Chapter 2 Things are always done one by one
After eating breakfast in the rental house, looking at the bright sunshine outside, the weather was not as cold as before, so I changed into a shirt with a long-sleeved base layer inside, and then went out and went to the "base camp" of dark incense.
When I went to the flower shop, it turned out that Lan Yu was not in the store, but fortunately I also had a key to get inside, and I happened to see a message on the table: Spring is here, the variety in the store is not enough, I went out to the flower wholesale market to buy, and came back at about eleven o'clock.
Looking at the expression of a pig's head drawn at the bottom of the message, she probably guessed that I would come to the flower shop to find her, plus after replying to me early in the morning, I didn't reply to her for so long, indicating that I hadn't gotten up at that time, so I implied that I was a "pig's head", and I couldn't help but smile. I didn't think it was okay for the time being, but I happened to see Tinker Bell come out of the cat nest with a "meow", and it approached me, as if it had found a timely "partner" in loneliness.
"Tinker Bell ~ Meow, are you going to play with me?"
It seemed to be able to understand what I said, and it "meowed" again, and jumped lightly on my lap, and I held it and gently stroked the hair, like a "pet cat" on the Internet. I have to say that Lan Yu is quite fond of Tinker Bell, and after a long time, Tinker Bell is no longer the little cat that didn't have any hair before, and the black and white hair has gradually become thicker.
I played with Tinker Bell for a while, and then I went to open the computer in the store, and there is a printer here, because I brought a USB flash drive, so that I can print out the plan, so that I can communicate with Lan Yu later.
At about eleven o'clock, suddenly a small truck came at the door of the flower shop, and Lan Yu took the lead in getting out of the passenger seat and went around to the back of the small truck to move the newly purchased flowers down. When I saw this scene, the first thing I did was to go out and help.
Lan Yu put down a pot of flowers to the ground, looked at me and asked, "When did you come here?"
I also moved the flower pot from the small truck, and at the same time replied to her "not long after I first came", looking at Lan Yu's current appearance, I really can't imagine the grumpy her in the past, in fact, she is a very sensible, and very motivated girl, even if Anne left her a lot of wealth before leaving, she did not let herself become like a "nouveau riche", but as always. Maybe it's because of Lan Yu's family since she was a child, so she has been tempered from that poor predicament.
In Guangdong, there are many people who buy orange potted plants during the Spring Festival every year, which means "good luck" and a good omen of fortune, which shows that Lan Yu still has to think about some things about business. I watched as she struggled to bring the orange potted plants into the store, the larger ones were almost blocking most of her thin body, but even so, she did the job like a woman. At that moment, I suddenly understood why she was always so irritable, probably because she put a protective color on her fragile heart.
After unloading all the goods on the pickup truck, Lan Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked over and chatted with the driver with a cigarette in his mouth, and then paid for the goods. When we got back to the flower shop, we simply took a short break and then immediately started discussing the plan.
"When we come back after the year, we will start to recruit, mainly for people in positions such as flower training, investment manager, designer, customer service, salesman, etc., but you should remember one thing when you go to recruit, it is better to spend a high price to hire a professional person, rather than a low price to find someone with little experience. Secondly......"
Lan Yu interrupted me and asked with a puzzled expression, "Why? Isn't it good to save some labor costs in the early stage?"
I paused and explained: "It's because it's in the early stage, so we have to stabilize, some money can't be saved, you think, if you find a group of people who can't do anything, and then they can't do it and leave, we still have to continue to spend time looking for people, and the cost is higher." At present, the first people to recruit are very likely to be the leaders of various departments in the future, so they must have enough ability and experience. ”
After lighting a cigarette, I went to the downwind position and continued: "Next, the market we are currently developing is to go to the first and second tier cities, and now we have three flower shops in Guangzhou, so we don't need too many franchise stores in this area for the time being." After the year, we will open up the market in Shenzhen, and then develop these second-tier cities around us, with the development trend of first- and second-tier cities, we will take the high-end route, and these roads will be paved to lay down the first- and second-tier cities in other provinces. ”
"What about the first and second tier cities in other provinces after they are opened, what is the next step?"
