Rise was very happy because she had made friends, and someone who was as nervous as her was also very happy, so the two of them started planning how to play this enjoyable place in front of Natsuki.
school festival.
Neither of them had any burdens. The class held something similar to a reading club. It seemed that because there were students who were not very interested in the school festival, someone took the initiative to take on the responsibility of guarding the classroom, so Rishi didn't have to worry about her own class.
You can also do activities, it’s very easy.
As for Itsuka, she is a member of the school discipline committee and has the responsibility of inspecting the school, so generally she does not participate in class or club activities. But now she obviously wants to use the excuse of inspecting the school with Rise to have fun everywhere
, so there is no need to worry about her position.
So it's still a bit strange to say that Rishi hasn't made any friends before.
Because there was no one here except the two of them, Xia Zhi heard their communication very clearly. They made a plan and stood up from their chairs.
"Then, let's go play?"
"Um."
Rishi nodded and looked at Xia Zhi again: "Senior, are you going with us?"
"I can't go anyway, right? You can just go and play by yourself."
They became good friends and went out to play together. Xia Zhi was not uninterested enough to get together at this time. What's more, it was still working time and it was not a situation where he could go out to play.
Xia Zhi remembered something.
"By the way, Rishi, can you do me a favor?"
"What's up?"
Xia Zhi took a bag from where the cookies were and handed it to her.
"Aren't the cookies delicious?"
"Yeah, it's delicious."
"The cookies are really delicious."
Wuhe was making up sarcastic words beside him, but Xia Zhicai didn't want to give her this chance.
"Then, can you please help me give it to others to try. No matter who it is, if you meet someone you can talk to or a classmate, give some to her, and then tell her about our store.
.This is the reward for treating you to snacks for free."
Rishi did not immediately take the plastic bag containing the cookies, but said with a rather troubled expression: "Although I really want to do this for you, senior, but I really don't have anyone I can talk to."
"It doesn't matter. Good friends need to help each other, right, Wuhe?"
"Ah? Huh? Are you plotting against me?" Wu Heyuan glared at Xia Zhi: "I paid for it properly."
"Now is a time when a good friend needs help. You won't be so heartless, right? If there are more customers in the store, I will buy you a drink for free... Forget it, I will give you all the food our store can provide
How about I give you both some snacks? Isn’t this a good deal?"
No matter how excellent the product you own is, no matter how good it is, if no one knows about it, it will not be able to bring benefits. The aroma of wine does not have to be deep in the alley, it must be fragrant enough, and it must be fragrant enough to spread far away.
The aroma of the place, what is needed is not cooking skills but magic.
Using a little profit as an investment to get a greater return is what advertising is all about.
Words alone are not enough. If you let people try it for free, they will have a more intuitive impression of the dim sum.
Although it should be enough at this level, yet another fire is needed.
"By the way, if anyone is interested in these snacks, remember to tell them that these snacks are available in limited quantities."
Japanese people have absolutely no resistance to words like "first release", "limited edition", and "special". This is why companies that own popular IP copyrights can make money every time they launch so-called limited figures or peripheral products.
Instead of giving your money to those unscrupulous merchants who cheat money, it’s better to buy something to reward yourself, right?
If it is at the level of 9.8 billion, all the money saved can be used to promote the economic development of society.
"Sounds like a pretty good idea."
Wuhe started to think.
"Don't think about it anymore, it's a win-win deal. Just take it and play."
Natsuki handed the cookie to Rishi's hand.
"It doesn't matter if you don't have anyone to talk to. Let's go with Wuhe and try to talk to more people. There will definitely be people who can become good friends with Rishi. You see, making friends is not that easy.
Isn’t it difficult? It’s okay to be more confident.”
"Yes. I will try my best." Rishi nodded shyly.
"Then I'll leave this matter to you and Wuhe. Let's go play."
At this time, the door of the classroom was opened again, and May was walked in. She was holding the same number of snacks as before, but they were not cookies, but replaced by other things.
