At this time, a man wearing a gold vest and white shirt, a bartender's outfit, replaced the black vest waiter originally ordered by Axia, brought the wine and side dishes, and smiled and said "Hong Kong Pu" to Ning.
Weimin said hello.
"Ning Sheng, I recognized you as soon as you entered the door. Lei Hao..."
Ning Weimin took a closer look and discovered that he was also Mr. Hong's subordinate, an "old friend" he had met in the past.
It was Sheng Zai who was responsible for weighing the money with a scale when he followed Zeng Xianzi to go to Mr. Hong to exchange money in person.
In the future, he made many transactions with A-Xia in order to go abroad, and Shengzi also participated many times. He was considered the little boss in charge of security at the mainland bank.
He quickly stood up as well, showing respect with his actions and not being scornful because the other person was of a lower status than himself.
"A Sheng, it turns out you are here too. Oh, it's so rare. It's unexpected to see you in Tokyo. Come on, let's have a drink together."
This move gained Shengzi a great sense of closeness and made him smile happily.
However, Ning Weimin's behavior was abnormal in a club like this, and it also alarmed other guests.
Several customers in front thought something had happened and turned to look in their direction.
So both Shengzai and Axia quickly persuaded Ning Weimin to return to his seat, and Shengzai even actively declined the invitation.
"Ning Sheng, don't be polite. You are a distinguished guest today, so you should sit down and enjoy yourself. And I have to abide by the rules when I'm at work. Anyway, everyone is in Tokyo. If you don't mind, we can find a place to get together another day.
Let’s get together.”
"Okay, we agreed to find a time for everyone to have a drink together. No need to look for any other place, just go to my restaurant for dinner and I will entertain you."
Shengzi agreed with a smile and said nothing else. After putting away the things, he bowed and went down in a very orderly manner.
Ning Weimin had seen his arrogant and domineering image in the world, and he couldn't help but feel amazed at this moment.
He really didn't know how Axia or Mr. Hong trained his subordinates.
Even a person like Asheng, who is born to rely on hard work to get out of the way, is so flexible and flexible.
To actually be able to work as a bartender is quite an amazing thing.
"Ningsang, please raise a toast. Speaking of which, we are really destined. Just because of the few chance encounters in Tokyo, we should have a toast. But we have to agree that I will pay for all the expenses today. Even if I apologize
Yes. Please don’t remember the faults of villains.”
While she was talking, Axia had already mixed the whiskey with ice and water, and filled a glass for Ning Weimin herself.
Ning Weimin took a look and saw that what Axia treated him to was a twenty-one-gun royal salute, a pure British product.
At this time, the price of Japanese whiskey has not yet increased, nor has it gained international recognition.
The price of this kind of blended whiskey is much more expensive than the Yamazaki Twelve Years Old produced in Japan.
If you sell it in a place like this, it will cost you at least 300,000 yen a bottle.
The side dishes are also very rich, not the usual three, but six.
Not only are there the dried fruits that Chinese people like, but there are also fruit plates.
He was naturally very grateful and said, "No, you're too polite." Then he clinked glasses with A-Xia.
Then he joked again while sipping whiskey.
"Oh, I'm going to be treated with admiration after three days of separation. You, the mama-san of Ginza, are different. You even treat guests with a lot more lavishness. It seems that you are really happy with the spring breeze."
Little did I know that it would be okay if I didn't say this, but once I did, Axia took the initiative to complain.
After Ning Weimin heard this, he realized that Axia's current business situation was similar to that of his Tan Gong Restaurant, and she was also worried about the store's revenue.
Yes, it is true that the Ginza Club makes money like a money printing machine, but it must have enough guests.
Because Chixia Club is a new store, it has insufficient customer base and customer level. In fact, it is far from being as good as it seems on the surface.
According to Axia, when the store opened two months ago, some customers came to support it because they felt it was new, and they really made a lot of money.
On the best business day, the daily turnover here is close to 10 million.
But it stopped working after that, and the number of guests began to decline.
The current situation is that her store can only receive about three or four groups of customers every night who spend about 400,000 yen.
These are business owners.
There are also eight or nine tables, all with an average consumption of 100,000 yen.
