Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

Chapter 505 There are other conditions, of course
"well said!"

Uncle Yi suddenly slapped the table and said loudly: "In life, you really shouldn't care about too much, but it's enough to ask for peace of mind!"

Speaking of this, Uncle Yi turned his head to look at Cao Zhiqiang, and said with a gratified expression: "Qiangzi, what I said to you today is that you deserve to get rich and get promoted!"

"Well said." Yu Li followed with a smile, "If Qiangzi is now the big boss, the big leader, the situation is different."

Uncle Yi sighed and said, "I didn't expect, I didn't expect that there would be a character like Qiang Zi in our courtyard.

It is said that the third uncle in our yard is the best at calculating. From my point of view, his calculations are small. Compared with you, Qiangzi, he is nothing. You are the one with big calculations and a big heart. "

"Yes, yes, yes." Yan Jiecheng laughed quickly, "If you want me to say, my dad is all a little schemer. It took less than a year to achieve today's climate, this must be a big calculation."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly: "Okay, they are all neighbors in the same courtyard. We have known each other for so long, and no one knows the other, so there is no need to say these words."

After a short pause, Cao Zhiqiang looked at Yu Li: "Aunt Yu, you came to me specifically to talk about this, right? Is there anything else? You can just speak directly if you have something to say, and you don't need to beat around the bush."

Yu Li frowned, looked at the others, and then said with a dry smile, "Here, are you talking here?"

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "They are not outsiders, so let's talk directly."

Yu Li lowered her head, rolled her eyes, thought for a while, and then sighed: "Well, since this is the case, I'm not afraid of being embarrassed, so I can speak directly."

Immediately afterwards, Yu Li raised her head and said seriously to Cao Zhiqiang: "Qiangzi, that's it. As for me, it wasn't that my unit was not doing well, so I stayed without pay and planned to open a restaurant by myself and become a self-employed person.

Then, we invested all the money in it, borrowed money, and finally opened the restaurant.

As a result, it has been open for such a long time, and it has always been losing money, and basically no customers come to the door.

But every day, the water and electricity, the rent, the wages of the waiters, and various purchases are all indispensable.

Anyway, I only go out but not in every day, losing money every day, my heart, it makes me uncomfortable to watch.

Later I found out that the restaurant business is not doing well, not because of the location or something, but because the taste of the food is not good, and there are other restaurants around that compete with us.

The food in other restaurants, to be honest, is better than ours.

For the same dish, the price is the same as ours, but the taste is better than ours, so whoever changes it will go to other restaurants, not ours.

Therefore, I figured out a reason, that is to open a restaurant, you must have a good cook, without a good cook, there will be no good food, and without good food, the customers will not come.

So, I just wanted to ask Sha Zhu for help, and I never thought about asking him to be the chef. I knew I couldn't invite him, so I just thought about asking him to be an apprentice.

But who knew, when Shazhu heard my request, he directly opened his mouth to the lion, saying that he wanted 500 yuan a month, and he could only send me a cook, and he had to give me a month's salary in advance.

If Sha Zhu goes, I will definitely give it without saying a word, but he is just an apprentice, and he wants me to pay 500 yuan a month's salary, and I have to pay it in advance. How can this be done?
If his apprentice is not good enough, and he has to be fired later, won't I lose a month's salary in vain?

I begged Silly Zhu to be flexible, to send someone to help me first, and then pay the wages when the business is good.

If the business really improves and there is money to be made, I will definitely give 500 yuan.

But Silly Zhu just refused to listen and insisted that I give it in advance. Isn't this a rascal! "

"That's right!" Yan Jiecheng said, "The wages are not given in advance, there is no such reason, I think Shazhu is just cheating!"

Yu Li smiled and said to Cao Zhiqiang: "Then, when I was still begging Sha Zhu, Sha Zhu kicked me out, and then I saw Lou Xiao'e bringing He Xiao over, you said it was a big deal , it's true."

After shaking her head, Yu Li looked at Cao Zhiqiang again, and said with a smile on her face: "Zhiqiang, since Sha Zhu's heart is not with you now, what about you, you have a big family and a great career, and you are not afraid of Sha Zhu leaving, then can you Can't you lend me a cook?

If you are willing to lend me a chef, I will definitely listen to you for everything, but you can see if the salary can be less.

