Entrepreneurship Stories: The Ugly Supermarket Couple - Difficult Times

Perhaps it was a gift from God, or perhaps it was fate that made them a couple. Although they looked ugly, their life depended not on painting, but on real labor... Continuing from the last time, the couple had a busy start in the supermarket,

What I will share with you next is the daily life of the couple in the supermarket... In the early days, the couple were busy in the store from 6 am to around 12 pm. I thought they were local aborigines.

, otherwise, why would this perfect location at the intersection of Qian Street fall into their hands!

Since this intersection is only less than 500 meters away from the village entrance, and it is located in the first half of the entire street, it can be said that it is too close to the village entrance. Young people always want to look behind them on their way home from work.

If your store is too far forward, it will be easily ignored. Although there is a lot of traffic and the farther forward, people will see it at first glance. But the problem is that they may not necessarily enter the store to make purchases when they see it.

And most of the time, the former small river at the entrance of the village and the current stinking ditch are often filled with a disgusting salty stench!

Therefore, the first shop at the entrance of the village, the "Old Mala Noodles" shop, has only average business. This is because its dishes are comprehensive enough, covering various flavors of food, such as noodles, rice, cakes, cold dishes, grilled skewers, etc., which basically covers everything.

The preference of most people, and the number of residents in the village is too large. Sometimes the restaurants in the middle of the street even have to queue up. If they weren't unwilling to wait, I'm afraid there wouldn't be so many people entering the store to spend money!

One can imagine how excellent the location of this supermarket is in this village.

Guesses are just guesses, and it turns out that the two of them would go back to their hometowns almost every year during the Chinese New Year, leaving a clerk behind in the supermarket.

So how they took over this supermarket is quite intriguing... From another perspective, maybe God is really fair?

He took away your appearance, but he also left you with corresponding opportunities... The couple worked in the supermarket day after day, from morning to night, without interruption. Perhaps this is the charm of doing business. One day

No one can resist the temptation of collecting money and counting money all day long. It seems that as long as they keep counting money, they can even forget to eat. The two of them often only eat at two or three o'clock in the afternoon.

Bowl, get a small stool, and sit in the supermarket aisle to eat.

Since they couldn't recruit a cashier at the beginning, the couple worked shifts to work and eat. The meals were cooked by themselves, or perhaps by the boss's wife. In the eyes of outsiders, the couple were considered to be traditional women-in-chief and men-in-chief.

external role assignments.

Due to the anxiety and pressure caused by fatigue and irritability, the man will often inadvertently yell at the woman when there are shoppers, but the woman will accept it silently angrily and not argue. Perhaps for the woman, she has done something wrong.

Although I feel uncomfortable after being told something, I feel sorry for myself and don't care about it.

When the boss lady is free, she sorts the goods and does the accounting. When she is busy, she also helps the man collect money and make change. She also has to deal with various inquiries from shoppers!

During those days, they made do with breakfast, lunch and dinner in the store. As the fatigue quickly accumulated, the supermarket owner inevitably developed thick dark circles under his eyes, and the woman also looked particularly tired!

It wasn't until about three to five months that they hired their first cashier, a girl in her early 17s or early 18s. She had just come to Beijing not long ago, or maybe she had just joined the society, so she looked a little timid!

Fortunately, practice makes perfect. As time went by, she began to regard the supermarket as her home. She became accustomed to the various people coming and going every day. Her hand movements became much faster. She scanned the QR code and pressed the Enter key.

, tell the total price, put the goods into bags, collect the money and change the money. After this process, you have already become familiar with it!

At this point, the couple's busy day after day finally began to improve, and the supermarket business is still in full swing!

When the boss saw that the main entrance of the supermarket could handle it, he started to open the east door of the supermarket. The east door faced the east entrance of the village. According to common sense, this door was more suitable for people to flow. In the past, this door was blocked by a bunch of people.

The goods were blocked, so it never opened!

Later, when the boss was able to free up his hands, he naturally wanted to clean up this door.

You have to know why I didn't do this before. It's because the work of cleaning up this door is not easy.

The door used to be a pile of mud bricks the size of a farm stove, which blocked the door completely!

As a result, not only is the light inside the supermarket poor, but the air cannot circulate.

Therefore, when the east door is pushed open, the supermarket obviously becomes brighter, sunny, and more convenient for the masses!

What supermarkets gain is an even larger flow of people.