These people include doctors and lawyers working nearby, as well as executives of large companies.
However, when it comes to holidays, the business will obviously slow down, after all, customers have to accompany their families.
When customers take a rest, the store is also resting, and there isn't much business.
Therefore, it is estimated that the store's sales this month can reach 60 million yen, which is good.
However, in terms of operating costs, the water and electricity bills alone cost 1.5 million yen per month, and the purchase of alcohol cost about 10 million yen.
The cost of side dishes and snacks to accompany wine accounts for 4% of the turnover, about 2.4 million yen.
In addition, ice cubes cost 600,000 yen, and 3 million yen per month for flower arrangements in the store may not be enough.
The above rough estimate is nearly 18 million yen.
But that's nothing. What troubles Axia the most is the personnel expenses in the store.
She has to pay 2.4 million yen every month to the eight brothers of the 14K who came with her.
This cannot be said to be salary, it can only be said to be living expenses.
These people were all loyal and came with her to protect her and Mr. Hong’s daughter. She couldn’t let these brothers live a hard life forever. She had to be looser and have some money to drink, smoke, go to the sauna, and sing karaoke.
Beat Brother Pachinko again.
Otherwise it would be unbearable.
The accountant girl in the store has a monthly salary of 250,000 yen. This girl once worked at a local post office in the countryside.
Those who choose to live in Tokyo are the "Eastern Drifters", who are the cheapest financial people you can find in Japanese society.
And the escort girls under Axia were hired by her brokers and hired from other clubs at high prices.
Therefore, the daily salary is relatively high. There are eleven people in total, and the average is 45,000 yen per person per day.
As long as they work 20 days a month, they have to pay 9.9 million yen per month. In addition to Axia's daily salary of 50,000 yen, the total is 1.9 million yen.
In total, the personnel expenses are as high as 13 million yen.
If you add in the share of the BOTTLE bonus given to the accompanying girls for opening the drinks, almost half of the remaining 30 million yen in sales will be deducted, and the gross profit will be barely 15 million yen.
And this is just gross profit. If you deduct invisible miscellaneous expenses, calculate the cost recovery, depreciation and continued consumption of decoration and supplies, the net profit will be much less, only 10 million yen.
That's it, it's still the case that Axia paid for the club's business property.
Otherwise, if you take into account the high rent in Ginza, the store may have started to suffer a loss, let alone not even half a profit.
Because of this, when talking about this, Axia couldn't help but thank Shangning Weimin.
"Ning Sang, thanks to you for giving me detailed guidance and introducing me to a real estate agency. Otherwise, I wouldn't have made up my mind to buy this place. To be honest, this club is
It was a good opportunity that I came across when I was working part-time at Dong Jiye. Originally, the owner of this store, Ma Sang, was old and had many chronic diseases, so she no longer wanted to worry about business. She also urgently needed funds to speculate in foreign exchange and apply for a mortgage loan.
They were all too slow. So I happened to have a lot of cash in hand, and I finally negotiated. Not only was the price right, it was only 5 million yen per square meter. The decoration of the store was also very new, and the layout was very good. There was no need for it at all.
The changes were too big. In addition, I also received a large commission from Dong Jiye, and then I resigned. Even though it was only such a short period of time, the house price has increased a lot, and I made at least 60 million yen.
.And I also used my house as a mortgage and took out a loan to buy some stocks. The market has been good recently, and my floating profit has been 30 million yen. Speaking of which, I still made a profit. This is not bad. In short, I can live like this
All my gains are because of listening to your advice."
"No, no, you are too modest. Although I said the words, you did the things."
Ning Weimin couldn't help laughing after hearing this. He never expected that Axia would have such luck and perform such an operation.
This is the legendary hustle and bustle, taking advantage of all the advantages.
I have to say, this woman is really shrewd.
And now that things have happened, he is no longer just happy for Axia's luck and intelligence, he is also happy for himself.
Why?
No need to ask!
Doesn't it count as good luck for him to meet Axia again?
How does he feel now that he and A-Xia need to cooperate? There is a possibility of perfect and complementary cooperation between them.
