Of course, we can't start a fight. After all, Gu Yi hasn't been fooling around all these years. There must be a reason why he dares to guarantee that these merchants will sell until the Spring Festival.
The person who contracted the fur city was an elder brother from Jining. Although he was not familiar with Gu Yi, he still gave him a bit of respect. In addition, the elder brothers now began to develop in business and had more or less connections with government departments. Through
The government is a bridge where everyone knows each other. As the saying goes, don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face. Although Sun Yucong did not come forward directly, Gu Yi came to represent the Chamber of Commerce and Sun Yucong.
No matter how powerful Brother Jining is, he still has to give him face. He scolded the person who caused the trouble a few times on the phone, and the group of people outside the door dispersed.
The matter has been resolved, Gu Yi and the other two stopped staying. He and Sixth Brother said goodbye to several merchants and left the fur city.
The three of them felt that they had not been in there for long, but in fact, more than two hours had passed before they knew it. When they saw that it was already past one in the afternoon, they hurriedly drove to West Street.
Unluckily, we met someone who was in a car accident. The originally narrow road was blocked by the scene of the car accident, and no one could pass. There was no way to turn around and take a detour. It was almost three o'clock when we got there, and half of the street was full of shops selling haggis.
There is a lunch break and no one is open.
The three of them were annoyed and had to drive slowly along the street to search, hoping to find a business - they were all hungry, so they didn't have to eat haggis.
Suddenly, Lao Tan saw a dumpling restaurant not far away. What attracted him was not the dumplings, but the name of the restaurant - "Aqiao Dumpling House".
Gu Yi also saw it.
"Ah Qiao Dumpling House? Brother Tan, your branch." Of course Gu Yi knew it was not Lao Tan's branch, and there was a hint of joking in his words.
"This is not an imitation." Lao Tan said.
It is indeed an imitation. The store is not big, about one hundred square meters, and it is not decorated much. It just says "Ah Qiao Dumpling House" on the plaque.
Now that they met, Lao Tan no longer wanted to eat haggis and wanted to go in and see what happened.
The three people parked the car and walked into the dumpling restaurant.
After entering, Gu Yi smiled first, followed by Lao Tan.
It is said to be a dumpling restaurant, but it is actually a snack bar. It was renovated into a house with three bedrooms and two living rooms. Taking advantage of the situation, the living room is used as a kitchen and the living room is used as a restaurant, which is quite harmonious. On the wall are colorful recipes and photos, all of which are stir-fried, even cold.
There are thirty kinds of hot dumplings with five kinds of fillings. They are the same as Zhen Ah Qiao, but I don’t know how they taste.
A waitress in a down jacket was sleeping in front of the heated table. The three people came in and didn't wake up. They seemed to be dreaming. However, a man wearing a chef's uniform walked out of the private room inside and glanced at the three of them.
Ask: "Are you going to eat?"
"Eat, eat dumplings." Gu Yi said.
The man walked up to the waiter, pushed it with his hand, and said, "We have a guest, are you still sleeping?"
The waiter yawned first, then opened his eyes and said "ahhhh" very unhappy.
The man invited Gu Yi and the others to sit down in the private room inside, poured hot water, and brought a menu. At this time, the waiter came in and the man walked out.
Lao Tan took a look at the menu and found that it was the same as the one on the wall. He handed it to Gu Yi and then asked the waiter: "Is your restaurant the same as the Ah Qiao Dumpling Restaurant in Hohhot?"
"No." The waiter replied simply and asked: "Is there also a Qiao Dumpling Restaurant in Hohhot?"
"Yes, and business is very good." Lao Tan said.
"Then his family is not authentic. Just like mine, they learned from others." The waiter said.
Lao Tan couldn't help but asked curiously: "How do you know his family is not authentic?"
"Ah Qiao Dumpling Restaurant is from the provincial capital. We don't have one in Inner Mongolia. The boss is my third aunt. She went to the provincial capital to see how popular the dumpling restaurant was and came back to change it." The waiter said it straight away. She wanted to know about the bald man in front of her.
He is the founder of Ah Qiao Dumplings. I don’t know what he thinks.
"Did your third aunt join?" Lao Tan asked.
"No, just change the name. My third aunt is a noodle cook and makes delicious dumplings. This used to be a dumpling restaurant," the waiter said.
So that's what happened.
Lao Tan laughed and thought about whether he should talk to the boss and tell her not to call her Aqiao. This is a violation of law. But seeing the small dumpling restaurant like this, he felt that it was unnecessary. Jining is more than a hundred miles away from Hohhot, so it was not necessary.
There is competition, and it won't affect anything. It's better to let her do it.
It's not easy to make two bucks, as long as you can get by.
The three of them ordered four dishes, two plates of dumplings, a bottle of liquor and two bottles of beer.
The food was served first, and the dumplings had to wait for a while, so the three of them drank first. Gu Yi and Zhou Yujun had to drive and drink beer, while Lao Tan drank liquor.
"His family imitates yours, so the business is not doing well." Zhou Yujun said to Lao Tan.
"It's not time to eat now, I don't know what to do." Lao Tan said.
"Actually, your family should start franchising and charge franchise fees, that would make more money." Gu Yi said.
"It's not the time yet, and I don't want to. There are pros and cons to franchising. It's about making money, but it's easy to ruin the brand. The franchisees cut corners in order to make money, and if they do it badly, the direct sales companies will also be affected, so they can't do the same." Lao Tan said.
.
