It is precisely because Xu Song and others have witnessed Gu Zheng's rise to fame and are all supporters of Gu Zheng that they are so excited and respectful when they see Gu Zheng.
In fact, Xu Song recognized Gu Zheng when he came to buy his roast chicken, but he hadn't seen him for several months, and he was wondering why Gu Zheng appeared here and came to buy his roast chicken, so he found Gu Zheng again.
photos to confirm again.
After confirmation, he came out and recognized Gu Zheng, not to mention how happy he was.
Some people chase stars, some like literati, some like sports superstars, everyone has different hobbies, Xu Song is in the food industry, the people he likes are chefs, and the people he admires are also chefs, Gu Zheng is
His idol.
Even though he is older, he is no different from young people in this regard. He is very excited to see his idol.
Imagine, a little girl sees the little fresh meat she likes, and a person who likes to play football sees Messi, whom he admires, what will their reaction be?
Xu Song is in this mood now, excited, happy, delighted, and in disbelief.
"Thank you for your support. If you go to Shanghai in the future, come to me directly and I'll treat you to chicken blood soup!"
Gu Zheng smiled slightly, Xu Song was different from Zhao Pingchuan. Zhao Pingchuan also liked him, but he only liked him after seeing him on TV and seeing his performance.
When Zhao Pingchuan saw him, he was not as excited as Xu Song.
Xu Song's feelings for Gu Zheng are the feelings that real fans have. From the initial envy and jealousy of competing on the same stage, to blessing Gu Zheng, and later supporting Gu Zheng, hoping that Gu Zheng can get a better ranking, Xu Song
It has been achieved step by step. This kind of fan loyalty with emotional changes has always been the highest.
In layman's terms, it means turning from black to pink.
Especially during the finals, they waited for Gu Zheng and wished Gu Zheng together in the square. That time increased their cohesion and deepened their feelings for Gu Zheng, especially when Gu Zheng really won the first place in the end and fulfilled his promise.
After disappointing them, they really regarded Gu Zheng as their idol.
The most important idol, bar none.
"Really, thank you so much, but I still have to pay when it's time to pay!"
Xu Song was stunned for a moment and looked even more excited. Gu Zheng actually wanted to treat him to something, and it was chicken blood soup made by Gu Zheng himself. It was like a little fresh meat inviting you to go shopping together or a football superstar inviting you to play football together.
, can you not be excited?
Xu Song's hands were shaking slightly because of his excitement. It was hard to believe that this was a man in his forties.
"By the way, I'm just talking to myself. What's Master Gu doing here? He won't come here just to buy some roasted meat from a small shop." Xu Song suddenly thought of something and immediately asked again. Gu Zheng looked at it with a smile.
He nodded slightly.
Xu Song originally had a smile on his face, but as Gu Zheng nodded, his smile became stiffer and stiffer, and finally became very unnatural.
"Master Gu, you are really good at joking, I can't afford that!"
He originally asked casually to relieve his nervousness, and it was in a joking nature. He deliberately asked if he came here specifically to buy his roast chicken. Unexpectedly, Gu Zheng actually nodded, which made him very embarrassed.
In fact, when he said this, he never thought about this possibility at all.
"I'm not kidding, I came here just to taste the roast chicken you cooked, but I didn't know it was yours before!"
Gu Zheng said with a smile that he really didn't know that the owner of this store was his fan, but he would come if he knew. After all, he is now carrying a test. If he wants to complete the test, he needs to find better food.
Traditional folk snacks.
"I am doing a survey to investigate which folk snacks are better than the most famous traditional snacks. For example, the chicken blood soup I made before is better than Bianjing Sunji's chicken blood soup.
Eat the same thing, we need to find the real master among the people!"
Gu Zheng used himself as an analogy. He had no suitable partner, so he had to do it like this, although it was somewhat boastful.
But now even Sun Ji Laotang belongs to him, so it doesn't matter.
"So that's it. Could it be that, Master Gu, you think my roast chicken is very good?" Xu Song nodded, his eyes getting brighter and brighter, and he was a little excited.
"The roast chicken you made does taste good, but it still can't compare to those really high-quality roast chickens. But in terms of taste, it's already above average. At least here, it's the best!"
Gu Zheng doesn't know if there is any better roast chicken here than him, but to be recommended by the Food Association and with such a good business, it must be difficult for anyone to surpass him.