I looked at the map on the table that we were drawing circles and writing again, pondered for a while, picked up the pen and surrounded the whole map in a big circle, and then looked at Lan Yu and said: "At that time, we already have enough fame and funds, and our own positioning is biased towards the middle and high-end, then we will take the route of joining the whole country and fully open the market!"
Lan Yu looked at the map on the table, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in a somewhat excited tone: "Yes! Another point, based on the 'private custom' service plan you did before, we have a great advantage in the mid-to-high-end market, people in the city are not bad for money, they are short of time, and our service is to help them make suitable and high-end customized services in a limited time! When that time comes, the money will naturally come in!"
She folded her hands together, her fingers crossed at the same time, her expression became more and more radiant, and after looking forward to it for a while, she looked at me and said with a smile: "Cheng Ting, you are really a business genius! Whether it is the marketing plan you made for Dark Xiang before, or the investment promotion plan this time, it is all great!!" After speaking, she actually reached out and touched my hair.
"Hey, you little brat, can you be serious, mess up my hair!" I dodged, but my face was smiling.
"What are you talking about?, who's a little brat, aren't you two years older than me?!"
Good guy, this aunt's words are really unique!
I walked around to the other side of the table and replied, "yes, so you should call me 'brother'!"
"I won't!"
......
In my impression, this is the first time I have been so happy with Lan Yu, whether it is the inner pimple left between us before, or the future development of Dark Incense, it seems that everything is slowly getting better, and my life is gradually dyed with a layer of Se color with these "getting better".
After leaving the dark fragrance flower shop, I originally thought about going back to the company, but after calling Qi Min, he said that he was going on a business trip from today, which would take about two or three days, and said that he would surprise me when he came back. In that case, then I'll continue to wait and see, and I won't go back to the company yet.
This evening, I bought some leeks on the way back, and I didn't know what to eat, so I just bought another piece of chicken breast, and I remember the last time I cooked, I used chicken breast to fry leeks. Not to mention, the taste is really good!
After the meal was ready, around six o'clock, I turned on my computer and typed on the keyboard to write the marketing plan for Wenshua's café, and at the same time ate food from time to time, and because of this, I didn't finish my meal until about eight o'clock in the evening.
Thankfully, in the past two days, my brain seems to have an endless amount of inspiration all of a sudden, and I have been able to write the plan very smoothly and clearly. At around 11 p.m., I rechecked the freshly baked plan twice to make sure there was nothing wrong with it, and then I sent it to Wen Shuya and called her.
"Hey, what's wrong with Cheng Ting?"
"Well, the café plan you asked me to do two days ago, I made it, I just sent it to you, you can take a look at it first, if you have any questions or suggestions, you can contact me at any time, and I will take time to modify and improve it then." ”
"So fast?!well, okay, I'll see later. ”
While talking, I lit a cigarette, and I forgot that I still had a cigarette in my mouth, causing the cigarette butt to suddenly fall on my foot, which made me "hiss" and quickly dodge.
"Hey, Cheng Ting, what's wrong with you?"
I blew down the cigarette butt, put it on the ashtray, and said, "No, it's fine." ”
After I finished speaking, Wen Shuya didn't speak, but she didn't hang up the phone, and I didn't know what to say, so the two of them were silent for about ten seconds.
"Then, I'll hang up the phone first, and I'll talk to you when I'm done reading the plan. ”
"Well, bye-bye. ”
I was stunned for a while before putting the phone down, I don't know what kind ......of ghost emotion it was, I glanced at the cigarette on the ashtray, and when I wanted to pick it up and continue smoking, I found that it had burned to the butt of the cigarette, so I had to dispel the idea.
No matter what kind of emotion it is, at a certain stage when you are young, emotional things will only become a constraint for you to move forward bravely, put all this aside, you just go forward, and leave the rest to "let it be"! At this point, those things that I hadn't done a few days ago were all done at once, and I suddenly felt a little empty in my heart. I looked at the dishes and chopsticks on the table that had not been cleaned up after eating, and the remaining rice grains in the bowls had been dried up, so I was stunned for a while before taking them to the kitchen to wash.
There may be more things to be busy in the future, but it doesn't matter, just like the dishes and chopsticks in the washbasin, wash - things are always done one by one.
