Chapter 9 Forced Buying and Gathering Half Immortals
This day is sunny, it is an auspicious day of the zodiac, it is advisable to travel, and it is advisable to buy a restaurant.
After two days of touching and stepping on the spot, Li Shan has already understood the situation of this gathering of half-immortals clearly. Early in the morning, Li Shan took Sun Helian to kill the half-immortals violently. There are not many people who come to the restaurant to eat in the morning, and the courtyard is very deserted. The shopkeeper looked at the two sons coming over and was also enthusiastic, and said, "Two guest officers, what do you want to eat?" Li Shan didn't go around the bush and went straight to the point: "Call your boss to come, we have to talk to him about the price of this restaurant." ”
After a while, I watched a lean man walk in from the backyard, and said to Li Shan and the others: "Two sons, the contemptible Hou Zhengqian is the boss of Jubanxian, I heard that the two of you are interested in my restaurant, please follow me to the private room on the second floor." He made a gesture of please. Li Shan looked at this boss, his thin figure was diametrically opposed to the appearance of the shopkeeper of Yuelai Restaurant, and said in his heart: No wonder you can't compete with Yuelai Restaurant, and you are not a person to open a restaurant. In fact, Li Shan himself is also very thin, but he doesn't think of his own problems!
Sitting in the private room, Li Shan said bluntly: "Boss Hou, you can hurry up how much this restaurant sells, just open a price, if we think it is appropriate, we can sign a contract today." Hou Zhengqian smiled and said: "Childe is so refreshing and contemptible that he can't twist it, you see that I am adjacent to Changhu Lake in the north and Dongshi in the south, and the flow of people is dense and the feng shui is good." Besides, I'm a ten-year-old brand for ten years, and how many customers look at our Ju Banxian brand. It's not too much if it's eight hundred taels, don't you say? ”
Li Shan couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he saw him blowing nonsense, how can you fool me with this little trick, and you have already investigated your family background. Slowly and leisurely picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip and said: "This Sichuan Xiangyu tea is a fine tea, and the entrance is sweet, I usually like it, but why does it taste a little wrong today?" Boss Hou's face changed, and he stammered a little: "Childe, you can't talk nonsense, the shop has always been reputation-oriented, and the things used are all real materials." There are receipts for the ingredients for this supply, and if you don't believe in the son, you can ......" Li Shan was too lazy to listen to his quibbles, and interrupted: "Boss Hou, I believe my tongue more than your words." You don't have to sell it anymore, let's give a real price, don't think that we are so easy to deceive because we are readers. ”
This Hou Zhengqian has also been in business for many years, and his eyesight is not bad, but he didn't expect to look away today, these two little dolls don't look like they can be fooled! So he smiled and said: "The son is knowledgeable and admirable." Ming people didn't say secret words before, and the contemptible people really wanted to make friends with the two, so let's do it, the price is five hundred taels. This half-immortal will belong to the two of them. "Five hundred taels is not a low price, but it is not too high for such an old store. However, this is not the price Li Shan wants, Li Shan sneered: "If the signboard of Ju Banxian was placed two years ago, maybe I could still consider it." Now, a declining signboard has no value in my eyes. Boss Hou should know very well that in Jingzhou now, there is only the gold-lettered signboard of Yuelai Restaurant, and there is no place to gather half-immortals. ”
Hou Zhengqian was not to be outdone: "I admit that Yuelai Restaurant is indeed hot now, we are not as good as Yuelai Restaurant, but Jubanxian is indeed worth this price, just this location, this decoration, this is all sandalwood." Moreover, I have no shortage of sellers, let alone five hundred taels, even if I pay eight hundred taels, some people rush to buy them. If the two sons are shy, I can't help it. When Sun Helian heard this, he jumped up angrily and said, "What did you say, who said that we ......" was dragged by Li Shan halfway through his words, and he was forced to hold back.
