Li Zeyu looked at the chopsticks in Shen Dapeng's hand, then turned to look at the store, with a trace of doubt in his eyes. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test
"Brother Peng, what do you want to say?"
Seeing Li Zeyu's confused look, Shen Dapeng put down his chopsticks and said, "Big head, what you see is just the surface. Look, how much rent does such a big store cost in a year in a place like Beijing?
"
"Didn't you say that during the SARS period, rents in many places in Beijing have dropped?"
As soon as Shen Dapeng said something, Li Zeyu interrupted.
Shen Dapeng smiled noncommittally and knocked on the table, "That's true. The rent in some places has indeed dropped, but you have to understand that this is the capital, not our Qingshu County. Although the rent has dropped a bit compared to before SARS.
, but the difference is not very big. The rent for the same store is still much higher than that in Qingshu County."
Li Zeyu took a breath when he heard this, and then smiled slightly.
"besides……"
Shen Dapeng pointed to the waiters who were busy serving food between the dining tables, "The wages of employees are also a big expense. Each waiter's monthly salary is at least a thousand yuan, and the waiters in our Qingshu County restaurant earn
How much is the salary? Four to five hundred yuan is enough, right?"
Sun Dapao next to him nodded, "Absolutely, at this level. According to this, the salary expenses for a dozen waiters in this hot pot restaurant are tens of thousands of yuan a month. With a big head, plus the rent, you have to live in the capital.
You really have to think carefully about opening a hotpot restaurant."
Shen Dapeng's words are not unreasonable. Xiaohetang Hotpot has a secret recipe and is delicious, so it can attract customers, but doing business involves costs.
If you do not consider the actual situation, do not even have a minimum budget, and blindly open a store, you may not only fail to make money, but also lose money.
There is a saying that goes well, never fight an unprepared battle.
It's a good thing that Li Zeyu is motivated, but Shen Dapeng is really not optimistic about this ill-considered approach of blindly rushing forward.
Even Sun Dapao, who rarely used his brain and only knew how to fight and kill, nodded in agreement after hearing Shen Dapeng's words, and then looked at Li Zeyu with some concern.
Li Zeyu picked up a piece of fish bone and ate it deliciously, as if he had not heard what Shen Dapeng and Sun Dapao said, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Seeing Li Zeyu's unmoved look, Shen Dapeng couldn't help but smile and said: "Big head, look at you like this, you don't seem to care about this at all?"
"Haha, these expenses that Brother Peng mentioned are normal, and you have to pay for them. But I think that as long as the hot pot tastes good, has a selling point, and can attract more customers, these won't be a problem."
Not a problem?
Shen Dapeng was stunned and couldn't help but frowned.
Li Zeyu's idea is correct. Xiaohetang hotpot can become popular in Qingshu County and it will definitely create a niche in the capital. There is no problem with this.
But the problem now is that the whole country is under the terror of SARS, especially in Beijing and Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Many local communities and schools are closed, and people are unwilling to go out even if they stay at home.
Like Li Zeyu said, how to attract more customers?
"Big Head, you are so determined!"
Sun Dapao shook his head disdainfully, "It's better to listen to Brother Peng's advice. At this time, there are very few people traveling. If you open this hot pot restaurant, you will lose money."
At this time, Li Zeyu finished the last bite of meat, licked his tongue with unsatisfied intention, then wiped his mouth, and then looked towards Shen Dapeng and Sun Dapao.
"Brother Peng, Brother Pao, I, Li Zeyu, never fight an unprepared battle. This time I come to the capital, I am fully prepared."
Shen Dapeng narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Li Zeyu in disbelief, and laughed a little, "Big head, looking at your posture, it seems that you are well prepared. So tell me, how are you fully prepared?"
Li Zeyu laughed and said: "Isn't it SARS now? I just want to seize the opportunity of SARS and create a new selling point in Xiaohetang Hotpot!"
Have new ideas?
Shen Dapeng nodded slightly and motioned for Li Zeyu to continue.
"Xiaohetang hot pot follows the route of traditional hot pot, focusing on deliciousness and nutrition, right?" Li Zeyu looked at Shen Dapeng, "Didn't my aunt study traditional Chinese medicine drinks some time ago? I got some inspiration and thought I could experiment with hot pot as well.
one time."
"What? Big head, you want to put Chinese medicine in the hot pot? Well, isn't that going to make people miserable? Okay, okay, get rid of it quickly, your creativity is quite weird."
When Sun Dapao heard Li Zeyu's idea, his eyes widened and he waved his hand with a look of disgust, "If we create such a hot pot, there will definitely not be a single customer coming to the door within three days!"
"Brother Pao, listen to what I have to say. Nowadays, people pay attention to health preservation and health. I do this firstly to attract attention, and secondly, to cater to people's current concept of pursuing health..."
"Don't tell me this. I, Sun Dapao, don't understand this? I eat hot pot just to taste the unique spicy and delicious flavor. If I add bitter Chinese medicine, what will happen? Tell me.
, what did that become?”
Before Li Zeyu finished speaking, he was impatiently interrupted by Sun Dapao. Seeing Sun Dapao's disgusted look, Li Zeyu could only smile a few times and shook his head noncommittally.
On the opposite side, Shen Dapeng's attitude was different from that of Sun Dapao. When he heard Li Zeyu talking about this idea, his eyes lit up and his mind started to spin rapidly.
He and his aunt discussed producing medicinal drinks before, in order to promote the company and to resist everyone's resistance.
Li Zeyu is now ingenious. It is not easy to come up with this idea, which is refreshing.
"Big Paozi, don't talk, let's first listen to what Big Head wants to do..."
Shen Dapeng looked at Li Zeyu with a smile, "The combination of hot pot and Chinese medicine is indeed a bit novel, but as Dapaozi said, the taste of Chinese medicine..."
"Haha, I have thought of this a long time ago. Traditional Chinese medicine is a cultural treasure of our country. It has a splendid culture that spans thousands of years. It has been used since ancient times in our country..."
Li Zeyu began to talk eloquently.
"Oh my god, are you going to give a lecture? Just stop it and tell me what you want to do."
Just as Li Zeyu stood up, Sun Dapao started shouting impatiently again.
"Big head, I know all this, otherwise I wouldn't be developing medicinal products. Just tell me how to combine this traditional Chinese medicine with hot pot..."
Shen Dapeng couldn't help but frown.
This Li Zeyu, if you give him some color, he can probably open a dyeing workshop.
"Okay, this is what I think. This is not the time of SARS. Several Chinese medicines that can enhance the body's resistance can be reasonably mixed into small Chinese medicine bags. Of course, the amount can be appropriately reduced, otherwise it would not be hot pot.
