To be honest, Albert didn't have much impression of his Uncle Charlie. The number of times he had come to his house could be counted on two hands.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Charlie showed up at the Anderson's door driving an ordinary-looking car.
A few days ago, Charlie learned from Daisy that Albert liked books, so he bought him a few of the latest bestsellers as a gift, and Nia got a music box that looked very nice.
In fact, Charlie felt very ridiculous when he received a call from his sister Daisy asking him to talk to his nephew about this matter.
But he still came.
no way.
If I don't come, I won't be able to get the 20,000 pounds of start-up capital from Daisy.
Charlie had heard that his nephew was a genius several years ago, but the one in front of him was just an ordinary child holding a fat cat.
Even if he is really a genius, he is just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child after all. How could he know how to run a store
This is ridiculous.
When he just sat down, Charlie's eyes met Albert's. At that moment, he suddenly felt uncomfortable all over, as if he was seen through by the other party.
Charlie quickly looked away, not daring to look Albert in the eye again.
Like a child who made a mistake.
For a moment I didn't know what to say.
"Do you think bubble milk tea suits the British taste?" Albert lowered his eyes and stroked Tom's hair. "Is it delicious?"
"Well, of course it's delicious. Bubble milk tea should be quite suitable for our taste. At least I think it tastes good."
"How do you feel?" Albert suddenly knew why the other party's store went bankrupt.
Bubble tea is indeed very popular in many countries, including the UK, but I feel like what the hell.
Nia, who was quietly listening to their conversation, suddenly felt that Daisy was right. Her uncle Charlie really knew nothing about bubble milk tea.
The only thing he knew was that bubble milk tea tasted good and could sell well and make a lot of money.
In the following series of conversations, Albert was the one talking almost all the time, while Charlie was like a student listening quietly in class, which even gave them the illusion that their ages should be swapped to be more appropriate.
Albert didn't really know much about bubble tea, but he had drunk a lot of it and understood its operations, the problems that might be faced next, and the possibility of trying various types of pearls, milk teas, and fruit teas. He also made an estimate of its so-called final form, as well as the franchise chain store model.
Charlie was stunned by the theory that went beyond decades. As long as he was not a fool, he would be able to hear some brilliant business skills.
Charlie sadly discovered that he was not as good as a thirteen or fourteen year old child.
Not to mention Charlie, even Daisy and Herb were a little confused. Nia sat quietly on the side playing with Tom, and secretly observed the changes in Charlie's facial expression.
"You look down on Albert."
Of course Nia knew that many adults would not take children's words seriously, and this Uncle Charlie was the same, but he soon became speechless in front of Albert, just like a child listening to someone else's lecture, which made her want to laugh.
Her Albert is as awesome as ever.
By the time Albert finished speaking what he had prepared in advance, it was almost noon. After an hour and a half of continuous information bombardment and self-confidence blows, Charlie's mind was in a mess. He declined Daisy's invitation to have lunch, and finally took Albert's notes that Daisy stuffed into his hand and left in a daze.
"Do you think your Uncle Charlie will succeed?" Daisy asked after seeing Charlie off.
"I don't know, but I feel like Uncle Charlie doesn't have much business sense."
This is Albert's final evaluation of Charlie.
If Charlie was a business genius, after Albert proposed that theory and plan, his eyes would have lit up and he would have excitedly discussed it with Albert. He would not have sat there stupidly listening to him talk like Albert did, and even turned into a nodding weird in the end.
"I don't expect him to be a business genius," Daisy said. "As long as the store is profitable, that's enough. If Charlie can really make bubble milk tea a success, he can find someone to manage the company's affairs on his behalf."
Even if there is a loss, it won't be much. It mainly depends on how much energy he puts into this aspect.
"He needs to spend a lot of time and energy to improve it. With my level, the store will go bankrupt sooner or later." Albert scooped up a pearl and put it into his mouth, chewing it slowly.
Albert didn't really care what would happen to Uncle Charlie in the end. He had already told him a lot of advanced things and even gave him his notes.
If it can be used properly, it should be possible to quickly establish a brand, become the first bubble tea shop in the UK, and gain popularity in a short period of time.
In some ways, bubble tea is more popular than cola.
For example, French fries and fish nuggets for lunch with a cup of bubble tea.
Just as they were eating and chatting, the phone rang. Herb said that Charlie had a car accident on the road, and it seemed to be a rear-end collision, which made the whole family a little confused.
Finally, it was Herb who came over to help solve the problem.
A week later, Herb mysteriously announced that he would take everyone to London for dinner.
Originally, Albert and Nia thought they were going to a restaurant, but they were taken to the door of a bubble tea shop.
The speed at which Charlie opened the store was a little beyond his expectations. The bubble tea shop was opened in just a few days.
"It's not bad. Many people like bubble tea."
How to say it
British food is really weird, especially when Albert saw something strange like vegetable milk tea on the menu.
By the way, this store also sells hot dogs.
It doesn't look like a bubble tea shop, but more like a fast food restaurant selling hot dogs.
“Just eat this?”
Albert looked at the hot dog and bubble tea in front of him with resentment, and his face fell.
The taste of the milk tea was really average, only slightly better than the one Albert made himself.
"I think he still needs to work harder on milk tea. This level of quality is easy to imitate. If he can't form a brand advantage before the novelty wears off, this store will just be like that in the future."
After all, people will go wherever there is money to be made, and making bubble milk tea is not a difficult task. Albert believes that a bunch of bubble milk tea shops will pop up like mushrooms after a rain soon.
Without the exclusive monopoly status, sales will soon decline.
The result is self-evident.
