Chapter 221: Hard Power
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
The changes in the second phase of the training camp are too big, and it can even be said that it is completely different from the first stage of the training camp.
Whether it is a lot of plastic coins or a few plastic coins, they are a little worried.
The next day.
Today's ingredients are no longer free, and they need to be purchased with plastic coins.
Gao Dian came to the warehouse, there have been some changes here, in front of the food area, there are staff collecting money.
It's like a vegetable market outside.
The difference, of course, is that the currency here is plastic coins, and the purchasing power of green plastic coins is surprisingly good.
Gao Dian discovered that a green plastic coin could buy three portions of lily crisp.
Walking around, Gao Dian pondered.
He knows several kinds of noodles, and if it comes to cheap cost, it is a white-flour steamed bun. One green plastic coin can make more than a dozen steamed buns.
But steamed bread is cheap, but it can't sell too much, if he uses all the plastic coins in his hand to buy the ingredients for making steamed bread.
Well, he simply won't run out of it in a day.
It is estimated that the steamed buns made will not be sold out.
In the end, even if you can make money, it is not cost-effective.
This is not to make money outside, this is a training camp, and plastic coins are not money, but the key to whether they can not be eliminated.
If you earn less, others earn more, and you will be eliminated in the end.
So, it's not good to make steamed buns all.
Gao Dian touched his chin and thought.
Why don't you do it in a mixed way?
Make some steamed buns, make some lily crisps, and make some steamed buns.
The advantage of making more than one type of pastry is that it has a wider audience!
If you make a single type of pastry, who knows how many people will be willing to buy it?
You know, these noodles are sold by the staff, and they don't see customers, and they don't have any reputation at all.
If no one wants to eat a certain pastry, isn't it just the end of it?
Therefore, there are still benefits to making a few more kinds of pastries.
After thinking about this, Gao Dian began to buy ingredients.
I have to say that the purchasing power of plastic coins is okay, so that even if there are not many plastic coins, there are actually opportunities.
If the purchasing power of plastic coins is not good, for example, you can only buy a few materials, then how can you turn over?
Increasing the purchasing power of plastic coins has maintained a relative balance.
There is a limit to the amount of pastry a pastry chef can make every day, even if there are more plastic coins, you can only make so many, and there is a limit to the plastic coins you can earn.
And if the purchasing power of plastic coins is very low, there will be more and more of them, and fewer and fewer of them, until they reach the limit of what a pastry chef can make every day.
This is also a kind of preferential treatment for those who do not have a lot of plastic money.
Of course, the plastic coins in Gao Dian's hand at this time are not enough to buy ingredients to reach his limit, unless they are all made into steamed buns.
The cost of ingredients is different depending on the pastry.
He sold and sold, and there were fewer and fewer plastic coins in his hand, Gao Dian gritted his teeth, and simply bought them all.
Some people leave some plastic coins in their hands to avoid the elimination of plastic coins, or the least obsolescence. Holding some in your hand, even if the income is not high, you will not be eliminated the first time.
Gao Dian doesn't care about these, he can earn more if he does more, if he is eliminated, it can only mean that he is not capable.
There are many people who have the same choice as Gao Dian, and they are all very confident in themselves. Spend all the plastic coins before you can earn back more plastic coins.
He put the ingredients away and began to make them.
The three kinds of pastries, steamed buns, and lily cakes, Gao Dian made them one by one.
The noodles were not made because the noodles were made and were not suitable for transportation.
And these three kinds of noodles are fine, even if they are cold, they can be reheated and eaten, but the noodles are not.
Gao Dian made a batch and handed it over to the staff, and he also studied the pricing for a long time.
Time passes slowly, and the day flies by.
The next day, when Gao Dian settled, he found that he had earned twenty red coins, plus eight green coins.
It's not bad, and it makes a lot of money.
Today, the first person to be eliminated appeared, a second-level pastry chef, who not only did not make money, but also lost some.
After being eliminated, he could only pack up his things and leave, looking at his depressed appearance, Gao Dian also sighed silently in his heart.
No way, the rules are like that, there are always people who will be eliminated.
When Gao Dian walked into the warehouse to buy ingredients, he was surprised to find that the purchasing power of plastic coins had become lower!
Although it has not become very large, it means that the protection of the weak is disappearing.
Gao Dian was even wondering, will it keep getting lower?
He sighed in his heart, expelled distracting thoughts from his mind, stopped thinking about those things, and did his best!
