Chapter 54 Brand Effect

On the third day, Wangjiang Restaurant officially launched the slush, without any publicity, the reputation of the slush spread all over Chengdu in the Mid-Autumn Festival night, attracting countless admiring fans, Li Qing deliberately built the brand, made different flavors, with March pink, desert flute sound, autumn color waves, cold smoke and other elegant names, and in the packaging of the pursuit of exquisite, only with the warm and turquoise Yuezhou celadon cup, or with the crystal clear Xingyao jade bowl, each is worth a lot of money, it has to be sold for fifty Wen, gradually, to Wangjiang Restaurant to taste slush has become the fashion of Chengdu high society, Every day, there is a lot of traffic in front of Wangjiang Restaurant, all kinds of luxury carriages are parked in the square, and more businessmen with low social status but rich waists come to express the improvement of cultivation taste with slush tasmo, and then the social status seems to rise.

The final effect of slush is the linear rise of Wangjiang Restaurant's turnover, like a rocket soaring into the sky, profits rolling like clouds, high profits bring employees high income, high income and create high efficiency, high efficiency and bring better service, Wangjiang Restaurant's operation has entered a virtuous circle, and gradually become the Chu Qiao of Chengdu Restaurant industry, leaving all competitors far away, and slush is the driving force behind Wangjiang Restaurant's rocket for nine days.

On this day, Li Qing was reviewing last month's accounts, for two consecutive months, the daily turnover of Wangjiang Restaurant was 800 guan, according to 50% of the profit, that is to say, in the past two months, the profit has reached 24,000 guan, and he Li Qing took 60 percent, that is, 14,000 guan, so that in a few months, his capital will be enough to make a big deal, '100,000 guan around his waist, riding a crane down Yangzhou' This has always been his wish.

There was a gentle knock on the door, "The owner, I want to discuss something with you" was the voice of the shopkeeper.

"Please come in!"

The door opened, revealing a smile that was not natural, but heartfelt, and he had never been so comfortable as he had been here for twenty months.

"Sit!"

Li Qing moved a chair and asked the shopkeeper to sit down.

"What's the matter? Go ahead! ”

Shopkeeper Xi sat down, a little cramped and uneasy, his words were slurred, but there was a trace of expectation in his eyes.

"That's the case, my second boy wants to worship Liu Ye as his master, I don't know if the proprietor can agree."

The words are very subtle, and the implication is that he wants to learn the technique of making slush, Liu Ye is Li Qing's first buddy, and now except for the two of them, he is the only one who has mastered the recipe and production process of slush.

Li Qing was silent, the face of the shopkeeper slowly turned red, he stood up hurriedly, and smiled slightly embarrassedly: "It's embarrassing for the proprietor." ”

"Shopkeeper!"

Li Qing suddenly stopped him.

"Is there anything else going on with the proprietor?"

After a moment of silence, Li Qing finally said: "It's not that I don't want to, I'm just afraid that Erlang will learn it, and I'm afraid that something will happen to me." ”

..............

A few days later, a dark cloud began to float over Wangjiang Restaurant, and the popularity of Wangjiang Restaurant finally aroused the eyes of competitors in the industry, and this competitor was none other than Li Qing's old rival - Haijia.

Since the Pony Bridge incident, the arrogant underworld seems to have disappeared overnight, and the Hai family has also been silent, but the silence is just waiting for the next opportunity, just like the tiger usually retreats before making a pounce, leaving a room to pounce and jump back, and then aim at the neck of the prey and bite down.

There are three main industries of the Hai family, selling rice, winemaking, and restaurants and brothels, of which there are more than 20 restaurants in Chengdu, large and small, the restaurant was originally in charge of Hai Zhongheng, and after the incident of the horse bridge, Hai Ming was in charge, his appearance was honest and honest, and he always had a smile on his face, and his subordinates reported one thing to him, he was at a loss at first, and after talking about it two or three times, he suddenly realized, but he couldn't explain the reason, and finally pushed the matter to the deputy Hai Jiu, so, His subordinates gradually became contemptuous of him.

This morning, Hai Ming was suddenly notified, the eldest brother asked him to go over to the meeting immediately, ran to the hall of the East Courtyard, the meeting was already halfway through, in addition to the eldest brother, there were two people, the third brother Hai Ba and his deputy Hai Jiu, this Hai Jiu is nominally Hai Ming's deputy, but in fact he is Hailan's henchman, he has real power, and he almost makes decisions about the restaurant, or bypasses Hai Ming and reports directly to Hailan.

In the center of the hall was a table with a ceramic basin containing half a pot of mud, which Heming immediately recognized, which was the slush that was in the limelight.

