Chapter 21: Oily Noodles
Sure enough, as Zhou Zhou expected, it was impossible for the 'above' to stipulate the price of each train meal in detail, and since this was the case, he had a way to deal with it.
"Aunt Xia, compared with those high-speed trains and bullet trains, our X164 has one of the most significant characteristics, that is, the passengers on the car are polarized between rich and poor......
Those passengers who rush to enjoy life and enjoy the scenery on the road are even more rich and free than those who must take high-speed trains and planes when they go out; However, there are also some passengers who only get on the train because of the low price of the X164 hard seat, they are not in the mood to enjoy life, but they are the busiest group of passers-by.
The X164 ride is the longest in the country's rail system, and these financially distressed passengers may have to sit in a hard seat for more than a dozen hours, or even dozens of hours! But they were reluctant to buy a hot boxed lunch, so they could only eat cheap instant noodles and ham sausages made from meat of unknown origin......
Is this fair?
Can this reflect the purpose of serving the people that we X164 has always adhered to?
So, why can't we lower the price of the regular boxed lunches that are served in each car, and at the same time increase the price of the 'fine dishes' on the dining car?
I suggest that from noon today, ordinary boxed lunches will be sold for ten yuan each; However, the 'yellow cabbage' and 'Jiangnan lotus leaf rice' currently served by the dining car have to be greatly increased!
Yellow cabbage is mentioned at 128 yuan a piece, Jiangnan lotus leaf rice is mentioned at 88 yuan a piece, and we can provide free soup and black tea to the guests in the dining car.
Although the price of these two dishes may seem a bit high, I think my craft is worth the price!
Aunt Xia, with the high profit of the dining car's 'boutique dishes', you can completely make up for the 'loss' of returning to ordinary box lunches, and in the end, the average calculation will not violate the guide price given above, won't the problem be solved? ”
"It's a shame you can figure it out......"
Zhang Xia frowned and thought for a while: "You kid is a ghost, this kind of practice is called 'differentiated management' if it sounds good, and if it doesn't sound good, it is 'killing the rich and helping the poor', aren't you afraid that those passengers who want to go to the dining car to eat will complain about you?" ”
"Aunt Xia, rich people eat a grade, the higher the price, the happier they will be, otherwise why can those Michelin restaurants sell a small bite of food at a sky-high price? And you can't be too expensive, what is too expensive is the soil buns, and if you want to eat, you have to make an appointment half a year in advance.
We're much better than those Michelin-starred restaurants, and the passengers who come to the food truck will pay a little more but will be satisfied, and as long as they eat well, who will be idle to complain about me?
Even if there are really one or two people who don't open their eyes, with Aunt Xia covering you, what am I afraid of? ”
Zhang Xia scolded with a smile: "Phew, nonsense! I'm not a black club, what covers you doesn't cover you.
You'll have to let me think about it......
Also, if we lower the price of ordinary lunch boxes, will you be able to support it alone? Aunt Xia is already ready to arrange an assistant for you, but it will take time. ”
Although she said this, Zhang Xia actually agreed with Zhou Zhou's suggestion very much, and she had long thought about seeking some benefits for those passengers who were in financial distress.
Among these passengers are migrant workers living at the lowest level, and rural people who take the elderly and children to the big city to see a doctor, and they can spend a lot of money for their families without blinking an eye, but they are reluctant to buy a hot boxed lunch on the train.
If the price of the boxed lunch can be reduced, at least these passengers can eat nutritious hot meals and hot dishes, and relieve some of the hardships of the journey.
"Don't worry, Aunt Xia, I'm not young, what is it for young people to do more? Besides, we are serving the people, but we can't complain about being tired. ”
Zhou Zhou has actually figured it out for a long time, although it will be harder, but the only way to accumulate various culinary skills is this; And if he wants to complete the systematic task of selling 500 percent of pasta in 12 hours, he must first reduce the price of ordinary box lunches.
Otherwise, no matter how good your skills are, those passengers who are financially strapped will not buy train meals.