If there were, Guzheng would not have come here, but over there.
"Thank you, thank you Master Gu for your praise. I know my shortcomings. In fact, I also want to persevere like my senior brother, but it is really not easy to persevere like that. I still have a family to support, so I can only compromise with reality!"
Xu Song spoke quickly, as if he had thought of something, and immediately said: "Master Gu, if you are looking for better traditional snacks, you can go to my senior brother's place. At least so far, the roast chicken I have eaten is,
No one can compare to my senior brother!"
"Your senior brother?"
Xu Song nodded heavily: "Yes, my senior brother. What my senior brother makes is the real Wang's roast chicken, and mine is no longer the same!"
Xu Song's senior brother is called Xiang Ming. He is over 50 years old this year. He is not in Ningbo, but in a small town in the north.
Xu Song's home was originally in Ningbo, so he came back. The two of them learned skills from the master, who was from that small town. After completing the studies, the master asked them both to leave. After he came back, he opened a business by himself
After the master passed away, his senior brother returned to the town, inherited the master's roast chicken restaurant, and continued to run it.
The business of that roast chicken restaurant was not as good as Xu Song's, or even worse, so Xiang Ming did not go back to covet the master's inheritance, but purely to inherit the master's craftsmanship and prevent it from being lost.
The reason why Xu Song said that what he cooks is no longer pure Wang's roast chicken is because the ingredients he uses are different from Wang's roast chicken. The main ingredients are different, so naturally it is not pure Wang's roast chicken.
The real Wang's roast chicken uses a breed called Lucai chicken. This kind of chicken is difficult to feed and requires careful attention. Traditional feed cannot be used and must be raised naturally, otherwise the chicken may change.
Quality affects the meatiness of chicken.
The special breeding conditions of Lucai chicken are destined to keep its price high.
Ordinary raised chickens cost seven or eight yuan per catty, better free-range chickens cost more than ten yuan per catty, and better ones only cost about twenty yuan per catty. The cost of raising Lucai chickens is just
A whopping 451 pounds.
This is just the breeding cost. If you make roast chicken, you will lose money if it is not eighty-one pounds. With such a high price, even if it tastes better, there are only a limited number of people who can buy it.
Fortunately, the number of Lucai chickens raised is not too large. Just raise one and sell the other, and Lucai chickens are maintained.
The person who raises Lu Cai chicken is a good friend of Xu Song and his master. Lu Cai chicken is processed by ordinary methods. The taste is good, but the quality is limited. Without good cooking skills, if ordinary people cook it, it will be better than usual.
The free-range chicken that costs 20 yuan is not much better. As a result, no one is willing to buy the Lucai chicken that is several times more expensive. Only people with certain cooking skills can turn it into a real delicacy.
Before his death, the master hoped that one of his two brothers could return to inherit this craft. In the end, it was Xiang Ming who returned.
The reason for this is to allow Lu Cai Chicken to continue to be raised and Wang's Roast Chicken to be passed down.
Xu Song had just had a child at that time and didn't want to go back. In the end, his senior brother returned to the town and continued to run Wang's Roast Chicken.
"Where is your senior brother?"
After listening to Xu Song's description, Gu Zheng asked softly. The story Xu Song told had attracted him. Gu Zheng had never seen roast chicken with a retail price of eighty-one pounds.
However, the Lu Cai chicken he mentioned made Gu Zheng very interested. I wonder if the Lu Cai chicken raised by this special method has reached the second-class quality. If it reaches the second-class quality, it may really help him complete the three points.
one of the tests.
“Licheng Huodian Town!”
Xu Song spoke quickly, and then continued: "Master Gu, if you can, I hope you can help my senior brother to publicize it. Although people's living standards have improved now, his business there is really average!"
"Okay, if it's as good as you say, I will definitely help him promote it!"
Gu Zheng directly agreed that good-tasting food should be promoted and publicized. Isn’t it because those famous Western snacks and century-old brands are praised and promoted by others because they taste good, and they eventually accumulate and become famous?
If you give a delicious thing time to accumulate, it will definitely become famous.
The trip to Ningbo was disappointing again, but he finally got a new clue. Xu Song was very happy about Gu Zheng's arrival. He originally wanted to invite Gu Zheng to dinner, but Gu Zheng had a new clue and wanted to go there early, so he refused.
