116 Wedding Eve
As the first restaurant in the East China Sea to attract customers in the form of a full live broadcast, "Mom I'm Hungry" quickly became popular all over the city, and this quirky name and bizarre marketing model attracted a large number of diners to come to try the novelty.
The fully transparent operation process also completely eliminates the concerns of parents, and the combination of nutritious meals is indeed scientific and reasonable, Meng Lan and Chu Jun's cooking skills are indeed excellent, and there is an endless stream of parents who come to order meals for their children.
There are also some parents who stay in front of the video every day to learn to cook with them, try to cook for their children at home, and ask questions on the video if they don't understand, Meng Lan and Chu Jun never hide it, no matter how many times they ask, they will guide very patiently.
At first, Meng Lan and the three were worried that their peers would learn to steal business, and they were worried that after everyone learned to do it at home, no one would come to the restaurant to eat.
In the end, it was Shen Yu who dispelled their concerns.
Shen Yu said, "People who have time to cook at home, even if you don't teach her, she still cooks by herself, and people who don't have time to cook, even if she watches it a hundred times, she still doesn't have time."
As for peers, the same ingredients are made by different people The taste is not the same, at this time, it is preconceived, as long as it is a repeat customer of our family, it means that the taste of our family will not run away to his appetite, it will run away, it means that the appetite is not right, no matter how hard you try, it is useless.
The most important point is the fan effect, the more fans you attract, the higher your popularity, the greater your influence, and the money you make through live broadcast will far exceed the income from selling food, and there will even be advertising endorsements to find you, will you still care about how many more diners and fewer diners will be there? ”
The three of them suddenly realized, put aside all their concerns, and concentrated more on cooking, doing live broadcasts seriously, and putting their infinite enthusiasm into it.
Gradually, more and more people are accustomed to following their footsteps every morning to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the sunrise, watching the city slowly wake up, and witnessing how those ordinary ingredients go through one process after another, through their skillful hands into mouth-watering soulful deliciousness.
Gradually, they are also accustomed to listening to the eldest sister, the second sister and the third sister use their different styles and life experiences to tell their understanding of life, happy, sad, delicate, trivial, which can always resonate with some people.
Gradually, the restaurant is no longer a restaurant in the simple sense, it not only satisfies everyone's taste buds, but also provides a habitat for many people's hearts. Some people will tell them about their troubles, and some people will ask them for advice when they encounter problems or knots, and they will use their rich life experience and experience to solve their doubts, soothe and inspire people who are in the city but have lonely souls.
Gradually, more and more orders overwhelmed them, and they had to consider recruiting more people.
After closing in the evening, the three of them sat together, discussing the recruitment while settling accounts, Ji Hong ambitiously proposed that with the current ability of the restaurant, it is completely possible to take down the left and right stores, expand the scale of operation, and recruit more people to train them, so as to reserve talents for the future opening of branches.
"Open a branch?" Chu Jun was impressed by her, "It's good to open a branch, we can open one near every school, and then the three of us will be big bosses, we don't have to do any work, we will command and command people every day, and there will be countless amounts of money, Meng Lan, what do you think?" ”
Meng Lan raised his head from the bill, looked at her, and then at Ji Hong, knocked on the table with a pen, and said four words, "Don't forget your original intention!" ”
"......" Chu Jun suddenly remembered their previous conversation, patted his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, yes, don't forget your original intention, don't forget your original intention, it's me who swelled again!" ”
"Then according to your wishes, we will always guard this little shop and stop moving?" Ji Hong said, "Although we have reversed the situation by live broadcast now, there will always be a day when the live broadcast will be weak and decaying, we can't be satisfied with the status quo, we must be prepared for danger in times of peace, and pave the way for ourselves in advance." ”
"I'm not resting on my laurels, and I'm not against opening a branch, but now is never the right time to expand." Meng Lan said.
"Why?" Ji Hong asked.
Meng Lan said, "Opening a branch requires henchmen, cultivating henchmen is not a matter of one or two days, without henchmen, the three of us must be managed separately, except for you, Chu Jun and I currently do not have the ability to take charge alone, if you lose your reputation because of poor management, it will be more than worth the loss."
More importantly, the three of us are an inseparable whole, learn from each other's strengths, work together, whether it is daily operation or live broadcasting, no one can do without it.
In addition, the most important point is that the children's exam date is just around the corner, and we should spare more energy to accompany them to do the final sprint, and no matter how important it is, we have to wait until the exam is over. ”
Chu Jun didn't care about anything else, as soon as he mentioned the college entrance examination, he immediately nodded busily, "Yes, yes, nothing is as important as the college entrance examination." ”
"Okay!" Ji Hong said, "Then it's okay to expand the scale, right?" ”
"I don't think it's necessary." Meng Lan said, "Our current scale is enough to meet the dining needs of students, and our main service object is students, as for individual customers, there are too many people to take care of, and sometimes the food waiting in line is more delicious." ”
"......" Ji Hong was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile, "Okay, it's really yours, you have a brain, you may be a catering boss a few years earlier." ”
"What do you mean?" Chu Jun said stupidly, "I haven't understood yet." ”
"Stupid!" Ji Hong knocked on her head, "What Meng Lan means is that food must be owed to eat, so that people will be worried, and if it is too easy to eat, it will not be remembered, just like men, women who are too easy to get their hands on often do not cherish, understand?" ”
"you, this can also be pulled on men." Meng Lan smiled and gave her a blank look.
