Starting from selling lunch boxes at the construction site

Chapter 324
Ever since she learned that the shop next door was leased out, Hu Meifeng paid close attention to the renovation progress of the shop next door.

I thought it would take at least ten days and a half months to complete the decoration, but I didn't expect that from the second day after I rented out, the store would change at a different speed every day.

On the first day, the workers entered the site and shoveled the old and decayed walls, dug out the broken and decayed old floor tiles, putty on the walls and smoothed them, and leveled the ground;
The next day, all the water and electricity lines were completed, the walls were painted white, and the floor was laid with new tiles;
On the third day, I rested for a whole day without any movement;
On the fourth day, a large truck came with various sheet metal materials inside. Several workers took these materials and installed them in one click, and the construction of a delicate and conspicuous door was completed;
On the fifth day, two large trucks arrived. Refrigerated display cabinets, freezers, cash registers and other equipment were properly arranged. The entire store had a brand new look, and the store opened only for the products and the shop assistants;

At seven o'clock in the morning of the sixth day, when Hu Meifeng came to open the shop as usual, she saw that the signboard of the shop next door had been covered with a red cloth tied with bows, and there were rows of dazzlingly red opening flower baskets in front of the shop door. , there are two young men wearing aprons printed with the words 'Xu's Lo-mei' in the shop.

Following the busy work of the two young people inside and out, pots of lo mei with attractive color and fragrance were placed on the empty refrigerated display cabinet.

"It's less than a week since I rented this store. The construction and opening have been completed so quickly! It's really fast!" Hu Meifeng murmured and took out the key to open her store and started business.

Amidst the busyness of the crowd, the time passed by every minute and every second, and soon it was nine o'clock, the time for the opening ceremony to start.

For five or six days in a row, I could see strange faces and large trucks coming in and out every day. In addition to the overwhelming leaflets, the residents of the town basically knew that there was a shop here that was being renovated, and it was a food vendor. On the opening day of the store, not only will there be opening discounts, but there will also be a quiz with prizes.

Therefore, at 08:30, the two lion teams got out of the car, and the surrounding residents gathered around, and after a while, the lo mei shop was completely surrounded.

The two lion teams were tossing and turning, laughing and cursing, or playing mischievously. Each set of actions could attract bursts of applause from the onlookers.

The enthusiastic atmosphere reached its climax after one of the lions jumped up and bit off the lottery head hanging under the door, and the cheers were like thunder.

Seeing more and more people watching and the atmosphere on the field getting more and more enthusiastic, the host picked up the microphone and walked to the door of the store, and began to host the opening ceremony.

". This Xu's Lo-Mei shop is our local enterprise. The first store opened at the end of August this year. It has been less than two months. Today, Xu's Lo-Mei will open three branches in Haishi at the same time."

".Xu's Lo-Mei Shop has conquered most of the consumers with its low price, good quality and superior taste."

"Okay, this is the end of the introduction. Next, we will enter the second part of the opening ceremony. The questions I will ask in the quiz with prizes are not difficult, and all of them can be answered in the introduction just now."

".Since it is a contest with prizes, there must be rewards. Have you seen the stack of red envelopes in my hand? There are ten yuan, 20 yuan, 50 yuan, and even 100 yuan."

"Okay, now let's ask the first question, where is Xu's Braised Food located?"

Before the host's voice fell, the word "sea market" sounded one after another on the field. The overlapping voices sounded like a large singing group performing multiple ensembles.

"A lot of people know the answer. Let me pick one at random. Yes, this big brother, yes, it is you. Your voice is the loudest in the audience. You pick one of these three red envelopes, the one on the left, okay, here’s the red envelope.”

The burly brother stretched out his long arm and took the red envelope from the host's hand. He pinched both sides of the red envelope with his thumb and index finger and exerted a little force. The seal of the red envelope opened due to stress, and a large pink banknote was revealed to the eyes of the surrounding crowd.
"100 yuan! There is 100 yuan in the red envelope!" A person next to the burly brother screamed.

This shout set off a new wave of voices. Stimulated by the [-]-yuan red envelope, the participation of the onlookers became higher and higher.
Coupons will be distributed in the quiz with prizes and in the tasting session. Opening discounts will be announced.
One link after another was carried out in an orderly manner, and more than an hour passed without knowing it, and it was ten o'clock, the auspicious time for today's opening.

"The auspicious time has come, and now I announce that the Yuanshan Town Branch of Xu's Lo-Mei is open!"

Accompanied by the high-pitched and loud voice of the host, the two clerks who had been waiting on both sides of the store tore off the ropes in their hands, the red cloth floated down, and the golden word [Xu] was revealed in front of everyone's eyes. Well done!
After the excitement ended, the onlookers began to leave in twos and threes, but there were also many people who walked to the counter holding the coupons they just got.

"Vegetarian dishes cost five yuan a catty, so pick some for me and ask for two catties"

"My coupon is a [-]% discount on all meat dishes. Which meat dish is the most expensive in your shop? Beef tendon, right? Give me a catty."

