Chapter 383 Throwing Money
“For the purchase of dishes, tables and chairs, Lao Nu has already found several reliable merchants. In addition, he has also made arrangements for the purchase and hiring of waiters. Now I would like to ask Madam Xia to come and take a look at the shop and give her some opinions.”
Although Manager Fu manages all matters in an orderly manner and even has a good eye for decorations, he is still the first to do so. When it comes to doing business like a restaurant, Xia Mingyue is more willing to let Xia Mingyue check it, in case something looks good but is not practical.
There are specialties in the art industry, but Mr. Fu feels that it is still necessary to listen to the opinions of professionals.
Xia Mingyue did not make any excuses, so she took Zhuang Cui and Guanshi Fu out of the door and went to the shop.
The shop chosen by Manager Fu is on the most prosperous Dongcheng District Street in the entire Changzhou City, and the location is excellent.
The shop is three stories high. It was previously a teahouse business. The land is spacious and the overall layout is quite reasonable. Many places can be used directly without modification.
The screens, calligraphy and paintings previously used for decoration in the teahouse seem to be of good quality, and even the flower pots are lush and lush, making people feel happy.
"This shop is really good." Xia Mingyue nodded repeatedly, "The clothes everywhere look very new, and the doorways seem to have been repaired, which can save a lot of trouble."
"Yes." Manager Fu said with a smile on his face.
He thought so too.
“We just said we wanted to start a copper pot shabu-shabu business, and we are so lucky to find someone reselling such a good shop.” The more Xia Mingyue looked at this shop, the more suitable it seemed, and she couldn’t help but I sighed.
“Actually, the business of this teahouse was good before, and the owner didn’t plan to sell it.” Manager Fu chuckled, “It’s just that I couldn’t resist the price I offered, so the owner agreed to the matter. Listen, He said that we are in the business of shabu-shabu, and he also said that he must try it in the future. "
Xia Mingyue, "..."
Another money spender!
However, in many cases, what matters in doing business is vision and decisiveness. You should not pay too much attention to the temporary cost, so as to avoid losing opportunities.
Guanshi Fu has been working in the He family for a long time, so he has such ability and financial resources. Furthermore, he is very confident in the copper pot shabu-shabu business.
Then she must work with Manager Fu to start up the business of shabu-shabu in copper pots, and make it prosperous and lively to live up to this trust.
Xia Mingyue's heart sank, and she briefly summarized her opinions and suggestions after reading this circle, and discussed them one by one with Guan Fu in detail.
Details as large as the door sign and as small as the length of the chopsticks were discussed while the two of them wrote down all the key points and recorded them in a book to avoid missing them.
This discussion lasted for most of the day. When the sun went down and a large sunset glow formed in the western sky, Manager Fu finally spoke.
"It's already late today. Madam Xia has worked hard for most of the day, so she should take a rest. Let's take a look at the omissions in a few days."
People My ideas are limited, and I can't think of everything at once, and many things are always imagined to look like one thing, but when they are actually made, put on display or used, it's a completely different picture.
If you want to achieve the best results, you should not be impatient and impatient. You need to take your time and consider it repeatedly.
"That's fine." Xia Mingyue agreed with a smile, and went downstairs with Manager Fu.
Manager Fu raised his hand and called for someone to hitch a carriage to take Xia Mingyue back.
“No need to bother.” Xia Mingyue declined with a smile, “We have been sitting here for a long time today, and it is still daylight, so the two of us walked back slowly and took a stroll along the way. "After arriving in Changzhou Fucheng, she started directly to deal with Xia Ji's various businesses. Xia Mingyue didn't have much free time on weekdays.
Even if I went shopping on the street before, I mostly inspected stalls, conducted market research, etc., and rarely wandered around.
Now that the dog days are passing, the evening wind brings a bit of coolness, so it is very suitable for a walk.
Seeing Xia Mingyue's behavior, Manager Fu no longer persisted. He only gave her a gift and then went to do other things.
Xia Mingyue and Zhuang Cui were walking on the street together.
Cheung Chau Fucheng is lively, with many shops and stalls on the streets selling a wide variety of things.
First I went to a stall and bought a comb made of peach wood. I saw a child selling fresh lotus pods that had just been picked, so Xia Mingyue bought some and planned to go back and peel some fresh lotus seeds. eat.
Then I saw someone selling fresh edamame, fresh peanuts that had just been unearthed and not yet dried, and even fresh walnuts with green skin...
Xia Mingyue was so happy that she bought some of them all.
Because these things were heavy and inconvenient to hold, Xia Mingyue simply bought two new small bamboo baskets on the street and put all the things in them to make it easier to continue shopping.
While shopping, we passed by a bookstore.
Thinking that she had already read the words she brought from Jinqiu County and was currently in a state of book shortage, Xia Mingyue suddenly became interested and wanted to go in and make a good selection.
Before I stepped through the threshold, I saw the clerk in the bookstore pushing a person out, and said impatiently, "Let's go quickly. If you don't leave, the shopkeeper will probably say something unpleasant." ”
The person being pushed was a woman named Shen Shujun. She was dressed simply in commoner clothes, with gray hair, rough skin and obvious wrinkles. She was obviously weather-beaten and a little older.
"Please tell me, please, please let me talk to the shopkeeper. Please be accommodating." The woman begged, her voice urgent, and she revealed a youthfulness that did not match her face.
This sense of dissonance made both Xia Mingyue and Zhuang Cui couldn't help but stand still and take a closer look.
The bookstore clerk sighed, "It's not that I didn't say this, nor is it that the shopkeeper is unkind. It's just that you didn't say you were selling it, and there was no one to give it away for free. Yes, our shop is open for business, so we have to think about it for ourselves."
“I would also advise Mrs. Shen not to waste so much effort writing these unsold story books, but to write some story books that sell well. For example, a story book like "A Dream in the Boudoir" is quite popular. Welcome, Mrs. Shen, why not write about it?”
When Shen Shujun heard the words "A Dream in the Boudoir", the hand that was holding the waiter's sleeve immediately let go as if it were being touched by a cannon. She even pursed her lips and lowered her face. After a while, she said, "That way This is nothing more than deceiving others.”
Deceiving others?
But which storybook is not imagined by others?
What is the story of a talented man and a beautiful woman, a talented man and a beautiful woman, who are privately married for life, and their parents are opposed to it, but when the man is in high school, the woman's parents have to agree to the marriage? Isn't this nonsense?
