44, Expansion
Time passed day by day, and the "Zeng's sister-in-law rice noodles" made by Wang Bo continued to ferment in the small Sifang City. As the word of mouth among friends and family of diners who had eaten rice noodles spread, more and more people became interested in the legendary "Zengsao rice noodles". There are even many people who drive cars to taste it. The four-wheeled car was still a rarity in the Sifang in 1999, and the car waved in front of the rice noodle shop, which made it even more sensational. Since then, there has been an endless stream of people who come to eat rice noodles, wave after wave, and even at five or six o'clock in the evening when they have dinner, some people come to eat rice noodles.
For those who sell rice noodles in the four directions, the good business is usually only in the morning and noon, and there is little business in the evening, and many rice noodle shops are directly closed for proofing and do not do business.
One of the "bad consequences" brought about by the continuous boom in business is that countless diners have complained that the waiting time for Zeng's sister-in-law's rice noodles is too long, especially in the morning and noon.
And a bunch of "wonders" sitting on the sidewalk waiting to eat rice noodles directly caused many passers-by to come over to join in the fun, all wanting to taste how delicious this "Zeng's sister-in-law rice noodles" is. Do you have to eat it to become an immortal or how to drop?
At this time, Wang Bo began to realize that choosing the round cake shop did not seem to be the best choice now. The reason why he fell in love with the round cake shop was just to do the business of student babies, but in the current state, let alone any student babies, he can't be satisfied with the diners who come over now.
"No, we have to open a branch right away, or expand the business area of the current store!"
The best thing is, of course, to expand the business area of the current storefront. Wang Bo observed the two shops next door to him, one for hairdressers and the other for Chinese food.
The barber business is good, and it is very unlikely that someone will sublet it to you.
However, as far as Wang Bo saw in the limited few days during Wang Bo's rice noodle sales, the business of the restaurant selling Chinese food can be said to be very bleak, often at noon, when the business should be the hottest, and there are only two or three big cats and kittens in the lobby.
Wang Bo's initial observation showed that the owner of this store had a problem with the positioning, and the area of the store was too small for selling Chinese food, and it was estimated that even 100 square meters was enough to choke, and he would definitely not be able to receive an order for a wedding banquet or birthday banquet that had certain requirements for the business area. Second, the owner's craftsmanship is not very good, and there are no two finale specialties in the store, just some ordinary home-cooked dishes. It is no boast that this boss's craftsmanship can't even catch up with the taste of his mother's stir-frying, so it's strange that the business can be good. The third is that the location of this Chinese restaurant was not well chosen. This street is not a good food street and food street in all directions, and it is difficult to attract target customers if you open a restaurant here.
But it can't be generalized, Wang Bo guessed that most of the profit points of the owner of this "Honghong Chinese Restaurant" are likely to fall on the heads of the students of No. 4 Middle School. In my previous life, there was a classmate in the class who had passed away, so I booked a table here. Now it's because the students are on vacation, so business is not very good, and once school starts, business is likely to improve.
In his previous life, Wang Bo ate lunch and dinner at home, and rarely ate out, so he didn't know if the business of this "Honghong Chinese Restaurant" really relied on the students of No. 4 Middle School to support him.
However, no matter what, no matter whether the other party's business is good or bad, Wang Bo, who urgently needs to expand his business area, needs to try hard.
This time, he didn't go out in person like last time, but asked his little aunt Zhong Xiaomin to help him find out the details of the other party.
"Bo'er, I asked for you, that Boss Huang said that sublease is not impossible to negotiate, it depends on what price we can offer. On this day, Zhong Xiaomin, who came back from the investigation, reported to Wang Bo.
"Then you ask him how much he wants?" Wang Bo said hurriedly.
He said the sublease fee was at least 5,000. Then the rent is 15 a month. Bo'er, this surnamed Huang is obviously knocking on the stick, you can't be fooled by him. ”
As soon as Wang Jichang heard that the other party wanted a sublease fee of 5,000, he blew up on the spot, and when he opened his mouth, he scolded: "This dog's heart is swollen and muttered! 5,000? Why doesn't he rob the bank! 5,000, 2,000 old men can't do it!"
"Bo'er, five thousand is too high. The monthly rent of 15,000 is also too expensive. Zeng Fanyu was also shocked by the other party's lion opening his mouth, and shook his head again and again.
Of course, Wang Bo knew that the other party was opening the lion's mouth, and he also knew that the reason why the other party dared to shout so much was that he saw that their rice noodle shop was doing a hot business and wanted to knock on a deal.
Wang Bo doesn't mind letting the other party make a little money, for him, money is not the most important, time is the most important. If you open one day late, you will earn a few hundred yuan less, and ten days later it will be a few thousand, but now that my aunt is present, he can't tell his parents clearly, so he simply echoed the words of the three of them:
"The guy surnamed Huang really wants money and wants to go crazy. Five thousand is certainly impossible. A monthly rent of one thousand and a half is also impossible. However, the price is sky-high, and the money is paid on the spot. Let's cool this surnamed Huang for two days, and then go to bargain with this turtle son two days later. ”
All three said they wanted it!
Wang Bo made up his mind in his heart, two days later, even if the surnamed Huang didn't give a penny, he planned to fulfill the other party. Because in addition to the transfer fee, the monthly rent of 1,000 and a half is not high compared to a business area of 100 square meters. At present, the monthly rent of this 30 square stores is 600 yuan a month, so if you calculate it, 100 square meters and 15 yuan are not high at all.
In Wang Bo's eyes, the problem of the store has been almost solved, and the other is the recruitment of personnel.
Triple the size of the store, it is impossible to still have four people, it must be recruited, and not one or two, at least three or four must be recruited before it is possible to turn around.
Before his aunt Zhong Xiaomin came to work, Wang Bo was always a little wary of using this kind of related employees and had a lot of prejudices.
However, during the week when his aunt was working, he found that using relatives actually had the benefits of using relatives, for example, no matter what happened, whether it was right or wrong, the little aunt would always look towards their family, and in a day's work, he couldn't see that when his aunt was cheating and cheating, he was rushing to do things with his mother.
"Now it seems that my former self is a bit of a 'blind eye, not seeing Mount Tai'. The ancients also knew that 'the virtuous do not avoid relatives', and they are not as open-minded as the ancients. Wang Bo sighed secretly. At this time, he had already suddenly opened up a little and figured out a truth:
In fact, what matters is not whether relatives are relatives or not, what matters is a person's nature, essence.
A person who likes to cheat and cheat, regardless of whether he is related to himself or not, he will always find opportunities to cheat and cheat, and the relationship will make him even worse and have more excuses.
And an honest, hard-working, and unambitious person, if he is related to you, he will treat your career as his own with a grateful mood, diligent, conscientious, and it is rare to change jobs.
In this way, it does not mean that the disadvantages of using relatives do not exist, in fact, they exist, it depends on how you resolve them.
There are also disadvantages to being a pure outsider who is not related at all, such as the problem of loyalty, the problem of belonging, it depends on how you control it. With
