Reborn as a girl and school beauty

2 day

The two refused the request of the dean of the music conservatory to stay. Although Yang Lingxin liked many things here, she had to leave, and her parents might not agree.

On the high-speed train back home

"Lingxin, why do you like music so much? When I met you before, you didn't really play music." Chen Lian asked

Yang Lingxin smiled, looked at the passing scenery outside the window and said, "Actually, I liked it when I was a child, but something happened later, and I hid this love."

Chen Lian leaned closer curiously: "What's going on? Can you tell me?"

Yang Lingxin was silent for a moment before she slowly spoke, "I used to be very interested in music and had a talent for it, but because I had to inherit the family business, I couldn't have other hobbies, so I had to suppress my love for music."

Chen Lian held Yang Lingxin's hand and comforted her, "Things are better now. You can pursue your musical dream again."

Yang Lingxin shook her head slightly. "It's not that simple. Dad once smashed the electronic piano I'd saved up for my pocket money. Even now, he wouldn't necessarily let me pursue a career in music. After all, I'm the eldest child, and the family business will definitely be passed on to me. He definitely wouldn't support it."

Chen Lian's eyes lit up: "Then you can learn secretly. As long as you make some progress, your father-in-law will definitely change his mind."

Yang Lingxin said helplessly: "Forget it, forget it, just play music for fun, some things can't be changed."

Chen Lian nodded and thought for a moment before saying, "No wonder you learn everything so quickly. It's a waste of a good talent. But it doesn't matter. Although managing a company is indeed tiring, we can't avoid it."

After going home

After they packed up their things, they went to the store to take a look. Song Wei and Lin Xinyi were also a little surprised at their current situation. They thought Chen Lian and Yang Lingxin would decide to stay in Fengle College, but they didn't expect them to go back?

"Manager, Deputy Manager, why are you back? I thought you would stay at Fengle College." Song Wei said with a smile

"No, this guy didn't want to stay there, so we came back." Yang Lingxin looked at Chen Lian and said

"I said I came back by myself, but you stayed there. You didn't stay anywhere, so you can't blame me." Chen Lian said angrily.

"Alright, alright, stop arguing." Song Wei quickly tried to smooth things over. "Now that we're back, we need to plan the development of the store."

Lin Xinyi also agreed: "Yes, there are several similar stores opened nearby recently, and the competition is quite intense."

After hearing this, Yang Lingxin's eyes became determined: "Then we have to think of ways to attract customers. Maybe we can launch some special activities."

Chen Lian touched his chin and thought for a moment before saying, "We can hold a small exhibition or some small event."

Yang Lingxin hesitated a little: "Look at the sales volume these days. It's true. We have been losing money. Honey, if it really doesn't work out, let's sell the store or open a dessert shop."

Chen Lian was a little hesitant. After all, the millet shop was her favorite. She looked at the running water again and sighed, "Last month we lost 18,000, and the month before that we lost nearly 2.5. It's up to you guys, then. I'll leave it to you."

Song Wei waved her hands hurriedly, "Let's reconsider transferring the store. Opening a dessert shop is a good idea, but we don't have much money to invest in it right now."

Lin Xinyi also nodded, "Besides, we don't know much about making desserts. If we want to open a dessert shop, we have to learn everything from scratch."

Yang Lingxin sighed, "There's no shortage of capital investment, I just don't want to see the losses continue."

Chen Lian gritted her teeth and said, "How about we try the special event we mentioned earlier? Let's start with a small millet-themed exhibition. The cost is relatively low, and if the effect is good, we can attract some customers back."

Everyone agreed it was feasible. So, over the next few days, the four of them divided up the work. Song Wei contacted millet enthusiasts to borrow exhibits, Lin Xinyi worked on the store's interior, and Yang Lingxin and Chen Lian worked together on promotional posters and online promotion. Finally, on the opening day of the small exhibition, no more than 20 people came to the store.

The four people's hanging hearts finally died.

Seeing the few customers around, several people looked frustrated. Just then, a sudden commotion erupted from the doorway. A group of young people in bizarre costumes approached the store. They were members of an anime club who had stumbled upon the Guzi Store's promotional poster online and, finding it intriguing, had come to check it out.

When they walked into the store, they were immediately captivated by the various millet exhibits. One girl excitedly said, "Wow, there are so many rare millets! This is truly a treasure shop!" The club members began to select the items, taking photos and sharing them on social media.

The store's popularity skyrocketed. The four people, who had been disappointed, regained hope. As more and more people saw the news online and rushed in, the store became bustling with activity.

At the end of the day, sales were surprisingly higher than ever before. Chen Lian excitedly hugged everyone and said, "It seems that as long as we find the right direction, our millet shop will definitely get better and better." The others nodded, their hearts filled with enthusiasm.

Dinner at the restaurant

"Do you want to open a dessert shop or continue running the millet shop?" Yang Lingxin asked

"Although today's turnover is quite high, it's hard for you to stop losing money. Oh, why don't you open a dessert shop?" Chen Lian said after hesitating for a long time.

Lin Xinyi frowned. "But we've invested so much effort in Guzidian. Is it really okay to give up now?" Song Wei nodded. "Besides, today's success shows that Guzidian still has potential."

Chen Lian sighed, "I know you're reluctant, and so am I. But in the long run, a dessert shop has a wider audience and greater profit margins."

After thinking for a moment, Yang Lingxin said, "Why don't we try the millet shop for a while. If it still doesn't work out, we can switch to opening a dessert shop. During this time, we can run the millet shop while learning about dessert making. We can have both hands on deck."

They looked at each other and thought this was a good idea. So in the following days, while working hard to run the millet shop, they also used their spare time to research desserts.

However, the business of Guzi Store gradually returned to its former quiet state, but they learned more and more about desserts, and their desserts were well received by their friends. In the end, the four decided to close Guzi Store and start their own dessert shop journey, looking forward to the new beginning to bring new vitality and energy.
