"That's not the case. The quantity of the secret recipe is limited, and the feeding is also limited. It doesn't matter if there are Lucai chickens other than the secret recipe!"
Gu Zheng shook his head again. Boss He was a businessman, so there was no need to make the relationship too tense. After all, they were both from the same place. They had their own secret recipe for chicken, so just provide it to him.
"Master Xiang, there is one more thing I want to do this time. I am going to increase the purchase price of Wang's roast chicken by ten yuan per catty, and the retail price will also be raised to the same price as Tongzi chicken!"
Gu Zheng turned his head again and said something to Xiang Ming.
Raise the price of roast chicken and bring the price of roast chicken to the same level as that of bucket chicken. This is what Guzheng thought before.
In fact, the production cost of these two types of chicken is not very different. The reason why there was a price difference in the beginning is because the one Xiang Ming sold before was not expensive. He only sold this kind of roast chicken. If it was too expensive, no one would eat it.
.
The reason why Shaw's prices are higher is because they also have ordinary bucket chicken. Even if this kind of chicken is not sold, they are not afraid.
This means that Xiang Ming's supply price has always been lower than that of Shaw Brothers. Gu Zheng didn't have time to take care of this matter before. Now that he knows it, he definitely can't just sit back and ignore it. Xiang Ming has always supported him and stood by him.
The people on his side are considered his own people, and he cannot let his own people feel cold at all costs.
In addition to increasing the purchase price of roast chicken, Gu Zheng also plans to ask Xiang Kai to come over and let him learn from Gao Changhe first. If he is talented, he can be asked to take over Gao Changhe's class in the future. Similarly, he will also be given
He allocated a house in Shanghai, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation.
For Xiang Ming, this was a complete surprise.
The cost of his and Shaw's bucket chickens is about the same. He has known this for a long time, and he also knows that his own is cheaper, but their prices were just like this before, and he never thought about anything else, let alone any complaints.
It can be said that he did not expect that Gu Zheng would take the initiative to increase the price.
Now his costs have not increased compared to before. Such a direct price increase is equivalent to a lot more profit for him. An extra ten yuan per catty, five hundred chickens per day, and thousands of catties, is equivalent to tens of thousands more income.
This is equivalent to directly doubling his profits.
This is definitely a great gift for Xiang Ming.
"Master Gu, this can't be done, it can't be done, there is no reason to raise the price!"
Xiang Ming is a real person. Gu Zheng took the initiative to raise the price. He was still shaking his head to refuse. Gu Zheng looked at him and smiled again. Such a real person cannot let him suffer.
"Master Xiang, let's settle it like this. In fact, it was my negligence at the beginning. I should have unified the prices of roast chicken and bucket chicken a long time ago, so that it would be more convenient for us to sell!"
The price of the two types of chicken is different, which actually has a drawback.
That is in Shanghai, some people think that bucket chicken is better than roasted chicken. After all, it is more expensive. Is the more expensive one better? They have no idea that the cost difference between the two kinds of chicken is only one or two yuan, so they are completely equal.
Hierarchical products.
Gu Zheng's unilateral increase in the price of roast chicken is also to eliminate this understanding and let others know that roast chicken and bucket chicken are exactly the same. There is no one better or worse, both are top of the class.
Boss He personally called the boss of Shaw Brothers, and after a while, the boss of Shaw Brothers came here.
He was still a little uneasy about the arrival of Gu Zheng. Although he hated Boss He for stopping him from making more money, he also knew that without Gu Zheng, there would be no such thing as theirs.
It is not as famous as Boss He's chicken farm now.
Gu Zheng was also the new champion of the National Food Competition, and because he had something on his mind, he was slightly nervous when he saw Gu Zheng.
The people at Shaw Brothers are not stupid either. When the raw materials are blocked by Boss He, there is no way they can unilaterally tear up the contract. Shaw Brothers' attitude is good and they are self-aware.
The bucket chicken made from ordinary chickens tastes good, but it is far inferior to the bucket chicken made from Lu Cai Chicken. After the bosses came, they all chose Lu Cai Chicken bucket chicken instead of him.
