Chapter 65
On this day, Cheng Huailiang and the others made an appointment to visit again, and Chen Jingke took the opportunity to express his plan:
"I wonder if any of you know anything about Kai Restaurant?"
For some reason, Qin Yandao was a little embarrassed.
There was a deviation in Yuchi Xunyu's understanding, and he said: "Does the real person want to entertain guests? I know a few restaurants with good taste, and I will introduce them to you."
It was Cheng Huailiang who was more reliable, and said: "There are many dignitaries in Beijing who do restaurant business, do real people intend to get involved in the restaurant industry?"
Chen Jingke didn't hide it, and said: "Zixiao Guanjia's big business is big and expensive, and we don't plan to do things to make money, so we need to find an additional way to make money."
"In the past few days, I went around the city and found that the restaurant industry is more suitable."
At this time, Qin Yandao interjected: "There are too many restaurants in the capital, and the taste of the dishes is similar, and there are very few real moneymakers, so be careful."
Hearing his words, both Cheng Huailiang and Yuchi Xunyu laughed.Chen Jingke was a little confused, what's so funny about this?
It was Qin Yandao who explained the reason himself: "My family also opened a restaurant, and I wanted to earn some money to subsidize the family, but... well, I'm ashamed to say that I've been subsidizing money every year."
Chen Jingke finally understood what was going on, and couldn't help but smile: "Since you don't make money, why don't you stop?"
Qin Yandao felt embarrassed again.
Cheng Huailiang winked at him and pointed to his own face.
Chen Jingke was puzzled at first, and then suddenly realized that it was a matter of face.
Although their family's restaurant is opened in the name of a servant, they are all in the same circle. Everyone knows that it is the property of Yi Guogong's mansion.
Closing it down will indeed make people laugh, and no one can do anything about it if the atmosphere is like this.
According to their description, it is not Qin Qiong's family who are suffering this kind of face-saving, but many families.
Chen Jingke couldn't help asking a few more questions, only to find out that Cheng Yaojin's restaurant was very profitable, and even opened a branch.
What he didn't expect was that Yuchi's restaurant also made money.
After careful questioning, he found out that it was Yuchi Baolin's credit. This man was completely different from his father. He was proficient in everything, relying on a group of cronies to support the restaurant.
In the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the resourceful and righteous Qin Qiong lost money in business, while the brutal and reckless Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong made money instead.
This thing is very speechless.
However, this made him see business opportunities. At this time, the homogenization of restaurant dishes is serious, and the restaurant that makes money does not depend on the delicious food, but on the face of the owner and the location.
This is his chance as a time traveler, let's start cooking.
First rely on differentiation to attract customers, wait for other restaurants to succeed in stealing, and then launch a few signature dishes to stabilize regular customers, and this is almost done.
He also has a big advantage in opening a restaurant, which is backed by Zixiao Temple.
There is an endless stream of pilgrims who come to the temple every day to offer incense, and small vendors who have already started to set up stalls in the square at the entrance.
A small market is about to take shape, and business prosperity will further attract a larger flow of people.
He built the restaurant opposite Zixiao Temple, so there is no shortage of customers.
This is also the reason why he left such a large open space when he designed the Taoist temple.
It will be very convenient to gather people together to do anything.
Moreover, this area is still a wealthy area in Chang'an City, there are not too many dignitaries living here, and there is no shortage of customers.
In fact, Chen Jingke had planned these things long ago, and the reason why he called the three of them for another purpose: "Are you interested in getting involved?"
The three of them were taken aback, they didn't expect him to make such a suggestion,
Cheng Huailiang couldn't help but ask, "Really?"
Chen Jingke said: "The three of you provide land and money, and I provide people to provide dishes and take care of the management. Each of you will take [-]% of the share, and you can just wait for the dividends later, how about it?"
"This..." The three of them looked at each other in blank dismay. We paid for the land to build the restaurant, and each family only got [-]% of it. You only paid [-]% for management.
If someone else suggested that they would have turned their backs on it long ago, is there something wrong with their brains?
As for the dishes, they selectively ignored them. With their family background, they could even learn the skills of imperial cuisine in the palace. In other words, there were not too many restaurants in Chang'an City that claimed to be related to imperial cuisine.
They didn't believe that Chen Jingke could come up with any new tricks.
So... Of course they chose to readily agree, whoever made this matter was brought up by Chen Jingke.
Qin Yandao couldn't wait to say: "Okay, which piece of land does the little real person have his eyes on? If it doesn't work, just give up my restaurant."
Cheng Huailiang said with a smile: "I have saved some personal money over the years, and I put it away, and I simply take it out and make a small fortune with real people."
Yuchi Xunyu was more simple and direct: "There is nothing to say, the little real person is willing to make me rich, I can only wish for it."
Chen Jingke knew what they were thinking, and he would doubt it himself.
But he didn't explain too much, as long as they are willing to pay now, everything will be understood when the restaurant opens.
As for why he only gave each of them [-]% of the shares, it was not that he was stingy, but that he was prepared to bring in a few more companies when he had the opportunity.
At that time, you can directly dilute your own shares, which can avoid a lot of trouble.
He already has a preliminary idea of who to bring in, but whether to bring these people in or not depends on the later development.
When the matter was agreed upon, everyone started to act. The three of Cheng Huailiang went home and told the family about the matter, which naturally gained support.
The three families jointly took the land that Chen Jingke liked at a high price, and then remodeled it according to the drawings he gave.
Chen Jingke was not idle either, first went to the printing workshop of the Outer Court to find those craftsmen, and asked about the printing situation of the Taoist catalog and scriptures.
Tian Dachun reported, "[-] sets have been printed now. I was not familiar with printing before, but now everyone is more and more familiar with it, and the speed can be accelerated."
Chen Jingke casually picked up a bound book and flipped through it. It was indeed very clear and neat. He said with satisfaction: "Yes, you have done a good job. Ten craftsmen will each be rewarded with one hundred coins."
Tian Dachun hurriedly said: "You can't do it, the real person has given us enough, we don't have the face to ask for your money."
Chen Jingke said: "I'm a person who always pays attention to rewards and punishments. If I do a good job, I will not hesitate to reward. If anyone messes things up by cheating, I will ruin his job."
Tian Dachun said gratefully: "Thank you for the reward, don't worry, we will definitely do a good job."
Then he loudly told other people the good news. The craftsmen and their families cheered and thanked Chen Jingke.
Chen Jingke briefly said a few words to encourage them, then called out the craftsmen, took out a few pages of paper and said: "Here are a few things, you can find a way to make them, I will be of great use."