"Give me half a catty of this, this, that, and that."

"."

Hu Meifeng, the owner of the shop next door, has long wanted to taste the taste of this stewed vegetables. After getting a [-]% discount coupon for the whole shop, she squeezed into the crowd without hesitation. When she came out again, she was holding a big bag full of it. of lo mei.

Back in her shop, Hu Meifeng couldn't wait to put on her gloves, and tasted them one by one.

The shiitake mushrooms are thick and juicy, the wakame is refreshing and delicious, the potatoes are soft and glutinous, the braised meat is fragrant but not greasy, fat but not oily, it melts in the mouth and leaves a fragrance on the lips and teeth.
Originally, I only planned to taste the taste, but I couldn't stop eating one bite after another. By the time Hu Meifeng realized it, one-third of the three catties of stewed vegetables had disappeared
"It tastes really good."

Forcibly suppressing the idea of ​​wanting to have a good meal in one sitting, Hu Meifeng reluctantly put the remaining lo mei in the store refrigerator
But the alluring fragrance kept coming from the shop next door, lingering under the tip of her nose, stirring up her eager heart.
Eventually in the 'I'll just eat another piece' thought, the fridge door opened and closed over and over again.
The next day, the store run by Hu Meifeng was not open for business, and a notice of "closed for one day" was pasted on the door of the store. Today, she was going to attend the full moon banquet of relatives' children.

This time the banquet was not held in the hotel in the town. Relatives specially invited the master of the banquet from the countryside to come to the door, and the banquet was held in the village.

Hu Meifeng looked at the location of the village from a distance, and the first thing she saw was not the outline of the village, but the two straight columns of smoke.

Two stoves were built with loess on the open space by the river. The firewood in the stoves was buzzing, the iron pot on the stoves was burning red, and the ingredients were flying up and down between the two huge spatulas. It floated out of the pot and spread over the entire village.

"We start at four o'clock, and it's already 03:30 in the afternoon, and there's still half an hour left. Are the dishes ready?"

"It's almost there, the cold dish is ready, and it will be served as soon as four o'clock arrives!"

"Okay, can the freshly fried big dishes be served at 04:30?"

"Yes, no problem, just rest assured!"

After confirming that the banquet could start on time, the host nodded in satisfaction and turned to leave.

But at some point there was a temporary rubber water pipe on the ground, and when the right foot was raised and fell, it stepped directly on the moving water pipe.
what----

Amidst the screams of everyone, the host put one hand on the square table piled with cold dishes, and barely stabilized his figure. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the sound of "pingping, bang bang" was heard incessantly
Leaning on the square table, the owner is still in shock. Looking at the master who is dumbfounded by the rubber water pipe in his hand, he looks at the melon-eating people here with a dazed expression.
"Hey, pull him up quickly! Check to see if he's injured! No, it's fine if he's a good person!"

"Susui is safe, Sui Sui is safe, a good sign, everything is fine!"

"Bring a few iron buckets and a few pairs of gloves, and two brooms and shovels."

"."

Fortunately, no one was injured in this accident, but unfortunately, the cold dishes just prepared by the masters of the flowing water table were completely destroyed
"It's okay, it's okay, there are a lot of big dishes here, just serve the big dishes earlier and start the table directly!"

"There are also melon seeds for drinks, let's eat melon seeds and chat!"

"."

Looking at the scene in front of her, Hu Meifeng suddenly heard what the landlord of the shop next door said--the relative's house held a dinner party and bought some stewed vegetables to serve as cold dishes
Hu Meifeng was thinking about this matter here, and said it out without a word: "Isn't there a new stewed vegetable shop in the town, so I should rush over to buy some and put it on the plate in time."

After finishing speaking, Hu Meifeng realized that her words had put the master's family on the fire.

If I didn’t have my own words, the master would just walk down the steps given by others and then come down; but now that my own words are out, it would be a bit ugly if the master still wants to pretend that this has never happened
"Haha. I'm just careless. The town is so far away, half an hour is not enough to get back and forth. Haha, my mouth is really bad." Hu Meifeng said and gently gave her mouth a few times to cover up her embarrassment.

Just when Hu Meifeng was trying her best to restore the out-of-control scene, a few people in the crowd who watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal took up her words.

"The town is not far away, 10 minutes' drive, 10 minutes back and forth is enough!"

“The braised vegetables in that shop taste really good, and they are also suitable for cold dishes.”

“The price is not expensive”

"."

In the midst of everyone's words, the owner's family had no way out, so he could only bite the bullet and call a few young men to go to the braised meat shop in the town to have a look.

These young men were also honest, and they drove fast along the way. In less than 10 minutes, the three motorcycles stopped neatly in front of Xu's Lo-Mei shop.

"Boss, potatoes, mushrooms, lotus root and edamame weigh fifteen catties. Is the meat beef thirty catties?"

"Boss, please be quick. Our banquet is going to start at four o'clock. Hurry up. You've worked hard! You've worked hard!"

