Chapter 178 Losing money every day
Yi Liu was obviously delusional, looking at the figures of the loss in the past five or six days, Li Chengxun really couldn't hold back, threw the account book on the table with a snap, and said with an angry face.
"Why are you still losing money? I lost money on the first day, and it was because I called the girl from Wanhualou, and all kinds of dishes were free. ”
"In the next few days, there are not so many girls, and all kinds of dishes are also being charged, how can they lose so much?"
Whether it is Li Chengxun or Zhao Huan, they have never set foot in the restaurant industry before, they only think about using good gimmicks to attract customers, and they don't think so much about the others.
Although Zhao Huan didn't say much, but now that Fumanlou is handed over to him for management, if it is only a few days, he will lose his debts, Li Chengxun feels that he still has the face to see Zhao Huan.
Seeing the number of losses, Li Chengxun felt that he couldn't even compare to Yi Ling'er, and the anger in his heart naturally couldn't be restrained.
Hearing Li Chengxun's inquiry, Yi Liu glanced up at his expression, was a little scared in his heart, and subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and then said nervously.
"Boss, on the first day of our restaurant's opening, the loss is not a small amount."
"The girl who opened the house is called Wanhualou, and there is no way to make up for this money until now."
"The dishes that were free of charge for the event that day were almost all high-priced ingredients, although some were made up in the next few days, but they were far from enough."
"The prices of the dishes are all set, and there are many customers in the past few days, and almost all of them order these high-priced dishes, and we are all at a loss."
"In general, there is no way to make up for the silver on the first day, and then there will be such a big loophole in the past few days."
Yi Liu didn't dare to continue, Li Chengxun's eyes were too terrible, as if he was going to eat people, and his whole scalp was numb.
Li Chengxun really wanted to kill people, and he did spend a lot of money on the opening day, but then the business was too good in the past few days, and he didn't pay much attention to the price of the dishes.
Li Chengxun's face darkened, and he spoke after a while.
"Yi Liu, the girl from Wanhualou called a few people to come over every day to solicit guests, but the price of the dishes was raised for me, and we can't let our restaurant lose money."
Hearing Li Chengxun's order, Yi Liu's eyes showed a hint of embarrassment, and he didn't answer his words.
Without getting a reply, Li Chengxun raised his head and looked at Yi Liu with some confusion.
"What? If you have any ideas, just say it. ”
"Boss, the price of the dishes in our restaurant was posted at the beginning, and now almost everyone is already repeat customers, and rashly putting the price up may affect the business of the restaurant."
"What then? If we don't raise the price, our restaurant will always lose money, and no matter how good the business is, it will only lose more and more. ”
Having said that, Yi Liu still felt that such a rash increase in the price of the restaurant's dishes would cause a bad response.
But since Li Chengxun said so, he couldn't refute it, and after thinking for a while, he nodded.
"That's it, boss, let's raise the price of the dishes and give the osmanthus stuffed as a gift to the guests for free, see if this will work?"
Speaking of free Li Chengxun, he felt uncomfortable, but after thinking about it carefully, the current customers have accepted the previous price, and if they change it rashly, it will indeed cause dissatisfaction, send something out, and see if they can suppress these voices.
Thinking of this, Li Chengxun nodded.
"Just do as you say, remember for me, you can't go down at a loss, otherwise, we'll all have to drink the northwest wind."
Yi Liu naturally understands this truth, since the Yi Family Restaurant was seized, he has lived a life that is not a human life, and Fumanlou is now under his jurisdiction, and he must not let Fumanlou finish.
In the afternoon, the girl from Wanhualou came to sing a tune, although it was not Meng Yao, but it also attracted the attention of many people.
The hall of Fumanlou is already full at this time, and they are all for the cheap dishes of Fumanlou, the girls who serve them at dinner, and the music can be heard.
In the hall, the guy was already starting to serve the food, on the performance stage, the girl was also singing, and it was said that there would be a dance performance next, and the whole hall was lively.
The box is also full of friends, the business is very good, and it looks prosperous.
Everyone eats, drinks, listens to songs, and soon the time passes, and after they have eaten and drunk enough, they come to the counter to settle the bill.
"Guest officer, a total of three taels of silver, and the drinks are free."
Yi Liu was at the counter, and said with a smile, hearing a total of three taels of silver, the hand of the diner who took out the silver suddenly stopped, and looked up with a stunned face.
"What did you just say? How much silver? ”
The diner asked with a look of surprise on his face, his face full of disbelief.
Raising the price rashly, but not telling the customer, these are Li Chengxun's ideas, Yi Liu does not agree with it in his heart, but now that he has said it, he is not ready to back down again.
After thinking for a moment, Yi Liu said politely.
"Guest officer, what you ordered are the signature dishes of our restaurant, a few days ago it was an opening event, and the prices are halved, and many of them are given away for free."
"Now that the opening event has passed, all the dishes have returned to their original prices, and only the drinks are given away for free, so the dishes ordered by the guest officer today cost a total of three taels of silver."
When Yi Liu's words fell, the guests who were eating immediately exploded, pointing at Yi Liu and began to scold.
"Three taels of silver, why don't you rob someone?"
"What specialty dish did I order so expensive? That's not how your prices were the other day. ”
"Don't tell me that it's an opening event, since it's an opening event, why didn't you say it before?"
"Three taels of silver, even the Manchu and Han banquets are not so expensive, your Fumanlou is really dark, is it such a pit to catch an honest man?"
The person who was eating spoke loudly, attracting the attention of many people in an instant, and hearing his words, many people in the hall of Fumanlou all looked up in surprise and looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief.
They came to Fumanlou to eat, but they also liked the low quality of the dishes, and they were accompanied by girls to eat, and the girls sang songs, so they were uncomfortable.
But now the price of the dishes has actually risen, and I didn't say it before the price increase, which is unacceptable.
And the price, why is it so expensive?
A group of people looked at Yi Liu with an uproar, and at this time Yi Liu was also nervous, although he guessed that the guests would not buy it, but now the emotions of these people seem to be a little uncontrollable.
Yi Liu hurriedly looked at the guest in front of him with a smile.
"Guest officer, regarding the price of the dishes, we have already asked people to hang it up, you look at it."
Yi Liu stretched out his hand and pointed to a sign hanging above his head, the price on it had changed dramatically, but these people were used to the low price before, and they didn't notice it at all.
