"I pay for the rent of the store, plus the decoration, and the money for the raw materials is all paid by me, and the operation will be handed over to you and Sister Su Qin. If you make a profit, you'll make six, and if you lose, it's mine, how about it? ”

This proposal was so sudden and bold that everyone didn't react for a while.

"It's not a trivial matter, have you figured it out?"

Ma Suqin said.

Zeng Xian could see that Ma Suqin was still very interested in this matter.

Qiao Erqiang doesn't have much social experience, and he cringes when he does things. But Ma Suqin is different, she has experienced too much, has done many kinds of work, and has very rich social experience.

In the past, she was able to work in a mechanical factory to the extent of taking apprentices, which shows that she has enough ability.

With her joining, Zeng Xian is more assured.

"It's not something I want to do on the spur of the moment. I mentioned to my eldest brother the idea of letting my second brother open his own store before, maybe for some other reason, my eldest brother didn't tell you! Anyway, as long as you two are willing to do it, I'll pay for it. ”

"Yiding, what if it fails? That's a lot of money. ”

Qiao Sanli said worriedly.

"It's okay, there's a risk in doing anything. Anyway, I'm still a student now, and I don't have to support my family. If you don't do something while you're young, when will you wait? Besides, the food made by the second brother is so delicious, this is the guarantee. ”

"I'm willing to give it a try!"

Ma Suqin said.

Now just wait for Qiao Erqiang to nod.

However, with Ma Suqin here, I don't worry that he won't agree.

"Erqiang, if you want to give me a stable home, just agree!"

Sure enough, Ma Suqin said a word, and Qiao Erqiang nodded.

Now that a consensus has been reached, all that remains is action.

The Spring Festival period is a busy time, and the store is definitely not easy to find, and this can only wait until the New Year. Some stores will close after this Spring Festival because of bad business.

Since Zeng Xian was going back to school soon after the Spring Festival, these things could only be handed over to Qiao Sanli and the three of them. When they find a suitable storefront, they can come and see it themselves, and then negotiate with the landlord about rent and other things.

After the Spring Festival, Zeng Xian's novel was also published, and it has been three months now. When he sent the manuscript of the second book to the publishing house, the person in charge told him that the first book had sold nearly 10,000 copies, and that several book clubs were still ordering, and they had started to pre-order the second book.

Zeng Xian calculated in his heart. Now the price of his book is 1 yuan, and the royalty income is only 1 cent, and 10,000 copies are 1,000 yuan.

"Is this good or bad?"

Zeng Xian really has no concept of this.

"Of course it's okay! If this continues, a single book can sell at least 40,000 or 50,000 copies a year. ”

Zeng Xian is also very happy that his book can have such results. Novels that travel through the theme are very novel themes for this era, and it is rare for them to be accepted and loved by the public.

When Qiao Simei got the first book from Zeng Xian, it only took a day to read the whole book, chasing Zeng Xian and asking about the plot behind.

Of course Zeng Xian wouldn't say it, Qiao Simei's big mouth pointed out that maybe the second book hadn't come out yet, and she couldn't help but reveal it to her classmates that this was a violation of the contract.

During this period, Qiao Sanli and the others found a storefront, and it was quite smooth to apply for business licenses and other documents because of Zhu Chen's help. The next thing was the decoration, the dining table and chairs, and so on, which took nearly three months. Finally, an excellent day was chosen, and the "Huimin Hotel" finally opened for business.

Zeng Xian's suggestion is that three days before the opening, except for drinks, will be discounted by 9%. After eating, customers can bring up what they feel bad, and the store will improve what can be improved. Customers can also deposit their purchases in advance if they wish. If you deposit more than 20 yuan, you can continue to enjoy a 10% discount in the future.

In 1986, the per capita wage was much higher than that of the previous year, and the average wage of workers reached three digits, while the price of goods did not rise much, so the level of consumption also increased considerably.

The hotel has just started to open and is focused on retaining customers. Qiao Erqiang doesn't know how to operate, he just needs to cook his own dishes. After Ma Suqin and Qiao Sanli heard his proposals, they felt that this method could be tried.

And the facts have also proved that Zeng Xian's method is feasible, and the net interest rate is more than 200 yuan in three months, which is a good start for a newly opened hotel.

And Qiao Erqiang's craftsmanship did not disappoint everyone, which is the magic weapon that can retain customers.

The business in the store is getting better and better, Qiao Erqiang and Ma Suqin are gradually becoming too busy, Zeng Xian proposed that they can recruit people, and they can also take orders by phone and deliver orders directly to the door.

This was another bold proposal, and everyone was shocked by Zeng Xian's brain circuit.

"Is it okay to deliver orders to your door?"

"No, just try!"

In the early stage, as long as the guests who have come to the store, they will bring a menu with a contact number when they leave.

Also helping to promote are Qiao Sanli and Qiao Simei, who also brought leaflets to the school to distribute to their classmates, as long as the distance is not very far, they can send the leaflets to the door.

Finally, on the first day of the order delivery business, at dinner time, the first order phone finally rang, followed by the second and third ······

Sure enough, you can eat the food in the restaurant without going out, and the price is the same, who wouldn't be happy?

In the days that followed, there were more and more telephone orders, and there were slightly fewer people coming to the restaurant to eat. Zeng Xian made some adjustments according to the situation, such as the appropriate delivery fee of 1 cent for food delivery.

Many people have become accustomed to this kind of home delivery service, and they don't care about this delivery fee.

After a month, in addition to the salaries of two delivery staff, the interest rate in the store is nearly two hundred.

Gradually, their door-to-door service form was imitated by other restaurants, which was expected by Zeng Xian.

Fortunately, their store has more regular customers, a friendly reputation, and it is the first of this kind of service, so their business here is getting better and better.

The hotel was open for a year and finally made a profit of more than 10,000 yuan, which simply exceeded everyone's expectations.

At the celebration banquet, Qiao Erqiang and Ma Suqin said a lot of words of thanks to Zeng Xian, but Zeng Xian accepted them one by one unceremoniously.

The two of them, if not themselves, would still see each other. If it weren't for themselves, they wouldn't have been able to have such a significant income.

"If you want to take over the hotel completely, I don't have a problem, just pay the transfer fee."

Zeng Xian was testing them.