"Eh? Are there any guests? Should I call Ryoko and Shiori over?"
"No, this is an acquaintance of mine."
"Really? Hello."
Wuyue greeted them and placed the snacks in front of Xia Zhi.
"Originally there were more, but as soon as they were made in the classroom over there, some were secretly eaten by Ryoko and Shiori. Those two are being trained over there now." May said to Xia Zhi about the ones over there.
Interesting thing.
"Then let's go, goodbye seniors." Wuhe was about to take Rishi away.
"Wait a minute, Wuhe, bring this with you."
Xia Zhi took another bag from the many snacks and handed it to Wuhe: "Same as before, if you want to eat it, you can eat it yourself."
"No, I'll come back later. Goodbye."
Then Itsuka took Rise and slipped away from the classroom.
May was a little confused: "What's going on?"
"Ask them to help advertise. After all, the snacks made by Shiraishi are delicious, so they are perfect for attracting customers." Xia Zhi briefly explained to her. After all, they are partners who opened a shop together, so this kind of thing is still possible.
You have to give a good explanation: "By the way, I shouldn't have to pay for this myself, right?"
"If it's such a small amount, there's no need. Ryoko and Shiori have already eaten so much over there. But that's what I said. There aren't many customers now anyway, otherwise I'll call the other girls over and join us.
How is the promotion? Anyway, if they just go to the school festival, they will lose interest soon."
"It's okay, but I don't know if it will lead to excessive investment..."
"It's okay. The raw materials are not very expensive anyway. To be honest, this school festival was really profitable. I learned a lot of snack-making methods. Even if this coffee shop doesn't make much money, I don't think it matters. In the end, it's just
The extra money will be gathered together and used to hold celebrations and the like.”
"The money you earn must be collected carefully..."
"If you don't use it, the teacher will take away your class fee!"
"It would be more cost-effective to hold a celebration party."
May showed an expression that everyone understood.
"Then let's do this for now. I'll go back first, Lihua is making new snacks. Seriously, don't you need me to call Shiori and the others over?"
"No, this is easier than my usual job in the store. It's my situation to be able to do it with ease."
"It's really reliable. I'm leaving then. See you later."
"goodbye."
After Fukuda Satsuki left, Natsuki walked out of the counter again and began to pack up the table and tableware that Rise and Itsuka had used before. They used disposable tableware, which was very convenient to put away.
Japan's disposable tableware is relatively expensive. To be honest, Xia Zhi feels a little sad to throw it away after using it once. However, the tableware that has been used once cannot be given to other guests and cannot be washed, so this
It's also something that can't be helped.
As for buying standard tableware, to be honest, it is more expensive, and Xia Zhi is not sure about the scale of the school festival business. People she knows also said that there are not many customers. Even Shiraishi Rika said that these disposable tableware should be enough, Xia Zhi
A layman will no longer express too many opinions.
After cleaning up, Xia Zhi returned to the simple counter and continued his great work of grinding coffee beans. This time Xia Zhi had a great time grinding coffee beans. During this period, Futian came twice more in May and asked Xia Zhi if he had any
When guests came, Xia Zhi boldly guessed that his investment had failed. Futian smiled and comforted Xia Zhi before leaving.
There was a knock on the door, and Xia Zhi thought about whether to keep the door open. Before he could say please come in, the classroom door was pushed open. What Xia Zhi saw was an unknown girl.
"Excuse me, is this place still open?"
"Yes, please come this way."
"Ah, no, no, no. I was just introduced here by Xiao Yuan."
Who is Xiao Yuan? Xia Zhi's mind turned around and he realized that she should be referring to Wu He.
"Is it Wuhe?"
"Yeah. I'm also a member of the Discipline Committee. I was given some snacks by Xiao Yuan when I was on patrol. They were delicious, so I came over after the patrol."
It seems that the investment is not a complete failure, Wuhe and the others are indeed taking action.