Today, Gao Dian plans to make more lily cakes, and his main goal of practice is still on lily cakes.
The white-flour steamed buns and pork buns he knows are always a little bit different. Of course, these two types of pastry are also advanced, but they don't.
In the afternoon, there is a lot of free.
Everyone makes as much pastry as possible in the morning, because it is better to make pastry in the morning and sell it longer, and in the afternoon it is much more free.
Lou Xiangpeng walked over and said, "Brother Dian, I feel like I'm going to be eliminated." ”
Gao Dian was puzzled: "Why? ”
"I didn't make much money yesterday, I inquired, and a lot of people earn more than me." Lou Xiangpeng said.
"It's okay, take your time." Gao Dian comforted.
"Alas~ I would have set the price a little higher if I had known, and it would be better to sell it a little bit." Lou Xiangpeng sighed.
Gao Dian pondered for a while and said, "You can go and inquire about how the noodles you make are selling." If the situation is good, the price can be increased appropriately. ”
Lou Xiangpeng nodded when he heard this, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said: "Brother Dian, you said that if I set the price very high, I will make that kind of money if I sell one, can you?" ”
Gao Dian shook his head and said, "No! I suspect that the price we set has something to do with the price they go out to sell, and the higher we set, the more expensive they must be. Otherwise, there is no point in setting our own prices.
If you set the price too high all of a sudden, it is likely that no one will buy it, and you will probably be doomed. ”
"What if anyone is curious? If you buy my pastry, as long as there is one person, I will make money. Lou Xiangpeng said.
"It's possible, but do you think it's likely? For example, if you buy a steamed bun for 100 yuan, how many people do you think will be curious to buy it? Gao Dian asked.
"This" Lou Xiangpeng hesitated.
"Don't think about it, it's better to take this kind of crooked and evil way. Your pastry is popular, and it is reasonable to raise the price appropriately, but if the price is raised too high, it will be dead. Gao Dian admonished.
"I understand, Brother Dian, I listen to you." Lou Xiangpeng said.
Soon, Lou Xiangpeng left, probably to inquire about the situation.
At night.
Gao Dian and Wei Qiaoyi sat together, chatting about some cooking skills.
After discussing for a while, Gao Dian suddenly said: "Why has the purchasing power of this plastic coin become low?" ”
Wei Qiaoyi said: "Did you find out? ”
Gao Dian nodded, "It's not hard to spot. ”
"It's about opening the gap, and you should be able to figure out that the less purchasing power, the easier it is to open the gap." Wei Qiaoyi said.
Gao Dian nodded, of course he could think of it. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is related to the limit of each person's pastry making.
"Why widen the gap? It stands to reason that there will be people eliminated every day, the rules are there, and there is no point in opening up the gap, right? Gao Dian asked puzzled.
"I don't know much about this, anyway, the more plastic coins in my hand, the better." Wei Qiaoyi said.
Gao Dian pondered, "Is it related to the next stage?" ”
Wei Qiaoyi shook his head and said, "I don't know, this is not set by me, it is estimated that only Hu Lao knows." Anyway, go for it and try to earn more plastic coins. ”
Gao Dian answered, and didn't think about this.
Soon, Gao Dian and Wei Qiaoyi went back to rest.
On the third day, the purchasing power of plastic coins dropped again, which was also different.
If it weren't for Gao Dian's relatively large number of purchases, he wouldn't have found out.
In the afternoon, Lou Xiangpeng ran over again, with an excited smile on his face.
"Brother Dian, I listened to you and was right, I earned more plastic coins today and yesterday than the day before yesterday." Lou Xiangpeng said.
Gao Dian smiled and said, "That's fine." ”
"Brother Dian, do you know the person who was eliminated today?" Lou Xiangpeng asked in a low voice.
"What's wrong?" Gao Dian Road.
"He just used the ridiculously high price yesterday, and as I thought, selling a copy is a profit. As a result, he didn't sell a single one, he lost a lot yesterday, and he was eliminated today. Lou Xiangpeng said in a low voice.
"Huh?"
Gao Dian didn't know this, he wasn't like Lou Xiangpeng to ask around for news, he was very short on time.
Lou Xiangpeng said fearfully: "Brother Dian, fortunately, I listened to your words and didn't use that method, otherwise I guess I would have to be eliminated." ”
Gao Dian shook his head and said: "That method is not advisable in the first place, and improving yourself is the right way." ”
However, the ones eliminated today and yesterday are all second-level pastry chefs.
