Chapter 91: The Secret Recipe
Chapter 91: The Secret Recipe
"Mr. Hu, the revenue and cost of No. 1 store are disproportionate. To put it simply, the cost is too large, and the consumption of various ingredients exceeds the normal value. ”
Wang Yuan is a young financial officer, but her business level is very good.
Hu Yang took the ledger and receipts, and after a few glances, he found the problem. He didn't even need to verify it, he knew what was going on, and he couldn't help but curse in his heart: "The three monkeys really don't make people worry." ”
"Accountant Wang has done a good job! I won't read the account book, and you can write me a simple report later." ”
Hu Yang sent Wang Yuan away with a pleasant face, closed the door, and his face sank.
Liu Donglai has many advantages, especially morality. At the same time, this is also a shortcoming, such as the account that Wang Yuan took today.
Hu Yang closed his eyes and knew that the reason why the cost consumption was abnormal was that the three monkeys made some vegetables and drank a bottle of wine with his fellow villagers after closing the shop. No, the three monkeys also invited some friends from outside to come over and eat and drink together.
Liu Donglai didn't mention the cost of these ingredients, and there will naturally be an obvious deficit in the account after a long time.
"Sure enough, there are still loopholes in management!"
Liu Donglai's casual behavior is only one aspect, and on the other hand, there are loopholes in the catering company's system. Whether it is Populus Hu or Li Hao, they actually know little about the catering industry. If you want to grope your way forward, not only will it take a long time, but I am afraid you will have to pay a certain price.
Of course, the best way to hire someone who knows how to manage the business is to do so, but Hu Yang has not thought of the right person at the moment.
Hu Yang opened the drawer, subconsciously took out a cigarette from it and lit it, took a few puffs and snuffed it out again. Before he was reborn, he had a big addiction to cigarettes, basically one or two packs a day. But now, he rarely smokes, and even if he lights one occasionally, he can't take a few puffs.
Liu Dong is here to deal with it, it is big and small, and it is not difficult to deal with it. However, through this period of observation, this guy really has no talent for management.
The top priority is to bring in management personnel, at least to put the "store manager" level in place.
"Hey, it's really worry-free. ”
Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, Hu Yang thought that he could be idle for a while, but the reality could not be as he meant.
Hu Yang could only put on his coat and went downstairs and drove to Education Street.
When he came to the office of the catering company, Hu Yang was about to push the door in, when he heard Li Hao's roar from inside.
"Ahem...... Uncle, from the east, it's all here. ”
Hu Yang didn't have the habit of listening to the crack in the door, he coughed and walked in, and saw Li Hao training Liu Donglai.
"Yang Yang, you're just in time. The three monkeys are going to turn the sky upside down if they don't care about it anymore. ”
It seems that Li Hao also noticed Liu Donglai's nonsense, and he is angry at this moment.
Liu Donglai didn't dare to contradict Li Hao, his face was flushed, and he was obviously very unconvinced.
Hu Yang smiled and said, "Uncle, I already know the situation." If you don't lose your anger, I'll talk to Donglai alone. ”
Since entering the house, Hu Yang has shouted "Donglai" twice, and has not called Liu Donglai's nickname "Three Monkeys".
Liu Donglai was stunned for a moment, and seemed to notice a hint of unusualness.
Li Hao nodded and didn't speak, so Hu Yang motioned for Liu Dong to come and talk to him in the back room. The two walked into the back room one after the other, and Liu Donglai closed the door with his hand.
"Donglai, I don't want to say anything swearing, I'll just say what I think. As for you, although you like the catering industry very much, you are really not suitable for management. What I mean is that you can either be a shareholder and wait for the dividends. If you really want to work in the restaurant, you can be the head chef and take charge of the work in the back office. ”
In fact, there is no chef position at all in a snack bar like this. Hu Yang just meant that, and wanted Liu Donglai to stay in the back hall.
"Brother Hu, do you mean to drive me away? We're not a big hotel, where is the head chef? Aren't you a cold adulter......
Liu Donglai also knew that he didn't do a good job, but he was this kind of character, and when he was coaxed by a few kind words, he didn't know how many pounds and taels he had, and all the rules and regulations were left behind.
"Donglai, you said that you should study your cooking skills well? Shall we only open this one store in the future? When there are more branches in the future, will there be a standard for the quality of the food in each store? This standard needs to be constantly explored, improved, and summarized...... Tell me, what should this position be called?"
A flash of inspiration struck Hu Yang's mind, and he suddenly had a new idea.
Fast food restaurants like Shaanxi (Western) style snacks, as long as the standards of various foods are unified, in fact, the role of the chef is not very large.
For example, the key to meat sandwich buns is braised pork. If Liu Donglai masters the best plan for braised pork, then the meat sandwich buns made by all branches in the future will basically be the same taste. With the quality of ingredients and accessories in advance, the business of the store will not be affected by the coming and going of a few chefs at all.
"You mean...... Let's make a secret recipe for every snack?"
Liu Donglai is not stupid at all, but his social habits are a bit heavy. He is not only righteous, but also good-looking, and he is really not the kind of selfless person with an iron face. But when it comes to cooking, this guy is quite bright, and he can see through it at all.
"Poof...... You must have read too many martial arts novels. But the meaning is pretty much the same, you have to say the secret recipe. This requires you to constantly explore, communicate more with the chefs, and observe more. I'll give you a deputy, and I hope you will come up with a standard as soon as possible.
On the side of the No. 1 store, you will hand over the management work to your uncle first. When we look back, the company will hire a professional store manager. In the East, doing business is not like playing games when we were children, we can do whatever we want, and it is not okay to have no rules. Due to your reasons, there is a deficit on the books of the No. 1 store, and you must make up for it immediately. Remember, not an example!"
Hu Yang didn't say anything polite to Liu Donglai, if he couldn't figure it out, he would be his shareholder honestly. This guy doesn't go to the house for three days, and he really can't get used to his problems.
"Hehe, I see, I'll fill the hole right away. Brother Hu..... No, Mr. Hu, I would like to be the head chef. You can rest assured, I will definitely mix the most ideal flavor, so that our chain stores are all over Xijiang City. ”
If Li Hao said these words, Liu Donglai would definitely not be convinced. But when Hu Yang said it, he was convinced. Sometimes people's inertia is really terrible, this guy has been abused by poplar since he was a child, and he has no sense of resistance at all.
"That's it, how good is this? Go out and say hello to your uncle, you go back to store No. 1 first, and I'll ask my uncle to hand over to you in the store when I turn around." ”
Hu Yang stepped forward and patted Liu Donglai on the shoulder, opened the door and walked out.
Liu Donglai then chatted with Li Hao with a smile, as if nothing had happened. If you want to be thick-skinned, he is the most powerful.
After Liu Dong came and left, Hu Yang told Li Hao about the decision just now.