"Since it's someone Wuhe knows, I can give you a discount."
"Really? Thank you very much."
"This is the menu, but because the snacks have just started to be made in the home economics classroom, so far there are only this, this and these two. If you need anything else, I can call them and ask them to hurry up and make them.
But even if we start now, it will take a lot of time, so please understand this."
"It's okay, it's okay, I just want to buy some cookies."
Hmm... I finally got a guest, how could I give up so easily?
Xia Zhi took a paper plate, put some from each bag of snacks on it, and then handed it to the girl.
"Come and try it. It's free. If you don't eat it, it's free. It's all delicious."
Although I understand what Xia Zhi’s purpose is, if I can face the delicious snacks without wavering, I will not come here from the beginning. The girl hesitated: "In that case, I won't be polite.
"
The girl was silent, and then began to taste the snacks on the paper plate. Xia Zhi waited for half a minute to separate.
"Please give me one of each of these four snacks."
"Chenghui. In addition, as agreed, we will give you a 20% discount this time. Our store also has various other snacks. If you come here next time, we can still give you a discount, but we need you to help us with a little
Busy. If possible, please try to recommend your friends to come and play. If they are your friends, I can provide them with a 10% discount. The 20% discount I give you should be regarded as an agreement between us and you.
"
Xia Zhi showed a gentle smile.
"Really? That's great. I'll go back and ask my friends to come over and play." The girl showed an obviously happy expression.
"Wait a moment. What is your last name?"
"Just call me Nishino."
Xia Zhi went back and found a piece of white paper, folded it three times and then tore it off neatly along the crease. He took a pen and wrote "20% off discount for the second guest Nishino" on it, and scratched it casually on the back of the paper.
A simple drawing of a kitten followed the same pattern and wrote five "10% off discounts for friends", and Xia Zhi handed them all to the girl.
"Because the store has not prepared any discounts or anything before, so these things are not prepared at all. Please don't worry if they are a little rudimentary. This coupon is specially given to you, so please keep it well.
.”
"Oh, thank you, bye."
"Walk slowly, welcome to come again next time."
Xia Zhi watched the girl named Nishino leave and fell into deep thought. Although there were customers coming now, he could not yet conclude that this coffee shop would become popular. If it did, then such a small number of products would definitely not be enough.
Xia Zhi was hesitating whether to call Shiraishi Lihua to catch up on work and make more snacks.
But it's only a little after ten o'clock now, and there's still a long time before lunch, so there shouldn't be a rush. Just let the number of snacks increase naturally.
Let's wait twenty or thirty minutes to see what happens. Maybe the current speed is just right.
Xia Zhi continued to grind coffee beans. Occasionally, one or two girls would come to buy snacks with news they got from Wuhe, or handmade coupons they got from a girl named Nishino who just came to buy things. However,
There weren't many people there, and they basically came to buy snacks.
If you had decided to open a dim sum shop and set up a stall outside, the business would have been very good, right?
The coffee powder was ground more and more, and when Xia Zhi was thinking about secretly drinking a cup, the classroom door was opened again.
"Welcome." Xia Zhi looked towards the door of the classroom.
There are one, two, three...six people in total? There are boys and girls. There are more than I expected...
If everyone wants snacks, I don’t know if there will be enough. Even if I regret that I didn’t call Shiraishi Rika before and rush to make snacks, it’s too late.
"Is this place open for business?"
"Yes."
"It looks like there are no waiters. Can you do it alone?" one of the boys asked.
"Because there were no customers in the store before. But I can do it alone. Do you need anything?"
"Oh, by the way. This is the coupon I got from Nishino. Can I use it?"
Xia Zhi confirmed that it was indeed his own writing on it, and there was also a simple drawing of a kitten on the back.
"Yes."
"Sorry to trouble you, please give us one of each of the snacks we have. Can we order drinks?"
"OK."
"I'll have a latte, what do you want?"
They started communicating, and Xia Zhi found that he was about to get busy.
