Chapter 406: Independent Thinking Boss
Tan Zhuo looked at Xu Wen with burning eyes, hoping that Xu Wen could give her an answer.

Who knew Xu Wen frowned and said: "Can't you think for yourself? I'm just your consultant, not your reference answer. If you do whatever I say, then I might as well be the boss of this store. What else do I need you for?"

As soon as Xu Wen finished his words, the netizens in the live broadcast room went wild.

"Damn, Xu Gou is really tough. How dare he talk to the boss like that?"

"It's normal for Xu Gou to be tough. After all, his cooking skills are there. With his current understanding of food, even if he just goes to a random store to give some advice, the business of that store will definitely get better."

"No, I don't understand. Isn't that what a consultant does? Asking questions when the boss has them. Is there anything wrong with that?"

Netizens didn’t understand why Xu Wen did this. Zhao Xuan also frowned and gave Xu Wen a look, indicating that he should not go too far.

After all, Tan Zhuo is also her best friend, and Tan Zhuo has always been respectful to Xu Wen. It would be a bit too much if Xu Wen took advantage of her.

Seeing that the girls were all looking at him like that, Xu Wen had no choice but to explain: "It's useless for you to look at me like that. People have brains for thinking. You don't think that in today's society, bosses don't know anything and can make money just by paying money, right?"

Xu Wen looked at Tan Zhuo very seriously and said, "The catering industry is different from other industries. Other industries may require a higher level of professional knowledge, such as programming. If you don't understand and still want to give your opinions, it's like an amateur guiding an expert."

"But the threshold for the catering industry is quite low! As long as you have a tongue, you only need to taste it and with your experience you can easily judge whether it is delicious or not. Am I right?"

"In this situation, if you still can't learn to think for yourself, and your first reaction is to ask me for standard answers to everything, then what will you do if I lose contact with you one day? Will you still want to run this chain store?"

After all, Tan Zhuo is a top student and can understand things quickly.

She immediately understood what Xu Wen meant.

Xu Wen did not tell him not to ask him questions, but that he should think carefully before asking, come up with his own answer, and then ask Xu Wen with his answer.

Only in this way can I clearly know the differences between my ideas and Xu Wen's ideas, and where the differences lie.

In this way, every time you ask a question, you will make longer-term progress and be able to stand on your own in the near future.

Realizing this, Tan Zhuo's attitude immediately straightened out.

She said to Xu Wen: "I'm sorry Xu Wen, I didn't think about this before, so let me think about it myself first."

Sun Ya, who was sitting next to her, was very surprised to see that Tan Zhuo was not angry with Xu Wen.

"Hey, Xiao Zhuo, when did your temper become so good? You weren't angry when Xu Wen said that? I remember when you were abroad, someone said something to you, and you immediately fought back."

Tan Zhuo's pretty face turned red and she glanced at Xu Wen secretly.

"No way, when have I ever been so rude?"

Sun Ya said solemnly: "How come you didn't? You beat that man so hard that he was hospitalized and had five stitches on his head. You paid a large sum of money as compensation. Have you forgotten?" Tan Zhuo rolled his eyes at Sun Ya and said nothing.

Don’t you have any face to save?

After all, I am a girl, and I want to maintain the image of a lady in front of Xu Wen!
As a result, Sun Ya started by directly bringing up her past embarrassing moments, making it seem as if she was very unreasonable and barbaric in the past.

After Xu Wen said what he just said, netizens in the live broadcast room also started discussing it.

"So this is what Xu Gou thought. It sounds like what he did does make sense. After all, the boss can't be someone who knows nothing. That would be very tiring."

"There is such a boss in our store. He knows nothing but he wants to know everything. As a result, every time we go to him to report our work, everyone has to explain to him why they do what they do. The time spent on reporting alone is more than several hours a day. I can't even begin to describe how exhausted we are."

"In fact, the main reason Xu Gou did this was to cultivate Tan Zhuo's independent thinking ability. The business world is like a battlefield, and many things require the boss to make decisions and handle them immediately, rather than waiting for Tan Zhuo to find Xu Wen first and get Xu Wen's analysis and instructions before doing anything. This would ruin their chain store that has only been open for a short time."

"I can only say that Xu Gou has a long-term vision and has considered every aspect."

After a while, Tan Zhuo looked at Xu Wen again and asked, "Xu Wen, is this combination okay for you? I want to replace the side dishes with braised dishes, but the side dishes should be lightly braised, such as potatoes, lotus root slices, quail eggs, kelp, etc., which have a stronger aroma but a lighter taste."

Upon hearing what Tan Zhuo said, Xu Wen laughed.

"Tell me why you matched them like this, what were your thoughts specifically?"

Seeing that Xu Wen did not immediately deny her idea, Tan Zhuo thought for a while and said, "The reason why I matched it this way is mainly due to several considerations."

"First of all, as Xiaoxuan said, the set meal includes dry rice, and dry rice is definitely better with braised dishes. But this rice cannot be just salty, it needs a more complex flavor."

"Secondly, our chain store's braised dishes already have a relatively large series, and we can also promote them by offering side dishes like this. If someone eats the side dishes and thinks our lightly braised dishes are not bad, they will definitely order our lightly braised dishes."

"Third, we will cooperate with the drinks in our store. Don't we have pure fruit juice in our store? If some people want to drink water because of salty food, they can also buy juice in our store. When our juice is paired with a set meal, we can offer a discount, so as to make small profits but quick turnover."

As expected, Tan Zhuo has studied abroad, so there is absolutely no problem with her intelligence.

Xu Wen was very satisfied after hearing this.

"Yes, what you said makes sense, so I think there is no problem with your side dish combination."

"You can continue to promote it, but you need to calculate the profit carefully. Although it is a policy of small profits but quick turnover, the profit cannot be too small. After all, we are in the catering industry. If the profit of the catering industry is too small, there will be problems."

“Not only will your peers think you are being too aggressive, but once you set your price and find out that some costs have not been taken into account, you will definitely suffer losses. At that time, it will be unrealistic to change the price.”
