437: Chapter 426: Taking Over the Store 437: Chapter 426: Taking Over the Store Yue Feng shook his head, “Nothing can be done about it, let those people on the internet curse if they want to, a fierce life needs no explanation!
There’s no need to involve public relations in this matter either.
Haven’t you said before?
Critics are still fans, and since it has co to this, we are guilt-free!
Besides, most people still have the ability to discern right from wrong, let’s just wait and see.”
“Oh!
Alright then!”
“By the way, there’s sothing big I need to tell you!”
“What is it?”
“I’ve taken over a dium-sized fishing gear shop in the downtown area!”
“What?
You took over a shop?
Weren’t you at Hua School this morning, when did this happen!?” Ken’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Yue Feng succinctly explained the general situation, and the astonishnt in Ken’s eyes finally settled down.
“You’ve spent all your savings, so you don’t have much money on hand now, do you need support?”
Ken’s focus was different from other people’s, his first thought wasn’t about how the fishing gear shop was doing, but rather concerned about whether Yue Feng’s lack of savings would affect his life.
Yue Feng shook his head, “I don’t need it for now, I was too busy today and haven’t formally taken over the shop; I’ll do it first thing tomorrow morning.
The shop has a healthy profit model, and there will soon be revenue flowing in!
It won’t be long before I have full control over the shop’s situation.
This is our family business, and you are the future lady boss.
Stick with , and you’ll live the good life!”
“Cut it out, you rascal, always coaxing .
Let’s not chat for now, you better go to rest early!”
“Alright!”
…
After hanging up the phone, Ken set his cellphone aside, his heart pounding intensely.
Logically, a deal worth hundreds of thousands wouldn’t be considered a large amount for Ken, who had more than that in her own little treasury.
But Yue Feng’s words, “our family business, and you are the lady boss” had a trendous impact on her, making her heart race with excitent.
…
The next morning, Yue Feng got up on ti at five thirty, washed up, had breakfast, and by six thirty, he was driving to the new shop again.
During a conversation with Brother Zhang yesterday, Yue Feng learned about the shop’s staff situation besides Brother Zhang and his wife, there were two other employees, as the variety of tasks like inventory managent, wholesale, and packing couldn’t be handled by just two people.
Having agreed to start work normally this morning, Yue Feng arrived at the shop a bit earlier than planned.
The product range and layout of the dium-sized fishing gear shop were definitely more robust than those of the small shops in town, offering a dazzling array of products, and for the sa type of product, there was even a choice of different styles—simply put, there were high, dium, and low-end products to suit every taste.
The incident was sudden, and there had been no changes to the shop’s arrangent.
Yue Feng carefully toured the place, finding hardly any constructive conflicts.
While wandering around the shop, Yue Feng pondered the future directions of developnt.
To be honest, although he understood the operation and profit model of a dium-sized shop, he had no practical experience.
Having spent so much money, with so much stock still in the warehouse, there’s an urgent need to brainstorm and change the current situation as much as possible.
At this point, soone might ask, wasn’t the profit model very stable, guaranteeing no losses?
Then why start worrying again?
Just keep operating normally according to the old ways, right?
That would work, as operating in the usual manner currently poses no significant risks.
However, the overall situation in the fishing gear industry has begun to change, with online sales greatly impacting various physical stores, and the fishing gear industry is no exception.
If inventory isn’t adjusted and reduced in ti, there might be a risk of the “at in our mouths” spoiling or even partial losses.
While in the midst of brainstorming various considerations, his phone suddenly received a morning greeting ssage blast from Self-happy Pot’s Little Zhao.
Seeing Little Zhao’s WeChat na, Yue Feng slapped his forehead, how could he have forgotten this!
After all, he was a bona fide fishing livestrear!
If he could promote other products, he could surely promote fishing gear products, most of which he had full control over as existing stock.
A bold idea gradually took shape in Yue Feng’s mind.
At seven in the morning, the store’s forr staff mbers, Aunt Yun and her husband, rushed to the store together.
Aunt Yun and her husband were from the Northeast, in their forties, and were distantly related to Big Brother Zhang’s wife.
They had been working in the store for seven or eight years.
The couple were honest people who worked diligently and had never made a mistake.
Usually, when restocking took place and the store owner was not around, Aunt Yun could also take calls and handle invoices.
Yue Feng was familiar with her.
“Aunt Yun, Uncle Li!
You’re here!” Yue Feng greeted them eagerly as soon as they entered.
“Hey big brother, your help is already settled.
Old Zhang has told us everything over the phone.
Don’t worry, as long as you still need us, we’ll keep helping out in the store!
If you have other arrangents, we can also look for other jobs, as long as you ensure a smooth transition of the shop, then we can leave our positions for you.”
Aunt Yun might not be well-educated, but she spoke very appropriately, getting straight to the point.
Yue Feng certainly couldn’t manage such a big store by himself, and the store would definitely need to hire people.
Aunt Yun and her husband were experienced and familiar with the store’s products; Yue Feng would not let them go no matter what!
“With your words, I feel reassured!
I won’t only keep you, but I will also give you a raise and a promotion!
I have to manage the livestreaming platform as well, spending a lot of ti outside.
The store’s operations can’t lack you!
Two people are not enough, I’ll go to the job market later to hire two more!
Let’s continue to operate this store together!
I’m appointing you as the temporary store manager, Aunt Yun, directly under my supervision!
Base salary increased by a thousand per month, perform well, and a year-end bonus based on sales revenue will be given!”
“Isn’t that a bit too much?
The salary Old Zhang used to pay us wasn’t low!”
“It’s not too much.
As long as there are no issues with the store operations, this amount is a trivial matter!”
When it cos to treatnt, Yue Feng was not stingy at all.
To foster high motivation, he knew he needed to make sure his employees were well-fed, a point where he was much stronger than most of the asly small business owners.
“Alright, I’m familiar with the business of the store.
Everyday I’ll organize the managent books for you, I absolutely won’t drop the ball!
Old Zhang said, if there’s anything you don’t understand, just call him!” Aunt Yun committed.
They were just holding a simple eting when the store’s landline rang.
With a start, Aunt Yun saw the caller ID showing a familiar number, she picked it up and switched into work mode.
While communicating with the other party, she click-clacked away at the computer, swiftly logging a distributor’s shipping order, working crisply and efficiently.
Catching a glimpse of Aunt Yun working efficiently out of the corner of his eye, Yue Feng couldn’t help but daydream, when suddenly a system notification sounded in his mind.
