Chapter 52: Evenly matched
"Dad, why are you here?"
Zhang Cheng asked in surprise.
"Stinky boy, today is the big day for the opening of Chixi Restaurant, Xiaochi is the first promising offspring in our village, as a village, of course we have to come over to help!"
The village chief said seriously.
"The village chief praised it falsely, I have done too many things to be sorry for everyone before, and if you don't hold a grudge against me, it will already be a great favor to me."
"Come on, come on, everyone, please."
Zhang Xiaochi hurriedly invited everyone into the restaurant, and then asked Zhang Cheng to go to the steamed bun shop to buy some steamed buns and come over for breakfast for everyone.
"Xiaochi, if you have anything to help, just say, don't treat us as outsiders."
"Village chief, you are so polite, I am already very grateful that everyone can come to cheer, there is not much to do, we can be busy here, no need to help."
"Xiaochi, do you dislike that there are too few people from us?"
The village chief asked worriedly.
Zhang Xiaochi smiled bitterly and quickly explained.
"Village chief, what I said is true, there really isn't much going on."
"Eating and drinking well is the biggest support for me, if I can't be busy, I will ask everyone to help."
"That's fine."
The village chief nodded, and continued.
"The reason why we only come with so many people is that there are too many people, and I am afraid that it will affect your normal business."
"I know everyone's mind."
"Here comes the buns!"
At this moment, Zhang Cheng appeared with a basket of fragrant buns, Zhang Xiaochi hurriedly went to wake up the second aunt and others, and everyone got together for breakfast.
After breakfast, under the busyness of everyone, all the matters related to the opening of Chixi Restaurant were also prepared.
"Okay, as soon as the auspicious time comes, you can set off firecrackers and open for business."
"Husband, look at the back."
Suddenly, Lin Xiaoxi next to him gently poked Zhang Xiaochi's arm with his hand.
Zhang Xiaochi turned around and looked at the people and the restaurant opposite, and he sneered.
"I really can't hold it back."
After keeping watch all night last night, there was nothing abnormal, Zhang Xiaochi guessed that Li Yongfu would make a move during the day, and now he really started to fight-for-tat.
"Husband, they actually sold everything in the store at a half-discount, and gave away two taels of wine."
"The price cut on the day we opened, this is deliberately aimed at us."
"It's normal, we open the restaurant opposite the people and the restaurant, and it's not normal if they don't fight back."
Zhang Xiaochi smiled slightly, combined with the reaction of last night and today's people and restaurants, he had a rough guess in his heart, it seems that Li Yongfu does not plan to come to Yin for the time being, this is to have a normal business competition with him.
No matter whether the other party comes to the yin or goes head-to-head, Zhang Xiaochi is not afraid.
"At the very least, like the previous assassinations, there won't be any time coming."
Zhang Xiaochi whispered beside Lin Xiaoxi.
"That's good, as long as you come clearly, I believe that the husband can defeat him!"
Lin Xiaoxi said confidently.
Zhang Xiaochi smiled slightly and added.
"Even if this old boy comes to Yin, he is not my opponent."
"Husband, someone has gone in."
Lin Xiaoxi suddenly reminded.
Zhang Xiaochi looked over, and after passers-by found that Renhe and the restaurant gave away two taels of drinks at half price, people really couldn't resist this temptation.
This kind of marketing method is simply commonplace before the crossing, Zhang Xiaochi did not panic at all, and when the time came, he lit the cold melon firecrackers at the door, and then began to speak loudly, so as to attract people's attention, and then asked Zhang Cheng to hang the plaque of today's opening at the door.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today is the opening day of Chixi Restaurant, in order to thank you for your busy time, the first fifty places can use all the food in the restaurant for free, and after fifty, all consumption is half price."
As soon as these words came out, people suddenly boiled.
Zhang Xiaochi Everyone knows that although he used to be a bastard, he has been good recently, and he is still a tiger hero, and for a while, everyone wants to squeeze into the top 50.
The half-price of Renhe Restaurant is very tempting, but the first 50 places in Chixi Restaurant are more tempting, and everyone is scrambling to squeeze in, not only that, but some people who have already entered Renhe Restaurant have joined the army.
"Brother Zhang, you are really a businessman!"
On the side, looking at the crazy appearance of the people, Zhao Ling'er was secretly speechless, and couldn't help but say softly.
"Little girl, this is just a very ordinary marketing method."
Zhang Xiaochi replied calmly, looking at Zhao Ling'er's look of curiosity, he could only explain.
"If you want to know, I'll tell you later, I'm going to start stir-frying."
After speaking, Zhang Xiaochi glanced at the person opposite and the restaurant, and happened to look at Li Yongfu who was looking at him, and the two glanced at each other, but no one spoke.
Zhang Xiaochi grinned, made an international standard gesture at Li Yongfu, and turned around and squeezed into the restaurant under the other party's puzzled gaze.
Looking at the crowded Chixi Restaurant, Li Yongfu blushed.
He can give half the price because his family has a strong background, and it doesn't hurt to lose money temporarily, and he concluded that Zhang Xiaochi has no assets and will not do this, but who knows, the other party's methods are even more ruthless.
"Notice, today's restaurant is not only half price, anyone who comes to the restaurant to consume, will give a pound of wine for free!"
"Also, the first 50 people who come to consume can enjoy free drinks in the restaurant for one month."
"Yes!"
Li Yongfu gave an order, and under his generous conditions, there was soon a crazy scene of people in Renhe and the restaurant, scrambling to squeeze into the top 50 places one by one.
As a result, the two restaurants facing the door had a crazy scene where the threshold was almost trampled on.
Seeing that the situation between the two families was almost the same, Li Yongfu breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he did not completely relax, and in the first meeting, the two were evenly matched in the eyes of outsiders, but he knew that in a sense, he had already lost to the mud legs he looked down on.
"Boy, don't be complacent, this time I underestimated the enemy, and next time you won't be so good!"
Li Yongfu muttered to himself softly, looking at the lively scene of Chixi Restaurant, Zhang Xiaochi's gesture just now suddenly appeared in his mind, and he raised his middle finger and muttered to himself.
"What does that mean?"
……
In the kitchen, Zhang Xiaochi was very busy alone, fortunately his physical fitness was beyond ordinary people, otherwise, under such a high-intensity work, he would definitely not be able to bear it.
However, although he is busy, he has always been able to maintain the speed and quality of the dishes.
With this, the two people who worked in the kitchen were stunned in surprise, and bluntly said that Zhang Xiaochi was the reincarnation of a god, after all, both of them were tired, but Zhang Xiaochi just sweated a little, looking at his lively appearance, it seemed that he didn't feel tired.
"Xiaochi, aren't you tired?"
"It's okay, I'm a little tired."
Zhang Xiaochi secretly blamed himself for being too involved in stir-frying, forgetting to hide his special strength, and at the same time reminding himself that he could not casually show his physical fitness far beyond ordinary people in the future.
