Chapter 81: Inspecting the Retail Terminal!
It is said that at about 1 o'clock, Zhang Dequan and Liu Xiaoshu were sitting, and Li Ling's new car came out of the central kitchen processing center of the gluttonous cat, and rushed from the effect area to the city.
Along the way, the three people sitting in the car chatted a lot about the development of gluttonous cats in the future.
At the same time, Zhang Dequan also told Liu Xiaoshu about going to the securities business department, giving him and the money to open a stock trading account. What's more, he went to an investment company and insurance company a few days ago, and he also chatted with Liu Xiaoshu about the interesting things he encountered.
Hearing Zhang Dequan say that he went to open a stock trading account for himself and the money, Liu Xiaoshu didn't say anything. Just told Zhang Dequan that no matter what he does, he must be cautious. Before doing something, you have to think it through, and you can't run to do it on the spur of the moment without any consideration.
With the feeling of a car, it is different, and even the time to enter the city from the Gluttonous Cat Central Kitchen Processing Center has been shortened a lot. In the past, just by taking the bus, you had to stay on the bus for more than 30 minutes, or even 1 hour. Today, Zhang Dequan sat in Li Ling's new car, and it only took 20 minutes to get to the city.
Soon after entering the city, I heard Liu Xiaoshu say that near the car passing, there was a gluttonous cat, a retail terminal that had just opened. Since he came over, and it was relatively smooth, Liu Xiaoshu asked if Zhang Dequan and Li Ling were interested, so they would stop by now and turn in to have a look.
"We are gluttonous cats, there is a retail terminal that has just opened near here, are you interested, stop by and have a look." Liu Xiaoshu, who was sitting in the car, saw Li Ling's car, which happened to pass near a retail terminal of Gluttonous Cat, and asked them.
"Zhang Dequan, let's go in and have a look, okay? Anyway, we are already in the city now, I promise to wait a minute, when you are sent away, you will definitely not be late." After listening to Liu Xiaoshu's words, Li Ling turned her head and asked for Zhang Dequan's opinion. Because at this time, except for Zhang Dequan, who needs to be in a hurry, she and Liu Xiaoshu are not very anxious people.
"Well, since we're passing by, let's go in and have a look. After listening to Li Ling's words, in fact, Zhang Dequan at this time also wanted to go in and have a look, because before the opening of Gluttonous Cat, when Liu Xiaoshu came to rent a store, Zhang Dequan came a few times, but at that time, these retail terminals were still in the decoration stage. But after these retail terminals of gluttonous cats are done, Zhang Dequan doesn't know what they look like.
At this time, Zhang Dequan, in his heart, is more curious than Li Ling, which is not an exaggeration. Because when renting this storefront, Zhang Dequan and Liu Xiaoshu came. Therefore, the suspense formed by the appearance of the store after the decoration in Zhang Dequan's heart is much greater than that of Li Ling, who has never seen the store, where is it.
At this time, Zhang Dequan thought again, anyway, they go to work, and they don't have to punch in, so it doesn't matter if they are late, at most, they are just said a few words by the leaders of the shopping mall. I won't be deducted from my salary by their company, I'm afraid of a fart!
I just said that, I encountered a little accident from time to time, and I was late once or twice, and the leaders of the mall would not say anything.
"Then we'll go!" After speaking, Li Ling, under the guidance of Liu Xiaoshu, quickly drove the car to the nearby Gluttonous Cat retail terminal.
Soon, the retail terminal with the theme color of light green was presented in front of everyone's eyes. After that, I saw the three big characters written on the signboard outside the storefront, gluttonous cat. The light green theme background is still quite eye-catching in many stores, which makes people have a visual impact of déjà vu at a glance.
At the beginning, when everyone chose the theme color, the reason why they chose light green was because green represented the ingredients of gluttonous cats, as well as the production process and process, which were organic, healthy, clean and fresh. The light green is light, representing freshness and agility, which is a symbol of gluttonous cat corporate culture, and it is the embodiment of the connotation of business ideas.
Then, the three of them got out of the car and came to the retail terminal of the gluttonous cat, which appeared in front of everyone's storefront. On the whole, it is a structure of a front restaurant and a back kitchen, and the side of the store facing the street is not very wide, but the depth of the store is very long, and there is a back door at the back of the storefront. It is convenient for the logistics delivery vehicle of the gluttonous cat, unloading in the back, or the delivery person of the gluttonous cat, which is convenient to enter and exit the kitchen when the food is delivered.
The restaurant in front is mainly for customers who have the habit of eating in the store, because some people just like the feeling of leaving the dishes and chopsticks to pay after eating, leaving nothing and leaving. Secondly, it is to establish the brand image of the gluttonous cat, and not to make customers feel that the gluttonous cat is a black workshop that does not even have a storefront.
In addition, for the subsequent store renovation and upgrading, reserve a certain amount of expansion space. If the retail terminal needs to expand the kitchen in the future, the area of the restaurant will be reduced or the restaurant will be removed.
In fact, not only this retail terminal, but also other retail terminals, in the initial design and decoration, have taken into account the future expansion issues, and reserved expansion space for future development.
Of course, the dining room in front of it is not very large, and it looks like there are six small tables, which is also for the sake of saving rent. Besides, gluttonous cat owners mainly deliver food to the door, or customers come to pick it up. When customers see that there are not many seats in the restaurant, of course, they will also ask to pack and take them away.
Since gluttonous cats are still in their infancy, everything has to be carefully calculated, and nothing can be rushed.
