Chapter 199: Zou Rong's Entrepreneurial Road (Part II)
"Open a café?"
After listening to Zou Rong, Zou Dazhu and his wife were obviously stunned for a moment, because they had never touched such a thing as coffee.
With the conditions of the Zou family, it is impossible to waste money to drink any coffee, and the taste of coffee is probably not what Zou Dazhu and his wife like.
As for opening a café, it is unimaginable for the couple, and in their hearts, they also have a sense of rejection of this trendy thing, after all, they are also considered to be the older generation, and their ability to accept it is still relatively poor.
"Rong Rong, how much does it cost to open a café?"
Zou Dazhu was the first to ask, in his impression, those coffees are places where rich people go, and this investment is probably not millions or hundreds of thousands.
With so much money, the Zou family can't come up with it.
"Maybe two or three hundred thousand." Zou Rong just said Jiang Xu's mentions, and when she heard her father ask, she said Jiang Xu's estimated investment amount.
When Su Mei heard this, she said with a bitter face: "Rong Rong, we can't take out so much money." ”
What is the current situation of the Zou family, Su Mei is naturally very clear, these two or three hundred thousand are not different from astronomical numbers for the current Zou family.
"Auntie, I'll settle the money, as long as you agree."
Jiang Xu also spoke at this time, his tone paused slightly, and then continued: "The operation of the café is very simple, and I have an exclusive coffee recipe in my hand, I will definitely not let you lose money, and besides, I can't use money to do a loss-making business, right?" ”
How could Jiang Xu not know what Zou Dazhu and his wife were worried about, and for honest ordinary people like Zou Dazhu and his wife, in fact, the most direct words are the most effective.
Sure enough, after listening to Jiang Xu's words, Zou Dazhu and his wife were a little tempted.
No one likes to live a poor life, and Zou Dazhu and his wife are not young, after all, part-time work is not a long-term solution, and this old street and alley may be demolished soon, the compensation is not much, if there is no money, then they may not even have a place to live.
If you can start a little business of your own, it will definitely be the best.
"Jiang Xu, we haven't done business, I'm afraid ......" Zou Dazhu was still a little worried, after all, he had never done business before, for fear of losing Jiang Xu's money.
Jiang Xu said directly: "Uncle, you don't have to worry about this at all, it's just a small café, it's very simple, not to mention me and Zou Rong." ”
With only an investment of more than 200,000 yuan, the scale of the café can be imagined, this kind of small-sized café is not much different from ordinary small shops, even if Zou Dazhu and his wife have not done business, but as long as they have a little contact, they can basically get started.
After waiting for the scale of the café to grow, basically Zou Dazhu and his wife already have the ability to manage independently.
"Jiang Xu, ...... the money invested?" Su Mei asked softly beside her.
After all, it is hundreds of thousands, and Su Mei naturally wants to ask clearly.
Jiang Xu naturally knew what Su Mei was thinking in her heart, and said with a slight smile: "Auntie, I will lend you this money, and when the café makes money in the future, you can return it to me, if it is a qiē shun lì, at most a year, you should be able to return this money to me." ”
This year's time is already Jiang Xu's maximum estimate, even if Zou Dazhu and his wife's business ability is poor, it is still easy to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.
"So fast?"
Su Mei was stunned for a moment, if someone else said this, she would definitely not believe it.
But for Jiang Xu, she has a sense of trust that cannot be described in words, not only her, but Zou Dazhu is the same.
Jiang Xu continued to promise: "Auntie, you just have to put a hundred hearts, I said that if you can make money, you must be able to make money." ”
Su Mei was already completely moved, but she didn't make a decision immediately, but looked at Zou Dazhu, after all, Zou Dazhu is the head of the Zou family, and only if Zou Dazhu agrees, this matter can be regarded as a real decision.
Although Zou Dazhu was also extremely moved, he was still a little hesitant and said: "Jiang Xu, what about the company's affairs, the company has been so busy recently, if we leave all at once, I'm afraid it won't be good." ”
The company Zou Dazhu mentioned naturally refers to Jincheng Pharmaceutical.
Jincheng Pharmaceutical is now in a period of development, if it just leaves, Zou Dazhu's heart is also a little uneasy, after all, Jincheng Pharmaceutical treats him really well, and he also takes great care of him.
"Uncle, you can stay in the company for the time being, and let your aunt help Zou Rong, and after two months, after the company's situation stabilizes, you can resign."
This little thing is nothing to Jiang Xu at all, Jincheng Pharmaceutical is his Jiang Xu's industry, and Zou Dazhu's departure is just a matter of his words, but Jiang Xu hopes that Zou Dazhu can stay in Jincheng Pharmaceutical for two more months.
After all, Zou Dazhu is also at the management level now, and he can learn a lot of things in Jincheng Pharmaceutical, and then he will run a café again, which will be a breeze.