"It's not, it's a nature." Ji Hong Zhenzhen said, "Let's take Wei Cheng as an example, he has been obsessed with you for so many years, hasn't he just not eaten it in his mouth?" ”
"Fuck off!" Meng Lan grabbed the calculator, "Talking nonsense again, believe it or not, I'll stone you to death!" ”
At this time, Chu Jun came quietly, "That Ji Hong, you fed Li Chen so early, didn't he lose his appetite soon?" ”
"Of course not." Ji Hong blinked, "I fed it in a different way." ”
"Shameless!" Meng Lan and Chu Jun despised her in unison.
……
The days passed heavily, and after living it, it was May Day, and Ji Hong's wedding finally came.
The banquet was booked in her previous hotel, and Wang Dongping not only promised to charge at cost price, but also gave her a big red envelope.
Meng Lan asked Ji Hong why she wanted to hold a banquet there, Ji Hong said, there was no other meaning, she just wanted to say goodbye to the past completely, as soon as the wedding was over, her life would turn a new page!
Meng Lan and Chu Jun, as bridesmaids, decided to close down for a day in order to accompany her to witness this happy moment, and it happened that the school was also closed on this day, so there was no need to worry about not being able to cook for the children.
The three children have tasks on this day, Chang Xiao and Li Minghao are flower girls, and Shen Yu volunteered to act as the master of ceremonies.
Wei Cheng is Li Chen's hair, and the role of best man is none other than him, and the other best man is a colleague with whom Li Chen has a very good relationship with the police station.
The day before the wedding, everything was ready, and that night, Ji Hong invited everyone to have a farewell bachelor dinner at the hotel.
Because there was business the next day, the dinner ended early, and everyone didn't drink much.
That night, Li Chen and Ji Hong needed to live separately, so Li Chen sent Ji Hong's mother and daughter downstairs and left.
Ji Hong was in a good mood, humming a song with Chang Xiao upstairs, getting out of the elevator, and unexpectedly finding Chang Jiang standing at the door of her house.
I haven't seen him for a long time, Chang Jiang is a lot fatter than before, his hair is oily, the flesh on his face is a little loose, he is wearing a loose polo shirt, and his beer belly is looming, as if he has aged more than ten years all of a sudden.
Chang Xiao was a little afraid to recognize him, and hesitated to call him, "Dad, is it you?" ”
"It's me, it's me." Chang Jiang responded, took a few steps forward and hugged Chang Xiao in his arms, "Baby, I miss my father!" ”
Chang Xiao rarely thinks of his father, but now that he has met, he was hugged by his father like this, his nose was sore, and tears almost fell.
"As soon as we meet, we will die and live, can you say something auspicious." Ji Hong glared and said, "Why are you here if you have nothing to do?" ”
After being separated for so long, Chang Jiang was still afraid of her from the bottom of his heart, and when he was glared at by her, he couldn't help but tremble, and sneered, "What are you doing, I just haven't seen you for a long time, come and see if you are okay." ”
"Very good!" Ji Hong said, "If there is nothing else to do, let's leave quickly, don't delay our rest." ”
After speaking, he forcibly pulled Chang Xiao out of Chang Jiang's arms.
"Dad!" Chang Xiao subconsciously shouted.
Chang Jiang's heart was sour, and he hurriedly reached out to grab her, "Smile!" ”
"What are you laughing at, let go!" Ji Hong said unhappily, "Now that I think you have a daughter, why did you go earlier, Xiaoxiao will have a new father soon, and you don't need your old father to behave!" ”
"I know, I know." Chang Jiang said, "I just heard that you are going to get married tomorrow, so I want to come over and say hello to you, in addition, another ......."
"What else?" Ji Hong asked impatiently.
"In addition, I, I'm afraid that Xiaoxiao will have emotions, and I want to come over and ask her, if she is not happy, I will let her go and live with me for a while......" Chang Jiang said in a whisper.
"I don't need you to worry about it, I'm happy to laugh." Ji Hong said.
"Really?" Chang Jiang didn't believe it, and asked Chang Xiao, "Are you really happy to smile, do you want to go to live with your father?" ”
"If I don't go, I'm going to be a flower girl for my mother!" Chang smiled and said, "Dad, you don't have to worry about me, I'm not unhappy, this new dad was chosen by myself, and I like him very much." ”
"What?" Chang Jiang was very hurt, "Xiaoxiao, you, don't you want your father?" ”
"You don't want her first!" Ji Hong said coldly.
"Mom!" Chang Xiao stopped her, "Mom, don't say it, you go in first, I'll send Dad downstairs!" ”
"No way!" Ji Hong shouted.
Chang Xiao ignored her, and took Chang Jiang away.
Ji Hong huffed and watched as their father and daughter entered the elevator, stood at the door for a while, and went into the house by themselves.
Chang Jiang grabbed Chang Xiao's hand in the elevator and cried "wow", "Xiaoxiao, Dad regrets it, Dad wants to come back, can you not let your mother get married?" ”
