Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 385

Chapter 385: Chapter 385: Indomitable Spirit

Winter had arrived, with shorter days and longer nights, and time flew swiftly, bringing the end of October in the blink of an eye. It was also the day for Cheng Su to balance the books for her two business ventures.

At Joy Soon Loy Jam, with the professional Ying Xiaoya joining the financial team and having become familiar with the company’s operations for a while, the accounting was exceptionally clear, detailed, and easy to understand.

Cheng Su and Ning Ge carefully reviewed the ledgers and breathed a sigh of relief as the accounts balanced out without loss or gain, managing to earn a salary on top, which was truly unexpected.

There’s a saying that it’s easy to start a business but hard to keep it going, and the same is true for running one. In the initial month, one generally shouldn’t expect large profits, especially for medium and small enterprises like theirs, where the control of various costs and company operations meant spending far more money than her restaurant.

As for the restaurant’s profitability from the start, it was due to Cheng Su capturing the essential nature of the people’s priority on food and the novelty of the fast food she offered, which also tapped into the public’s desire for novelty, besides keeping costs low.

But the Jam Company was different, with significant initial investments, so breaking even now without any loss was already a joyous occasion for them. As for breaking even on capital, they would take it slow.

"I believe we’ll start making money from next month," Cheng Su said with a smile.

Ning Ge, however, appeared indifferent, saying, "The main thing is that our business isn’t fully operational yet, and the market hasn’t completely opened up."

"Any news from Beijing?" Cheng Su asked him.

"It’s good news. The banquet is over, and our company’s products have received positive reviews. So, I will make a trip back to the Capital to see how much business I can bring back. I plan to take two salesmen with me," Ning Ge stated.

Cheng Su nodded, saying, "Wang Gang is sharp, and he’s also in charge of markets outside Qing City. Take him along!"

After monitoring over the last month or two, among the many salesmen, Wang Gang was the most capable—sweet-talking, good at drinking, a natural charmer, hence, boasting the highest sales and earning the highest wages in the company.

According to Cheng Su’s own plans, if Wang Gang could keep up the good work and stay loyal to the company, she would heavily invest in his development.
