Chapter 606: Six hundred and eleven, the clothes are sold out!
Gu Chen finished speaking and then walked out from behind the bar.
The woman, upon hearing this, effortlessly made her way into the bar area.
Looking at the neatly arranged tools inside the bar, she was somewhat surprised.
In the past three years, she had been to many places, big and small.
For many people, cocktails were just considered to be a sweeter kind of drink, which in the eyes of many bar owners, meant high profits, good looks, and importantly, the prestige of imported spirits.
But no one knew what kind of tools were needed to mix a cocktail.
She was particularly surprised to see so many tools at Gu Chen’s place.
Even many were ones she had not come across in her three years of career.
The woman turned around to examine the bottles in the bar’s cabinet.
One could say it was a diverse collection, with all kinds of alcohol present, many of which she had never even heard of.
Yet, whatever cocktail she knew of, she could find its ingredients there on the shelves.
For the next twenty minutes, Gu Chen just quietly watched her.
He observed as she picked up the tools to make him a cocktail.
After the twenty minutes had passed, the cocktail was presented.
Gu Chen looked at the cocktail, which had a layer of white at the bottom and cherry red on top.
It didn’t look particularly attractive, partly because Gu Chen had seen too many flamboyantly varied cocktails before.
But the cocktail she made was still rather fashionable by today’s standards.
Gu Chen picked up the drink and took a simple sip.
One could say that the taste of a cocktail is hard to pin down.
Unless it’s a particularly popular cocktail with a standardized way of mixing.
Otherwise, if it’s a drink mixed by a regular bartender, the flavors vary greatly.
The name of each cocktail was essentially up to the bartender.
"This drink is called ’Warm Morning Sun,’" she said to Gu Chen.
Gu Chen nodded after hearing this and then tasted a small sip slowly.
The first thing that struck him upon tasting it was a sensation of dry heat, coming from the first layer of the drink.
Then, in the next second, or rather instantly, the sensation changed completely.
The second layer beneath was refreshing and cool.
It was akin to stepping outside after waking up, able to feel both the warmth of the newly-risen sun and the refreshing coolness left in the air from the previous night.
"Not bad," Gu Chen affirmed with certainty.
Gu Chen could still tell which drinks were tasty and which were not, after trying so many.
If he were to give this cocktail a mid-range score, with ten being perfect, Gu Chen would at least give it eight out of ten.
"The base salary is seven thousand a month, with a ten percent commission on the profits from the cocktails sold," he said to her.
Upon hearing this, she quickly responded, "Thank you, boss."
Maybe it was because of her age, but like the purple-haired girl he saw yesterday, she was very outgoing in nature.
"The bar will open for business tomorrow, so you can start then. You should be here by eight in the evening every day. If you need an assistant, just say so. However, it all depends on how busy we are during the trial operation. If it’s busy, you can have an assistant," Gu Chen explained.
She nodded happily upon hearing this.
The salary Gu Chen offered was the best she’d had among all her jobs.
A base salary of seven thousand a month was a thousand more than what was advertised outside on recruitment signs.
And that extra thousand was because of the cocktail she had just made.
Gu Chen held her in high regard internally.
He felt such talent could definitely be nurtured carefully.
"In your spare time, you could research some other cocktails.
If the cocktails you create require any materials, you can mention it; they can be reimbursed," he said.
After he had finished speaking, he saw the woman’s face light up immediately.
If the salary mentioned before was considered high remuneration, then what was being offered now was high welfare.
Having the opportunity to try and concoct new cocktails was not something others would readily offer.
After all, to mix such a simple drink could potentially require more than a dozen bottles of liquor to find the perfect formula through trial and error.
That’s why most people wouldn’t let her mix drinks on her own.
Of course, if she insisted on creating her own mixtures, she would have to use her own money.
She’d been to nightclubs, KTVs, and the like for quite some time now.
She had never encountered conditions as favorable as the ones Gu Chen offered.
"What’s your name?" Gu Chen asked at this point.
"My name is Li Guihua," she said to Gu Chen.
Gu Chen was taken aback by the sound of this name.
The name was indeed very plain.
After hearing it, Gu Chen nodded without further comment.
Later in the afternoon.
Gu Chen made another trip to the clothing store.
He went inside the clothing store to inquire about how many orders Tang Xinyi had managed to secure in just half a day.
But upon his arrival, he saw Tang Xinyi was still incessantly on the phone.
Gu Chen approached and looked at the list of customers who had decided to pre-order.
To his mild surprise, he discovered that in half a day, fifty-three people had already placed orders.
Even having achieved so many orders was something he hadn’t predicted for the outcome, even during his own time.
He thought that if there were over twenty orders on the first day, it would be quite impressive.
Part of this was due to his own confidence in his products.
Another reason was that he saw the current fashion designs lacked any highlights, as if they were all from the same mold.
Therefore, partnering with Tang Xinyi would not only allow him to lease the shop here but also let the local population understand what really constitutes fine goods."
After Tang Xinyi hung up the phone, her face immediately revealed an extremely fatigued expression.
"Fifty-four now!"
"I never thought it would be so successful."
Deep inside, she was incredibly thrilled.
She had been operating a clothing store here for some time.
In the past, selling two items in one day felt like a celebration.
But now, in just half a day, she had achieved so much.
Although she hadn’t been involved in the clothing design or the final production,
when Tang Xinyi heard that her clothing brand was beloved by so many people, she was incredibly pleased inside.
At that moment, her gaze towards Gu Chen could only be one of admiration!
