In the time-traveler chat group, am I the only one on Earth?

"These are some shops that Weiwei and I have found recently. Take a look."

Shen Weiwei is more capable than Shu Yutong, but since she is unfamiliar with the place, Shu Yutong is currently the one guiding her through this work.

They compiled all the information about the shop's size, rent, location, and the tenants and landlord into a table and sent it to Lu Yun's phone.

Lu Yun glanced at them and then carefully selected two.

Neither shop is very large, one is 42 square meters and the other is 48 square meters, which is a perfect size for a milk tea shop.

A 42-square-meter apartment costs 12,000 yuan a month.

A 48-square-meter apartment costs 20,000 yuan a month.

2 a month is a bit pricey, but the location in the commercial street is excellent, so there's not much else to do.

"The rent is paid annually, increasing by 5% each year, but the landlord promised not to make us move out for any reason within three years."

Twenty thousand a month, that's six hundred and sixty-six a day.

Including labor and electricity costs, the daily cost is approximately 1200-1500.

按照一杯奶茶成本2.5-3元，售价15元计算，每天要卖100-120杯才够本钱。

Lu Yun was quite confident in his product, so he nodded after only a moment's thought.

"Okay, that's settled then. Have you contacted the renovation team yet?"

"These are quotes from various renovation companies; we're just waiting for your decision!!"

Shu Yutong sent another form.

It must be said that these two women are quite reliable in handling matters.

The reputation, size, and pricing of the renovation company were all detailed.

Which renovation company do you think is better?

“We both agree that Mohan and Yijing are good companies. They are not only large enough, but also have good reputations and reasonable prices.”

"Then let's choose these two companies. Have them work day and night to finish the shop renovations as soon as possible. Wages are not a problem."

"it is good!"

After giving instructions on the renovation, Lu Yun didn't bother with anything else and left it all to the two women.

Next, Lu Yun reported the results of the battle to Li Zhou.

It's certain that his childhood friend, Gong Jianqiang, will be arrested.

Although he was also a victim, Li Zhou, whom he had deceived, died, and Peng Lu made a mistake.

Therefore, his imprisonment became inevitable.

As for the others? Detention, interrogation, and imprisonment are no longer Lu Yun's concern.

Two days later, Lu Yun returned to Rongcheng and immediately began arranging other work upon arriving home.

Renting employee dormitories, arranging store positions, and recruiting store employees, etc.

The staff dormitories are simple. As long as it's not a new building, even if you rent a place nearby, it will only cost around 20,000 yuan a year.

There's one dormitory room for men and one for women, costing just over 40,000 yuan.

As for the position?

Xu Bin's wife, Li Hongmei, was initially in charge of purchasing, and after things were streamlined, she continued to work as his accountant.

My daily responsibility is to calculate the store's revenue.

Shen Weiwei is the store manager, responsible for decoration and recruitment.

Shu Yutong will temporarily serve as Shen Weiwei's assistant, responsible for helping Shen Weiwei open the two shops.

"The initial investment for the two shops, including renovations and equipment, is around one million, but that's a minor issue... The most important thing now is, who will make this milk tea powder?"

Chapter 56 Seeing Deng Sha Again

Li Zhou gave out three kinds of milk tea powder: jade flavor, coconut flavor, and fruit flavor.

It was all done using an automatic milk tea machine.

This is Lu Yun's reliance on opening the shop, and also the key to whether Lu Yun's milk tea shop can succeed.

Calling it a trade secret is no exaggeration.

The fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better.

Lu Yun's idea was very simple.

Li Zhou can send me a machine every day, and I can use these machines to set up a place here that is similar to a central kitchen.

It is specifically used to make milk tea powder.

No matter how many branches we open in the future, all the milk tea powder will be supplied by this central kitchen.

Although making milk tea powder doesn't require any special skills, it does require some conscientious and responsible people to use these machines every day.

Even some people who move or deliver goods must be trustworthy, otherwise problems are very likely to occur.

With that in mind, Lu Yun made a phone call to Xu Bin.

Previously, under Lu Yun's instructions, Xu Bin had already resigned from his job in his hometown, but there were still many things that had not been settled.

For example, forgetting to bring personal items or driver's license.

Later, when Lu Yun went to Greentown, he didn't have time to handle these matters.

Therefore, he did not return to Rongcheng with Lu Yun this time, but went directly back to Linquan County.

"Old Xu, do you have any reliable people you could recommend for a job here?"

After the incident with the pyramid scheme, Lu Yun and Xu Bin's relationship became much closer.

He spoke much more casually.

At this time, Li Hongmei went out to research supply channels, while Shu Yutong and Shen Weiwei were busy renting and decorating a shop.

The entire living room of the villa was now empty except for Lu Yun, the nanny, and the two sick children.

The two little kids belong to Lin Chen and Xu Bin, and the nanny was hired by Shu Yutong at Lu Yun's request to take care of them.

Hearing Lu Yun's words, Xu Bin smiled awkwardly: "Hehe, most of the people I know are already married, and none of them live in Rongcheng."

"It doesn't seem realistic to ask them to abandon their families and come here."

"Too........"

Xu Bin agreed to come here because he wanted to get medical treatment for his daughter.

Otherwise, only a fool would willingly leave their homeland.

But... if Xu Bin doesn't have anyone on his side, then I don't have anyone on my side either.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yun fell into deep thought.

After my father's factory went bankrupt, he ran a small business in his hometown. Although he didn't earn much, he was still able to make ends meet.

It doesn't seem quite right to ask them to give up their family business and come work here.

As for those relatives? I lost contact with them long ago when my father's factory went bankrupt.

If friends and family don't work, then I'll have to look in chat groups.

Li Susu's daughter, Chu Xiaoqiao, is in school, while Lin Chen's wife, Shen Weiwei, has joined his side.

Besides them, are Li Zhou and Su Chen's parents the only ones left?

Li Zhou's parents are currently unaware that he is dead, but the pyramid scheme has been dismantled, and they believe they will receive notification from the police in a few days.

They probably wouldn't be in the mood to work after receiving news of their son's death, right?

Thinking of this, Lu Yun discussed it with Su Chen again.

After obtaining Su Chen's consent, he directly called his parents.

"Aunt Liu, how is Uncle Su's recovery?"

"Xiao Lu, you are truly a miracle doctor. Aimin's health has almost fully recovered."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while and confirming that Su Aimin had recovered somewhat, Lu Yun directly stated his purpose.

"That's good. I called you this time for two main reasons: one is to ask about Uncle's health, and the other is that Su Chen appeared in my dream again last night."

"Huh? What did he say to you?"

"He asked me to bring you to the city to take care of you..."

Upon hearing this, the couple was incredibly excited.

The fact that their son was still thinking of them even after he died brought tears to their eyes.

However, they are also aware of their own limitations.

Lu Yun is not their biological son after all, so what kind of logic is it to let Lu Yun take care of their lives?

However, when Lu Yun said that he needed help, the old couple agreed without hesitation.

"We'll come as soon as Aimin is fully recovered!"

These are Liu Suhua's exact words to Lu Yun.

Su Chen is about the same age as Lu Yun, and Su Aimin and his wife are naturally not much older either.

He's only in his forties.

In addition, their family did not farm, and they had lost their source of income due to health reasons.

In this situation, they would naturally agree to Lu Yun's request in order to find emotional support.

“Perfect timing. The shop renovation will take some time, and that should be enough time for Su Chen’s father to recover.”

After saying this, Lu Yun stretched and lay down.

.........

Having resolved the core employee issue, Lu Yun had nothing else to do for the time being.

Seeing that no new people were joining the time traveler chat group, he decided to buy a car.