The guests who were squeezed away by the three young men originally wanted to reprimand them a few words, but when they heard the word 'ready to start', the words that came out of their mouths changed from swear words to inquiries: "What's the matter, why is the meeting about to start?" Come here, shouldn't this be prepared earlier?"

"Hey, I originally invited the master to come to the door, and the cold dishes were all prepared, but there were so many people and one of them accidentally dropped them all. Didn't I come to make up for it in a hurry?"

Seeing that the others had no objections, the two clerks frantically packed the stewed vegetables requested by the three young men. In less than 5 minutes, the stewed vegetables were packed and handed over to the three.

After thanking each other repeatedly, the three of them put two small red envelopes on the counter, and one of them got on a motorcycle and left with a large bag of braised food.

It took 25 minutes to bring the stewed cabbage back to the village, and delivered it to the aunts who were in charge of arranging the dishes. After setting up a plate of stewed cabbage here, put another dish on the other side. At ten minutes, all the cold dishes were served.

I don't know if it's for the host's face, or if everyone really thinks the taste of these braised vegetables is good, there are a lot of praises in the banquet hall, and the atmosphere is very happy, as if the incident just now has never happened.

After the banquet was over, many people took the scene at the banquet as a topic of conversation, spreading the word to ten, ten to hundreds, and many people in Yuanshan Town knew that there was a braised meat shop in the town, and a person held a banquet. Chazi, I bought some stewed vegetables from this braised meat shop and went back to save the scene. It tastes good and the price is cheap and saves trouble
The conference room of Xu's Catering Headquarters, at ten o'clock on Tuesday morning.

"The cooperation plan and posters we proposed here have passed the review of the live broadcast platform and Taobao. These three posters will be used on Taobao's launch page. This group of posters will be used on the homepage and banner of the live broadcast shopping section. This The group is a promotional poster for our Taobao store. This is used for Dayan’s blog posts, WeChat public account tweets, and video promotions on Station B.”

As soon as Tang Wen finished speaking, Gu Jiayi immediately picked up.

".I will cooperate with the Taobao platform to launch the new decoration of the Taobao store at midnight tonight. All product pictures have been modified according to the poster on the Taobao launch page."

After Gu Jiayi finished speaking, Lu Shengnan followed, and everyone in the conference room looked at Lu Shengnan in unison.

".The three-day opening promotion officially ended at 390 o'clock last night. The average daily sales volume of Xu's Braised Meat in Huiyuan Shopping Center was [-] catties, in line with expectations. The average daily sales volume of Xu's Braised Foods in Hongxing Town was [-] catties, which was qualified. Xu's Braised Foods The average daily sales volume of the branch in Yuanshan Town is [-] catties, which is [-] catties more than the estimated sales volume.”

After Lu Shengnan finished speaking, he lightly tapped the keyboard with his finger, the screen on the projector switched, and the voice continued to report with a somewhat erratic voice.

"In the order data of the Yuanshan Town branch, there are four orders with a single purchase amount of more than 1000 yuan. At the beginning, I thought it was caused by a clerk's misoperation, but after calling to inquire, I found that these four orders were all real. and normal operation of the order.”

"These orders are" Xu An accepted Lu Shengnan's words quite cooperatively, waiting for her to reveal the final answer.

"These orders are for the people of Yuanshan Town to purchase a large amount of stewed vegetables at one time and go back. The reason for using the current dishes at the banquet is that they are cheap, delicious, and convenient."

"An appetizer for the banquet?"

Others in the conference room repeated the key word in unison. After receiving Lu Shengnan's affirmative nod, weird expressions appeared on everyone's faces at the same time, and the corners of Xu An's mouth even twitched uncontrollably twice.

How do you feel that the painting style of Xu's catering is getting more and more biased?

Like Xu’s Fast Food, at the very beginning, they set up a stall to sell boxed lunches. They planned to open a fast food restaurant to make a living, but they developed into group meals for no reason.
The second is Xu’s Lo-Mei, which sells authentic Lo-Mei. For no reason, it has reached a cooperation with the Disabled Person’s Federation. I thought this was the limit. I never thought that when the branch in this town opened, Xu’s Lo-Mei would turn around. Has it become an appetizer for a country feast?
But whether it is a white cat or a black cat, the cat that can catch mice is a good cat!
Anyway, no matter what the original purpose is, isn't the ultimate goal to sell the product?
Now, the people of Yuanshan Town seem to have provided Xu's lo-mei with a completely new path that has never been considered, but is very feasible!
Not to mention 2012, even in 2030, the rural water seats have not disappeared, but because of the high cost performance, they are sought after by young people in the new era
Xu An's eyes swept over everyone in the meeting, and finally two figures who were not sitting in the meeting room appeared in Xu An's mind—Liu Tong and Liu Zhaowen!

Finding out and communicating with Haishi to take over the matter of the master of Liushuixi or the team, it is perfect to leave it to the two of them!
