Chapter 43: Crayfish Festival

After arranging for the driver's license test, Lao Tang once again showed his deep skills in the old rivers and lakes, and the house also helped Lin Feng find a good house.

It's close, right in the neighborhood behind the snack street.

The neighborhood is quiet, the greenery is wide and there is a huge swimming pool.

The house is three bedrooms and two living rooms, a standard large suite, and the decoration style is simple and bright.

What Lin Feng is most satisfied with is that there is a large open-air balcony, as wide as a bedroom, and a glass ceiling, whether it is a shade or a barbecue, it is very ideal.

The furniture and appliances in the house are all brand new, and they still smell of paint.

"Brother Lin, what do you think?" Boss Tang asked, "More than 40,000 a year, and there is still a parking space in the garage." ”

Lin Feng is very satisfied with this house, it has just been renovated, no one has lived in it now, and the rent is not expensive, although it is a little older to live alone, but it is fully functional, the environment is good, and everything is brand new, a house like this is not rented at any time.

In fact, he originally thought that it would be good to find a hotel-style apartment near the university to save money and trouble, but now that Lao Tang has arranged it, it is even more ideal than at the beginning, and the focus is on being close to the snack street and convenient for business.

After all, in addition to crayfish, he also plans to develop other categories, Huaxia is a big foodie, Rongcheng is a big foodie, and the catering industry is promising.

So I paid the rent on the spot, signed the contract, and packed my luggage.

Lao Tang is getting more and more thoughtful and neat, he doesn't need to mention it, and the cleaning company has already arranged it for him, so he doesn't have to worry about everything.

He didn't have many things, so he cleaned up very simply, laid out the quilt he had just bought, and Lao Tang called a few waiters to clean it thoroughly, even if it was done.

Looking at the empty balcony, I decided to buy a few pots of flowers, and a set of small tables and chairs, or it didn't look hollow.

Old Tang didn't accompany him, saying that it was a trivial matter.

When passing by the lobster restaurant, Lin Feng saw several well-dressed people walking into the store, and Lao Tang greeted him courteously to the second floor.

I heard him say two days ago that the snack street has been stabilized, and he wants to start expanding his business, and Lin Feng is probably here to talk about it.

went to the mall for a few casual walks, and when he came out, Lin Feng saw someone handing out flyers at the door.

"In the middle of summer, the Lobster Festival in July will be grandly opened at the Tianfu Food Court this weekend!

"From July 15th to 16th, more than 100 crayfish brands across the country were stationed, and 1,000 chefs made them on site, presenting you with an unprecedented crayfish feast!

"In the scorching summer, only love and crayfish can't live up to it! Rongcheng foodies, empty your stomach, come and enjoy!"

Lin Feng has been to this place, which is a large food court newly built in the past two years.

Here, you can not only eat hundreds of Rongcheng's unique flavors, but also taste classic foods from all over the country.

This is a paradise for foodies in Rongcheng, and it is a must-pass place for foreign foodie tourists.

Although it is outside the Fifth Ring Road in Beicheng District, it has been connected to the subway, so the transportation is also very convenient.

It is also far away from the city center, so it occupies a large area. In addition to three five-storey buildings, there is also an open-air plaza of more than 60,000 square meters.

Therefore, throughout the year, food festivals, trade fairs, and large circus performances are held here.

Judging from the photos on the flyer, although it is only the 8th today, rows of temporary stalls have been erected in the open square, full of tables, chairs and benches.

There are also many businesses that have lit up their signboards, and all kinds of huge crayfish models and balloons are everywhere, which are very eye-catching.

This is the first crayfish food festival in Rongcheng, the organizers and functional departments, spare no effort to publicize, build momentum, major portals, food websites, are used on the home page to play a striking title.

In this hot July, the wind of crayfish has not yet arrived, and it has already detonated the enthusiasm of countless enthusiasts.

How could such an unprecedented event be missed?

Although the name of Lin Feng crayfish has been hit, because there is only one store in the snack street, the delivery is only a few kilometers. Compared with the Rongcheng City area, which has a diameter of nearly 600 square kilometers, the coverage area is pitifully small.