After returning to Shanghai to rest for a day, Guzheng set off again, this time not by train, but by high-speed rail.
Licheng is more than 700 kilometers away from Shanghai. It is not cost-effective to charter a car. It takes too long. It takes seven or eight hours to drive. The high-speed rail only takes more than two hours. It saves time and is the last high-speed rail to be built in Guzheng.
Huodian Town belongs to Licheng, but it is adjacent to Yongcheng. Get off at Yongcheng Station, and it is more than ten miles to the place Xu Song mentioned. Xu Song pointed out the route to him, and told his senior brother in advance, so that
His senior brother went to pick up Gu Zheng.
"Gu Zheng, Gu Master?"
As soon as Gu Zheng came out of the high-speed rail station, a man in his fifties came over. After looking Gu Zheng up and down, he asked softly.
"I am Gu Zheng!"
Gu Zheng stretched out his hand, and the man shook his hand. Without saying anything, he led Gu Zheng to a van. The van was very old and looked like it had been around for a long time.
The person who took over Gu Zheng was Xu Song's senior brother Xiang Ming, but the driver was not him, but his son.
Wang's Roast Chicken is located in the center of Huodian Town, a typical northern town. It consists of a cross main street and several auxiliary streets. Wang's Roast Chicken shop is located at one end of the cross main street. The location is very good.
The house was left by Xu Song and his master. Their master never married and had children, only their two apprentices. Xu Song gave up and was unwilling to return to this place, so Xiang Ming inherited everything.
The front is not big, and there are tables and chairs inside. When Gu Zheng arrived, it was 11 o'clock at noon, which was close to meal time. At this time, many restaurants started to get people. The better restaurants were already crowded, like Gu Zheng.
The popular restaurant was already full of people at eleven o'clock.
It's deserted here, not a single customer.
"Xiao Song once said that you, the first place winner in the Hangzhou Competition, make very good chicken blood soup!"
Entering the store, Xiang Ming asked Gu Zheng to sit down and said casually that Gu Zheng was Xu Song's idol and had nothing to do with Xiang Ming. If Xu Song hadn't called him to ask for his help, he wouldn't have been willing to pick him up.
"I came here this time to try the real Wang's roast chicken! Is it really as delicious as the rumors say?"
Gu Zheng smiled slightly. He understood that the other party was not too cold towards him, but that was not important. The most important thing was the taste of the food.
Xu Song introduced his senior brother, who was a bit old-fashioned, but not a bad person, and Gu Zheng didn't care about his tone.
“Wang’s roast chicken is the best!”
Xiang Ming's nasal voice worsened, he got up and went inside, and after a while he took out a whole roasted chicken. This roasted chicken was much larger than what he usually bought, more than double. Looking at the size of the roasted chicken,
Gu Zheng knew why their business was so bad.
The retail price of their roast chicken is eighty-one pounds, which is a conscientious price with very low profit margins.
Moreover, their roasted chickens are never sold in pieces. They do not sell drumsticks, chicken wings, chicken breasts, chickens, etc. individually. You have to buy a whole chicken. The smallest of their roasted chickens weighs four or five kilograms, which is the smallest.
It costs three to four hundred and one.
Three or four hundred is enough for a few people to have a good meal outside. Very few people in the countryside would buy a roast chicken.
There are rich people and dignitaries who are not short of money who come to buy, but after all, the quantity is too small, and they all buy it and take it away, which is why the current business situation is deserted.
The roast chicken that Xiang Ming took out weighed four and a half pounds and was placed whole on the plate.
"Brother, please forgive me for settling the accounts. It's a small business!"
Xiang Ming put down the roast chicken and said something calmly. Gu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't laugh or cry. Xiang Ming was worried that he wouldn't be paid for eating the roast chicken, but he had never thought about it this way.
"Four hundred, no need to change. The rest will be used as fare. If it's not enough, I'll add more!"
Gu Zheng took out four hundred yuan and burned eleven kilograms of meat. Four and a half kilograms cost three hundred and sixty yuan. Xiang Ming picked Gu Zheng up from the high-speed rail station. Gu Zheng didn't know how much the fare was.
"I picked you up because of my junior brother's face. What's the point of collecting money? The chicken is roasted because of my small business, so I can't give it away!"
