Ten Years Against the Current of Rebirth

At this time, Xu Xing still didn't know what happened.

When I passed by the supermarket on my way home, I went in and picked up a small piece of pudding, slurping it all the way back to my door.

As a result, as soon as she entered the house, she saw Sun Wanhui sitting on the sofa, looking at her subtly.

Xu Xing blinked and changed his shoes after entering the door. He found that his mother was still staring at him, so he tried to walk towards the kitchen on the left.

Sun Wanhui's eyes followed Xu Xing's movements.

Xu Xing walked to the balcony on the right like he was playing tricks again, and Sun Wanhui's eyes continued to follow him.

In the end, Xu Xing had no choice but to walk up to his mother and hand over the little pudding in his mouth: "If you want to eat it, just say so."

"Get lost." Sun Wanhui succeeded in a second. While she was amused by him, the original strange atmosphere was also broken.

After hanging up the phone earlier, Sun Wanhui felt angry and funny when she thought that Xu Xing had secretly flirted with a little girl, and even spent her own pocket money to take model photos under the pretext of helping the store find models.

It's not like Sun Wanhui couldn't afford the modeling fee of a few hundred yuan, but in the end, this guy paid it by himself and lied to himself that it was free.

Well, it turns out it was just to let the little girl owe me a favor.

As for Xu Xing, he obviously didn't expect this. He just took out his Pineapple phone from his pocket and showed it off to his mother: "Now I also have the latest model."

Sun Wanhui knew this in advance, so she just curled her lips and took out her mobile phone: "What's the mobile phone number? I'll save it."

"I called you." Xu Xing called his mother and asked Sun Wanhui to remember her new mobile phone number.

After writing down her son's cell phone number, Sun Wanhui changed Xu Xing's original PHS note to "jealous".

Finally, Sun Wanhui thought about it again and added a sentence at the end - (suspected to be her son's girlfriend)

After doing this, Sun Wanhui put the matter behind her for the time being.

Now that Xu Xing has finished the college entrance examination, Sun Wanhui is very satisfied with the high score of 499. In addition, she will go to college soon. She can no longer restrict her son from falling in love. She even wants him to find a girl to fall in love with.

.

It’s just that it’s not easy to ask too many questions now, so as not to cause unnecessary influence and pressure, so Sun Wanhui put her phone away, changed the subject and said: “I’ve thought about it, and I plan to recruit a few more employees in the near future to help me share the burden.

Let’s talk about something in the store.”

"It's a good thing." Xu Xing nodded, sat on the sofa, picked up an orange from the small basket on the coffee table, and peeled it, "Now that you make so much money, you can indeed recruit a few employees, otherwise you would have to pay just to send express delivery every day.

So exhausted."

Before, when there were only twenty or thirty orders a day, Sun Wanhui could handle it all by herself.

But now the daily order volume has reached hundreds, and when the traffic increases on weekends, it can even reach two to three hundred orders.

You know, the express delivery business these days is not as advanced as that of later generations, and part of the information on the express delivery bill needs to be written directly by hand.

Recently, Sun Wanhui has been busy sending couriers every day. She writes hundreds of courier orders by hand in a day, plus she has to run to buy goods from time to time. She is really busy.

So much so these days, she has been leaving early and coming back late, spending all day working in the shop.

If it weren't for the real money in hand, everyone would probably be exhausted.

Calculating the income for nearly a month now, if it can continue to be maintained in the future, such a large profit margin is enough for Sun Wanhui to recruit a few more employees to help her share some repetitive labor.

"Then what do you think we should pay attention to in the future of this online store?" Sun Wanhuichun regarded it as training for her son and asked him a question to use his brain.

Moreover, the idea of ​​opening an online store was originally thought up by Xu Xing. These days, young people's brains and ideas are more in line with the trend. Sun Wanhui also wanted to hear her son's thoughts and suggestions.

Xu Xing lacked the opportunity to communicate with his mother about this matter, so he sorted out his thoughts, and then simply said: "The first thing is that you, Mom, are looking for employees."

"Now there are only a few things in the store. One is the customer service of the online store, which needs to be handled by people who are patient and have a little bit of computer knowledge."

"The second is to send express packages and sort them. This requires more attentive employees. If the order volume increases in the future, you can consider finding two or three. In the early stage, you can ask customer service employees to also help."

"The third is to purchase goods and be responsible for carrying goods to the store for sorting. It is best to be a boy who can do hard work and be able to drive."

"Calculating it this way, that's the cost of three to four labors, which totals about 15,000 to 20,000 per month. It's okay to lower it even lower. You can give a low price first, and then increase the salary based on performance."

