Chapter 8: The First Guest

There are many similarities between restaurants and pharmacies, for example, in terms of location, both are suitable for opening in commercial areas with high foot traffic and convenient transportation, so that customers can easily find out and come to the door as soon as possible when the other party needs it.

The herbal medicine hall left by Mr. Wu is located in a prosperous area with a strong commercial atmosphere. The street in front of the store is called Hanzheng Street, and there are many shops on both sides, especially restaurants, so it is not too much to call it a food street.

Wormwood bars are open on this street, and there are pros and cons.

The advantages are obvious, most pedestrians walk into Hanzheng Street, just to eat, itself with this kind of consumption demand. Gourmet shops are located in food streets, which can give full play to the advantages of agglomeration effect and attract the attention of diners.

But at the same time, the drawbacks are obvious.

On the whole street, there are too many competitors in the wormwood bar, and many restaurants are still time-honored brands, which have accumulated a good reputation in the minds of Goose City people. Wu Bencao is a fledgling, and it is not easy to quickly snatch away their customers.

It's hard to get started.

Although he is full of confidence in Kaimai soup, how to open the situation, successfully let people come in and have a look, and even spend six yuan stones to drink a bowl of soup, this is a difficult problem. After all, everyone often has a favorite goal, and may not be willing to spend money on a teenager's cooking skills.

No matter how hard it is, you have to start.

Wu Bencao specially asked someone to pick an auspicious day, bought a large number of firecrackers, hired a lion dance team, and prepared to have a lively scene on the opening day, making a lot of movement and brushing a wave of presence.

Unfortunately, there are unforeseen circumstances.

From the early hours of the morning, torrential rain fell throughout the city......

His opening plan was ruthlessly strangled in the cradle by God. The opening of this kind of thing, the auspicious time is the most important, it is related to the fortune of the store, and it cannot be changed at will, and if you miss it, you will miss it, and you can't do it again.

So, Wu Bencao sat at the door, looking at the cold and unmanned streets and alleys in the rain, and quietly opened.

"Isn't it a good sign that I was doused with cold water on the first day...... Looking at this rain, most of them can't stop today, and I hope it can really open......"

The task assigned to him by the system is to add 2 new fans and gain 500 fan points, he originally thought that only two people would be a problem, but now it seems that even recruiting one customer has become a luxury.

The autumn rain is wet and cold, bringing people the most uncomfortable, to the lunch point, there are still few pedestrians on Hanzheng Street, Wu Bencao knows that it is difficult to have business today, ready to close in advance, go to the back kitchen and eat hot pot with Xiao Ai.

When the door was closed, a figure suddenly rushed out of the rain curtain in front of him, with a vigorous and agile posture, and quickly ran towards this side, and soon came to the door of the wormwood bar, and stretched out his hand to block the door of the store that was about to close.

"I said Wu Bencao, it closed early on the first day of opening, did you do this business?"

The person who came was a thin young man, with fair skin, good facial features, and a little red mole in the middle of his eyebrows, which was very eye-catching.

Without waiting for Wu Bencao to answer, he twisted his waist and took the opportunity to flash into the house, destroying Wu Bencao's idea of closing.

He would not have thought that his words would become a prophecy, and he would say the most hated habit after Wu Bencao.

Wu Bencao sighed, after a three-month internship period, he had gradually adapted to the life of the host, and became familiar with a few friends, especially Wang Xiang, who was difficult to talk about in front of him.

He threw a dry towel to Wang Xiang and said distressedly: "Catching up with this kind of ghost weather, who wants to go out except for you, a monkey who loves to jump up and down?

In his previous life, he was in the countryside, and his grandparents looked at the weather forecast on time every day, and he still thought it was too earthy. Now that he has traveled to another world, he realizes what a primitive and beautiful wish it is to be able to predict the weather.

If I knew this, I didn't choose to open today.

