The Age of Rebirth: Struggle of the Eldest Daughter

Chapter 3
"Mom, I'm back."

Su Manjin yelled, trotted over, and hugged her mother's waist tightly.

When she fell off the cliff in her last life, she was still regretting how sad her mother would be if she received the news that she was gone.Unexpectedly, God is willing to give me a chance to live again.

Zeng Meiyue turned around, hugged her with a smile, "Why, you're already a big girl, and you still like to act like a baby." She was angry, but she hugged her daughter back and smoothed the little girl's hair.

Seeing his sister hugging his mother, Su Jinyang also ran over, "I want to hug her too." As he said, he hugged his mother's calf.

Zeng Meiyue bent down and patted her son's head, looked at her daughter and said, "you two, go to the yard to play for a while, and mother has to tidy up these things. Don't run too far. When it gets dark, grandpa and grandma come back." It's time for dinner."

"Mom, let me tidy up for you. Xiaoyang will play at the door."

Su Manjin looked at the familiar layout of the house in his memory, and said it was a grocery store, but in fact it was just to put the goods at home.

The small bungalow faces south, and the east wing is the master bedroom, where Su Yuhui and Zeng Meiyue live with Su Jinyang.

The west wing room was originally Su Manjin's room, but because he ran a grocery store and needed a warehouse to store things, Su Manjin temporarily lived in the old house next door. Anyway, after Su Yuhui and his wife moved out, the room was empty.

The southwest room is the kitchen stove and dining room, but the husband and wife have just moved here for less than half a month, and they haven’t started the fire yet. At present, the whole family still eats together in the old house.

The space in the main hall is quite large, with an old L-shaped glass counter. There is also a high-rise old shelf inside the counter. At the foot of the shelf, scattered goods are placed high with beer crates.

These goods shelves were all moved from Zeng Meiyue's mother's house.Her elder brother runs a grocery store in Shuitou Village. The location is good and the business is good.Thinking that my sister is weak and unable to do heavy work, I asked my sister to bring some goods to sell, which can be regarded as a living.Knowing the situation of my brother-in-law's family, I also took the initiative to say that it doesn't matter if I owe the money first.

While helping her mother organize the goods behind the glass counter, Su Manjin was thinking: in the countryside in [-], big supermarkets hadn't emerged yet, and grocery stores with good street locations had a good business.

Mother's groceries are spread out at home, and now they can only be sold to neighbors.But in the last life, my mother started the liquefied gas replacement business two or three years after opening the shop. She was not afraid of hard work, delivered goods in time, and had a good service attitude. Taking the landline, she even covered the gas delivery business to six or seven surrounding villages.

Su Manjin often helped her mother settle the accounts together in her last life, so she knew very well the income of the grocery store later, at least until she graduated from high school, the income of the small store was still good.

If his father hadn't gone to Jiucun to open a shop a few years later to meet those people and start gambling, he would not have come to the end of the road, let alone let the siblings and mother spend 10 years to repay the debt.

"Mom, we didn't publicize the grocery store before, right?" Su Manjin looked up and asked, "Except for the neighbors in our new village, the old village and the next-door village don't know that we have opened a store. Do you want to publicize it?" ah?"

Zeng Meiyue heard her daughter talk about publicity, "How to publicize it? I discussed it with your father a few days ago. We have just started now, and everyone will know about it."

"Mom, I heard from Uncle Sheng Rong that the smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys."

"Our small shop didn't open on the street, so we lost a lot of customers. If the people around us don't know that our shop has opened, they will still go to the street to buy something when they need it. In this way, we There will be fewer customers.”

Su Manjin knew that although her mother could not read, she would definitely understand what she meant.From her promotion of liquefied gas replacement business in her previous life, she can know that her mother still has business acumen, but she is just starting to open a store now, and she is not familiar with it, so she is a little timid.

