Based on the voting on Weibo, Gu Kaiwen finally decided to choose Siqingyuan's branch in Magic City.

As one of the most developed cities in the Great Xia Kingdom, the Magic City can 100% support the sales of Siqingyuan. In addition, Gu Kaiwen secretly set up a chicken soup shop in the Magic City, and it is also good to choose the Siqingyuan branch in the Magic City.

On the last day of November, Gu Kaiwen arrived in the Magic City again.

Gu Kaiwen came to the Magic City alone in a low-key manner. After he left the airport by taxi, he contacted Shan Jiayi.

"Single Design, are you on the Bund?" Gu Kaiwen asked.

Shan Jiayi responded during the call, "I'm here! Tsk tsk, Boss Gu, are you having a good time on Weibo and are planning to open a new store in Magic City?"

Gu Kaiwen responded with a smile, "Yes. This time I came here to inspect the appropriate location. Do you have any recommendations for single design?"

"I think about it..." Shan Jiayi thought for a few seconds before responding, "I really have a recommendation!"

"Oh?" Gu Kaiwen said 'oh' in confusion, waiting for Shan Jiayi to continue.

Shan Jiayi responded, "You come to the Bund first, and wait for you to arrive, I'll take you to see it."

"Okay, no problem, wait for a meeting." Gu Kaiwen responded, and then ended the call after hearing Shan Jiayi's reply.

Although the traffic conditions in the Magic City are a little better than those in Shengqing City, they are also very limited, and there will still be traffic jams if they are about to be traffic jams.

Nearly an hour later, Gu Kaiwen arrived at the Bund. He found the No. 186 203 store that was being renovated based on his memory.

"Single design." Gu Kaiwen stood at the door of the store and greeted him.

"Wait a moment." Shan Jiayi responded, and she continued to explain the construction details to the construction staff.

After more than a month of decoration, the decoration of the Ganji Soup Shop has become similar, with a style of the Southern Dynasty. Gu Kaiwen nodded with satisfaction.

A few minutes later, Shan Jiayi walked out of the shop being renovated and she greeted, "Boss Gu, good afternoon."

Gu Kaiwen went directly to the topic inquiry, "Single Design, on the phone, where was the appropriate address you mentioned?"

Shan Jiayi didn't keep it a secret, "Just on the Bund, diagonally across from us, I'll take you over and take a look."

"Okay, thank you." Gu Kaiwen thanked.

"You're welcome." Shan Jiayi walked in front and led Gu Kaiwen through the bustling crowd and towards the shop she said.

After less than five minutes of walking, Shan Jiayi stopped in front of a cake shop and asked, "How about this shop?"

Gu Kaiwen quickly looked at the cake shop with black and white colors as the decoration tone. The cake shop’s handwriting is ‘Black Rose’, which looks quite large in area, and the interior decoration is bright and simple, and it looks quite classy.

"It's OK." Gu Kaiwen first affirmed the store, and then asked in confusion, "Single design, is this store ready to be transferred?"

Shan Jiayi smiled and nodded, "Yes. Speaking of which, I will introduce you to this place, but I actually have some selfishness."

"What's the situation?" Gu Kaiwen was observing the customer flow of the Black Rose Cake Shop while paying attention to Shan Jiayi's remarks.

Shan Jiayi explained, "This shop was opened by my friend. After she returned from studying abroad in Great Britain, she took the situation there and ambitiously opened this high-end cake shop. As a result, the situation is a little bad now."

"Would your friend transfer it?" Gu Kaiwen asked.

After returning from studying abroad in Great Britain, you can open a high-end cake shop on the Bund, and the store is quite large, which shows the rhythm of the house having a mine.

In this case, is the other party willing to transfer the store?

Shan Jiayi nodded and affirmed, "She should be willing. Forget it, I can't explain clearly, you can talk to her in person!"

"Okay!" Gu Kaiwen agreed.

He and Shan Jiayi communicated at the door for nearly three minutes, but within these three minutes, no one entered the Black Rose Cake Shop, and there were no customers inside the Black Rose Cake Shop.

It can be seen that this cake shop is indeed in trouble.

Shan Jiayi walked in front, and she took Gu Kaiwen into the Black Rose Cake Shop. A female cake shop greeted, "Welcome to Black Rose."

"I'll find your boss." Shan Jiayi responded.

The female cake shop assistant hesitated for a moment and asked, "Who are you?"

Gu Kaiwen glanced at Shan Jiayi in confusion. Didn’t she say that the owner of this store was her friend?

Then why don’t the clerk know her?

From the beginning of entering, Gu Kaiwen quickly observed the internal situation of the Black Rose Cake Shop, including the internal layout, product style and price, and the number of clerks.

The internal layout of this store conflicts with the concept of Siqingyuan. The dine-in area inside it uses seats that persuads to leave, and the purpose is naturally to hope that customers can leave as soon as possible.

There are also many styles of products, ranging from the simplest original bread and pineapple bread to mango bans, chocolate mousse, and even complex sandwiches.

Although Siqingyuan has fewer products, each one is classic.

‘The price is indeed not cheap!’ Gu Kaiwen looked at the price tag, which looked like a pineapple bun that costs one dollar per ordinary cake shop. This store costs eight yuan.

The price of chocolate mousse reaches 68 yuan, exceeding the price of Starbucks coffee or other similar tea restaurants.

As for the price of a smoked chicken sandwich, it reaches a height of 98 yuan!

But, sales should be very bad, right?

Gu Kaiwen thought to himself that he discovered another problem. In such a big store, there was only one clerk?

That's right!

There is indeed only one clerk!

"Your boss and I are friends, is she in the baking room?" Shan Jiayi said proactively.

The female cake shop assistant nodded, "Well, the boss is in the baking room. Can you ask your surname? I'll notify the boss for you."

"Just tell your boss that the mountain lamb is coming, the mountain wind is the mountain, and the mountain wind is the mountain lamb, she knows it." Shan Jiayi said quickly.

"Okay, Ms. Shanlan, please wait a moment." The female cake shop responded and walked towards the baking room.

When the female cake shop clerk left, Shan Jiayi took the initiative to explain, "Boss Gu, are you full of doubts? I am obviously a friend of the owner of this shop, but why doesn't the clerk know me?"

Gu Kaiwen nodded.

"I just said that the operation of this store is a bit bad. In order to save unnecessary expenses, Winnie dismissed all the fixed clerks. The current clerks should be recruiting temporary workers for daily wages." Shan Jiayi explained.

Gu Kaiwen showed a speechless expression. Is this high-end cake shop even the salary of a fixed clerk a "unnecessary expense"?
Chapter completed!
