After the opening of Dingxiang Yuanshun, the next rizi, business became more and more prosperous.
Relying on word of mouth, a large number of repeat customers were born in a relatively short period of time and became the main consumer force.
The consumption power of customers on Helin Road significantly exceeds that of the snack street outside the north gate of the School of Management, among which there are many people in the society and few students. Most people enter the store and sit down to their heart's content, expertly ordering according to their tastes and preferences, and eating openly, without thinking much about their wallets.
When each table of guests checks out and leaves, there are often a large pile of bamboo skewers and empty porcelain plates left on the table, which makes people sigh at the strong appetite of consumers.
The 20% discount on the price only lasted for one day, and the original price was restored on the second day of opening. In this regard, some of the old guests who have been here many times and are more familiar with Mrs. Wu proposed to build yƬ, saying that the catering industry is now popular in the membership system, VIP card or something, cardholders can enjoy reservations, dining priority and price concessions, I hope that Ding Xiangyuan can also refer to it, of course, for these old customers should be given priority.
Aunt Wu informed Jiang Yichen of this opinion, and Jiang Yichen pondered for a while, but still shook his head and vetoed it.
Models such as membership system and VIP gold card, which are mainly used by restaurants to attract and retain customers, seem to have become a common practice in the industry, and there is nothing new. But the spicy hot food on my side is currently selling hot, and the supply exceeds demand, so there is no need to engage in this set of things, and it is even more meaningless to make profits. In addition, in the case of tight business area, customers are divided into three, six, nine, etc., which is not treated fairly, and it is easy to cause conflicts and disputes.
So this set is still forgotten, at most it is enough to remove a fraction at the time of checkout.
After listening to his analysis, Aunt Wu felt that it was also very reasonable, now that the store is strong, it is natural for the store to formulate its own rules. Then she politely rejected the regular customers.
In terms of the supply of raw materials for the restaurant, it is still provided by two vegetable sellers who Wu Damiang knew before.
At present, the number of ingredients consumed by restaurants every day is very large, especially the vegetarian vegetables such as green vegetables, lotus root slices, and tofu, which are even more considerable, so the enthusiasm of vegetable sellers to deliver goods to their homes has also soared.
In line with the principle of one guest and two masters, Aunt Wu made a list of ingredients, asked the vegetable seller to prepare according to the order, and if she didn't have it, she would buy it and send it together. This saves a lot of trouble.
At the same time, the mode of supply by two vegetable sellers is adopted to maintain a certain degree of competition, so as to eliminate problems such as opaque prices, unfresh ingredients, and untimely delivery.
In addition, since the business of the store is so prosperous, there is no need to save too much on the expenses in some places, except for the direct delivery of goods to the door by the vegetable sellers, the ventilation of gas canisters, and the purchase of rice, flour, grain and oil. Although it costs a little more than going there in person, it saves a lot of time and effort, and it is obviously worth it.
Aunt Wu wears many hats, and now she can't compare to the wild stall at the beginning, and there are many things in all aspects, such as logistics procurement, account management, reception of guests, food making, cleaning and hygiene, etc., everything has to be done, and she gradually feels powerless, and she is really too busy.
So, she listened to Jiang Yichen's manpower, went to the basement rental house where she originally lived, and asked acquaintances to see if there were suitable conditions who were willing to work in the Malatang restaurant.
Looking around, I met a neighbor, the family used to know Aunt Wu and met and talked.
It's a standard family of three, and the couple brings a boy to elementary school. Both of them are from other places and have been working in Lingjiang City for more than three years. The woman is in her thirties, named Zhang Fenglan, with a round face and short hair, big eyebrows and big eyes, and she looks very dry. She used to work as a line worker in a private toy factory, and later became a team leader, while her husband worked in an auto repair shop.
In recent years, in response to the international financial crisis, the main export business of the toy factory has been greatly affected, and it has been forced to reduce production capacity and lay off a number of employees. Zhang Fenglan was also unfortunately classified among this group of people.
Relying on the men's modest wages alone, the family lives tightly. After Zhang Fenglan rested for a while, she couldn't stay anymore, and planned to go out and find a job to subsidize the family, but she happened to run into Aunt Wu.
Aunt Wu liked this down-to-earth and virtuous woman very much, so she stepped up her recruitment. Zhang Fenglan heard that her place of work was not far from her residence, but she was also satisfied, because it was convenient for her to go home to take care of her children.
After talking for a while, the two sides reached an agreement. Zhang Fenglan went to work in the store, the probation period was one month, the salary was 1,800 yuan, two meals, and after the probationary period, 2,000 Wu Bai yuan was mentioned, and if the benefits were good, there were bonuses, festival expenses and other benefits.
In this way, the Malatang restaurant has added a main manpower, and it is finally not so nervous.
Regarding the business hours of the Malatang restaurant, Jiang Yichen also made a different arrangement. Although the number of clerks has increased, he does not plan to engage in the continuous business model of more than ten hours a day that is common to most of his peers in the catering industry, because it is really unnecessary.
So, after discussing with Aunt Wu, he set the daily business hours into two periods: open at half past ten in the morning and rest at half past one at noon. It opens at five o'clock in the afternoon and closes at half past seven. In addition, a notice will be posted to make an official announcement to customers.
Jiang Yichen's own side began to enter the internship stage. The school arranged for him and several other classmates to intern at a trading company in the north of the city.
Originally, they were still looking forward to the internship unit, thinking that they could learn something. Who knew that after going to work, the so-called internship was actually doing chores in the company, sorting out materials, typing, sending and receiving letters, picking up newspapers, moving things, cleaning, and everything had to be done, which was basically regarded as free labor. It has almost nothing to do with the e-commerce major I studied.
However, this is also a helpless thing, the head of the unit holds the power of internship appraisal, and the so-called people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.
Jiang Yichen and his classmates had to cheer up, follow the instructions, and were so busy every day that they didn't dare to arrive late and leave early.
At the end of the week, perhaps the department manager felt that these young men were doing a good job and were honest and obedient, so in addition to a free lunch, they also gave them a subsidy of 100 yuan each. Kind of an extra bonus.
Because the internship is similar to going to work, and there are three magic shows a week, Jiang Yichen has no spare time, and there are fewer opportunities to go to Dingxiangyuan.
Fortunately, Aunt Wu was very considerate of him, saying that as long as there were no problems with the supply of spices, the three people in the store would be able to handle other things, so that he didn't have to be too careful.