With Jiang Xu's words, Zou Dazhu no longer hesitated, he turned his head and asked Zou Rong directly: "Rong Rong, what do you think, if you really want to open a café, then open it." ”
"Dad, I think we can give it a try." Zou Rong responded seriously.
"Okay then."
Zou Dazhu gritted his teeth, and finally nodded his head-
Zou Dazhu still had to go to the company at noon, especially Su Mei, she had to go to the company to handle the resignation, so soon after lunch, Zou Dazhu and his wife left home.
Jiang Xu was not in a hurry to go back, but drove directly with Zou Rong to find a store to open a café.
After all, Zou Rong only has two months, and she will go to Minzhong University to report at that time, and Jiang Xu also hopes that the café can be set up earlier.
Looking for a storefront, decoration, etc., according to Jiang Xu's expectations, it will take at least a week or so at the earliest.
However, Zou Rong's luck is obviously very good.
Not long after shopping, Zou Rong saw a coffee house that wanted to turn the table in a relatively quiet side street, the location of the side street was not bad, and the scale of this coffee house was about the same as Jiang Xu expected.
The decoration style of this coffee house is also the type that Zou Rong likes, with white tones as the main tone, giving people a sense of tranquility and elegance, and this coffee has only been open for less than three months, and there is almost no difference from the newly renovated storefront.
On top of that, the transfer price of this coffee house is not high.
It can be seen that the business of this coffee house is a bit bleak, otherwise it would not have been open for a few months and wanted to be transferred.
And this boss is also ready to lose money, his store pù and decoration and equipment combined, originally used nearly 300,000, and the final price of the turntable was only 200,000.
The price was already very low, and Jiang Xu didn't hesitate at all, so he directly ordered this coffee house.
The owner of the coffee house was also very simple, and all the formalities were completed that afternoon, and when it was almost dark, the owner of the coffee house became Zou Rong.
Because the business of the coffee house was very cold, after all the formalities were completed, Jiang Xu closed the door directly.
However, Jiang Xu did not leave, but hid in the coffee house with Zou Rong and began to study the kind of coffee Jiang Xu said.
At the bar of the coffee house, Jiang Xu is grinding coffee with a coffee machine, and the coffee beans he uses are also very ordinary, not a good product.
Zou Rong is looking at it seriously with beautiful eyes, and her beautiful eyes can be said to be full of anticipation.
The process was very simple, just a moment later, Jiang Xu put a cup of freshly ground coffee in front of Zou Rong and said, "Zou Rong, this is ordinary coffee, you taste it first." ”
"Hmm."
Zou Rong nodded, and then gently picked up the coffee.
Maybe it was because there was no sugar, just after tasting it, Zou Rong's delicate eyebrows were already slightly wrinkled.
Very bitter and also very average taste.
Although Zou Rong has never drunk any expensive coffee, she has still drunk cheap coffee, sometimes she learns late, sometimes she drinks tea to refresh herself, and sometimes she drinks those coffee bags for a dollar to refresh herself.
And at this moment, the coffee that Jiang Xu grinds out will not be much better than the kind of coffee she bought for a dollar a pack.
According to the price of this coffee house, such a cup of coffee is at least more than 15 yuan.
If Zou Rong was given the choice, she would definitely not come here to drink, for such a cup of money, she could buy fifteen packs in the supermarket, and the taste would not be much inferior.
"Does it feel like it tastes average?" As soon as Jiang Xu saw Zou Rong's appearance, he could already get the answer he wanted.
Basically, this kind of ordinary coffee beans can't grind good coffee at all, and really good coffee beans are not something that ordinary people can consume, and people who have the ability to consume them are basically impossible to come to this kind of small coffee house.
"Hmm."
Zou Rong nodded again, what she had to do at this time was to tell Jiang Xu her most intuitive feelings.
Jiang Xu just smiled slightly, he didn't say anything more, but began to grind the second cup of coffee.
The same coffee beans, the same grinding method, just a moment later, another cup of coffee was placed in front of Zou Rong.
It's just that this cup of coffee is a little different from the previous one, because this cup of coffee has been integrated into Jiang Xu's faint soul power essence.
It is for this reason that the smell of this cup of coffee is slightly different.
If the previous cup of coffee was just an ordinary coffee aroma, then this cup of coffee, in addition to the ordinary coffee aroma, has an additional mysterious fragrance that can attract the soul.
"It smells so good."
Just smelling the aroma of coffee, Zou Rong couldn't help but snort softly.
Jiang Xu didn't grind the coffee again, but stopped, and then said: "Zou Rong, you take another sip and take a look to see what the difference is in this feeling." ”
There was no need for Jiang Xu to say anything at all, Zou Rong had already picked up this new cup of coffee and tasted it again, this time, Zou Rong's reaction was almost worlds different from before.
