Chapter 256: Whimsical

Tianlong Restaurant Yuehu Store announced its closure and officially closed its doors and withdrew from the Hancheng restaurant industry.

Since its establishment 20 years ago, Tianlong Restaurant has grown rapidly from a little-known small restaurant to a benchmark in Hancheng's catering industry.

During this period, almost every year, it expanded its stores, increased its branches, and quickly occupied the high-end market of Hancheng's catering industry.

For so many years, there has never been a branch that has closed down because it can't continue to operate, and the Moon Lake store is a precedent.

The closure of the Moon Lake store caused a sensation in the catering industry in Hancheng. Seeing the slight knowledge, from this incident, everyone felt that Tianlong Restaurant had begun to decline.

This is a helpless move to succeed, and the chemical additives of the beverage factory have caused him to directly lose nearly 10 million yuan, which has put huge pressure on the capital operation of the entire company. Moreover, due to the crisis of trust, many old customers began to reduce their purchases, or even directly terminated their cooperation. The damage caused by this is incalculable.

Not only beverage factories, but also food processing plants and all industries of the Tianlong Group.

The company's orders plummeted, and the pillar industry Tianlong Restaurant also fell into a quagmire, making the funds more and more tight.

The Yuehu Road store has basically no customers, and whether it opens or closes, it is a loss.

Dozens of employees have to pay salaries, and the daily rent, water and electricity bills are not a small amount. Especially now that it's summer, no matter whether there is anyone or not, the air conditioner doesn't dare to stop, there is no one in the first place, who will come in after the air conditioner is stopped?

In desperation, he had to announce the closure of the Yuehu Road store.

Shen Jingbin, who had not been to the Golden Leaf Restaurant for many days, finally appeared, and he directly found Sheng Hua and said that Shen Wanhong wanted to accept apprentices.

The so-called acceptance of apprentices is actually to pass on the secret recipe in his hand.

The first thing that came to mind in full bloom was Wei Laoqi.

This man is honest and reliable, hardworking, and willing to study.

For the same dish, he can develop several flavors that suit the requirements of various people.

So he felt that if he passed on the Shen family's secret recipe to him, it should be a good choice.

As soon as Bloom told him, of course he agreed. However, he was a little embarrassed and said, "I'm afraid I have to ask my master for his consent first." ”

Chen Xiyuan called Chen Bawan, originally thought that it would take a lot of words to convince, but he didn't expect him to agree very happily.

"Old Man Shen is willing to teach, that is, he looks up to me Chen Bawan, of course he has to accept it. Wei Laoqi must perform the apprenticeship ceremony, and in the future, he will shoulder the responsibility of inheriting the secret dishes of the Shen family. ”

Hanging up the phone, Chen Xiyuan said in disbelief: "When did my dad become so enlightened?"

Chen Bawan said, "That's how you look at your father?"

Shen Jingbin told Shen Wanhong the news, took Wei Laoqi to apprentice, and then went to his house to study for two hours every afternoon.

Sheng Kai originally wanted to give Shen Wanhong a sum of money, which was also a technology transfer fee, and Shen's secret dishes would create benefits for the Golden Leaf Restaurant in the future.

But Shen Wanhong said that he didn't want anything, and he said calmly: "Although Shen's secret dishes will be used in the Golden Leaf Restaurant in the future, I will never accept a penny." ”

With the combination of Chen Jiaban and Shen's secret cuisine, Golden Leaf Restaurant will definitely develop rapidly.

Without the chaos of Tianlong Restaurant, the business of Golden Leaf Restaurant is booming, if it were not for the scale of the store to limit the flow of customers, it would not be a problem to achieve more than 100,000 per day.

Even so, it is now able to reach more than 70,000 per day. Moreover, the Wenhua Road store has changed a junior brother of Wei Laoqi as the head chef, and the business is much better.

In the past, when Han Daniu was the chef, he could make nearly 30,000 a day, but now he can approach 40,000 a day.

With the boom in business, the store hired a few more waiters, just to fill the rented dormitory.

In the Wenhua Road store, a dormitory was also rented, so that the room originally reserved for Han Daniu to rest was changed to a private room.

The combined operating income of the two stores is more than 100,000 yuan per day. Sheng Kai drove Ye out of the Wenhua Road store every night, recovered the turnover, and deposited it into the company account of Golden Leaf Restaurant the next day.

The 200,000 yuan of decoration money and materials owed have already been paid off, and in a month, there are already 1.2 million deposits in the company's account.

Seeing that the business in the store was getting better and better, Rong Yan and Chen Xiyuan both asked if they could raise the price. You know, if the price increases, the part that rises is the net profit.

Sheng Kai refused without hesitation, and he decided that all newly opened stores in the future would be priced uniformly and implement a price close to the people.

