Not far away is his family's new hot pot restaurant, which is ready for everything except opening.
Through the glass window, I saw my dad beaming inside, busy with several employees.
Chen Chuan reckoned that the business of this new store would not be too bad, because the venue is large, 400 square meters, and the decoration is good, costing 2 million. In addition, King Street has a good location, surrounded by CBD, University Town, and other pedestrian streets, with a lot of traffic. Moreover, the parents have been operating for many years and have accumulated many old customers.
The two are in business, adhering to the principle of small profits but quick turnover, and the ingredients used are all high-quality, and the price is not expensive. Now that the shotgun is changed, and new and old customers come to take care of it together, it makes no sense not to be popular.
Both of them are in their forties, in their prime of life, and their father is more restrained, a contented man.
But my mother, Zhang Xiangyun, is in a hurry. If the business is booming, her inner ambition will grow like a burning grassland, and she may think about continuing to expand, expand the store, and expand operations until the branches are all over the place. There is nothing wrong with such a personality. Anyway, people are alive and always move forward. Money brings power, and power brings money. The two desires are intertwined. People will be pushed forward and their appetite will grow.
He himself is no exception.
But now he also has the capital to support his parents to achieve and surpass.
As for appetite, he himself couldn't tell whether it was big or small. Anyway, I am very satisfied with the current life, luxury cars, mansions, beauties, food, wine, good friends, decent clothes, expensive watches, healthy body, friendship with relatives and friends, respect from employees, occasional playing the piano, harvest A round of applause or flowers. Or at the invitation of a freshman girl like Wang Xiaoqing, go to the girls' dormitory to teach the younger girls how to play the guitar.
Cozy inside and out.
"Chen Dong, the contract is signed, you, you, you have a look." Xun Xue came out and handed over the 8 contracts. She looked at the boss in the cashmere suit and felt strange about her stuttering.
Chen Chuan looked over, the store manager has a monthly salary of 30,000 yuan, with a 2% turnover commission, and the other 7 people have a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan, with a 1% turnover commission.
Such a salary is indeed exaggerated for a cafe.
But if you think about it from another angle, this is not an ordinary cafe, but an internet celebrity cafe with all the staff, and the coffee beans used are the top Geisha coffee on the market. This kind of coffee beans is produced in Panama, known as flowing gold, with an annual output of only 200,000 bags.
The top Geisha coffee is priced at $500 per pound.
Brew out, 520 yuan per cup.
"To brew this kind of coffee, we need the most professional barista to train our 8 employees for 400 hours. But we don't have that much time. Next, we will train 12 hours a day for 5 days, and then we will officially start Business. Then learn while doing business. In the early stage, only 50 cups of coffee will be provided every day until supplies last. In addition to top-grade Geisha, we also have extra-grade Geisha, which costs $150 per pound. This is a cheap price, only 130 yuan a cup.”
Chen Chuan had also heard of this kind of coffee beans.
In this way, [Time Story] Cafe is a purely high-end cafe. This should be the first purely high-end cafe in Haiqin City. There are no other coffees in the store, only Geisha.
Geisha is one of the "Top Ten Expensive Coffees in the World". In the field of specialty coffee beans, Geisha is undoubtedly the most well-known legend. Because the pronunciation resembles the Japanese "geisha", it has this nickname. The Geisha coffee tree species, which was originally not abundant in production, makes this coffee bean even more dreamy because of its scarcity.
Geisha, which seems to come from the name of Kyoto, Japan, has the elegance and suppleness of Kyoto.
Xun Xue brought out a cup, and Chen Chuan sat in the car and took a sip.
Gently smashed, the entrance is soft, fresh and mellow, with fresh lemon, citrus tonality, jasmine and sweet fruit, with a unique fruity fragrance.
"Geisha has won more than a dozen championships in different coffee competitions, and its auction price has repeatedly hit new highs. It has already defeated Civet Coffee and also grabbed the style of Blue Mountain Coffee. The group directly quarries from Panama, and purchases 40 pounds per month in advance. , of which 10 pounds of top-quality Geisha native species competition-grade Gold Label beans, $500 per pound, a total of $5,000. Extra-grade Emerald Manor Green Label beans are $150 per pound, a total of $4,500 for 30 pounds, a total of $9,500 .”
"Each cup of coffee uses 50 coffee beans, about 0 grams, and can brew 680 coffees. The price of each cup is 130 yuan, which is 88,000 yuan. 10 pounds of top Geisha, 4535 grams, can brew 226 cups, each cup The price is 520 yuan, which is 117,000 yuan. So the profit of this 40 pounds of coffee is 205,000 yuan."
After Xun Xue finished reporting, Chen Chuan scratched his hair.
"Well, the turnover is 205,000 yuan, and the cost of coffee beans is 9,500 dollars, which is 65,000 yuan, leaving a profit of 140,000 yuan. Right?" Chen Chuan asked.
