Chapter 17: Master of Noodles

Coming out of the pastry room, Wang Xiansuo saw Li Zheyu chatting with a burly man about 60 years old.

"Let me introduce you, this is my uncle's classmate Mr. Su, and this company is run by Mr. Su. Mr. Su, this is our boss, Mr. Wang Xiansuo" Li Zheyu introduced to both parties.

Mr. Su took the initiative to reach out and shake Wang Xiansuo's hand: "Mr. Wang is young and promising, Xiao Li introduced your project to me just now, which is really a very good marketing model." I don't have any business here, and the previous pastry chef is gone, and this chef is also a stir-fry master, so it is estimated that it will be difficult to make. ”

"You didn't come just now, I went in with your sales to visit, the equipment is quite professional, as long as the standardized operation can fully meet the needs." Wang Xiansuo knows that time is pressing, and now looking for another try is estimated to bring complaints from follow-up franchisees.

"Mr. Su, I have an idea, do you have two canteens in the park, are they all open?" Wang Xiansuo asked.

"The whole park is more than 3,000 acres, just a square, each side is about 2 kilometers long, our canteen is in the middle, now we are in the southwest corner of the park, this canteen basically no one comes to eat, so this year we plan to suspend this business, after all, such a large restaurant is an expense, can not afford to spend." Mr. Su introduced it.

"Mr. Su, do you think this is okay? Since this house is going to be closed, can you rent it to me? ”

"Yes, you must have heard Xiao Li say that the park allows us to serve here, so we signed a 10-year lease for one yuan a year, and now we have invested too much equipment, and there is not much money for these depreciations, so you can take it away if you want to use it." But I have one condition. "This canteen is already chicken ribs.

"You said, as long as I'm almost fine, it's okay to rent more or less, after all, you are Uncle Zheyu's classmate, and we also regard you as an uncle!" Wang Xiansuo was almost stuck, he was secretly thinking about how to start, and he would have to consult the line teacher later.

"Yesterday I was going to arrange more than 40 guys in the middle of the canteen, they are all old guys who have been with them for a long time, now the business in the park is not good, there is no need for so many people, I gritted my teeth and did not dismiss them, you see if you can use some of these workers, the rent here does not have to be paid." Mr. Su said his unspeakable secret, in this era of high-speed information development, these old guys are all from traditional crafts, and they really can't keep up.

"Uncle! Don't worry, you calculate the rent as usual, and use your 10-15 workers at the same time. Do you think it's okay? Wang Xiansuo felt that this place would definitely be a good choice in a short period of time.

"That's great, I want to thank you, Mr. Wang, do you think you need to cooperate here? Can be arranged."

"No, that's it, I'm going to sign a contract with you and start production in the next two days." Wang Xiansuo shook hands with Mr. Su and went back.

In order to work better, Wang Xiansuo has lived in the loft, Gao Yijie's office is big enough, he bought an air cushion sleeping bag tent, and if he can't sleep at night, he can go to the top floor zoo Rua to see small animals.

Early the next morning, Wang Xiansuo had just finished feeding the small animals and was about to go out to feed himself, when he heard a message from downstairs: "Reverse, please pay attention!" Reverse, please be careful! ”

The small truck of [Xinxin Times] came to the studio, and Zhang Hua and Gao Feng also came with the truck. Wang Xiansuo went downstairs and saw the two of them and the driver unloading the machine from the car, and hurriedly went up to take the handle.

"Mr. Wang, I brought two back this time, and more than 500 machines in the factory have been debugged and can be sent to franchisees at any time. Yesterday, Mr. Qiao seemed to have arranged for workers to continue to modify the inventory. Zhang Hua introduced the situation.

Wang Xiansuo asked the two of them to go back to rest for half a day, and then come back in the afternoon to hand over the machine to Qiu Xiaoying, and let her use the machine as a background in the live broadcast room and vigorously promote it. Later, Wang Xiansuo went to a nearby breakfast shop and called Da Liu while eating.

"Brother Liu, it's early! I'm Xiao Wang."

"I heard it, the monkey called me yesterday and said you went to find me, what's the matter?" Da Liu asked curiously.

"Brother Liu, I was deeply impressed by the dumplings you made before, I didn't say that I was going to start a catering project after the year, I would like to ask you to come over and guide me." Ha ha. ”

"No kidding, what can I instruct! I'm just messing around, and I have a little hobby of cooking. Da Liu said no, but his heart was very beautiful.

"Brother Liu, where are you, I'll talk to you."

"I just arrived at this food factory in the past two days, and the physical examination report has not yet come out, so I can't go to work yet, so I temporarily live in my hometown's house for two days. Do you know Hongpu Town? It's about 30 kilometers away from you, it's a suburb, and I'm here. ”

"Okay, I've added your WeChat, send me a location by sending it to me." Wang Xiansuo was ready to go over and talk about it.

