"Xiaolong, doesn't it taste good?

The white paper fan asked with a smile.

"Well, this taste is really bad, this chicken, not fragrant, not fresh. ”

Tang Xiaolong shook his head and put down the chicken leg that had just bitten twice.

"Xiaolong, don't eat too much of what Nan Nan cooks, eat her bite, and can't eat these fast food on the assembly line?"

Ge Dahai shook his head and smiled, and also picked up a chicken leg and ate it.

"Stars, fans, you all taste them. Tang Xiaolong said.

Zhang Xingxing and white paper fans also picked up chicken legs and chicken wings and tasted them.

The drumsticks, wings and tenderloins on the plate are fried golden brown with a gluttonous aroma.

Although it is standard fast food, fried food, and so-called junk food, this smell is really not covered.

It is said that a peasant youth like Tang Xiaolong should not say crazy things like "chicken legs are not delicious".

If this had been put aside a few decades ago, in the years of food shortage, a small peasant who dared to say such wild things would definitely have to bear the disastrous consequences, and this kind of disaster was not just as simple as being beaten up.

"Xiaolong, I tasted it, it tasted okay. Zhang Xingxing ate chicken fillet and said.

"Well, it feels a little worse than the taste of Kenzegi, not so authentic, but the price here should be cheaper than Kenzeki, and it's okay. ”

The white paper fan also nodded and said.

Tang Xiaolong shook his head and said, "This chicken has been left for at least more than half a year." ”

"What? Xiaolong, the chicken that has been put in for more than half a year, so it won't stink to death?" Ge Dahai asked speechlessly.

"Dahai, you stupid, I mean, this chicken has been in cold storage for half a year. Tang Xiaolong also smiled speechlessly, "By the way, who is the store manager, let him come over and talk." ”

"The store manager's name is Gongwei, I'll call him. ”

Ge Dahai shook his head and smiled, and left his seat.

After a while, a man in his 30s wearing a white shirt and trousers followed Ge Dahai.

"Gongwei, this is Boss Tang, let's get to know each other! Xiaolong, this is the store manager Gongwei. ”

Ge Dahai gave a brief introduction, Tang Xiaolong nodded at Gongwei and asked him to sit down.

"Boss Tang, hello, is there anything you need to know?"

Gongwei asked respectfully.

As the store manager, of course he knows that Zhang Guoqing is no longer his boss, and this store no longer belongs to Zhang Guoqing, but to Tang Xiaolong Tang's boss.

In the face of the boss, of course, Gongwei has to look like a subordinate.

"Well, I want to know, where does the chicken in our store come from?"

Tang Xiaolong asked in a low voice.

"Boss Tang, the chicken in our store uses frozen chicken, which is pulled from the cold storage. Gongwei said, "The original Zhang Guoqing Zhang boss, he rented his own cold storage, he bought chickens from the Feng family chicken farm in Shilou Village, frozen in the cold storage, four fried chicken restaurants want to use chickens, just pull a batch from the cold storage, pull one is enough for a few days." ”

Tang Xiaolong nodded, and really let himself guess correctly, this chicken used for the National Day was really the chicken from the Feng family's chicken farm.

"How long has the chicken we eaten now been frozen, at least half a year?" Tang Xiaolong asked again.

"This ...... It's going to be 13 months. Gongwei said in a low voice.

", 13 months!?"

Ge Dahai was taken aback, Nima, the meat that has been frozen for 13 months, let alone chicken, even if it is the dragon meat in the sky and the donkey meat on the ground, it tastes like a phrench.

"Gongwei, in addition to the chicken in this store being frozen for a long time, there should be something else that is greasy, right? I tasted it just now, and it tasted a little wrong. ”

Tang Xiaolong stared at Gongwei's eyes and said, "As the boss, I want to know everything about the situation in this store, if you want to continue to be the store manager, take the initiative to tell me all kinds of tricks." ”

"Okay, Boss Tang, I'll definitely say everything that needs to be said, it's just ......"

Gongwei said, and glanced at Ge Dahai, Zhang Xingxing, and the white paper fan in confusion.

"There are no outsiders, even if you say it, even if there is a little human flesh in this chicken, you can say it. ”

Tang Xiaolong said in a condensed voice.

Gongwei's face was shocked, and he hurriedly said, "That's not true, it's just ...... In our shop, in order to control the cost of raw materials, we sometimes use synthetic chicken to make chicken cutlets. ”

"Synthetic chicken, what kind of synthesis method?" Tang Xiaolong asked with a frown.

"Synthetic chicken is a chicken steak made from inferior minced chicken, mixed with meat glue. Gongwei said in a low voice.

"Oh, yes. Tang Xiaolong nodded, "Then the cost of this kind of synthetic meat should be very low?"

"Yes, it's low. ”

Gongwei said, looked around, and made sure that there were no customers around, so he whispered, "This kind of chicken raw material is generally made from sick chickens from chicken farms, or chickens that are about to die!"

"What?"

Tang Xiaolong's brows furrowed, and the three people on the side, Ge Dahai, Zhang Xingxing, and the white paper fan, were naturally also moved.

"The meat of the sick chicken, marinated with seasoning, and then fried at high temperature, the chicken steak after being fried in hot oil, sprinkled with seasoning, so that it tastes very fragrant, you can't eat the taste of chicken at all, and it is impossible to taste the taste of sick chicken. ”

Gongwei said in a low voice, "Of course, if you eat this kind of chicken steak for a long time, the harm to the human body is not small, so this shop only does it occasionally, and every time it is very careful." ”

Hearing Gong Wei's words, Tang Xiaolong and the others had already changed their faces.

If nothing else, let's just say that the chicken legs, chicken tenders and chicken wings on this plate on the table look very fried and smell very good, as for whether the meat is good or not, whether people eat it nutritious or something, then there is no need to ask Gongwei.

"By the way, how profitable is this fried chicken restaurant?" Ge Dahai asked in a low voice, "The few things I ordered, a total of 22 yuan, how much is the profit?"

"The cost of this 22 yuan thing, if you don't count labor, it's only 1 yuan, counting the rent, labor, water and electricity of the store, add 3 yuan, and it will cost 4 yuan. ”

Gongwei said, "Generally speaking, the cost of things only accounts for one-seventh of the price of things, and the remaining six-sevenths are all profits. ”

"What is the peak turnover and peak profit of this store?"

Tang Xiaolong asked again.

"Every year at the end of the year, prices will rise, and the prices in this store will also rise a little, with a peak turnover of more than 12,000 yuan, which appears at the end of the year, in addition to the cost of about 1,500 yuan, the remaining 10,000 and hundreds are pure profits. ”

Gong Wei told the truth.

"Okay, it's really a daily gold, Zhang Guoqing runs four such fried chicken restaurants, no wonder he drives a Mercedes-Benz, and his son Zhang Cong drives a Land Rover. ”

Tang Xiaolong muttered, and suddenly said, "First hang out the sign that is temporarily closed, and when these customers in the store leave, have a meeting." ”