When ordinary chickens made bucket chickens, he knew that once Lu Caiji was gone, these big bosses would quickly abandon him.
In this case, he can only choose to cooperate.
Shaw Brothers was willing to continue to cooperate, and Gu Zheng was spared the trouble. The final result made Gu Zheng quite satisfied.
In the end, Gu Zheng didn't ask for Boss He's shares, which impressed Boss He and Xiang Ming even more. Unfortunately, they didn't know that these shares, which were very valuable to them, were really nothing in Gu Zheng's eyes.
.
"Is it arranged so quickly?"
The day after Gu Zheng returned to Shencheng, Chang Feng came to him and told him that everything had been arranged and he could leave with Gu Zheng at any time.
Gu Zheng originally thought that Chang Feng would need a month to deal with these things, but he didn't expect that he could finish them all in just three days.
This is not going out for fun, nor is it going to work. You may not come back once you leave. It can be ready in three days, which is indeed faster.
"Actually, I have thought about it before and thought about this issue. After I went back and talked to my family, they also expressed their support. Besides, since I have made a choice, I want to start earlier!"
Chang Feng smiled softly and continued: "I transferred all the shares of the chicken blood soup shop to my elder brother Chang Le. He will come forward in any future problems. Most of the shares of Lianfeng Group were given to my second brother. I
Two percent was left and given to Du Yang, and some of my other properties were handled by my elder brother!"
"Did you give Du Yang shares?"
Gu Zheng was stunned again. Gu Zheng knew that Changfeng had shares in Lianfeng Group, but he didn't expect that when he left this time, not all the shares in Lianfeng Group would be left to his family, but 2% would be returned to Du Yang.
Two percent doesn't sound like much, but this is a big company with an annual profit of over one billion. This two percent is no longer a small number, and with Du Yang's two percent shares, it is no longer just a small number.
A wage earner, he is also one of the shareholders.
"Yes, I know these things are of no use to you, so I left them to him. With the shares, he can develop better in the company. Besides, the second brother likes him very much and is very optimistic about him. With these shares, plus
With the support of my second brother, he can even join the board of directors!"
Chang Feng thought things through very carefully, and Gu Zheng took him to practice. He knew that he had nothing that Gu Zheng would like, so he might as well give the benefits to the people around Gu Zheng.
After such a long period of contact, he has found that Gu Zheng attaches great importance to friendship, and Du Yang is one of Gu Zheng's few friends. Leaving the benefits to Du Yang is equivalent to giving them to Gu Zheng.
"Thank you on behalf of Du Yang!"
Gu Zheng was just silent for a moment, and then said that money in the secular world really didn't mean much to him. His current state was about to reach that of an immortal cultivator. As long as he crossed the threshold of an immortal cultivator, his future time in the secular world would be
It won't be much, and it is also his wish to let his former friends live a better life.
Since Chang Feng has this heart, it can be regarded as Du Yang's good fortune.
Speaking of which, Du Yang's promotion during this period was indeed very fast, especially from the perspective of people in his company. From a small employee, he directly became a department head, and then was promoted to deputy director. Now with Chang Feng giving him
With the shares, and the recommendation of Chang Feng's second brother, he can immediately remove the subtitle and become a real director, with the status of the board of directors.
This speed is definitely rocket-level.
Chang Feng had arranged everything, and Gu Zheng didn't object. He directly contacted Emei and asked Ouyang Hai to come. After all, Ouyang Hai wanted to harvest Chang Feng. If Ouyang Hai didn't like Chang Feng, Gu Zheng could only
Teach him yourself.
Ouyang Hai arrived very quickly. After learning Gu Zheng's intention, without saying a word, he flew into the sky with Chang Feng, directly entered the sea from the air, and ran around in the sea again.
After one lap, Chang Feng's eyes were straightened and his legs were trembling.