Anyway, you are not short of 80 yuan, so I will help you for Aunt Yu, okay? "

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly and shook his head lightly.

"Ah, can't it?" Yu Li frowned, "Zhiqiang, I'll just treat you as Aunt Yu begging you, okay? Help! You don't want to see us lose everything and finally close down?"

Cao Zhiqiang chuckled and said, "I didn't say I wouldn't help you, but I just think your horizons are too small. I just borrowed a cook, so what's the use of that?"

"It works." Yan Jiecheng said with a smile, "As long as you have a good cook and cook good meals, customers will come to your door, and your business will naturally improve. Why doesn't it work?"

"Shut up!" Yu Li glared at Yan Jiecheng, "Since Zhiqiang said that, he must have a better idea, so just shut up and listen honestly!"

After angering her husband, Yu Li turned her head again, and said to Cao Zhiqiang with a coquettish smile: "Zhiqiang, tell me, we are all listening."

Only then Cao Zhiqiang nodded and said with a smile: "When it comes to eating, we all pay attention to the color, fragrance, taste and fragrance. Of course, it goes without saying that we really pay attention to the chef's craftsmanship, but this color is not only about the chef's craftsmanship."

After a pause, Cao Zhiqiang continued: "Actually, the dining environment is also very important. The British once conducted an experiment in which a chef cooked a dish and divided it into two portions for two unsuspecting guests to eat.

One of the guests listened to the violin and ate this dish with exquisite tableware in a very elegant and high-end environment.

Another customer ate his portion of the meal on dirty, cheap cutlery in a dingy little restaurant.

The dishes eaten by the two guests are the same, but the environment is different and the tableware is different. In the end, the two guests have different evaluations of the dish, and even feel that the taste is different.

It can be seen that the dining environment is very important, at least it can increase the taste of a meal, improve your own taste, and the price can naturally be sold.

So, I think you might as well take this opportunity to close the door directly, and then redecorate your humble restaurant first, at least paint the walls, change a set of tables, chairs and tableware, and the waiters should also put on beautiful uniforms , By the way, get another tape recorder, it’s okay to play a soothing piano piece or something as the background sound.

With these hardware conditions, put up a beautiful neon sign, and then I will transfer a cook to you, this will be plausible and the business will improve. "

Yu Li was stunned for a moment, and then said after a while: "Oh, Zhiqiang, what you said, how much would it cost? I don't have any money, so I can't do it anymore."

"Not afraid." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "If you have no money, I can lend you money."

"Borrow money?" Yu Li frowned, "How much? How much interest?"

Cao Zhiqiang thought for a while: "I've heard about the restaurant in your house, the environment in that place is not bad, the flow of people is quite good, so there is no need to change places.

The location is no problem, the next step is decoration.

Well, you redecorate the place inside and out, tidy up the facade, put up a neon sign, put up some umbrellas outside, get a new batch of tables and chairs, and order a batch of employee uniforms or something , In this way, I will lend you 2 yuan, which should be more than enough. "

"2 yuan?" Yu Li opened her mouth wide, "So much? Just decoration?"

"Of course." Cao Zhiqiang said, "Just buying an air conditioner will cost more than 6000 yuan, and it's autumn, and winter will soon be coming, and a heating boiler is needed. 2 yuan is not much at all."

Yu Li frowned and said, "How much is the interest for 2 yuan?"

Cao Zhiqiang chuckled: "Hehe, it's all from my own family, so I don't need any interest, just pay it back within two years."

"No interest?" Yu Li's eyes widened, "Really?"

"Of course it is true." Cao Zhiqiang nodded.

"But it's a lot of pressure to pay it back in two years." Yan Xiecheng said, "Two years, to pay back [-], ouch, this, this is not easy to earn, how can we pay it back in two years."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly: "Don't worry, as long as you follow my method, you will be able to pay off my 2 yuan in less than a year, and the rest will be yours, and you will make more and more money in the future."

"Really?" Yan Xiecheng's eyes widened.

"What's true or not?" Yu Li glared at Yan Jiecheng, "Who is Zhiqiang? If someone says he can, he must be able to. You should say a few words less."

Speaking of this, Yu Li looked at Cao Zhiqiang again: "Okay, since you said so, then I must believe it, but, is there any other conditions for such a good thing as interest-free borrowing?"

"There are other conditions, of course." Cao Zhiqiang nodded with a smile.

