From four in the afternoon to around nine in the evening, we only received three tables of guests. Excluding costs, we probably only made a little over four thousand yen.
After seeing off the last customer in the store, Gen Sanada frowned, looking a little worried.
Even though you know it in your heart, you can't be impatient and must be patient.
But if I really wait and watch the store, seeing that there is no one in it, I definitely won’t be able to calm down and stop thinking about random things.
Feeling depressed, he walked out of the store and quickly went to a nearby convenience store to buy a pack of cigarettes that he had quit smoking for a long time.
I took out a cigarette and almost put it in my mouth when my cell phone suddenly rang.
I picked it up and saw that it was my son calling.
As soon as the call was connected, the son said with a smile: "Dad, the store has just opened and it's normal that business is not good. Don't worry, some things can't be solved by rushing."
This……
Gen Sanada subconsciously turned around and glanced at the surveillance camera in the store. He wondered if this guy had left a backdoor in the store's surveillance and was now monitoring him at home with his cell phone?
But that doesn't seem right. The camera is facing the store, and he's outside the store now...
Gen Sanada didn't think any more about it and attributed it to coincidence, but his mood did improve a lot because of his son's call.
The two chatted for a while.
After Yuan Qianye hung up the phone, his God's perspective was still on. After he saw his father think for a moment and throw the cigarette at his fingertips and the cigarette box into the trash can, he smiled with relief.
Cigarettes are not good things. If you can avoid them, it’s best not to touch them.
However, seeing that his father was so upset about the store's affairs, he did start to worry about the store's affairs.
The March 7th Bar is different from the previous Yuan Bar. It is their own asset.
I need to think carefully about how to improve business.
the next day.
During the break after the second period of Gen Chiye's class, he received a message from Busujima Saeko.
"Gen-kun, could you please come to the Kendo Club at noon? I have something I want to discuss with you in person."
These past few days, because the next exam is approaching, in order to help his sister improve her grades, he also wants to lift the ban on Eriri.
Yuan Qianye would take them both to the school library during lunch break to help them with their weak subjects.
In response to Busujima Saeko's message, Gen Chiye simply replied "OK".
After a while, the other party also replied with a cute dog smiley face.
Yuan Qianye sent another simple message: "cute".
Busujima Saeko lowered her head and smiled, typing back clumsily.
[This smiling little dog is a picture I saved when I was chatting with Eriri. She taught me how to save it. It's really cute.]
【Not. 】
【What? 】
"I mean, Saeko-senpai, you're cute."
Through the God's perspective, Yuan Qianye indeed saw Busujima Saeko sitting in her seat, covering her cherry lips with her hand, her cheeks flushed.
As Xu Zhimo said, the most gentle thing is that she lowered her head, like a water lotus that is shy in the cool breeze.
Yuan Qianye shook his head suddenly, thinking that he might have been overnourished recently, otherwise why would he not be able to restrain himself from actively flirting with others.
He added a "See you at noon" message to end this message exchange.
At noon, he asked Rikka and Eriri to go to the library to wait for him, while Gen Qianye went to the kendo club which he had not been to for a few days.
The atmosphere was noticeably different.
I'm not referring to Busujima Saeko. Even though she was flirted with by Yuan Qianye in the morning, she didn't show any abnormal behavior at the moment.
The ones who seemed abnormal were Yusuke Ushiyama and the other people at the scene.
As the third strongest person in the kendo club after Saeko Busujima and Chiya Minamoto, Yusuke Ushiyama is currently setting an example by holding the wooden sword with both hands to maintain balance, with a bottle of mineral water hanging at the front end.
The other members of the Kendo Club had bitter expressions on their faces as they imitated his posture. Although most of them had their hands trembling slightly, they still had to grit their teeth and persevere.
If the bottle becomes loose and falls or slips to your hand, not only will it be embarrassing, but you will also have to do two sets of push-ups.
"This training method is quite unique." Gen Qianye sat cross-legged next to Busujima Saeko on the sidelines.
Busujima Saeko smiled and said, "This was Senior Ushiyama's initiative, mainly because he was really angry."
"Oh? What's going on?"
"It's because of the flag-circling game the day before yesterday, between Han Guo and..."
"Ah, I know. Does that game have anything to do with this situation?"
"A few third-year Kendo Club members joked that Senior Niu Shan was similar to that foolish Chinese Go player, who only lost one game in the tournament and still won the championship.
Senior Niu Shan was so angry that he immediately defeated those third-year kendo club members in one-on-one fights. Then, with my consent, he trained the other kendo club members who were laughing at the time.
Yuan Qianye understood and chuckled, "Then Senior Niu Shan will definitely be angry."
With Ushiyama Yusuke's good-natured personality, he probably wouldn't care at all if someone said his kendo skills were not good.
The reason why he was angry was undoubtedly because those ignorant guys compared him to that despicable chess player who had now become a laughing stock around the world.
Even if Ushiyama Yusuke loses the game and is defeated by his first-year opponent, he will never think of using those shady tricks.
Once you have this idea and actually implement it, what's the difference between you and a villain?
I fell down and my face hit the ground. I got up, dusted off the dirt, and washed myself, and I was clean again.
But if your heart is damaged, it will be dirty for the rest of your life.
Besides, his strength is actually not weak in the Sichuan Blue Kendo Club, otherwise he would not have been sent as a regular player to participate in the national competition.
