Chapter 223: Relieving People’s Worries
Master Mei is skilled in his craftsmanship and completed the hairstyle specified by An Zhixia in less than five minutes.
“Master Mei, please shave our comrade’s beard and trim his sideburns and eyebrows so that he looks fair and healthy!”
After taking off his heavy "black hat", the spirited young man stood up and turned around with satisfaction, brushing his hair, touching his eyebrows and chin. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said: "I feel like my head has also taken off its cotton coat, it feels comfortable and refreshing." Not to mention, it makes me look taller than my previous hairstyle!”
It took the young man half an hour to get in and out of the store, but the audience stretched their necks and stared at it for half an hour. They saw the person walking away with the buns, and they were still not satisfied.
With a good start, more customers will enter Gome Barber Shop later.
After enjoying the shampooing while lying down and the 20-minute massage that was so relaxing that the whole body felt paralyzed, the customers were in a good mood. When they looked at the styleless hair that was blow-dried, most of them were willing to have it trimmed.
An Zhixia recommended a hairstyle on one side, which was also a model for the old masters.
She was once a fashion benchmark for later generations, and her vision was naturally very unique. She used hairstyles and beards to modify her face shape, and she avoided the currently popular 37-part parting. Each one gives people a feeling of renewal, making the old man and old woman at the door unable to move their feet.
The people walking out of the store also attracted a wave of beauty-loving young people.
Seeing how busy the shop was, Master Mei hurriedly asked the boy to borrow two more lounge chairs. Three customers were having their hair washed and massaged at the same time. He and another old master trimmed their hair under the guidance of An Zhixia.
A young couple came here. An Zhixia also tricked the little girl into washing her hair, applying a facial mask made of spring cucumber, milk powder, honey and essential oil, using techniques to let the skin absorb the essence, then applying facial cream and braiding a beautiful hairstyle. , put on the fabric hairband sold in the supply and marketing cooperative next door, and the whole person will be moisturized and brightened.
At the end of the day, the five employees of the Gome Barber Shop didn't even bother to eat or drink. They all slumped on their chairs after seeing off the last customer.
“Master Zhang personally cooks the noodles with beans and minced meat, and there is an egg in each bowl. Let’s eat it while it’s hot,” An Zhixia greeted with a smile.
An Zhiqiu brought in five bowls of steaming noodles on a plate and put them on the table.
When they heard that the food was so good, they quickly stood up and each took a bowl of noodles and purred, "The noodles are chewy, the meat is fat and fragrant, and the poached eggs are sweet. We have been busy all day to earn a bowl of noodles with meat and eggs, and it is worth it." !”
After eating, Master Mei took out the money box and went through today's income. "Although most of the customers came for the free trial, there are still some who paid for it after the experience, so we have 20 yuan in the account today." One piece and two!”
Think about the fact that their daily marketing revenue was less than five yuan in the past. Now their busy work is worth it, at least it is worthy of the salary they get. Everyone happily gathered around the money box and kept thanking An Zhixia.
Master Mei took out three yuan and sixty cents and handed it over: "This is the money for the facial mask, cream and hairband. Xiao An, can you order some of them?"
She took it over with a smile and said: "Yes, but in the future you will have to recruit one or two lesbians who are handy and sweet-tongued to help in your store."
The big guy quickly responded with a smile and said, "It's natural, I'll do it tomorrow! It's okay to wash and cut your hair, but we don't dare to put my hands on the faces of lesbians. If someone sees it, I can't tell you why!"
Just as he was talking, An Zhiqiu and Chef Zhang came with a wad of money, "This is the share of the Gome Barber Shop."
"Still have money?" Master Mei and his group stared, "Aren't you giving away hair washing and trimming? We have already benefited from your state-owned hotel and attracted customers, how can we ask for more money?" It seems that we still don't have enough money. Looks like less.
"Master Mei, this is indeed what you deserve," An Zhixia explained with a smile: "This activity is a double benefit. It can not only attract traffic to state-owned hotels, but also attract traffic to Gome Barber Shop. As long as you get the coupons, you can spend it. , then the profit must be divided according to the work, we can’t let your hard work go in vain, right?”
It is said to be a discount, but it is just a means of making small profits but quick turnover.
"For those who only experience hair washing and massage, Gome will get 1 cent per person, and for those who spend two yuan to experience hair trimming, Gome will get 50 cents. So the total is 22 yuan!" An Zhiqiu also added with a smile. Many customers spent 50 cents to have their hair washed and massaged. They wanted to have their hair styled, and then bought additional meals for 15 cents. Therefore, the state-owned hotels also benefited a lot, and they recorded a profit of 30 yuan from the bundled consumption alone. And this was also An Zhixia's original intention.
“So, we made thirty-nine yuan and sixty cents today?” Master Mei asked with difficulty, and the employees in the store couldn’t help but gasp.
Even when perming and dyeing were not banned, a **** would spend two yuan and two, but their machines and time were limited, and their daily turnover at most was only twenty yuan!
"The money is all in your hand, is there anything wrong?" An Zhixia nodded her chin at his hand, raised her eyebrows and smiled. "I just said that hairdressing is an industry with great development prospects. It doesn't matter that the perming and dyeing business has been temporarily banned. There are many ways to make everyone beautiful. Mood, hairstyle, face, can't all of them be done with your hands? "
“However, if a few young comrades can go to the south to visit and study, we can improve the professional capabilities of the entire Kyoto hairdressing industry and develop better in the future.”
"Okay, okay," Master Mei stood up excitedly and said, "I will definitely report it to the leader. However," he scratched his head in embarrassment, "Xiao An, barber shops like ours are bundled with state-owned hotels and supply and marketing cooperatives. Can the method be moved to other stores?”
"Of course you can, but I can't guarantee the effect," my brother is good at cooking and has been studying dishes non-stop. He has already surpassed most of the supply and marketing cooperative chefs. The two old masters had 80% control over their hairstyle choices with her as their tutor. These two points are unmatched by other stores in a short period of time.
In the next few days, the popularity of Gome Barber Shop continued, while other barber shops also experienced their first consumption boom in recent years. For this reason, the barber shop headquarters specially presented An Zhixia with a banner of "Relieving People's Worries and Eternal Love", a bonus of 100 yuan, and 30 free trimming experience coupons with great fanfare!
An Zhiqiu was even more excited than she was. He held the banner and gestured around the house. Finally, he chose the wall facing the door of the main room and hung it upright next to Comrade Mao's portrait.
He and Fang Hongye stood in front of them and had a lot of fun for a long time. Those who didn't know it thought they were being awarded the prize. "Otherwise, I'll ask Master Zhang to contact the leadership and send a banner to the girl as well? Ye'er, what do you think should be written on the banner?"
"Selfless dedication? A pacesetter in generating income? Enthusiastic about serving the people?" Fang Hongye really started thinking together.
