Siheyuan: Sending Shazhu into the call center, Yi Gu is useless

"Boss, how are these remote control cars selling?" Chen Rufeng asked casually.

The stall owner was a shrewd middle-aged man. When he saw that there was a customer coming, he immediately introduced enthusiastically: "Boss, you have a good eye. These remote control cars are the latest models. They are fast and easy to control. Children like them very much. They are very popular in the stores in front of the school. I guarantee that if you buy a batch, you will definitely have no trouble selling them!"

Chen Rufeng was somewhat tempted when he heard what the stall owner said. He knew that the children around the courtyard would be very interested in this kind of novelty toy, especially this kind of remote control car that looked cool and practical, which would definitely attract a lot of attention.

However, he was a little hesitant. After all, the cost of these toys was not low, and if they were not sold well, it would be a big loss. Thinking of this, he could not help but weigh the pros and cons, and his heart was wavering between buying and giving up.

"What is the purchase price of these cars? If I buy in bulk, can you give me a preferential price?" Chen Rufeng decided to give it a try.

The stall owner smiled, obviously seeing his concerns, and readily quoted a price, and promised to give a further discount if the purchase volume was large. Chen Rufeng calculated in his mind and felt that although the price was not low, it was within an acceptable range.

"Okay, I'll order a batch and give it a try." Finally, Chen Rufeng made up his mind and decided to take a risk. He knew that business always has risks, and as a store owner, he must always maintain a keen sense of the market and cannot stagnate for fear of failure.

On that day, Chen Rufeng not only ordered a batch of remote control cars, but also selected some educational toys suitable for young children, as well as several popular puzzles and building blocks. He hoped that each toy he carefully selected would bring new vitality to the store and attract more customers.

A few days later, the toys were delivered to the store. Chen Rufeng started to get busy early in the morning, placing the new toys in a prominent position and setting up a small corner to display the new products. He secretly hoped that this purchase would bring a different change to the store.

After school that day, many children were attracted by these new toys and gathered in front of the display area, pointing and talking, their eyes full of curiosity and anticipation. A little boy excitedly pulled his friend's hand and pointed at the remote control car: "Look, this is so cool! I want my dad to buy me one!"

Chen Rufeng stood aside, feeling relieved. He knew that his judgment was correct, and the children's love for the toys was the best proof. Although it was just the beginning, he could already feel that this batch of toys would bring new vitality to the store.

At the end of the day, several remote-controlled cars and sets of building blocks were quickly sold out. Seeing the children happily leaving with their new toys, Chen Rufeng felt a sense of accomplishment. This feeling came not only from the increase in sales, but also from the satisfaction of being able to bring happiness to the children.

At night, Chen Rufeng sat in the store, thinking back to the busy day, and the sense of innocence in his heart seemed to be relieved a lot. He knew that he still loved this job and was still willing to give more for these familiar neighbors and children. Although his life was plain, it was fulfilling and meaningful.

When Jia Dongxu came to visit him in the store, he saw the smile on his face and couldn't help but joked: "Look at your spirits. You seem to be in good shape recently. Are you happy because these new toys are selling well?"

Chen Rufeng smiled and nodded: "Yes, Dongxu. The toys we bought this time are pretty good, and the children like them very much. I find that sometimes, life needs a little change to maintain enthusiasm."

After hearing this, Jia Dongxu nodded with satisfaction: "I'm glad you think so. In business, you always have to keep trying and adjusting to go further. Your store is destined to get better and better."

Chen Rufeng felt warm in his heart. He knew that he had walked out of that ridiculous low point and regained a sense of control over his life. He was no longer troubled by past emotions, nor was he anxious about the unknown future. He understood that he still had a lot of things to do, and there were still many people who needed his care and concern.

The introduction of new toys brought a brief bustle to the store, and Chen Rufeng felt a little relieved. However, he gradually discovered that the initial hot sales were only short-lived. The children's novelty soon faded, and the sales of toys slowed down significantly, especially those higher-priced remote control cars and building blocks, which were almost ignored.

After a few days, Chen Rufeng began to feel uneasy. He noticed that the store's inventory was increasing, but there were only a few customers who came to buy toys. The goods that were initially sold out now lay quietly on the shelves, covered with a layer of light dust.

One night, Chen Rufeng sat behind the counter in the store, staring at the gradually increasing inventory and declining sales in the account book, feeling depressed. He flipped through the recent purchase order and felt uneasy: Was he too eager for success and ignored the real needs of the market? The preferences of those children seemed to be more changeable than he expected, and his purchase decision seemed a bit hasty.

Just as he was lost in thought, Jia Dongxu pushed the door open and walked in. He immediately saw Chen Rufeng looking worried. He walked over and patted Chen Rufeng on the shoulder: "Mr. Chen, what's wrong? You don't look very well. Did something happen in the store?"

Chen Rufeng sighed, closed the account book, and said helplessly: "Dongxu, we bought too many toys this time, and they didn't sell as well as I expected. Now the inventory is very tight, and the money is tied up in the goods and can't be recovered."

Jia Dongxu frowned after hearing this: "This situation is indeed a bit tricky. Why don't you try to organize a promotion to clear the inventory? Although the profit will be less, at least you can get some money back." He knew that what Jia Dongxu said made sense, but he still felt a sense of frustration. He had always been careful in running the store and never took risks easily, but this decision put him in a difficult situation. Although the loss was not unbearable for him, the feeling of failure made him feel very uncomfortable, as if his hard work had gone to waste in an instant.

Jia Dongxu saw that he was in a low mood and comforted him, "Old Chen, how can you not make mistakes when doing business? No one can avoid making losses. The key is that you have to learn from your mistakes and find a way to adjust. You have run this store for so many years, who among our neighbors doesn't know your abilities?
