Chapter 43 Cost Tactics

Due to large-scale power outages, the entire city was clearly divided into two pieces. Qin Feng pushed the car back home from the dark No. 18 Middle School, which felt a bit like traveling through time.

Because of the good business brought by the fire, Qin Feng went home nearly an hour earlier today.

"Come back so early today?" Qin Jianguo asked in surprise, "Is it sold out so soon?"

"Well, it's on fire there, and many people go to watch the fun." Qin Feng explained lightly, and then looked at the thick bandage that had been taken down by Qin Jianguo and was still on the coffee table. He couldn't help but remind him, "Dad, if you plan to take leave tomorrow, you have to wrap this bandage."

"I know what I know." Qin Jianguo was still not used to being pointed at by his son and said in a deep voice.

Seeing that Qin Jianguo was impatient, Qin Feng shrugged, turned around and entered his room.

After taking the clothes to change, he went to take a shower silently. After taking the shower, the lights in Qin Jianguo's room were already dim.

Qin Feng took a look in Qin Jianguo's room and saw that he was already asleep, so he started doing his own thing lightly.

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day, and it's another weekend. In Qin Feng's opinion, this is simply a gift from God.

Qin Feng found a long-expired calendar. The back of the calendar was pure white, which happened to be used as a poster.

After tearing off one, Qin Feng took out his long-lost watercolor brush and started an advertisement to use tomorrow.

For roadside stalls like Qin Feng, advertisements do not require creativity at all, as long as they can express their meaning clearly.

So Qin Feng's advertisement is quite concise and clear. First draw an old-fashioned pattern that penetrates two hearts with one arrow, and then write the words "2.14 Valentine's Day, couples are given a 30% discount on shopping" below.

It took 10 minutes to casually and the poster was freshly released.

Qin Feng nodded with satisfaction when he looked at the old-fashioned works he made. He had a premonition and just made the poster. His business tomorrow might even catch up tonight.

After finishing the poster, Qin Feng took out the account notebook.

New Year’s new plan, judging from the market’s reaction, Qin Feng believes that it is necessary to adjust the quantity of goods purchased now.

Previously, Qin Feng's daily pre-sale volume was as follows: 400 skewers in the morning, 500 skewers in the afternoon and evening, beef dumplings, taro cakes and rice cakes accounted for a slightly larger proportion, and the remaining ingredients were all equal.

Qin Feng’s new idea now is to increase the total sales volume of a day to 1,000 skewers, and increase the ratio of beef dumplings and taro cakes. In addition, it is difficult to sell during the day, but at night, the large shipments that are often out of stock can also be added.

An hour later, Qin Feng produced two new purchase orders, corresponding to the two stalls a day.

The first stall was set up: 300 skewers in total, 60 skewers of beef dumplings, 40 skewers of taro cakes, 20 skewers of mushrooms, dried tofu, chicken hearts, chanterelles, rice cakes, vegetables, cauliflower, ham sausage, lotus root, chicken wing tips, small stews, 10 skewers of bananas, and 5 skewers of large stews. An additional 10 servings of dumpling skin (100 pictures) were prepared for stingy primary school students. The total price was 317.5 yuan.

The second stall was set up: 700 skewers in total. 200 skewers of beef dumplings, 120 skewers of taro cakes, 60 skewers of rice cakes, 30 skewers of large skewers of mushrooms, dried tofu, vegetables, cauliflower, ham sausage, lotus root, and small skewers, chicken hearts, chanterelles, chicken wing tips, and bananas. An additional 20 servings of dumpling skin (200 pictures) were prepared for stingy primary school students. Total price: 830 yuan.

The expected total selling price is 1147.5 yuan, and the average selling price per bunch is 1.14 yuan.

Total daily purchase volume: 14 kilograms of beef, with a purchase price of 280 yuan floating; 20 kilograms of pork and pork chops, with a purchase price of 250 yuan floating; 8 kilograms of taro, with a purchase price of 20 yuan floating; one pack of frozen chicken heart, chanterelles, and chicken wing tips, and the total purchase price of three samples is 40 yuan; the total purchase price of five samples of mushrooms, dried tofu, green vegetables, cauliflower, and lotus root is 40 yuan floating; the price of bananas is 30 yuan floating. 8 rice cakes are 16 yuan. 6 kilograms of flour and one kilogram of eggs, with a total purchase price of 15 yuan floating.

The total daily purchase price of ingredients required: floating around 700 yuan.

In addition: the daily oil cost is 30 yuan, the seasoning cost is 20 yuan, the fuel cost is 25 yuan, and the bamboo sticks and plastic bags are 20 yuan.

The final total cost: 800 yuan per day floats up and down, and the average cost per string is 0.8 yuan.

Qin Feng made the above content into a table, and the types, quantity, purchase price, total cost and expected selling price of each ingredient are clearly marked.

However, such a perfect report made Qin Feng's eyes twitch.

I really don’t know what’s like to account, I’m shocked.

The business of midnight snacks these days is so good. Qin Feng originally thought that he had made great strides towards his goal of earning more than 10,000 yuan a month, but he never expected that just because of the changes in the types of ingredients, he worked hard for a long time and not only did he not raise the profit, but he actually made a lot less money than before.

And what made him most annoying was that this happened when he spent 8 hours on a night stall every day!

"I only earn 34 cents for every seller. Who am I working hard for and whom do I work for..." Qin Feng stared at the table with his eyes straight. After a long time of stunnedness, he bit his teeth and became angry.

"Cost! The cost is too high, the cost must be reduced!" Qin Feng closed the notebook, stood up and walked back and forth in the room for two rounds, and slowly stopped.

He thought of a solution, but it was just a relatively unkind solution.

At present, the only way to save costs is nothing more than four words: cutting corners.

Qin Feng sat back at the table, frowned and hesitated for a long time, but finally failed to resist the temptation of profits and did what all the profiteers in the world would do.

He picked up the pen and changed the beef purchase volume from 14 kilograms to 10 kilograms.

Qin Feng decided to only put 3 beef in the beef dumplings from tomorrow, instead of the previous 4 pieces. In this way, he reduced the cost by at least 80 yuan a day and earned an additional 2,400 yuan in one month.

But Qin Feng did not stop there.

Since he had already started doing something that was sorry for the majority of customers, Qin Feng simply did it all the time, and then used a small ship to cut the amount of pork by 5 kilograms in one breath.

Speaking of small steaks, Qin Feng made it completely in the style of the kebab aunt stall, each kebab aunt, with 4 pieces of each kebab, and the size of each kebab aunt was 2 cm square. This was obviously due to her loose knife skills. Therefore, Qin Feng’s plan was to use his own technical advantages to cut the small steaks a little smaller, cut it into 1 cm square as the size of the beef diced, and then put 5 pieces of each kebab, and reduce the price to 1.5 pieces. In this way, the taste of the small steaks will be better, and the customers will not feel slaughtered by Qin Feng.

As for Qin Feng, he saved at least 40% of the amount of pork without knowing it, and the cost was reduced to more cruel than beef dumplings.

After this calculation, the average profit of selling skewers was suddenly raised to 45 cents.