At this time, the gap between the second-level pastry chef and the first-level pastry chef is reflected.
Of course, there is no way to do this, in exchange for Gao Dian, I would prefer to sell something delicious.
Lou Xiangpeng said in a low voice: "Brother Dian, I heard a method just now, small profits but quick turnover, what do you think?" ”
"How thin?" Gao Dian asked.
"It's almost as thin as the cost price." Lou Xiangpeng said.
"It's a good idea to make small profits but get quick turnover." Gao Dian said.
Lou Xiangpeng's eyes lit up and said, "Brother Dian, then I'll try it?" ”
Gao Dian glanced at him and said, "Don't worry, what are you panicking about, I haven't finished my words yet." Small profits are a good solution, but the question is how much capacity do you have? If the production capacity is too small, it is meaningless to make small profits and quick turnover, because if you make money, you will still be eliminated. ”
Lou Xiangpeng was stunned, he was not stupid, and quickly figured out the joints.
"I see, it seems that small profits and quick sales are still not good." Lou Xiangpeng said.
Gao Dian asked, "Why are you so obsessed with studying these?" ”
Lou Xiangpeng smiled bitterly: "I'm not like you, Brother Dian, I have the level of a first-level pastry chef, I am just an ordinary second-level pastry chef." I don't want to do anything else, it's not like I'm going to be eliminated soon. ”
Gao Dian wanted to speak and stopped, but what they said before was not like this.
Lou Xiangpeng continued: "Although we all said before that we would definitely be eliminated, who is willing to be eliminated? Even if you know that you will be eliminated, you hope that it will be later, and it will be later. ”
Gao Dian heard the words and did not speak.
Probably other people think the same way, knowing that they will be eliminated, but they are unwilling to be eliminated. That's why I think of these ways.
"Do you have a lot of pastry?" Gao Dian asked.
Lou Xiangpeng said: "It's okay, it's not much, but there are still more than a dozen." ”
Gao Dian said: "Then you make a few more pastries, you go and inquire, which pastries sell well, you make those, and the price is consistent with the price of the same type." ”
Lou Xiangpeng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Brother Dian, is this reliable?" I'm not as good as others, and the pastries I make are not as good as others. ”
Gao Dian smiled and said, "How do you know if it's delicious if you haven't tasted it?" The price is the same, the pastry is the same, and it is difficult for ordinary customers to distinguish until they have tasted it. When they buy, there's a good chance they'll buy yours. ”
Lou Xiangpeng somewhat understood, "Brother Dian, what do you mean, fishing in troubled waters?" ”
Gao Dian nodded: "Not bad." But this is not a long-term solution after all, you still have to improve yourself more. ”
Lou Xiangpeng smiled: "I understand, Brother Dian, thank you, I'll try it tomorrow." ”
After speaking, Lou Xiangpeng left.
Two more days passed.
The method that Gao Dian taught Lou Xiangpeng worked well, and the plastic coins he earned were okay.
Lou Xiangpeng excitedly told Gao Dian about the situation, Gao Dian didn't comment too much, this method will not last.
Delicious is the last word, and this method of fishing in troubled waters is only useful for a while.
In two days, two second-level pastry chefs were eliminated again.
None of the Gao Dian small group has been eliminated, but there are no other second-level pastry chefs left, and their small group will be eliminated after all.
Gao Dian is not sure if he can stay until the end, but during this time, he has also improved.
After all, he has a plug-in to help, and he discusses cooking skills with Wei Qiaoyi every day.
He thought about it, and threw these thoughts out, let's take one step at a time, it's useless to think too much now.
In the evening, Hu Dekun, who had not appeared for several days, reappeared.
He gathered everyone together and announced one thing.
"Tomorrow, a group of people will come, you can prepare in advance, this is a good opportunity to earn plastic coins." Hu Dekun said with a smile.
"Old Hu, how many people will there be tomorrow?" Someone asked.
Hu Dekun said: "There are a lot of people, anyway, it is enough for you to earn." ”
Many people are bright, there are a lot of people, and the plastic coins they earn will definitely not be less.
Hu Dekun clapped his hands and motioned for everyone to be quiet.
"I won't say more, tomorrow you can prepare well, just arrange according to the roadside stalls on the snack street, if necessary, you can call the staff to help you." Hu Dekun said with a smile.
The crowd nodded.
Soon, Hu Dekun left here again.
He just came to inform him, and after the notice, he naturally left.