There was no sign of wrinkling on her brows at all, on the contrary, on the contrary, on her pure and agile little face, a look of surprise and incredulity gradually appeared.
If the previous coffee was very ordinary, then at this moment, Zou Rong can be 100% sure that the second cup of coffee that Jiang Xu grinded far exceeded the first cup in any aspect.
Moreover, it was a wonderful feeling that could not be described in words, as if even the soul would be fascinated by it, Zou Rong really couldn't imagine how it was possible for coffee ground with the same coffee beans to have these two tastes so different.
Thinking about it, Zou Rong still responded very quickly: "Jiang Xu, this cup of coffee is definitely the best tasting coffee I have ever drunk,"
Zou Rong wanted to make an analogy, but she hadn't drunk those really expensive coffees, so naturally it couldn't be compared.
"If you put a price tag of 15 yuan on this cup of coffee, do you think anyone will want to drink it?" Jiang Xu continued to ask.
"I would definitely like to."
Zou Rong's answer was very affirmative, if she was not confident enough to invest in the café before, then this time, she was already 10,000 points of affirmation in her heart.
Regarding Zou Rong's reply, Jiang Xu did not have any surprised look on his face, because this qiē was all expected by him.
Taking out a pearl that had been infused with soul energy from his arms, Jiang Xu handed the pearl to Zou Rong and said, "Zou Rong, this pearl is what I call the unique formula." ”
"What?"
Looking at the pearl in Jiang Xu's hand, Zou Rong's beautiful eyes were suddenly filled with disbelief, she didn't expect that the formula Jiang Xu said would be such a white but dull pearl.
"You can try it, just put this pearl in the water in which the coffee is ground and you're good to go." Practice is undoubtedly the best explanation, Jiang Xu doesn't need to explain anything at all, just let Zou Rong grind a cup of coffee herself.
"Then I'll try."
Zou Rong did not refuse, she carefully picked up the pearl, and then put it into the water purification equipment connected to the coffee machine.
Just waited for a while, and then, Zou Rong began to grind the coffee by herself, although the action was a little rusty, but it only took less than a minute, Zou Rong also grinded a cup of coffee by herself.
didn't drink it, but Zou Rong already knew that what Jiang Xu said must be true.
Because the aroma of that cup of coffee is almost exactly the same as the second cup of coffee ground by Jiang Xu, there is no need to taste it at all, and Zou Rong can already get the answer she wants from it.
Zou Rong didn't drink it, but Jiang Xu picked up the cup of coffee that Zou Rong grinded out, and while drinking it, he asked, "How is it, it's very simple, right?" ”
"Well, it's really easy."
Zou Rong nodded excitedly, at this moment, all the worries in her heart had disappeared.
At this moment, she finally understood why Jiang Xu was so confident, how could such a wonderful taste not attract customers, and where would the business go.
Jiang Xu said: "Although this pearl is very small, there is no problem with using it for a few months, but the secret of this pearl must not be known to others except for my uncle and aunt." ”
Jiang Xu is not worried that the secret of the pearl will be known by others, except for him Jiang Xu, no one else can study the true secret of the pearl at all.
It's just this kind of thing, and the fewer people who know about it, the better.
"Well, I'll be careful."
Zou Rong responded seriously, Jiang Xu said so, she naturally knew the importance of this pearl very well.
Jiang Xu continued: "Okay, it's not early, let's go back first, tomorrow we will change the store, and then find some masters to decorate it, and the day after tomorrow it should be officially opened." ”
"Jiang Xu, what do you call the name of the café?" Zou Rong asked suddenly.
In Zou Rong's heart, the meaning of this café is obviously different, so she hopes to take a name that is related to Jiang Xu.
"You can call it whatever you like." Jiang Xu smiled slightly.
"Then I'll go back and think about it."
Zou Rong couldn't think of a good name for a while, but fortunately, there was no hurry in this matter, and there was still one night.
"Hmm."
Jiang Xu nodded lightly, and then walked out of the coffee house with Zou Rong.
After leaving the coffee house, Jiang Xu first sent Zou Rong back to Zou's house, and then drove back to the municipal party committee residential area.
When he returned home, Jiang Xu saw a familiar vehicle at the door of his house, which was Qingpingfeng's car, Jiang Xu originally thought that Qingpingfeng would come to Hu'an tomorrow, but he didn't expect Qingpingfeng to come over at this time.
Qingpingfeng is also here, Jiang Xu happens to have some cooperation matters to talk about with Qingpingfeng.
Jiang Qiming also came back at this time, and when Jiang Xu entered the house, he was chatting with Qing Pingfeng.
Qing Pingfeng came over alone this time, and Qing Yishang did not come to Hu'an with him, but went directly to Ningcheng's side-
5,000 words, continue tomorrow
