The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan

Chapter 124 Entering Hohhot
"Come on, have a drink, don't talk about my business, today is just to relax and drink." Lao Tan raised his glass and touched Yanhua.

Everyone has an unknown side and a story that they don't want to tell others.

So is Lao Tan.

He doesn't want to mention the situation between himself and Lin Yan to others, and tries to make people look like his marriage is good, his family is good, and everything is fine.

He is trying his best to change the indifference between Lin Yan and Lin Yan, but he knows in his heart that freezing three feet does not happen in a day, this situation is not caused in a day or two, and naturally it cannot be changed in a day or two.

Some things are unsolvable at this time, don't worry, leave everything to time to deal with.

Time will tell everything, and it can also solve some difficult problems, including the relationship between husband and wife.

After finishing the hot pot with Yanhua, he staggered home in the snow alone.

After the first snow since the beginning of winter, [-] has passed.While lamenting the ruthlessness of the years, people ushered in [-], the Year of the Horse.

The year of the ox and horse is a good farmland, which means that the year of the ox and horse has a good harvest and is a year of good harvest.

For restaurants, it is the same in any year. If you do well to make money, but if you do not do well to lose money, it has nothing to do with cattle and horses.

We summarize and report here.

In 140,000, the total investment of Aqiao Dumpling House was 52 million, including 300,000 for the old store, 32 for the Chishan Road store, and [-] for the Huangshan Road store.

The total turnover is 400,000, the old store is 3 million, the Chishan Road store is 400,000, (the opening of the Huangshan Road store on New Year's Day is not included.) The net profit is 82 million.

Excluding the 140,000 invested, the net income is 68.

Lao Tan's 20.00% dividend is 130,000 yuan, plus his monthly salary of 8000 yuan, the income is 200,000 yuan a year, which is quite a lot.

The two bosses paid 27 yuan each, which was pure profit, not counting their salaries.

At present, Lao Tan, Yanhua, and Yanzi are already in the high-income class, and they are preparing to enter a well-off society ahead of schedule.

At the end of the year, the three chatted together and were very satisfied with their income.Although it doesn't look like much, there are three stores, and the three stores are making profits every day. If they don't invest any more, the income of the three people can double. It's a good day to eat and drink.

If you decide not to be a restaurant now, the transfer of the three stores is worth at least 2 million, which is pure profit.Of course, it is impossible for the three of them not to do it, not only to do it, but also to do it.

During the Spring Festival, many people order New Year's Eve dinner.

I didn't make a decision last year, maybe because I thought the dumpling restaurant was small and didn't see it.This year is very different. It will be booked in the twelfth lunar month, and all three stores are fully booked by around the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

I originally planned to have a holiday during the Spring Festival, but this time I can't.The wages during the Spring Festival are in accordance with the national regulations, all double wages, triple wages for the [-]th, [-]st, and [-]nd days of junior high school.All the employees accepted it happily, and promised not to go home during the Chinese New Year, but to stay and stick to their posts.

In this regard, Yanhua and Yanzi are better than Mr. Xu. When Lao Tan proposed the salary of employees during the Spring Festival at the management meeting, they agreed without saying a word.

Yanhua said: "Let's follow the national regulations. During the Spring Festival, all the seven legal holidays are double-paid. Who doesn't want to go home for a reunion year? If they don't go home and work here, we have to pay even if we don't earn money, let alone earn money. money."

Yanzi said: "I strongly support it, it is necessary, and on the [-]th night, we have to have a dinner together and give out red envelopes."

"Thank you two bosses!" Zhongqing said happily.

"It's a blessing for the employees to have you two bosses at the stall." Zhang Li said with a smile.

"Having such employees is our blessing, it's not old Tan." Yanhua said.

Old Tan smiled in agreement.

"Our family now has three restaurants. At present, the business is very good and there is a prospect for development. As the saying goes, it is easier to defend the country than it is to defend the country. Whether a restaurant develops well and whether it can continue to develop for a long time depends not on how many stores there are, but on how many restaurants there are. It is whether every store can persevere. We opened two stores in one or three years, and also renovated the old store. We did nothing else for a year and completely renovated the store.

So in the first half of [-], let's recuperate and practice internal strength.Focus on dishes in the kitchen, focus on service at the front desk, improve process standards, standardize rules and regulations, build an organizational structure, and build a corporate culture at the same time to lay the foundation for the next step of development.

In [-], we plan to open two more stores, reaching five.We don't need to worry about opening a store. We should fight steadily to open a successful business and not fight uncertain battles.Don't overstretch the front line, you must ensure the supply, and you must keep up with the management.Management can't keep up with anything. "

After Lao Tan made a simple summary plan, the meeting ended.

The people who attended the meeting left one after another, leaving Lao Tan, Yanhua, and Yanzi in the conference room.The three of them made plans for the Chinese New Year, mainly how to feed and drink the employees, and how to reward them for meritorious deeds.

Executives each receive 5000 yuan in red envelopes, middle managers each receive [-] yuan, and employees receive [-] yuan each.

Bonuses are distributed according to work points. Those with high scores will naturally get more, and those with low scores will naturally get less. No one will say anything, and it has an incentive effect.

