Xi Dongyang was startled, and couldn't help but look at Tongdao Xu twice, and then smiled, "Okay! Thanks!"
It can be seen that his mood has improved a lot.
Comrade Xu was in a good mood to see him happy.
A small favor can make others have a better impression of him. If things go on like this, Xi Dongyang will definitely think that he, Tongdao Xu, is a very good person.
Once this impression is formed, when encountering major issues in the future, such as shares, profit sharing, etc., will Xi Dongyang still have the nerve to compete with him?
Catch the big and let go the small!
This was the principle that Xu Tongdao had in mind when he decided to partner with Xi Dongyang.
For small money, give more to Xi Dongyang.
Finally, strive for big money and get it all back at once.
As for why you don’t treat Xi Dongyang with sincerity? Try to become a real good brother with Xi Dongyang?
Tongdao Xu felt it was not necessary.
Since we are partners, let's be pure and don't make things so complicated. Just be superficial brothers. The most important thing is interests!
He came to this county to set up a stall just to make money, not to make friends.
He himself has no shortage of brothers. He has Xu Tonglu as his biological brother, Xu Tonglin as his biological brother, and a lot of cousins. So, why should he make friends at the age when he should be making money?
Just like many of his peers who he knew before, they chose to find a girlfriend and fall in love at an age when they should be struggling to make money.
Although Xu Tongdao was quite envious at the time, as he grew older, his reason told him that such a love was destined to end in tragedy almost from the beginning.
Because as a girl gets older, her requirements and desires for material life will become higher and higher, but her boyfriend, who has neglected his career, cannot suddenly earn a large amount of money to fulfill her wishes.
Men have no choice, but there are many choices before girls. As long as she changes to a boyfriend, a boyfriend with better conditions, she can be satisfied with the material life she wants.
Let me ask: How many young women can withstand such temptation?
Comrade Xu remembers that several colleagues and friends were in that situation. After being kicked by their girlfriends, they drank to drown their sorrows and complained about others. When they were drunk, they yelled at women for being unkind and unjust, for hating the poor and loving the rich...
But what’s the point?
It's all too late.
…
While Tongdao Xu was thinking about these things in his mind, reminding himself to be rational and not forget his original intention - to focus on making money, he skillfully turned the skewers in his hand.
After these days of practice, his barbecue skills are much more proficient than when he first started.
Before the mutton skewers in his hand were cooked, two more diners, a man and a woman, stopped in front of his oven. Tongdao Xu showed a smile and was about to say hello when the man in front of the oven spoke first, "Hi!
Yoko! What is going on with you tonight? Where is your own barbecue stall? Why are you here to help?"
have to!
He is also an old acquaintance and customer from Xi Dongyang.
Xu Tongdao laughed dumbly. His mood did not become depressed, but he was very happy. In his opinion, the more regular customers in Dongyang, the better.
Anyway, Comrade Xu can share 60% of the money earned in the end.
And he didn’t need to bother to say hello, no! Xi Dongyang, who was on the other side of the display cabinet, heard someone talking to him again, and immediately came over to greet him with a smile.
It can be seen that he is usually a serious person. Xu Tongdao remembers that when he was setting up a stall in Dongyang, he never smiled.
At that time, it was his sister Xi Xiaoqian who greeted the guests.
But now that Xi Dongyang has partnered with him, he has to always smile and greet his former customers and friends.
Looking at the stiff smile on his face, Tongdao Xu wanted to laugh a little.
time flies.
Xu Tongdao has more and more customers here. Some are old customers from Xi Dongyang, some are old customers from him and Xu Tonglin, and some are new customers who come here because of their reputation.
In addition, some passers-by were attracted here.
There are many strange phenomena in the catering industry.
For example, if the store is too large and the decoration is too high-end, many diners will not dare to enter.
However, large-scale street stalls are completely opposite and can easily attract more diners.
This phenomenon is very strange. If you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to understand.
A restaurant with a store that is too big and too high-end will make customers worry that the consumption level inside is also high. They may even be embarrassed to eat in such a high-end restaurant because they are not dressed decently at the time.
But street stalls are different.
When seeing a large-scale street stall, few people will worry that they cannot afford to spend money, let alone feel that their clothes are not decent enough and are not worthy of the grade of the street stall.
Not only that, when most people see a large-scale street stall, they will subconsciously think: If this stall can be so big, the food must be delicious and the price should not be very expensive.
These two diametrically opposed psychologies are subtle, but universal.
This has also led to many large-scale, beautifully decorated hotels often going bankrupt due to continued losses, while those large-scale street stalls can often make a huge profit every day.
Anyway, Comrade Xu’s personal experience tonight is that there was a steady stream of diners tonight, and the guests came like clouds, and it didn’t take long for all the dozens of tables in his place to be filled.
When he heard the new guests asking if there were any tables, he also heard Xi Xiaoqian's apologetic voice saying: "I'm sorry, brothers, our place is full for the time being. How about you wait a moment?"
"There is a table over there that is almost ready. As soon as they finish eating, I will go and help you clear the table..." At this time, Comrade Xu looked back subconsciously.
Only then did he realize that the tables behind him were all occupied.
It fills up faster every night than it has these days.
Then, he subconsciously looked at the two stalls of Bald Zhang and Fatty Lu.
As a result, I saw Bald Zhang standing in front of the oven, looking at the crowd in their place with a dark face. There were not a single customer on the tables behind Bald Zhang, and the tabletops were as clean as Bald Zhang's scalp.
The situation at Fatty Lu's place is not much better. There are only two tables of guests at this time, and most of the tables are still empty.
——How about going to their place and borrowing some tables?
This thought flashed through Xu Tongdao's mind uncontrollably. As the thought flashed through his mind, Xu Tongdao couldn't help but laugh. He thought: You can't go too far in life. You can't do this if you don't slap someone in the face.
What's the most annoying thing?
As time goes by, more and more diners are queuing up at Tongdao Xu's side. These diners can obviously see that there are a lot of empty tables at Bald Zhang and Fatty Lu, but few people go to those two stalls to eat barbecue.
.
Noticing this phenomenon, Comrade Xu actually felt a little sympathetic to Bald Zhang and Fatty Lu.
But as he sympathized, the smile on his lips became more and more obvious.
Because he heard those who were waiting in line talking.
"Hey, hubby, there are a lot of empty tables over there, how about we go there to eat?"
"Hey! Are you stupid? You see there are so many people here, it's packed, the business is so good, the food must be delicious, there must be a reason why no one goes there!"
"Oh, it seems so!"
“I’ve eaten at both of those places, and the food is definitely not as delicious as here!”
