Chapter 325 Food shortage
Today is December 20th. The hotel has been open on the 4th, and it has been more than half a month since it was now.
In the first few days, the turnover of each item remained at about 30,000 yuan. However, the money for selling turtles here accounted for almost one-third.
Due to the discount on hotel opening, selling a turtle in the hotel won’t make much money. But even so, the profit per day will exceed 10,000 yuan.
However, the people who come to eat, old customers and related households account for a large proportion. After those old customers came to eat once or twice, the second week, that is, the hotel business was much worse than the first week.
However, now, the business has almost stabilized, and the daily turnover is about 10,000 yuan.
Wu Li, who is in charge of the money and accounts in the hotel, will publish the operating income of the day in the WeChat groups of only Sanda, He Ying, Zhang Yibin, Wu Li, and Wu Fei every day.
This group was originally a place where several people used to communicate about things in the hotel, but now it has become a special group for Wu Li to publish business income. There are also dishes in the hotel that need to be delivered from the village, which are usually posted in the group.
After all, the gross profit of the hotel is about half of its operating income. As it continues to operate slowly, the profit will increase, but there will be no room for growth.
Unless the turtle provided by Wu Fei can significantly reduce the price, Wu Fei has no such plan for the time being.
Two days ago, Wu Fei simply cut off the supply of turtles in the restaurant. When Zhang Yibin brought the ingredients two days ago, all the turtles and river shrimps in the store were sold out. Sanda also said in the group that he asked Wu Fei to find a way to get some turtles on it.
These days, I have called the restaurant to order food every day, and many of them have to order the dish of turtles. Unfortunately, more than 20 turtles prepared for the opening have been sold out long ago. This is because Wu Fei told the waiter that he should not take the initiative to recommend turtles to customers unless the customer asks.
However, some old customers, or customers introduced by others, will be gone when they order turtles in the restaurant after they are sold out.
Some people heard that after there is no turtle, they can still accept dining in the hotel.
However, there are still many people who come to eat turtles. I heard that after the turtles are gone, they will not even have a meal.
For this matter, Sanda sent messages to Wu Fei a lot and asked Wu Fei to find a way to get a few turtles up.
However, when the business opened last time, Wu Fei said that it was impossible to provide too many turtles during this period. In fact, everyone knows this.
Most of the turtles in the house were caught when they were drying the reservoir. Later, when digging a few smaller fish ponds below, they dug out several hibernating turtles.
These turtles actually ran from the reservoir to the fish pond above to hibernate, and were dug out by Wu Fei.
In fact, Wu Fei can also take some turtles out of the farm. There are still a lot of them in the turtles, but Wu Fei dare not take them out easily now.
So when Sanda asked for turtles, Wu Fei refused in one sentence: "There are a few turtles at home now, but those turtles are kept for cooking when they are engaged. It is impossible to go to the market to buy those fed by others when they want to use them at home."
However, today Wu Fei brought a turtle worth more than two pounds. When he had lunch with Kang Liu and the others, the turtle was the main dish.
"Uncle Bang, Aunt Bang, you came here so early. What do you want to eat for breakfast? I'll make it for you?"
Seeing Wu Fei and the others come in, Sanda, who had just gotten up, said to Wu Fei and the others.
Wu Bang said to Sanda: "Sanda, we only get it after breakfast. Go and do your business, don't worry about us. I'll call you again if you have any."
Wu Fei brought some dishes and Sanda into the yard behind the kitchen. In addition to a turtle used to cook at noon today, Wu Fei also brought a few mandarin fish.
When I went to the fishing ground to buy mandarin fish fry last time, Wu Fei also bought dozens of large mandarin fish from the fishing ground to eat at his own home.
Some mandarin fish are kept in cages in fish ponds on the mountain, and some are kept in fish ponds on the farm.
Because of the low temperature, the mandarin fish kept in the cages rarely eat. Wu Fei specially bought the cheapest small fish of 10 or 20 kilograms and kept them in the cages with the mandarin fish. A few days ago, when Wu Fei pulled up the cages to look at them, he found that the small fish in the cages were almost as many as when he was put in.
However, the mandarin fish placed in the farm are different. There is not much time to put it in. When I fished it up this morning, I found that I had obviously grown a lot.
The mandarin fish sold on the market now usually ranges from one pound to two pounds, and the price is not cheap. Mandarin fish less than two pounds will be sold for 80 to 100 yuan per pound, and the larger ones will be more expensive.
However, when Wu Fei bought it in the fishing ground, Cheng Baoguo calculated the wholesale price for Wu Fei at 50 yuan per pound.
In Cheng Baoguo's words, "The price of mandarin fish has dropped a lot now. If it were in June and July, the wholesale price would be sixty or seventy yuan per pound."
At that time, Wu Fei bought about one to two kilograms of mandarin fish from the fishing ground, and some were kept in the farm and cages.
However, there was almost no change in the cage. The ones in the farm have obviously grown up, and the most important thing is that they are much more fierce than when they bought it.
When Wu Fei put the mandarin fish into the bucket in the morning, in just two or three minutes, the yellow thorn fish in the bucket were bitten to death by the mandarin fish that had just been put into it.
Wu Fei had read the information and said that when the mandarin fish was relatively small, they could eat other fish equivalent to their own weight. At that time, Wu Fei didn't believe it at all.
However, after seeing the yellow stinger biting in the mouth of a mandarin fish that was less than two pounds, Wu Fei had no doubts at all.
You should know that the small yellow thorn croaker that Wu Fei prepared today was seven or eight taels, and these mandarin fish were only one and a half to two pounds, and they just killed a yellow thorn croaker in the waist.
Seeing this situation, Wu Fei hurriedly separated the yellow thorn croaker and the mandarin fish in the bucket, but it was a little late. In just a few minutes, four or five yellow thorn croaker had been bitten to death in the bucket.
Wu Fei has always known that mandarin fish eats all kinds of small fish, but he doesn't know whether mandarin fish will eat mandarin fish. However, there is an old saying that big fish eat small fish, so it is also possible for big fish to eat small fish.
In addition to some mandarin fish and yellow sprigs, Wu Fei also brought one or two hundred kilograms of other fish, all of which were prepared for the hotel.
