The Goddess is a Little Pitiful, I Invested in Her! - Chapter 64
Chapter 64: Mr. Chen: I Don’t Like Milk Tea!
As soon as the shop door opened, people outside rushed in.
The service staff, including Xiaoyu, were a bit flustered.
They already lacked experience, and now with more people, they all panicked.
At that moment, Lin Lin, the most experienced supervisor, stepped forward.
Qi Yun recruited Lin from another milk tea shop. He and Lian Qingxue went to another milk tea shop to buy milk tea.
They saw that the manager of that shop, Lin Lin, was very enthusiastic and attentive.
So they took the opportunity to poach the shop manager……
From the position of shop manager to the supervisor of the service staff, Lin Lin’s rank seemed to have been lowered.
However, Qi Yun explained his persuasion towards Lian Qingxue to Lin Lin, and she reluctantly agreed to come.
Of course, Qi Yun also paid her generously. Although she was just a tiny supervisor, Lin Lin’s income now was even higher than before.
The fact proved that Qi Yun’s money was well spent.
Lin Lin was not flustered. She divided Xiaoyu and the others into three groups, with one group welcoming customers at the entrance and the other two groups stationed at the milk tea area and dessert area for the reception.
Xiaoyu and the others didn’t know what to do at first, but they quickly became proficient with Lin Lin’s instructions.
……
Although the shop was crowded, there weren’t many customers buying milk tea.
The main reason was that Snow Tea’s milk tea was too expensive. Because they used fresh milk and tea leaves, even though Lian Qingxue had already reduced the profit margin, the pricing of Snow Tea’s milk tea was still over ten yuan, mostly around thirteen yuan.
In contrast, most of the milk tea in the city was around ten yuan, with many options priced at six or eight yuan. The price difference was at least five yuan.
Qi Yun saw that many customers attracted by the shop’s decoration shook their heads and walked out after seeing the menu.
This was especially true for some older customers. They came just to watch the excitement and didn’t drink milk tea, to begin with. Now, after seeing the prices, they ran even faster.
Qi Yun estimated that out of every five customers entering the shop, only one person would place an order.
“Phew……” Qi Yun let out a sigh of relief.
That was fortunate!
He genuinely believed this shop would be profitable!
Now it appeared that he was bound to suffer losses!
Not to mention the rent for Snow Tea.
Considering the cost of utilities, raw materials, and labor, the minimum weekly cost was over twenty thousand.
In this business…… losing fifty thousand yuan a month was no problem!
Thinking like this, Qi Yun felt he could earn two hundred thousand yuan a month.
Although it was not a lot, Qi Yun felt he had found the path to wealth!
“Oh? The shop opened so quickly?”
Just as Qi Yun was secretly calculating and Lian Qingxue was worried, Mr. Xu rushed in.
He looked at the shop’s decoration and said, “Not bad, Qi Yun, you have this ability!”
Well, the appearance of this milk tea shop made Mr. Xu feel suddenly artistic.
It suited his temperament!
“The teacher is here?” Qi Yun saw Mr. Xu and warmly asked someone to make a cup of milk tea for him.
“Teacher, this is the flavor we researched ourselves. Try it!”
When they were looking for a shop, Mr. Xu helped a lot.
In Qi Yun’s heart, Mr. Xu also greatly contributed to his losses!
He couldn’t mistreat him!
“I don’t want to drink it! I don’t drink milk tea!”
Mr. Xu repeatedly waved his hand, but Qi Yun still placed the milk tea beside him.
“Teacher, just have a taste and give some feedback!” Qi Yun persuaded.
Mr. Xu looked troubled: “This is something girls like. Why would a grown man like me drink it?”
He picked up the cup and took a sip from the straw as he spoke.
Qi Yun saw that Mr. Xu suddenly fell silent and took a while before saying, “Not bad, quite sweet. It’s just too girly!”
Qi Yun: “…”
Mr. Xu continued, “Let me tell you, I don’t like sweet things. Only young kids like you like them!”
Ok, I knew you wouldn’t have anything good to say!
Mr. Xu took a sip, looking like he didn’t enjoy it and didn’t drink anymore.
He didn’t stay long, seeing that Qi Yun and the others were busy. He took the milk tea and prepared to leave.
“How much is it?”
“Consider it my treat!” Qi Yun said.
“No! I’m an adult. How can I accept something meant for children?”
Mr. Xu insisted on paying.
He slipped out of the milk tea shop.
Qi Yun didn’t see that Mr. Xu, carrying the milk tea, didn’t go anywhere but entered a high school.
It was the weekend, and the high school had no students or many teachers, making it deserted.
He looked left and right, and when he saw no one around, he took another sip of the milk tea.
After finishing it, he licked his lips.
“You know what? This milk tea is quite tasty!”
Mr. Xu felt like he had opened the door to a new world!
He had never liked milk tea before. He thought it was just something to trick children, just sweetened water!
But the milk tea from Qi Yun’s shop was different. The fragrance of milk blended with the tea leaves.
Mr. Xu suddenly found himself liking it!
However…… it felt a little embarrassing for a man in his fifties to hold a cup of milk tea.
But it didn’t matter!
There was no one around! He was enjoying it to the fullest!
Sip, sip, sip!
“Old Xu, what are you eating next to the trash can? It smells so good?”
A voice came from behind him. It was Mr. Chen from Class 2. He stood behind Mr. Xu, curiously leaning over to see what he was doing.
Mr. Xu…… Mr. Xu got nervous and exerted some force on his hand.
Poof!
A pearl popped out of the straw and shot onto Mr. Chen’s face.
“Believe me. It was not intentional?”
“Believe my ass! You’ve always disliked me! I knew it a long time ago!”
“Hmm? What kind of milk tea is this? It’s quite sweet!”
Mr. Chen licked the corner of his mouth, looking a bit puzzled.
