Chapter 77: Opening a store in partnership?
It takes four hours to drive from Zhoucheng to Lanshan City.
Cui Changjia set off from Zhoucheng at about 10 o'clock, and it was already after 2 o'clock in the afternoon when he arrived in Lanshan City.
As he was approaching Lanshan City, Cui Changjia received a call from Chang Ying.
"Jiajia, are you in the factory?"
"No, I'm on my way to Lanshan City."
"Is it convenient? I want to tell you something."
"It's just me, you can just tell me."
“Didn’t I find a baker to teach me how to make bread? He knew that I had the idea of opening a bakery and said he wanted to open a bakery with me. I will open a shop He provides the technology, and we share the profit half, do you think that’s okay?”
Chang Ying worked as a waitress in a bakery, and after she became familiar with a baker in the store, they She proposed to give the baker five hundred yuan a month and let him teach her how to make bread in his spare time. In this way, Chang Ying's time could be used effectively.
Chang Ying still has little social experience, so don't even think about this kind of thing, just refuse it.
But Cui Changjia did not directly let Chang Ying refuse, but asked, "Why does the baker want to open a shop with you? His salary in the bakery should be quite high. It is quite risky to open a shop by yourself. "
"Cui Changjia, I find you are so powerful now, what's the matter? I found love right away. The baker had a quarrel with the store manager yesterday. The quarrel was pretty fierce anyway, and he didn’t want to work anymore. But he wouldn’t have such a high salary elsewhere, and he knew I had the idea of opening a store. , so you want to partner with me.”
That’s right, it’s only right if there’s a reason.
Cui Changjia said, "We do business on our own because we have a say. If we partner with others, we will be very passive. Suppose you two quarrel one day and he leaves, what will you do?"< br>
"Yeah, I'm very confused too. What I heard from his words was that if I didn't agree to what he said, he would tell the store manager that I was secretly learning to make bread while I was at work."
"Then there's no need to worry about it. He threatened you before anything happened. Chang Ying, you want to make money in business, not to cause trouble for yourself. Tell him clearly that you don't want to do partnership business. Nothing to be embarrassed about.”
"But what if I don't agree to what he said and he talks nonsense?"
"It's up to him. If this bakery doesn't work, we'll find another one. Anyway, you've learned a lot now. Something is gone. Let’s find another one. Wouldn’t it be better to go directly to the kitchen as an apprentice?”
“Yes,” Chang Ying was happy, “You are still smart, I will go and talk to him now, I love you, but you are still afraid of him? No. ”
Cui Changjia was afraid that the baker was too arrogant, so he persuaded Chang Ying and said, "I think this person is quite arrogant, so you must stick to your own principles and put your own interests first. After all, we open a store to be the master of our own business." , can live a comfortable life. "
"If there is another half-boss, there will definitely be trouble later if you don't say it yourself. Think about how good you will be if you use half of your profits to hire a baker. Teacher?”
“Well, Changjia , I knew it was right to call you. He called me in the middle of the night last night to ask if I had thought about it. After he came this morning, he chased me and asked. It was so annoying that I will tell him now. By the way, there was some bread in the store that was not sold out yesterday. I will get off work in the afternoon. Send it to Auntie.”
“It’s okay if it’s not sold out. Just forget it if you pay for it.”
“Don’t worry, it’s not sold out. Drive slower and eat well. Live well and don’t be reluctant to spend money.”
"I got it, little bastard!"
After hanging up the phone, Cui Changjia raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Look, it's so good to have friends. If you don't know what to do, you can call to discuss it. You don't have to beat around the bush when you talk. You can say whatever you want." In other words, there is no burden at all!
Cui Changjia is considered knowledgeable, but she was still shocked after arriving at the wholesale market in Lanshan City.
As soon as I entered the market, I was mesmerized by the small shops one after another. I couldn’t even see them at a glance. They included clothes, shoes and hats, accessories, toiletries, bedding, and various daily necessities... Every A small shop was so full of goods that no one could even squeeze in. The entire wholesale market is in a busy state, and people can be seen hurriedly walking along with small carts everywhere in the passage.
When I got here, I realized where so many factories and so many things produced had gone.
The things Cui Changjia wanted to sell were daily necessities. She found the area for daily necessities and did not rush to find the merchant. Instead, she found a staircase and rested for a while. She came with samples. Yes, she was out of breath climbing the stairs.
After sitting on the stairs for a while, she walked towards a shop called "Xia Jie Trading Company". She just took a look and saw that this shop sells household items.
“What do you need?” As soon as she walked to the door of the shop, a clerk wearing a brown apron came to greet her.
“I want to talk to your boss about some business.”
"Sister Xia!" the clerk shouted toward the inside. Seeing no one responded, she shouted again, "Sister Xia?"
In the deepest part of the shop, there was a little girl with short hair and an apron. The fat woman stretched out her head and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Someone is here to sell it."
"What is it?" Sister Xia shouted.
Cui Changjia quickly said to the clerk, "I'll go over and talk to you myself. You can get busy."
Sister Xia's store mainly sells household items, such as washbasin racks, matza stools, oil pots for the kitchen, storage racks, etc...
Her store is also very large. Cui Changjia stood at the door and walked in. Looking inside, I can feel that it is about ten meters deep. There are four rows of shelves in the seven or eight meter wide space, and the shelves are full of samples.
"Sister Xia." Cui Changjia walked over and greeted the fat boss.
The boss was stocking the shelves, which were spice boxes. She said while busy, "What are you selling?"
"If you're not busy, I'll help you stock the goods. It’s the same when you read it after coding.”
Cui Changjia said and stretched out his hand to help. There were many layers of spice boxes in the big carton, and there were probably hundreds of them. With Cui Changjia's help, it took a long time to finish sorting them.
Those who engage in wholesale business all have warehouses, but their shops are also warehouses.
Anyone who comes to ask for goods always takes it from the shop first. If there is not enough in the shop, they go to the warehouse.
As soon as Sister Xia finished her work, someone came over to ask for goods. Cui Changjia secretly looked at his watch. It was already past four o'clock, and the wholesale market would close before five o'clock.
Fortunately, Sister Xia arranged for the clerk to pick up the goods.
Sister Xia casually wiped her hands with a towel and Cui Changjia said, "Come, take a look at your things."
Cui Changjia hurriedly unfolded the samples he brought over in the narrow space to show her, a large folded table, a small folding table.