He wanted to learn Gu Wu from Gu Zheng before. He thought he would be a real master of the inner martial arts after he succeeded in practicing, but he didn't expect that Gu Zheng gave him another shock. There was a real immortal beside Gu Zheng, Feitian Eun.
The immortal of earth.
"The performance is okay, but now I can only register by name. Whether he can become my true disciple depends on his destiny!"
I can't say that I am truly satisfied with Chang Feng and Ouyang Hai, nor am I disgusted with him. Now that Gu Zheng has said it, he will not refuse. It's just that it's not easy to become his true disciple, and he still has to go through a test.
For a cultivator like Ouyang Hai, the relationship between master and disciple is no less than that between father and son. Even if he is introduced by Gu Zheng, he will be extremely cautious.
Chang Feng followed Ouyang Hai to Emei. For him, he opened the door to a new world.
In Emei, he finally knew that immortals really existed. Although there are very few in number now, they still exist. In addition, his previous idea was also correct. There were indeed many ancient martial arts practitioners, and the ultimate goal of these ancient martial arts practitioners was
That is becoming an immortal.
The master Gu Zheng found for him was a real immortal, and a very powerful immortal. He was also a veteran immortal who had lived for thousands of years.
This result surprised him and made him very excited at the same time. After arriving in Emei, he worked hard no matter what he did. He wanted to get Ouyang Hai's recognition as soon as possible, get rid of the name as soon as possible, and become Ouyang Hai's true disciple.
Chang Feng can adapt to the life in Emei, which finally makes Gu Zheng feel relieved. Although Chang Feng has not yet taken the marrow cleansing diet and started practicing, being able to adapt is the best start. At least he can learn some basics.
Ability.
"Boss, you are here!"
When Gu Zheng came to the store, Gao Changhe immediately greeted him. Recently, Gao Changhe has become more and more energetic. Every time he calls the master to express his condolences, he expresses his gratitude.
Before Chang Feng left, he solved the housing problem for him and the store manager, and actually assigned him a room much earlier than promised. Although it was only a two-bedroom house, about the same size as his dormitory, after all, it was
The house that truly belongs to him is no longer in the company.
Moreover, the house is nearby, not far from the store. This is a prosperous area in the city center. The price of the house here can be said to be the highest in the entire Shanghai. In the past, it was a 'luxury house' that he would never dare to imagine.
In such a short period of time, he owned such a 'mansion' in Shanghai.
It is not an exaggeration to call it a 'luxury house'. If Gao Changhe sells this house and returns to his hometown of Bianjing, it will be more than enough to buy a villa.
With the house, they have truly settled in Shanghai. In addition, Chang Feng also raised their wages before leaving. He has really done a lot better than before. He is very grateful to Gu who gave him all this.
Both Zheng and Chang Feng were very grateful, and they were even more grateful to the master who introduced them and allowed them to have this opportunity.
"How's the store going?"
Gu Zheng asked casually. In fact, there was nothing going on in the store, but Chang Feng would not come again in the future. Although Chang Feng's shares were now in Chang Le's hands, according to Chang Le's temperament, I'm afraid he wouldn't come as often.
many.
"Fortunately, everything goes well, but occasionally customers complain that they no longer have the chicken blood soup you made by yourself!"
Gao Changhe grinned. Gu Zheng had been in the store recently. The chicken blood soup that he personally made and sold for 888 has been removed. Indeed, many old customers have complained about this.
Especially those who want to get therapeutic effects. Everyone knows that chicken blood soup has therapeutic effects. However, the therapeutic effects of chicken blood soup made by Gu Zheng are better and more obvious. Without the chicken blood soup made by Gu Zheng,
Although blood soup and ordinary chicken blood soup are also effective, the effect is far inferior.
"Okay, I'll do it today!"
Gu Zheng looked at this familiar kitchen and suddenly said something. Gao Changhe was stunned for a moment, and then nodded excitedly.
He personally prepared things for Gu Zheng and notified the store manager that the chicken blood soup made by Gu Zheng would definitely not be the same price as the ordinary chicken blood soup in the store. He had to inform outside customers in advance and accept reservations.
