Chapter 461 About the preliminary planning of the restaurant
Two days later.
Lin Zhen made another call to Xiangjiang.
In addition to sending greetings to my father-in-law and mother-in-law, the most important thing is of course to report on the current reopening situation.
as well as.
Want money.
Lin Zhen has slowly let go of his hands and feet.
Now is the time when he is most short of funds.
Xiangjiang's father-in-law has a lot of shares there, 30% of them.
Little Dragon and Little Phoenix had millions before they were born.
Now more than ten years have passed, during the years when Lou Bancheng was based in Xiangjiang and entered Nanyang, the assets of the Lou family have increased nearly ten times.
The parts of Lin Zhen and Lou Xiao'e also number in the tens of millions.
It's just that it has just been opened, and it is not very convenient to transfer large amounts.
Lin Zhen was unwilling to sell his collection, so he could only ask his father-in-law for it.
Lou Bancheng said nothing this time and immediately transferred another 500,000 to Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen used part of the money to build a factory and part of it to open a Bacuilou branch in Jinmen.
Let MCA take Guan Canghai and Guan Dongqing from the royal chef family to run the business.
At the Bacuilou in the capital, He Daqing was in charge of the kitchen.
Guan Canghai and Guan Dongqing were gifts given to Lin Zhen by accident from Deputy Factory Director Li.
At first, they regarded their ancestors as imperial chefs and looked down upon Lin Zhen, the master and apprentice of Ye Luzi.
After failing in the competition, he had no choice but to work in the back kitchen of Bac Cui House. As a result, he was shocked by MCA's cooking skills time and time again.
Lin Zhen occasionally came to show off his skills. It was more like monks seeing the manifestation of the Three Pure Ones, as if they were seeing the founder Yi Yin Linfan.
The father and son had long since lost any trace of their arrogance, and instead wanted to become Lin Zhen's disciples several times.
Lin Zhen was naturally happy to accept their surrender.
After all, apart from being high-minded and arrogant at the beginning, they have not done anything immoral.
And he has a bit of backbone, and he doesn’t bother to cheat and tell the news in advance during the competition.
It's okay to surrender, but they're not very good at accepting disciples.
In the end, the Guan family and his son did not want any salary at all. They could not live in Bacui Building all day long and had to do the dirty work.
Finally, Lin Zhen, who was willing to take the easy way out but not the hard way, was entangled by them and had no choice but to do anything.
He reluctantly accepted Guan Dongqing as an outer disciple in cooking, and asked Ma Hua to teach him some cooking skills instead.
This time I went to Jinmen to open a branch to test Guan Dongqing's loyalty.
If he is really a useful talent, let him serve as the back cook of Bacuilou in Jinmen from now on.
Then he went to Suzhou, Hangzhou, Guangdong and other places to develop.
Lin Zhen wants to open Bacui Tower across the country as a gift to his little daughter.
This time going to Jinmen, Lin Zhen planned to take Liu Yuhua, Ma Hua, Guan Canghai and Guan Dongqing.
A group of five people went to explore the road first and meet the most famous local restaurant chef.
It wasn't that Lin Zhen was afraid of local restaurants, but that he was worldly.
It is said that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. In fact, it does not mean that it cannot be crushed in terms of strength, but it is not necessary.
If the vital interests of Qianglong are really endangered, not to mention the local snake, even Bashan Tiger Yihailong, Qianglong will be destroyed by it.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a strong dragon.
It's like Confucius entering the Ancestral Temple and asking questions about everything.
It’s not that Confucius didn’t understand the etiquette of offering sacrifices in the Imperial Ancestral Temple. On the contrary, he knew it better than anyone else, and every question was based on his respectful and humble etiquette.
Harmony brings wealth, not war.
Lin Zhen has no clone skills.
If you want to open Bacuilou all over the country, you have to follow some old principles and maybe recruit a few capable cooks. Why not?
