Chapter 24: Busy

Ruan Dongsheng was helping in the kitchen, and it didn't take long for Aunt Chen, Liu Xingwang and Zhao Ping to also come, and a group of people were busy, Zhang Xiaohao fried the fried, marinated the marinade, several pots were steaming, and others helped wash and cut vegetables.

"Wow, that's so busy," leaned against an aunt at the kitchen door.

It's a next-door neighbor, who runs a fast food restaurant, and usually comes to sit down, and sometimes the food is not enough, so they will borrow a little from each other, and the relationship is not bad.

"Hehe, welcome, welcome," Ruan Dongsheng greeted.

"Big boss, your business is really good," the aunt said enviously, looking at the kitchen full of vegetables.

"No, isn't it all like this at the beginning" Ruan Dongsheng said modestly, some shops can indeed attract some customers at the beginning, but when the taste is familiar, they will change to new flavors, which is the case in the catering business.

"I haven't had any guests for the past two days," the aunt said aggrievedly, looking at Ruan Dongsheng and them.

"Hehe, Auntie, there are still few customers in your store, you can't sit down" Ruan Dongsheng said, speechless, on this street, in terms of fast food business, there is no one like her, it has been open for more than ten years, and it tastes good, who doesn't know her shop.

"Where there are guests, they will be gone in two clicks," the aunt said pitifully.

"Auntie, the money can't be earned, and if you keep doing it, you'll be tired of your body, don't work too hard" Ruan Dongsheng said bitterly, this aunt must have seen that their business was getting better in the past two days, so she came over to join in the fun and inquire.

"Alas, I also make some money for retirement, if I don't do it now, I won't be able to do it in the future" The aunt said helplessly, as if it was really like that.

Ruan Dongsheng doesn't believe that her aunt has opened a store here for so many years, not to mention that there are millions of them, a few houses, and her son also runs a company, how can she really make money for the elderly.

"It's almost enough to earn money, don't you rely on your son to support your age, Auntie, you are so powerful, your son is also powerful, you still have to worry about pension," Ruan Dongsheng said.

"Alas, what do we do if we don't make money to support the elderly, we old women will only cook some food, and if we don't do it, we will suffocate at home," the aunt said.

People who are used to hard work really can't be idle, Ruan Dongsheng has a deep experience, no matter how late he slept the day before, he would definitely get up at six o'clock.

After chatting for a while, seeing that it was really busy, my aunt left.

"Brother, do you think Auntie will be jealous of our good business," Ruan Lingyan said quietly.

Ruan Dongsheng frowned, and said, "It's not for sure, my peers are enemies, their fast food is so expensive, it costs twelve yuan to eat anything, what do you say?"

"That's it, they sell it so expensive, we sell it so cheap, it's natural that their business is not good" Ruan Lingyan said, "Brother, why are they selling so expensive?"

"Everybody wants to make a little more, and before we did that, fast food on this street was about the same price," Mr. Nguyen said.

"How can their prices be about the same? Could it be negotiated?" asked Ruan Lingyan.

"That's not it, they should all buy vegetables from the vegetable market over there, how expensive the vegetables are there, plus the gross profit, the price is naturally so high," Ruan Dongsheng explained.

"Yes, we are going to wholesale now, it is almost half cheaper, they definitely can't be as cheap as us, hehe" Ruan Lingyan finished speaking, looking at Ruan Dongsheng and smiling, not to mention how much admiration he had.

"Sister," Ruan Dongsheng said.

"What's the matter, brother," Ruan Lingyan replied.

"Think about how you will collect the debts in the future, if you open a lot of stores, how will you collect the debts?

"No, just let them go to a nearby bank to deposit," Ruan Lingyan said in surprise, why did she come to the store to collect money.

"Deposit in the bank?" Ruan Dongsheng said.

"Yes, every store has a store manager, and the store manager goes to the bank in the morning to deposit money and then exchange it for a little change, isn't that okay?" Ruan Lingyan said.

"That's right," Ruan Dongsheng said, touching his chin.

"It's all like this, my classmates are in a clothing store, and people are like this," Ruan Lingyan said with her head tilted.

This is very convenient, it solves the problem of collecting accounts, and as for the change, it should be fine to settle the accounts once a week, Ruan Dongsheng thought to himself.

"Well, then that's it, you will be responsible for it in the future" Ruan Dongsheng looked at his sister and smiled.

"I'm responsible, I'm responsible," Ruan Lingyan patted her chest and said.

At eleven o'clock, Ruan Lingyan and Zhao Ping went to the lobby, and the three men were in the kitchen, and a pot of stainless steel tableware was full of all kinds of prepared dishes, braised eggs, and kimchi.

The phone began to come in, Zhao Ping answered the landline, Ruan Lingyan answered the mobile phone, and the two of them kept passing small notes back.

After yesterday's training, Ruan Dongsheng was not so nervous, and followed Zhang Xiaohao and Liu Xingwang to pack fast food, and Liu Xingwang sorted out the packed fast food and put it in the car.

Busy and leisurely, Ruan Dongsheng skimmed the orders, and found that there were orders from all kinds of places, office buildings, hotels, units, residential communities, all kinds of things, Ruan Dongsheng sweated on his forehead, and he didn't know how Xiao Hao sent them, can two people run so many places in half an hour?

After a while, more than 150 servings were made, and it was almost half past eleven, Zhang Xiaohao and Liu Xingwang greeted each other, and drove directly to deliver fast food.

The note was still being passed back in front, Aunt Chen helped pack fast food and do a good job of sorting, and there were guests in the store, and Zhao Ping also began to come in to help.

I don't know when, Zhang Xiaohao and the others came back sweating profusely, lifted the basket in the kitchen and loaded it into the car, leaving an empty basket and leaving.

