Chapter 403 It's just a palm-sized instant noodle shop!(One more ask for 20 monthly passes to make up 1,000, Mo Mo Da~)
Lin Zitan and Emma have been busy in the restaurant every day lately, and except for a few necessary partners, they have not publicized their instant noodle shop.
Even the people of Johnson Sr. only know what restaurant the couple will open before the epidemic is over, and they don't know exactly what kind of restaurant it is.
Especially Frank, since the last time I met in front of the restaurant, the instant noodle shop has been open for two months and no one has come back, let alone find any TV station to help distribute the news!
But fortunately, the business of the instant noodle shop is really booming, and before the opening, Lin Zitan estimated that he could sell at most one or two hundred bowls a day, and it would be good to make a net profit of thirty or forty thousand yuan a month.
Who knew that since the opening, more than 200 bowls were sold on the first day, and every day after that, it has been increasing, more than 300, more than 400, and one day it almost reached 450 bowls!
But after all, it is a small restaurant, and no matter how large the volume is, there are times when it can't bear it, and when the order reaches nearly 400 orders, Lin Zitan decisively asked Emma to close the ordering platform!
His consistent principle is like this, everything does not seek to be the fullest, anyway, if the business is good, the money will not be exhausted, and the quick success and quick profit are not long-term, but will only be chaotic in the busy, and the quality of service and the quality of the meal will be reduced.
Although the quality of their food is at that level, the delicacy of the preparation will be greatly reduced in the first place, he doesn't like to rush the meal so much, and in the end it will be lump together in the hands of the customer!
Because business has been busy, the state ZF and New York City ZF still don't allow dinner parties or parties, so Lin Zitan's birthday is busy.
The only gift he received that day was a birthday cake that Emma had left for him in the fridge, which she had made for him, and the two of them went back in the evening to spend a romantic evening together.
In a blink of an eye, Thanksgiving Day in 2020 came as scheduled, and basically all restaurants and shops were closed on this day, and Lin Zitan's instant noodle shop was on a four-day holiday.
Lin Zitan and his wife finally got together with the old Johnson family again, but because of the epidemic, this time the members of the other families did not come, and only Eddie came to be the representative.
"This year is really unlucky! My hotel industry and automobile industry are all losing money, even the low-rent apartment we cooperate with is losing money!"
Before old Johnson came down, Eddie took a glass of red wine and complained depressedly with Lin Zitan on the enclosed balcony.
"Yes, because of the epidemic, few companies can still survive on their own! My rent has not been recovered until now, and one-tenth of it has not been recovered!" Lin Zitan also sighed lightly.
"What is your loss? And you can find a debt collector, what about me? The restaurants and hotels are closed, and I am losing money every month, no, every minute, from water and electricity, to rent, to land tax, and a lot of corporate taxes, and I can't make enough money once in three years!"
With that, Add craned his neck and drank the red wine from the glass.
"It's normal to have a large base and a lot of losses, but haven't you also invested in a lot of stocks?
Lin Zitan also cooperated with Eddie before he knew that this kid was a master of financial management.
"Hey, don't mention it, you think I'm you, just buy those two or three, I bought dozens of stocks, half of them are losing, half are up, plus plus and minus are almost the same between them, and it doesn't help the real company a dime.
Oh, by the way, I heard Frank say that you have a restaurant, what kind of food, it seems that business is not bad!"
"Hey, what kind of restaurant, it's just a palm-sized instant noodle shop!" Lin Zitan said with a smile.
-------------------------
There were too few people to have dinner with old Johnson that night, and the whole restaurant seemed very deserted, if it weren't for the two twins who occasionally teased the old man, Lin Zi really felt embarrassed to delay their three grandchildren.
"Isn't Frank back in New York?"
After eating, old Johnson did not rush to let the butler push him upstairs, but sat in front of the fireplace, and asked casually while watching the children play with the Lego toys that Eddie had brought them.
"He, I shouldn't dare to call you, I went to my mother-in-law's house for Thanksgiving, saying that I was afraid that my mother-in-law would be too lonely to spend the holiday alone. Eddie said as he couldn't help but tease at Lin Zitan:
"Daniel, your sister is quite a means! Not only did Frank get a marriage certificate and apply for a green card with her, but he could also control him so respectful and loving to the young!"
"Eddie, how do you speak! Yijun is not Daniel's own sister. ”
Emma, who was installing a spaceship with her children, heard Eddie's words and immediately turned her head to defend her husband's way.
"Tsk, we've lost all of us in the old Johnson family, love brains!" said Addy.
"It's a good thing for young people to love each other, but you, you're getting older, don't keep messing with flowers outside, your father-in-law is becoming more and more dissatisfied with you!"
Old Johnson frowned and spoke.
"Grandpa, that's because they see that I have lost too much money this year, but this once-in-a-century epidemic is not what I want!
Add argued unhappily.
"Remember that you are a businessman now, don't keep arguing with their family about political affairs, their family is originally a wallhead, but as a businessman, you should have this attitude in order to make your business bigger, otherwise you will stand on the wrong side and will only be beaten!"
After saying this long list of words, old Johnson said hello to the two little dears who were playing with him, and let the old butler push him upstairs.
Lin Zitan and Eddie were left to sit there for a while, but they didn't dare to make a sound.
"Grandpa, this is the more he lives, the more transparent he is! But even if I don't stand in line, my father and brother in the family are all democratic D, can I still make up flowers with others, saying that I am a republican D, or a centrist, will anyone believe me?"
After Johnson Sr.'s wheelchair disappeared behind the elevator door, Eddie finally spit out the resentment he was holding in his heart.
"Grandpa just asked you to be more careful, if you can't talk about political affairs, you can talk more about gas and economy, anyway, there are not many opportunities to gather now, I hope we can all get through this difficult time quickly." Lin Zitan hurriedly smiled and reassured.
"Who's to say it isn't!" said Eddie, who fell silent alone.
"Oh, by the way, Frank said let me help you put an ad on the news for your restaurant, how about it, when you're free, I'll call a couple of newspaper reporters to go to you. After a long moment, Add suddenly spoke again.
"Frank asked you to find it, he said before that he was looking for it, how did he push this matter to you, it's really, it's so unreliable~" Emma said with a red mouth.
"Where does he have time to take care of your little things now, didn't he just invest in a movie?
Eddie said with a wry smile.
"Yijun? Is she really going to be an actress? But isn't her profession an accountant? I thought she was going to take care of Frank's bad debts!"
It's rare for Emma to speak so unscrupulously in front of her family, and after finishing speaking, she looked at Lin Zitan, and couldn't help but bow her head slightly embarrassed.
"How else to say that this girl is amazing, put Frank in good order, alas~ I really can't stand the way you show affection in front of me one by one, let's go, I still have a beautiful appointment tonight!"
As he spoke, Eddie pulled his slender body out of the soft sofa, straightened his suit, waved his hand to the two of them, and then lowered his head and touched the heads of the two twins, and strode out the door.
