My Strength Does Not Allow Me to Low-key

Xiao Feng knows how well he cooks. He has been floating in the capital for many years. He often cooks and eats by himself, but his level has always been the same.

But after using mushroom powder as a seasoning for cooking, he can actually make delicious meals. He can even feel that the taste of the meals he cooks is not much worse than that of the chefs of ordinary restaurants. If a professional person uses this seasoning, he can't imagine how delicious the meal can be.

This is also the main reason why he is more determined to open a restaurant by himself. In the past, he worked in the foreign trade industry for a period of time in Beijing, doing import and export of domestic and foreign ingredients, specially for those restaurants.

At that time, he was in charge of connecting with several clients who opened restaurants in the capital. Those people invited him to dinner a lot. From the banquet, he could understand how profitable the restaurant industry was. Generally, it was half profit. Of course, the premise was that It is because your restaurant has a good reputation and is operating normally.

Now that he has access to another world, he can obtain abundant raw materials, as well as a magical nirvana like mushroom powder. He feels that if he opens a restaurant, the taste will be no problem, and he will definitely win the public's reputation. , not afraid of no customers.

But in running a restaurant, if you want to get high profits, it is not only good taste, but also more customers. After all, the first thing to consider when doing business is cost, and now many restaurant practitioners face the biggest problem. The cost is the cost of rent.

The location of a hotel is very particular. It must be opened in a place with a large flow of people and strong spending power. The rent in such a place is generally not cheap. Therefore, many hotels seem to be prosperous and well-managed, but they often fail. One year, at the end of the day, most of them are working for the landlord.

Another problem is labor. In fact, it is mainly the salary of the chef. If a restaurant wants to operate well, it must have characteristics. To put it bluntly, the taste must be outstanding, which is reflected in the ability of the chef.

And good chefs earn a monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan. If you don’t want to pay such a salary, then you can only open a public restaurant.

And with the help of this magical mushroom powder, Xiao Feng is not worried about the taste of his restaurant, as long as he finds a similar chef, it is basically enough.

But what he was worried about was that this mushroom powder was his unique secret after all, how to control the secret of mushroom powder from leaking out. After all, he is not a professional chef, and he can't stare at the back kitchen every day, so any secret of keeping this mushroom powder becomes a problem.

In addition, these chefs have to keep stealing ingredients. Basically, every big restaurant will encounter such a problem more or less, that is, the chefs manipulate ingredients. Most restaurants choose to open one eye and close one eye, but Xiao Feng This is sloppy.

And if his restaurant really does make a name for it in the future, it is inevitable that competitors will come to find out the reason, and those competitors will definitely be able to do things like bribing the chef, so how to keep it secret is also the key.

This depends on what kind of restaurant is suitable to open. If it is an ordinary public restaurant, it will be difficult to control and control. In addition, the source of this beef is not easy to explain, and it is not conducive to future expansion.

But if you open a fast food chain, it can solve a lot of problems. First of all, the chef does not need to be a master, as long as it is ordinary, even a junior chef.

The second is the supply of beef. At that time, a standardized standard supply can be formed. As long as you are a leather bag supply company outside, you will not easily reveal flaws. And this mushroom powder can also be made into a fixed seasoning package. It is provided in the form of special supply, which is also more convenient and confidential.

The most important thing is to expand and expand in the future. Once the reputation of fast food is established, it will be possible to join and attract investment nationwide.

At that time, he only needs to be a supplier in the back. For him to keep the supply of mushroom powder and beef secret, this choice is simply appropriate.

When he grows bigger and stronger in the future, he can also consider opening a special condiment company with such a big killer as mushroom powder. Maybe his future condiment company can also become the scale of a listed Kum Kee. No matter how bad it is, it can become a well-known brand like Daganma. When people find you to go public, they will directly attack those VCs and say that if I don’t have bad money, I won’t go public and cheat money.

Thinking of this, Xiao Feng is very happy, but when he thinks about the problem of the hotel venue that needs to be solved first, he feels a little overwhelmed.

In the past ten days, he has traded with Lao Wang five or six times. He even sold beef and offal to Lao Wang, earning a total of over 300,000 yuan. Before that, he earned more than 200,000 yuan from Lao Zhang. Ten thousand.

But later, I spent more than 100,000 yuan to buy a second-hand pickup truck, plus some bow and arrow weapons for the three local indigenous people, as well as some equipment such as clothing and daily necessities. There are about 400,000 left.

This has to be put on hold until more than two months ago. With such an average monthly income of 200,000 yuan, it can definitely make him crazy, and the rhythm of the annual salary of 2 million yuan is appropriate.

