“Qingxue, I miss you so much!”
Inside the milk tea shop, Xiao Yu hugged Lian Qingxue tightly.
Less than a month after the military training, the Snow Tea shop in the capital was already open.
Xiao Yu and the others had come to the capital.
Xiao Yu was incredibly excited to see Lian Qingxue, and Lian Qingxue was also happy to see her.
This Snow Tea shop in the capital was a crucial step in the brand’s development.
They had brought experienced staff, many of whom had come from the orphanage and were familiar with Lian Qingxue.
Meeting again in a different city, it felt like they had countless things to talk about.
“Xiao Yu, the shop in the capital, is the biggest and most important Snow Tea shop. Are you confident as the store manager?”
Lin Lin, who was now responsible for the work in the provincial capital, asked.
She not only managed the store in the provincial capital, but also had to help take care of the one in Spring City.
Xiao Yu had been transferred to the capital to be the store manager.
Although Xiao Yu managed fewer stores, her position was more important than Lin Lin’s.
Lin Lin was responsible for the foundation, while Xiao Yu held the future of Snow Tea in her hands. She was extremely important.
“Don’t worry! I’m ready!” Xiao Yu stood tall and confident.
“And the rest of you, Qingxue and I chose you to come to the capital because we see you as our future store managers! I promise, if the capital store’s profits meet the requirements and your performance meets our expectations, you will have your own stores, just like Lin Lin!”
Looking at the other employees who had come from afar, Qi Yun also encouraged them.
Snow Tea had been facing a shortage of personnel in its expansion plan.
Among the ten or so people who came to the capital store, Qi Yun and Lian Qingxue believed that they had the drive and potential to become capable employees.
They didn’t just see them as regular store employees, but rather hoped that they would strive to grow and become capable individuals.
Qi Yun’s words made the employees’ eyes light up.
Being a store manager at Snow Tea was not an empty title. Just look at Lin Lin!
Lin Lin now received one-tenth of the profits from the provincial capital store, and she also received profits from the Spring City store.
In total, her monthly income reached three to four thousand yuan.
This income was considered high in this era, both in the S Province and in the capital.
Being a store manager at Snow Tea meant being in the high-income class! Being a store manager at Snow Tea was a visible future!
Especially for these employees, who didn’t have high educational qualifications.
Without working at Snow Tea, they might never reach this level in their lifetime.
Now, Qi Yun had given them an opportunity!
Although they felt a little uneasy coming from Spring City to the capital, as soon as they heard Qi Yun’s words, they immediately became spirited.
“Boss, don’t worry, we will make the capital store successful!”
Qi Yun was indeed reassured.
The employee structure at Snow Tea was quite special.
It started mainly with children from the orphanage, and the employees had developed a sibling-like bond.
This unique atmosphere permeated the shop.
Although there was a hierarchical structure between store managers, supervisors, and employees, there was almost equal communication during work.
It felt like being with family.
Afterward, Snow Tea recruited many employees who were not from the orphanage, but the original employees remained the backbone.
Their way of interacting with each other still influenced the new employees.
At least for now, the internal atmosphere at Snow Tea was very good.
One could even say that the employees at Snow Tea had a strong sense of belonging.
When faced with difficulties, they would help each other and work together to overcome them.
Qi Yun even believed that these employees were Snow Tea’s most important assets.
He worked hard to maintain this family-like bond among them.
This time, when opening the capital store, Qi Yun further reformed the employee system at Snow Tea.
He learned from the model of Haidilao, where old employees would train new employees, creating a hierarchical development model.
In simple terms, an old store manager would train a qualified new store manager, and the old store manager would receive three percent of the new store’s profits.
For example, Lin Lin not only received profits from the provincial capital store but also from the Spring City store.
This was because the current store manager in Spring City, after Xiao Yu’s departure, was someone she had trained and had been approved by Qi Yun and Lian Qingxue.
After this reform, Snow Tea’s employee system was essentially complete and had reached a relatively perfect state.
The old store managers, in order to receive profits from the new stores, would not suppress the development of those below them, but would instead devote their efforts to nurturing new talent.
As for the employees at the lower level, they would not be passive or negligent because of their lower positions; instead, they would strive to improve themselves.
With the completion of the employee system, Xiao Yu also noticed that the motivation of her subordinates had increased significantly.
Life had a head start now.
