Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

But it is not ruled out that some people think that the two-yuan bath ticket is too expensive, so they just eat and drink for free. However, the price of pastries is cheap, so it doesn’t cost much to eat more.

As for the staff, in addition to five male and five female bath attendants, a total of ten, there is also a lobby manager and administrative staff.

There is no technical skill required for a bath scrubber, as long as one has some strength. The recruitment requirements are simple and the salary is low, with a base salary of 15 yuan a month. However, for each customer, the scrubber will receive a commission of 20 cents. If it is spread out among everyone, that's at least one yuan a day, which is a considerable income in a month.

In addition, each employee will receive three additional bath tickets each month for use by family members.

The benefit of giving commissions is that it ensures that they work seriously. If a customer complains that the bath is not clean enough, they will not get the corresponding commission.

Secondly, it can also allow them to attract more customers, which can generate income for the bathhouse and increase their own income at the same time.

Excluding employee salaries, the daily net profit is roughly between eighty and eighty-five dollars.

That’s about two thousand five hundred yuan a month.

At present, among the existing stores under Xu Wanning’s name, the bathhouse actually has the lowest net profit.

Not to mention Xujiapu Restaurant, its net profit per month is as high as more than 8,000 yuan.

Now, Tang Ting is the only one in charge of the boutique store. Although the turnover has decreased, the net profit every month is still four to five thousand yuan. This is the money that falls into Xu Wanning's hands, not counting the dividends given to Tang Ting.

The Uni-President Snack Shop also makes a profit of three to four thousand yuan every month.

The cosmetics store had only been open for a short time, and was delayed for a few days due to the Zhang family's affairs, but the overall monthly turnover was over three thousand. The reason was simple: the profit of cosmetics was simply too high.

All in all, the bathhouse has the highest investment cost, but its profit is the lowest among the stores.

After Xu Wanning finished calculating the accounts and put away the account book, Lin An couldn't help but ask, "Aning, I don't quite understand. You invested so much in the bathhouse, but the profit is only so little. Why do you still want to open a bathhouse?"

Xu Wanning stretched and lazily explained, "A net profit of more than 2,000 yuan a month is actually quite a lot. You know, my dad's monthly salary is only more than 200 yuan. The money I earn in a month is almost equal to his annual salary."

"It's just that because there are several other shops in front of it, the income of the bathhouse seems a bit bad."

In fact, if you think about it carefully, although the bathhouse does not make much money, it is still a good business.

The reason I opened the bathhouse was because when I was talking to Boss Yu about the three-piece washing and care set, an idea suddenly occurred to me.

So she spent 30,000 yuan to buy a piece of land.

Compared with the two plots of land she bought in Qizhou, the land for the bathhouse is indeed a bit expensive, after all, the area is much smaller.

But the location is good.

Judging from the current situation, it is still a bit remote, but after another few years or ten years of development, it will definitely be within the Second Ring Road.

A plot of land of more than one acre or nearly two acres can be bought at a price of thirty thousand yuan now. By the millennium, its value will definitely exceed three hundred million yuan!

This is also an investment.

If you don't open a bathhouse, wouldn't it be a waste to just buy a piece of land and leave it there?

She initially invested over 10,000 yuan to renovate the bathhouse, but judging from the bathhouse's current income, she will make back her investment in one year at most, and all the profits after that will be net profit.

There is almost no autumn in Beijing. Winter comes early and spring comes late. It is cold for at least half of the twelve months in a year. Therefore, running a bathhouse will basically not result in a loss. It is just a matter of how much profit you make.

Although the bathhouse does not make as much money as other shops, Xu Wanning believes that it can solve the problem of many people not being able to take a bath in cold weather. If you round it off, she can be considered to be seeking benefits for the people.

"People need to have a long-term vision and not just focus on making money."

Lin An laughed dumbly, "You always have your own reasons for doing things."

In the blink of an eye, it was already winter of 1982, and in a few days it would be New Year's Day.

For the people of Beijing, this winter can be said to be the most pleasant and happiest winter since the reform and opening up.

Because I can eat fresh vegetables in winter.

There are just too few varieties, currently only cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplants and lettuce.

Among the green leafy vegetables, lettuce has the lowest requirements for the living environment. It was also a vegetable that Xu Wanning and the teachers in the research team conducted many experiments before they were able to successfully grow in greenhouses.

Huaqing University has an experimental field, which is used entirely for growing greenhouse vegetables, but due to limited funds, its scale is far smaller than Xu Wanning's farm.

Yang Kai rode a three-wheeled motorcycle, transporting fresh vegetables such as cucumbers and eggplants to the city one trip after another.

Xu Wanning originally wanted to sell it at the Uni-President Snack Shop, but considering that the Uni-President Snack Shop had to be open every day, and its location was not very good, with many businesses and students around it, but relatively few residents, and the purchasing power was not high.

So, Xu Wanning rented a small shop in the city center, specializing in selling fresh vegetables.

When the people of Beijing learned that they could eat fresh vegetables in the cold winter, they almost all flocked to the small shops.

Before daybreak, a long line formed at the door.

Xu Wanning had only seen this scene at train stations in later generations.

Even though there are greenhouses in two areas planting together, the number is not too large.

Yang Kai roughly estimated the number of farms, and found that there were about 4,000 kilograms of cucumbers, 3,000 kilograms of tomatoes, 4,000 kilograms of eggplants, and a full 6,000 kilograms of lettuce.

The farm of Huaqing University produces 2,000 kilograms of cucumbers, tomatoes, and eggplants, and 4,000 kilograms of lettuce.

In this way, there are a total of 6,000 kilograms of cucumbers, 5,000 kilograms of tomatoes, 6,000 kilograms of eggplants, and more than 10,000 kilograms of lettuce.

It may sound like a lot at first glance, but if you divide it equally, each household can't buy much.

After all, Beijing has a large population base.

But it is a consensus that off-season fruits and vegetables are expensive, so only a few people are willing to spend the money to buy them.

Xu Wanning set the price from the beginning.

Eggplants are two yuan per pound, cucumbers and tomatoes are three yuan per pound, and lettuce is one yuan and fifty yuan per pound.

"Wan Ning, isn't this price a bit too expensive?"

Seeing Xu Wanning writing the price on the cardboard, Teacher Jin asked hesitantly.

In November, a pound of pork cost about one dollar and fifty cents. At the end of the year, everything has gone up in price, and pork is no exception. For example, the price of pork belly or fat is basically two dollars or more.