After MCA heard about Lin Zhen's idea of opening Bacuilou all over the country, he was so excited that he almost got excited.
"Teacher, master, that, that, that, that, I will let Yuhui and her children move to Jinmen first, and rent a house to live in first."
Lin Zhen smiled and said: "Whatever, I won't let you stay in Jinmen for too long anyway. After the new store can be officially opened, I will hand it over to Dongqing. During this period, you can just guide him and test him."
.”
Ma Hua asked: "Then I will return to the Bacuilou main store then?"
"The third branch will be opened by then. You, the head chef, will patrol the country for me and recruit more disciples!"
thump!
Ma Hua was so moved that he knelt down directly to Lin Zhen.
"Master! I will definitely live up to your high expectations and will definitely promote your amazing cooking skills!"
Lin Zhen waved his hand and said with a smile: "Get up, after arranging you, I still have to let Antang set up the fight club. From now on, whether it is KFC or UFC, we have to... forget it, there is Ye Qi, ugh...
...I'm too busy, and the antiques Xu Damao collected for me haven't had time to move."
"Uh...Master, you said something weird again."
"Okay, okay, hurry up and tell the Guan family to prepare to go. We will set off the day after tomorrow!"
Antiques come to mind.
Lin Zhen was really a little anxious.
Those things are stored in the cellar under my bed.
Except for the few years when the situation was tense and Lin Zhen did not let Xu Damao collect it, Xu Damao could collect one or two precious things every month during the rest of the time.
When Lin Zhen encountered a rare treasure, he won it without hesitation.
Therefore, his collection has no less than a hundred pieces.
The one that can be put into the cellar under his bed is worth tens of thousands at least, which is still the current price. If it is kept for more than ten years, it will be even more difficult to estimate.
It took less than half a year for the situation to change. Lin Zhen was busy resigning and taking over the job, then he was busy opening a restaurant to test the waters, and then he was acquiring land to build a factory.
There really is no time to spare.
Now that I think about it, I will be busier and busier in the future. If I delay it any longer, I don’t know if it will be postponed until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse.
It would be better to build a sturdy building after this trip to Tianjin, just to store the antique collection.
We can't delay it any longer. Before it's 80 years, we should let Xu Damao continue to collect antiques for him for a while.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhen immediately went to find Liu Guangtian.
Ask him to add a three-story building to the construction plan, which cannot be smaller than the Bacui Building. Buy the materials first, and the address will be announced in two days.
Liu Guangtian immediately agreed.
But he was a little confused and said: "Brother Lin, you are building a factory and opening a restaurant branch. Do you have enough funds? Why build another building? Why don't you buy one or rent one?"
Lin Zhen said: "Don't worry about funds. I have a lot of old buildings in Xiangjiang. They are all old buildings to rent or buy. I don't think they are strong. This three-story building was built with the strongest construction, made of pure steel bars and cement.
Not a single red brick is needed.”
Nowadays, most buildings built in China are made of red bricks, and there are not many pure concrete ones.
Therefore, residential buildings are not too high, generally 4 to 5 stories.
The top is built with 7 floors.
Lin Zhen's three-story single-family building is made of pure reinforced concrete. It is really too luxurious.
Liu Guangtian was speechless and said: "Brother Lin, is it too luxurious? Isn't a three-story building necessary?"
"Hey, you won't think so when you see what I put inside. The single-layer area is not less than 2,000 square meters. How to build it will be designed by me. I will give you the drawings tomorrow morning."
"Ah?!!! How big of an office building do you want to build?"
"It's not an office building. Just wait for my drawings."
After making arrangements for Ma Hua and Liu Guangtian, Lin Zhen returned home and designed the layout of a three-story building in a short time.
From now on, it will be your own private collection, where all the precious items collected will be placed.
As for the address, Lin Zhen thought about it and decided to put it not far from the courtyard.
