Chapter 235: Becoming Stronger and Stronger
At the end of the supermarket opening ceremony, the prize activity of interacting with the masses brought the opening ceremony of the day to a climax.
After all, Yu Mingyue, who is in good spirits on happy occasions, is really generous in the setting of prizes, a total of 10 groups of activities that require about 50 people to participate, and the supermarket has prepared a high-quality thermos cup worth 15 yuan for each group of winners; Plastic water cups worth 6 yuan were also prepared for the participants.
These prizes are sold at a clear price in the supermarket, but the prizes prepared in advance are specially printed with the words "Xingyueyan Life Supermarket" when the manufacturer is in the manufacturer, and the supermarket has been registered with the industrial and commercial bureau of the logo pattern (light yellow as the full moon in the circle, three emerald green leaves evenly connected in a triangle).
At that time, when the three families gathered around to look at the logo map drawn by Yu Mingyue, some people said that it was like a small seedling growing in a yellow circle, but the rhizome was as thick and green as the leaves; Others say it's just three green leaves in a yellow circle.
The three relatives who had just heard what a trademark was, but they didn't see the good meaning of Yu Mingyue's painting, but felt that they should replace it with festive colors and patterns. Na Yufen also said that it is best to register the word 'Fu' or 'Cai' directly.
When everyone glared at Na Yufen, Kong Xinggang asked curiously, "Xiaoyue, does it mean that you draw this?" β
Yu Mingyue nodded and chuckled: "Well, green leaves represent environmental protection and health, which means that our supermarket will always sell healthy and green high-quality food as the mainstream in the future; Three green leaves, but they are with our three families, and the three green leaves want to be connected. It means that the three of us will always be united; The other is the three-leaf clover connected pattern, no matter what angle you look at. It is also like an eagle with wings spread high, which means that the three of us will be able to achieve great ambitions in the future. β
A family member who was said to be convinced. They all laughed happily and praised Yu Mingyue for the good design of this picture. Even Na Yufen praised Yu Mingyue twice.
It's just that there is a fourth point that Yu Mingyue didn't say. It was the pale yellow circle like a full moon that represented herself.
She is the full moon with the light yellow as the background, and the reason why she works hard to make herself stronger in this life is to protect these relatives she cares about the most in the protective shield she drew with her strength. And this circle like a full moon also means that she wants a complete and perfect life.
The opening event ended with hundreds of people still in mind, and the two glass doors of the supermarket were also wide open. I have been curious about this supermarket for nearly a week, and at this time, the people who are even more curious are all rushing in.
Knowing that today must be a good start, Yu Mingyue with a happy smile on her face, pulled Kong Xiaoyu, who didn't go to the seat, and helped the two supermarket employees in the outer area of the exit to greet these people who had turned from the masses into customers at this time, how to store the items they could not bring into the supermarket in the lockers in the outer area, and guide customers to enter the supermarket from the entrance area to shop.
Ten minutes later, after the peak of customers entering the door, Yu Mingyue called Wang Lanhou, a 35-year-old accountant at the original acquisition station and now the temporary manager of the supermarket. Only then did he take Kong Xiaoyu's hand and walk to the cashier area to remind the four cashiers who had been trained for nearly half a month.
"Hehe, on the first day of opening today, everyone came more than two hours early in the morning to help. Although this is the first time you have actually faced customers. But don't be nervous, just follow the operation method of the training to make the cashier. But I still have the old saying that the most important thing in cashier work is to be careful. We can't charge a penny more from our customers, and we can't be negligent at work. Causing losses to the company. Finally, it is important to remember the quality of service that our supermarkets pay the most attention to. The detailed Manager Wang should tell you every day, and everyone should remember it, so I won't say more. Did you hear what you just reminded you of? β
"Hear me."
Four girls wearing uniform work clothes and wearing worker badges on their chests, ranging from 18 to 24 years old, with the highest education and only graduating from high school, replied in unison, Yu Mingyue's expression was relaxed, and a faint smile was revealed.
"Hehe, that's it. Now that you haven't had a customer check out, check that you're ready to do so. β
After explaining, he turned his head and pulled Kong Xiaoyu to walk into the supermarket, and smiled at Wang Lan: "Hehe, Aunt Wang, you have to worry more about it just after opening today, and you can do your best to recruit people." Now there is no supervision of loss prevention, three loss prevention employees are not enough to have at least four, busy after the first week, after the staff will work two shifts a day, the position of the loss prevention officer is mainly to be honest but honest, within 50 years old, there is no need to have any requirements for academic qualifications.
Cashiers are temporarily enough for two per shift on weekdays, and let four people work extra when they encounter festivals, but at least eight people must be recruited before the New Year, but the education must be at least junior high school, and the age is less than 30.