Liu Xiaoshu's plan was that at the beginning, he would just make some breakfast and some takeaway fast food. Wait in the market and make the gluttonous cat famous, and then make some more exquisite food.
At this stage, I just familiarize myself with the market and straighten out the business process of the gluttonous cat. When the gluttonous cat has a relatively stable operating cash flow, the gluttonous cat can be normal self-hematopoiesis.
After that, we will consider the upstream development of the supply of ingredients, because all cuisines need authentic ingredients, and there is a masterful art of food. For gluttonous cats who have just entered the industry, it is very unsafe to rush in too much.
So what everyone means is to lay a good foundation and practice basic skills first. After the foundation and basic skills have been practiced, we will go to the upstream for development. Only at that time will the gluttonous cat have the ability, as well as the financial resources, to develop in a broader space and realize more ambitious ambitions.
When Liu Xiaoshu walked into the store with Li Ling and Zhang Dequan, the kitchen operation room was still busy. Constantly, there will be the sound of stir-frying, as well as the sound of the fire rushing, coming from the kitchen operation room to the outside.
In the restaurant industry, it is generally a busy time like this from 11 a.m. to around 3 p.m., and then from around 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. It's only about half past one, and it's the peak time for food ordering and delivery.
Of course, there is also a busy time when it is time to sell breakfast in the morning.
"Mr. Liu, you're here!" At this time, the staff who saw Liu Xiaoshu walk in politely greeted Liu Xiaoshu.
"I'm bringing two owners of our company to the store today. After listening to the staff's words, Liu Xiaoshu then casually introduced Li Ling and Zhang Dequan.
"Hello two bosses! Welcome to the inspection! We're busy here! I'm not going to come out to talk to you. Hearing the familiar voice outside, the manager of this shop showed his face through the small window where the food was delivered.
"Old Wu, it's okay! You can be busy yourself! I'll just bring them over to have a look, or it won't be long before we'll leave." Liu Xiaoshu heard the sound of talking in the kitchen operation room, so he casually gave it to the people inside and chatted.
Then, while Liu Xiaoshu was talking, he walked into the kitchen operation room of the store. Take a look at the kitchen operation room and see the basic processes of these shop walks.
Since Liu Xiaoshu has come to inspect the store, it is impossible to just sit outside, chat, and leave. What's the matter, he also got inside the kitchen operation room, went to see, went to check the situation inside.
After seeing Liu Xiaoshu enter the kitchen operation room, Li Ling also walked in. Zhang Dequan, who was following behind, saw Li Ling following in, so he simply walked in.
After walking in, everyone saw this scene.
In the kitchen operator's room, there are three stoves, two of which are in use and the other is idle and not fired. At the two open stoves, two cooks are standing, busy stir-frying.
On the side of the stove, there are some pots for spices and salt, and the largest one is a basin for salad oil, which varies in size, but all of them are very dark.
In the middle of the kitchen operation room, there is a large rectangular table with large and small stainless steel basins on it. Usually, the ones that are placed below are larger, and they all contain the main dishes that have just been prepared, and on top of the ingredients, there are one or two small pots, which are all side dishes.
Behind the table, opposite the stove, there is a stainless steel shelf. On top are blue seeds, large and small, filled with various ingredients. Most of the ingredients above have been preliminarily processed in the central kitchen processing center of Gluttonous Cats. For example, the meat has been cut into small slices and the bones have been cut into small pieces......
There are buckets or basins on the ground, and they are holding ingredients that need to be soaked in water. For example, tofu, kelp, sauerkraut......
In the kitchen operation room, on a shelf in one corner, there are several bags of rice, as well as lunch boxes for takeaway, and other miscellaneous things.
The operation process of the store kitchen operation room of the gluttonous cat retail terminal is quite simple. Because many of the work processes in the kitchen have been processed in advance at the central large kitchen processing center of Gluttonous Cat. In the end, the ingredients that come here can basically be directly put into the pot and stir-fried directly. There is not much need for pre-processing at all, just a simple side dish, and you're good to go.
In the entire kitchen operation room, there are only two cooks, busy inside, and one person is helping two cooks. There are really few staff in the entire store, because Zhang Dequan and Li Ling only saw four people in the entire store.
"Have you had lunch with the two bosses? Do you want me to stir up two dishes for you?" "After seeing Li Ling and Zhang Dequan go in, the chef called Lao Wu probably saw a beautiful woman coming in, so he asked.
"Master Wu, you're busy with you! We've already eaten. Listening to Master Wu's words, Li Ling hurriedly said.
"Master Wu, are there only four people in your store?" Li Ling looked at it, and there were only four people inside and outside the store, so she asked curiously.
"No, there are always six and a half people on our side, two full-time and one part-time. They've all gone out to deliver food now, and they haven't come back yet. After listening to Li Ling's words, Master Wu hurriedly explained.
………
The three of them stayed in the kitchen of the retail terminal of the gluttonous cat, and after staying for a while, Li Ling felt that the time should be almost up. Because Zhang Dequan still has to rush to the mall and go to work.
"It's almost time! Li Ling looked at the time, and then whispered to Liu Xiaoshu.
"Alright, let's go. Old Wu, let's go!" Liu Xiaoshu was inside again and looked at it.
"Okay. After listening to Liu Xiaoshu's words, Master Wu replied.
Then a group of three people walked out of the kitchen operation room.
Next, the first thing Li Ling had to do was to send Zhang Dequan to the mall. Otherwise, Zhang Dequan will be late for work.