Wang Xiansuo returned to the studio and drove to go out, and saw a few powerful young men dragging the machine into the live broadcast room together, and as soon as the power was turned on, the machine entered the state of boot self-inspection, and a circle of marquee flashed three colors of yellow and white powder regularly, like a candy machine, which was particularly beautiful, and other friends came to watch.

The modified machine has a cargo lane that is narrower than other lanes, and there is a sticker on the glass door to prompt: how to get a figure "Every time you buy a bun, the WeChat ID account will have a point to give, and the points can be drawn, and you will get a figure if you consume up to 125 points." Wang Xiansuo felt that there was a problem when discussing this plan with everyone at that time, and today he finally remembered the word on the sticker, "must get" This is a bad trick that a grandson of the goose factory came up with.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Wang Xiansuo drove the company's official car to the location address given by Da Liu, which is an old industrial area, and most of the factories are very old. The car stopped in front of a row of peasant houses, Da Liu wore a gray jacket with an open jacket, a yellow hand sweater inside, and his hair was messy, shouting to this side: "Boss Wang, here, here!" ”

Wang Xiansuo walked over and handed him a cigarette, and Da Liu waved his hand: "Don't smoke"

"Did you leave the site because you didn't want to smell secondhand smoke?" Wang Xiansuo said with a smile.

"No, no, I just want to learn how to make food, save some more money and go back to my hometown."

"How much money is paid here a month?"

"It's not a few thousand dollars."

"Thousands?"

"3,000 in the first month, 5,000 after the regularization, is not as tiring as the construction site, and not as dirty as the construction site." Da Liu said the reason for coming here.

"Do you want to come to me to take a look, the probation period is 5,000 for half a month, and 10,000 after the regularization, do you want to think about it." Wang Xiansuo simply made a condition.

"Boss Wang, what kind of business are you doing?"

"You come with me, I'll take you to see!" Wang Xiansuo was going to take him away directly.

"I'll change into clean clothes and go." Da Liu felt that his outfits were too ordinary, and he was a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, there are no outsiders, you can come with me!" Wang Xiansuo opened the car door and let him get into the car.

This is the westernmost food processing plant area in the city, and the destination is the foreign enterprise park in the easternmost part of the city, about 40 minutes away.

"Da Liu"'s real name is Liu Shuangjiang / male / 35 years old / ancestral home in Shenyue City, graduated from the Northern Chef Technical School. Majoring in Chinese food, self-taught Chinese and Western pastry, his parents are farming in his hometown, and he has not yet started a family, so he can go back to take care of his parents if he wants to earn some money. Wang Xiansuo also probably talked about some job responsibilities, and he arrived quite quickly after chatting along the way.

Wang Xiansuo contacted his "uncle" and said that he would bring the master master to take over the restaurant today, and the "uncle" notified a staff member to open the door in the southwest corner of the restaurant, and left the key to Wang Xiansuo after opening the door.

"Right here, Brother Liu will see if the conditions are okay? You're in charge of producing buns here with 15 employees."

"There are two dough mixers, one dough sheeter, two automatic steamed bun machines, and one pre-steaming track, and we can produce 7,000 buns per hour at full speed. This kind of automatic bun machine is an old model, I saw the latest one some time ago can be 10,000 buns an hour. Da Liu touched this machine and gave advice.

"Is 7000*24=168000 enough? If it's not enough, add another machine. "500 [code special bags] machines can hold 200 buns each, only distribute goods every day without replenishment, the highest pin 5000 * 200 = 1000000 buns. Even if you add 100 directly operated propaganda machines in Sioux City, you can only add another 20,000 per day. "It seems that there is no need to add machinery for the time being, and the existing situation will be run in first.

Wang Xiansuo took out the sample of the buns made here before, and Da Liu felt that this color matching was a little weird, and asked, "This color match is not very good-looking." ”

"What do you think of this red one?" Wang Xiansuo asked for opinions, which can be regarded as an exam.

"I don't recommend making it red, if you can try to make it an appetite color, such as pink, egg yolk, milk color, etc."

"Then I want to ask how pink is made?" Wang Xiansuo asked directly without giving him a chance to stop.

"Pink noodles are usually made with red yeast rice pink pigment, and I remember kneading the noodles with dragon juice and betaine juice, which can also be made into pink noodles." Da Liu replied from memory.

"Monascus pigments? Will it affect the health of consumers? ”

"Red yeast rice powder is a natural red pigment, which is mostly used in the south to make roast meat or tofu. Red yeast rice is steamed with glutinous rice, inoculated with red yeast strains and fermented, and the dark red glutinous rice after fermentation becomes red yeast powder after crushing. The coloring is natural, but it is easy to oxidize, and the printing and dyeing industry can only use it in the catering industry. ”