Therefore, this is a great opportunity for Lin Feng crayfish to walk out of the snack street and march to the entire Rongcheng and even the whole country!

It's just such an important matter, it stands to reason that Old Tang should have heard the rumors, and with his shrewdness, he would not let go of such a good opportunity in vain.

Why haven't you heard him mention it?

Back in the store, Lin Feng was about to talk about it, but Old Tang called him up to the second floor first.

He took out a few pieces of paper, which turned out to be a blank contract for the entry of this crayfish food festival.

Lin Feng thought that he didn't know about it, but the old man kept quiet and got the contract in hand. It seems that the people I saw when I went out just now came for this matter.

But with Lin Feng's understanding of him, Old Tang doesn't hide things very much, especially when he encounters good things and happy events, he always smiles and groans, and he knows it at a glance.

But at this moment, not only did he not smile, but he also had a sad face.

Lin Feng knew that this contract might not be as simple as it seemed, so he asked, "I got the contract, why am I still unhappy?"

"Hmph," Speaking of the contract, Old Tang was obviously a little angry, "Don't mention it, the organizer came just now, saying that if we want to enter the station, we have to pay the booth fee." ”

Lin Feng said in his heart, isn't this normal?

The organizers rent venues, set up booths, tables and chairs, and manage them, which costs money. Of course, the money is paid by the merchants, which is the so-called booth fee, and it is impossible for Old Tang not to understand this truth.

But looking at his unhappy face, it is estimated that the booth fee is a bit much.

"1 million!" Old Tang gestured to a finger, very angry, "A stall less than 10 meters wide, 10 tables, actually charge 1 million booth fees! Why don't they grab it?"

Lin Feng also took a breath of cool air when he heard this.

To be honest, 1 million is already greater than the turnover of the entire peak season for an ordinary crayfish restaurant.

Paying so many booth fees and participating in a crayfish festival will only be done by the brain-dead, and this kind of condition will only be opened by the brain-dead.

"And look at it," Old Tang took out the layout of the square stall again, "and let us put it in the corner position, leaning on the garbage can! This kind of place, let alone give him 1 million, I won't go to give me 1 million!" I also asked why this is arranged, what do you guess they say?" Old Tang sneered and learned, "You Lin Feng crayfish fragrance drifts far away, and the wine is not afraid of deep alleys! Isn't this obviously bullying us?"

Lin Feng picked up the drawings and looked at them, the stalls assigned to them were not only leaning on the garbage bins, but also far away from several entrances, which belonged to a position that ordinary people would not go to visit at all.

And the surroundings are very narrow, even if someone knows the fragrance, there are not many people.

"Have you ever asked how much other people's booths are?"

"Don't say it, I'm even more angry if I say it!" Old Tang waved his hand directly, "I just asked for one, the twenty-meter-long booth fee for an ordinary position, 50,000!"

This is obvious.

It stands to reason that the fame of Lin Feng crayfish is not small in Rongcheng, and the organizer is also Rongcheng, not to mention taking more care of local brands, at least it should not be suppressed like this.

This was clearly deliberate, and someone didn't want them to participate in this crayfish festival.

Who is it? Wang Meng?

There is a possibility, but it cannot be confirmed, and it will not help if it is confirmed.

There are no standards and regulations on how to collect booth fees and how to arrange locations, and the organizers have the final say.

If Lin Feng crayfish don't go, they won't earn a single point. If they are willing to give 1 million, they will be even more happy.

Obviously, the person who came up with this method this time is obviously a step above Wang Meng and is more spicy.

"Brother Lin, I think it's better to forget it. ”

Old Tang felt that this time, even Lin Feng would have nothing to do. It's useless for him to know a lot of people, the organizer is just a mobile small private unit, and if you take a shot to change places, the words of your parents and officials may not be good!

"Don't worry, let me think about it. ”

It's not that there is no way, such as using the Qingfeng group or the relationship of the brotherhood, but he doesn't want to do it, and now he is not even sure who is doing the trouble, so he rashly looks for someone to help, and the amount of favor owed is great, and there will naturally be more.

Is there any other way?

Eventually, he pulled up a map around the food court, and after looking at it closely, he gradually got an idea!