If there are any old office buildings nearby that need to be sold out, buy them and rebuild them directly.
Or buying a piece of land from the demolition site of an old apartment building as a commercial building. Of course, these things will have to trouble the retired leaders.
Early the next morning, Lin Zhen gave the drawings to Liu Guangtian and asked him to specify the purchasing plan first.
Then one person went to find the big leader.
They had just left the courtyard not long ago.
Lei Datou came to the courtyard.
As soon as I walked in, I checked at Lin Zhen's house, but there was no one there.
I felt a little bolder without realizing it.
He turned around and walked through the hall door to Jia's house.
Only Tao Xiurong and three children are at home in the Jia family.
Tao Xiurong is doing some handicrafts to support her family.
Qin Huairu, Xiaodang and Huaihua all went to work.
In the entire middle courtyard, only Aunt No. 1 from Donghu is at home.
Seeing Lei Datou coming to the door, Tao Xiurong was a little flustered and said, "What are you doing here?"
Lei Datou smiled and said: "Brothers and sisters, where is sister Huaihua?"
The smart Tao Xiurong thought for a moment and immediately understood Lei Datou's intention.
He smiled slightly and said: "Brother Lei, my sister has gone to work, so you don't have to worry about her anymore. I'm afraid you are not from the same world. The day before yesterday, she said she was scared to death by you and she didn't even eat much dinner."
Lei Datou frowned and said, "Isn't that right? I tried to break up the fight last time and didn't say a single harsh word?"
"Sigh... That's not a matter of not saying harsh words. You stopped here and scared my Sophora japonica girl. She is a weak little girl, and you are a fierce and vicious Taoist god. Do you think it's appropriate?
?”
Lei Datou frowned and thought for a while.
Suddenly he turned his smile and said: "Since you already know what I want to do, let's not beat around the bush. Although I look rough and crazy, I am actually very infatuated. From now on, I will not marry anyone other than Sophora japonica. I will change my mind now."
Just call me sister-in-law. Sister-in-law, can you give me a nice word?"
Tao Xiurong smiled disdainfully: "I am not a matchmaker, and I can't get any benefits from you. Sophora japonica will not agree to marry you, so just save it. By the way, you are not just here to find Sophora japonica, right? You are a
People who want to save face will not be so direct."
Although Tao Xiurong declined politely, her address changed from "you" to "you" and her attitude became disdainful.
Apparently she accepted Lei Datou calling her sister-in-law.
If you refuse, you will have a fishing tone, otherwise you will just send the guest away.
Lei Datou has been a scoundrel who has been in the market since he was a child, so of course he heard it right away.
He immediately pulled up a chair and sat down, smiling and saying: "Sister-in-law, you are really right, I am here to report on the whereabouts of Bangge."
"What? You found him?"
Lei Datou shook his head, "If we can find it, it will be the police who will notify you, not me. I have contacted all my acquaintances in the past two days. Bangge did not go to them, but I have said hello. If you go,
, just hold on tight and call me immediately."
Tao Xiurong thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I guess your greeting was in vain. He won't expose himself."
Lei Datou smiled and said: "I don't care about this. Anyway, I said hello. I will come back to report his whereabouts in a few days. Sister-in-law, I leave the matter of Sophora japonica to you. I will come back in a few days."
Tao Xiurong frowned and said: "If you have this skill, you might as well help the Jia family tide over the difficulties. It will be much better than your courtesy."
"Get through the difficulties? Hehe, that can only be considered after I am the son-in-law of the Jia family. Of course, if you have any personal difficulties, I may be able to help. I, Lei Datou, have more money and friends, but I will never be taken advantage of.
.”
Tao Xiurong rolled her eyes and immediately asked: "I have been married to Banggan for almost half a year. My and my three children's household registrations have not been moved to the capital yet. There is no reply when I submit the application. Can you help me with this? If you can,
Sophora japonica and my mother-in-law, I will try my best to help you!"
