Chapter 51 Special Customers
The woman carried a few breakfast items and returned to the roast duck restaurant on the left side of the market.

The name of the sign hanging on the door of this roast duck restaurant is - Lao Hu Roast Duck.

In the store, behind the counter, a thin man with sunken cheeks, about forty years old, was sitting there smoking.

There is also a glass room outside their counter.

When the woman walked into the glass room with her breakfast, the man who was smoking glanced at it, exhaled a puff of smoke, and asked casually: "Is that new store really opening today?"

The woman put the breakfast in his hand and hummed.

The man looked at her sideways, "What did you find out?"

The woman frowned and said: "The red paper posted says that roast duck is 15 yuan per pound, and everything else is 8% off. Should we also lower the price? Otherwise, we may not be able to sell our goods these days!"

"15? Losing money and making a profit?"

The man also frowned.

Woman: "Yes! A killed duck costs only four or five yuan per catty. Apart from the internal organs, only two or three catties of duck are left when it is made into roast duck. In addition, you can add oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, spices and Expenses such as gas cost 15 yuan per pound, so it’s easy to lose money!”

The man frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled contemptuously, shook his head and said: "Then we won't follow suit and lower the price! I guess his price is just a few days of activities after the new store opens. If he has the guts to keep selling it at this price, it won't kill him!"

The woman rolled her eyes and suddenly said: "Hey, if you put it like that, then I think the price of that new store will not last long, because I heard that the owner of the new store is from a rural area, and he used to sell roast duck in the countryside. , his family background must be limited, so even if he wants to start a price war with us, he will definitely not be able to do so for a few days! What do you think?"

"Is your hometown from a rural area?"

The man was a little surprised.

The woman nodded with a smile.

The man laughed, took a puff of his cigarette, exhaled the smoke, and said casually: "It turns out he is a country bumpkin! Then we are still afraid of a bird? Okay! Liang Ping, let's see how long he can sell it at this price. If you want to follow Let's start a price war, right? Hey, when he can't bear the price increase, we'll start to lower the price! He won't even be able to sell his goods! Let's see how many months he can last! Huh, even a country bumpkin can't stand it! If you dare to start a price war with us, I will see how he dies!"

Liang Ping laughed, reached for a fried dumpling, took a bite, and said casually: "If we can open this new store, we can open up the Lao Tan Roast Duck restaurant in the west, and our business will be easy to do!"

Hearing this, the man snorted coldly, "Stop dreaming! There are people in Lao Tan's family who are not easy to mess with, but this time, we can definitely deal with this country bumpkin!"

……

almost time.

A young man in his twenties quickly walked into Lao Tan's roast duck restaurant on the west side, came to the kitchen behind the store, and shouted to Lao Tan who was braised vegetables, "Dad! The new roast duck restaurant that was recently renovated opened today. , the advertisement is that roast duck costs 15 yuan per pound, should our family follow suit and lower the price?"

Lao Tan is a middle-aged man with short stature.

Wearing big pants, a white vest, and a floral towel draped over his shoulders.

Hearing this, he turned to look at his son, shook his head and smiled: "They are opening a new store and doing activities at low prices. Why should we join in the fun? Besides, ours is an old store with regular customers. Are you still afraid of this? Can the taste of the new store be better than ours? Ignore him! In a few days, they will definitely raise the price! What are you selling for 15 yuan per catty? You will definitely lose money!"

Xiaonian breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That's good! Then we won't lower the price!"

……

Yinlin Vegetable Market Management Department.

Director Mao Jingfeng was sitting behind his desk, looking down at a document.

He is a retired cadre who has retired from the army. He is approaching old age and was assigned to this vegetable market. He is already over 50 this year.

There was a sound of footsteps coming to the door and a knock on the door.

"Morning, Director!"

The person knocking on the door was a strong woman.

She knocked on the door, greeted her warmly, and strode over to refill Mao Jingfeng's tea cup. Mao Jingfeng was used to her style, so he didn't get angry.

He didn't even look up at her.

I just asked casually: "Nothing happened at the vegetable market today, right? Is there any stall that doesn't follow the rules?"

The woman chuckled lightly, "I haven't found anyone unruly yet. Director, when will you go on inspection today? Can I come with you?"

