Chapter 524 - The Milk Tea Shop is Booming

To put it bluntly, they were easy to fool... Today was Saturday, the peak time for foot traffic and when college students came out to shop.

Don't misunderstand; Jiang Cheng wasn't there to scout for Girls. He purely wanted to see how the business of this milk tea shop was doing, nothing more.

Looking at the address Chen Xueer had sent earlier, Jiang Cheng turned on his navigation and drove straight there.

In less than five minutes, the car arrived near the destination.

Seeing the street corner ahead starting to get lively, Jiang Cheng didn't drive any further in.

Instead, he parked the car in an empty lot near the commercial street and walked over after getting out.

As expected of a commercial street near a school, there were many students and young couples coming and going.

Jiang Cheng slowly strolled inside.

He found that the entire commercial street had many snacks, but counting them up, the most common shops were milk tea shops.

There was a milk tea shop almost every few meters.

And they were all franchised milk tea shops of various brands.

It truly was an era where the formidable milk tea culture prevailed.

Looking at so many milk tea shops, Jiang Cheng suddenly felt quite interested.

He wondered how the business of the milk tea shop he opened was doing.

After all, those others were old franchised brands with high public recognition.

If his own business was bleak, wouldn't he fail to see many pretty Girls? How could he keep going... No, wait, wouldn't that mean losing money... Just as Jiang Cheng was lamenting how competitive the Girl-chasing market was...

He soon saw some passersby gathered at the entrance of a milk tea shop, whispering among themselves.

"What milk tea shop is this? Simple Tea? Never heard of it."

"So many people are lining up! Is it really that good?"

"The decor looks quite nice. I just don't know if it's expensive. Should we try it?"

"Sure! I see Su Wan's photo at the entrance. Could she be the spokesperson? Let's go check the prices."

"It's actually endorsed by my goddess! Then we definitely have to try it."

Hearing the discussion, Jiang Cheng realized he had arrived at his destination.

Wasn't this actually the milk tea shop he had opened?

He didn't expect the business to be so booming.

Seeing people watching from the side, the female shop assistant standing at the door immediately came over with several flyers to distribute.

She spoke enthusiastically to the passersby: "Hello, everyone, please take a look. This is our menu. Our milk tea is delicious, affordable, and even very healthy. You can see the raw materials on-site. You're welcome to take a look. If you're interested, you can line up to order. It's ten percent off for the first three days of opening, and today is the last day~"

Looking at the long line at the door, Jiang Cheng was surprised and nodded with satisfaction.

Not bad, not bad. There were indeed many Girls.

Although the milk tea shop he opened mimicked the style of A Certain Tea Brand, he didn't hire fake customers to line up like they did.

Because the price of Simple Tea was already a great selling point; there was no need to hire people to line up for hype.

This price positioning was inherently attractive to student groups, especially with the ten percent discount during the first three days.

With such low prices, even if it wasn't a franchised shop, many people would probably come to try the taste.

Moreover, the milk tea shop had hired a professional designer, so the overall style was very minimalist, fashionable, and elegant.

Even the staff's unified uniforms were very good-looking.

The key was that the young lady at the door was quite attractive, about an eighty on a hundred-point scale. Many young men passing by couldn't help but glance at her.

In fact, most men really liked looking at goddesses with a beauty score of over ninety.

But facing such a high-beauty goddess, most men would feel pressured.

Aside from having high popularity in live-streaming rooms, very few people in reality dared to approach such women to strike up a conversation.

Most men, when facing such a woman, would at most shout 'wife' and ask for her wechat in a live-streaming room. If you really made him face her in person, he would definitely only look from afar.

Because in reality, people would subconsciously feel they couldn't reach such a goddess and couldn't handle her.

They might even feel she wouldn't look at them or that they weren't good enough for her.

Of course, Second-generation rich were the exception. With the support of money, their self-confidence was off the charts.

Even if they looked like a crooked melon or a split date, they would feel such a goddess wasn't good enough for them and was only fit to be their plaything.

As for Girls like the shop assistant with a beauty score around eighty, although they weren't the most beautiful, they belonged to the most popular category of Girls in reality.

These Girls had a friendly appearance without being intimidating, belonging to the type that many ordinary men felt they could handle.

Facing Girls with this medium-high level of beauty, many men would also have more courage in front of them.

So in reality, compared to those long-legged beauties with a score of ninety, these Girls actually had more pursuers around them and were more likely to be approached for their wechat on the street.

At this moment, some of the young men in line had exactly this mindset. On the surface, they seemed to be playing with their phones, but they were actually secretly eyeing the young lady distributing flyers.

The young lady herself realized this, but what made her happiest was finding that the most handsome and tallest guy, Jiang Cheng, was actually staring at her too.

With her mind wandering, the shop assistant's face couldn't help but flush slightly, and her heart even began to race like a deer.

She plucked up her courage and walked to Jiang Cheng's side, handing him a flyer: "Handsome Guy, please take a look. Our milk tea is very delicious. Shall I introduce it to you in detail? If you're interested, come in and try some."

Seeing that the young lady seemed to have misunderstood him, Jiang Cheng didn't dare to give her even a hint of a smile and waved his hand at her: "I'll look for myself."

Seeing Jiang Cheng's cool expression, the young lady nodded with some disappointment and walked elsewhere to greet other customers.

Seeing Jiang Cheng's coldness toward the Girl, some of the men secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Ignoring this little episode, Jiang Cheng leisurely toured his milk tea shop alone.

Sure enough, the power of money was strong.

It hadn't even been a week since he snatched this milk tea shop from Dai Yu's hands.

Not only had the shop's decoration style been changed,

But even the development of the milk tea, the raw materials, and even the recipes and packaging design had all been finalized.

This speed was indeed lightning fast.

However, this was also thanks to the perfection of the milk tea market.

Milk tea culture had already been popular for many years.

The product supply chain in the market was also very mature.

The recipes, proportions, and steps for various products were no longer secrets.

Product development was even more convenient; as long as you put forward your requirements and found any food supply company, they would make it for you in all sorts of ways.

With these recipes and operating steps, one only needed to find a few experienced store managers to lead new employees, and the shop could be operated immediately.

After all, the steps to make milk tea were just brewing tea, adding milk, adding sugar, adding ice, shaking, adding toppings, and cup packaging.

Such simple steps could be easily completed by any college student who hadn't graduated yet, requiring absolutely no technical skill.

Moreover, the name of his milk tea shop was Simple Tea.

This name not only mimicked the name of A Certain Tea Brand, but even the menu on the flyers and the way the base ingredients were used were almost identical.
