Early the next morning, Yang Xuan and Miss Guan signed a contract.
Since then, the shop in Qinhuaihe has been the property of Weijixian Noodle House.
At the same time, there were three thousand taels more in the account.
After signing the contract, Yang Xuan and the three of them held a meeting.
There are three items on the meeting agenda.
The first item is the renovation of the Qinhuaihe branch. According to Yang Xuan's requirements, the decoration style must be unified, so that it can have the momentum of a chain store.
Another point is that it needs to be fast, even if it costs a little more money.
After all, time is money. The sooner the renovation is completed, the sooner you can start making money.
The second item is to start planning for other branches.
Judging from the fact that they already have more than 3,000 taels of silver in their account, they can probably open five or six branches at once.
However, due to manpower constraints, they had to temporarily plan two branches.
The locations of the two branches were decided by Yang Xuan in the east of the city.
Originally, the shop in the east of the city was difficult to manage, but with Guan Yunrong joining, the situation immediately became different.
After all, they are a large family that has been doing business for generations, and they have some connections in various aspects. There are also people in the Guan family who are officials in Yingtian Mansion. Although they are only of the sixth rank, they can be considered to have some connections in the court.
This is the foundation of a wealthy family.
With this level of status, it is much easier to talk about business. This is what these people are like. When face is in place, money is not a problem.
This task was given to Guan Yunrong. In addition, the task of recruiting people was also given to her.
Public relations department, marketing department and human resources department, three departments work together.
Shopkeeper Zhou is still responsible for the operation of the main store. The tables and chairs on the second floor have also arrived. Once the tables and chairs are placed, the turnover will usher in another wave of growth.
And Yang Xuan is responsible for the renovation and renovation of the Qinhuaihe branch, as well as maneuvering, and he will go wherever he is busy.
The third item is called corporate culture.
It was the first time for Guan Yunrong and Shopkeeper Zhou to hear this word, and they both looked at a loss.
Yang Xuan told them that the first thing to do is service. This service must be streamlined. From the time the guest comes in to the time he leaves, what the waiter has to do is clearly listed in each item. There is a long list of words written on a piece of paper.
A bunch.
Then it is necessary to cultivate a sense of belonging among the clerks and make them proud of the store.
This is easy to do. After all, except for a few apprentices, everyone else is a slave. From the government's point of view, these people are Yang Xuan's private property and can be disposed of at will. They don't have a sense of belonging.
no.
Furthermore, Yang Xuan proposed that although these people were slaves, they would still be paid wages, and if they worked for five years, they could be freed from slavery.
This is called hope. With hope, people can develop extraordinary abilities.
The two of them were confused by this corporate culture. Although they didn't quite understand it, they felt that what Yang Xuan said made sense.
Although a lot was said, the meeting was not long. It was less than half an hour. Yang Xuan kept emphasizing efficiency, and after finishing the matter, he immediately split up to take action.
Guan Yunrong felt fresh and enriched by this.
Unlike the family business, everything is discussed in a leisurely manner. Even the biggest matters need to be discussed for a whole day, as if not doing so would not make the matter serious. Everyone pays attention to calmness. In their eyes,
Come on, if you have no faults, you have merit.
But Yang Xuan was different here. Not only did he assign tasks, he also limited the time.
Let her go to Yachang today to buy shoes and the slaves will come back. Tomorrow, these slaves will start practicing in the main store. When the Qinhuaihe branch opens, they will start working directly.
Yang Xuan, on the other hand, found a master craftsman and went to the Qinhuaihe branch to explain things, and basically everything was fine.
After thinking about it, I decided to go home. I haven’t been home for a month.
After tidying up a little and buying some more things, we headed to Jiangning County.
The entire capital city of Tianfu is roughly bounded by Shangyuan County in the north and Jiangning County in the south. Yang Xuan's home is in the southwest of Jiangning County, and the Qinhuai River is in the southeast.
Before I reached the door, I saw my little niece Xuanxuan sitting at the door of the yard crying from a distance.
Yang Xuan quickly ran over and picked up Xuanxuan: "Xuanxuan, why are you crying?"
Just as he finished speaking, he heard a clanging sound coming from inside, which should be the sound of something like an earthen jar breaking.
Yang Xuan hugged Xuanxuan and entered the courtyard.
Bang, another sound.
Yang Xuan saw his elder sister-in-law with her hands on her hips, pointing at his elder brother's nose and scolding him.
"You are just a loser. You said that all these years I have been married to you, I have been in charge of everything inside and outside, and I have never enjoyed a single day of happiness. Now my mother-in-law has asked me for help, but it turns out that you are fine, even five taels of silver
If you can’t even take it out, what do you think you’re good for?”
Facing the accusations and scoldings from his sister-in-law, the eldest brother sat on the stone pillar beside him and remained silent.
But the more silent the eldest brother was, the more excited the sister-in-law became, almost spitting on the eldest brother's face.
Yang Xuan sighed but said nothing, because he knew very well that it was difficult for an upright official to settle household matters. When a couple quarreled, no one could persuade them to do it. The most likely reason was that good intentions led to bad things.
He could only take out the snacks he brought from Yingtian Mansion and coax Xuanxuan.
But when the sister-in-law caught a glimpse of Yang Xuan, her anger seemed to have found a new outlet.
"Tell me about you. It's okay if you don't have the ability. We, my mother-in-law, have to endure hardships with you. However, your family has a drag on you. You are a teenager. Not only can you not help the family, but you also have to support him. You said, these days
How can we survive?”
The eldest brother originally lowered his head and did not see Yang Xuan. After hearing what his sister-in-law said, he looked up and saw that his brother was indeed back. He quickly stood up and walked towards Yang Xuan.
"Brother, you're back. It's been a month. How are you doing?"
Yang Xuan put on a smile: "Okay, big brother, I'm doing very well. Look at me, I've become fat."
"That's good, that's good. You said you've been away for a month and haven't even sent a letter back. What's the matter with your sudden return today?"
Relatives are relatives, they don't care how you are doing, they only care about how well you live.
But before Yang Xuan could say anything, his sister-in-law said angrily: "What can happen to him when he comes back? You see, he's so full of money that he can't survive outside."
Yang Xuan smiled bitterly. The big and small bags he had packed were all gifts for them. Unexpectedly, they were misunderstood.
But he didn't bother to explain. Talking to someone like Dasou would be a waste of time.
But the eldest brother suddenly got angry: "What are you talking about? This is my brother, a real brother. So what if I can't survive? There are half my brothers in this family."
The eldest brother was born with a strong personality, and this roar was like a thunderbolt in the air, which immediately made the sister-in-law jump, and she did not dare to speak for a while.
But that was all the big brother said. After yelling, he pulled Yang Xuan out of the door.
After going out, I heard my sister-in-law yelling and cursing inside again.
"Brother, if things don't go well outside, you should come back. If your sister-in-law does this again, I... I will divorce her."
