Siheyuan: Sending Shazhu into the call center, Yi Gu is useless

After Chen Rufeng finished his work, he stood at the door and carefully looked at his work, feeling satisfied. Gradually, more and more people came and went in the alley. When the neighbors saw the new decorations of the store, they stopped to watch. When several children saw the new toys, they immediately excitedly pulled their parents into the store.

"Mom, I want that remote control car!" A little boy pointed at a red remote control car on the booth, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Uncle Chen, this new toy is so beautiful!" A little girl was also attracted by the colorful building blocks and stood aside and kept praising them.

Chen Rufeng smiled and invited them in, patiently showing the children the functions and ways to play with these new toys. He saw the innocent excitement on the children's faces, and felt a warm current flowing through his heart. At this moment, he felt that all his efforts and risks were worth it.

"Uncle, can I take this building block to school to show it to my classmates?" The little girl looked up and asked with anticipation in her tone. "This building block is not only beautiful, but also can exercise your hands-on ability. You can take it to school and play with your friends."

The little girl's mother smiled and nodded, and finally decided to buy the building blocks. Chen Rufeng helped her pack them and gave them to the little girl, along with a box of colored pencils as a gift. Seeing the children leave happily, Chen Rufeng felt a sense of satisfaction. He knew that these toys were not only commodities, but also carriers of children's childhood happiness.

Business gradually improved, and children's laughter could be heard from time to time in the store. These new toys attracted more and more young customers, and neighbors gradually got used to bringing their children here to shop. Sometimes they would even stop to chat with Chen Rufeng, share parenting experiences or discuss some new things. She was a new resident in the alley, with a little boy of five or six years old. As soon as the boy entered the store, his eyes were immediately attracted by the toys on the display stand.

"Mom, I want this!" The boy pointed at a blue remote control car, his eyes full of desire.

The middle-aged woman hesitated and whispered, "Baby, we already have a lot of toys at home, so don't buy any more today, okay?"

Seeing this, Chen Rufeng walked up and said with a smile: "Sister, this remote control car is not only strong and durable, but also easy to operate, especially suitable for children to play with. And there is a discount today, you can consider it."

The woman was a little hesitant after hearing this. She looked at her son's expectant eyes and finally nodded, "Okay, since you said so, I'll buy one."

Chen Rufeng quickly packed the toys, a bright smile on his face. Seeing this scene, Chen Rufeng felt warm in his heart. This simple transaction not only made his store business better, but also gave him an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

After seeing off the customer and looking at the gradually darkening sky, he felt a sense of fulfillment. Although there are still many nonsensical moments in life, he found that as long as he devotes himself to specific work, this feeling will be replaced by a more real sense of satisfaction.

He knows that life cannot always be meaningful, but he has found his own balance in the daily hustle and bustle. His store is not only a tool for him to make a living, but also a bond between him and the alley, and an emotional bridge between him and his customers, especially the children.

As the new toys in the store began to sell, Chen Rufeng's initial expectations gradually turned into mixed feelings. Although the children showed great interest in these new toys, he found that the actual sales were not as optimistic as he expected.

At first, Chen Rufeng thought this was normal, after all, new products always need some time to open up the market. However, after a few weeks, he gradually realized that although these toys attracted a lot of attention, not many people actually paid for them. Children like to come to the store to look at and touch these toys, and sometimes even beg their parents to buy one, but most parents choose to give up because the toys are too expensive or they already have similar toys at home. Looking at the toys on the shelves that have not been sold, he felt heavy in his heart. He spent a lot of money to buy these toys, and originally hoped to increase the sales of the store through them, but now it seems that the situation is far less optimistic than he imagined.

He opened the account book and carefully calculated the income and expenditure during this period, and found that he had lost a lot of money. Chen Rufeng's heart sank and his brows unconsciously frowned. Although the loss was still within his tolerance, the investment during this period did not pay off, which made him feel a little lost and anxious.

"What went wrong?" Chen Rufeng pondered in his heart. Was it because of his misjudgment of the market? Or were these toys themselves not in line with the needs of the children in the alley? The more he thought about it, the more confused he felt. The feeling of powerlessness in his heart surged up again. He was holding a bag of melon seeds in his hand, with a relaxed look on his face. "Rufeng, what are you doing? Why do you look so sad? Is your business not going well?" He shook his head, "Brother Dongxu,"

"I didn't have anything to do today, so I just happened to pass by your place and wanted to come in and take a look." Jia Dongxu looked around the store, his eyes fell on the pile of toys that were not selling well, and frowned, "How are these toys selling?" His tone was helpless, "To be honest, they are not selling very well, and there are still most of them left in stock. I thought these toys would attract children, but I didn't expect that many people would actually buy them."

Jia Dongxu sat down, handed Chen Rufeng a handful of melon seeds, and then said, "Don't worry too much. Sometimes it's just a matter of luck. Goods may not be a hit at once. Some things need to be promoted slowly. But he still felt bitter in his heart. He knew that Jia Dongxu was comforting himself, but the reality was in front of him. The sales of this batch of toys obviously did not meet his expectations. What made him even more irritated was that he had placed too much hope on these toys before, but now he found that these hopes were a little unrealistic. Am I too eager for quick success?" Chen Rufeng asked in a low voice, his eyes a little dim. "Brother, you have done a good job. It is inevitable to lose money. The key is what you learn from it. You can think about it in the future. Children's needs are actually very simple. Sometimes the more complicated things are, the harder they are to sell. He knew that he was indeed a little impatient. He wanted to quickly increase sales by introducing new toys, but he ignored the actual needs of customers. Although children like toys, most families in the alleys have limited incomes, and parents cannot spend money lavishly for a momentary interest. You are right.
