Chapter 130 This young shop assistant who's doing quite well... please calm down.
That morning, the sun was shining brightly but not intensely. To the right of the entrance to Room 302 on Xiaodong Street, a milk tea window quietly appeared.
Shen Kang didn't hold a special opening ceremony or invite anyone else, since this thing was originally just an accessory to the 302 study room.
He simply showed up to oversee the business on the very first day of opening, which shows he takes it seriously.
Ouyang Yu didn't come today, and I don't know what he went to do. Only Zhu Jingdong was standing behind the counter with him, but they could still make milk tea.
When they were developing milk tea, Shen Kang specifically emphasized that the production process should be simplified and standardized as much as possible, so that even someone who doesn't know anything about tea could master the production process after a period of training.
In the past few days, they have spent a lot of time on the standardization of this process. For example, the method of brewing tea according to the standard time and temperature, and then adding ice to quickly cool the tea soup, is a standardized process that everyone has worked together to develop. Employees do not need to know tea like Ouyang Yu. They only need to follow this process to make a standardized milk tea that meets Shen Kang's requirements.
So now, whether it's Shen Kang or Zhu Jingdong, they can both operate independently and brew a standardized cup of "Yan Yu Cha Ji" (a type of tea) version of "Bo Ya Jue Xian" (a type of tea).
At this moment, Zhu Jingdong stood at the window, wearing long sleeves.
To prevent Zhu Jingdong's tattoos from causing psychological distress to customers, Shen Kang specifically instructed him to wear long sleeves and button up his collar from now on.
Zhu Jingdong didn't develop any resentment towards this: he was always bullied when he was in junior high school, so he got these tattoos to make himself look intimidating. However, after several years of struggling in society, he realized that these tattoos only made him more ostracized. So he had wanted to remove them for a long time, but he was always too poor to afford it.
So he doesn't mind wearing long sleeves to cover up his tattoos at all in the future.
Zhu Jingdong's mind is not on tattoos at all right now; he is only hoping that their milk tea will be a success, ultimately defeating Wonka Milk Tea and driving it out of Yangko University of Science and Technology!
Therefore, Zhu Jingdong was even more proactive than the boss, Shen Kang, and took the initiative to stand in the street-facing position, eager to get the first customer.
Just then, a girl walked past the door.
Zhu Jingdong's eyes lit up—he knew this girl; he knew she was a hardcore bubble tea enthusiast, financially well-off, and a highly desirable customer for bubble tea shops. If anyone on the Yangko University campus was most likely to try their expensive Yanyu Chaji bubble tea, this girl would definitely be number one among Zhu Jingdong's acquaintances!
"Zhang, student!"
Zhu Jingdong immediately greeted him.
The girl passing by outside the door is Zhang Yunmeng.
Hearing someone call her name, Zhang Yunmeng looked in the direction of the voice and saw Zhu Jingdong standing behind the counter. She was taken aback.
Of course, she knew Zhu Jingdong. Back when Little Pig Milk Tea was still open, she was a loyal customer and was friends with the owner, the owner's wife, and this Zhu Jingdong, much like her current relationship with Bi Xiangyu.
After the Little Pig Milk Tea shop went out of business, she hadn't seen Zhu Jingdong for a long time. Once, she saw a worker carrying goods at the back door of a boutique supermarket on Xiaodong Street, whose back looked a bit like Zhu Jingdong, but she didn't go up to identify him.
"Brother Zhu."
Zhang Yunmeng responded and walked over. "You're back at Yangon University of Science and Technology again?"
As she spoke, Zhang Yunmeng also looked at the window in front of her:
This is a small bar facing the street. Inside is a small space with some equipment for making milk tea, ice makers, and other things. The milk tea cups and packaging bags were all custom-made by the manufacturer and are neatly arranged.
Above, below the sign for Study Room 302, is a newly added rectangular sign.
On the left side of the signboard is a simplified image of a female Peking Opera performer, simple yet eye-catching. On the right side, there are two rows: the top row displays the English word "CHAGEE," and the bottom row displays the four traditional Chinese characters "烟雨茶姬" (Yan Yu Cha Ji).
A few days ago, Zhang Yunmeng had seen a job posting for a milk tea shop assistant outside the 302 study room. Now, seeing the equipment and milk tea cups inside, she immediately understood that this stall was the 302 shop.
A newly opened self-operated milk tea shop in the study room.
Zhang Yunmeng looked at the sign and found it quite novel. She couldn't tell that it was a milk tea shop sign—judging from the Peking Opera woman image and the name "Yanyu Chaji" (meaning "Rainy Tea Princess"), it looked more like a traditional teahouse sign.
Hearing Zhang Yunmeng's words, Zhu Jingdong smiled and said, "I've never left Yangke University. Before, I was working as a deliveryman at a supermarket. Now that a milk tea shop has opened here and they're hiring, I came here to work. It's like I'm going back to my old profession."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yunmeng realized that the figure she had seen at the boutique supermarket was indeed Zhu Jingdong.
Zhu Jingdong then asked, "By the way, where are you going?"
Zhang Yunmeng remained silent, as if she hadn't heard.