"If you don't want to join, just cooperate. You provide the technology and management, the other party provides the money, and you get a 30/70 dividend," Zhou Yujun said.
"We have this plan." Lao Tan nodded and said, "The Hohhot store will be directly operated and we will cooperate with surrounding cities."
"I think it will work." Gu Yi said: "I have a friend in Baotou who owns a restaurant. I will contact him when the time comes. If he is interested, you can talk. In addition, Baotou is bigger than Hohhot, and there are many people in the Northeast, so the dumpling restaurant will definitely be good.
make."
"I have plans to develop in Baotou," Lao Tan said.
"In addition, you should also consider small counties like Jining. The income is small, but the cost here is low, labor is cheap, and the renovation is no worse than first-tier cities." Gu Yi said.
"I haven't thought about it yet. Besides, I'm just starting out, so I can't think much about it." Old Tan smiled.
As he spoke, the waiter came up with a plate of dumplings. After putting them down, he was about to leave when Gu Yi stopped him and said, "Here's some garlic sauce."
The waiter turned around and asked, "Are you from the Northeast?"
"From the Northeast." Gu Yi replied.
"I'm telling you, you Northeasterners need garlic sauce when you eat dumplings. We don't need it here. We eat it with vinegar." The waiter said.
Gu Yi smiled and said: "Local differences."
The waiter turned around and left. After a while, he brought over a small bowl of garlic sauce, which looked like it could be cut with a knife.
Lao Tan laughed and said, "Your third aunt didn't learn everything when she went to the provincial capital. The garlic sauce at Ah Qiao Dumpling House is pounded with a garlic jar. It tastes good when you dip it into the dumplings, but it doesn't cut it with a knife. It smells like soy sauce."
"I don't have a garlic jar at home, and besides, few people ask for garlic sauce, so only you Northeasterners eat it."
The words were very direct, and I felt a little choked when I heard them, but I was relieved when I saw the smile on the waiter's face - she is a girl who talks a lot but doesn't mean anything.
The dumplings are stuffed with pork and celery. They are okay and quite tasty, but the skin is a bit sticky and the flour used is not good.
"Mr. Tan, how much water does your house produce every day?" Zhou Yujun swallowed a dumpling and asked Lao Tan.
"Ten thousand, seventeen, eight." Lao Tan said.
"It's pretty good, more than 500,000 yuan a month, more than 6 million yuan a year, which is equivalent to a small enterprise." Zhou Yujun said.
He went to Ah Qiao Dumpling Restaurant to eat, and it looked very popular. He thought that ten thousand yuan a day would be too much for him, but he didn't expect it to sell for seventeen thousand yuan or eight. He was surprised and thought that working in a restaurant would be quite profitable, but it was a pity that he didn't know how to manage it.
, otherwise I would do it.
Lao Tan smiled and said: "It's all gross profit, the net profit is not high. The restaurant earns hard-earned money, and people work early in the morning to work late."
"That's not a lot." After speaking, Zhou Yujun handed Lao Tan a cigarette, lit it with a lighter, and said with a smile: "Mr. Tan, I have a cousin in my hometown. Both of them have been laid off. It's quite difficult. We have to come to Hohhot."
I’m looking for a job, could you please arrange it at your hotel?”
Before Lao Tan could say anything, Gu Yi said first: "Why do you arrange Lao Tan to do that? If you just join your company, it will be over. I can also take care of my cousin directly."
Zhou Yujun blushed slightly with embarrassment and said: "I need to know computers, but she doesn't know how to do it. She can't do it even if she goes there."
"You have to tinker with the computer, won't you arrange some other tasks? Clean up, wipe the table and pour water, just a symbolic job, how can you, a big boss, not support two people?" Gu Yi said
It was very rude, and it made Zhou Yujun unable to come to Taiwan.
Zhou Yujun had no choice but to smile and said, "You don't know what I am like. I'm just a showman. Three employees are enough. Mr. Tan is preparing to open a second store, and I guess I'll need people ------ Renjia Ben
You want me to come, right?"
His meaning is very obvious. Although he is the boss now, he has not yet become prosperous. Now that his cousin has found him, he has to help whether he can help or not.
His company really didn't need manpower, so he had to turn to Lao Tan for help. If Lao Tan could take in his cousin and his wife, it would be a great help to him.
"Did they do it in a hotel?" Lao Tan asked.
"No." Zhou Yujun shook his head and said, "My cousin worked in a textile factory before, and my brother-in-law is a fitter. Both of us are affordable people, and there is nothing wrong with their work."
"I'm tired of working in the hotel. You should tell them in advance that if you don't come, you won't be able to work, and you'll be in trouble later," Lao Tan said.
"It's okay, they are capable. Although my cousin is not a housewife, she has good looks and good temperament. She worked as a receptionist when she was in the work unit. I can arrange for her to be a waiter and get some exercise. When my place expands, I will ask her to come over and be responsible for it.
Reception." Zhou Yujun said.
"You can make arrangements and ask Lao Tan to train you. After the training is completed, you call him back. You only want to do good things." Gu Yi said sarcastically.
"I can't arrange it now," Zhou Yujun said helplessly.
Gu Yi didn't look at him and said to Lao Tan: "Brother Tan, when his cousin comes, arrange to wash the dishes in the kitchen."
Lao Tan laughed.
Just as Zhou Yujun was about to speak, a pretty woman in her thirties came over with a plate of dumplings. Needless to say, she must be the third aunt mentioned by the waiter, the owner of the dumpling restaurant.
