The eighth day of the fourth month of the lunar calendar

From seven to nine o'clock in the morning, it was the peak of business, Yuan Qiuhua's eyes were fast, he was hurrying, his hands were not stopping, he was not stopping, he was working neatly, shuttling back and forth, and he was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground. Especially after the two children went to school, there was an endless stream of customers, the store was full, the time to go to work was tight, and the time to go to work was tight, and Yuan Qiuhua couldn't be lazy, smashed the signboard, she was sweating, hot noodles, tripping materials, adding soup, sending, collecting dishes, wiping the table, a person was even more busy panting, and there was no time to take a leisurely breath.

After nine o'clock, most of them are housewives at home, old men who are idle, and old ladies who buy vegetables, they are not anxious, they wait patiently, and eat slowly. After being busy for a few hours, Yuan Qiuhua could finally breathe a sigh of relief and entertain without hurrying.

Regardless of whether he is busy or not, and whether he is in a hurry or not, Xie Han has always been lazy and slippery, saying that he has no work to do, and he is unwilling to go out to find work, but he still sleeps with his head covered, and still does not come to help.

At ten o'clock, Yuan Qiuhua was busy cleaning, cleaning, cleaning, inventory, and placing purchase orders. At eleven o'clock, she came home, busy tidying, busy with laundry, busy cooking. After lunch, the two children went to school, and she was busy cleaning and cleaning.

Xie Han left everything behind, became a full-time master, slept and fell into bed, stretched out his hands for clothes, opened his mouth for food, spent money, and enjoyed the blessing of his wife's service. Eating and drinking enough to find excitement, dressed glamorously and thinking about joy, he rummaged through boxes and cabinets, stole money and cards, went to entertainment venues at night to move his muscles, first ate and drink, then played, and finally bathed. I go home in the early morning, take a lazy nap in the morning, and in the afternoon I either watch TV at home or go out to play cards. He worked for three days and had fun for seven days, month after month, year after year, and he was in peace.

At two o'clock, Yuan Qiuhua went to the store. Nanmenqiao Breakfast Shop is the main store, with ten branches in the city, each store has three contract workers, namely the store manager, cook, handyman, two temporary workers, two waiters, one hourly worker, and a dishwashing aunt. The shops in the commercial street and the administrative district are not limited to breakfast and snacks, but also provide stir-fried and fast food at noon, undertake take-out, solicit private seats, and also operate supper at night, such as hot pot, barbecue, and spicy hot.

Every Monday and Thursday at 3 p.m., the manager of each branch will come to the main store for a regular meeting. Because wages are linked to performance, the store manager not only assumes the responsibility of expanding customers and contacting business, but also leads by example and takes the lead everywhere, but also has a commission for business and turnover, and can earn a few hundred yuan more per month with his ability. The more active the store manager is, the more money he earns, and the more the boss makes money and gives more rewards. Yuan Qiuhua arrived in advance, set up the venue, and prepared refreshments. When everyone arrived, Yuan Qiuhua presided over the meeting, listened to the store manager's report, summarized the turnover, discussed recruitment and resignation, adjusted rotations, holiday benefits, salary increases and promotions, purchase channels, proposed whether to increase or decrease varieties, whether to replace suppliers, and whether to expand or expand stores. Yuan Qiuhua either approves, or negatives, or praises, or criticizes, and arranges the next step, assigns business indicators, and determines the business progress.

Because it is a chain store, the store is uniformly decorated, the personnel are uniformly dressed, the goods are uniformly procured, the ingredients are distributed in a unified manner, and the operation is managed in a unified manner, so as to stabilize the brand benefits, improve work efficiency, ensure product quality, and save costs. Even so, every month, only the wages and food and accommodation expenses of employees, there are hundreds of thousands, working capital is also hundreds of thousands, as well as rent, water, electricity, taxes, etc., Yuan Qiuhua bears a lot of pressure, so that she often loses sleep, thinks about the source and use of funds, thinks about the whereabouts and benefits of the funds, tries to save the source and open the flow, shortens the business hours but increases the turnover, streamlines the personnel and wages but improves labor efficiency, racks her brains to develop large customers, contacts the unit to eat at a fixed point, often difficult to sleep all night.

Within 100 employees, it is the employees who work for the boss, and outside the 100 people, it is the boss who works for the employees. Employees work hard to earn sweat money, and bosses work mentally to earn money. The boss has done the work of the employees, and it also starts from the employees, and the boss can understand the hard work of the employees, but do the employees appreciate the hard work of the boss? To flexibly balance all kinds of relationships, to skillfully open up all kinds of joints, to be witty and circling all kinds of characters, to be careful in calculation, to weigh the pros and cons, to be legal and reasonable, to be benevolent and charitable, to be amiable, to be approachable, the standard of a good boss seems to be more perfect than the imagined sages. Making money is the purpose of doing business, and it is the businessman's own duty, so that employees have work every day and a monthly salary, and they are the responsible bosses.

Fortunately, in the breakfast industry, customers rarely owe credit, the return of funds is fast, the turnover is short, and the profit margin is not low, as long as the reputation is good, clean and hygienic, good quality and low price, there is almost no possibility of loss. But this kind of business that does not have to worry about losing money, and it is not a business that ordinary people can do, first of all, there must be strong funds to pave the way, and secondly, there must be local officials and gentry as the backstage, in case peers are jealous and troublesome, the local police are backing, in order to deter ruffians and hooligans from making trouble, and then have the strength to take charge of themselves, the boss must be an expert, knowledgeable and intelligent, and will be good at calculation, and also have the ability to observe and recognize people, such as speculating on people's psychology, whether it is a supplier, an employee, or a landlord, you must continue to do it, and want to take advantage of the situation to raise the price, and procrastinate to deal with it, just star, catch it hard, pinch your neck to bargain, and force you to comply。

There is pressure to be motivated, there is to pay is reward, and high pressure is accompanied by more benefits. Yue Jin Doujin, Yuan Qiuhua didn't have to do everything, she could hire a manager to do it for her, preside over the overall situation and be fully responsible, she retired behind the scenes, sent her love to the landscape, and enjoyed the leisurely life of the rich sister. Just like when she was studying, or when she went out to read, or when she was writing behind closed doors, she entrusted the whole thing to a temporary agent, it didn't matter if she made less money, as long as she was recharged and in a good mood, it was worth hiring. But she was born to work hard, even if she did it, there was no discomfort, if she was idle for many years, it would be regarded as house arrest, like useless waste, barren good times, abusing life energy, and the greater the pressure, the greater the rebound, she kept trying, to see how big her potential is?

After a few days and nights of not working, she is so bored that she doesn't know how to spend time, she is not interested in eating, drinking and having fun, she disdains to play cards and gamble, she is also uninspired when she reads and writes, and it doesn't take too long to do housework. On the contrary, being so busy that your hands are not stopping, your feet are uncertain, you have no time to think nonsense, but you are stable, you are tired and exhausted, you fall asleep, you don't toss and turn, you don't have insomnia, you don't have a nervous breakdown, it's also a benefit.

In the afternoon, she was busy receiving goods, preparing seasonings, shaking noodles, stewing soup and simmering bones, and busy until the children were out of school and Xie Han went home. She cooks, the family eats well, washes, and she takes her son to sleep.

Xie Han is used to staying up late, not sleeping at night, either going out to play cards or watching TV in the living room.
