Participated in a love variety show and was forced to debut and rise! /You are a variety artist

"Oh, you don't understand. The head office is out of reach for a little store manager like you... Anyway, just remember that I am a representative sent by the head office. I have a distinguished status. You should have a better attitude. !”

"Childish, you can play with yourself."

Li Yichen ignored Wang Gaoming and turned to look at Chen Sihua and Ye Linsen who couldn't help laughing.

"Ahem... you have heard it, right? I am the manager of Li Restaurant. However, I have no desire for power. Although you are my subordinates and employees, I don't want you to be afraid of me because of my identity. , I hope we can maintain a horizontal relationship, not a vertical relationship, understand?"

"Oh well."

Chen Sihua and the others smiled and nodded, trying hard to digest this sudden setting.

They quickly calculated in their minds, according to this class system, where they would rank in Li's restaurant.

First of all, the person with the highest status must be the representative of the mysterious head office, Wang Gaoming, Representative Wang.

Next is the manager of Li Restaurant, Li Yichen, manager Li.

Wu Xiayong felt that he could rank third because he was Li Yichen's assistant cook and the person closest to Li Yichen.

Chen Sihua and Ye Linsen both felt that they could rank third because they were both in charge of the lobby, so they could barely be considered lobby managers.

Therefore, the result is self-evident. Peng Cheng, who volunteered to become a dishwasher, is undoubtedly at the bottom of this class system and has a slave-like existence.

Thinking about it this way, this setting was immediately accepted by most people.

Only Peng Cheng began to regret his outspoken words at the beginning, but it was too late.

The group chatted happily and arrived at the staff dormitory by car.

The staff dormitory is quite satisfactory, with three bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms, but it is clean and tidy and has all the furniture, kitchen utensils, etc.

After visiting the staff dormitory, everyone was preparing to guess the ownership of the master bedroom. Wang Gaoming directly told everyone that they could not sleep in the master bedroom. It was reserved for guests who might come in the future. In other words, Li Yichen and the five of them could only sleep in the master bedroom. Can be divided into two rooms.

All of a sudden, the five of them lost their desire to play guessing games, and they all assigned rooms with humility to each other.

Li Yichen, Wu Xiayong and Peng Cheng share a room.

Chen Sihua and Ye Linsen share a room.

It happened to be divided into a kitchen group and a lobby group.

"Shall we eat first? Or?"

After assigning rooms, Wu Xiayong asked. It was almost dark outside.

"Order takeout..."

Li Yichen suggested that he had just checked the refrigerator in the kitchen, and there was nothing in it. It would be too time-consuming to go out to buy ingredients and cook them himself.

"Representative Wang, are our meal expenses covered by the production fee?"

"It is today, but starting from tomorrow, all your expenses will be included in the operating costs of Li's Restaurant."

"What about our start-up capital? What should we do if we don't have money to buy food at the vegetable market tomorrow?"

"As for the start-up capital... the head office can lend you five thousand first, but after five weeks, you have to pay back forty thousand to the head office."

"forty thousand?!"

Li Yichen was shocked.

"Borrow [-] and pay back [-]! Representative Wang, you will be put in jail!"

Wang Gaoming felt that Li Yichen was really not easy to fool, so he could only explain: "The [-] yuan includes principal, interest, rent, water, electricity, coal, etc..."

"It's closed. This restaurant is closed..."

Li Yichen knew that there was no point in arguing with Wang Gaoming, so he stood up directly and prepared to leave. He also winked at Chen Sihua and others, signaling them to hold him back.

It's just that Chen Sihua and the four of them are just like a blank sheet of paper. I have never seen the leader of a program quarreling with the director. They were so scared that they dared not speak.

Li Yichen had no choice but to deliberately walk in the direction where the photographer blocked the road, creating the illusion that he wanted to walk but failed.

"Then how much do you think is appropriate?"

Wang Gaoming smiled.

"Ten thousand..."

"Impossible, it's too little. Let's do this. You don't have to pay back the starting fee. It's thirty-five thousand."

Chapter 247 Trial Operation

The numbers Wang Gaoming mentioned were not just words, but were calculated by calculating the approximate cost of the ingredients.

All the restaurants use fresh, medium-to-high-quality ingredients. Based on a gross profit margin of 60%, making [-] yuan in fifteen days is not a problem at all.

A portion of fried chicken is 90 yuan, each of the three set meals is 60 yuan, a cup of soda is 10 yuan, and a cup of coffee is 20 yuan... Based on the per capita consumption of 70 yuan, in fact, as long as Li Yichen and the others can receive an average of 56 customers a day, they can achieve this goal. .