Mao Jingfeng turned over a page of documents and said, "I may go on inspection at any time. It's impossible for me to tell you the specific time. Only if everyone doesn't know when I will go on inspection will the stall owners below always abide by the rules."

After a pause, he asked casually: "By the way, are there any new stores opening in front of the vegetable market today?"

The woman nodded, "Oh, there is one! It's the smallest store that was recently renovated, selling roast duck! When I just went out to buy breakfast, I saw that the new store was stocking up." Mao Jingfeng heard this and looked up at her , smiled, closed the document in front of him, got up and walked to the door.

"There's a new store opening, so I have to go and check it out! See if there's anything unruly in that new store."

When the woman saw it, she quickly caught up and said with a smile: "Director, I'll go with you!"

Mao Jingfeng waved his hand, "No! You go and do your work. You are wearing a uniform. As soon as you go there, people will know that you are from the marketing management department. I can just go by myself!"

……

After a few minutes.

Mao Jingfeng walked alone to the door of Yang Ji Roast Duck Restaurant with his hands behind his back.

He first looked up at the sign at the door, then looked inside the store a few times, and saw a young man and seven women gathered in the glass room. The small glass room was almost full of people, and he couldn't help but look puzzled. , his brows also wrinkled.

A question emerged in his mind - is this selling roast duck?Or selling women?

He saw the red poster on the glass wall.

The poster said that roast duck costs 15 yuan per pound, which surprised him a little.

Because of the two original roast duck restaurants in their wet market, one sells it for 20 yuan per catty, and the other, the more delicious Lao Tan roast duck, sells it for 22 yuan per catty.

In comparison, the price of 15 yuan per pound in this new store is a bit exaggerated.

Mao Jingfeng paused and walked to the store with a smile. In the glass room, Yang Xingyu saw this and quickly opened the small window on the glass room and asked enthusiastically: "Hello! What do you want? Our new store is opening today. We have everything. Special offer, roast duck is only 15 per pound, do you want some?"

Mao Jingfeng looked at Yang Xingyu, smiled and asked, "Why are there so many people in your store? Can a small roast duck restaurant support so many of your employees?"

Yang Xingyu laughed and glanced at Fang Jiahui and others, "Oh, they are employees of my other branches. They are here today to learn how to sell various dishes. Look at my roast ducks, they are all freshly baked. The skin is still crispy, do you want to try some? The price is really good today."

Mao Jingfeng looked at the roast ducks in the glass room. They were indeed beautiful. The shiny red duck skin did look like crispy skin.

He nodded, "Okay! Then give me half of it to taste!"

"Okay! Wait a moment! Look at the other ones. If you want anything, tell me!"

Yang Xingyu greeted him warmly, picked up a kitchen knife, brought a roast duck, and started working.

Mao Jingfeng noticed that Yang Xingyu's knife skills were clean and neat, and he didn't look like a novice who had just opened a new store.

Then, he looked at other places in the store calmly.

He saw health licenses, catering licenses and other certificates hanging on the wall.

He also noticed that Yang Xingyu was wearing a disposable glove on his left hand and an apron around his waist. The color of every dish on the counter was quite beautiful. Looking at it, he couldn't help but swallowed because he saw it. My favorite - braised pork head.

Moreover, the color of the braised pork head meat is bright red, and there are deep knife marks every one inch or so. Based on his many years of experience in eating pork head meat, this pork head meat should be very delicious.

By the way, when he was young and in the army, his favorite food was braised pork head meat in the canteen. Pork head meat was always his favorite to go with wine.

In fact, the other two roast duck restaurants in this market also had pig head meat, and he had tasted both of them. Only the one from Lao Tan Roast Duck Restaurant tasted good.

But the pork head meat in the glass house in front of me seemed to be more delicious than the pork head meat from Lao Tan's house.

"How do you sell this pig head meat? Give me a piece!"

Mao Jingfeng couldn't help but speak.

Yang Xingyu smiled and replied, "Oh, pig head meat, 25 per pound, just wait a moment! I'll get it for you right away."

Mao Jingfeng hummed and frowned slightly.

Because he vaguely remembered that the pork head meat from the other two roast duck restaurants in this market didn't seem to be that expensive, but he wasn't sure.

Just a vague impression.

He suspected that he might have remembered it wrongly.

Because the roast duck here is so much cheaper than the other two stores, it stands to reason that other things here should also be cheaper than the other two stores.