Xiang Ming took the money and gave Gu Zheng 40 yuan in change. Looking at the money on the table, Gu Zheng shook his head helplessly. This Xiang Ming was not a bit old-fashioned. No wonder Xu Song kept telling him that he hoped that he would
Can you be more tolerant.
However, this also shows that Xiang Ming is a very principled person.
The roasted chicken exudes a delicate fragrance. It was fished out of the pot just now. It is slightly different from ordinary roasted chicken. The skin of Wang's roasted chicken is brighter and looks more golden.
Gu Zheng didn't use chopsticks, he just used his hands and pulled the chicken legs off with a gentle pull.
After the chicken legs were pulled off, a tangy smell immediately spread over the nose. Gu Zheng couldn't help but sniff. The smell was very good. Looking at the chicken, the white and tender chicken seemed to be wrapped with a layer of crystal clear...
The oil juice is like white crystal, which makes you salivate just by looking at it.
Just by smelling the aroma and looking at it, you can guess that the taste is good, and the color, fragrance, and the first two are all present.
“Wang’s roasted chicken, the main ingredient is inferior!”
The weapon spirit's appraisal sounded, and Gu Zheng's eyes twitched slightly. Sure enough, the quality of Lu Cai's chicken was as he guessed, reaching the second-class level. The roast chicken made with second-class ingredients has inherited cooking skills.
, Gu Zheng is looking forward to it very much.
Taking a bite of the meat from the chicken leg, the unique flavor of chicken immediately filled Gu Zheng's mouth, stimulating his taste buds. The chicken was particularly tender, and it didn't have the astringency of other chickens. Many of Gu Zheng's cooking skills are related to chicken.
He is considered an expert in this field. He has eaten so many chickens, and except for the fairy chicken, none of them can compare with the roast chicken in front of him.
Even the honey chicken he made for the first time was only equally matched. The honey chicken was added with ordinary honey. Without that kind of honey, the taste would not be as good as Wang's roasted chicken.
"Congratulations to the descendant of Tiexian, Wang's roast chicken is the most delicious roast chicken, better than Daokou roast chicken. This test has been completed again!"
It’s done, the roast chicken has been approved by the spirit of the weapon. This test requires three kinds of folk delicacies. Now we have found two. Only the last one is missing to complete this test.
After completing one of the tests, Gu Zheng felt better. It was rare to encounter such delicious roast chicken, so he simply ate it there.
The four and a half kilograms of roast chicken was finally eaten by Gu Zheng alone. Xiang Ming was standing next to him, his eyes widening as he watched.
Four and a half kilograms. Now there is only a little broken chicken bone left. Why is it a little? Because the bones of the roasted chicken are also very crispy. The real roasted chicken is fragrant to the bone marrow. The chicken bones have a special taste. Gu Zheng
Many bones were eaten.
With inferior ingredients, there is no need to worry about food safety.
"Gu, Master Gu, you have such a good appetite!"
Watching Gu Zheng finish eating, Xiang Ming said dumbly that he knew best about the roast chicken he cooked. It was no problem for one person to finish an ordinary roast chicken, but there were very few such big roast chickens.
One person can eat them all.
Even if there are, they are all that kind of strong men. Looking at Gu Zheng's thin arms and legs, he doesn't look like him at all.
"I've always had a good appetite!"
Gu Zheng laughed. There was water in the store, low-grade underground water. It was perfectly fine to wash your hands and face.
After packing himself up, Gu Zheng returned to Xiang Ming. The test was completed. The roast chicken was indeed what he needed to find, but the trip was not over yet.
Such delicious food made Gu Zheng think about bringing it to his own shop.
The food in his shop has always been scarce. The last time I met Boss Hu, he added a kind of noodles. Now the store has chicken blood soup, noodles and mineral water. After all, there are only these three kinds.
Wang's roast chicken tasted so good, but the business here was so bad, so he thought of inviting Wang's roast chicken to the store to enrich the food in the store.
Such roasted chicken is so expensive here that no one buys it, but there is absolutely no problem in his store. Moreover, when the roasted chicken arrives in his store, it will not only sell for 81 kilograms, the price will be at least doubled.
, over there is Shanghai, an international metropolis, and there are many people who are willing to pay a lot of money for really delicious food.
Moreover, the labor and store costs in Guzheng are far higher than here. Selling eighty-one pounds is definitely a loss, so the price can only be raised.
"Your appetite is rare!"
