On September 1, Xu Ke and the two sisters officially became glorious primary school students, and the school was not far from their new home, but only a few hundred meters.

On September 2, the supermarket was replaced with a new signboard, and the "Coke Convenience Store" was officially opened.

Xu Dong has no experience in selling things in his past or present life, and he is not interested in running a convenience store.

Dad Xu is different, he has had the experience of setting up a stall before, and he himself can't be idle at home, so he has long wanted to show his talents, so he took over the position of store manager.

Xu Dong reluctantly took out most of the truckload of goods from the underground warehouse, mainly various clothing, local products, tobacco, alcohol and sugar.

Coupled with half a cart of fresh produce and a cart of daily necessities from a wholesaler, the convenience store was finally propped up.

On the opening day, Xu's father painted a scoop according to the gourd, not only placed arches and flower baskets in front of the gate, but also found an advertising company to print leaflets, and hired people to distribute them in several surrounding communities.

The sales performance on the first day was very good, because it was a loss to gain popularity, the main fresh products were sold cleanly, and other goods were also sold well.

But in the next few days, the performance was not good, and it has been tepid, with a turnover of about 5,000 yuan per day, which made Xu's father sigh anxiously.

After all, the monthly rent of the store is 20,000 yuan, which is really unaffordable.

Later, in order to save expenses, Xu's father simply dismissed the only tally clerk.

Xu Dong couldn't help but persuade, but not only was it useless, but he was also arrested and accompanied by Xu's father to and from work every day.

……

Time cannot be seen or touched, and when you are not paying attention, it has quietly passed by you.

In two days, the New Year's Day of 2022 will be approaching, and there are only more than forty days left before the outbreak of the Great Solar Flare.

Dad Xu's face has improved a lot recently.

After three months of exploration and summary, throughout December, "Coke Convenience Store" finally turned a profit.

In order to cope with the peak sales before the year, the store once again hired a tally clerk.

The biggest contributor to this turnaround is definitely Xu Dong, who found the "fist product" for the convenience store by mistake.

In the past three months, Xu Dong certainly won't let himself be chained to a convenience store, he always finds various reasons to "take leave" and then continue his hoarding business.

Relying on the 1 million yuan from the sale of houses in Luyang and the 2.45 million from the sale of diamond rings, his bank account once again exceeded 5 million.

With money in hand, Xu Dong became active again, often driving his own small truck to and from the rural areas around Yanjing.

After receiving a few local chickens, ducks, and eggs, he came up with the idea of selling these agricultural products at his convenience store.

First, you can find an excuse for yourself to sweep goods in the countryside;

Secondly... Well, there's no second, and there's no harm in trying anyway, you can't lose a few bucks.

After obtaining Xu's father's consent, the "Coke Convenience Store" was transformed into a specialty store for agricultural products such as local chickens and eggs.

Because all the agricultural products are purchased by Xu Dong from the mountainous countryside with unremitting efforts, and the quality is guaranteed, the "Coke Convenience Store" has gradually gained a bit of fame in the surrounding communities.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the streets of Yanjing in winter were bitterly cold, and Xu Dong drove over to pick up Xu's father home.

As soon as he got in the car, Dad Xu couldn't wait to instruct: "That native egg, can you send a little more, every time it is so little, it will be sold out before noon." ”

"Okay, I'll run away tomorrow." Xu Dong agreed.

He usually goes to the countryside for a day or two, and at most for three or four days, but this time he plans to go farther, because there are still bad things in the vast mountainous areas.

"Today's turnover has exceeded 20,000, and this store is really open." Dad Xu's face couldn't hide his joy.

Xu Dong patted a little fart: "It's all your credit, Dad." ”

Dad Xu waved his hand, he was still self-aware, "I can't rely on me, you young people still have brains and ideas." ”

"Dad, shall we go back to Luyang for the Chinese New Year this year?" It was difficult to answer these words, so Xu Dong quickly changed the topic.

"Not back." Dad Xu shook his head and explained: "Dabao, they are too young, let's celebrate the New Year in Yanjing this year, there is no need to toss back and forth." ”

"Okay, I'll ask my mother to prepare more New Year's goods and send them back......"

Chatting and chatting and getting home.

After parking the car, as soon as the father and son walked into the restaurant, Yang Lina asked: "Dad, today the express delivery delivered a hundred boxes of milk powder, is the milk powder in the store selling well recently?" ”

"What milk powder?" Dad Xu was confused, "Our family doesn't sell milk powder." ”

Xu Dong immediately jumped out and explained: "I ordered the milk powder. ”

"Why do you buy so much powder? Dabao, they can't finish drinking it for ten years! Yang Lina covered her forehead and said.

"If you can't finish drinking, you can take it to the store to sell, I buy imported good milk powder, and I don't have to worry about sales at all, and I'm reluctant to sell it!"

Xu Dong didn't lie this time, these milk powders were specially purchased from abroad by a large supplier before, specifically to give back to major customers.

This milk powder is also a big brand abroad, and it has always been in short supply, Xu Dong deliberately asked the other party to leave a hundred boxes, which saved a lot of trouble.

After all, there are three babies at home, and milk powder is definitely indispensable.

In his previous life, because of malnutrition, the triplets became worse and worse, and finally left eternal regrets.

Hearing this, Yang Lina's confidence weakened a lot, and she complained in a low voice:

"You don't have to buy so much at once?"

Xu Dong said angrily: "Do you think I want to?" The quantity is less, and people don't sell it, which is a hot commodity. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Ma came out with the dishes and said:

"Don't say anything, hurry up and wash your hands and eat, but they are already hungry."

Dad Xu immediately echoed: "Nana, you don't have to worry too much, imported milk powder is still very good, I will take a box to the store tomorrow to sell it." ”

"Don't rush to sell just yet." Xu Dong hurriedly stopped: "The Chinese New Year will be next month, and I still have to give away milk powder, and it's not too late to sell it after the year." ”

In the future, milk powder will become more and more rare, and if it is not subject to the expiration date, Xu Dong will definitely hoard a high mountain of milk powder.

"Okay." Dad Xu nodded.

Yang Lina finally reminded: "Be sure to pay attention to the expiration time, don't forget, a box costs thousands of yuan!" ”

"Got it."

……

For dinner, I had air-dried chicken hot pot.

The chicken is the local chicken purchased by Xu Dong from the countryside, and it can't be sold in the convenience store, so it was taken back by Xu's mother to make air-dried chicken, which can be sold to nearby local restaurants after it is done.

In this way, after several months of accumulation, the yard is now full of all kinds of air-dried chickens, ducks and fish, and roughly calculated, the number is at least five or six hundred.

Xu Dong heard from his wife that Xu's mother could earn more than 10,000 yuan of private money every month by selling dry goods, which made Xu's father envious.

Who let his house live in a courtyard, the owner of the local restaurant came in and saw it, and felt that the old lady was a real person.

With trust, this sales will naturally not be bad.
