As for Li Mingbao's ideas, Li Guangxin is obviously happy to see them come to fruition. Originally, the idea of this barbecue stall was Li Mingbao's idea, and now Li Mingbao has the idea of becoming bigger and stronger, and Li Guangxin naturally will not object.

Now that we have unified our minds, the next thing is much easier. If you want to expand, and you can't collapse the chassis when you expand, then the original loose management method must be formalized.

First of all, the brand of Li Ji barbecue must be regularized, at least it must be registered in the industry and commerce, and it will become a chain company, and it is quite simple to open a company in Hong Kong, and it can be quite good for a few hundred Hong Kong dollars. The barbecue stall doesn't need to have an office or anything like that, everything is on the stall.

In terms of management, Li Mingbao was originally responsible for this matter, but Li Mingbao pulled his eldest brother Li Mingyao out. The eldest brother is talented, he can throw Li Mingbao a few streets, he only managed one Li Ji Tea Restaurant before, which is definitely a model of overkill, and Li Ji Tea Restaurant has been operating until now, in fact, there is nothing to manage at all, even if it is a person like the third brother and the fourth brother who can only fight and kill, he can also make the tea restaurant good, not to mention that even if Li Mingyao is dug up, there will be an aunt and father to manage it, so there is no need to worry about it at all.

Li Mingbao believes that under the management of the eldest brother, such a trivial meaning as a barbecue stall will definitely be made orderly by the eldest brother. After all, these things of the company are virtual, and if you want to lay down such a big stall at once, the supply of raw materials must be fully guaranteed. The work of barbecue skewers can't be done like the previous month, by the Li family's own part-time work, if you really want to do that, the tea restaurant doesn't need to be opened, counting the original barbecue stall, and then there are ten branches, a total of eleven barbecue stalls The amount of materials must be done by a special person, fortunately, the Li family is not lacking in manpower, and there is no need for uncles to come forward, and the aunts will be able to solve such a problem by five or six.

In terms of raw materials, Li Mingyao was dug up by Li Mingbao, and immediately began to do this work, in the past, just ordinary vendors were able to provide the amount of tea restaurants and barbecue stalls, but now there are so many sales channels, the previous channels are not very suitable, fortunately, as long as there is money in Hong Kong, there are few things that cannot be done, Lee Kuan Yew only took one day to draw up a new contract, because the Li family used a very large amount of materials, Li Mingyao even signed a very preferential contract.

As for customizing the logo, creating a new barbecue grill didn't take much effort. The most important negotiation of the new stall of the branch did not take much effort, Li Mingyao just pulled his third and fourth brothers over and walked around, and all the problems were solved, plus Li Mingyao's own bid was not low, and there was no business that could not be negotiated with both soft and hard.

During this period, Li Mingbao's task was to invite those uncles whose lives were not so satisfactory, and then teach the problems that the barbecue restaurant needed to solve in groups. Next, it is necessary to take advantage of the booming barbecue business of Li Ji to hit the barbecue market.

From the beginning of April when Li Kee Barbecue began to operate, to now preparing for a large-scale expansion, Li Mingbao only took a little more than a month to achieve a certain height of a project that was originally completely absent on Hong Kong Island, even if Hong Kong life is fast-paced, Li Mingbao's expansion can be regarded as a model.

On the night of May 8th, among the most prosperous night markets in Hong Kong, the plaque of Li Kee barbecue was propped up. Although the other ten stores are all newly opened, due to the experience of opening the first store, the other ten stores are opened in an orderly manner, and each newly opened store is equipped with two barbecue masters, five serving guys, and a cashier who settles accounts. Even if it is a hot place, it can quickly get what customers need. This staffing is definitely a lesson learned from the poor preparation when the first store opened.

And Li Mingbao is also quite shameless, and wrote the things he boasted about indiscriminately on the signboard of Li Ji Barbecue, the delicacies of the rich, and the prices of the commoners. Although Li Mingbao still doesn't know which rich man in Hong Kong likes to eat barbecue, it doesn't prevent him from using this to advertise, anyway, he didn't name which rich man likes to eat barbecue, and there won't really be any big guy who doesn't like such a sign.

And Li Mingbao's advertisement is indeed very marketable, those people in other parts of Hong Kong may have heard of barbecue before, but they have not really eaten it in Causeway Bay, and now such a barbecue stall happens to open at their doorstep, if you don't want to eat it, it seems that it is unreasonable. As a result, the ten newly opened barbecue stalls, adhering to the hot business of the first barbecue stall, are doing quite well.

