Chapter 224 Prepare for the Bun Shop Branch

News came from the logistics department that they had found a shop to be transferred in the bustling commercial area in the west of Shen'an Street in the north of the city, and the conditions were quite suitable for opening a bun shop branch.

Of course, such an important matter as opening a branch can only be decided after a visit to the site.

So, on the morning of the second day after getting the news, Feng Daniu drove an Audi Q5, Li Youran sat in the passenger seat, and Aunt Qi went to Shen'an Street in the north of the city together.

"Boss, we are looking for this place, other conditions are very good, is the location is a little off, in the west of Shen'an Street, if you go a few hundred meters to the east, cross a crossroads, is the middle of Shen'an Street, that piece of concentration of dozens of large and small restaurants, including time-honored brands, famous shops are also a lot, is a famous catering area in the north of the city, the popularity has been very strong, almost every family business is prosperous. Danshi couldn't find a transfer shop there, so we had to go west, which was okay, and there were two office buildings next to it. However, the catering industry cannot form a climate, and it cannot borrow the momentum of the central region. Feng Daniu introduced the situation to Li Youran while driving, and there was still some regret in his tone.

"Big bull, when you observe these market conditions, don't be too dogmatic, do you think you need to take advantage of the strength of the bun shop?" Li Youran said disapprerovingly.

"yes, big bull. I think it's good to stay away from the catering and gourmet area, at least it doesn't affect other people's business. Aunt Qi immediately understood what Li Youran meant, and at the same time, she still remembered the turmoil at the beginning of the bun shop, although there was no clear statement later who did it, but it is estimated that it was a colleague nearby out of jealousy.

This kind of thing refers to the establishment of restaurants on the same street, and the complementary restaurants and restaurants of different flavors and types of adjacent restaurants and restaurants meet the needs of diners of various tastes and jointly make the market popular.

Gourmets are also willing to go to this kind of place, because there are many restaurants and a lot of choice, so you can always find something that suits your taste, and you can also take turns to enjoy the food.

But there is a premise here, that is, the level of each restaurant should not be too far apart in order to achieve joint momentum.

For example, if you divide food into grades, for example, grade B buns can get along well with grade A, B, and C knife noodles, and communicate with each other, which is no problem. Danshi, a grade bun is impossible to live in peace with a D grade knife cut noodles in any case, unless the price is far from the same level of consumption.

Feng Daniu thought about it and understood that with the standard of the bun shop's products, there was no need to find a store in the most prosperous and popular neighborhood.

He continued to introduce the situation of the new store, which was originally a self-service hot pot restaurant, but the product was not distinctive, it was a big road product, and the location of the store was not very good, and the boss Yijing could not continue to operate, so he planned to transfer.

Li Youran nodded, this is good, at least the rent will not be too expensive, and the conditions are easy to discuss.

A few people were talking, and the car Yijing came to the West Street of Shen'an Street, Feng Daniu parked the car on the side of the road and told Li Youran that this was the place.

The three of them opened the door and got out of the car together, and Li leisurely looked up at the surrounding environment.

Office buildings, large shopping malls, small shops, street parks, wide roads, overpasses, hurried traffic and people.

The surrounding environment is OK, a general glance, there don't seem to be many restaurants in this area, and the climate has not been formed.

"Boss, this is the shop." Feng Daniu pointed to a three-story shop on the side of the road and said.

Li Youran looked up and saw that the storefront was an ordinary decoration with a little Chinese style, which was quite passable. On the second floor, there is a signboard with gold characters on a black background, on which are written "Longxingfa Hot Pot City". …,

The location of this shop seems to him to be good, at least much stronger than the old store in Shigu Lane, no matter what, after all, it is a storefront along the street.

The roller shutters of the shop were closed tightly, and it appeared that it had long since closed.

Feng Da Niu dialed a call on his mobile phone, and after a while, a bald and stout middle-aged man walked out of the alley next to him, and walked towards Feng Da Niu with a smile on his face.

"This is our Boss Li, come and see your shop today. This is Boss Wei. Feng Daniu introduced the two bosses.

Boss Wei warmly shook hands with Li Youran, exchanged a few words, and then took out the key to open the roller shutter door. The movement was quite neat, and with a bang, the roller shutter door opened upward.

"Boss Li, you've come to the right place. The location of our shop is the best in the surrounding area, and the daily traffic is very large, and the popularity is quite high. On weekends, customers who come to eat have to wait in line outside. You come here to open a restaurant, you can make money, you can't be wrong. Come in. Boss Wei began to brag about his shop and invited the three of them into the store.

"Then why didn't Boss Wei do it?" Li asked with a smile.

"Alas, it's not that there is an urgent matter in my hometown, and I have to go back. It's a pity. Boss Wei shook his head, his face full of regret.

Li Youran understood that this was just a business rhetoric, and he didn't care about it.