Zhang Xia didn't let Zhou Zhou wait too long, and half an hour later, Xiao Zhang's sweet female voice appeared in the radio speakers of each carriage.
"Passengers, good news for everyone.
At the suggestion of the chef of Zhouzhou of our car, the conductor studied and approved, in order to uphold the purpose of serving the people that our car has always adhered to, and in order to let every passenger have a hot meal, starting from today's lunch, the ordinary boxed lunch provided by our car will be reduced from 20 yuan to 10 yuan ......"
"What, the price of the lunch box on the x164 is going to be reduced?
Ten yuan a box, now there is really no such price, and you may not be able to eat it in a restaurant outside. ”
"How else to say it's a red flag train, Master Xiao Zhou is a good person, and the train captain is also a good person... Mother, let's also buy a hot boxed lunch at noon today, I heard that the boxed lunch made by Master Xiao Zhou is delicious.
You always want to save money for your children, but you love instant noodles... Don't stop me this time, didn't the doctor say that you need to take nutrition. ”
A man with a wrinkled face lowered his voice and discussed with the old lady, occasionally raising his head, his eyes full of joy after the vicissitudes of life.
Xiao Zhang continued to say sweetly on the radio: "At the same time, the food car's 'fine dishes' series will increase the price, and today at noon, we will continue to launch 'yellow cabbage' and 'Jiangnan lotus leaf rice', the price is 128 yuan and 88 yuan respectively, in order to give back to passengers, we will give free soup and black tea ......"
"Is there any mistake, isn't this the modern version of killing the rich and helping the poor!
How can x164 do this, no, I have to complain about them! ”
As soon as a man in a casual suit in the hard sleeper compartment complained, he saw a few disdainful glances looking at him, including the beautiful passenger opposite who had made him peep many times, and suddenly blushed a little, and muttered in a low voice: "I'm just saying, we can't really afford to eat......"
Xiao Zhang's sweet voice sounded again: "Passengers, today's ordinary lunch is a noodle dish called 'oily noodles'!"
To be honest, it's the first time I've ever known that there is such a face, so I'm really looking forward to it......
Our Zhouzhou chef said that the characteristics of the noodles determine that it can not be stored in the lunch box for a long time, otherwise the taste will be discounted, so we will serve the meal as soon as possible, and we hope that the passengers who are ready to taste this noodle do not hesitate to buy it as soon as possible! ”
In order to increase the grasp of completing the system task, Zhouzhou chose the oily noodles that are relatively quick to eat; This dish has two major advantages, the first is that it is a noodle dish that has never appeared in this parallel world, and secondly, it is also a type of noodles that can be stored for a long time and does not crumble up as easily as soup noodles.
"What, oily noodles?
The geese in Xishan Province know how to eat noodles the most, but they have never heard of this kind of noodles?
But it seems to be delicious when you hear the name, and it's only ten yuan a box?
The goose has decided to eat it at noon today! ”
"I just checked on the Internet, and I haven't found this oily noodles all over the world, is it like that 'yellow cabbage', is it original created by Chef Zhou?
Yuanyuan, why don't we eat Jiangnan lotus leaf rice at noon today, and try this oily noodles? ”
Yuanyuan's male classmate and boyfriend are very happy, now the Jiangnan lotus leaf rice has risen to eighty-eight, and the two of them have to be two hundred, and Chef Zhou's introduction of this oily noodles is too timely.
"Hmph, you know you're trying to save money! But forget it, I actually want to try this oily noodles. ”
Yuan Yuan glanced at her boyfriend, don't look at what she says fiercely, in fact, she is still very good at thinking about him in her bones......
"Oily noodles? It's a strange name, and hopefully it's a surprise. ”
Xu Ning showed a hint of a smile, as far as he knew, even the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi, which were the best at eating noodles, had never seen this kind of noodles, and this opportunity to see new food could not be easily missed.
And as long as ten yuan a piece, the cost performance is too high.