Xiang Ming gave a rare smile. He believed that his roast chicken was delicious. He even brought a small one to Gu Zheng before, but it was rare for Gu Zheng to eat it all at once.
"Master Xiang, I heard Xu Song tell you about your situation, and I admire you very much, but this place is too small, which restricts your development. Have you ever considered moving Wang's Roast Chicken to a big city for development?
"
Gu Zheng said slowly, and his son happened to come over. Hearing what Gu Zheng said, he immediately stopped and stood aside.
Xiang Ming glanced at his son first, then shook his head: "Master Gu, I appreciate your kindness. This is the master's property. I want to help the master guard it. I have never thought of going outside!"
Xiang Ming refused, and he refused very simply. In fact, it was not that no one had ever made this request. There were also people who wanted to cooperate with him, but he refused them all.
Xiang Ming's sons looked disappointed. Gu Zheng noticed their expressions and immediately understood.
It seems that Xiang Ming's son really wants to go out and doesn't want to stay here. It's normal for him to have such thoughts. Xiang Ming's son is only about 24 or 25 years old. He's not that old. Young people all yearn to go out and have a try.
Xiang Ming was originally a rigid person, and as he was getting older, he wanted to guard his master's property and didn't want to go out, which was human nature.
"Master Xiang, I understand your feelings. In fact, it is the same wherever you protect your master's property..."
"You don't understand. I swore to the master that I would never leave here. Every plant and tree here was built with the master's hard work. If I leave, this place will never exist again!"
Before Gu Zheng could finish speaking, Xiang Ming interrupted Gu Zheng. Many people had said similar words. He had heard it many times and didn't want to hear it again.
"Okay, I respect your choice, let's change the cooperation mode!"
Gu Zheng sighed slightly. He really enjoyed the roast chicken here. It tasted very good. The main ingredient of the roast chicken, chicken, was inferior. The other ingredients were not bad, but most of them were low-grade and rarely reached the standard.
Second-rate.
Even so, the roast chicken still tastes delicious, and cooking skills account for a lot of the credit. Wang's roast chicken cooking skills are indeed very good.
Because of Xu Song's cooking skills, he substituted low-grade chicken. The braised roast chicken still tasted very good and was very popular.
Wang's roast chicken, which tastes better and has better ingredients than Xu Song's, will be recognized by everyone no matter where it goes. Gu Zheng originally opened a chicken blood soup shop, so selling roast chicken is very suitable, at least it is related to chicken.
"What cooperation model?"
"You do it here. I order a certain amount of roast chicken every day. When you are ready, send it to me via high-speed rail to Shanghai. I will send someone to pick it up!"
If cooperation is not possible, then become an agent. Now that the high-speed rail is connected, it is very convenient. It only takes more than two hours to get to Shanghai from here. If you deal with it properly, it will take two or three hours to get to Guzheng, and there will be no problem with the roasted chicken.
The problem.
Xiang Ming sat up straight. It was obvious that he had some intentions. People before had wanted to cooperate with him or invite him out, but no one had ever mentioned this method.
Xiang Ming's son also came over, sat next to his father, and couldn't help but ask: "How much can you ask for every day?"
Gu Zheng's proposal is very good. Why is his father reluctant to leave this small town now? Gu Zheng's method can at least boost their business without having to struggle like they are now.
I just don’t know how much Guzheng needs. If I only need a few every day, it won’t help much.
"It's not clear yet. In the beginning, there will be 100 birds per day, and it may increase to 300 or 500 birds in the future!"
Gu Zheng considered the actual situation in his store. He could sell out 5,000 servings of chicken blood soup every day, and now the noodles were stable at 1,500 servings every day. The roast chicken tastes good, so 500 servings should be no problem.
But getting diners to accept the roast chicken has to go through a process and takes a certain amount of time, so Gu Zheng said that there will only be a hundred chickens at the beginning.
"If you think there are too few, then I will order at least five hundred every day!"
Seeing that the father and son were silent, Gu Zheng said something again. The father and son looked at each other with helplessness on their faces.
It’s not that Gu Zheng wants too little, but too much. Their daily sales volume now is only about ten, and in good times it’s only twenty or thirty. Unless there is a big customer who buys a lot at one time, in which case they can sell dozens a day.
Only.
