On Monday, Song Shi had a rare day off.

She decided to go for a walk in the city.

Liuquan Mountain is not far from the urban area of ​​Jingyun District, so Song Shi took a taxi directly.

Two months after the park opened, although all the amusement value had been spent, the turnover in her bank account had not been touched.

The business district has not yet opened for business in the morning.

Song Shi randomly found a coffee shop to have breakfast.

She ordered an iced Americano and a chocolate bagel and sat down at a window seat.

There weren't many people in the store, and she was the only customer dining in.

Several customers came in one after another and hurriedly packed up their food to take away.

It’s Monday after all, Song Shi sighed.

I can be said to have taken a holiday during off-peak hours.

There is only one employee in the store, and the number of tourists decreases visibly after 9 o'clock.

Song Shi finished the meal on the table and looked at his watch.

There is still half an hour until the mall opens.

The employee at the counter was also looking out of the store bored.

Song Shi took the initiative to walk forward and leaned against the counter, ready to chat with the employees and kill time.

"You only have one employee today?" Song Shi said.

The employee sighed helplessly, "There was originally another employee, but the salary offered by the store was too low and he ran away."

"Then why don't you leave?"

"Me?" The female clerk pointed at herself to confirm with Song Shi.

Then he turned sideways mysteriously and covered his mouth with one hand.

Song Shi thought there was some inside story, so he stretched out his ears to listen.

As a result, the clerk stopped 20 centimeters away from Song Shi and did not move any closer.

Speaking at a normal volume, he said, "Because I'm the store manager."

Song Shi was stunned, and then he remembered the question he had just asked, and his ears turned red.

The two looked at each other.

It would have been fine if they hadn't looked at each other, but as soon as they did, the store manager and Song Shi both laughed at the same time.

After a while, Song Shi and the store manager calmed down.

"You know the reason and you still pay your employees so little. It would be strange if they didn't leave."

Hearing Song Shi's words, the store manager's face was filled with worry.

"You don't know, in our small county, there aren't that many coffee drinkers. They can't buy much. Many office workers go to chain coffee shops, and there aren't many people drinking our own boutique coffee."

"We can't make much money at all, let alone pay high wages to our employees," the store manager added.

"I think the bread here tastes very good..." Song Shi wanted to comfort him, but he was interrupted by the store manager before he could finish his words.

"Everyone can have breakfast outside for less than 10 yuan. Only a few people would buy bread for more than 9 yuan for breakfast. I rely on afternoon tea time and before o'clock to attract customers."

The store manager looked visibly lonely.

The decline of coffee shops in county towns can be traced.

Residents in county towns generally have low incomes, and their consumption concepts and eating habits are also limited. Coupled with the impact of cheap chain brands, the business of independent coffee shops will be further affected.

For example, I can choose to eat bread or fried dough sticks for breakfast. There is no difference in appetite between the two. Then I will definitely give priority to the food that is cheaper and can fill me up.

Song Shi also felt sorry for the store manager. She had just tasted the food in the store and it was indeed delicious.

People like Song Shi no longer have to rely on money, so they can choose whatever they want to eat.

You can buy soy milk for 2 yuan or coffee for 2 or 30 yuan.

According to the current trend of the store, it may go bankrupt within a few months.

Song Shi really felt sorry for the talent. There were not many independent coffee shops in the county, let alone those with excellent taste and quality.

A thought flashed through Song Shi's mind.

"Manager, have you ever thought about setting up a stall outside?"

"Setting up a stall?" the store manager asked doubtfully. "Even if we set it up outside, no one will buy it. Everyone has different dietary preferences. Why don't we all buy the cheaper breakfast if we're all setting up stalls? Unless the customers have both money and time."

"Bingo!" Song Shi snapped his fingers.

"I know where there are customers who have both money and time."

"Where?" The store manager was attracted by Song Shi's words.

"Do you know the Fantasy Amusement Park near Liuquan Mountain?"

"Yeah, I heard the entertainment facilities there are really fun. Even though it's only been open for less than a month, the park is already incredibly popular."

When the amusement park manager was mentioned, her eyes lit up and she hurriedly told Song Shi what she had heard from the Internet.

"As you know, there are a lot of people entering the park every day. There are already a lot of people lining up before the park opens, so I suggest you set up a stall outside the park ticket gate."

It was not unreasonable for Song Shi to make this suggestion.

Every day before the park opens, there is already a long queue outside the door.

The park doesn’t open until 10 o’clock, and the cafeteria doesn’t open until 11:.

Some tourists who arrived early may not even have breakfast.

Letting the coffee shop manager set up a stall at the door not only takes care of the health of tourists, but also helps the coffee shop business. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?

"The entrance to the amusement park is a private area, so stalls shouldn't be allowed there." The store manager suddenly thought of this problem and then smiled bitterly.

I really want to do it, but I don’t have the strength to do it.

"Ahem." Song Shi pretended to cough, then extended a hand. "I haven't introduced myself to you yet. Hello, I'm Song Shi, the director of Fantasy Amusement Park."

The coffee shop manager was so shocked that his jaw dropped, and then he reacted and held Song Shi's hand.

"Hello, I'm Yuan Ningning."

"So you mean I can set up a stall outside the park." Yuan Ningning confirmed.

Song Shi responded in the affirmative.

"Thank you, thank you." If Yuan Ningning and Song Shi weren't separated by a small counter, she would have wanted to hug Song Shi directly.

This is truly a blessing from heaven.

Yuan Ningning has even planned her business hours. She will sell in her own coffee shop before 9 o'clock, and set up a stall outside Song Shi's amusement park after 9 o'clock before the cafeteria opens.

That's a lot of business opportunities.

Yuan Ningning decided to customize a stall cart tomorrow.

No! Go now!

Song Shi is not short of money now, and tourists in the park really need to eat breakfast.

Therefore, Song Shi did not make any additional demands on Yuan Ningning or ask her for a deposit for setting up a stall.

After negotiating with Yuan Ningning, Song Shi looked at the time and went directly to the largest shopping mall in the city.

The employees of the stores in the mall did not show any of the scenes of treating people differently based on their status like in TV dramas. After all, such people are still a minority.

A few hours later, Song Shi took away several large bags full of things, seeing the smiling faces of the sales clerks.

Finding a deserted corner, Song Shi took out the magic gourd he had obtained before.

Finally, I have found a place to use my skills.

After she put several large bags of things into the magic gourd, she put the magic gourd back into the game.

Seeing that he had nothing else to buy, Song Shi left the mall and took a taxi back to the amusement park.