But he also thought of opening a flagship store to expand the Golden Leaf restaurant brand.

The flagship store is also the main store of Golden Leaf Restaurant, and he intends to target a high-end customer base for this store.

For so many years, the high-end customer base of Hancheng's restaurant industry has been monopolized by Tianlong Restaurant, and almost no one dares to challenge their authority.

But Sheng Kai wants to challenge it, and now the best chef resources in Hancheng are in their own hands, and they can't be wasted.

And he also has a plan, when the time comes, invite Chen Bawan out of the mountain, and apply to hold a chef competition in the flagship store every year.

In this way, you can not only open up the popularity of Golden Leaf Restaurant, but also select excellent chefs for your own use and learn from the strengths of others.

After the business stabilized, he rode his bicycle outside every day to find a suitable place.

Ye Qingqing saw that he had not been in the store all day, and knew that he must be thinking about opening a new store again.

She has no objection, although the second store is frightened, but after all, it is extremely Tailai.

If you want to revive the Ye family, you can't naturally enclose yourself and be self-contained, and development is the last word.

The most optimistic in full bloom is Baishui District, which is a new district of Hancheng, a new business circle that Hancheng strives to build, and an area where the wealthy of Hancheng gather.

After more than ten years of development, the climate has been formed here, with the landmark building of Hancheng Financial Building, and the second tallest building in Hancheng, Ziyun Building.

At the same time, it also has the flagship store of Dorsett Hotel, the largest super five-star hotel chain in Hancheng.

It has the largest shopping plaza in Hancheng, the most prosperous entertainment street in Hancheng, the largest food city, amusement park and so on.

Here, you can experience the prosperity of Hancheng everywhere and at all times.

He is optimistic about the three antique lofts located on the shores of Whitewater Lake. The main building is five floors high, with a construction area of nearly 600 square meters on the first floor and more than 2,000 square meters for the entire attic.

The two transepts have three floors each, with a total construction area of 1,500 square meters.

He specially inquired that this was newly built by the Baishui Lake Development Management Office, and the original intention of the construction was to attract high-end hotels. It's just that the price is also touching, the monthly rent is 450,000, and it has to be signed for ten years at one time, and the rent is paid every year.

For rent alone, you have to pay 5.4 million in a lump sum, and you have to pay a deposit of 200,000 yuan, which is 5.6 million.

The three buildings are newly built and look like they are made of wood, but they are all concrete and steel structures. The inside is just a frame, which means that if you rent it, you have to completely renovate it.

He estimated that with such a large area and to be renovated into a flagship store, the decoration cost, kitchen construction, central air conditioning, dining tables and chairs, etc., will not add up to at least 5 million.

In this way, this store is down, and there are not 10 million that cannot be moved.

It's no wonder that China Merchants has not rented out for several months, and ordinary people really can't afford such an investment.

The point is that just a mile from this loft is the Dorsett Hotel on the shores of Whitewater Lake, which is the most famous five-star hotel in Hancheng.

Although it is a bit unrealistic, Bloom does have a crush on this place and has been hanging out here for the past few days.

He was calculating in his heart that according to the current business of the two stores, there would be a profit of more than 1.2 million a month, so after eight months of operation, he could take this place. Seeking Chinese

The question is, can this place wait for him for eight months?

The answer is no, in such a prime location, he can find that there are so many hotel owners in Hancheng, I am afraid that some people have already taken a fancy to it.

He had a bold idea.

Loan!

Who is not a person who does a big business by borrowing chickens to lay eggs?

If he can take out a loan of 5 million, he will dare to take this place. If you pay the rent and decorate, you can use the profits of those two stores to smash in, which is completely possible.

Because the decoration here takes at least three months, these three months are not unexpected, and can generate a profit of about 4 million.

Coupled with the 1.2 million already stored in the account, there should not be much shortfall in funds.

Of course, this is only his estimate, and if he really wants to do it, he must ask the renovation company to come and do the actuarial calculation to determine how much investment he will need.

Every day when he returned to the store, he locked himself in his office to write and draw, and he drew several pictures of the three buildings.

On this day, he finally didn't go around anymore, and stayed in the office all day to write and calculate.

Ye Qingqing had already discovered that he was a little abnormal these days, and when they ate together, they would wander away.

She had never seen him like this, even before, when he was in Ye Mansion, although he was worried about his adoptive mother Yan Jieya every day, he would not have such a restless look.

Ye Qingqing came to the office and saw him lying on the desk writing and arithmetic, In front of him, a few pieces of paper that were full of words were thrown in a mess.

She crept over, grabbed a piece of paper and looked at it, and saw that it was a mess of numbers.

And then what are the classifications of Hall A, Hall B, and so on.