"What are the conditions?" Yu Li asked as expected.

Cao Zhiqiang said: "In this way, I will lend you money to renovate, and I will also send you the chef we trained, and even give you some of our secret recipes. However, your restaurant has to change its name. As for what name to change, I haven't decided yet. Think it over and talk about it later.

In short, I plan to use your restaurant as a pilot to implement my Malatang chain store model. "

"Malatang chain store model?" Yu Li frowned, "What do you mean?"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "Didn't I mention it before, Shiweitian is not just a restaurant, it's more like a restaurant training school for me to train my own chefs and waiters.

Of course, in addition to this, I can also use this to recruit some employees of the machinery factory and reduce the wage pressure of the machinery factory.

In short, I plan to open another special fast food restaurant that focuses on ordinary people in addition to food is the sky.

This kind of specialty fast food restaurant, instead of having the customers order and the chef cook the dishes as in the past, only serves a kind of spicy hot pot similar to hot pot.

For Malatang, you only need to have a fixed soup pot base, and then prepare all kinds of vegetables and meat.

When the guests come, choose the ingredients to eat, weigh and calculate the price according to the type and quantity of the ingredients, and then cook them with a special spicy soup base, and then serve them to the guests.

In this way, you don’t need too many chefs, and you don’t need chefs to have high cooking skills. You only need to have a good base, good seasoning, fresh ingredients and good taste for Malatang, which can greatly reduce operating costs.

In addition, of course, some beverages such as milk tea should be added, which are all cheap but can make a lot of money.

As long as the taste is good, the price is moderate, and the dining environment is good, this Malatang will definitely become popular.

Once your pilot project is successful and everyone recognizes Malatang, then I will open three stores in one go, no, five stores of the same type, with the same signboard, the same business method, and the same food products, just come here Swarm combat.

At that time, this Malatang fast food restaurant will become a star restaurant. When everyone thinks of Malatang, they will think of my store.

In this way, the industry can be made bigger and earn more money than ordinary restaurants. "

"Sounds good." Yu Li smiled, "But if you let our restaurant serve as a pilot for you, do you have any other requirements?"

"Of course." Cao Zhiqiang smiled.

"Once you agree to my plan, your restaurant will become my franchise store, and you can't use your own signboard, but must use my signboard, and the decoration environment, staff uniforms, and operating regulations must follow my wishes.

In addition, you have to go to the food regularly to buy the bottom material of Malatang.

I won’t tell you the formula of Malatang’s base material, we can only produce it in advance, and if you run out of materials, you can buy from us.

In addition, regardless of the fact that I personally lent you money, you have to pay us a brand fee in proportion to the income of your Malatang fast food restaurant every month. The brand fee will not be much, but it must be there.

Don't think that this brand fee is a disadvantage, in fact, you are not at a disadvantage.

Because after I open a few more chain stores, I will regularly use the signboard of the franchise store to advertise in various channels, such as newspapers, radio, and even TV.

Therefore, the brand fee you pay is equivalent to advertising fee.

The most important thing is that only by paying the brand fee regularly can we continue to use our exclusive formula, otherwise we cannot continue to use it.

Can you understand what I said? "

Yu Li blinked: "That is to say, the restaurant we opened with our own money has to listen to everything from you, and the signboard is also yours, and we have to pay a management fee every month?"

Cao Zhiqiang said: "Pay attention to my mouth shape, brand fee!"

"No matter what the fee is, you have to pay it every month anyway, according to the income ratio, right?" Yu Li asked.

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang nodded.

"Only if you agree to these conditions, will you lend us money and cook?" Yu Li asked again.

"Yes!" Cao Zhiqiang nodded again with a smile.

Yu Li frowned: "Can we think about it?"

"Think about it casually." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "But it shouldn't be too long, if it takes too long, I have other choices, and someone helps me to try Malatang, then everything I said before will be void. "

"Okay, I see." Yu Li nodded with a serious face, "I will think about it as soon as possible, and I will definitely give you an answer early.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Li stood up and said, "Well, let's go first if there's nothing to do, and we'll talk later."

After speaking, Yu Li gave Yan Xiecheng a wink, and Yan Xiecheng quickly stood up.

Only then did Yu Li continue to smile and nod to Uncle Yi, Cao Jiajia, Cao Zhiqiang and Wu Qinghong respectively, then turned around and hurried away with Yan Jiecheng.
