After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

Bai Yi seemed to be thinking about something while listening to Wang Ye's complaints.

After a moment of silence, she asked Wang Ye, "Is this relative of yours a female?"

Wang Ye said in surprise, "How do you know?"

Bai Yi felt relieved, but she told herself that she might have been overthinking, "I just guessed."

There just happened to be a guest at the door, and Bai Yi went to greet the guest.

Wang Ye calmed down a lot and didn't bother to think about it anymore.

He Fen had always thought about what she wanted to do. As long as she didn't push him and Bai Yi to have a child, she could do whatever she wanted.

Bai Yi calculated the sales volume of the store in the past month.

The store has been open for nearly a month. Wang Ye is usually busy taking care of customers, almost running in both directions, and has no time to do all this.

After Bai Yi calculated the accounts, he found that only one month after opening the store, the store's expenses and costs were nearly 20% higher than expected.

The store's daily turnover is stable, but precisely because it is stable, there is no control over expenditures and costs.

Now because it is a new store and there are activities, money is spent in many places.

But as time goes by, the problems will gradually increase.

Therefore, if you want the flow rate to become stable and gradually increase, you must control costs.

Bai Yi was busy all afternoon, and it was not until after the evening rush hour that Bai Yi approached Wang Ye to discuss this issue.

"I did some calculations today and found out the turnover of the hot pot restaurant in the month since it opened. Although the daily turnover is very stable and the income is good, I found that many places in the store, whether it is the front or the back, are too wasteful. .”

Wang Ye didn't seem to realize it, "Really? I feel okay."

Bai Yi gave him an example, "This morning when I saw the waiter cleaning, he wanted to buy a new broom because it didn't fit his hand. There were also paper towels for guests. That box of paper towels was just the purchase price. It’s only four yuan, but they just take it apart and use new ones.”

Since opening the store, Wang Ye has focused on his customers every day, and has been running to solve problems of all sizes in the store.

Although the store is not big, there are about eight or nine people in the front and back. Wang Ye is a sincere person and feels that when people come to work for him, he should treat them better.

So what he usually says the most is, if you need anything, just tell him and don't be polite to him.

He really didn't pay attention to what Bai Yi said.

"There is also the kitchen. I went to the back today to take a look and found that the waste of dishes is very serious. Although the most important thing for hot pot is to ensure the freshness of the ingredients, which is true, when they pack up the dishes, they throw away the good and the bad together. Some of them are too troublesome and I don’t want to clean them up, so I just use half of them.”

"And the two eldest sisters, obviously there are a lot of things left and can be used three or four times, but they just buy new ones and take the remaining ones home for use as a matter of course."

In just one day, Bai Yi saw so many problems.

Not to mention what the store was like in the previous month.

Wang Ye was shocked, "Is it that serious?"

Bai Yi knew that he wouldn't care about such a trivial matter. Firstly, his thoughts were not that delicate. Secondly, even if he noticed it, he would think it was nothing.

She explained to Wang Ye carefully, "This is a new store, and the initial cost will indeed be high. This is inevitable, but since you have to spend money, you have to spend it in the right place. If these problems persist, If it continues like this, it will become more chaotic later on, and as time goes by, they will regard waste as a normal phenomenon."

"I also understand that in many aspects, you don't want them to think that the rules in the store are too harsh or stingy, but nothing can be done without rules. Treating employees well does not mean blindly indulging them. If this continues, you will only You hurt yourself.”

Wang Ye's expression gradually became serious. He didn't take these things seriously at first. Even if he knew about it, he didn't know how to deal with it.

But now that Bai Yi has made it so clear, he should really take it seriously.

"I understand. I will pay more attention to this matter starting from tomorrow."

Bai Yi reminded him, "If this phenomenon continues, you must deal with it. You are the boss of this store. You have to say what you need to say, but don't be too direct. They are also working hard for their livelihood. It’s not easy, and some of the things I say are too straightforward, which makes me feel uncomfortable.”

Wang Ye nodded, "Okay, I've taken note of everything you said."

Bai Yi handed him all the accounts he had compiled, "Put this away. You can keep an eye on the store's daily turnover. But at the end of each month, I will help you do an account and calculate the store's turnover." The costs and expenses, as well as the running water, etc., so that you have an idea of ​​what you are doing.”

Wang Ye felt a headache just listening to it.

It is said that if you are not a business owner, you will not realize that firewood, rice, oil, and salt are expensive. He does not open a shop, but he does not know that being a boss is not as glamorous as it seems on the surface.

Naturally, you are happy when you make more money, but once you have less money, you have to rack your brains to figure out what went wrong.

Bai Yi yawned. Wang Ye saw her tired look and said, "Why don't you go back first? There are no guests anymore. I'll just take a look at the rest."

"No need." Bai Yi pressed her temple. She had been staring at the computer for too long, so she was a little tired.

She looked at Wang Ye hesitantly, hesitating to speak, wondering whether to speak or not.

Wang Ye saw her staring at him, glanced at him subconsciously, then raised his head and asked doubtfully, "What's wrong? Is there anything else you want to say?"

Bai Yi pursed his lips and said, "Wait a minute, do you have anything else to do?"

Wang Ye said, "It's okay. I'll just do the finishing touches and close the door when the time comes."

Hot pot restaurants usually close after twelve o'clock, but there are waiters in the store, so he doesn't have to wait that late.

Bai Yi's expression was a little unnatural, "If nothing happens, I'll treat you to a meal later."

Wang Ye's eyes widened, extremely surprised, "You invite me to dinner?"

Bai Yi nodded, "I'm going to the branch in a few days. I'll probably stay there for a long time this time, maybe until the end of the year at the latest."

It’s almost September, and there are still three or four months until the end of the year.

Wang Ye didn't expect that she would stay there for so long this time.

But since she married him, she can count on her fingers the number of times she has returned to Chongqing.

Wang Ye is already used to it.

He asked in confusion, "Then why do you invite me to dinner? You act as if you are not coming back."

Bai Yi didn't know how to explain to Wang Ye. She knew that if she said that she invited him to dinner to talk to him about their affairs, Wang Ye would definitely not listen.