It was only because he started off badly and was overshadowed by the two geniuses around him that he seemed to be just a supporting role.
At this moment on the field, except for Yusuke Ushiyama, everyone else could not hold on any longer. Their endurance reached the limit and the mineral water fell to the ground one after another.
The other people's business ended here. Busujima Saeko stopped looking at the venue and got down to business.
"Gen-kun...I specially asked you to come here because of my father's matter."
She seemed to find it difficult to talk about such a thing, so while speaking, she moved her little feet closer to Yuan Qianye and deliberately lowered her voice.
"Oh? What happened to Uncle Busujima?"
"As for him, he will be going abroad again in a few days."
"Is it about work?"
Busujima Saeko nodded.
Her father has made it his mission to spread the culture of kendo and has opened several kendo dojos abroad. He cannot leave for too long, and now it is time to go back.
Yuan Qianye sighed, "It's really hard work."
"After so many years, he's gotten used to it."
"No, I mean hardship. Saeko-senpai, you'll be on your own again..."
Yuan Qianye suddenly stopped talking. He realized that something was wrong with him and saw that Busujima Saeko's eyes were looking at him with something unusually moist.
Something is wrong, something out of ten or even nine points is wrong.
Am I being driven by hormones, at the age where I can wear out a piece of steel? Why can't I help but say these things?
Yuan Qianye coughed dryly to dispel the sour-sweet atmosphere.
Busujima Saeko also woke up from her dream and withdrew her sticky gaze, and got back to business.
"My...my father...wanted to stop by Uncle Yuan's shop one more time before leaving. He said that they hit it off right away, and he realized that what he said before was quite rude to someone they just met for the first time. This time, he wanted to personally apologize to Uncle Yuan and say goodbye to him."

"Eh? Is Saeko's dad going to the store to see Uncle Minamoto tonight too?"
In the library of Kawanan Junior High School, Eriri blurted out subconsciously when she heard Gen Chiye talking about having just joined the Kendo Club.
Yuan Qianye keenly noticed the word "also" in her mouth and asked with a smile: "Ying Lili, are you going to go find my dad too?"
Ying Lili quickly shook her head: "Ah, it's not me, I can't go out until the next exam results come out.
It's my parents. I mentioned to them before that Uncle Yuan had opened his own shop. It just so happened that Dad was at home on vacation today, so Mom thought about going to Uncle Yuan's shop with him for a drink after dinner. This morning, before coming to school, Mom even asked me to say hello to you.
It turned out to be the case.
Yuan Qianye nodded to show that he understood.
It’s quite a coincidence that two of my friends’ elders will be here today to support us.
But I think it shouldn't be a big deal. There are just a few more customers than usual. Even though the business at my bar is slow now, it shouldn't be too busy to handle it.
But Gen Qianye still sent a message to Gen Sanada to mention it, and he replied with an OK gesture emoticon.
Return home after school in the afternoon.
Gen Sanada went out at just after three o'clock. Business was not very good, so he had to extend the opening hours.
Yuan Qianye took a shower and sat in front of the desk, looking at the development and growth history of various well-known stores on the Internet to expand his thinking.
Trying to find a suitable solution to the problem of poor business in his own bar and shop.
I checked the information, wrote a summary, and marked the key points, and more than two hours passed by unknowingly.
This time was not wasted, he did gain something.
I also understand that if a store wants to be successful, it must have its own unique advantages in at least some areas.
Or have personal characteristics.
Kendeji is a typical example. In the era of the Great Depression, its low-cost and fast serving style, coupled with its iconic hardware technology and unique delicious recipe, was the key to its success.
Or there must be a product gimmick.
In this regard, we have to mention Hooters. This chain store brand started in the last century. It relied on its hot waiters who were dressed coolly, sweetly and beautifully, coupled with continuous efforts in publicity, to stand out from its competitors. It now has hundreds of branches in various countries.
There are also many people who do not care much about the quality of the product when consuming, but rather enjoy the spiritual pleasure brought by consumption.
Want better service, or inner satisfaction.
Among them, Hedi Lao and Xingbake have achieved the ultimate in this regard.
The former focuses on a service attitude that is so friendly that it would make people with social anxiety pick their feet. Making guests feel at home is just the basic requirement here.
The latter uses the concept of "third space" proposed by celebrities and the continuous marketing of the public relations department to give people a very high-end feeling, firmly grasping the inner needs of those urban beauties and office workers who want to experience the sense of superiority and those who claim to be elites.
Yuan Qianye looked at the successful cases he had summarized, and then silently compared them with his own shop.
Some helpless.
All of the above are obvious prerequisites for success, and our store has them all perfectly met.
It's okay in every way, but there's nothing outstanding about it, so it's just unremarkable.
This is very dangerous.
In Tokyo, a fast-paced and highly competitive city, an ordinary small bar that has nothing special to attract people's attention may be destroyed by its competitors at any time.
The situation is not as optimistic as my father thought. The business can be significantly improved over time.
However, the skills I have mastered at this stage do not seem to be of much help to the current situation.
You can't just perform sword skills in front of the bar to attract customers, or give out free sketch portraits when you spend a certain amount of money on drinks.
Well, the latter does seem to be a good option, but I'm a student and can't stay in the store forever...
We still have to think of other ways.
"I am back."