Li Shan signaled Sun Helian not to speak, and then said to Hou Zhengqian: "Boss Hou, don't waste your time. It's a good restaurant, but I'm sure no one will buy it. Not to mention the price you offered, now everyone can see that Yuelai Restaurant is doing so prosperous, no one can compete with them at all, and they are waiting to lose money when they buy this restaurant. I know, you're saying you can sell to Panda Restaurant. I think Yuelai Restaurant has also found Boss Hou, but if I were the owner of Rulai Restaurant, I would definitely not give you a high price, because in my opinion, you are already meat on the chopping board and can't run. Moreover, I don't think Boss Hou will be willing to give up the restaurant to Yuelai Restaurant. In other words, only we can buy this restaurant, and today we are bound to get it, you have to sell it, if you don't sell it, you have to sell it! ”
Listening to Li Shan's words, Boss Hou pondered for a long time, sighed and said, "Alas, the son is really like a god. Hou admired, please ask the son to make a price, as long as it is not too excessive, Hou will sell this restaurant to the son. ”
In the end, Li Shan used 300 taels of silver to buy the restaurant. Out of the restaurant, Sun Helian said excitedly: "This is so cool, look at the helpless look of Boss Hou, it's really a god, how do you know that Yuelai Restaurant is going to buy Ju Ban Xian, and how do you know that Boss Hou will definitely not sell Ju Ban Xian to him?" ”
Li Shandao: "It's very simple, when we went to Yuelai Restaurant yesterday, I specifically asked Boss Song." If I want to say how do I know why Boss Hou won't sell the restaurant to him, it's very simple, the two stores are so close, there must have been a lot of friction between each other over the years, the bickering is small, and it must be common to make stumbling tricks behind the scenes. As the saying goes, peers are enemies, let alone two peers who are so close. Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, Boss Hou will never sell Jubanxian to Yuelai Restaurant. Sun Helian listened and said thoughtfully: "I didn't expect there to be so many Taos here, it's really not simple." Li Shan smiled: "Yes, there is a lot of knowledge here, study hard." ”
Li Shan, the original cook of Jubanxian, did not dismiss any of them, and directly accepted them all. Zhang Yanzhao is responsible for the personnel scheduling of the shopkeeper and responds, and Zhao Long and Zhao Hu are responsible for the logistics work such as purchasing ingredients. Li Shan also selected the best three from the cooks and taught them how to stir-fry vegetables in a frying pan, how to grill lamb skewers, how to bake bread, etc. Then there is to find a group of singers who play lyrics and sing songs, teach them how to sing water tune songs, and rehearse some new dances for them. In this way, I was busy for more than half a month.
Li Shan divided the shares of the restaurant into ten shares, Li Shan monopolized fifty percent with technical shares plus principal, the two brothers and sisters of the Sun family took twenty percent, Liu Ruyan took twenty percent, and the remaining one percent Li Shan decided to divide it equally among all the staff in the restaurant as a dividend at the end of the year. This way of doing business is really unheard of, but the following work is very excited to hear the news, and there is a boss who is willing to share the money earned with them, which is really undreamable, so the work is also hard work. Sun Helian admired it again and again, Li Shan's method was clever.
The preliminary work of the restaurant is basically completed. However, the candidate for this boss stumped Li Shan, and he himself definitely couldn't do it, and the same Sun Helian and Liu Ruyan couldn't do it. In the end, it turned out to be Li Shan's mother who took the initiative to ask Ying to be the boss lady, and over the years, Li's mother has pulled Li Shan to grow up alone, and she has taken care of the housework by herself, and she is familiar with this kind of thing, and Li Shan can rest assured. Li Shanben had no intention of letting his mother work, but after thinking about it, he really couldn't find a suitable candidate, but fortunately, he was only a nominal boss, as long as he came out and said two sentences to show his identity when he opened. Li Shan thought that there was no more suitable candidate, so he relied on his mother.
Li Shan found a mid-range courtyard house not far from the restaurant, and bought it smoothly for forty taels of silver. There was not much left of the four hundred taels of silver in the blink of an eye, but fortunately, there was an entry soon.
Zhang Yanzhao looked at Li Shan and drew a cute fat man on a piece of rice paper, and wrote three big characters next to it, please Xiange, and asked: "Brother Shan, what are you doing, this name is good for Xiange, but what is the same fat man next to this person." "Li Shan drew Doraemon, but of course Zhang Yanzhao didn't know what it was." This is the trademark of our restaurant, and people will know that it is our restaurant when they see it in the future. In fact, Li Shanben wanted to paint something more beautiful, but he didn't learn to paint, he could only paint a little fur, and painting Doraemon was already the limit. Li Shan gave the painted things to Yan Zhao and said: "You go to find someone to make a plaque, this fat man must paint it, and you go to buy a few rolls of red cloth, I will make advertising banners." ”
"Brother Shan, what is an advertising banner?"
"You don't have to ask about this, you'll naturally know when the time comes, go quickly."
Now that all the preparations have been completed, it is time to open the door. chose an auspicious day of the zodiac and handed posts to all officials, gentry and wealthy businessmen in Jingzhou. Li Shan personally wrote a banner slogan, what is the opening of the fairy pavilion, all the drinks are free, please the secret barbecue of the fairy pavilion is free to taste, it is not delicious, no money, etc., and invited a few gongs and drums to pull the banner in Jingzhou for three days. Now in Jingzhou, everyone knows that Jubanxian Pan has given a mysterious rich businessman, and now it is a new look, preparing a variety of new dishes, just waiting for everyone to feast on it.
