"Hiss!" Zhou Zheng gasped, speechless for a long time.
"No, is your leg that painful? I'm showing you the sales figures, why are you dawdling like that?"
Liu Hua walked over with her aching legs and immediately covered her mouth when she saw the number.
"How could this be? How could there be so many!"
Seeing the two looking like they'd seen a ghost, the employees all gathered around.
"Nearly 1,000 cups, 989 cups of milk tea, and that's all in just one afternoon!"
Zhou Zheng finally spoke up. Although the number sounded incredible, the data on the cashier was there for all to see. Even if there was a slight error, it wouldn't be too far off.
Yelena, standing to the side, widened her eyes upon hearing this number. She had visited numerous restaurants across the country and had seen all sorts of milk tea shops.
It's worth noting that even in the heart of a first-tier city, a milk tea shop in a shopping mall during peak season can only generate a daily turnover of around six or seven hundred cups.
Chen Luo's milk tea shop has already reached nearly a thousand cups in just half a day.
Furthermore, thinking deeper, at least 500 people came to the store to buy milk tea today and shared the post. At least half of these people are repeat customers, plus the advertising effect of sharing.
This means the milk tea shop can guarantee at least 500 cups of sales per day, based on an average profit of 6 yuan per cup.
That means a profit of at least 3,000 yuan per day, which is about 100,000 yuan in net profit per month, and a million yuan per year!
Keep in mind that this is 2013. A normal milk tea shop would be considered very good if it could make a net profit of 10,000 yuan per month.
Chen Luo's store makes the equivalent of someone else's annual profit in a month. It can be said that Chen Luo's business acumen and operational skills have completely surpassed 99% of people in the same industry.
Yelena glanced at Chen Luo, who was casually drinking a glass of water, his face expressionless, his eyes sparkling with confidence.
"This kid didn't seem too surprised by such amazing sales figures. This shows that he is very confident in his business strategy and has great ambition and vision."
In fact, Yelena's intuition was correct. This milk tea shop was the first step in Chen Luo's plan, so he had made a very thorough plan and had a basic estimate of the first day's revenue.
With his past life's experience and knowledge, he wouldn't be so smug about such a small gain.
Yelena looked at Chen Luo with a gaze full of curiosity and aggression.
Such a promising talent has grown to this level without much nurturing or hardship.
If someone could become a member of my Ye family and be properly trained, who knows, another incredibly wealthy merchant might emerge in the country.
While Yelena was deep in thought, Chen Luo stepped out from behind the counter and approached a maid clerk holding a video camera.
The shop assistant is Liu Hua's roommate, Zhang Meng, who is also a photography enthusiast for many years.
"Zhang Meng, how did the filming go today?"
"Boss, the multi-camera filming for today's store opening is all done. After editing, it can be uploaded to Bilibili, Tudou, and other websites."
"Okay, please get started editing tonight and try to upload it to various websites tomorrow. Remember, make sure to focus the promotion on Liu Hua. Don't worry, I'll pay you 200 yuan a day for editing and managing the account."
"Thank you, boss!"
Zhang Meng almost jumped for joy, considering that her monthly living expenses were only 800 yuan, and her parents combined only earned 5,000 yuan a month.
My boss offered me, a part-time video editor, a monthly salary of six thousand yuan, which is quite generous.
Seeing Zhang Meng's happy expression, Chen Luo couldn't help but feel relieved. Zhang Meng was very talented in editing and account management. With more training, she could be of great use in the future.
In addition, her family background is average, she is currently a freshman in college, and she also has a need to purchase photography equipment.
If you provide such people with sufficient salary and opportunities for growth, they will be willing to work for you wholeheartedly in the future.
The milk tea shop has now successfully opened. Although the Magnesium Group project is also progressing, his main focus remains on building his ACG (Anime, Comics, and Games) business empire.
Therefore, the second step is to start managing your personal IP simultaneously.
"Slap! Slap!"
Chen Luo clapped his hands, and everyone immediately quieted down and turned to look at him.
"Alright! Everyone go back and rest for a bit. Tonight at 9:30, we're going to the Yipin Seafood Restaurant next door for a good meal! Seafood and drinks are all you can eat, so go all out!"
"Yay! Long live the boss!"
Everyone started cleaning up the store, eagerly anticipating tonight's celebration banquet.
Yelena stood up, glanced at Chen Luo, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.
"Okay, congratulations, you've successfully caught my attention."
"It's 9:30 tonight, right? I'll bump into him then, and it won't be a coincidence."
Yelena slowly walked out of the milk tea shop, glanced at the shop's sign, and got into a BMW without looking back.
An hour later, only Chen Luo and Liu Hua remained in the milk tea shop.
"Phew! Brother Luo, I'm exhausted today. You'd better make me something good to eat tonight."
Liu Hua changed back into her blue JK skirt, rubbing her aching legs as she complained to Chen Luo, who was doing accounting with his back to her.
"Don't worry, even if others suffer a loss, you won't!"
"You love hairy crabs the most, right? I've reserved ten hairy crabs for tonight, they're all yours!"
"Yay! Long live Brother Luo!"
Overwhelmed with excitement, Liu Hua rushed forward to hug Chen Luo, just like when Chen Luo gave her delicious treats when she was a child, expressing her joy in this way.
At this moment, Chen Luo quickly turned around, stretched out his hands to stop Liu Hua from rushing forward, and tapped her forehead with his finger.
"You're a grown woman now, not a child anymore. You can't be so impulsive, or how will you find a boyfriend in the future? Hurry up and get ready, we're going to a seafood restaurant."
After speaking, Chen Luo turned his head back to continue organizing the ledgers. Liu Hua hadn't even lowered her outstretched hands when she felt a lump in her throat and a pang of sorrow in her heart.
Yes, it's not like when I was a child anymore. Now I can't even hug Brother Luo anymore. He's no longer my Brother Luo.
Slowly lowering her hands, Liu Hua looked around every corner of the shop.
Perhaps this shop will be the only place where Luo-gege and I are connected from now on, so I must take good care of it.
After finishing organizing the ledgers, Chen Luo took out his phone and opened Wen Wan's chat window.
[Wan'er, are you back? We're having supper at Yipin Seafood Restaurant at 9:30 tonight. Remember to come if you're done with your work!]
[I'm basically done. I'll head back soon, arriving around 10 PM. Remember, no other girl can sit in the seat to your right.]
Absolutely, the place in my heart and the place beside me can only be you.
Chen Luo smiled and put away his phone, then put the ledger in the drawer.
"Come on, Liuhua, let's go eat hairy crabs!"
