Chapter 429: 429 Select new shop_1

Never did I expect that something spoken from the heart could have such a good effect.

Boss Gu was actually quite happy inside.

At that moment, an old customer was placing his order.

Upon suddenly smelling the coffee aroma, he eagerly asked Boss Gu without delay,

"Boss Gu, what is that delightful smell? Is it coffee?"

This person had also been a patron of Qiwei Vegetarian for more than just a day or two.

So he directly asked out of curiosity.

Boss Gu honestly said, "Just ground some coffee beans and brewed some coffee."

"I never expected Boss Gu to indulge in such a leisurely and refined pleasure, it’s truly rare."

"To serve coffee to the staff, you are indeed generous, Boss Gu."

Back then, people didn’t have such a strong concept of beverage consumption, and plain water was still the main drink. Of course, this plain water wasn’t the bottled kind sold years later.

Therefore, to them, Boss Gu treating his staff to coffee seemed quite luxurious.

Boss Gu himself didn’t really have any strong opinions on the matter.

Even if he poured a cup for each person, it wouldn’t be a big deal.

The old customer, guided by his nose to the coffee scent, had his brain following his nose.

"Little sister, may I try the coffee?" he asked.

Even though saying such a thing in front of so many people was rather embarrassing,

he was left with no choice, for he was a complete coffee addict.

He had a devout belief in coffee!

The coffee that Boss Gu made was simply too aromatic, so much so that he had never smelled anything like it even in many high-end restaurants abroad.

When Xiao Ping was suddenly called upon and heard the request, she initially wanted to refuse.

Because the coffee really tasted exceptional, and after a few sips, she had completely fallen in love with it.

But after all, it was a customer’s request, and she felt it would be impolite to deny it.

She could only hand over the coffee to the man.

After receiving the coffee, the man smelled the coffee’s aroma up close.

The wave of fragrance instantly spread through his nostrils to his brain.

"Excellent! This really is a fine product!" he exclaimed with joy.

He threw back his throat and took a big gulp without hesitation.

The gulp was entirely reckless.

After the coffee hit his taste buds, he stood still without speaking for a long time.

It took about two or three minutes before he gradually came back to his senses.

"Such a treasure should belong in the heavens, so why has it fallen to earth?"

Anyone ignorant of the context might have thought that Boss Gu’s coffee contained some sort of drug.

The man who drank it actually started spouting poetry.

"Boss Gu! How much of these coffee beans do you have left? I’ll buy as much as you have!"

He asked Boss Gu immediately, with a very resolute attitude.

It seemed he was prepared to pay any price to get his hands on this coffee.

Upon hearing this, Boss Gu did not hesitate and directly said, "This was developed by a friend of mine abroad, and he only gave me a little. I don’t plan on selling it right now, sorry."

After hearing Boss Gu’s words, the man’s face showed great disappointment.

However, he then made an effort to obtain the contact information from Boss Gu, "Boss Gu, could you give me your friend’s contact information?"

Boss Gu saw how serious he was, but he still couldn’t disclose it, so he had no choice but to refuse him.

"My friend likes peace and quiet, but in the future, Qiwei Vegetarian or I might open a coffee shop, and then you can come and support us," Boss Gu said.

Although the man was somewhat disappointed upon hearing this, he quickly became eager and said, "Boss Gu, if your shop opens, be sure to contact me right away.

For any aspect of the operation that needs attention, you can get in touch with me; I can handle just about everything. Here’s my business card; you can contact me for anything, and don’t worry, it’s all free of charge."

The man handed Boss Gu a business card directly.

Boss Gu took a look and felt quite surprised.

He had not expected this unassuming-looking middle-aged man to have such a status.

He was an important figure in market management, with a not insignificant social status.

But then again, Boss Gu thought it was normal since the customers who came to Qiwei Vegetarian were rarely without a complex background.

"Alright, when the new store opens, I will certainly call you," Boss Gu replied with respect.

As the saying goes, it’s better to meet the king of hell than the little demons.

Market management could be seen as an iron rice bowl; in today’s society, this middle-aged man could hold countless businesses by the throat.

In short, Boss Gu would rather not make an enemy if he could avoid it.

After being busy for four hours, the store closed for the day.

Boss Gu was still pondering the coffee shop idea, thinking it might really be worth a try.

It was just that in Chuan City, the majority of people may not be able to afford coffee.

Beverages and food are quite different.

Take Qiwei Vegetarian for example, if someone wants to impress, they could spend a lot of money here, and even if the ambiance isn’t quite there, the taste could capture people’s taste buds.

Beverages, however, are different; no matter how good they are, in the end, they are just a drink.

The trend of going to coffee shops and such for meetings has not caught on yet.

Boss Gu felt his concerns were not unfounded, as this is just how society is nowadays.

Besides traditional coffee, Boss Gu knew of another way.

That would be to directly select bottled coffee, much like those bottled beverages.

There is a big piece of the market pie for bottled coffee in the future.

It just seemed a bit too early to go after that piece right now.

But Boss Gu was confident that once he entered the industry, he would surely become a leader.

No brand would be able to surpass him in the next ten to twenty years.

If he chose to open a coffee shop, he had to consider the possibility of franchising.

In the future, a certain coffee brand would go national, becoming the leading brand overnight.

Of course, this standing would be confined to the domestic market.

Abroad, it would be just an ordinary coffee brand.

But Boss Gu was very optimistic about that market, as the profit margins were very high.

If he could popularize it, he could later hand it over to Tangtang.

After all, in this industry, products never really go out of style.

While he was thinking about all this, Xiao Fang and the others had almost finished cleaning up.

After leaving Qiwei Vegetarian, Boss Gu went to pick up Tangtang from kindergarten, and then returned home.

Tangtang obediently did her homework while Boss Gu carefully prepared dinner for the two of them.

When Ji Pianran got home, they immediately started the meal, able to enjoy delicious food.