"Mom, let's treat this period as a trial operation. Starting tomorrow, we will prepare. We will first promote the new village, and then the old village, and then the adjacent Zhengjia Village and Huangjia Village who are closer to our village. .We have to let every household know that they can come to our store if they want to buy something.”

Zeng Meiyue's eyes lit up when she heard her daughter's words, "My girl has just started school in the first half of the year, and she even knows how to open a shop. Then tell Mom, what are we going to prepare, and how do we promote it?"

Su Manjin was thinking about how to tell her mother how to operate the store in an easy-to-understand manner without making her wonder where her eight-year-old daughter came from.

"Let's choose a store name first, which is convenient for customers to remember and spread. It will also be used for registration of business licenses in the future."

"The categories of goods in the store also need to be sorted out and improved. Now because we don't have the original funds, these goods are all on credit from my uncle's house first. But after we sell some and recover the cost, we can go to my uncle to make up some more. goods, you can also choose some other goods to sell in the store.”

"When the goods are abundant, customers can buy groceries in our store in one stop. In this way, we can sell more things and make more money. Customers don't have to travel to different places, saving time, and they will I am more willing to come to our store to buy things.”

"Although our small shop does not have a location facing the street outside, it can be regarded as a relatively middle location in the village. There is a motorcycle road in front of the door. Whether people from the new village, old village or neighboring villages want to buy things, it is not far away, and the road is good. Walk."

"When we are ready, we can make some simple leaflets, list some commonly used items in everyone's life, and select one or two limited items for discounted prices. Customers who come to buy things during the opening activities can enjoy preferential prices."

"Let's distribute the leaflets to the door-to-door of the target customer group, so that everyone knows when we will officially open."

"Usually we can also provide door-to-door delivery service. As long as the customer buys 100 yuan, we can deliver the goods to the door. Customers can also make orders with neighbors. As long as the total purchase of two neighbors reaches 100 yuan, we will It can also be delivered to home. When the business improves in the future, we can adjust the rules for home delivery.”

"We open a store in our own home without renting the store, which is more cost-effective for now. When our business grows bigger and we make money, we will go to the street to buy or rent a store to operate."

Zeng Meiyue looked at her daughter who was talking clearly and logically about how to do a good job in the business. Although she was a little puzzled as to how her daughter knew so much, she also thought that Xiaoman was sensible since she was a child, and now she went to school again. Maybe she was a teacher. Give ideas to share.

She felt very proud, and her confidence was boosted by the little girl.

Originally running this small shop, my eldest brother was worried that he was too weak to do small jobs, so he thought of opening a small shop by himself to subsidize the family, so that he would not have to do manual labor.

I have never run a store before, and I was a little worried at first. I didn't know if I could start it, and I didn't know when the money owed to my elder brother would be repaid, so I thought about trying to start a business slowly.

She didn't expect her daughter to have an idea. Although she hasn't tried the methods she mentioned, she has a hunch that they can be promoted. At least the old and new businesses in Sujia Village should be covered.

Zeng Meiyue was a little excited. When she was not married, her father also said that "it is better to be a businessman than to be a businessman".According to the way my daughter said, as long as the store can be promoted, maybe the husband and wife can cooperate to open a store and start a business, and the husband doesn't have to do the hard work of mining stones and moving them all the time.

Zeng Meiyue felt that she saw hope for a better life!
　The business formula left by the ancestors:

　　As long as you put it up, someone will buy it.

　　As long as there are many, someone will touch it.

　　As long as the goods are clean, the customers are happy.

　　As long as the quality is good, the business will last forever.

　　As long as there are more regular customers, more goods will be sold.

　　From business to business, the source of wealth reaches Sanjiang.

　　Only when the business is settled, the business will prosper.

　　Seeing people smile three-pointedly, and customers can't escape.

　　The customer has opened his mouth, and the business is coming soon.

　　Not afraid of small business, but afraid of few customers.

　　If a transaction is not ahead of time, it is worthless if it is late.

　　A friendly guest comes, and a cold talker stays away.