It's a pity that there are very few big customers like that, and they just go back and give them as gifts when they buy them. The five hundred that Gu Zheng wants are simply impossible for them to do.
Even if they increase production, they can only produce a few dozen at most every day, not even a hundred.
The reason is very simple. They don't have that much supply of Lu Cai chicken. This is also one of the reasons why Xiang Ming is unwilling to go out. Wang's roast chicken is the most delicious only when it is made with Lu Cai chicken. If it is replaced by anything else, it will not be as delicious.
A taste.
People have always raised Lu Cai chickens, but the cost is very high and the output is limited. Especially there are very few merchants using Lu Cai chickens. Their output has always been very limited. It is impossible for him to achieve the 500 chickens that Gu Zheng wants.
Even a hundred of them are enough.
Fifty a day is the best guarantee he can make.
Xiang Ming told Gu Zheng about the situation, and Gu Zheng was very shocked. He thought the other party thought it was too few, but he didn't expect there were too many, fifty per day. With the popularity of his store, this was simply not enough.
Unless they are sold separately, but even if they are sold separately, fifty is not enough, at least two hundred will be enough.
"I'm sorry, Master Gu, it's not that we don't do it, it's just that we don't have that many Lu Cai chickens, so there's really nothing we can do!"
Xiang Ming smiled bitterly, big cities are really good, people say five hundred a day, which is ten times his maximum output, but there is no supply of goods, it is useless to go to big cities, there is nothing to sell there, it is better to stay at home.
"Even if it's fifty, I can't give it all to you, otherwise there will be nothing to sell here. I can only give you forty per day at most. Master Gu, you decide whether you want it or not!"
Xiang Ming said again that he could not give up the business here just because Gu Zheng wanted them all. This was not his original intention, so the amount given to Gu Zheng was reduced.
Forty pieces, plus shipping, storage, and labor costs, would probably cost one hundred yuan per catty in Shanghai. The increase in cost equals the increase in price. I don’t know if Gu Zheng will stick to his previous idea.
"Since there are only these, let's make forty. Master Xiang, are you just unable to make so many Lu Cai chickens because of the small number of Lu Cai chickens? If there are enough Lu Cai chickens, you can make more Wang Cai chickens every day.
Roast chicken?"
There are only forty chickens, and Gu Zheng has nothing to do. It is better to have something than nothing. It will enrich the food in the store by selling so many. Later, when the production of roast chicken here increases, we will ask for more.
"You are right. If there are enough Lu Cai chickens, we can make five hundred chickens a day without any problem!"
Xiang Ming nodded. There were enough Lucai chickens. If they did it, all they would have to do was physical strength. It would be okay if they worked harder. He was not afraid of hard work, but it was a pity that there was not that much supply, so that was all.
"Master Xiang, I would like to visit the breeding ground of Lu Cai Chicken. Is it possible?"
Gu Zheng stood up and said again that the supply of goods was tight and not enough, so he should find a way to increase the supply. Even if the increase could not be 500 a day, it would be better to double or triple the supply.
If there are more supplies here, Guzheng will be able to sell more.
If Gu Zheng can sell more, more people will be able to eat this kind of high-quality food. It is also Gu Zheng's responsibility to promote better food. His job is food review, which includes the important task of promoting food.
, Gu Zheng’s articles are not all criticism, there are also many praises.
"Of course. If you want to go, I can take you there right now. It's not far from here!"
Xiang Ming also got up. Lu Caiji and them were originally together, very close to each other. The place where Lu Cai chickens were raised was a small farm at the foot of a mountain. The farmer who raised Lu Cai chickens was raised close to the mountain.
The environment of the farm is good, and there are several employees. In addition to asking Ming for their Lucai chickens, there are also two or three merchants using them. If these merchants had not been supporting them, this farm would have been destroyed long ago.
B.
"Boss, this is the master of Gu Zhenggu, the first place in the Hangzhou Food Competition!"
The owner of the farm, whose surname is He, is about the same age as Xiang Ming. He inherited his father's business, just like Xiang Ming inherited his master's business. The two of them are family friends, and they have a very good relationship and a good relationship.
It's just that Xiang Ming, like everyone else, always likes to mention Gu Zheng's previous results when introducing Gu Zheng. The first place in the Hangzhou Food Competition is his best result so far.
"Hello, Master Gu!"
The boss and I didn't know Gu Zheng's intention, but we still received him very politely.