She couldn't see why she looked at it for a long time, frowned and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Sheng Kai Leng Buding, who was calculating with all his heart, was taken aback, looked up at Ye Qingqing, who was confused, and smiled: "I...... It's okay to play it. ”

"You...... You don't want to open a branch again, do you?"

"Do you think you can open it?"

"I ...... If you want to open it, you should take it out and discuss it and demonstrate the feasibility. ”

A hint of joy flashed in Sheng Kai's eyes, but it quickly dimmed, and he shook his head and said, "Forget it, this is ...... Let's put it first......"

As he spoke, he looked at the drawing on the table with a little reluctance.

Ye Qingqing grabbed the picture curiously, looked at it carefully for a moment, and asked, "This is the venue you are optimistic about?"

Sheng Kai nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I'm dreaming, I don't want to, after a while, I'll wait for more money in the company's account to think about it." ”

Ye Qingqing looked at him suspiciously: "I really don't want to, why do I think what you said is not the truth? This is not like you, I always thought that you were decisive." ”

Sheng Kai couldn't help but be slightly stunned: yes, on the battlefield, he is indeed decisive, as long as he decides the battle he wants to fight, he never looks ahead. But when you get to the mall, how did you become so indecisive?

However, he can't be decisive in this matter, this is real money, but it is not on the battlefield, with his ability and ruthlessness, he can solve the matter.

Seeing that Sheng Hua was silent, Ye Qingqing said: "For so many days, you go out every day, and when you come back, you write and calculate in the office." If you don't want to, I'm afraid you won't believe it, right? Tell me, where are you optimistic about, do you have a plan in mind?"

Sheng Xingxing did have a plan, but this plan was crazy.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "Whitewater Lakeside ...... in Whitewater District"

Ye Qingqing's eyes lit up, and he said: "A little vision, Baishui District is the most prosperous new area in Hancheng......"

She grabbed the picture again and asked, "Why don't you tell us about your plans?"

Sheng Kai glanced at her, felt the eager glint in her eyes, and he seemed to be suddenly encouraged, took the drawing in her hand and spread it out on the table.

Then he took out his mobile phone, clicked on the photos, called up the photos he had taken from multiple angles, and showed them to Ye Qingqing one by one.

Dozens of photographs of the three attics were taken in great detail, framed near and far, with pictures of each floor inside and out.

"It's a nice view...... It's really beautifully built, it looks like the scale is not small, and it's a prosperous area, if this place can be won, it will indeed be ......."

In order to look at the photo, Ye Qingqing unconsciously leaned his head over, and there was a faint fragrance from his open nose, and his heart was slightly rippling, and he forgot to flip the photo.

Fortunately, Ye Qingqing was completely attracted by the photo, and did not notice the abnormality of the bloom, and said with a sigh while watching.

Hearing her words, Sheng Kai suddenly woke up and flipped through a few more photos.

After looking at the photos, Ye Qingqing looked at Sheng Kai suspiciously and asked, "You are here every day, do you have an approximate budget?"

"Ten million. ”

Ye Qingqing glared and almost breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ten million......? How much flat is this?"

With a total construction area of 3,700 square meters, the original design intention here is a high-end hotel, combined with the surrounding scenery along the lake, to form a scenic spot that integrates consumption and play. ”

Ye Qingqing involuntarily swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said incredibly: "You really dare to think about it!"

Sheng Kai smiled innocently, turned off his phone, and said, "So I said it was a dream." ”

Ye Qingqing kept staring at him closely, as if he didn't know him, with a suspicious look in his eyes, and asked, "No, have you already thought about it?"

Sheng Kai was slightly stunned, feeling that her heart was completely seen through by her, and she panicked slightly, and said, "I have thought about it, but it is not realistic." ”

"Tell me?"

"If you can borrow 5 million, take it here...... It shouldn't be a big deal......"

Ye Qingqing said angrily: "It's not big, a loan of 5 million, do you really dare to think about ......it?"

Sheng Kai's expression darkened, put away the papers on the table one by one, and then threw them into the drawer, and said a little lost: "I also know that this is whimsical." ”

Ye Qingqing looked at his lost appearance, her heart was slightly sour, she bit her lip and said, "You really want to get it?"

Sheng Kai didn't speak anymore and walked out of the office: "Let's go, it's rush hour, let's go and look at the store first." ”

Ye Qingqing looked at his back and suddenly said, "Why don't you ...... I'll try. ”

Sheng Kai turned around suddenly, with a light of hope in his eyes, and said excitedly, "Really?"

Ye Qingqing was stunned, his reaction just now seemed to be waiting for her to say this, and she faintly felt deceived.

However, seeing his happy appearance, there was a faint sweetness in his heart.

At some point, she had quietly liked to see him sincerely happy.