Gu Zheng had already prepared a lot of various ingredients such as fairy chicken, and he brought these things back for any reason.
Nowadays, Gu Zheng's strength has increased, and his cooking skills have also improved. In addition, all the raw materials have been reduced to the lowest ordinary level. The current chicken blood soup tastes much better than before.
Moreover, the chicken blood soup made by Gu Zheng himself has another unique feature, that is, the rich fragrance can spread far and wide. This is something Gao Changhe and anyone else cannot compare with. As long as such a fragrance spreads, understand
Everyone knows that this must have been made by Gu Zheng himself.
The fragrance that had disappeared for more than half a year reappeared, and many people around were sniffing their noses. Many people living nearby and business owners knew that the most famous chef of Guji Chicken Blood Soup was back, and only he could cook it well.
This chicken blood soup tastes like this.
Some tourists and people who were new to the area were not sure, and when they asked about it, they all looked surprised.
Ten portions of chicken blood soup made by Gu Zheng himself, each portion was still 888. Before Gu Zheng started making it, they had all been ordered.
This is not because there used to be a lot of regular customers outside, but because the store manager announced that this was the blood soup made by Gu Zheng himself. Today's Gu Zheng is no longer the unknown person before, but now he is a national gastronomic contestant.
The new champion.
In the past, he had the title of champion of the Hangzhou Food Competition, but after all, that competition was new and provincial, and its influence was far from being comparable to that of the National Food Competition. The champion of the National Food Competition could not create any dish.
The dishes are all worth the price. There are not many people who want to taste the craftsmanship of the national food competition champion chef.
There was once a national food competition champion who publicly auctioned a table of dishes he cooked, and the result was a high price of 280,000 yuan.
This was more than ten years ago. At that time, prices were not so high, and the influence of the champion was not as great as it was in ancient times. Nowadays, people's lives are getting better and better, and their pursuit of food is getting higher and higher. Really
The delicacies made by good chefs are always being competed for.
Eight hundred and eighty-eight servings, not to mention chicken blood soup, even the noodle soup made by Gu Zheng, there are people who want it.
Gu Zheng was somewhat surprised that Shifen was bought by someone so quickly. He still underestimated his influence. Someone had already made a reservation. Next, Gu Zheng would cook this delicacy himself.
Chicken blood soup can be said to be the food that Gu Zheng has cooked the most. He is familiar with it, and soon the strong aroma spreads out again.
This time, the fragrance that spreads out is no longer eight miles away, but ten miles away. It really spreads for ten miles. Although ten miles is only five thousand meters, this five thousand meters is a radius, and the diameter is a full ten thousand meters.
In the city, a diameter of 10,000 meters covers a huge area.
Countless people have smelled this fragrance. Those who are close to it are okay, at least they know what is going on. Those who are far away do not know, but they have experienced the feeling of those who only smelled it and did not know what it was.
, some foodies are even searching like crazy, and some smart people are asking online.
Slowly, Gu Zheng finished the pot of chicken blood soup and was quickly brought out by Gao Changhe himself.
No one who bought these ten portions of chicken blood soup was disappointed. It is indeed the handiwork of the number one famous chef in the country. Everyone who has eaten it said that it is the best food they have ever eaten in their lives.
It is all ordinary-level ingredients, and Gu Zheng, the immortal chef, made it himself. If such delicacies cannot conquer the taste buds of ordinary people, he, the immortal chef, will not have to work anymore. Without the use of weapons and spirits, Master Tiexian may not be able to bear it.
Fire this apprentice.
"Has anything happened recently?"
After making chicken blood soup, Gu Zheng asked casually. Although he was not here, the kitchen was always under his control. Chang Feng did not interfere with the kitchen affairs when he was here, giving Gao Changhe great autonomy.
The reason why Chang Feng had ignored the previous affairs of Tongzi Chicken was partly due to this. As long as they did not really affect the interests of the store, he would wait until Gu Zheng came back to talk about the kitchen affairs.
Although the bucket chicken is purchased from outside, it is also a kitchen issue.
