Rebirth after the apocalypse: I create a new world with space!

Chapter 1090: Not Afraid of Lack of Business

In their eyes, it seems as if eternal night does not exist at all. They are still busy with hope and working silently for the future of the store.

Before Li Luo entered the store, he saw this busy scene from outside.

Seeing that everyone did not slack off because of the arrival of the eternal night, Li Luo smiled with appreciation.

She quickened her pace and walked into the store, the soles of her shoes rubbing gently against the red carpet, making a slight "rustling" sound.

The lights in the store were like shining pearls, appearing exceptionally bright, forming a sharp contrast with the ink-like darkness outside.

"Thank you all for your hard work!" Li Luo's voice rang out softly in the store, with a bit of intimacy and warmth, like a spring breeze blowing through everyone's heart.

When the shop assistants heard the sound, they stopped what they were doing and turned around.

"Boss, you're here!" Liu Xiaofang, who was closest to the door, said with a smile, her face full of enthusiasm. That smile seemed to be able to dispel all fatigue.

"You came here so early, have you had breakfast?" Li Luo said as he looked around with gentle eyes.

At this time, before Liu Xiaofang could answer, Deputy Store Manager Liu Hai walked over quickly.

He walked with vigorous steps and a respectful look on his face as he said:

"Don't worry, boss. We came here after breakfast. Everyone knows that the workload is heavy today, so we dare not come to work on an empty stomach."

His eyes were full of respect for Li Luo, and there was a hint of determination in them, as if showing Li Luo their determination to work.

"That's good." Li Luo nodded, a look of relief on his face.

Then her eyes fell on the deliveryman Zhao Jianguo who was walking towards them.

Zhao Jianguo's steps were a little heavy, and his work clothes were slightly wrinkled.

"Old Zhao, how is the replenishment of goods going?"

Zhao Jianguo wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the sweat formed streaks on his rough palms.

He answered honestly:

"Boss, it will be ready soon. Make sure the shelves are fully stocked."

Li Luo smiled and encouraged:

"Okay, everyone has worked hard. Today is the first day of the Eternal Night. There may not be as many customers as before. If there are still no customers after you finish these tasks, you can leave work early, go back and have a good rest, and prepare for the days to come."

Hearing this, the shop assistants responded one after another, feeling deeply moved.

Someone couldn't help but say:

“Our boss is so thoughtful.”

"That's right, our boss is the one who is kind and beautiful!"

There was a determined light in everyone's eyes, as if small flames were burning, and then they turned around and plunged into their busy work.

Everyone is full of energy, as if there is infinite power supporting them.

Li Luo walked slowly in the store, carefully observing the displays, checking whether the goods were neatly arranged and whether the labels were clear.

She saw a merchandiser designing a display area for a newly launched product and walked over.

“It’s a good idea, but it could use some more decoration to make it stand out more.”

Li Luo put forward his own suggestions.

The display clerk's eyes lit up: "Boss, you're right. I'll change it right away."

Then, Li Luo walked to the counter, picked up an account book and began to read it carefully.

She looked at every account very carefully.

At this time, Liu Xiaofang, who was in charge of the cashier, said with a sad face:

"Boss, do you think that the arrival of Eternal Night will affect our business?"

She spent the whole morning in the store but didn't see a single customer, which made her a little worried.

After all, her salary is linked to the store's turnover.

Li Luo smiled slightly and encouraged:

"Don't worry, this situation is only temporary. Once everyone gets used to the eternal night life, there will naturally be customers."

The two were talking when suddenly, footsteps were heard at the door and everyone's eyes turned to the door.

A customer walked in with a look of surprise on his face, obviously attracted by the lively scene in the store.

"Welcome!" Liu Xiaofang immediately stepped forward and said enthusiastically.

The customer nodded and began to select items in the store.

Li Luo and the shop assistants smiled at each other and became even more motivated.

As time went by, more and more customers came to the store.

The shop assistants were busy and orderly serving the customers. Li Luo watched all this with hope in his heart.

"See, as long as the store is open here, we don't have to worry about a lack of business." Li Luo said to himself, his eyes firm and bright.

.........

After leaving Taodou Department Store, Li Luo went straight to Taodou Canteen.

It's lunchtime now, so I'd go see what the situation is over there.

Taodou Canteen is also located in the new city area. Its address is in an area that has not been fully developed and borders residential areas A and B.

This is the perfect location that Li Luo decided on after careful selection.

This place is close to two residential areas. For guests who come to buy food, they don’t need to travel a long distance and can enjoy delicious meals in just a few steps.

For the delivery guys, it greatly shortens the distance they travel to deliver food, and they can deliver steaming hot food to customers as quickly as possible, which is the best of both worlds.

Speaking of this Taobao canteen, its appearance has greatly reduced the pressure on the official canteen.

Don’t be fooled by the booming business in the official canteens every day.

There are crowds of people, but in fact there is no money to be made!

Sometimes, we even lose money.

You know, the entire base accommodates more than 10 survivors, and at least people choose to eat in the official cafeteria.

The reason why the official canteen has become the first choice for most people is simply that the food they sell is extremely cheap.

In order to guarantee the basic living needs of the survivors, the official canteen’s prices are almost close to cost, and free relief meals are provided every now and then.

In these end times, supplies are scarce and prices are skyrocketing.

Sometimes, the cost of cooking a meal at home is much higher than eating in a cafeteria.

Therefore, the official canteen became everyone’s first choice.

However, this put enormous pressure on the authorities.

That's tens of thousands of mouths waiting to be fed, and the amount of food consumed in a day is astonishingly high.

Purchase, store, cook, distribute...

Every link requires massive investment of manpower, material and financial resources.

The situation is particularly severe in procurement.

Don’t think that the officials at the Jinling base still have considerable food reserves.

But for long-term planning, the government has been actively purchasing from various channels.

In order to obtain more ingredients, the authorities have tried every possible means.