"Boss He, I just heard from Master Xiang that the output of Lucai chickens here is not high. What is the reason for the low output?"
Gu Zheng gets straight to the point and asks questions directly.
To increase the production of Lu Cai chickens, we can only start at the breeding farms. First of all, we must understand why their production has not been high. If it is because Lu Cai chickens are very difficult to raise, or the environment here can only allow them to raise so many, other
If the location is not good, then the idea of increasing production should be abandoned.
Just like Tianmian, the two brothers Wang Wei and Wang Zhen also wanted to increase production, but they could not do anything to increase the output of the land.
"The output is not high, and the reason is actually very simple. One is funds, and the other is there are not so many customers!"
Boss He sighed, and Gu Zheng felt slightly relieved. As long as it wasn't a specific reason, the two reasons that limited Boss He's output didn't have any problems with him.
Gu Zheng has the funds. Now the store has a daily turnover of more than 500,000 yuan, and the profit is almost half, with a net profit of several million a month. There is absolutely no problem in investing in the stock. Give them enough funds.
As for customers, it's even simpler. You are their customers, big customers.
"Boss He, how much capital will be needed to increase production to provide an additional 500 pieces per day?"
Gu Zheng asked again, and Boss He was stunned for a moment. He provided five hundred chickens every day. This was not a small number. The time for Lu Cai's chickens to come out of the cage was longer than that of ordinary chickens. Chickens raised on feed can be released from the cage in forty or fifty days.
Free-range chickens also take two or three months to grow. Their Lucai chickens take five months to grow.
Because of this, their chicken raising costs will increase significantly.
"The chickens will be increased by five hundred every day. I will add dozens of employees and increase the supply of chicken food. As long as you have money, there will be enough food in Mangdang Mountain, but this will require a lot of money. The chickens will be added by five hundred every day.
, it is estimated that the cost will increase by more than 2.8 million yuan!"
Boss He made an estimate and finally stated the funding gap, adding five hundred chickens every day. In fact, he doesn't have that many chickens coming out of the cage every day, only a hundred or ten chickens every day at most, and it's not like this every day. If the person who orders
If it is less, they will also reduce the amount of food they feed.
If the raised chickens cannot be sold, they will lose money.
That's why Xiang Ming dared to say that he could only make fifty at most every day, and Boss He could only provide him with so much now.
"Boss He, I will give you three million. First, I will order 500 Lucai chickens per day. I can sign the contract today and give you the money. I hope you can increase production as soon as possible!"
Gu Zheng said softly, and Boss He and Master Xiang both widened their eyes.
Gu Zheng really wanted 500 chickens, and he directly placed a deposit of 3 million. With these 3 million, it means that Boss He no longer has to worry about the funding gap and can raise more Lucai chickens and expand the market.
Farm size.
"Master Gu, to be honest, my factory is not even worth 3 million, so why do you believe me so much? Besides, you can buy my factory without 3 million, so why give me so much money to expand the scale?
?”
Xiang Ming agreed very much with what Boss He said, while the employees around Boss He wanted to slap him twice.
Is my boss crazy or something? Someone offered to give me money but he refused. He said something like this, three million, this is three million. Many people have never seen so much money in their lives.
"You and Master Xiang are both of the same kind. Since you have been able to stay here for so many years, of course I believe you. I know that there is no problem in buying your factory for three million, or that I can directly invest in it, which is better than giving you so much money."
Want to be high, but I have a shortcoming that you don't know. I am very lazy and don't like any management. My purpose is just to get more Wang's roast chicken, as long as I can get enough Wang's roast chicken!
"
"Even if I place this order for Master Xiang, all you need to do is provide him with enough Lu Cai chicken!"
Gu Zheng kept smiling, and what he said was true. If he were asked to buy this factory, he would definitely not do it. If he bought shares and cooperated with unfamiliar people, he might as well just be a customer.
His purpose is to get Wang's roasted chicken, as long as he is given enough Wang's roasted chicken, he doesn't care whether he pays first or later.
"Okay, I promise you!"
Boss He thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said something.
The employees around Boss He are very happy. Three million, a big order of three million. They have never had such a big order. Now the factory will be busy, and each of them can get rich harvests.
Master Xiang is also very happy. Boss He has always wanted to expand the breeding farm, but has never been able to do it. This time with Gu Zheng's help, he finally can.
