Chapter 398 The Same Community

Jiangcheng University,

Girls' dormitory,

“You don’t need these anymore, do you? They’re already old.”

“These books don’t seem to be needed anymore, but they are very helpful for studying. We can give them to the junior students.”

“What is this booklet? Is it still useful?”

Zhang Lan kept helping Shen Rou organize her clothes when she suddenly found a booklet under the mattress in front of Shen Rou’s bed.

“This is useful.”

Shen Rou looked up at the sound, and seeing it, quickly snatched the booklet and put it into the suitcase in front of her.

“Oh! Something’s not right. My Shen Rou has a little secret?”

Zhang Lan looked at Shen Rou’s expression and said with a mischievous look.

“I saw that the cover of that booklet had the words ‘General Manager Chen’ on it!”

“Don’t think too much; this is General Manager Chen’s task handbook. It contains company secrets, so you can’t see it.”

Shen Rou looked at Zhang Lan’s mischievous expression and said somewhat unnaturally.

“Really?”

“Of course, it’s real. Why would I lie to you?”

“Alright, I’ll believe you then.”

Zhang Lan blinked at Shen Rou, then started to pack other things.

After a while,

Everything was packed, and the dormitory was cleaned.

“Alright, everything’s packed. Let’s move tomorrow morning.”

Zhang Lan checked to make sure nothing was left behind, then clapped her hands.

Just yesterday,

She had found a new place to live. Because she had received 2 million in compensation from the Entertainment Company, she had no intention of continuing to make herself suffer, especially with Shen Rou there.

So this time, she rented a pretty good high-end apartment, and it was 130 square meters.

“Mm!”

Shen Rou sat on the bed, glanced at the dormitory, and confirmed that, except for her own bedding, everything else had been packed.

As for the bedding, she still had to stay one more night, so she hadn't packed it yet.

But when she moved out tomorrow, she would just fold it and put it into the prepared bag.

“Then let’s just rest and sleep. Tomorrow, after you get off work, I’ll come over and help you move the luggage.”

Zhang Lan naturally sat down on the edge of Shen Rou’s bed.

Shen Rou looked at Zhang Lan and asked curiously.

“You’re resting and sleeping. Why aren’t you leaving?”

Zhang Lan had already moved out after establishing her music studio, and now there was no bedding of Zhang Lan’s in the dormitory at all.

“It’s so late. It’s not safe for me to go back.”

“Then where will you sleep?!”

“On your bed, of course. It’s not like I haven’t slept here before. Why are you shy? Let me see, have you gained weight?”

“You…”

Shen Rou exclaimed.

Immediately, two figures started wrestling.

After a while.

Both of them lay exhausted on the bed.

“Oh, by the way, you haven’t told me where you rented a place.”

Shen Rou calmed her breathing and turned to look at Zhang Lan, who was lying next to her.

“Changbai Jingyuan.”

Zhang Lan said casually.

Changbai Jingyuan?

Shen Rou murmured, quickly realizing.

Isn’t this where General Manager Chen lives now?

A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Rou’s eyes. She had never expected that Zhang Lan would choose the same residential area where General Manager Chen currently lived.

“What’s wrong? Is there something wrong with this residential area?”

Zhang Lan noticed Shen Rou’s somewhat unnatural expression and asked.

“Nothing. It’s just that the residential area you chose is the same as the one General Manager Chen lives in.”

Shen Rou shook her head and explained.

“No, that’s not right. I remember General Manager Chen living in an old residential area, didn’t he?”

Zhang Lan was a bit puzzled. She remembered that the last time General Manager Chen was drunk and she went to his place, it was clearly an old residential area. At the time, she couldn’t understand why a company boss would live in such a dilapidated residential area.

So she remembered it very clearly.

“He moved out a long time ago. His current residence is Changbai Jingyuan.”

Shen Rou replied.

“I see. But it’s good to live a bit closer. It will be much more convenient if the company encounters any urgent matters in the future, won’t it?”

Zhang Lan asked back.

Shen Rou thought about it and felt that there was some truth to it, so she stopped dwelling on the matter.

Looking at Zhang Lan lying beside her, she suddenly thought of something.

“Oh, by the way, didn’t you prepare another song? How’s it coming along?”

“It’s almost done. It should be available in about a week.”

Zhang Lan replied.

………….

The next day,

Tomorrow Group.

President’s Office,

Chen Mo looked at the Nanhe Coffee report Shen Rou sent him and sighed helplessly.

During this period,

Nanhe Coffee, with the introduction of its pastry sets, indirectly led to a decrease in the coffee shop’s consumption level, attracting many customers.

Currently, all consumption trends at Nanhe Cafe in Jiang City have stabilized. The monthly income of each store is about 100,000, while the monthly expenditure of a Nanhe Cafe store in Jiang City is about 150,000. This expenditure only includes employee salaries and daily coffee shop purchases, etc.

Therefore, Nanhe Coffee in Jiang City is still operating at a loss each month.

Of course, there are a few individual stores whose monthly revenue has exceeded 150,000, allowing Nanhe Coffee to turn a profit.

These stores are all located in bustling shopping malls or near large office buildings, where the per capita consumption level is much higher than in other locations, and the daily foot traffic is also much greater than in other areas.

Calculating this, plus the income from the two special coffee shops,

The current monthly revenue of Nanhe Coffee in Jiang City is approximately 3.1 million.

Of course, this is only the revenue of Nanhe Coffee in Jiang City, not including the income from Nanhe Coffee in Kyoto.

Currently, there are 15 Nanhe Cafes in operation in Kyoto, and the renovation of 6 more Nanhe Cafes is nearing completion.

As for the revenue of Nanhe Coffee in Kyoto, due to Kyoto’s dense population, per capita wages, and consumption levels, it is much higher than in Jiang City.

Currently, out of the 15 Nanhe Cafes in Kyoto, 12 have already turned a profit, and the revenue of the remaining two Nanhe Cafes is slowly increasing, so turning a profit is only a matter of time.

According to the revenue report for Nanhe Coffee in Kyoto,

Currently, the monthly labor costs and daily procurement expenses for Nanhe Coffee in Kyoto are around 250,000.

And now, the 10 coffee shops that have turned a profit have a monthly revenue of around 300,000, and even the three stores that haven’t turned a profit yet have a monthly revenue of 200,000.

In other words, the total monthly revenue of Nanhe Coffee in Kyoto has now reached 4.2 million.

Calculating this, the total monthly revenue of Nanhe Coffee is 7.3 million. Although this 7.3 million is not profit, this revenue will enter his system funds, meaning he needs to spend it.

Chen Mo rubbed his temples helplessly, feeling a pang of heartache at the thought of Nanhe Coffee’s previous losses.

A very unprofitable industry just disappeared like that.
