Bao Yewei is 48 years old this year, and he has been running a sheep hot pot here on Xinglong Road for four years.

In the past four years, although the business has been very hot, it is still possible to earn 8,000 yuan a month.

The income of about 100,000 yuan a year is already very good in the current era.

Bao Yewei is a native of Wangshan Village, Fenghuang Town, under the jurisdiction of Baizhou County, because he has made a lot of money by running a hot pot restaurant here in the county, making him a celebrity in the village.

In the past four years, he has not only built a three-story small building in his hometown, but also bought a van.

At this age, Bao Yewei doesn't have much ambition, and his annual income of about 100,000 yuan has made him very satisfied. When his son grows up and takes over the hot pot restaurant, he can go back to his hometown to retire!

However, the birth of Lao Liu hot pot directly stunned Bao Yewei, who wanted to make money in peace.

Here, there is one thing that has to be mentioned, that is, Bao Yewei's luck, in fact, it is really good, since he came to Xinglong Road to open this sheep hot pot restaurant, and then the business has been smooth.

In the past four years, although there have been other hot pot restaurants on Xinglong Road, there has never been a second sheep hot pot restaurant, so Bao Yewei's business has been relatively stable.

But now, for the first time, a competitor appeared, and as soon as he appeared, he got on the bayonet and stabbed him to death!

Bao Yewei naturally will not sit still, although he has no ambition, it does not mean that the hot pot restaurant he relies on for survival will be closed, and he can still be indifferent.

As soon as possible, Bao Yewei gathered his wife and son together to discuss how to deal with it!

It is said that the three stinkers are Zhuge Liang.

As a result, the family of three discussed for a long time, but they still couldn't come up with any effective response.

As a member of the catering industry, Bao Yewei naturally does not know anything about the boss of Laoliu Cuisine, whether it is the relationship between society or officials, he is not comparable.

Therefore, you can only compete with others from the front.

The most important thing in head-to-head competition is two things, the first is taste, and the second is price.

As for service, although it is also important in this era, it is still not as important as taste and price in comparison.

In terms of taste, in order to know themselves and their opponents, the family of three also went to Laoliu hot pot for a meal.

Then, when they came back after eating, the family of three was silent.

Son Bao Fugui said: "Dad, Mom, now our hot pot restaurant, there are only two ways to go. One is to operate shabu sheep like Lao Liu hot pot. The other is to leave the county seat and open a hot pot restaurant somewhere else!"

Bao Yewei sighed and said: "Yes, judging from the current situation, in the future, a sheep hot pot like ours will probably have no place to survive in the county." ”

The old woman Luo Fengzhen said: "This shabu shabu is really delicious, but what if we don't make that spicy soup base?"

Bao Yewei said with a big head: "Yes, that clear soup is easy to make, but we really can't do it well with the spicy soup base, unless we invite another chef back, otherwise if we want to run shabu like others, we will definitely not be able to do it!"

Bao Fugui shook his head and said: "In addition, if you hire a chef, you will have to spend thousands of yuan more every month, if the business is good, of course, it doesn't matter, but once the turnover can't be raised, then you will have to lose money!"

Luo Fengzhen said: "In this way, our hot pot restaurant has to close the door and find another way out?"

Bao Yewei sighed slightly, and said: "The sheep hot pot in the county, not only us, our family's turnover has plummeted, I believe that the business of the other two is not much better, why don't I contact the other two to see what they think?"

Bao Fugui said approvingly: "Dad, you can do this, our family is small, but if it is a union of the three families, then let's not say that the old willow hot pot will be suppressed, but at least there is a business model of capital and learning." ”

Luo Fengzhen also nodded and said, "Then contact us first, no matter how it is, it's better than waiting for death now!"

......

There are only so many customers in the county, and the daily turnover of Laoliu hot pot is as high as more than 15,000, and this turnover naturally does not come out of thin air, but is pulled out of peers.

And this impact is spreading outward level by level, needless to say, the most affected is naturally sheep hot pot, followed by other types of hot pot, and then restaurants and the like.

The outermost hotels only have a small impact, after all, the number of hotels in the county is originally large, not to mention only 15,000 turnover, even if it doubles the turnover, the average number of large and small restaurants is not much.

What's more, the hotel is not in the "epicenter", but only on the periphery, and the impact is naturally minimal.

And the sheep hot pot in the "epicenter" is very miserable, so when Luo Yewei is anxious about the fire, the other two sheep hot pot are also like ants on the pot.

Because they, like Luo Yewei, faced with the crushing Lao Liu hot pot, they had no effective way to deal with it except for dry staring.

Everyone has the psychology of holding together, and when faced with unsolvable difficulties, the owners of the other two sheep hot pots also had the same idea as Luo Yewei.

So, the three bosses who have never had any intersection sat together in this context.

......

Hangzhou City.

Tang Xiaomin has been very troubled recently, a senior in high school, is launching a crazy pursuit of her.

Originally, it was a joy for a woman, regardless of her age, to be pursued by a man, and even many women enjoyed the feeling of being pursued by a man.

Because of Tang Xiaomin's beautiful appearance, since junior high school, there has been no shortage of male suitors.

However, those suitors are more subtle, and even just have a crush on her, and no more than three dare to confess to her directly.

For such suitors, Tang Xiaomin is naturally not disgusted, and I believe that no woman will be disgusted.

If the senior who pursues her now is also this type, then Tang Xiaomin doesn't need to worry, but this senior is different from the previous suitors, he may be influenced by the "Meteor Garden" that has just been broadcast, and he regards himself as F4.

He feels good about himself, and often goes to Tang Xiaomin's class to look for her.

It's the kind of person who stands outside the classroom and then calls Tang Xiaomin out to talk.

Think about being called out to speak by a male senior in front of the whole class, what kind of scene is that?

Tang Xiaomin didn't want to bear the strange stares of the whole class, except for being called out for the first time, he didn't know it, and then he never went out again.

And she also told the other party not to come to the class to look for her, but I don't know what the male senior thinks, and it doesn't matter whether Tang Xiaomin is disgusted with such a move, or she goes to the classroom to look for her every once in a while, which makes her really annoyed!

What made Tang Xiaomin most angry was that I don't know when the news of her falling in love with the male senior spread in their school.
