At this point in time, not to mention the takeout industry, even the errand business would take at least ten years to really take off.
The reason was very simple. In the later stages, before the take-out business had really developed, before the two camps of America and Hunger had started to make a difference, the errand business had also been popular for a while.
Almost all the big and small cities had many errand companies, such as Cao Cao's errand company, Lightning Express Company, and so on.
The business of these errand companies was actually very simple. If the customer needed to buy or deliver something, they would just buy it and deliver it to them.
However, even such a simple business had a prerequisite, which was that they had to be able to contact each other at any time from the customer to the errand company to the riders.
However, at this time, not many people could afford a cell phone or a mobile phone. Even a Beeper could only be used by the rich. The communication fee was too expensive!
However, Zhang Mu wasn't dreaming when he thought of doing this. There were real successful cases.
Twenty years later, China and even the rest of the world were enjoying the fast and convenient delivery service formed by the Internet as a medium. However, India's delivery shocked the world!
This group of delivery men called 'dabbawala' was different from ordinary delivery men. Their main business was to deliver the love lunches that wives made for their husbands and children from the suburbs to the city center.
In India, it was already a habit to have Dhabawara deliver lunch. It was even a very prestigious thing to do.
If a married man ate takeout instead of lunch prepared by his wife, he would be looked down upon by his colleagues and friends.
This group of dabbawalas, who used the most primitive means of transportation to deliver food, only delivered one wrong order every six million. The almost unbelievable error rate shocked the world!
In his previous life, when a certain regiment had just started, Zhang Mu had been the regional manager of the northern region and was in charge of the entire business in the north.
It was also at that time that Zhang Mu had an in-depth understanding of the food delivery market in various countries. He had also done an in-depth study of the Indian specialty dabbawala. It was not a problem to follow the other party's procedures and operate it.
However, there was a problem that needed to be solved, which was how to win more customers. Zhang Mu planned to get at least 50,000 customers in the first episode, even if he couldn't get 100,000 customers.
Even if it was just 50,000 people, the total monthly fee would be 2.5 million. Even if the cost was reduced by half, there would still be 1.25 million yuan left!
If he could get 100,000 or more people, his monthly profit would be in the millions!
However, there was a prerequisite for obtaining such a terrifying profit, and that was to invest at least one to two million yuan in the early stages. After all, the more customers they served, the more staff they needed to hire.
Other than that, he also needed many cars, motorcycles, and other means of transportation, all of which required money.
However, the 800,000 that he 'borrowed' a few days ago was now left with less than 500,000. The problem that needed to be solved the most was…Money!
After chatting with the three little girls for a while, Zhang Mu stood up and said,"
"You guys can rest for a while and continue working. I'll be leaving first. Dahai, buy some Jianlibao and other drinks later and send them to everyone.“
"That's enough. I haven't spent much of the 200 yuan you gave me just now. It's enough to buy drinks, but I'll still ride my bicycle to deliver it.”
Zhen Yihai quickly replied.
"Up to you. I'll leave first. I still have things to do.”
"Manager Zhang, slow down!"
After leaving the service point at the entrance of Lianhua Supermarket, Zhang Mu first went to a nearby place to take a look at the shop that he had rented for the past two days.
He had spent 300,000 yuan in a few days. It was not spent casually. Every cent was spent on the blade.
Since he wanted to set up a company, he definitely needed an office. The area around the New World Department Store where Lianhua Supermarket was located could be said to be the most prosperous place in Shanghai.
Zhang Mu rented a place on Nanjing Road. At this time, Nanjing Road was not as prosperous as it would be in the future. The area was only about 200 square meters, but the annual rent was more than 180,000 yuan.
This price was enough to buy a house in a slightly more remote place in Shanghai, or even two in Shanghai!
The shop had just been rented for two days, so it would take at least a few more days to renovate. After handing each person a cigarette, Zhang Mu threw down another Hongtashan and said to the foreman,
"Engineer Wang, I'll have to trouble you guys for the next few days. I have something to do here and can't come over often.”
"Whoa, thank you so much, boss. Don't worry, even if no one is watching us, we will work hard. It will take at most a week. You can check and accept it. If there are any areas that are not done well, we will fix them for you for free!”
The foreman didn't pretend and took the cigarette with a smile.
Although Hongtashan was only seven yuan per pack, which was not very expensive, they were usually reluctant to smoke. After all, renovation in this era did not make money at all.
As he was speaking, the iPhone in Zhang Mu's pocket rang.
"Hello, boss, I've arrived at the west side of New World. Where are you?”