Wang Xiang put away the oil-paper umbrella, wiped his hands, and complained: "Do you think I am willing to go out?" If it weren't for Widow Zhang's saying that your restaurant is open today, I wouldn't have bothered to come over to join in the heat...... Forget it, it's not lively at all. ”

He sat down on the chair and slapped the table hard, "If there is anything delicious, just serve it to the young master, let me do your first business!"

Wu Bencao cleaned up the muddy water on the ground, and didn't immediately go to the back kitchen to prepare, "Are you sure you want to eat?" I think you'd better take a look at the price. ”

"What kind of money is not money, you know that I have always been generous, how can I be stingy with this little money?"

Wang Xiang gathered his luxurious clothes, glanced at the price list on the wall with disdain, and almost dropped his jaw in shock, "Damn! A bowl of soup of hope is sold for six yuan stones, which is too expensive!"

The Soup of Hope is the new name given by Wu Materia Medica to the Kaimai Soup, which is intended to bring hope to those who are unable to practice.

If you continue to call it Kaimai soup, not only will it not sound good, but it will also make people who have already opened the pulse give up buying, which is not conducive to making money.

Wang Xiang regretted it instantly, he knew that the price was so expensive, even if he had a hundred more chances with him, he wouldn't say big things.

Wu Bencao smiled, "You are willing to come to cheer, I have received your heart." When I make a lot of money, please drink a bowl of soup, it just opened today, don't blame Boss Wu for being too stingy, let's drink the soup another day. ”

It's not that he's unrighteous and reluctant to invite his friends to drink soup, but that all the ingredients are provided by the system, and 80% of the selling price is charged as the cost. If he doesn't collect Wang Xiang's money, he has to pay for the ingredients himself, how can he lose money just after opening.

Wang Xiang sighed, his expression very unhappy.

He is a man who wants to save face and does not want to be looked down upon by his friends. If Wu Bencao said "You can't regret it", he would definitely be cheeky and regret it, but Wu Bencao treated him sincerely, making him feel that if he broke his word and regretted it, it would be too unrighteous enough.

I ordered the soup myself, and I had to finish it with tears in my eyes.

"At such a pitted price, you dare to hang it out, not afraid of being laughed at, I don't dare to buy it?" Wu Bencao, hurry up and order a few more lights, your shop is too dark......

He was dripping blood in his heart, a whole six yuan stones! What kind of concept is this? Usually he goes to another restaurant to eat, orders four dishes and one soup, at most only two yuan stones, drinks a bowl of Wu Bencao soup, the price actually triples, and dare to say that this is not a black shop?

Wu Bencao frowned, and said unhappily: "How many times have you said it, just your lame accent, don't call him by his name, call me Angkor, or Brother Cao!"

Wang Xiang is a foreigner, and when he was a child, he came to Goose City with his father to do business, and he never changed his strong local accent. When he pronounced the word "Ben", he always habitually pronounced it as "north", and as soon as the speed of his speech accelerated, he became Wu was grass, Wu was grassed, and Wu was grassed......

Wang Xiang supported his cheek with one hand, and when he heard Wu Bencao's complaint, he smiled and said, "I call you Brother Cao, do you dare to cheapen a piece of Yuan Stone?"

Wu Bencao didn't say anything.

Wang Xiang waved his hand and urged: "Okay, I know that you are an iron rooster, I won't embarrass you, go and serve the soup, and freeze Lao Tzu to death!"

Wu Bencao didn't hesitate any longer, walked to the back kitchen, and said in his heart that the first transaction was taken care of by a friend, and it was finally opened, and he had to repay this favor in the future.

Soon, he came back with the soup and put it on the table, "Xiang, hurry up and drink it while it's hot." ”

Wang Xiang was not at the table at this time, but stood on the side of the room with his hands in his hands, and stretched out his hand to the rows of empty beds, "You explain, explain what's going on? Open a restaurant and sell beds? In addition, why are there only six dining tables?"
