Chapter Ninety-Six: Preparation
After listening to Allen's words, Yi Xingchen saw this, and did not express his will to oppose their protector again. Well, if, if the book, since his goal of convincing everyone has been achieved, then he can't discourage his subordinates.
"In this case, from now on, Sheen and Muen will preside over the preparation of the second merchant group to go out of the city to do business, and the others will assist. We packed all the goods in the palace warehouse, and three days later, we set out. Yi Xingchen said.
After the second business of the Xinghua business group became a foregone conclusion, Yi Xingchen and a group of officials continued to discuss the matter of brewing wine and seasoning in the conference hall.
The books brought back by the Xinghua Merchant Group last time in the East greatly enriched the knowledge of Lucas, Dara and other people, and made them deeply understand that there is a truth outside the sky. So, when it came to this matter, they first made a suggestion, hoping that when the merchant group went to business again, they would bring more raw materials for brewing or making spices back to China, so that they could try to research some new things.
This suggestion coincides with Yi Xingchen's thoughts. Yi Xingchen also hopes that his comfortable restaurant can continue to introduce some new dishes to attract more diners, so naturally he will not refuse their suggestions. So, Yi Xingchen asked Lucas and Dara to write down the raw materials they wanted one by one and hand them over to the merchant group, and then the merchant group left the country to purchase them, and the matter was conclusive.
In the next step, Yi Xingchen put forward another agenda closely related to Xinghua - how to effectively introduce the population as soon as possible on the pretext of building a manor while leaving the country on this trip, so as to further improve the productivity of Xinghua and enhance the national strength.
"Sister, I've already tried the food next door, and their food isn't as good as ours! As soon as Tong Rui returned to the apartment, she couldn't wait and angrily relayed her tasting feelings to Tong Xin.
Tong Xin heard that the failure of the Shuxin restaurant was not due to the poor quality of the food, and she was finally slightly relieved, as if a worry in her heart had been relieved, but the look on her face did not relax: "The sales in the store are getting worse and worse day by day, and I am worried to death." With no one else around, Tong Xin was able to complain to her sister.
Recently, although the sales of the comfortable fast food window on College Street are still booming, because the business situation of the comfortable restaurant on Square Street is getting worse and worse every day, the customers are getting fewer and fewer, and the salary pressure of the chefs and waiters who have to bear the burden is actually not as much money as the restaurant made before it moved to Square Street.
"Those women are so, they don't pay any attention to public influence, they just wear cool clothes and solicit customers on the road all day long, what has become of that? Also, the owner of the store next door is also very shameless, not only copying our name, but also operating in this way, arranging for these women to openly solicit customers and intercept our customers, clearly trying to steal business from us while slandering our signboard. If you don't pay attention, you will think that our comfortable restaurant is doing such an unethical deal!" Speaking of this, Tong Rui gritted her teeth with hatred.
The worse the situation of the comfortable restaurant, the less the bonus will be as an employee of the comfortable restaurant, and because the owner next door deliberately chose a store name with the same pronunciation as the comfortable restaurant, the comfortable restaurant was implicated in the damage to its reputation for no reason, so that others would listen to it, and they would be dishonorable. Therefore, every employee of the comfortable restaurant is very disgusted with the comfortable restaurant next door.
"It's not just the fast food restaurant next door, it's the restaurant across the street, it's also an impact on the comfort restaurant. Tong Xin continued while thinking, "Of these two restaurants, one operates low-grade fast food, and the set meals are cheaper than ours. The other is engaged in high-end dishes, ingredients, chef skills, and the essence of color, flavor, and flavor...... It's easy to get hooked on new diners if they haven't tasted a meal from our comfort restaurant. ”
"That is, there is also the shop that specializes in red and white supplies, and it is still chanting scriptures and reciting Buddha all day long, and I don't have the heart to eat when I listen to it. Sister, what should we do?" asked Tong Rui.
"I remember the owner saying that he wanted to turn the restaurant into a boutique. I think that's where we can start with our comfortable restaurants. Tong Xin replied.
After some time of study and speculation, Tong Xin has realized that as a store manager, she should respond in time when the restaurant encounters unexpected situations and take effective measures to quickly get rid of the dilemma of a comfortable restaurant, instead of asking Yi Xingchen for everything and waiting for Yi Xingchen to solve it. Moreover, Yi Xingchen spent less and less time in Shuxin Restaurant, and now faced competition from many restaurants on Square Road, Tong Xin began to think independently about how to run Shuxin Restaurant.
Yi Xingchen wants to join the business group and go to the east to leave the country, and he needs to prepare a lot of things.
Going to the east and leaving the country will take up a lot of Yi Xingchen's time, at least he can't go to class for several days, and there is no way to guarantee the time for class. Yi Xingchen wanted to say hello and ask for leave.
However, Yi Xingchen soon discovered that he could not directly ask the counselor for leave, let alone ask the classroom teacher for leave. Yi Xingchen couldn't tell the teachers in the university that he was the king of Xinghua and was going abroad for business activities. If he really said that, the school would probably treat his words as nonsense, and perhaps consider sending him to the office of a university counselor for a psychological test. He didn't want to get himself in trouble.
Yi Xingchen had no way to ask for leave normally, so he could only ask his brother in the dormitory for help.
One night, when the dormitory people went to bed with the lights out, Yi Xingchen bluntly told him and asked the brothers in the dormitory to help. Tell them that they have something to do and need to leave school for a while, ask them to help, and ask the teacher to ask for a leave of absence or call for something during class. If you have the opportunity, you can help, and it doesn't matter if you can't help.
Shan Renzheng, Zhao Xingzhou, and Han Yicheng naturally agreed, and they jokingly wanted to blackmail Yi Xingchen for more than a dozen dinners.
Yi Xingchen generously agreed, and the next day he gave more than 30 free meal cards specially made by the comfortable restaurant to the three people in the dormitory. With the free meal card, the three of them can go directly to the comfort restaurant for free dining or get free fast food.
Zhao Xingzhou and Han Yicheng got a free meal card from a comfortable restaurant, and both of them were very happy. They've always missed the food at the comfort restaurant. The limited-edition fast food on College Street is more affordable, but it's hard to come by. Now with a free meal card, they can go the extra mile and go straight to the cozy eateries on Square Street. If it's like a book, read the home of books!