"Brother, have the rats come back?" asked Ruan Lingyan as she put her head into the kitchen.

"It wasn't long since I went out, what's wrong?" asked Ruan Dongsheng.

"It's nothing, the stir-fry is here," Ruan Lingyan retracted her head after speaking.

Ruan Dongsheng became anxious, what should I do, there is still fast food that has not been delivered, and the dishes in the store have not been fried yet.

"Dongsheng, don't worry" Aunt Chen said on the side, "When you are not there, we are all busy"

Aunt Chen's words were like a basin of water, which made Ruan Dongsheng sober up all of a sudden.

There is a specialization in the art industry, Aunt Chen, sister, and even Zhao Ping are not in a hurry at all, they must be very familiar with this situation, and they will be anxious, mainly because they are not usually in the store, they are not familiar with this situation, and they are naturally easy to panic, if they want to understand this, they will help with fast food with peace of mind, Aunt Chen has already begun to help with the side dishes, and Ruan Dongsheng is more relieved to see it.

I looked at the time, and it was twelve o'clock.

"Peng Peng" two car door closings, Zhang Xiaohao and Liu Xingwang came back, Ruan Dongsheng breathed a sigh of relief.

"Drink some Coke" Ruan Dongsheng took two bottles of iced Coke to them.

"Thank you, Brother Dong," Liu Xingwang said after taking the Coke, and took a few big sips.

"I'll wait, Brother Dong" Zhang Xiaohao took the cola and said, took a towel and wiped his face, and stood by the stove and started to get busy.

Liu Xingwang lifted a few fast food baskets next to him, took the car keys, and delivered the food again.

Ruan Dongsheng nodded, just now he was worried that no one would deliver fast food, it turned out that they were so cooperative, it was not bad.

The business in the store is going well, and after Zhang Xiaohao came back, he began to send out stir-fried vegetables, but in fact, most of them were fast food.

Everyone was busy, until half past one, Liu Xingwang had already returned, and later rode an electric car to send a few places, all of which were scattered orders. After half past one, there are no fast food orders, and everyone needs to eat and rest.

In his spare time, Ruan Dongsheng estimated that in a store, at least six people are needed to be busy, two in the front hall, four in the rear, two in the front hall are responsible for answering the phone, cashier, and collecting dishes and chopsticks, and the three in the rear are less nervous.

Six labor, the minimum wage is 3,000 yuan, the average housing is 700 yuan per person, the insurance is 300, and the employee expenses are at least 4,000 yuan, plus performance incentives, the minimum monthly salary of one person is 4,500 yuan, and the labor expenses of a store need 27,000 yuan a month, and the store manager is 500 more, which is 27,500 a month.

Take out your phone, open the calculator, and start calculating

According to the current 4% gross profit, the turnover is 4,000 a day, 1,600 a day, 48,000 a month, and the remaining profit is 20,500 yuan after deducting wages.

After deducting the shop rent, water, electricity, and oil money, a total of 3,500, there is still about 17,000 left, which is only a rough estimate.

Yes, yes, Ruan Dongsheng thought to himself, in the past, after deducting wages, the profit was not negative, and it was considered a pass.

This is still a conservative estimate, and it is just the beginning, and the turnover of the store next to it may double after it is transferred in, mainly because delivery orders should continue to grow.

The problem is that with the awakening of the surrounding competitors, it may trigger a price war, but it should not be so fast, there are more than 100,000 people in this vicinity, and their factor will not affect the market as a whole.

After eating, Ruan Dongsheng asked everyone to rest, Zhang Xiaohao and Liu Xingwang decisively went to sleep separately, Zhao Ping was also very tired and fell asleep on the table, and Aunt Chen went home to rest.

Only her sister Ruan Lingyan was still by her side, chatting with her classmates on WeChat.

Nguyen Dong Sang sipping an iced Coke.

After a while, Ruan Lingyan's mobile phone rang, and without saying a few words, she went to open the store.

"Come in and have a look," Ruan Lingyan beckoned.

Two girls came in from outside the door, not tall, wearing floral shirts, looking very simple, not more than 20 years old, they should have come to the coastal provinces to work.

Ruan Dongsheng saw that he understood, his eyes signaled to his sister, and he ran to the kitchen.

Twenty minutes later, my sister ran to the kitchen and found Nguyen Dong Sheng, who was dozing off.

"Brother, how are the two of them?" Ruan Lingyan asked, looking expectant.

"Ah, yes, yes, looking at the past, it should be quite able to endure hardships," Ruan Dongsheng said.

"Well, they came from the western provinces, and they have worked in restaurants before, and they are very hard-working, so I want to accept them," Ruan Lingyan said.

"You decide, you don't need to ask me" Ruan Dongsheng touched his sister's head and said, the little girl has grown up, and she needs to be given the opportunity to make decisions, only in this way can she continue to grow.

"Well, then I'll tell them to come over tomorrow" Ruan Lingyan grinned, ready to pick up the phone and call.

"I think I just let them come today, the store is busy enough, it's not bad for this day," Ruan Dongsheng said.

"Okay," Ruan Lingyan agreed, picked up the phone and started contacting.

After a while, two more boys came one after another, one with a bald head and tattoos on his body, Ruan Dongsheng stood aside, Ruan Lingyan just asked a few casual words, and sent them away, the other looked honest, a little fat, and looked like a chef's material, after a brief chat, let him come back in the evening, let Zhang Xiaohao take a look again.

The two girls returned to the store, obviously they were very satisfied with the treatment, and soon Sister Dong Ge Yan screamed, and Zhao Ping was also very affectionate, the store was chattering, and the four girls began to chat.