"right… "
"Then the monthly salary of a store manager is 30,000, the monthly salary of the clerk is 20,000, and the total of 8 people is 170,000... I will pay 10,000 per month to open this store?" Chen Chuan looked at Xun Xue.
Xun Xuedao: "Well, this is only the first month. We will launch light meals and increase the supply of coffee later. The first month is equivalent to training and trial operation. Revenues started to explode.”
Chen Chuan thought about it, anyway, with 2 million operating funds per month, it doesn't need to be so expensive. Just squander the 2 million operating funds on it.
"The purchase volume of Geisha coffee beans has increased by 10 times. In this case, the monthly income will be 2 million?" Chen Chuan asked.
"However, we can't sell 400 pounds of coffee, because the price is too high, too expensive." Xun Xue said.
"Price reduction, small profits but quick turnover." Chen Chuan said.
While talking, Chen Chuan suddenly received a system prompt: "The system testing is complete, [Time Story] 8 employees of Coffee Valley, with a total appearance of 752 points, completed the title of [Appearance Legion], and received a monthly operating fee of 2 million. Due to the excess of 30 points, an additional 300,000 operating funds will be awarded every month, which is 2.3 million operating funds. The host will apply for a new bank card, and the 2.3 million operating funds will be issued to the new bank card on time on the 1st of each month."
Chen Chuan took a sip of coffee, and when he heard the system prompt, he became more confident, and said directly to Xun Xue, "I will give you 2.3 million yuan tomorrow, and you can go buy ne11 top configuration. Can you buy it?"
"Yes, because our group has purchased a large number of iPhones before, so there is a supply agreement price."
"Discuss with the store manager to hold an opening reward activity. You can give an iPhone 11 as much as the recharge amount of the member, such as 10,000 yuan. Each of the 8 shop assistants has a task. Every time a 10,000 yuan member is established, give some small Reward, mobilize the enthusiasm." Chen Chuan said.
Xun Xue lowered her head and wrote it down in her notebook, saying, "Understood, I will maximize the profit."
next few days.
Chen Chuan took the time to go to China Merchants Bank to apply for a new card.
As soon as the application was completed, the system remitted 2.3 million yuan.
Chen Chuan directly transferred it to Xun Xue, asking her to use it as the operating fee of the cafe.
Xun Xue ordered beautiful plaid skirt work clothes for her. She found a top tailor shop in the city and used top-quality fabrics. Each person ordered three sets of three different styles, national style, British college style, and Japanese style. Korean sweet style. The price of each set is 3,000 yuan, a total of 9,000 yuan per person, and 72,000 yuan for 8 people.
The rest of the money will be used to negotiate with suppliers, get 500 top-of-the-line iPhone 11 units, and then start planning the opening activities.
The cafe, which was originally well decorated, looks more elegant and unique under Huang Sixian's second soft decoration. It is very pleasant to sit in and drink white water.
Chen Chuan went into the store, and Xun Xue happened to be away. Huang Sixian returned to Beimingshan Manor after the soft decoration was completed, and continued to work there.
The shop assistants really didn't know that he was the boss behind the scenes.
"Welcome to [Time Story], sir, would you like to try the top Geisha coffee from the Boquete coffee-producing region of Panama?" A girl asked with a sweet smile in front of the counter.
Her skin was so fair that it glistened in the sunlight that came in. Her long flowing hair danced in the sun and wind, making her look very bright and charming. Exquisite facial features, full forehead, perfect face shape, with fresh and elegant makeup, she smiles like an underage girl.
"Are you the store manager?" Chen Chuan asked.
"Yes, sir, would you like to order a cup of top-quality Geisha? There is an event for the soft opening now, see here for the top-up event." She pointed to the small blackboard on the side of the counter.
Chen Chuan smiled, the thin golden chalk characters on the blackboard were written by him and given to Xun Xue.
"The top-level Geisha is 520 yuan, isn't it too expensive? Is it a money grab? Your family is a little too much." Chen Chuan said.
"No, it's not." The young store manager seemed not expecting that the handsome-looking elder brother would be so vulgar, and directly confronted him face-to-face. Among the newcomers, she is barely an old bird. She explained: "Because we directly harvest the top Geisha coffee beans from Don Pepe Manor in Panama, the purchase price is 500 US dollars per pound, and our price is transparent. , here is the purchase price tag. Although it is very expensive, it is worth it, you will know it after a sip, and now it is matched with the top-up activity, which is equivalent to half the price, which is a good deal.”
She smiled and explained.
Chen Chuan looked at her and thought that her speech skills were mediocre, but she was young and beautiful, and her smile was contagious. He wanted to pretend to be the pickiest guest, but he couldn't seem to lose his temper when faced with the smile of such a beautiful lady.
"Hey, let me have a cup of top-quality Geisha for my brother. If it doesn't taste good, I will pour it out on the spot." Chen Chuan knocked on the counter and said.
Behind the counter, there were two girls. They looked at each other in surprise. It was the first time they met such a difficult customer as newcomers.