At this moment, he even wanted to agree to Gu Zheng and agree to go to Shanghai with him.
It's a pity that if he really went, people here would no longer be able to eat Wang's roast chicken. Thinking of the master's last wish before his death, he finally insisted on staying.
However, he can teach his son the skills of making roast chicken and let his son go to Shencheng to help Gu Zheng in the future.
Sooner or later, he had to teach this skill to his son. The reason why he had not taught it before was because he was afraid that his son would learn the same thing as Xu Song and run out to open a shop. In that case, no one on his side would be able to inherit it, and he could not let the master down.
Once his son learns it, he may still go out, but with a stable sales channel, he will also sell Wang's roast chicken made by Lu Cai chicken when he goes out. He has also inherited this skill, and Wang's roast chicken will never stop.
Xiang Ming promised his master to protect his master's shop, but his son did not agree.
His son can go out, and as long as he still cooks Wang's roast chicken, he will be worthy of his master and has no regrets.
This is a happy outcome for everyone. Gu Zheng has achieved his goal, Master Xiang has also solved the future future of himself and his son, Boss He has successfully expanded the scale of breeding, and everyone is happy.
"I'm not bragging. My Lu Cai Chicken is really incomparable to ordinary chickens. It's a pity that I haven't had good cooking skills to cooperate. If it weren't for Master Xiang and Master Shao, I'm afraid my factory would have closed down. Lu Cai Chicken
From now on I can only feed myself!"
After signing the contract, Gu Zheng immediately asked Chang Feng to help him transfer the money first. This order was actually to increase the supply of goods for the store and to handle the store's accounts.
Although Chang Feng didn't care about money, Gu Zheng didn't want to make any mistakes about money, otherwise he would be sorry.
"My side is fine, but Master Shao's side is more troublesome. He makes bucket chicken, and fewer people eat it!"
I sighed to the master. Master Shao is another old friend. He makes bucket chicken at home and uses Lu Cai chicken. However, he does not use Lu Cai chicken for all. Lu Cai chicken is too expensive. The bucket chicken he makes is
The price is very high and it is difficult to sell.
The bucket chicken he makes is usually chicken that costs seven or eight yuan per pound. Only when customers order it or eat it themselves, they use Lu Cai chicken.
His skills in making bucket chicken are also good, and he is very famous in his local area. There are two chicken kings in the area, one is Wang's roast chicken, and the other is Shao's bucket chicken.
I have eaten Tongzi Chicken Guzheng and bought it when I was in Shanghai. The taste was very average.
"Tongzi chicken, can I try it?"
Gu Zheng's heart moved slightly. Bucket chicken is also a famous traditional snack. The most famous bucket chicken is in Bianjing. Majia bucket chicken is famous throughout the country and is a century-old brand. It is said that they also have a pot of century-old soup to stew their bucket chicken.
Bianjing Majia Tongzi Chicken is not much less famous than Daokou Roast Chicken. It is a traditional snack that meets the requirements of the spirit test.
I have never been here before in Guzheng. Today is the first time. The main ingredient used in Tongzi Chicken is the second-grade Lucai chicken. If there is something unique in the cooking skills, it is possible to surpass Majia Tongzi Chicken. If that is the case,
, which means he can complete all the tests this time.
"Of course, you have no problem at all. I'll call Lao Shao now, but I don't know if he has any in stock!"
Boss He laughed loudly and immediately took out his mobile phone and made a call.
Not long after, a man came to the farm on an electric bike. The man was in his forties and he was carrying a big bag.
Inside the bag is the bucket chicken he brought. The bucket chicken is made from Lu Cai chicken. The Lu Cai chicken is very big, and the roasted chicken is not small. The bucket chicken is also not small.
This bucket chicken weighed more than six kilograms. After the weapon spirit appraised the quality, Gu Zheng tore off a small piece and tasted it in small bites.
Tongzi chicken and roasted chicken are both made from whole chickens, but they have two completely different flavors. Shaojia Tongzi chicken strips have a little bit of Ma flavor because of the addition of sesame pepper, but this numbness does not affect the taste of the chicken.
The taste, on the contrary, blends with the chicken, giving it a refreshing feeling like eating hot pot.
If you eat roasted chicken, it is as warm as spring, and the bucket of chicken is as hot as summer. The styles are different, but they are all equally delicious.