Two months ago, Wangjiang Restaurant suddenly launched this inconspicuous gadget, but it was this gadget that brought the whole restaurant industry to reshuffle, Wangjiang Restaurant stood out among several famous restaurants, its daily turnover was equivalent to the sum of several other restaurants, not only that, Wangjiang Restaurant also led to the general prosperity of restaurants in the area of Ximaqiao, another restaurant concentration: East Market, business has become obviously deserted, and most of the wine of the Hai family are concentrated in the East Market.

The half basin of slush that appeared in front of him made Haiming immediately guess the intention of the eldest brother, and he also wanted to make slush.

Wangjiang Restaurant has always been a scar in Heilan's heart, but as he looked up at it from a higher and higher angle, this scar gradually began to become red and swollen, began to suppurate, and began to feel unforgettable pain, and jealousy had almost eaten away his patience, making him unable to continue to sit idly by.

"Second brother, you are the only person in our Hai family who has tasted slush in Wangjiang Restaurant, how about you come and taste the slush we prepared ourselves?"

Although the voice was small, it was like lightning and thunder in Haiming's ears, and he was so startled that he almost jumped up, "How did he know that he had been to Wangjiang Restaurant?" "He had only gone quietly once in the previous two days, alone, still at night.

"Is someone stalking you?"

Haiming's heart was confused, but his face was still smiling.

"Huh! The slush is really delicious, I like it the most, if our Hai family can also make it, it will be my blessing. ”

Hai Ming took the small bowl and took a sip, but a touch of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and then he laughed dryly and said, "It tastes good!" ”

But the disappointment in his eyes couldn't escape Hailan's sharp eyes, listening to his casual perfunctory, Hailan sneered and said: "Second brother, you have to be honest, how does our slush compare with the slush of Wangjiang Restaurant?" ”

"Does Big Brother really want to listen to the truth?"

"Naturally, otherwise what else did I ask you to do?"

Hai Ming hated it in his heart, what is this, is it just to taste a bowl of slush when he asks himself to come here? If you have a meeting but don't have your own share, do you still think you are the head of the restaurant?

"To be honest, it's too far away, it can't be compared at all, the taste is not right, people's that is slush, and we can only call it snow slag at most, that kind of delicate taste is not at all, there is even ice slag in it, I think if the average person has eaten the slush of Wangjiang Restaurant, they will never eat Haijia slush again."

Heilan's face changed slightly, "Second brother, it's nothing to do with you, you can go!" ”

He looked at him coldly and went away, and ordered the table to be carried out, and then he called the two to his side, and whispered, "There are two things that you should do separately." ”

"Haijiu!"

"Master, I'm here!"

"Although we don't know the recipe for this slush, I don't think it's Li Qing who makes it himself, there must be someone to do it, your task is to find that person, no matter what means you use, you must get the formula, understand?"

"The subordinates understand, and the subordinates will go."

After he left, Heilan was silent for a long time, and suddenly sighed and said, "Third child, for so many years, I haven't been as tired as I am today. ”

"I think the eldest brother is too worried, a hairy boy, only a few months after opening the store, what waves can he make."

Haiba is more than ten years younger than Hailan, as his name suggests, his shoulders are thick, his huge body is like a barrel, his face is bearded and broad-faced, but his two mighty and calm eyes reveal the shrewdness of this person, just as the skeleton said, he is indeed the master behind Emeitang, with the arrogance of his actions, this is already an open secret in the underworld world.

His eyes opened slightly, faintly flashing with fine light: "Our Hai family has been working hard for nearly a hundred years, has strong financial resources, and has a power that never shows itself to the outside world, with these, what is the eldest brother afraid of?" ”

"I'm not afraid, I'm worried, this person just entered the Wangjiang Restaurant, our Hai family planted a big fight, less than a month this person suddenly made a surprise move, stealing the limelight, I have an ominous premonition, this person will become a big trouble for my Hai family sooner or later, it should be removed as soon as possible, the third, you must know, people have no foresight, there must be near worries!"

Haiba nodded silently, the eldest brother is right, you must not raise a tiger for trouble, "Then what is the plan of the eldest brother?" ”

"I'm most worried about his identity, although it is rumored that he is a clan, but I still have some suspicions, a month ago I sent someone to the capital to investigate the situation of the clan, and reported that there was no one named Li Qing in the clan at all, maybe a pseudonym, but I haven't heard of a clan coming to Chengdu recently, not only that, at the Mid-Autumn Festival birthday banquet, all the clans in Jiannan Road sat at the first table and the second table, and this Li Qing was ranked at the tenth table, what does this mean?"

"Is the rumor false?"

"Maybe!" Heilan smiled coldly and said: "This is the task I want to give you, I just got a message yesterday, slush is not the first time it has appeared, it was popular in Langzhou a few months ago, I want you to send the most powerful person to Langzhou to investigate in detail, maybe you can find out some clues." ”