She was about to go to Wonka Milk Tea to buy a cup of milk tea to take to the classroom. Now that Zhu Jingdong had started making milk tea again, she felt embarrassed to say this in front of him.
Even without her saying anything, Zhu Jingdong could guess. "You're going to Wonka Milk Tea, right? How about trying our milk tea? It's made with real milk and real tea leaves, smooth and rich, a taste you've definitely never experienced before!"
Zhu Jingdong enthusiastically recommended it.
Zhang Yunmeng subconsciously glanced at the shop's menu again: On the bar counter facing the street, there were two large menus, one facing inwards for the customers in study room 302, and the other facing outwards for passersby.
The menu currently only has one product name, "Bo Ya Jue Xian," and a price of "12 yuan."
Zhang Yunmeng looked at the menu and was speechless. She had drunk a lot of milk tea, from well-known chain brands to all sorts of small shops, but she had never seen a milk tea shop that only offered one product. Moreover, the price of this product was outrageously high, unlike anything she had ever seen before.
These days, most milk teas at milk tea shops cost between 6 and 8 yuan. Zhang Yunmeng had never actually seen a milk tea that cost 12 yuan before.
Subconsciously, he declined: "Uh, Brother Zhu, I'm sorry, I have something to do."
As he spoke, he wanted to leave as soon as possible.
Watching from behind, Shen Kang thought to himself, "Zhu Jingdong is really enthusiastic, with high work ethic; he's a good employee. However, the price is definitely a deterrent. It seems the only way to break through is to start with the guests in study room 302."
When Zhu Jingdong saw Zhang Yunmeng running away, seemingly because he thought their milk tea was too expensive and wanted to buy milk tea from Wonka, he suddenly became anxious: he was so eager for revenge and to defeat Wonka Milk Tea, and he really wanted their Misty Rain Tea Girl to succeed as soon as possible and to get their first customer.
For the milk tea shop, Zhang Yunmeng is a very high-quality customer.
So he actually reached out and grabbed Zhang Yunmeng's arm, lowering his voice: "Buy one, I'm not kidding, it's really delicious! And you don't want Bi Xiangyu to know what you said before about him and Wonka Milk Tea, right?"
"6
,
Shen Kang's face darkened. He wanted to reach out and stop Zhu Jingdong, saying, "Hey, you little clerk who's living a good life, please calm down."
As a result, Zhang Yunmeng trembled and actually stopped walking.
Zhu Jingdong continued in a low voice, urging, "It's really delicious! That thick, viscous texture is incomparable to the thin, watery stuff you get at Wonka. It's a kind of satisfaction you'll never experience at Wonka!"
'
Shen Kang really wanted to reflect on why the people he knew were so abstract.
After a moment of silence, Zhang Yunmeng actually said, "Then let's have a drink."
She felt that paying 12 yuan was a much smaller and more worthwhile price to pay compared to Zhu Jingdong's threats. So, she quickly paid, bought the milk tea, and left.
"Alright!" Zhu Jingdong beamed and released Zhang Yunmeng.
Zhang Yunmeng paid the money, and Zhu Jingdong started making milk tea. After a while, the milk tea was ready and handed to Zhang Yunmeng.
Shen Kang finally pulled Zhu Jingdong aside and said earnestly, "Jingdong, this isn't how you do business. What's the difference between you and a robber?"
Zhu Jingdong was also a little embarrassed. "I'm sorry, boss, I was just too eager to open for business—but boss, why didn't you stop me just now?"
Shen Kang thought to himself, "I'm a fucking entertainer; I was just too busy watching the fun."
However, having seen the fun, it was time to offer some guidance. Zhu Jingdong's work methods couldn't be allowed to continue: "I can see that you have a lot of enthusiasm for your work, which is a good thing, but doing business also requires methods and approaches. You can't force people to buy or sell."
While Shen Kang was rambling on, Zhang Yunmeng angrily held the cup of milk tea that cost as much as 12 yuan.
However, her attention was quickly drawn to the milk tea cup.
This cup's design is similar to many other milk tea cups available in other stores, but the pattern on it is quite unique. It features an intricate abstract design in an overall dark blue tone, along with the logo of the Peking Opera woman from the brand "Yan Yu Cha Ji" and the CHAGEE logo. While intricate upon closer inspection, it appears simple at first glance, showcasing a strong sense of design and giving it a sophisticated feel.
This thing was designed by Shen Kang himself, directly copying the design of the later Overlord. Of course, the Overlord also "borrowed" from LV.
"It looks pretty good."
Thinking this, Zhang Yunmeng felt her anger subside a little. No matter how expensive it was, at least the cup was pretty, and girls are naturally powerless against pretty things.
Then she picked up the straw, inserted it, and started drinking.
Since I've already bought it, I might as well drink it.
However, Zhang Yunmeng didn't have high expectations for this milk tea. Even though Zhu Jingdong had just said how good their milk tea was, a milk tea shop that only makes one type of milk tea will inevitably produce a somewhat rudimentary milk tea, making it difficult to have high expectations.
Zhang Yunmeng was even prepared to throw it away if it tasted really bad and then go to Wonka to buy another cup.
After taking one bite, her eyes suddenly lit up.
