71: You passed

Zhou Kaitian asked, "Boss, how many people do you need to hire for a Milk Tea Shop?"

Zhu Daqiang quickly interjected, "I think five people are enough!"

"Two people per shift, split into two shifts, and one person as a backup."

It was impolite of him to speak before the boss, but he hoped the boss would hire fewer people.

He also knew that the boss would never let employees work twelve hours, so he thought five people would be enough.

In his opinion, let alone five, two should be enough.

After all, the salary is so high!

Qian Ziyong thought for a moment, then decisively shook his head: "Five people are too few!"

"Ten people!"

"Four people per shift, with two others rotating for rest, working six hours a day, absolutely no overtime allowed."

"As for scheduling, you arrange it yourselves!"

Qian Ziyong had a calculation in his mind: a cost of 17,000 per person, so ten people would cost 170,000 a month.

One hundred shops would be seventeen million a month.

One thousand shops, that would be one hundred seventy million.

Most importantly, this was money spent every month!

Awesome!

Qian Ziyong's goal was to open a thousand shops first.

This way, he would lose one hundred seventy million every month.

He would lose all the money earned by Feihuang Supermarket and the Hot Pot Restaurant.

He had a business that would consistently lose money.

Isn't passive income very popular now?

As long as the Milk Tea Shop opened, he could lose money while lying down; wasn't that passive income?

"Then how many shops are we opening?" Zhou Kaitian asked.

Qian Ziyong patted Zhou Kaitian on the shoulder and said, "I'm giving you a challenging task: within ten days, invest these three hundred million. Open as many as you can!"

Three hundred million?

Zhou Kaitian's hands were trembling.

Qian Ziyong actually invested three hundred million, and he was investing it all within ten days.

Zhou Kaitian now just wanted to look up at the sky and let out a long cry: "Zhou has this day too!"

"Spend one hundred million today, earn one billion tomorrow!"

"Spend three hundred million in ten days! All the boasts I made before are coming true today!"

"Whoever dares to question me again, I'll throw the transaction records at him!"

At this moment, Zhou Kaitian even wanted to change his name.

Why be called Zhou Kaitian? Just call him Zhou San Yi (Zhou Three Hundred Million)!

Zhou Kaitian was overjoyed.

Wei Xiaoyan, standing beside him, also felt a surge of excitement.

It was true that she graduated from Harvard, but she was just a freshly graduated college student.

To manage a milk tea group with a three hundred million investment right after graduation, she found it somewhat unimaginable.

Rarely, Wei Xiaoyan showed a bit more of a smile towards Qian Ziyong.

"What about the specific operating strategy for the milk tea then?" Wei Xiaoyan asked.

Zhou Kaitian said, "I know this."

"We must use the best fruits and the freshest ingredients to give customers the best experience."

Qian Ziyong always acts unconventionally and very generously.

For example, the supermarket, the Hot Pot Restaurant, and Feihuang Restaurant.

Qian Ziyong doesn't seek the most expensive, but he seeks the best.

Whether it's the decoration or the ingredients, he demands the best!

But unexpectedly, Qian Ziyong shook his head vigorously: "No, we're not aiming for the best; we're going for cheap."

"Food hygiene and food safety must be in place; that's the bottom line."

"Besides that, keep the ingredients simple, ideally bought directly online!"

"As for decoration, make it as simple as possible, don't bother with anything fancy."

The high-quality ingredients and high prices of the Hot Pot Restaurant had made him a fortune.

This time, he was determined to go for low prices.

This is catering; if the ingredients aren't good, even if the employees' skills are excellent, it's impossible to make delicious milk tea.

Qian Ziyong refused to believe that this wouldn't result in a loss!

Wei Xiaoyan and Zhou Kaitian exchanged glances, somewhat perplexed.

Wei Xiaoyan didn't feel it was inappropriate.

After all, she was just a freshly graduated college student and had no research on operating a Milk Tea Shop.

Perhaps this was Qian Ziyong's business strategy!

After all, both the supermarket and the Hot Pot Restaurant had made a killing.

In other aspects, she might question Qian Ziyong.

But in terms of business operations, Wei Xiaoyan knew her place.

Whatever Qian Ziyong said, that's how it would be!

Zhou Kaitian felt even less that it was inappropriate; he had blind adoration for Qian Ziyong.

Wherever he went, he'd say: My boss is so awesome.

"Alright, boss, we will complete the task as quickly as possible," Zhou Kaitian said, standing straight.

Qian Ziyong nodded.

...

In Shen City, inside a spacious office building, this was the new office of Bingmi Milk Tea.

Inside the office, Qian Ziyong was recruiting people.

Zhou Kaitian and the others had gone to open new Milk Tea Shops.

He was too lazy to run around, so he recruited people at the new company.

He had already posted recruitment information on major websites, and Qian Ziyong let everyone who submitted a resume come for an interview, focusing on doing whatever he pleased.

Qian Ziyong found that many fresh graduates from top-tier universities were also submitting resumes to him.

"Is it that competitive now?"

"Top-tier university college students coming to sell milk tea?"

Qian Ziyong couldn't quite understand.

They were all Students; although he was from a second-tier university, he still felt that if he could help them, he would.

He ordered a Delivery Boy, then picked up his phone and started playing.

Not long after, the interviewees arrived.

Qian Ziyong asked them to wait a moment.

Soon, the first interviewee came in.

Qian Ziyong was already familiar with interviewing.

First, he would let the person introduce himself, then directly hire him.

Some people disliked selling milk tea, but upon hearing the salary of ten thousand, plus various subsidies, they immediately couldn't wait to sign the contract.

Dozens of people were interviewed, and not a single one left; all were taken in by Qian Ziyong.

Recruiting people is truly simple.

Post recruitment information online, then directly interview, offer salary conditions, the other party immediately agrees, and then sign the contract.

It's that simple.

His Delivery Boy arrived.

Qian Ziyong was in the middle of an interview and casually took the braised pork rice handed to him by the Delivery Boy.

Now, when he ordered Delivery Boy, he directly ordered dishes with meat.

He still had over two million in his hand, which he could spend freely; it was truly awesome!

The applicant in front of him hadn't even started his self-introduction, but Qian Ziyong, wanting to eat sooner, said, "You're hired!"

"Tell the people behind to wait a moment, I'll finish eating very soon."

After saying that, he started devouring his meal.

The interviewee was a bit confused.

The Delivery Boy was also stunned.

The Delivery Boy joked, "If you interview like this, won't your boss fire you?"

Qian Ziyong shook his head confidently: "I am the boss, who can fire me?"

After saying that, he took another bite.

This braised pork rice cost fifty yuan a portion, and the taste was really good!

The applicant asked, "I haven't even asked about the salary yet?"

He was directly hired and felt a bit uneasy.

Could it be that the salary was very different from what was written online, and very low?

Qian Ziyong said, "It's already written online."

"If you haven't seen it, I'll say it again."

"The salary is ten thousand a month, plus various other subsidies, so you can get at least twelve thousand."

"If you want a raise, there will be opportunities in the future."

There were quite a few subsidies, and he didn't remember them all, but he did remember that he could get at least twelve thousand.