When the sales of the first day began to be counted on the second day, the dazzling sales almost did not blind Li Guangxin and Yang Qing. Eleven barbecue stalls, the first day of sales actually reached a height of 20,000. You know, the cost of barbecue in the large-scale procurement, and has been greatly reduced, only counting materials, not counting labor, the gross profit of barbecue can basically reach about 70 percent, that is to say, the material money only accounts for 30 percent of the cost, and this is still in the case of material quality assurance, in exchange for money, 20,000 sales, the material money is only 6,000 yuan.

Of course, the net profit is not calculated in this way, but also need to calculate the labor cost, the expansion of the barbecue stall, Uncle Chen as the first barbecue master of the barbecue stall, and also taught other uncles barbecue skills, Li Ji barbecue shares, he owns five percent. In addition to Uncle Chen's salary, the salaries of other uncles are about 8oo Hong Kong dollars, some are more, such as the barbecue master is 200 more, and the accountant is also more, about 1,000 Hong Kong dollars.

Although this salary is much less than the salary of teachers and those white-collar workers, it is very generous for the uncles, before they worked, it was generally only five or six hundred Hong Kong dollars, and when it came to Li Ji, it was basically at least two hundred yuan more, and the work intensity was not as great as the previous work, which can be said to be quite easy.

Coupled with the cost of the lease, it probably occupies a layer of cost. If calculated according to the turnover of 20,000 yuan, the turnover of the barbecue stall in a month will be about 600,000 Hong Kong dollars, and all kinds of costs can account for half of the turnover, that is, fifty percent, the preliminary calculation, the net profit of the Li family in a month of the barbecue stall can actually reach 300,000 Hong Kong dollars, and the annual profit can reach 3.6 million Hong Kong dollars, even if there are some unexpected situations and other things, reducing the profit of 600,000 yuan, then the Li family can earn 3 million Hong Kong dollars a year just by relying on the barbecue stall.

Three million Hong Kong dollars was definitely not a small amount for any Hong Kong person in the late 70s, and now the Li family can make so much money just by relying on a small barbecue stall, how can it not make Li Guangxin and Yang Qing's heartbeat soar?

You must know that when the Li family came to Hong Kong, the total capital was less than one million Hong Kong dollars, and even if the family's real estate and tea restaurant are added now, one million Hong Kong dollars will only be in the first place. But there is no comparison between the one million Hong Kong dollars more than ten years ago and the current one million Hong Kong dollars, and the money will always depreciate. And now just relying on Li Mingbao's brain, he can triple his family property in a year, which really makes Li Guangxin, who is used to seeing the scene, a little blind.

After getting this number after repeated calculations, Li Mingbao's eldest brother Li Mingyao couldn't help but jokingly say: "Little Wu, I didn't expect you to be a blockbuster, it seems that the eldest brother will have to give you a hand in the future, remember to take care of the eldest brother and me when the time comes." ”

The eldest brother's words made Li Mingbao embarrassed, you know, at home, although everyone has a good relationship, but if he jokes, he will at most get it with the second brother, the third brother and the fourth brother, anyway, in his impression, the eldest brother basically didn't joke with him, and this was the first time. Although the Li family is now broken, the famous words of the eldest brother such as his father are still observed at home.

And now the eldest brother has the heart to joke with him, which shows that his status in the family has been substantially improved. No matter how much you say, it's better to do it beautifully. If there is no fact that there is a barbecue stall now, and Li Mingbao has been talking about it, I want to earn one million today, and I want to make two million tomorrow, let alone the eldest brother, even his fourth brother will not believe it.

Li Mingbao still remembers that when he came out of the hospital more than a month ago, he told his fourth brother in the tea restaurant that he wanted to make money, but the fourth brother didn't believe it at all, and gave Li Mingbao all the money on his body, not even the steel hammer. At that time, it was equivalent to Li Mingbao playing a mouth cannon, and he didn't have any chips in his hand, and his fourth brother definitely didn't believe it.

And now, seeing that the barbecue stall is really profitable, if Li Mingbao has any new ideas, everyone will definitely not laugh it off, but will seriously consider whether what Li Mingbao said is feasible.

And with such a starting point, Li Mingbao can also start to implement his ambitions. After all, something like a barbecue stall, for Li Mingbao, is a small road, there is nothing to be proud of, what he can really make money is still in the entertainment industry, there, is where he really wields his talents, and things like barbecue stalls, maybe you can make three or five million in the first year, but in the second year, the profit will drop by at least 30 percent, and in the future stable period, you can have half of the current profits, which are all quite well-run, after all, there are no industry barriers. It's very easy for others to leverage the market.

And something that is really valuable, like Intel's processor, is not so easy for others to imitate even if they want to. And although Li Mingbao will not be Intel in the future, the knowledge in his head will be like Intel, with strict entry barriers, which is what really makes money.
