Chapter 242 The Breakfast Shop Owner and the Man He Picked Up (6)
The Breakfast Shop Owner and the Man He Picked Up (Sixteen)
The total cost of materials for a simple shop renovation this month is 3,678, and the labor cost is negligible because he did it himself.
He bought the newly added tables and chairs online. The other party was an ambitious second-generation rich man who started a business but was suppressed by his family and had to give up the store. After he "comforted with kind words", he regrouped and planned to go back to inherit a billion-dollar fortune, and gave the tables and chairs to him for free.
Not only did they give it away for free, they also considerately paid for the shipping fee. It was worth it for him to persuade people to go back and inherit the 10 billion fortune. This was what he deserved.
As for the newly installed air conditioner, one was bought in a shopping mall to replace a second-hand one, which cost him eight hundred yuan. The other two in the kitchen and bedroom were old air conditioners replaced from a regular customer's home, but the quality was better and more durable than the new one, which cost him six hundred yuan.
As for the manual labor, it was still his own, so he still ignored it.
With a pen spinning and jumping between his fingertips, Lance quickly wrote down the expenses.
This month he hired a total of three people, and their combined monthly salary is 10,000 yuan. In addition, the store has gradually changed from serving only breakfast to mainly serving regular meals, and the small canteen business is also gradually getting on track.
He also spent some time thinking about the ingredients used in the store. The rice is an agricultural product produced in a certain province, and he found a suitable channel to purchase it. It is cheaper than buying rice locally and the quality is much better.
The vegetables and meat are basically local, but he has now found a suitable supply base, and there are basically no problems with quality inspection.
The only thing about seafood is that they are close to the river rather than the sea, so they mainly rely on river fish. But at present, people have a good acceptance and there is no major problem.
At present, excluding labor, water, electricity and other expenses, the net profit has reached nearly 30,000 yuan per month.
Lance was very satisfied with this.
After all, Song Ning could only save 30,000 yuan a year from running the small breakfast shop. He took advantage of the month when Song Ning started school to spend a lot of Song Ning's savings. Now he can achieve such a profit while maintaining the original basis, and he is very satisfied.
As long as I can maintain my current state and accompany Song Ning to finish his senior year of high school, I can close this small shop successfully.
Lance put down his pen and stretched, revealing his delicate collarbone and a fair and handsome neck above the collar of his white shirt.
"Lance, I'm back."
Suddenly there was a voice outside the door. Lance was startled, and all his laziness and fatigue disappeared.
When he walked out of the room, he saw Song Ning looking around with his eyes wide open, carrying a bag on one shoulder.
Lance immediately smiled, "What's wrong Ningning, don't you recognize your home?"
“I don’t recognize it.”
Song Ning opened his mouth wide and didn't react when the schoolbag on his shoulder was taken away.
This month, Lance asked him for his savings, saying that he wanted to renovate the store to expand the business and hire some people. He agreed, but if he remembered correctly, didn't Lance only ask him for 30,000 yuan?
"Lance, are you sure you only spent thirty thousand dollars here?"
"Of course, I just did the account."
Lance led him back to the room, and a cool breeze immediately swept away the heat on Song Ning's body. He stood there for two seconds before reacting, "You installed an air conditioner in the room? I'm not saying that if you want to install one, just install it in the kitchen. The room isn't as hot and hard as the kitchen."
"There are also two in the kitchen. These two were replaced by Aunt Lin next door. Her daughter bought her two latest foreign brands, and she sold them to us at a low price."
Lance pointed to the line about air conditioning in the account book and showed it to Song Ning.
Song Ning's eyes widened.
"Only six hundred dollars for two?"
"Well, Auntie Lin asked someone to dismantle the air conditioner, and it costs 200 yuan to dismantle one. She said that the air conditioner was only bought for 1,000 yuan. If I dismantle it myself and take it away, the depreciation will be 300 yuan per unit."
Lance shrugged, "It's a good deal, isn't it?"
"It's a good deal...wait, you're going to dismantle the air conditioner yourself?"
Song Ning raised his voice, and a hint of worry and nervousness flashed across his eyes.
"How can you dismantle it by yourself? Are you hurt anywhere?"
He grabbed the corner of Lance's clothes and began to check him up and down, with a hint of annoyance in his eyes.
"In fact, you can buy a new one. Otherwise, we will have to pay for the disassembly and installation fee. It's such a dangerous thing that can be done by professionals. Why do you have to do it yourself? What if something goes wrong? Pah, pah, pah, pah. What I just said is absolutely not nonsense."
so cute.
Lance looked at the nervous little prince and wanted to give him a kiss.
But forget it, his little prince still has to go to school and can't be distracted.
"It's okay. Have you forgotten? Aunt Lin lives on the first floor. If the floor was higher, I wouldn't demolish it. Don't worry, I will definitely pay attention to safety. Otherwise, how can our Ningning study with peace of mind, right?"
He reached out and rubbed Song Ning's soft hair, his tone full of teasing.
"I'm serious with you."
Song Ning just remembered this, but still glared at Lance.
"If you don't have enough money, you can take your time, or you can wait for me to come back and we can do it together. Don't do everything by yourself."
God knows how scared he was when he thought of Lance going up high to dismantle the air conditioner outdoor unit by himself.
Lance was his only family now.
"Don't worry, I will pay attention for Ningning."
Lance said this and went back into the kitchen and took out a plate of chilled sliced watermelon.
"Eat something to cool down? Ningning, help me check the accounts. I'm afraid I missed something."
Song Ning nodded without a doubt, then sat down and checked the bill in shock and amazement.
"I-We've almost made back our investment this month?"
Earning more than 20,000 or almost 30,000 yuan a month?
"Yes, and your school has parents who keep coming to arrange for their children to eat at our small dining table. I think if you keep up the pace, 30,000 yuan should be no problem next month. Then I'll buy you a new mattress so you can sleep more comfortably."
Lance has even contacted the manufacturer. The mattress he likes is very beneficial for sleeping and back pain, but the price is also very attractive. When the time comes, he will have to make a decision first and ask for permission later.
Song Ning's open mouth gradually closed, then he thought for a moment and shook his head.
"My current bed is very good, there's no need to change it. But your current clothes are still bought by me before. I'll buy you a few better sets of clothes when the time comes, and also buy you a cell phone, and open an account for you. You can use the money you earn..."
"Ning Ning."
Lance's eyebrows dropped to hide his eyes, but his light tone clearly couldn't hide his thoughts.
"Are you sure you want to say these things that I don't like to hear? Didn't we make a pinky promise?"
Song Ning didn't dare to look at him, but murmured.
"But you've done a good job of supporting me in my studies. I can't let you spend everything on me. That's not good either."
Er Gouzi has already given them the result, hasn’t he?
Lance suddenly smiled and pinched Song Ning's round earlobe with his fingers.
"Ningning, are you afraid? But I think Ningning, who would be afraid, would never let me down, and our relationship is also different. Ningning, don't forget what you told me, you said you believed me, and I believe you too."
Song Ning was stunned for a long time, and then slowly nodded in the man's firm and unwavering eyes.
"it is good."
