After taking Zhou Chengming to the rental house and settling him down, Mingyue returned to her own room and began to write a plan.
First of all, the amount sold every day must be increased, and it would be best if there could be more stalls every day.
The second thing is to find a trustworthy vegetable supplier and butcher supply chain. Long-term cooperation is a win-win option, and the price will be relatively cheaper. If you can convince them to deliver the vegetables and meat to your door every day, you can save more time.
Another thing is to come up with a name for the stall, which will be the signboard if she opens a store in the future. And when people outside see that she is making money, some will definitely follow her example and sell cold dishes together. At that time, the only thing that can distinguish them is the name of the stall.
As for the welfare benefits for Zhou Chengming, in addition to free food and accommodation, Mingyue has two ideas. One is salary plus bonus, and bonuses are given when a certain amount is reached every day. The other is salary plus commission, and the amount of money is divided according to the certain amount reached every month. As for this, let him choose it himself when the time comes.
In the end, it was always too slow to earn hard-earned money like this. Mingyue thought it was time to take advantage of the prophet and make some lucrative investments.
By the time we had dinner in the evening, Zhou Sanming and Thursday Mingming all came with their families. Of course, Mingyue had already made arrangements in advance.
Seeing Zhou Chengming, Zhou Sanming smiled and patted his shoulder: "I've heard about Uncle Tiegen's affairs. He finally stood up for once. You, kid, have finally made it."
Zhou Chengming smiled but said nothing. He couldn't speak ill of his biological father in front of outsiders, even if his biological father didn't behave like a father at all.
"If you want to become famous, just follow my little sister and work hard. I tell you, if you can learn a little bit of her skills, you won't have to worry about the rest of your life." Ever since Zhou Siming knew that Mingyue made a net profit of thirty-three yuan on the first day of setting up the stall, he became a fan of girls. You know, his monthly salary is only thirty-six yuan.
To be honest, if my third brother hadn't stopped me, Zhou Siming would have almost submitted his resignation and followed my younger sister.
But he thought about it and felt that what his third brother said made sense. Although his younger sister's stall made money, it was indeed tiring.
The factory provides food and accommodation, holidays during festivals, and even gives out gifts from time to time. The factory is a stable job, and others are fighting for a place to work, but there is no way. If he really quits, his parents will scold him when he returns home.
So Zhou Siming gave up thinking about it and just kept his job as a worker.
Zhou Chengming had tasted Mingyue's cooking before and knew that she was quite good at cooking, so he naturally nodded to show that he understood.
Mingyue didn't treat him as an outsider and explained his salary and benefits directly at the dinner table.
Even louder than Zhou Chengming's reaction was Zhou Siming's exclamation: "What? The guaranteed monthly salary is only 60 yuan? Mingyue, did you say an extra ten?"
Even Zhou Sanming and Meng Zhen, as well as Ning Ning and Meng's mother, who came from wealthy families, couldn't help but widen their eyes at this moment, their faces full of disbelief.
Sixty is not a small sum of money these days. It is estimated that a poor family in the countryside cannot come up with sixty yuan in half a lifetime.
Zhou Chengming swallowed his saliva, suspecting that Mingyue had said something wrong, so he deliberately joked to ease the embarrassment: "Mingyue must have said something wrong, haha, how could it be sixty? You said it the wrong way around, it should be sixteen, I think sixteen is pretty good."
Mingyue said calmly, "You heard it right, it's 60 per month, and you can choose between daily commission or monthly bonus. It's up to Chengming to choose."
In fact, selling cold dishes is much more profitable than Zhou Sanming and his friends imagined. Excluding costs, they can make a net profit of more than 20 cents per pound from vegetarian dishes alone. After all, many vegetables now only sell for a few cents per pound, and even the more expensive ones are only more than 10 cents. However, Mingyue's vegetarian dishes are sold at the general price of 40 cents.
As for meat dishes, it goes without saying that the price of chicken, duck and goose meat is far less than that of pork. You can buy the best parts for 30 or 40 cents. Mingyue bought duck intestines, duck hearts, duck gizzards, etc., which can be bought for 20 cents, and she can get a lower price if she buys more. But the price she sells is 80 cents per pound, so the profit is huge. Mingyue can make more than 30 yuan a day just by doing a little bit. With Zhou Chengming joining in, she will make more money, so there is no need for her to be so stingy.
She knew that only by giving enough money could she convince people and make them willing to do things.
Although she believed in Zhou Chengming's character, she believed more in the ties of interest. As long as she bound Zhou Chengming with interests, he would never betray her, because betraying her would mean losing his own interests.
Mingyue spoke calmly, but the people in the room could no longer remain calm.
"Sixty? Did I hear it right? It's sixty, not sixteen?" Zhou Siming could no longer remain calm. Even though he took two gulps of white wine, his heart was still pounding violently.
Zhou Sanming also looked at Mingyue. It was not that he doubted Mingyue, but he was afraid that his younger sister was being kind and was deliberately trying to help Zhou Chengming, so he gave her a high salary.
Meng Zhen clenched the water cup tightly, feeling a little nervous for some reason.
Everyone was waiting for Mingyue's answer.
Mingyue smiled softly and said again with certainty: "I am not wrong, and you heard me right, it is sixty per month. But this is also hard-earned money, and every day will be very hard and tiring. And I can afford this price, I must have a good idea in my mind, don't worry, I will not lose money."
But Mingyue quickly continued, "Of course, I have to say something up front. I'm offering such a high price, so my requirements must be very high. If Chengming can't meet my requirements by then, then I can only follow the rules."
Originally Zhou Chengming's heart was very tense, but after hearing Mingyue's words, his heart slowly calmed down.
At least Mingyue didn't offer such a high price just because she felt sympathy for him.
Thinking of this, Zhou Chengming actually laughed: "Mingyue, don't worry. You trust me so much, I will definitely not let you down. No matter how high your request is, as long as I have your money, I will do it for you."
Mingyue curled her lips: "Then I'll wait and see."
Zhou Siming's excitement was broken by their words. Hearing this, he suddenly smiled and said, "My little sister has been in the city for two days. She is really different now. Now she can say such complicated idioms."
The smile on Mingyue's face froze. Is it complicated to wait and see? Or is the original owner's illiteracy too deeply rooted in people's minds
Maybe she should find a way to change their mindset, otherwise even if she becomes a millionaire in the future, her family will still treat her as an illiterate!
Zhou Sanming glanced at Mingyue, then glared at his brother: "I can't even stop your mouth when eating."
Zhou Siming was innocent and muttered, "That's right. My little sister didn't even know a few words, but now she can speak idioms."
The others burst into laughter and the atmosphere became very harmonious.
Mingyue was thinking that she must hide the plan and the account book well.