But now considering that he wants to open a restaurant by himself, and does not plan to work for the landlord, he plans to buy a front house by himself, and he feels a headache.

In recent years, the economic environment of Bincheng has not been very good. Even in the second-tier cities, the housing prices are not comparable to those of the top second-tier cities, but they are not cheap.

Especially for a facade room with a large enough area and a good enough location, the basic starting point must be 5 million upwards. At the current speed of making money, I am afraid that he will have to work for at least a year before he can afford a suitable facade. down payment for the room.

Thinking of this, Xiao Feng felt a little anxious. It seems that he will need to develop some more customers when he goes back. I am afraid it is not enough for a customer like Lao Wang.

However, in order to develop customer sources, he still needs to be cautious. After all, he buys beef that has not gone through the program. Although the quality is absolutely fine, it is still illegal dark meat in terms of program.

If someone catches the pigtail, it will be fined in the lightest case, and in the worst case, he will have to go to the classroom to gnaw on the wowotou, and if he gets stuck on the source of your beef, Xiao Feng can't explain it at all.

Xiao Feng shuddered at the thought that he might be caught and sliced ​​in the little black house.

Therefore, the problem of expanding customer channels is still to be cautious.

"Come on, brother!"

Looking at Xiao Feng who entered the box, Wang Chuanxi quickly got up and greeted him enthusiastically. During this period of time, the business of several of his chain stores was as booming as expected, making Old Wang happy every day.

And the reason why his promotional activities have been so successful, of course, the biggest credit goes to Xiao Feng. If he hadn't been able to provide Wang Chuanxi with sufficient quality and cheap beef and offal, his activities would not have been possible at all. Promote it.

A large number of high-quality beef and offal have been put on the shelves, coupled with the same price as before, so that most price-sensitive consumers are full of goodwill towards Lao Wang's chain stores, and when the event goes on for a long time, this goodwill It turned into spending power and loyalty, and Lao Wang's 'hot water' became the most widely circulated store name among Bincheng gluttons for a while.

Therefore, Lao Wang wants to tie Xiao Feng to his chariot firmly. Such a god of wealth must not let him run away easily. Otherwise, he will call Xiao Feng every three or five to make an appointment for dinner. Sometimes It is to discuss the business to finalize the purchase volume, and sometimes it is to invite a meal to contact the feelings.

The purpose of inviting Xiao Feng this time is also the same. First, it is to finalize tomorrow's supply, and second, it is also to bring the relationship closer.

"Brother Wang, have you waited for a long time? I'm sorry, there is a traffic jam on the road."

"It's okay, I'm usually in the store anyway, it's okay to wait a while."

This time, the place where Lao Wang invited him to eat is his own flagship store, where his business started. The first store he bought by himself was the first one. The location is good and the decoration is very high-end.

Pharaoh specially chose a box upstairs today, which is not usually open to the public, but is only for some customers who usually come to him to order meals.

After all, Lao Wang used to be the chef of a five-star hotel before, and his cooking skills are very good. Many old foodies in Bincheng are fond of his cooked meals. Those with economic strength often order private dishes to eat here.

Today, Lao Wang intends to show Xiao Feng a hand, specializing in barbecue, but the barbecue he makes is different from those who are self-service downstairs. The barbecue he makes is carefully marinated with his secret sauce. Coupled with his seasoned roasting techniques, Xiao Feng is addicted to eating.

However, Xiao Feng, who was recently spoiled by mushroom powder, stopped using his chopsticks after eating two pieces of Lao Wang's roasted meat.

"What's the matter, brother? Not to your taste?"

Lao Wang also stopped the roasted beef in his hands. He is quite confident in his craftsmanship. Today, this beef is the shoulder meat specially selected from the beef diced provided by Xiao Feng. The muscle fibers are broken, so the taste is quite soft and smooth after roasting, and with the carefully prepared seasoning, he is sure that there is no such thing as his special barbecue in Ben Thanh.

But Xiao Feng's attitude made him a little confused, what's the situation?

"Well, no, I've eaten a lot of grilled meat recently, so I can get a taste of it. Brother Wang, if you get some beef, I'll grill a few pieces for you. How about you try it?"

"Yo? I didn't expect you to have this skill?"

Old Wang raised his eyebrows. Although he didn't know why Xiao Feng made such a request, he did not refuse. He asked the back kitchen to find two pieces of unmarinated beef and put them on the grill, while Xiao Feng learned from Friday. He kept flipping the roast beef, and at the same time he took out a small porcelain bottle and sprinkled the mushroom powder in it on the meat.
