(Thank you for the 200 coins tip from l599xl again, and thank you for the 100 coins tip from the book friend 2220717519~)
Gangneung City, Lu Province.
Lu Youan, the head of the Lu family, listened to the report of the housekeeper Lu Fang, and kept pacing in the house, his brows always locked.
"Is this Ning Kee Restaurant really as popular as you say?"
"Master, the little one has seen it with your own eyes. Although this Ning Kee Restaurant is not big, there is never an empty seat at the end of the day. The people queuing in front of the restaurant are eager to get to the square gate. ”
"Enough!"
A trace of resentment flashed in Lu Youan's eyes, and he said coldly: "It seems that the old man is still too careless about it." Originally, I thought that a shop selling cakes was not enough to worry about, but now it seems that the Ning family's appetite is not small. ”
"You don't need to worry too much, sir. When it comes to restaurants in Jiangling City, who doesn't know the drunken residence of our Lu family. That is the prestige accumulated in the past hundred years, which can not be compared with a small restaurant that has just emerged. ”
"Hmph, be prepared for danger in times of peace. If my Lu family is all of yours' arrogant and complacent atmosphere, it will be a matter of time before I am replaced by others. ”
"The master taught me a lesson. The little ones are wrong. ”
Lu Fang hurriedly smiled and said.
"What is the background of this Ning family?"
"Master, the little ones have been investigated clearly, this Ning family originally ran a steamed bun shop, and they didn't have a reputation. That was until they launched the finger cake and became famous for a while. Oh yes, and they've recently been selling something called soap, which is said to be used to wash clothes. It doesn't have much to do with restaurants. ”
"According to you, it's a shit-lucky pariah?"
Lu Youan sneered and said, "It's really overwhelming!" ”
"Master, do you want to bring some people to teach them a lesson?"
"There's no hurry. Salute first and then soldier, the best policy. You first come forward to talk to the steward of Ning Ji, if you can buy out the recipes of those dishes, it is better to see no blood. ”
"What does the master mean to spend a lot of money on the recipe?"
"Waste, did I say I would spend a lot of money to buy it? If you spend a lot of money, the old man still needs you to come forward? ”
"Well, my lord forgives me."
Lu Youan pondered for a moment and said, "The reason why Ning Ji Restaurant is the main customer is probably because of those private dishes. Fried chicken, skewers, pizza...... The name of this dish is really weird, in short, if Ning Ji loses these ace dishes, it will not pose any threat to the drunken house. You convey the old man's meaning to him clearly. He would rather sell the formula if he knew each other. If not...... Hugh blamed the old man for being ruthless. ”
Hearing this, Lu Fang already understood what his master meant.
This is to buy out the recipes of a few of Ning Ji's private dishes at a low price.
This is not an easy task, and if you can't get it right, you really have to solve it by force.
However, this is not something that the Rwanda side needs to worry about.
The Lu family does not say that they cover the sky with one hand in Jiangling City, but they are also a family that should not be underestimated.
It is that the successive county commanders and prefects have to give the Lu family some face.
Even if the Lu family really smashed the Ning Ji Restaurant, it would be nothing, and the government would turn a blind eye at most.
"The little one understands, so I'll do it."
......
......
"Third brother, I received a total of fifty-six taels of silver today, and after removing the capital, I should have earned thirty taels."
Shichiro settled today's accounts and waved his fists excitedly.
"Earned so much?"
Ning Xiu was also a little surprised.
The restaurant is still only in soft operation, and all dishes are half price. When the official business resumes to the original price, the money earned will be even more.
Sure enough, opening a restaurant is faster than selling cakes at the stall.
This is actually a question of consumer positioning.
The target group of finger cakes is ordinary people, who take the road of small profits and quick turnover.
The restaurant can accept a wide range of diners. It can be a dignitary, a wealthy businessman, and ordinary people can occasionally want to make a dozen tooth sacrifices.
In terms of dishes, the price of fried chicken and pizza is slightly higher, while the price of kebabs is lower, which is also to allow diners with different spending abilities to come to Ning Kee Restaurant to consume.
"Third brother, if we continue like this, our family can earn 10,000 taels of silver a year from the restaurant!"
What is the concept of 10,000 taels of silver?
This is definitely the level of a billionaire in later generations.
Even if it is a big salt merchant or a big tea merchant, taking an order is to earn this amount.
Of course, it can't be compared with corrupt officials, people have power in their hands, and it is not too easy to deduct some silver salaries from corruption.
"Shichiro, your assumption is too idealistic. Being able to earn thirty taels a day does not mean that you can earn this amount every day. It's a soft opening now, and there are many diners who come to try the cheap dishes. When the original price is restored, maybe not so many people will want to come and eat. ”
Ning Xiu felt the need to pour a basin of cold water on Qilang and let him calm down.
Otherwise, this little cub may not be able to swell into something.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in a dark green Shu brocade shirt walked in, and sat down without knowing it.
"Excuse me, guest officer. We are closed for today. ”
Shichiro hurriedly walked over and said with a smile.
"Out of business? The sun has just set, what kind of business is it resting on? You own a restaurant, do you still want to push diners outside? ”
The middle-aged man's face suddenly fell, and he asked sharply.
"Yes, yes, ......"
Shichiro blushed, but he didn't know how to answer.
"This guest officer, you must be the first time to come to Ning Kee Restaurant, right? Although we don't have a big record, we also have our own rules, and we don't open after sunset. ”
"Hmph, tell your boss to come out, and a stinky hairy kid wants to send me away?"
Ning Xiu smiled and said, "I am the young owner of this Ning Ji Restaurant, and what the guest officer has to say is the same as what I said." ”
"You ......"
The middle-aged man was obviously surprised, and after a moment of silence, he deliberately raised his voice.
"I heard that Ning Kee Restaurant has three uniques, fried chicken, grilled skewers, and pizza, can't Lu taste any of them today?"
"I'm sorry, rules are rules, and you can't make an exception for the guest officer."
Although Ning Xiu had a smile on his face, his attitude was very tough.
He had already seen that this person was not good, and he was obviously here to find fault.
For such a person, you must not be soft, as soon as you are soft, he will think that you are easy to bully.
"Haha, hahahaha...... So Lu has to wait until tomorrow to come again? ”
Ning Xiu nodded.
"The surname is Ning, you don't have to be arrogant. Isn't it just a few private dishes, do you think you can open a restaurant? ”
Qilang's cheeks were already flushed with anger, and he wanted to step forward to reason with this goods, but was stopped by Ning Xiu.
"It seems that the guest officer's trip is not as simple as eating vegetables."
Ning Xiu spread his hands and said, "In that case, you might as well say it clearly, it's better than everyone going around in circles here." ”
"Hmph, you kid has a bit of knowledge. To tell you the truth, I am the shopkeeper of Drunken Luju, and I came to your restaurant to buy fried chicken, skewers, and pizza recipes. If you know each other, you can sell the recipe, and everyone will be happy! ”