At the end of the fresh area, poultry, aquatic products, fresh meat, frozen meat, vegetables, fruits, and cooked food areas are still at least one person in each class in each district.
As for the three areas of food, dry goods, and grain, oil and non-staple food, there is one person per class in each district, and now there are enough people for 6 people, but the daily necessities area and household appliances area are the largest, and it is appropriate to allocate two people in each district, so there are still two people missing. β
After more than ten days of contact, Wang Lan no longer felt that it was strange that Yu Mingyue, a 12-year-old child, knew so much, and listened carefully while responding, and as soon as Yu Mingyue stopped at this time, she hurriedly said that she would do her best to recruit people.
What Yu Mingyue likes is that Wang Lan doesn't talk much, but she is serious and careful in her work, and said with a chuckle: "Everyone has worked hard today, and there are still a lot of gifts to be sent to the masses before, and when you get off work at 9 o'clock in the evening, you give each employee a thermos cup for prizes." In the past few days, everyone is not proficient in this new job, and there is a shortage of manpower, so we can only let everyone go to work, you record the number of days on attendance, and at the end of the month, these days will be counted as double wages for everyone. The two meals in the cafeteria at noon and afternoon were also better, and each meal of meat dishes was made into two meats and one soup. After a while, all the people will be recruited. After the supermarket is on the right track, find another day for employees to have a meal together after work. β
Wang Lan, who has always been shrewd and discerning. already knew that Yu Mingyue was done talking about business, and laughed softly.
"Okay. I've written them all down. Then I would like to represent myself and all the staff in this first place, thank you Xiaoyue for thinking so much. Working for a generous boss like Xiaoyue's family, we employees have chosen the right person, hehe. β
After speaking, he turned his head sideways and smiled at Kong Xiaoyu, who was walking quietly beside Yu Mingyue: "Hehe, Sister Kong, you are really blessed, you have such a sensible and capable daughter as Xiaoyue, unlike me, I often have to worry about my stinky boy." β
Kong Xiaoyu chuckled and said politely: "Boys are naughtier than girls, you don't see the twins in my family." At home, the skin can lift the roof, today to the supermarket, either touch this, or touch that, the fruit that is ripe on the orchard at home is not young and old, they don't see a day or two to pick a to eat, today to the supermarket, that is obviously their own orchard planted peaches and pears but they gnawed a few, you see this is not trick-or-treating, hehe. β
Kong Xiaoyu didn't want others to notice how capable her daughter was. He only didn't mention Yu Mingyue in his words, and directly talked about his sons.
Wang Lan glanced at Yu Mingyue, who was still chuckling as she walked beside her, and thought to herself that this was not a little sensible, and she didn't feel that her mother was more partial to her younger brother.
"Huh. This was the case when the children were young, and today is the first time I have seen Sister Kong and your twins, but I can see that these two children are smart. If you're more sensible, you'll definitely be as capable as Satsuki. β
After speaking, seeing Kong Xiaoyu politely responded, Wang Lan smiled and said, "The supermarket just opened today." There's a lot going on, and I'll have to look around. Sister Kong, if you and Xiaoyue have something to do, you can also go first, I will keep this stall for your family. β
"Well, Aunt Wang, you are busy, there are a lot of relatives and friends here today, my mother and I are indeed going to sit at the table at noon, during this period, Aunt Wang, you will worry more, I will come back in the afternoon, if there is anything, call my brother-in-law."
When Wang Lan walked away, Yu Mingyue pulled Kong Xiaoyu around the supermarket.
At this time, the number of customers in the supermarket has not decreased but increased compared to half an hour ago, and they are basically a group of several people, or a family of several people of all ages come to the supermarket. Most of these people are curious to stand in front of various new shelves or containers, pointing and talking about these new things.
Empty-handed, but they are all dressed differently from the present, but they are very outstanding, Yu Mingyue's mother and daughter walked all the way in the supermarket, which attracted the attention of many people.
Most of the women are looking at the light gray suit skirt that Kong Xiaoyu wears that is not sold on the street, but is well-cut and good-looking; And the children basically stared at Yu Mingyue's light pink and white polka dots long-sleeved cotton dress with pointed collars in a daze, especially the light yellow belt around her waist with a big colorful bow, which made these children not want to blink.
Yu Mingyue is now not used to paying attention to other people's attention to her, so she only walked while introducing the situation in the supermarket to Kong Xiaoyu, and all kinds of interesting things that she and Kong Xinggang made to prepare for the construction of this supermarket before seeing the industry.
But Kong Xiaoyu, although she laughed while listening, she was still stared at more and more by these eyes, and became more and more restrained, seeing that some women were smiling at her, the smile she gave the other party seemed a little unnatural.
After a while, Yu Mingyue noticed Kong Xiaoyu's discomfort, glanced around, and saw that many women and children were looking at their mother and daughter, and some of them showed a kind smile when they saw her looking over, Yu Mingyue nodded back with a decent smile, and took Kong Xiaoyu's hand.
