Chapter 150 The Cake Shop Opens
Cui Changjia thought for a while and said, "Then I'll deal with the things on hand and then go talk to him. If he's just talking, then we can think of other ways. At worst, we can use the factory and the company to borrow money together and see how much we can borrow."

The main reason is that Cui Changjia wants to get that batch of goods back. If there is any delay, many equipment and electrical appliances will become unusable.

There are still a lot of furniture in there. When the time comes, I can clean them out and sell them at a discount and get some money back.

Zhou Qingyan originally had no hope for Cui Changjia's reply. Just when he was about to turn off his phone, he suddenly saw an unread message on QQ. There were only four words on it: OK, good night.

These four short words kept Zhou Qingyan awake for half the night… They’ve been in contact for a few months now, and after making a lot of efforts both overtly and covertly, there was finally a response.

Cui Changjia also stayed awake most of the night, but she was thinking about Fang Pengcheng.

After thinking for a long time, Cui Changjia finally came up with a solution which was to let Zhao Ting know that Fang Pengcheng had behaved inappropriately outside, and then Zhao Lei would stop caring about Fang Pengcheng in anger.

However, Cui Changjia was not sure whether Zhao Lei and Fang Pengcheng would fall out over this, as their ties were too deep.

Cui Changjia was having a headache thinking about it. This time she had no idea what to do. If she missed this opportunity, she didn't know when she would have such an opportunity again.

She could only hope that Fang Pengcheng was infected with a heart disease and let Zhao Ting find out for herself.
It is already late December in the Gregorian calendar, and Chang Ying's cake shop has been in trial operation for a week before it is officially opening.

The date happened to be the first day of the winter solstice.

The operation of a fast-moving consumer goods store is different from that of a company. If the opening is done well and a good impression is left on people, it will be of great help to future business.

Although all kinds of desserts for tasting, cakes for the event, and breads were prepared the day before, Chang Ying was still very nervous.

She rented an apartment in Hengmao International and moved in. Cui Changjia did not leave that night and slept with her.

Cui Changjia comforted her, "It has been a week since the trial operation, and everyone's response has been very good. The opening will not be bad."

Chang Ying was nervous herself, and no matter how Cui Changjia tried to comfort her, it was useless. She was so nervous that she couldn't fall asleep until eleven or twelve o'clock.

Cui Changjia simply stopped comforting her and covered his head and went to sleep.

Everything will rise and fall, and everything will turn into the opposite when it reaches its extreme. If you are too nervous, you will no longer be nervous.

No matter how worried or anxious you are, the sun will rise as usual.

The next day arrived as scheduled, and Miss Ying's cake shop was about to open.

They arrived at the store on time at eight o'clock. The four shop assistants and a cake maker hired by Chang Ying were already there.

They first moved the balloon arch that they had prepared in advance and fixed it, then laid out the red carpet, pasted up the couplets with the words "Good luck in opening the business", put up the promotional slogans such as the roll-up banners and KT boards made from the advertising shop, and set out the firecrackers.
Then, we wait for the auspicious time to arrive and then light the firecrackers.

As a result, when it was time to light the firecrackers, Chang Ying could not be found.

The clerk Xiao Lu anxiously told Cui Changjia that he couldn't find the boss. Cui Changjia hurried to look for him, and finally found Chang Ying hiding in a corner in the backyard.

"Why are you hiding here?" Cui Changjia pulled her out.

Chang Ying looked frustrated, with guilt in her eyes, "Chang Jia, I can't do it, I'm scared!"

She didn't feel anything when she was busy, but when she stopped to set off firecrackers, she suddenly got scared. She was afraid that the business would be bad, that she would disappoint Changjia's expectations of her, that she was not cut out for business, that she would disappoint her dreams, and that if she failed this time, she would never have the courage to stand up again!
Cui Changjia held Chang Ying's arm and said, "We had sales during the trial operation, how can we be worse after the official opening?"

"I know, I know everything," Chang Ying's eyes welled up with tears, "but I'm just scared!"

Cui Changjia hugged Chang Ying, somewhat regretting her carelessness last night. She forgot that her growth was the result of more than ten or twenty years of experience, but Chang Ying was forced to change by her!
Cui Changjia let go of Chang Ying and said seriously, "Chang Ying, with me here, you don't have to worry even if the cake shop loses money. I'm your backup! I have my own company now. If you really have nothing to do, you can go to my company to enjoy the air conditioning and drink tea. You don't have to do anything and you can get a high salary. Is that okay?"

Originally, when Chang Ying first heard Cui Changjia say "I'm here", she was quite moved, but when she heard what Cui Changjia said later, she couldn't help laughing again, "Am I such a waste?"

Cui Changjia smiled, "Boss Chang is not afraid anymore?"

Chang Ying took a breath and said, "You said so. If my shop can't continue, you will support me!"

"Yes, I said so!" Cui Changjia pushed Chang Ying out, "I mean what I said. Let's go and light the cannon!"

Amid the sound of firecrackers, Chang Ying looked at the shop sign amidst the fireworks, her eyes welling with tears again. But she was not afraid, because she still had Chang Jia. She was not afraid!
All fears and worries come from your own wild imagination. Everything will be fine if you forget about them when you are busy.

After lighting the firecrackers, Chang Ying was pushed by Cui Changjia to distribute flyers.

The store has a store manager, who is Qiu Rong, a colleague that Chang Ying poached from the store where she used to work.

Qiu Rong is chubby, but he has a cheerful personality, is eloquent and very capable.

There were too many talented people in her previous store, and Qiu Rong was not prominent, so when Chang Ying asked her to come and be the store manager, she came without much hesitation.

In fact, because of the publicity for the previous trial operation and the discounts for today’s opening, plus the tasting activities for the opening, the popularity of the store seems to be good.

When you first open a business, don’t focus on sales, as long as it’s popular, that’s good enough.

Cui Changjia quietly called Jiang Fanghan and Sun Yadi and asked them to invite people over to add to the crowd.

When Sun Yadi heard that the store was opened by Cui Changjia's friend, she called all five or six employees from her company down.

Jiang Fanghan even ordered two large flower baskets and placed them in front of the store.

The bakery is offering 20% ​​off during the first three days of opening.

Chang Ying originally said that there would be a 40% discount for the opening, but Cui Changjia asked her not to offer such a low discount, otherwise once the price returned to the original price, the price difference would be huge, and customers would feel uncomfortable after seeing it, and their desire to buy would decrease.

Cui Changjia also gave Chang Ying a suggestion which was to take out two products for long-term promotion and not think about making money from these two products.

Chang Ying finally took out a waterless egg cake for the promotion, which was 5.1 yuan each, and a Black Forest dessert, which was 6.6 yuan each.

The salt in the store usually costs one dollar per bag, or a little more than one dollar per bag.

There was a seafood store that sold salt for 80 cents a bag. Not only did they not make any money, they even lost money. However, when people came to buy things, they saw that the salt was so cheap and thought that other things were also cheap, so they bought them with confidence.

In fact, this is just a marketing trick. If this doesn’t make money, there are other things that can make money. And the more customers you have, the more prosperous your business will be!

After closing the store at night, Chang Ying counted the sales in the drawer and almost jumped for joy; the total was more than four hundred yuan!
