Chapter 240: Trial Operation

The figures Wang Gaoming said are not untrue, but obtained by calculating the approximate cost of ingredients.

The restaurant uses fresh, mid-to-high-quality ingredients, and according to the gross profit margin of 60%, it is not a problem to earn 35,000 in 15 days.

A fried chicken is 90 yuan, each of the three set meals is 60 yuan, a glass of soda is 10 yuan, and a cup of coffee is 20 yuan...... According to the per capita consumption of 70 yuan, in fact, as long as Li Yichen and his team can receive an average of 56 customers a day, they can reach it.

Is it hard to accommodate 56 customers?

It's not hard at all.

Just have hands.

Fifteen days later, 35,000 will be given to the program team, and Li Yichen and they will still have 288 left.

So Wang Gaoming bit 35,000 to death and didn't back down at all.

He doesn't necessarily want Li Restaurant to be profitable, but he just wants to pass this rule to give Li Yichen and them a sense of urgency and pressure, and make the show more interesting.

"That's it, it's still thirty-five thousand, but in the end, how much you can earn will be donated to charity in your name."

"Really?"

Li Yichen was a little moved, if he did this, their hard work would become more meaningful, and many people could benefit.

"So let's do it, how much can we earn in the end, the program team will double it and donate it to charity in the name of the five of us."

"Deal!"

So after more than half an hour of tug-of-war, Li Yichen finally negotiated with Wang Gaoming and reached a consensus.

Lee's restaurant has two operating hours, five hours a day.

Three hours at noon, eleven to two o'clock, two hours in the evening, five to seven o'clock.

Li Yichen and Chen Yihua ate takeout while roughly calculating the cost.

If they prepare fried chicken for 100 people a day, after 15 days, they will give the program team 35,000, and they will have a surplus of 28,000, plus double the additional donation from the program team, they can almost donate two love libraries to the children in poor mountainous areas.

"Although there is an element of gambling in this, I think we can do it!"

"Let's do it together!"

……

In a blink of an eye, April 2nd, it was the day before the official opening of Li Restaurant.

Thinking back to April 2nd last year, it was the first day Li Yichen walked into the love house, and at that time he thought it was just an ordinary chores.

Who would have thought that a year later, he would be preparing for the opening of the restaurant tomorrow, upgrading from a miscellaneous worker to a chef and store manager.

So much has happened in one year.

Two hundred and forty chapters.

"Can we do it?"

Li Yichen was a little worried.

Although he and Chen Bihua have made a lot of preparations together, when the day of opening the restaurant is approaching, it always feels as if they are not ready for anything.

The last time Li Yichen felt this way was the night before the college entrance examination.

Because it's taken too seriously.

"Can we do it?"

"I always feel like I don't know the bottom of my heart."

"Me too, my heart pounding."

Ye Linsen and Wu Xiayong also showed the same worries as Li Yichen.

"If your heart doesn't beat, you're in trouble."

Li Yichen joked that he is the store manager, and at this time, it should play a role in boosting morale.

"Don't worry, we have prepared so much, we will definitely be able to do it!"

In order to alleviate the worries in their hearts, Li Yichen and the others discussed it and prepared to go to the restaurant for a trial opening and solve dinner by the way.

As soon as they said they were leaving, each of the five of them held a box of ingredients and walked along the coastline to the restaurant.

The sea that has not completely faded is reflected in a red patch.

Not far away, at the pier, the last steamer bound for Howard Island is slowly leaving.

Li Yichen suddenly remembered that when he first landed on Fuhua Island, the old village chief of Fuhua Village also hoped that after the broadcast of "Island Cabin", he could bring tourists to Fuhua Island, so that their children who had left their hometown could return to the island to work and live.

Now that "Island Cabin" is so popular, there should be more tourists, but their children, accustomed to the prosperity of the metropolis, may not go back.

Only Wang Gaoming's program team will always look for a secluded village as a recording location for variety shows.

This is the first time Li Yichen and they have come to the renovated restaurant, and the overall decoration set is very atmospheric and transparent, very distinctive, and full of details.

But it may be for the best shooting effect, the kitchen of the restaurant is extraordinarily large, all kinds of tableware and kitchenware are readily available, but the tables and chairs in the dining area are very few, there are only six tables indoors, only two tables outdoors, and the per capita guest area is more than one meter.

However, if the table is full of eight tables and the table is turned over four times, it can still receive about 100 customers a day.

"Bang Bang Bang"

"Boss, order!"

Wang Gaoming in the lobby found a table closest to the kitchen and sat down, patting the table, eager to experience the taste of being a god.

"Hello, this is the menu of our restaurant."

Chen Yihua, who was in charge of the reception in the lobby, slowly adapted to the sitcoms that Wang Gaoming and Li Yichen made from time to time, hurriedly found the menu on the bar, took a copy and handed it to Wang Gaoming.

Wang Gaoming didn't look at it, threw the menu on the table, and shouted: "Let's have a copy!" ”

"Hahaha......"

The crowd burst into laughter.

The menu of Li Restaurant is a whole book, but in fact, it is only for four people.

One fried chicken, three fried chicken set.

"No, come to three!"

There are so many staff members in the program team, Wang Gaoming felt that one book was definitely not enough to eat, so he simply ordered two more copies to make up enough for twelve people.

"Okay, Sanben, Peng Cheng, you keep an eye on it, don't let him escape the order, the three books are a total of 900."

Although it is a trial operation, the money that should be collected should not be less.

Li Yichen turned around and walked into the kitchen.

"Xia Yong, let's go to the kitchen to prepare."

"Oh, okay."

Wu Xiayong answered and followed Li Yichen into the kitchen.

And Chen Yihua and Ye Linsen also consciously prepared to familiarize themselves with the coffee machine and beverage machine.

Li Yichen walked into the kitchen, first rummaged through the cabinets to check the location of the pots and pans, and then carefully picked up each spice and checked it.

He remembered that Qian Haoyang said that a chef must be familiar with the placement of everything in the kitchen.

After getting familiar with the kitchen, Li Yichen meticulously finished the chef's dress, then washed his hands twice, dried them and put on gloves.

"Xia Yong, you go and steam rice, and then make salad and mashed potatoes."

"Okay, no problem."

Wu Xiayong's memory is not as good as Li Yichen's, and he is looking through the recipes, planning to do it against the recipes.

After quickly assigning the work, Li Yichen took out the bell pepper and prepared to make bell pepper soup.

After you are familiar with the recipe, it is not difficult, the key is the tool, you have to puree the boiled bell pepper cream, then add salt and lemon juice, and press the soup into a fine strainer filter saucer.

The whole dish, with plating, takes about ten minutes, which is faster than fried chicken.

After making the bell pepper soup, when Li Yichen started to fry the chicken, he suddenly discovered a fatal problem.

The program team prepared a constant temperature double-cylinder four-sieve fryer, not counting the time for flouring, if Li Yichen fried four fried chickens at the same time, and fried chicken for 100 people, he would have to fry it for five hours!

The restaurant is only open for five hours!

This king is wise......

Yes!