"There's nothing else, it's just that many people can't find you and have sent some invitation letters, letters of appointment and the like here!"
When Gu Zheng asked, Gao Changhe immediately replied that during Gu Zheng's absence, countless people who wanted to take advantage of him but could not find him had no choice but to come here.
There were hundreds of various invitation letters and letters of appointment. These were the results of Gao Changhe's screening. Some unreliable things that were obviously trying to compete for popularity were all thrown away by him.
What is left behind are all truly significant things.
"Invitation from CCTV?"
Gu Zheng picked up one, looked at it casually, and immediately put it aside. It was an appointment letter from CCTV Food Channel, asking him to be a guest on a program, and be the only guest.
The salary was considerable, but now Gu Zheng was not short of money at all, and he had no interest in appearing on TV, so he put it aside.
"Invitation letter to Hangzhou Food Competition!"
Gu Zheng soon received an invitation that surprised him. The Hangzhou Food Competition was already preparing for its second session. The invitation to Gu Zheng this time was not to invite him to participate. Gu Zheng ranked first in the last competition, and again
Ranked first in the country, it is impossible to participate in such a competition again.
This time, Gu Zheng was invited to be a judge.
For the people in the organizing committee of the Hangzhou Food Competition, it was an unexpected surprise that Gu Zheng won the first place in the country before, which once again enhanced their influence. Gu Zheng had participated in a competition before, and that was their place. Such a
Come on, the first place in the Hangzhou Food Competition was the same as the first place in the country. Others would also look up to the Hangzhou Food Competition.
This competition will be held in three months, and the organizing committee wants to take advantage of the popularity of guzheng and invite him to be the judge for this session, and the final judge.
"Boss, the Hangzhou Food Competition is pretty good. I heard that they will continue auditions this year, but the direct selection contestants have added many heavyweight celebrity chefs. It will definitely be better this year!"
Seeing that Gu Zheng had been holding the invitation letter, Gao Changhe whispered to the side. After all, Gu Zheng was famous in the Hangzhou Food Competition. After the invitation came, Gao Changhe paid attention to the people in Hangzhou.
side things.
“We’ll talk about this later!”
Gu Zheng neither refused nor agreed. He just put the invitation aside and continued to look at other things.
Many of them were invitations from famous domestic food festivals, and more than a dozen were from various international invitations. There were also invitations from Michelin. Most of these invitations were put aside by him, and only one was retained by him.
In hand.
This is an invitation from France. It is for Gu Zheng to participate in a food festival in half a month. He has just arrived.
Gu Zheng went to Shushan and was busy with other things, so he didn't come back during the New Year. According to his plan, he planned to visit his father in France during the Chinese New Year last year and taste French delicacies, but he was delayed.
Speaking of which, he and his father have not seen each other for two years. As the saying goes, wealth does not return to its hometown like a brocade walking at night. Now that he has wealth and fame, he always wants to be recognized.
The recognition of ordinary people is not important. His family is in Shanghai and he doesn't have many acquaintances. There is no point in being here. What he wants most is to visit his father and at least let him know that his son is already better than others.
Although Gu Zheng is a cultivator of immortality, he has not been cultivating immortality for a long time, so these tacky things in his heart cannot be avoided.
"This invitation was sent directly from them. I verified it and it is genuine. Moreover, it is the largest food festival in France, so I kept it!"
Seeing Gu Zheng thinking deeply while holding the invitation letter, Gao Changhe hurriedly introduced, France is also a famous country in the food industry, and this food festival is the largest and most grand one in France. This can be regarded as a weighty invitation.
Gao Changhe would usually investigate invitations like this to see if someone was deliberately pretending to be one, or it was just a small event that was deliberately made big, and he only stayed after verifying that everything was true.
"Okay, thank you, Master Gao. I'll take these with you and return the others!"
Gu Zheng nodded and was the first to take away the invitation letter from the French Food Festival. In addition, he kept the invitations for the Hangzhou Food Competition and several other events. The rest were obviously rejected.