"Hehe, Mom, I'll take you to the warehouse area and office area behind the supermarket to have a look, if you come here in the future, you will definitely have to go to me or my uncle at the end of the office area." After reading it, let's go to the restaurant earlier, you haven't talked to Grandma Wang and them for a long time, and then you and Grandma Wang will have a good talk. β
"Hehe, okay. Your grandmother Wang said before that she would follow me back to the village today and stay in our house for a few days. Hehe, now that the family has built three more rooms, and the place to live is also more relaxed, you remember to persuade your Grandpa Jiang and Grandpa Song to let them go today, the three rooms are just enough for the three old people to live. "In the past few years, the three families who were originally unrelated have gotten along like good relatives.
"Okay, with Grandma Wang, they will help you take care of the two leather boys, Dalong and Xiaolong, Mom, you can worry less at home."
"Huh"
Mother and daughter walk on both sides. While laughing and talking, I went to visit a row of ten warehouses, three offices and a staff canteen rented by the dam outside the back door exit of the supermarket. Then I returned to the supermarket checkout area.
Yu Mingyue looked at the four cashiers on the side, when they were all working neatly, and no one had any problems. This is when he and Kong Xiaoyu got out of the supermarket, talking and laughing all the way, and in less than ten minutes, they arrived on the small street where there are many restaurants in Kapok City today.
Dong Zigui said that this high-end restaurant has always been open here, but four years ago it was barely a little classy, and now in 1994, this restaurant is only a notch higher than those small restaurants that sell rice noodles, noodles, steamed buns, and porridge everywhere.
However, in the past two years, the restaurant has switched to home-cooked food, and business is much better than two years ago. After all, most people are not wealthy, and they don't have the habit of calling friends to high-end restaurants to eat and sing when they are free, but when they don't want to cook or have guests, they like to consume this kind of home-cooked restaurant.
Judging from Yu Mingyue's experience in her previous life to 2014, the best time to eat in Kapok City is between 1998 and 2003. It was at a low ebb too early, and it started too late to accumulate the strength needed in the frenzied competition that followed.
However, seeing that this fourth uncle, who was indefinite, was able to run this small restaurant for four years with gritted teeth. hasn't changed careers yet, and Yu Mingyue is also a little relieved.
"Satsuki, what are you thinking?" Seeing that her daughter stopped when she walked more than ten meters away from the restaurant, Kong Xiaoyu shouted.
"Huh. It's nothing, just wondering when the red brick houses on both sides of this street will break. After Yu Mingyue finished speaking, she felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly added: "I heard that many places in the city are going to be rebuilt now. This street seems to be under the scope of reconstruction. β
This girl is really getting less and less vigilant, but fortunately, she has her own cover.
Kong Xiaoyu secretly glanced at this coarse nervous daughter in her heart. Hurriedly asked, "In this case, then where do you have to move the restaurant of your fourth aunt?" Earlier, we built a new building over there, and your fourth aunt's vegetable shop didn't open before it opened. I heard that this restaurant can still earn four or five thousand yuan a month. Satsuki, what if you let them move back to Changshou Road? The current faΓ§ade of our house, in addition to forty or fifty square meters, there are more than 100 or hundreds of square meters, and it should be appropriate to open a restaurant. β
Kong Xiaoyu was a little distressed about the business that was about to be lost, and she was even more worried about her fourth sister's family, thinking of a way while asking.
"Not quite right." Seeing that his mother was a little puzzled, he explained: "There is a community and a hospital over there, plus a school that admits students immediately, and now it is the most profitable to open my second aunt's restaurant, which also serves three meals, has good taste and low consumption." My fourth aunt thinks about opening a high-end restaurant every day, and he who has face and makes a lot of money, and he definitely doesn't want to open a small restaurant when he opens a new restaurant. Let's open it into a high-end one, a few people can eat it, and they won't lose their lives. β
"Ah, what's the matter, he's just such a person, alas~~~" Kong Xiaoyu couldn't help sighing, now there are seven brothers and sisters, and her four sisters are the most worried, but who can blame her, it's not her fourth sister who chose it herself.
"Mom, don't worry about this. It's useless for us to worry about it, and we can't force my fourth aunt to do what we want, right? β
After speaking, seeing the sad face on his mother's face, he sighed in his heart and said directly: "I'll ask him if I'm free for a while, if you want to be a good Gao Wuyuan, what kind of big deal will you do, I don't want to care about him for the time being." If I could listen to the advice, I had thought about it earlier, and planned to let my fourth aunt's family follow my uncle's example, and open a trading company that mainly sells non-staple food or daily necessities. Most of the non-staple food we sell in the supermarket is supplied by my uncle, and most of the daily necessities are supplied by other small trading companies, and some of them are pulled back from the manufacturer by my father and second uncle. β
"But that doesn't make sense for your uncle, does it? Your uncle's company should also be able to sell daily necessities, and although our supermarket is large, it shouldn't be able to sell much in a day. β
As soon as she heard this, Yu Mingyue knew that her mother was a layman.
