Chapter 136: Lao Du and the Fat Boss

Chapter 136

Lao Du and his wife have been opening a restaurant in this alley opposite 'Ganzhi' for more than ten years.

On this street, his skills are pretty good. The business is not the best, but it can also rank in the middle of the stream, and you can earn more than 100,000 yuan after a year of hard work.

Lao Du built a three- or four-story building in his hometown in the countryside two years earlier. Not counting the yard, the foundation of the main house is 180 square meters. The floor tiles were laid, the ceiling was hanged, and the decoration was properly done. He also bought air conditioners, washing machines, and solar water heaters, all of which were available to residents in the city.

When their daughter got married last year, the old couple posted tens of thousands of yuan in dowry alone, not to mention the money to sponsor their son-in-law to buy a house.

It stands to reason that both of them are in their fifties and sixties, they have houses and tickets, and their children don't have to worry, it's time to rest and enjoy the blessings. But in the past, I was used to being busy, and I always felt tired when I didn't do anything for a day. In his own words: When I was a child, a fortune teller told me that we just worked hard, and the more we lived, the longer we lived.

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

Because they are old and lack of energy, Lao Du and his wife didn't cook breakfast and supper, so they just made some lunch and lunch; anyway, they didn't want to make much money, as long as they lived a full life.

They came from a hard life, and they cherish the good life they have now. On weekdays, he is very responsible, and he is amiable to everyone. The food at home is also notoriously affordable, not only in large portions but also inexpensive, and has a large number of regular customers.

At eight o'clock.

Lao Du opened the door and planned to go to the nearby supermarket to make up some vegetables and come back. As soon as he leaned out, he saw the fat boss of the 'Good Taste Restaurant' next door standing on the street, with a gloomy face as if someone had offended him.

"What's the matter?" asked Lao Du casually.

To be honest, he doesn't have much regard for this fat boss. Not only does this man like to be greedy, but he is also not good at being a man.

Unlike Lao Du who went to the supermarket to buy the day's vegetables, this person specializes in buying some leftovers that are not fresh overnight to do business. On weekdays, it is also a dead pick, and customers don't agree to a dime less. As far as this street is concerned, he has a bad reputation and the worst business.

Seeing that the main meal could not compete, the fat boss started to make breakfast......... Selling steamed buns and fritters.

Originally, this was also quite good, it could not only earn some money but also make it convenient for the students who were rushing to class in the morning. But this person is not authentic: the pork filling in the bun is made of bits and pieces of leftovers, which cannot be seen after being crushed, but it is not good for the body to eat; although the oil used in fried fritters is not gutter oil, it is also the cheapest miscellaneous oil, and it is used repeatedly, and it is easy to cause cancer if you eat too much.

Others don't know, but Lao Du does. At first, he persuaded the fat boss to let him use some good materials, but he was scolded back, saying that Lao Du Dog was nosy with rats.

Because the raw materials are cheap and the price is lower than others, the fat boss's business is very hot. According to his own showmanship, he can earn more than 1,000 yuan just in the morning, plus lunch and dinner, and the daily turnover is a little higher than that of Lao Du.

It stands to reason that the morning is the best time for his business, and he should not be able to smile, why is his face full of dark clouds?

"If you don't do business in the store, what are you doing standing on the street?" Seeing that the fat boss didn't answer with a gloomy face, Lao Du asked again.

The fat boss squinted at him, and said angrily, "Hmph! Do business! Do a fart business! Everyone has been robbed of the newcomer!"

New to the new arrival?

Boss Du followed his eyes and looked at the other side of the road......... Are you talking about the newly opened 'stone restaurant'? How did he steal the business?

Although I haven't dealt with it before, I don't know it well. But out of sensitivity to his peers, Boss Du also inquired about Xu Lei curiously............ A young man in his 20s, who opened a shop alone, did not know the craftsmanship, but I heard that the price of the vegetables sold was quite high.

At that time, I felt that Xu Lei might be a novice, and he was bent on money. Originally, it was supposed to be discounted when it first opened, and there were some promotions or something to attract customers. Who knows that people who have eaten it say: Xu Lei's fish head soup actually sells for more than 100 yuan.

Don't you think this is nonsense? A silver carp head worth more than a dozen or 20 yuan is not bad if it is sold for thirty or forty, but who will eat it if it is sold for a hundred?

In the two days after opening, Boss Du observed the business of the stone restaurant...... Except for a few passers-by, I didn't see a few customers entering, and it was estimated that business should not be very good.

What's wrong now? Make breakfast too?

"It's a shame that this little rabbit cub said it, and fried eggs and fried rice with tribute rice!!" the fat boss scolded.

"Gong Mi Egg Fried Rice?" Boss Du felt that his ears had misheard: "Are you kidding? I'm so old that I haven't even seen what Gong Mi looks like, and there are still people who use it to do business?"

"Who's to say it's not!" the fat boss said indignantly: "It's just a gimmick, a deceit!"

Looking at the fat boss's angry appearance, Boss Du said with some amusement: "Don't be angry." If it's really a lie, who will go to eat it a second time, maybe there will be no one tomorrow. ”

"Look at my buns, how many big drawers they have! In the past, they were sold out a long time ago, but today they haven't sold half of them!" The fat boss said painfully: "Tell me, can I not be angry? So many buns, they will be spoiled tomorrow! He just cheated others, and now he has put Lao Tzu into it!"

The more the fat boss looked at the bun, the more angry he became, and said fiercely: "No, we can't forget it like this, I have to ask him for an explanation." If you pay me a little loss, it's fine, otherwise call 110 to report him and close his shop!"

"Hey... The young man is young and impulsive, so don't be like him. Boss Du grabbed him and persuaded: "I see that his business was not very good a few days ago, and he may have lied a little when he was in a hurry; ”

"Hmph! Of course you don't think it matters!" The fat boss sneered: "You don't make breakfast, it's not your business that is robbed! ”

"You..." This made Boss Du angry, and he persuaded people to persuade him, didn't he come out?

Anyway, it's none of his business, so I just don't care. Boss Du said with a stiff face: "The young man is angry, and he forces people to be anxious, I don't know who suffers!." Then he went grocery shopping on his own.

The fat boss had a gloomy face, hesitated for a long time, and muttered: "You are lucky today, we adults don't care about villains." If you still grab business with Lao Tzu in the future, don't blame me for being unkind. ”

He didn't believe that Xu Lei would use Gongmi to do business at all, thinking that it was just a small trick. This so-called 'Gong Rice Fried Rice' definitely doesn't taste good, and someone will be deceived once or twice, but after being fooled, they will definitely not go again next time.
