Chapter 695: Inventory Emergency
Editor: Henyee Translations
“The goods sold too quickly in the prefecture capital. There was still a lot of stock in the workshop, but now, more than half of them are gone.”
Tong Ping showed the inventory list to Gu Yundong. “Ever since the shop opened in the prefectural city, the workshop has not rested, but the stock in the warehouse is still decreasing.”
In other words, they were short of manpower.
Gu Yundong also knew that there were many rich people in the prefecture capital. Their purchasing power was too shocking. Although she had limited their purchases, it was useless. There were even people who protested.
Gu Yundong had originally planned to go back and start expanding the workshop after the shop was opened.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Dai and Nie Shuang suddenly wanted to open a milk tea shop on a whim. However, these two people did not know much about this aspect, so she had more responsibilities. She was occupied and delayed.
However, she had already completed all the things she needed to do in the past two days. The renovation of the shop, the selection of the shop assistants, and other trivia could be done by Madam Dai. It was indeed time for her to go back to Yongfu Village to take a look.
Gu Yundong accepted the list and expressed that she knew what to do. She said to Tong Ping, “I’ll go back as soon as possible. Tell Tong An to recruit a group of people first. I’ll screen them when I get back.”
Last time, it was Tong An who went through the first round of the interview first. At that time, he was still very nervous. This time, he should be much more proficient.
Gu Yundong intended for him to be fully in charge of the workshop in the future. Since she was not around this time, it was a good opportunity for him to gain experience.
Tong Ping immediately agreed. They did not stay in the prefectural city that day.
As they had an appointment with someone to purchase the fruits, they left the Xuanhe Prefecture before the city gate closed.
Since Gu Yundong was planning to go back, she had to settle many things first.
Su Qing had been by her side for two days. Gu Yundong was no longer worried about her. She only asked her to go to the shop more often after she left. Occasionally, the girl could also go to Gu’s to see how her brother treated customers as a shop assistant. It was always beneficial for her to read and learn more.
It was no longer a problem for Feng Daneng with the blueprints. Other than the two carpenters who followed him, he also hired a few more people. They were people he had met in the prefectural city previously. They had a good relationship and were skilled.
Gu’s had also stabilized. With the deterrence on the first day of business, basically no one dared to come and find trouble.
On the other hand, the next day, she went to look for Madam Dai and Nie Shuang to say goodbye. The two of them were very reluctant.
They had not even given their shop a name, and the helpers they had chosen had not been introduced to Gu Yundong. The cook’s skills were not very good, and they felt that there were still many questions that they had yet to figure out. Now that Gu Yundong was leaving, they felt inexplicably flustered.
Gu Yundong’s face darkened. She thought to herself that returning to Yongfu Village at this time was indeed the right decision.
If she continued to stay here, she would probably have to decide everything in the shop.
Didn’t they say that they would pay money and do everything??
Gu Yundong felt that it was necessary for her to nurture their ability to be independent. If this continued, they would become more and more dependent on her.
Didn’t they know that she was still a child?
Hence, she said decisively, “If there’s anything, you can discuss it. As for anything that needs three people to decide, you can write to me. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely come back when the shop opens.”
Madam Dai and Nie Shuang had no choice but to nod and let her go back.
Gu Yundong heaved a sigh of relief. In the end, she bid farewell to her parents and sister.