Sun Wanhui sat on the sofa. At first she had the leisure to drink water and listen slowly, but as she listened, she stopped drinking water and began to remember what her son said seriously.

She really didn't expect that Xu Xing seemed to have a talent for business.

Although what we are talking about now is just a very simple employee recruitment issue, for a high school student who has just completed the college entrance examination, it is already quite outstanding to be able to explain employee needs in such detail.

There were even some details that Sun Wanhui didn't think through because she hadn't officially recruited people yet.

For example, customer service needs to know a little bit about computers, which is actually a bit of a requirement.

After all, this is not the future. Although the Internet has become more popular compared to previous years, there may not be many ordinary workers who have actually touched a computer.

Not to mention that they are required to be able to type and operate the computer interface, so that they will not operate randomly because they do not understand computers, causing problems with orders or handling special situations.

Another example is asking customer service to help you send the express together, which can save a little labor cost in the early stage, which is also a bit silly.

At least normal high school students would never think of such details.

After all, customer service is really busy when customers come to ask questions, but if no one comes to ask questions, it is really idle.

Sun Wanhui is very clear about this. With the current order volume of one to two hundred orders per day, it is estimated that not even one-third of the customers will actually inquire in the background.

And most of them only ask some simple questions, and rarely come to try to bargain. If you are just serving as customer service, it is relatively easy.

"That's very good. It's pretty much what your mother thought." Sun Wanhui took another sip of water, tried her best to maintain her authority as a mother, and asked tentatively, "Is there anything else to add?"

"Yes." Xu Xing nodded and continued, "After we talk about the employees, we have to talk about your mission, Mom."

"Huh? Tell me about it."

"Since the employees have done the most tiring work, then Mom, you have to be responsible for the mental work of the online store." Xu Xing thought about it for a moment and then said, "The most important thing is actually the high-frequency testing of new products."

"It just needs to be new, right?" Sun Wanhui, who has been working in a clothing store for more than ten years, is quite familiar with the upgrading of clothing styles.

"Yes, they are new clothes." Xu Xing nodded, but added, "But Mom, you have to know one thing in advance."

"What's going on?"

"With the development of the Internet in our country, especially with the development of smart phones like this," Xu Xing raised his Pineapple phone and shook it, "In the future, everyone can use their mobile phones to shop online, and everyone can sell things online.

By that time, clothing styles will definitely change very quickly."

"This does not mean all kinds of fancy clothes, but that on the basis of those basic styles, the competition between merchants is to see who can discover new hot styles the fastest."

"To give a simple example, a well-known female star becomes popular on a show, and the clothes she wears are very tasteful. If we take the lead in seizing this hot spot and find a foundry to produce a batch of xx stars' same style clothes, we will have a certain chance.

Cultivate a popular piece of clothing."

"This requires you, Mom, to always pay attention to some hot news, especially things like gossip variety shows and entertainment that cater to the female market, find business opportunities from them, and then convert them into products as quickly as possible, test new products, and mass-produce them.

Hot item.”

"If you can really do this, mom, you can open a clothing brand company in the future, specializing in this kind of mass-produced hot-selling business. It will definitely make more money than a physical store in the future."

Having said this, Xu Xing slowly stuffed the orange he had just peeled into his mouth.

Sun Wanhui, who was sitting on the sofa opposite, had already sat upright and was deep in thought. Her mind was surrounded by what her son had just said, and she was having a fierce collision and game with her own traditional concepts.

She originally just wanted to hear if her son had any innovative ideas in this regard.

But what she didn't expect was that the new idea was indeed novel enough, but this thing was so new that it actually impacted the inherent concepts in Sun Wanhui's mind.

And when it comes to the Internet, Sun Wanhui still maintains a cautious attitude, and is a little unable to accept these overly advanced ideas mentioned by Xu Xing.

But only Xu Xing knows that those companies that can make big money in the e-commerce field in the future have basically formed a very complete industrial chain for mass production of popular products.

The creative design department specializes in collecting various hot spots on the Internet, and publishes design drawings of new clothing based on relevant hot spots, and submits them to the planning department and production department for discussion.

From hundreds of design drawings, select the products that pass the discussion, notify the foundry to produce a small amount, and then hand them over to the sales department to test the new products online.

The results will be available within a week. If the sales data is good, it can be further mass-produced. At the same time, it will be handed over to the publicity department to pour publicity resources based on traffic and try to create a hit product.

The ideas that Xu Xing provides to Sun Wanhui are still at the most superficial and rough stage, far from being as sophisticated as those of later generations.

But it was enough for Sun Wanhui to digest it for a long time.
