, she quickly calculated the net profit, because the goods were purchased directly from the factory, the cost was very low.
All in all, the net profit is as high as more than 8,000!
"Lu Mingchuan, quickly ask big brother to come and split the money!"
"Okay, I'll go downstairs and call him."
Su Jing invested in this batch of goods, and they divided it proportionally. After deducting the more than one thousand given to Su Jing, there were still seven thousand left.
However, Su Jing said that the shop belonged to Su Heng, and he deducted a little rent for Su Heng.
The rent wasn't expensive, but he didn't want his sister to suffer.
The two employees we hired are still in the probation period, and their combined salary is only fifty. Even if they get commissions if they perform well in the future, it is nothing compared to the huge profits.
This is only the first month of opening!
Su Heng smiled as she counted the money and said, "There's another shop. What do you sell? I want to buy a few more shops. How about opening a big supermarket in the future?"
But they are too busy now and they still have to lead their employees, otherwise with only a few people they will not be able to handle everything.
Lu Mingchuan: "I'll go to Shanghai this month to purchase some goods and then inspect it."
People's purchasing power is not high nowadays, and the reason for choosing to sell clothes was because the market was good.
"Let's hire another cashier and accountant, otherwise it will be too busy." Su Heng suggested.
The two employees in the store have become more proficient in the business after being trained by Su Jing this month. Although their eloquence cannot match Su Jing's, it is enough for buying clothes.
Lu Mingchuan and Su Jing naturally had no objection.
"You should come back as soon as possible this time. We will go to Guangdong together in May."
Su Jing was a little confused: "What are you going there for?"
Su Heng picked out what she could say and said it.
"I got the news that there's going to be a big move over there this year. Brother, do you want to join us in a gamble?"
There is no sign of setting up a special economic zone there yet, which is a gamble for Su Jing.
But Su Heng wanted to help her elder brother. Although she believed that her elder brother could make success in business by himself, he was about to have a sister-in-law.
It’s impossible that I won’t be able to afford the bride price when the time comes to marry a wife.
Su Jing didn't hesitate and said directly: "I'll listen to you."
He was a brave man, and he had his sister's help along the way, so naturally he believed them.
"Okay, then you guys should go early and come back early."
The two agreed and went to purchase goods the next day.
There are many businesses nowadays, and many private merchants need to transport goods. This trip not only brings goods to their own stores, but also takes on many orders and earns a sum of shipping fees.
Because of the connections they had accumulated before, they also took orders from the Shanghai Stock Exchange, and their car was never idle when going back and forth.
It is much more convenient to take orders now than last year, and the shipping costs have also increased.
With the economic recovery, large truck transportation has officially become popular in this era of inconvenient transportation.
After Lu Mingchuan and his team went to purchase goods, Su Heng also took advantage of the weekend to apply for an interview for a finance position.
He is a high school graduate and has experience working in a factory.
Their store integrates cashier and finance. The girl is not very old and was attracted here purely by the high salary.
The probation period is thirty days, and the regularization period is fifty days.
She has only been working in the factory for twenty-five months.
Su Heng inspected the girl named Lin Xiaoran and hired her after confirming that she had solid basic skills and was an honest person.
From now on, Su Heng only needs to check the accounts once a month, and the pressure will be reduced a lot.
However, she still visits the store from time to time to prevent the employees from slacking off.
However, Su Jing’s two younger brothers are still reliable. After all, they can get commissions if the sales are good.
If the boss is generous, the employees will naturally work harder.
Su Heng was attracted by the prospects of this street, so she spent another four thousand to buy a shop. This shop was much more spacious. Although the price was more expensive than before, it did not increase much. It had two floors and a total area of almost three hundred square meters.
Because this place is close to the department store, Su Heng thinks that even if he can't open a supermarket, he can open a hot pot restaurant.
She hasn't seen any Sichuan or Chongqing hotpot restaurant yet.
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. Su Heng planned to ask someone to come over in advance to do the decoration.
The style of the house doesn't need to be changed drastically, but the windows facing the street must be enlarged, a large menu board must be hung on the wall, and the kitchen must also be enlarged.
And the lights must be bright.
After all this trouble, Su Heng became busy again.
When Lu Mingchuan and the others came back, the hot pot restaurant had been almost renovated.
After listening to Su Heng's plan, Lu Mingchuan asked, "What about the chef?"
There are no Sichuan and Chongqing hotpot restaurants here, but similarly, there are no wild Sichuan and Chongqing chefs for them to recruit.
Su Heng was silent for a moment, then pointed at herself uncertainly: "Me?"
Lu Mingchuan, Su Jing: ...
"What's with that look on your face? What kind of chef does a hot pot restaurant need?"
She thought that she knew how to cook the hot pot base, so all she had to do was hire someone to cook it according to her instructions and then hire some waiters.
But Lu Mingchuan shook his head: "It's not that simple. Chefs from different places have their own cooking styles. This is already fixed and difficult to change."
Su Heng doesn't have time to work in the kitchen every day. The chef he hired is not from Sichuan or Chongqing, so he may have his own habits when frying the base ingredients.
This is like asking a Huaiyang cuisine chef to learn Hunan cuisine; he will definitely not be able to do it well.
Su Heng was speechless, it seemed to be true.
Seeing that she rarely acted silly, Lu Mingchuan was a little amused: "I'll go ask where there are chefs from Sichuan and Chongqing."
If you want to open a restaurant, a good chef is essential.
Su Heng could only nod: "If all else fails, let's go to Sichuan and Chongqing."
Anyway, the store is mine, so there is no rush to keep it.
But in the end, it was Yao Wenyin who helped them get it done.
She brought the chef to the restaurant to try the dishes. Chef Hao thought Su Heng was going to open a Sichuan restaurant, but when he heard it was a hot pot restaurant, he immediately felt that it was a waste of his talent and was a little unhappy.
But when I heard the salary Su Heng offered, it was fifty yuan a month, and there would be commissions if the work was good.
He immediately smiled amiably again, "Hot pot, huh? No problem. I'll go fry some for you guys to try. Also, how about some braised food? I mean, there are so many different ways to cook hot pot."
Seeing how quickly his expression changed, Su Heng couldn't help but sigh at the charm of money.
But this chef is indeed reliable. You can tell he is an expert when you hear the dishes he describes.
So I asked him to pick out some of the tasks that were less time-consuming.
While waiting for the food, she took Yao Wenyin for a walk around the store and asked, "Grandma, what do you think of the layout of my store?"
Yao Wenyin nodded: "It's quite good, clean and bright."
Su Heng's store does not follow the retro primitive style that is popular in later generations. She specially asked someone to lay light-colored floor tiles.
The tables, chairs and lighting fixtures are also quite exquisite, and the tables are specially customized.
The style of the entire store is more inclined to elegant log style.
After all, the price of hot pot is still very expensive now, so people who come here will naturally be picky about the environment.
Su Heng didn't like the primitive decoration style of later generations. Some walls were not painted at all, and the ground was also original cement. If a little soup was spilled on it, it could not be mopped clean at all, and over time it turned into black dirt.
The most important thing is that the dining area should be clean and tidy.