He walked into the store, raised his eyes, the hall on the first floor is about more than 100 square meters, the decoration style is modern, simple and bright, the floor tiles, wall wallpaper is not too old, do a good job of cleaning should be able to use, anyway, his branch is not relying on decoration to attract guests, now the hand is not too rich, can save it.

The dining table, dining chairs, counters and so on are also semi-new, and there is no big problem in repairing them.

Boss Wei led the three of them to visit the kitchen, warehouse, and the backyard of more than 80 square meters behind the store, and Li Youran was generally satisfied.

Then go down the stairs to the second floor, which is also a business area, about the same size as the first floor, and on the outer side is a row of floor-to-ceiling transparent glass.

The third floor is an office and dormitory, which is more cluttered when it looks like it.

When everyone returned to the second floor, Li Youran had a rough idea in his heart, so he told Boss Wei that he wanted to discuss it.

Boss Wei understood what he meant, so he went downstairs alone.

"Aunt Qi, what do you think of here?" Li asked leisurely.

"I think it's not bad, the business area is more than 200 square meters, which is enough. The traffic here is also convenient, and I don't think it matters if the popularity is almost, let's spread out the buns, and we will be able to gather soon. "Aunt Qi is full of confidence in the strength of the bun shop.

"It's just that the kitchen area is a little smaller." Li said leisurely.

"It's okay, I think you can build a room in the backyard, and I think it's better for the branch not to make bun fillings, because the raw materials are too cumbersome and labor-intensive. It is simply made by the head office and distributed, which is highly efficient, can ensure the consistency of taste, and also save the area of the kitchen. Aunt Qi suggested.

It's a good idea, and it's good for secrecy. Li Youran listened and nodded again and again.

"That's right, pull it from the main store every morning, and just pick up the bag here. If it's hot, you can freeze the stuffing at the head office before delivering it, but it won't take too long on the road anyway. Feng Daniu also added.

"Okay, then that's it. Da Niu, you stay and negotiate with Boss Wei, and you don't have to press the conditions too hard, it's almost enough. Aunt Qi and I went back to the bun shop first. ”

Li Youran made up his mind, and did not delay any longer, letting Feng Daniu deal with the specific matters behind.

Feng Daniu naturally agreed.

Li Youran went downstairs and said goodbye to Boss Wei, saying that he was quite satisfied with this shop, and that Director Feng was solely responsible for other matters, and Xiwang could negotiate it. …,

Saying goodbye to Boss Wei, the two returned to the car parked on the side of the road, Li leisurely got into the driver's seat, started the engine, and drove back to Shigu Lane.

In the car, Li Youran continued to discuss the branch with Aunt Qi while driving.

"Aunt Qi, who do you think will be in charge of the branch?" He asked, this is an important position, and there is no room for sloppiness.

"I think let Zheng Yan be the manager of the branch, this person is very down-to-earth and not impetuous, he has been coming to the bun shop Yijing for a long time, and I see that he is doing a good job as the deputy manager of the hall in this section." Aunt Qi thought about it for a while and recommended Zheng Yan.

Well, Zheng Yan is really good, he is serious and responsible, and he has been in the bun shop for so long, and I haven't heard anything wrong with him at work.

And he and Zhao Xiuer are in love, and they may be ready to get married and settle down next year, in most cases, this kind of concerned man is the most down-to-earth and reliable.

"Okay, then that's it, you go back and find someone to talk to him and let him be mentally prepared. In addition, you now have to start the recruitment and training of new employees, of course, the branch here can not use all new people, from the head office to draw a few experienced people, with the old with the new, so that the run-in is fast. The shortage of manpower in the old store is filled with new people. Li leisurely arranged the next work.

Aunt Qi agreed, saying that she had been thinking about this matter a few days ago. The bun shop is well treated, and it is very famous in the range of acquaintances and fellow villagers of the existing employees, as long as the news is released, it should not be a problem to recruit people with good quality.

In addition, Aunt Qi recommended a service foreman named He Lingling and asked her to take over the position of deputy manager of Zheng Yan Hall and serve as Zhao Cuihua's deputy.

Li Youran immediately agreed, and he still believed in Aunt Qi's vision in these personnel arrangements.

At noon, Feng Daniu called Li Youran, saying that the matter had been negotiated, and he had also met the landlord, and he would sign a rental contract with Boss Wei and the landlord and handle the handover matters two days later.

The rent is 6,000 yuan per month for a period of three years, and in addition, Boss Wei's existing furniture, kitchen equipment, air conditioning, and decoration compensation are equivalent to 23,000 yuan.

Li Youran roughly estimated that the price was about the same, so he didn't bother to deduct it. He told Feng Daniu that all kinds of procedures would be handed over to him, and it would be enough to ask Director Gu to cooperate in finance.

As a result, the preparatory work for the bun shop branch was in full swing.