Those with low scores must be those who joined the company late and did not work hard. Seeing others get bonuses is guaranteed to be envious, and those who are interested will say in their hearts that they must work hard and get bonuses if they strive for it.

It must be said that the work-point system is a good management method, which subjectively stimulates employees' work enthusiasm, effectively improves work efficiency, and is fair and just. It really means more work and more pay, and there is nothing false.

What's more, there is no trouble of selecting outstanding employees at the end of the year. It is enough to just look at the scores when rewarding meritorious deeds. No one raises objections, and I am convinced.

The first time the work-point system was effective in Dumpling House was in March 200, when the Chishan Road store was preparing to open.Many employees in the old store who have worked for two years have achieved 100 points, their wages have been automatically increased by [-] yuan, and they have also received [-] yuan of filial piety funds every month, which makes the employees very happy.

At that time, preparations were being made for the opening of the Chishan Road store, and all the new employees recruited were trained in the old store.The new employees were shocked when they saw that the old employees raised their wages automatically and gave Xiaoci additional funds. They thought this restaurant was very good, and they were determined to continue working here.In addition, the old employees said that as long as they do a good job, the salary will be raised when the score is reached, and there will be a seniority bonus after working for half a year, and a full attendance bonus of 300 yuan per month, etc. What they say is more sincere than publicity. Listening to my heart, I made up my mind.

Immediately afterwards, the employees with a score of [-] points began to go out for two days in the province at public expense in batches, which further stimulated the old employees and new employees who did not reach the score.

Therefore, the recruitment of Aqiao Dumpling Restaurant is very easy. Most of them are introduced by the employees of the store, and there is no need to post any recruitment.

After deciding to give red envelopes to employees, Yanzi said another thing.

Zhang Yu is determined to cooperate with the dumpling restaurant.

The cooperation is like this. Yanzi and him have established a relationship. In fact, they are a family.His restaurant was closed for renovation in the spring of the year, and then handed over to Yanzi for management.

That is to say, Yanzi was the owner of the restaurant at first, and Zhang Yu, like Lao Feng in the past, did not participate in the management, but just supported him silently behind the scenes.In this way, the establishment of Aqiao Dumpling Restaurant is justifiable.

"I think the catering market in Hushi is better than that of the provincial capital. I stayed there for a month and carefully inspected it. Our dumpling restaurant is guaranteed to be open there. And we have to develop overseas sooner or later. I mean now There are ready-made restaurants, you can try it, open one first, and if it is good, then go on to study, even if it doesn’t work, you won’t lose money.” Yanzi said.

Lao Tan and Yanhua didn't speak immediately, they looked at each other and smiled.

"What are you two laughing at? Am I wrong?" Yanzi felt a little terrified seeing the two laughing.

"Yes, it's just that the elbows are a little bit outward, and girls are extroverted." Old Tan joked.

"Go." Yanzi blushed a little.

"I talked to Lao Tan about this when you went to Hohhot. Let's not talk about it. It's not important. The important thing is that you decided to spend time with Mr. Zhang? You have to think about it." Yanhua asked with a smile.

"——" Yanzi thought for a while and said, "I think he is a good person, and he treats me well. How can I say it, it's decided."

After speaking, two pink roses rose on her cheeks, which is rare.

Old Tan put away the joke, and said seriously: "If you decide to be with Zhang Yu, then we will develop in Hohhot, for nothing else, as long as Sister Yan is happy."

Yan Huaxiang followed suit and nodded.

Swallow was moved, and his eyes became moist for a moment.

"You two agree?"

"I agree, if you disagree, just tell Lao Tan, as long as Sister Yan is happy." Yanhua said.

"When will you get married and do business? Yanhua and I will accompany you to a hotel." Old Tan laughed.

The three laughed together.

The most rare thing between people is mutual trust.No one can completely open their hearts and trust others unconditionally.But we must show our sincerity to get along with others, and treat people sincerely in the process of getting along, without falsehood, in order to gain trust.

Trust is mutual. This mutual trust does not necessarily have to be trusted by the other party, but trusts oneself on a certain basis, and then trusts the other party.Any trust is built on strong self-confidence in yourself. Without self-confidence, it is difficult to gain trust.

Therefore, we often have to look back at the internal photos and remind ourselves that it is not that no one trusts us, but that we give the impression that we are not confident, and who dares to trust us.

Lao Tan, Yanhua, and Yanzi trust each other. It is the existence of this kind of trust that makes Aqiao Dumpling Restaurant develop so well. At the same time, the three have gained a solid and precious friendship with each other.

It is not impossible to open a store in Hohhot, but at the beginning the three of them made an agreement not to cooperate or join, and only do direct sales.So when Zhang Yu proposed cooperation, he was rejected.

It's different now, Zhang Yu and Yanzi are a family, it's totally fine.

And the redecoration is invested by Aqiao Dumpling House, Zhang Yu doesn't need to contribute, he has a share of the money, who told him that he and Yanzi belong to the same family.As for how to divide him and Yanzi, that's their business, and no one else can control it.

A Qiao Dumpling House is going to go to the whole country. This is one of Lao Tan's goals. In his words, after a lifetime of catering, he must do something, and ask the catering industry to give himself an explanation.

In [-], enter Hohhot!
