Chapter 215 Fast Food Brands
This is also the etymology of the English name "Causeway Bay" (sea wall Bay) of Causeway Bay.In the 20s, a large-scale reclamation project was carried out in Causeway Bay to level the bay. Part of the obtained land was used to build traffic arteries, and part of it became the current Victoria Park, and Kellett Island was also connected to the land.

Causeway Bay was already the largest shopping mall in Asia in the 80s, attracting a large number of people every day.The average rent in Causeway Bay is about 19.4 yuan per square meter, which is more than twice the rent of the largest commercial street in Japan.

Yang Xue found a parking place and led the two of them towards Times Square on foot. The shops along the side were either clothing stores or jewelry stores, which were very bustling.Mitsukoshi Department Store covers an area of ​​more than [-] acres, with a height of six floors. The luxurious interior decoration is not weaker than that of domestic shopping malls decades later.

The three of them walked into the mall and asked the mall staff before arriving at the leasing manager's office of the mall.

The leasing manager asked: "Hello, sir! You two want to rent a booth. What kind of business are you running?"

Bai Zirui said in unproficient Cantonese: "Manager, we plan to rent a shop at the bottom of the shopping mall to engage in the catering industry. Is there any suitable or expired shop?"

Listening to Bai Zirui's unproficient Cantonese, the manager asked suspiciously: "Did the two of you just come from the northern mainland?"

Yang Xue knew that Xiangjiang people look down on people from the mainland, so she lied and said: "Manager, I just came from Wanwan, and I will settle in Xiangjiang in the future. I can speak English more fluently than Cantonese, if it is convenient." You can also communicate in English."

The manager said politely: "It turns out that they are compatriots from Wanwan, sorry... sorry, let's communicate in Mandarin."

Bai Zirui glanced at Yang Xue gratefully, and then asked with a smile: "Manager, does our mall have a floor shop of about [-] feet?"

The manager pondered for a while and replied: "Our shopping mall is suitable for the catering industry. There are currently three bases, one is 400 square feet, one is 1000 square feet, and the other is 2000 square feet. The 1000-square-foot one will expire soon and there is no renewal It is planned that the 2000-square-foot ground floor belongs to the customer personally, and it will be sold or sublet, and it will expire in about half a month."

After hearing the manager's words, Bai Zirui felt a little depressed. The [-]-square-meter store was a bit small, and the [-]-square-meter store was a bit big. He asked in a deep voice, "Manager, what are the prices of the two larger shops?"

The manager introduced patiently: "Sir, the monthly rent for a 1000-square-foot store is about 600 Hong Kong dollars, and a 2000-square-foot store is about 1000 Hong Kong dollars. The minimum rent is three years and the minimum payment is half a year, and the rent is half a year."

A rent of 7200 square meters is 12000 Hong Kong dollars, and a rent of [-] square meters is [-] Hong Kong dollars. This is the salary of ordinary people for several years. It seems that opening a store is really not something anyone can open if they want to.

Bai Zirui asked again: "Manager, what is the selling price of the 2000-square-foot shop?"

The manager replied: "Sir, the price is listed here for 40 Hong Kong dollars. If you need it, we can help you contact the owner."

Bai Zirui said: "Let's check the situation of the two dealers before making a decision. Is it convenient now?"

The manager nodded hurriedly and said, "It's convenient...It's convenient, sir, please come with me."

The manager then led the three of them to the mall downstairs, during which Bai Zirui introduced himself.After Bai Zirui took a closer look at the two shops, he was not satisfied with the [-]-square-meter shop. The kitchen area was too large and inappropriate, but he was very satisfied with the [-]-square-meter shop. It would be much more convenient to renovate a tea restaurant.

The four returned to the manager's office again, and the manager asked, "Bai Sheng, are you satisfied with that 2000-square-foot shop?"

Bai Zirui replied: "I'm quite satisfied, but the price is still a bit high. I'll leave a phone number. How about we talk about it in detail when we have an appointment with the owner?"

The manager was overjoyed when he heard Bai Zirui's words. If this deal is concluded, they can also get a lot of commission. He smiled and said, "Yes, then I will make an appointment with the owner, and I will call Bai Sheng. Let's talk about it in detail."

Bai Zirui nodded and said, "Okay, see you later, manager." The manager sent them out of the mall very respectfully.

When the three of them left the shopping mall, He Yuzhu said with a shocked face: "Zi Rui, this shop is too expensive! A place of only 200 square meters costs 40 Hong Kong dollars, and the few sets of yards you bought in the capital didn't cost much. what!"

Yang Xue replied: "Brother, housing prices in Xiangjiang are so expensive. One shop is prosperous for three generations. If the annual salary of ordinary people is less than 400, that shop will be their salary for [-] years."

Bai Zirui knew from later generations that the housing prices in Xiangjiang have always been sky-high. Of course, the bustling area of ​​Causeway Bay cannot compare.

Yang Xue asked: "Zi Rui, do we have to go to other places to see?"

Bai Zirui replied: "Causeway Bay is the busiest shopping mall and the traffic center with the largest traffic. It's not bad to open the first Western-style fast food restaurant here. And the first McDonald's restaurant is not far away in Baide Xinjie Hang Lung Center, we can just be a neighbor with him."

The three of them walked around the mall again to buy some daily necessities, and Yang Xue drove them back to their place of residence.Both Lou Xiaoe and Xu Jingli came back, and Lou Xiaoe asked: "Zi Rui, how did you go to see the store with Ms. Yang today? I have already told my decoration company, and I can decorate your and Shazhu's fast food restaurant at any time. "

After hearing her words, Bai Zirui was full of sadness. He would be in tears if he said it was too difficult to open a restaurant. The recipes had to be optimized and improved, the equipment and equipment had to be customized, and there were a lot of troublesome things like training after recruitment.

Bai Zirui replied: "Sister-in-law, my eldest brother and Miss Yang went to a shopping mall in Times Square in Causeway Bay to look at the store. I am quite satisfied. The next step is to contact the owner to purchase the store, and then prepare to register the company."

Lou Xiaoe said: "If you need funds and don't have enough money, tell me, what's the name of the fast food restaurant, have you figured it out?"

Bai Zirui pondered, what's the name of the fast food restaurant? The logo must be conspicuous, and the head portrait of an old man must be used to directly imitate Kaifeng cuisine, which seems to be infringing.

After thinking for a while, he said: "The name of the fast food restaurant is Pfister. Pfister is the younger sister of the ancient Greek goddess, symbolizing nobility, elegance, holiness and kindness. She is the incarnation of a good woman who loves food all her life.

It is also transliterated from the English word "Feast". The original meaning of the English word is feast, banquet, and also refers to things that make people happy. It is used as a verb to express enjoyment of food.The name "Pfister" of a Western-style fast food restaurant is not only foreign and pleasant, but also reflects the characteristics of the Western-style fast food restaurant, and also reflects the delicacy and delicacy of the food from the side. "

When Xu Jingli heard Bai Zirui's words, she nodded in praise and said, "This name sounds nice." Lou Xiaoe and He Yuzhu also nodded in praise.
