A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

Li Xixue slowly shifted her gaze away from herself.

finally.

It fell on Lu Yang.

Her expression changed slightly.

Even if she was confused, she still remembered what clothes she was wearing before.

It's obvious that it's been replaced!

Moreover, it was completely replaced from top to bottom!

Thinking of this, Li Xixue immediately looked at Lu Yang.

"you……"

She was about to speak.

But for a moment I didn't know what to say.

at this time.

A black van pulled up right downstairs at the company.

With a snap.

Li Xixue quickly opened the car door.

Then, without looking back, as if having made up his mind, he started walking and hurried away.

She ran very fast.

She wasn't wearing high heels, just casual shoes, and strode into the company building in a few steps.

Lu Yang sat in the car, watching her hurried disappearing figure through the window, and smiled.

Oh.

They ran quite nimbly.

The person who was sleeping like a log in the car just now is now moving around quite quickly.

Lu Yang shook his head, closed the car door, and then gave the driver an address.

Twenty minutes later...

At the entrance of a milk tea shop.

Lu Yang got out of the car and looked up at the store.

At this time, a short queue of five or six people had already formed in front of the store.

Although it's not a lot, it's quite good for a new store that's only been open for a little over a week.

Push the door open and go inside.

Behind the bar, Xia Ning was making a cup of milk tea with her head down.

"Fill the teapot to seven-tenths full, add ice, then coconut milk... Wait, this one doesn't have ice..."

She frantically fished the ice out again, splashing water all over the table, her hands and feet clumsy.

Beside her, Xia Qing was operating the sealing machine, her movements fast and steady, a stark contrast to her sister.

Lu Yang had just walked up to the bar.

"Welcome..."

Xia Ning didn't even look up, and directly uttered standard phrases.

"Hello, what flavor would you like? Today we're recommending 'Bo Ya's Broken Strings,' buy two and get one free..."

He was only halfway through his sentence.

She looked up.

"The boss?!?"

Xia Ning's voice was like a scream, and she almost dropped the freshly made milk tea in her hand.

"You're back!!!"

She jumped, and the rabbit hair clip bounced twice.

Xia Qing, who was standing in front of the sealing machine, also stopped what she was doing and turned her head to take a look.

He didn't say anything.

It suits her personality perfectly.

"Boss, boss, boss! You're finally back!"

Xia Ning bypassed the bar and rushed over, wanting nothing more than to give Lu Yang a big rabbit hug.

"Alright, alright."

Lu Yang reached out to stop him, "Let's process the customers' orders first."

"Oh right!"

Xia Ning suddenly remembered that there were still guests waiting.

Immediately afterwards, she ran back to the bar, her hand movements becoming much faster.

Although the speed increased, half a cup of tea was poured out too much, and the syrup almost spilled outside as well.

She couldn't care less about anything else now; all she wanted to do was finish serving the customers as quickly as possible.

Then have a good chat with the boss about what's been going on at the store these past few days!

Seeing this, Lu Yang also put on an apron and went to help.

Not long after.

After the last customer took his milk tea and left, the shop finally became empty.

Xia Ning lay on the bar counter, arms outstretched, panting heavily.

"I'm exhausted... Boss, you have no idea! My sister and I were practically dead from exhaustion these past two days while you were gone!"

"How many cups are produced?"

"As of now, I have..."

Xia Ning counted on her fingers, intending to recite the numbers.

But because she's been so busy lately, her mind is a bit foggy, and she could only give a simple reply: "Anyway, there are so many, so many, so many..."

"..."

Seeing Xia Ning's dazed look, Lu Yang couldn't help but laugh.

"Alright, you should rest for a while."

Xia Ning shook her head, the rabbit hair clip wobbled twice, and she looked like a rattle drum.

"No, no, no, I'm not tired! Boss, what about the new product?"

Followed by.

Lu Yang flipped through the records from the past few days.

Although Xia Ning's memory was messy, she still had the data.

In the first two days, the average daily output was around two to three hundred cups.

But starting from the fourth day, the numbers began to drop.

Three hundred, two hundred... one hundred and ninety-nine.

The trend is obvious.

At first, they were kept going by the novelty, but after they tried everything, there was nothing new to attract them, and the repurchase rate naturally dropped.

This is also a pattern.

After all, innovation is very important.

"Boss, look!"

Xia Ning leaned closer and pointed to the data in the notebook.

"Boss, the data was great the past two days, but I don't know why it's not working today. My sister and I are so worried."

"What's the use of being in a hurry?"

Lu Yang carefully put the data away.

"What should we do then?"

Lu Yang looked up and scanned the store's interior.

On the ingredient shelf behind the bar, there are three types of tea, four or five kinds of toppings, and only two kinds of fruit.

To put it bluntly, there are too few products.

With three types of tea, we could manage for the first week, but it started to become difficult in the second week.

What's more, there are more than a dozen milk tea shops on this street, and there are all sorts of seasonal limited-time events one after another.

What about our side?

Three types.

Customers have no choice but to try something different.

"Boss, let me tell you, a lady came in for the fourth time yesterday. She came in and asked if we had any new products. I said no, and she left right there."

Xia Ning said in a muffled voice.

Before leaving, I said, "Your milk tea is delicious, but I'm tired of the same three kinds."

Lu Yang didn't say anything.

This is normal market feedback.

With a limited product line, consumer loyalty is declining, and the number of cups sold is decreasing accordingly.

To put it bluntly, it's not that the product is bad, it's that it's not good enough.

There are two main reasons for the decline in cup production.

First, there are too few product categories, leaving existing customers with few new options.

Secondly, there's the seasonal factor; it's summer now, and there's a high demand for iced drinks and refreshing beverages.

However, their existing three models are all classic, and there are no products specifically designed for summer.

"So, boss, do we really have any new products?"

Xia Ning couldn't help but ask.

Lu Yang nodded and smiled, "Of course."

Xia Qing, having finished wiping the worktable, walked over and asked, "How many new products are you planning to launch?"

It's clear she's curious too.

Upon hearing this...

Lu Yang thought for a moment.

If we produce too many, the cost of raw material procurement will increase, and the operation process will become more complicated. Based on the current production capacity of Xia Ning and Xia Qing, five to six products are the limit.

"Let's start with two or three."

"What type?"

Xia Ning and Xia Qing exchanged a glance before asking.

Lu Yang smiled and said, "It's a summer limited edition, focusing on refreshing and fruity tea flavors, which differentiates it from the existing three."