Is it difficult to serve 56 customers?

Not difficult at all.

Just have a hand.

After fifteen days, [-] yuan was returned to the program team, and Li Yichen and the others still had [-] yuan left.

So Wang Gaoming killed thirty-five thousand people without giving in at all.

He doesn't necessarily want Li's Restaurant to make a profit, but he just wants to use this rule to give Li Yichen and others a sense of urgency and pressure, making the show more interesting.

"Well, it's still thirty-five thousand, but whatever you can earn in the end will be donated to charity in your name."

"Really?"

Li Yichen was a little moved. If they did this, their hard work would become more meaningful and many people could benefit.

"Let's do this. Whatever we can earn in the end, the program team will double it and donate it to charity in the name of the five of us."

"make a deal!"

So after more than half an hour of back-and-forth, Li Yichen and Wang Gaoming finally negotiated successfully and reached a consensus.

Li's restaurant has two business hours, five hours a day.

Three hours at noon, from [-] to [-] o'clock, and two hours in the evening, from [-] to [-] o'clock.

Li Yichen and Chen Sihua were eating takeout while roughly calculating the cost.

If they prepare fried chicken for 100 people a day, after fifteen days, they will return [-] yuan to the program team, and still have a surplus of [-] yuan. Plus double the extra donation from the program team, it can almost be given to impoverished mountainous areas. The children donated two loving libraries.

"Although there is an element of gambling in this, I think we can do it!"

"work hard together!"

……

In a blink of an eye, April [-]nd arrived, the day before Li’s restaurant officially opened.

I recall that April [-]nd last year was the first day Li Yichen walked into the love house. At that time, he thought it was just an ordinary chore.

Who would have thought that today, one year later, he would be preparing for the opening of the restaurant tomorrow, and would be upgraded from a busboy to a chef and store manager.

So much happens in one year.

Chapter 240.

"Can we do it well?"

Li Yichen was a little worried.

Although he and Chen Sihua made a lot of preparations together, when the day of opening the restaurant was approaching, they always felt as if they were not ready for anything.

The last time Li Yichen felt like this was the night before the college entrance examination.

Because it takes it too seriously.

"Can we do it well?"

"I always feel unsure."

"Me too, my heart is beating fast."

Ye Linsen and Wu Xiayong also expressed the same concerns as Li Yichen.

"If your heart doesn't beat, you're in trouble."

Li Yichen joked that he is the store manager, and at times like this, he should play a role in boosting morale.

"Don't worry, we have prepared so much, we can definitely do it well!"

In order to ease their worries, Li Yichen and the others discussed it and planned to go to the restaurant for a trial opening and make dinner on the way.

As soon as they left, the five of them carried a box of ingredients and walked along the coastline to the restaurant.

The sea, where the red clouds had not completely faded away, was reflected in a bright red.

At the pier not far away, the last ship bound for Fuhua Island was slowly leaving.

Li Yichen suddenly remembered that when he first landed on Fuhua Island, the old village head of Fuhua Village hoped that after the broadcast of "The House on the Island", he could bring tourists to Fuhua Island so that their children who had left home could return home. Work and live on the island.

Now that "Island House" is so popular, there must be more tourists, but their children, who are used to the prosperity of the metropolis, may not go back.

Only Wang Gaoming's program team always looks for secluded villages as recording locations for variety shows.

This is the first time for Li Yichen and the others to come to the renovated restaurant. The overall decoration is very atmospheric, unique and full of details.

But perhaps for the best shooting effect, the restaurant's kitchen is extremely large, with all kinds of tableware and kitchen utensils available, but there are very few tables and chairs in the dining area. There are only six tables indoors and two tables outdoors. The average number of guests per person The usable area is more than one meter, and the usability of this level of space has even reached the level of high-end executive reception.

However, if eight tables are full and the tables are turned four times, we can receive about a hundred customers a day.

"bang bang bang"

"Boss, order!"

In the lobby, Wang Gaoming found a table closest to the kitchen and sat down, patting the table, eager to experience what it was like to be a god.

"Hello, this is our restaurant menu."

Chen Sihua, who was in charge of reception in the lobby, slowly got used to the melodrama that Wang Gaoming and Li Yichen put on from time to time. She hurriedly found the menu on the bar and handed one to Wang Gaoming.

Wang Gaoming didn't even look at it. He threw the menu on the table and shouted, "Get one!"

"Hahaha……"

The crowd burst into laughter.
