Chapter 29: New Employees and Customers
Liang Hu didn't see it, got up to help Bai Yan arrange it, then opened the white wine bottle, and poured it for himself and Lu Feiming without asking.
"That, Brother Liang, I don't know how to drink." Bai Yan blushed and whispered.
"It's okay, you just behave, after all, today is a good day for you and Lu Feiming. Hahaha..."
As soon as one sentence came out, Bai Yan even turned red at the base of her neck. Lu Feiming frowned, and said in his heart Liang Hu, this guy really can't speak, what is a good life for me and Bai Yan, this is to open a store and not to get married.
However, he didn't bother with Liang Hu, just ate and drank, and the three of them chatted, mainly listening to Liang Hu.
Slowly, Liang Hu's topic changed and asked Lu Feiming: "Brother Lu, I see that you have a lot of place here, but as far as the two of you are concerned, I guess you can't be busy, right?" ”
Lu Feiming nodded, he didn't care about this problem at first, judging from the opening on the first day today, it seems that he really needs to recruit two people to help with chores.
Otherwise, once there are many guests in the future, he and Bai Yan will really be a little too busy. Besides, Bai Yan has nothing to do now, and she has just opened her business, so she is here to help.
After a while, Bai Yan's mother will have surgery, and if he is ready to open his own restaurant, he will be the only one left.
"Or brother, I'll recommend someone to you, and you've seen it too."
"I've seen it?" Lu Feiming felt more and more strange.
"Well, there was a guy fighting with you about something that day, one of his bodyguards. I felt that the surname Sun was not a thing, so I quit my job after I went back.
Later, he came to me to apologize and asked me to help introduce a job. I think others are okay, don't you just confirm it here? ”
After hearing this, Lu Feiming couldn't help frowning slightly, thought about it and said:
"He doesn't know how to do it, can't he help him when he comes?"
"Hey, then you will underestimate people, although Chen Gang doesn't understand your antique business, you can leave other things to him to do. I vouch for you, you can't be wrong. ”
"What are the conditions for the salary?" Lu Feiming asked cautiously.
"Food, shelter, 5,000 yuan a month. That's not too much of a request, is it? ”
After sending Liang Hu away and taking care of the gate of the small courtyard, Lu Feiming sent Bai Yan to the bus station again, and then went back to rest by himself.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next day Lu Feiming had just opened the door of the store and was about to open for business, and a man about twenty-seven or eighteen years old was standing at the door.
Medium height, slightly dark skin, flat haircut, looks quite honest. But there is a shrewdness in his eyes, and he always likes to use his afterglow when looking at things, and it is all a flash.
Carrying a large army-green travel backpack on his back, he looked like he had just come from out of town to find a job.
Seeing Lu Feiming open the door, the visitor hurriedly stepped forward and shouted:
"The owner is early. My name is Chen Gang, and Brother Hu asked me to come to work with you. ”
"You are Chen Gang?" Lu Feiming was slightly stunned, a person that Liang Hu introduced to himself last night, but he didn't expect to come early this morning.
Originally, Lu Feiming was going to recruit people, but Liang Hu introduced him, and he was embarrassed to refuse, mainly because he didn't want to offend Liang Hu, but he didn't expect to come to the door automatically this morning.
After letting Chen Gang into the courtyard, Lu Feiming did not rush to open the door, first looked at the other party's documents to determine that it was the person Liang Hu said, and then took Chen Gang to the backyard.
I agreed with Liang Hu before, and I would come to eat and live with a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan. Now Lu Feiming has no shortage of houses here, and the backyard is still somewhat empty for him alone.
After arranging Chen Gang's accommodation, he took him back to the front yard and briefly explained some things, mainly precautions and some treatment issues, as well as work and rest time.
Then Lu Feiming officially opened for business, there were not many customers on Qingshi Street in the morning, Lu Feiming made a pot of tea and sat in the outermost east wing room to read a book, which mainly sells some cultural toys.
Usually as long as a guest enters the door, this is the first thing you can see. The newly opened 'Juyouzhai' has a plaque with a name, and a small wooden notice indicating the scope of business.
In addition to the cultural toys, it is mainly engaged in antique calligraphy and painting, and also acquires antiques, and also helps people to identify. The main Lu Feiming thought that he didn't have much business at the beginning, and he already had a certain ability to identify.
There is no capital for this thing, and it can also increase some income. Maybe you may come across a good product, and you can also collect it and resell it.
In the courtyard, Chen Gang put down his salute, changed his clothes, and came out to sweep the courtyard, and after finishing these, he went to clean up the sanitary tables and chairs in several other rooms.
Lu Feiming looked at it and nodded silently, feeling that this person was not bad, quite diligent. However, it will still take a while to observe before deciding whether to really stay. He had agreed with Liang Hu before, if it was not suitable, he could let Chen Gang go at any time.
At about ten o'clock in the morning, the flow of people on Qingshi Street gradually increased, because it was a newly opened store, and people would come in from time to time to take a look, but there were many people who saw it, but few people bought it.
In one morning, only two strings of olive pit carved bracelets were sold, and the turnover was only more than 1,000 yuan. At noon, he and Chen Gang ordered takeout, and after a simple meal, let Chen Gang watch in front, Lu Feiming went to the tea room of the hall by himself, and now leaned on the sofa for a while to close his eyes and recuperate.
Recently, he has been busy opening a store, and his body is indeed a little tired. As a result, as soon as he lay down, he heard movement outside, and when he got up, Chen Gang led an old man and a young man to the antique exhibition hall on the west side.
Lu Feiming knew that it was a guest, so he hurriedly got up to greet him. After all, Chen just came, he didn't understand these things, and Lu Feiming had to come in person to receive guests to discuss business.
After saying hello to the old man, he asked Chen Gang to continue to look at the store at the door, and let the two of them into the house to signal for a casual visit. The old man didn't say a word, but walked around the room with a smile on his face, looking around but not paying attention to the antiques on display here.
Only I was a little interested in the bamboo root carved pen holder carved by Zhu Sansong in the Ming Dynasty, but even so, the old man didn't ask about the price or anything.
After looking around, the old man looked at Lu Feiming and asked with a smile: "Boss, I saw the notice hanging at the door that said that you can take customers for identification, I don't know how to charge?" ”
"Oh, yes. If it is an ordinary antique cultural relic, the appraisal fee is 200 yuan per piece, and if it is a valuable thing, it depends on the value of the item.
In general, the fee is 0.5 per cent of the market value of the item. If there is a mistake in the appraisal, the appraisal fee will be refunded and the compensation will be doubled. ”