Although Xiao Yu sounded confident, the business at the capital store was not going well after its opening.
“Qingxue, if we can’t earn at least 15,000 yuan in a day, we’ll be operating at a loss…” Xiao Yu was more anxious than Lian Qingxue.
After all, if the capital store’s profits were good, she would meet the requirements for profit sharing and be able to receive money.
“Yeah, yesterday’s revenue was just over 9,000 yuan, which is still not enough,” Lian Qingxue frowned.
The beginning of the capital store was much better than the Spring City store, but its costs were higher.
Even though they were selling close to 10,000 yuan a day, they were still operating at a loss.
Lian Qingxue couldn’t figure out how to change the situation.
Xiao Yu looked at Lian Qingxue’s helpless expression and collapsed onto the service counter, wailing. “What should we do?”
“What’s wrong, Xiao Yu?” Just as Liang Zhongyong walked in from outside, he saw Xiao Yu crying.
They had become quite familiar with each other these past few days.
Xiao Yu had an outgoing and cheerful personality, and Liang Zhongyong intentionally developed a relationship with her. They could be considered good friends.
“Liang Professor, you’re here again? Professor Wu, you’re here too?” Behind Liang Zhongyong was Professor Wu, who wore a helpless expression.
Hearing Xiao Yu’s words, Professor Wu twitched the corner of his mouth, as if he wanted to complain.
Did he come here for this?
This Liang was really something!
Not only did he drink milk tea every day himself, but he also made everyone around him drink it every day.
After drinking it for a few days, he was starting to develop hyperlipidemia!
Thinking of this, he glanced at his own belly.
Why did it feel like there was an extra layer of fat on it?
“What were you crying about just now?” Liang Zhongyong asked.
Seeing Lian Qingxue also wearing a troubled expression, he couldn’t help but feel concerned.
“It’s nothing, just that the business at the milk tea shop hasn’t been good recently, and we’re still operating at a loss,” Lian Qingxue explained.
However, from her expression, it seemed that she didn’t have the idea that Liang Zhongyong could help.
“Who says I can’t help?” Liang Zhongyong couldn’t accept that.
He felt that his granddaughter underestimated him.
But when he thought about it, he realized that he really didn’t have any solutions.
After all, he was a professor and had family properties.
He had never done business before.
If it was anything else, it would be fine, but when it came to these matters, he was powerless.
He couldn’t help but shift his gaze to Professor Wu, who was standing by.
“Don’t look at me! Haven’t you caused enough trouble for me? Let me tell you, your friends have already been troubled by you!”
The milk tea was delicious, but the sugar content was so high that none of them could drink it every day.
If it wasn’t for the good relationship between Professor Wu and Liang Zhongyong, they would have severed ties long ago.
Liang Zhongyong scratched his head even more.
At this time, Qi Yun had just finished his class and walked in from outside.
He happened to see the table full of worried faces.
“What are you all doing?”
When Lian Qingxue saw Qi Yun, her eyes lit up.
“Qi Yun, Xiao Yu just told me that the business has been slow these past few days. Do you have any ideas?”
Liang Zhongyong, who was on the side, felt a bit jealous.
His own granddaughter didn’t trust him but believed in Qi Yun!
He had lived for forty years longer than Qi Yun!
In a somewhat hesitant manner, Qi Yun’s expression also showed some hesitation.
“Well, there is a way…”
“Ah?” Lian Qingxue was puzzled by Qi Yun’s expression.
It seemed like he was in a dilemma.
“What’s wrong?”
“Qingxue, let me ask you, how much are you willing to sacrifice for Snow Tea?”
Qi Yun suddenly asked a seemingly unrelated question.
Lian Qingxue thought for a long time before finally speaking, “Unless you make me give up, otherwise, I’m willing to give everything for it.”
Snow Tea’s significance to Lian Qingxue was not just about a career.
This brand carried her expectations of changing the fate of the children in the orphanage.
More importantly, Snow Tea was a joint venture between her and Qi Yun.
Seeing Lian Qingxue’s determined eyes, Qi Yun nodded and gently touched her head.
“What if I tell you that developing Snow Tea requires you to become famous?”
“Huh?” Lian Qingxue was puzzled. Qi Yun’s words seemed to have a magical power.
“Have you heard this saying: ‘I am my own spokesperson’?”
Lian Qingxue suddenly felt that Qi Yun’s words had a hypnotic effect.
