From Cannon Fodder to '80s Tycoon with My Space Supermarket-Chapter 228 - 168: Hands-Off Boss (Part 3)

Around this vegetable market, renting a warehouse like this would probably not cost less than twenty dollars per month.

Moreover, he is just standing at the warehouse entrance and doesn’t know the real size of the warehouse inside.

If the area is larger, wouldn’t it mean spending more on rent to keep the warehouse?

But ultimately, the boss makes money, so naturally, he as a subordinate is also happy.

When the warehouse door opened, Lin Ye was completely shocked. He initially thought that the warehouse Jiang Xin rented was small, after all, they are just running a small business. Although they have a variety of goods, typically they wouldn’t store that much inventory.

Because if they can’t deal with it all, the excess goods just become a burden.

The biggest fear in small business is not making money.

Though their market stall business is fairly prosperous now, renting such a large warehouse is indeed somewhat too big.

Looking around, Lin Ye saw that the warehouse area was about more than fifty square meters, and it was already neatly organized. All the goods on the shelves in the warehouse were arranged tidily.

Moreover, everything has been sorted according to categories.

If he came to pick goods from the warehouse every day, he would only need to take them directly from the shelves. He also noticed that each item had a price tag marked on it.

Lin Ye harbored a vague suspicion and recalled Jiang Xin’s behaviors these days, feeling she genuinely wants to be a hands-off manager without dealing with any trivial matters.

Sure enough, just as this thought arose in his mind, he heard Jiang Xin speak:

"You take this key first, tomorrow you just come here to collect the goods directly."

"I won’t be coming every day, when you pick the goods, look at the price tag on the shelves and note each item’s pricing."

"I’ll come by every now and then, if there’s anything I need to know, just inform me."

Jiang Xin extended her hand and handed him a key. Lin Ye’s forehead was immediately sweating as he realized managing such a large warehouse seemed quite... mission impossible.

Lin Ye didn’t know what to say, though he felt slightly moved because he understood it was a sign of the boss’s trust. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be given such an important thing to manage.

Lin Ye hesitated, not sure whether to accept the key or not.

Seeing his expression, Jiang Xin understood his hesitation, knowing if it were her, she would feel quite pressured by suddenly being given such a big task.

Moreover, there’s a concern of failing the task and making the boss angry.

Jiang Xin directly handing the warehouse key to Lin Ye signified that she wouldn’t handle the varieties of goods sold daily; it was all left to Lin Ye.

Under such situations, anyone would likely feel pressured.

Jiang Xin considered the situation and realized that she couldn’t completely disengage at this moment as it might pose some challenges. So she spoke again:

"Alright, I have spare keys here, don’t worry."

"I’ll come to the warehouse every night to sort out the goods to be sold the next day and pack them in a bag. When you come the next morning, you can directly pick them up."

"If any product sells well, you can come here again for more, making everything more convenient."

"Although I do want to become hands-off, I can’t be too detached. Some matters I still need to handle personally, rest assured."

After hearing Jiang Xin’s words, Lin Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, dealing with all the sold items alone would be excessively challenging.

Furthermore, he’s quite a straightforward person; even though he’s been doing stall business at this market for some time, he really isn’t skilled at choosing what to sell.