And the most important thing is that they have established a certain sense of trust between them, which is most conducive to the success of the cooperation.
If they could go hand in hand, it would be a match made in heaven.
As Ning Weimin expected, it was impossible for a shrewd person like Axia to refuse the cooperation between the two stores.
In fact, as soon as Axia heard this idea from Ning Weimin, she expressed full approval and support on the spot. It was a mixture of surprise and enthusiasm.
Although the commissions and bonuses provided by Ning Weimin ended up in the pockets of the accompanying girls, it seemed that Axia would not get any benefit from them.
But this is really not what they say. In fact, the benefits to Chixia Club cannot be underestimated, and Axia can see this very clearly.
Not to mention anything else, first of all, having extra money can calm people's hearts and make these female public relations people more willing to stay and work in Chixia.
Although the current female public relations staff of Chixia Club are mixed, their quality is not high.
But Axia tried her best to get these people. Without these escort girls, she would not be able to open her business.
So now is not the time for her to pick and choose. On the contrary, she has been worried that there are too few customers in the store, and even the existing escort girls will gradually lose their jobs and move to other places.
In this way, the opportunity provided by Ning Weimin can help her retain these people, which undoubtedly relieves her a lot of pressure.
Secondly, as a businessman, Ning Weimin's business ability has already impressed and convinced Axia.
In her mind, Ning Weimin must also have a wide range of contacts and know people at a high level.
If you think about it, you know that Ning Weimin will definitely introduce guests to Chixia if there is a chance.
These are things that are good to you and me, and are all things that go unspoken.
It would be foolish of her not to agree.
In this way, the two of them hit it off and joined forces.
In the following week, the effect of the cooperation was also quite obvious.
Whether it is Ginza Danguo or Akaka Club, business has improved greatly and both parties are very satisfied.
Because after all, Axia's club also has eleven escort girls.
If she is included, there are twelve people who can help attract customers.
More quantity is also an advantage.
Even the efficiency and quality of Axia's group in soliciting customers cannot catch up with Maria and her little sisters, the top of the candlestick.
But I can't stand these people who care more about this side job, like ants moving, they come and go more frequently.
People from the Chixia Club not only take guests here for dinner and late-night snacks, but sometimes they even make extra appointments at noon.
Especially on weekends, because customers with wives have no excuse to wander out during public holidays.
Dining with "companion" guests at Tan Gong Restaurant became the only hope for the escort girls to make money, so of course they tried their best.
In addition, Ginza Danmiya's craftsmanship also makes faces, and it can attract repeat customers.
Even the simplest meals such as porridge, noodles and snacks are enough to drive Japanese people crazy.
This has made many guests brought by the escort girls become loyal fans.
Not only did they not feel like they were being ripped off, but they were actually very grateful to the lady who brought them here.
Thanks to them for leading me to taste delicious authentic Chinese food.
Even later, some people would take the initiative to make an appointment with the lady who introduced them to eat here again because they were so obsessed with the food at Tan Palace.
It also virtually increases the income of these escort girls.
Then think about it, can business in Ginza still be booming?
Let's put it this way, because of the joining of Axia's group, even Maria, who had cooperated with Tan Gong earlier, felt the pressure of competition and became more serious about her part-time job at Tan Gong Restaurant.
Unconsciously, Maria added extra homework to herself and spent two hours a day calling her clients.
This is the result of one plus one being greater than two.
It was precisely this subconscious competition between the two factions that allowed Dangu to quickly recover to an average daily turnover of five million yen.
To say that Ginza Danmiya has been fully resurrected may be insufficient, but this level is enough to appease the anxiety and worries of domestic employees and turn a profit.
If all expenses are removed, approximately 20% of the turnover will be left as profit in the end.
In short, the situation improved beyond imagination, which made Ning Weimin breathe a sigh of relief, which was actually a bit satisfying.
The key is that he knows very well that this is a trend reversal.
As for a restaurant, the more prosperous it is, the more customers it will have.
If there are fewer and fewer people, old customers will gradually be lost.
So this is the most important thing.
As long as we continue to maintain this momentum and operate well, the day will come sooner or later when the Ginza Altar Palace will be full.