"Hehe, don't worry, my uncle can't be busy just dealing in non-staple food. And the company is not exclusively for us, the city's three districts and two counties of the commissary is not old and young, besides, at present we are only one supermarket, but next year I will let our 'Xingyueyan supermarket' in the three districts and two counties have a branch each. Not only that, but when the funds can be transferred, the surrounding downtown areas of the city will be bustling. There will also be a joint venture between our three 'Xingyueyan Supermarket'. β
"Ah, so many?" Kong Xiaoyu exclaimed. stared at Yu Mingyue incredulously, but in an instant. Her eyes were wet. She really didn't expect that this daughter, who was desperately thinking about how to make more money every day, would have such a big plan in her heart. It's so tiring.
"Mom, why are you crying?" Yu Mingyue really couldn't understand what a good thing this was, how could it cause her mother to shed tears.
Kong Xiaoyu hurriedly wiped her eyes before she smiled: "Hehe, I'm so happy, my daughter is so capable, and my mother is happy." "Too sad after a pause. Touching Yu Mingyue's head, she persuaded: "Xiaoyue, how tired you are to open so many stores." Earlier, in order to manage the family's farm orchard and the business of collecting mountain goods and agricultural and sideline products, you have been so busy in the past few years that you have no time to stay at home for a day; Since you said you were going to open this supermarket, you haven't had a day off for most of the year.
Listen to your mother, you are still young now, you can't be so tired, look at how tired you have been all these years. The top of the head is above my mother's ears, but there are not a few taels of flesh on my body, and I have lost a lot of meat in the past two months. Don't you often say that money is inexhaustible, and now our family is considered rich. When school starts, you can stay in school and take care of business on weekends. We adults will take care of these business things, and we can open a few supermarkets in the past few years. If you want to develop, you can wait until you finish college, okay? β
The more Kong Xiaoyu spoke, the more sad she felt. Although she knows that her daughter is actually an adult, this small body is a time when she needs to rest well to grow well. She wanted to take care of her daughter a few years ago. Let her daughter grow up happily, but she seems to have done a dereliction of duty.
"Mom, I don't really feel tired, and I like it now. It's true. Yu Mingyue smiled happily. She really likes this rhythm of making money, and only when she works hard to become stronger and stronger, can she feel safe and at ease, and only then can she really protect her relatives well.
Seeing that Kong Xiaoyu was still unhappy, he held Kong Xiaoyu's hand and said coquettishly: "Actually, I think grandparents and fathers are really tired." I thought, this time the shop on the side of Changshou Road is repaired, and grandparents and grandfathers will not be allowed to visit the store, they have been busy for most of their lives, and it is time to enjoy the blessings of their children and grandchildren. Two years later, the family house was rebuilt and built into a large villa, and the grandparents in the government compound also moved in to be their companions, the grandmothers talked and chatted on weekdays, the grandfathers played chess and fished, and when they were bored, they could also feed the animals in the orchard.
Hey, Mom, do you think that's good? β
Kong Xiaoyu controlled the true love, grinned happily and said: "Hehe, good, mother knows that you are the most filial and good child, mother is very happy, and the elders will be happy when they hear your idea." β
"Hehe, I think that grandpa and they will definitely be happy, grandpa is the most idle, but my second cousin, uh, hehe, no, when the second cousin and the second uncle get married this year, I should call her second aunt. When the second aunt gives birth to a child, my grandfather will not be bored.
Also, I plan to ask my father and second uncle to stop doing vegetable wholesale business, and it is too tiring to get up early and collect vegetables and then pull them to the farmers' wholesale market every day. I think my father and my second uncle partnered to open a logistics company that helps people transport goods is the most suitable and more profitable, although they have to be busy for two years at the beginning, but after the company is on the right track, the company's employees will do the transportation of goods, and my dad will be able to make it a lot easier.
At that time, my father will also have time to spend more time with you, and then it would be nice to give birth to a younger brother or sister to my big dragon Xiaolong. β
Kong Xiaoyu, who was getting more and more sad, suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, and slapped Yu Mingyue on the buttocks.
"You girl, the more you talk about it, the more you don't have a score, how old are your father and me, and what kind of children do you have?" Kong Xiaoyu's face was a little red, the daughter in front of her, who was only 12 years old in the eyes of outsiders, had the thoughts of an adult, and was mentioned by her daughter to have a child with her husband Yu Zhiqing, Kong Xiaoyu really felt very embarrassed. (To be continued......)
