"Tatsuma-sama, is that you? It's been a long time, why are you free today? ”

Squinting hands, he was counting the things to be used for tomorrow's opening, but when he looked up, he found that there were people in the store that had not yet opened, and when he saw the identity of the person, his smile became extremely enthusiastic.

Although the store will only open tomorrow, it is not the first day of the ramen business, but he used to work for the teacher, worked as an apprentice for a few years, saved money for a few years, and took advantage of the teacher's retirement, he just took the store down.

Anyway, during the war, the business was very average, and the hand beat to the store to come to a major renovation, after the renovation was ready to open the store, it just so happened that the war in various places seemed to be coming to an end.

Recently, the number of ninjas in the village has also begun to increase, and the civilians who are terrified by the war no longer resist consumption, and now is the best time to open.

Later, I'm afraid that other shops will also hold activities, and when the time comes, the half-price of his new store is estimated to not attract attention, and there will not be enough consumers to warm up earlier.

I have been in business with my teacher for a few years, and I still understand this basic knowledge, and at the same time, he has also attracted some customers during the years when he worked in the teacher's shop.

For example, Sakamoto Tatsuma in front of him, although Tatsuma used to come to their store and never ordered according to the menu, Tatsuma is a high-quality customer.

The consumption power is not low, the eating speed is fast, and the same flop time, Chen Ma can top the income of several customers alone.

Not to mention Chenma's prestige in the village, if it opens tomorrow, Chenma can come for a meal, then the flow of customers in the early stage of the opening, I'm afraid there is no need to worry.

Thinking of this, the smile became more and more bright and enthusiastic, and Tatsuma sat on the brand-new stool, stroking the countertop without the slightest greasy feeling with both hands, and said with a smile:

"Just passing by, seeing your door open, I'll come in and have a look."

"Why don't I make you a bowl of ramen?" It's so late, eat some hot noodles, and you can be a little more comfortable when you sleep. ”

"Actually, I'm a little nervous about opening tomorrow, after all, I haven't made ramen in a while, so it would be great if you could give some feedback," said Shoda. ”

Tatsuma touched his stomach, nodded, and said, "Okay, I haven't eaten ramen for a long time, I hope your craftsmanship hasn't regressed." ”

Hearing this, he turned around and began to prepare, because it was not a meal, and many things had to be prepared temporarily, but the soup base and other time-consuming ingredients had already been prepared in advance.

Looking at the rolling soup, Tatsuma said, "This tonkotsu soup has been cooked for a long time, right?" ”

"Well, it needs to be boiled for more than half a day before the soup becomes white and thick, and it tastes better."

"Actually, you can use a pressure cooker."

"The soup pressed out by the pressure cooker is too clear, and although it tastes similar, it always feels a little worse."

Shouda shook his head, although there is no stubborn concept of food, but many steps, not to say that change can be changed.

"The two can be combined, the color and richness of the tonkotsu broth are essentially the precipitation of gum and lipids and boiling, using a pressure cooker to reduce the time for flavor formation, and at the same time precipitating gum and lipids faster.

It's just that because the pressure cooker doesn't boil, the soup won't turn white, and after turning on the pressure cooker, it's about the same if you boil for another half an hour, which can save at least half of the time. ”

Hearing Tatsuma's words, the action of kneading the dough with his hands stopped, and there were doubts in his squinting eyes, what Tatsuma said seemed to make sense, but. Hand punched and didn't fully understand.

But this was Tatsuma's suggestion, and he was silent for a moment, but still said, "I'll try it, if it's feasible, then it will really help." ”

If what Tatsuma said is true, he can save at least three hours a day, and these times he can make more rest, and he can also free up time to develop new products. Spend more time with your wife and children.

Thinking about his wife and daughter, the action of kneading the dough with his hands became more powerful, and he talked to Tatsuma from time to time, so as not to snub the guests.

It took some time, and according to the memory of hand-beaten, noodles, meat, eggs, and vegetables were added, but the ramen with little salt was prepared by him and served in front of Tatsuma.

"Tatsuma-sama, let's try it."

"Then you're welcome."

Tatsuma raised his chopsticks, and without too much ceremony, he ate it, and after showing off two halves of hot spring eggs and half a bowl of noodles, as well as a few meat dishes, Tatsuma took the time to say, "OEC!" ”

Originally, he was a little nervous about hand-fighting, but he put his mind at ease, with a smile, and gently cleaned the workbench, a bowl of noodles was quickly eaten by Chenma, and hand-beating immediately asked, "Are you full?" ”

"It's not good to eat too much for supper, it's enough, thank you."

Chen Ma shook his head and refused to add noodles by hand, drank the tea served by the hand, and said, "I saw the poster of your opening, and tomorrow the whole audience will be 50% off, right?" ”

"Well, if it's lower, it'll fall below the cost price, or I'd like to go even lower to attract more customers."

Hand nodded and said, I don't care about announcing the cost price to Chenma, after all, the gross profit of the catering industry is about 50%, many people know, but people come to the store to eat, but they don't come to eat cheaper than cooking by themselves.

It's about saving your time, valuing the chef's craft, the atmosphere of your meal, or whatever.

Tatsuma took another sip of tea and said his real motivation for coming, and he said tentatively: "Actually, discounts are not a good activity, for merchants.

Because this kind of direct concession will only make customers feel that they have spent less money, and there is none. Earned the feeling, so you have to do more activities. ”

The hand was stunned, and he couldn't help asking, "What kind of activity?" ”

"Are those big bowls of the Big Stomach Game still there?"

"Yes."

"Then you can do one more activity tomorrow, you make three times the amount of noodles, five times the amount of meat, and then price five hundred taels, and then make a big stomach challenge brand, as long as you can eat it within a certain time, then this bowl of noodles will be free."

If you can't finish eating, you will pay at the price of 500 taels, but if you return a few 6 or 7% off coupons, I believe that many people will try it, and those who fail to challenge will also become repeat customers.

However, remember to stipulate the validity period of the discount coupon, such as half a month, no matter how long it is, it is not conducive to promotion, and it will also make fake discount coupons appear, which will damage your own profits. ”

Hearing Chenma's words, there seemed to be a glimmer of light in his eyes, if according to Chenma's words, the cost of a noodle is only about a hundred taels, five people challenge, even if four people succeed and one person fails, he can actually recover the cost.

And the gimmick of "eating 500 taels of noodles for free" seems to be very attractive, even if it fails, you can get a discount coupon after paying, if you ask a few people, or simply eat as a family, the guests are not very bad.

Even if the promotion cycle of the event can be extended, the guests who get the discount coupon will definitely not come to consume alone, but will find a way to attract more people to make the discount coupon more effective.

And in this way, these customers are also helping his ramen restaurant to promote. There was a condensed light of worship in his eyes, and he looked at Tatsuma, and he felt in his heart that he was worthy of being a fourth-generation adult, and he was better than others even in business.

Hand looked at the clock on the wall, and said with some regret: "It's too late now, so I can only print it early tomorrow." ”

"What are you doing with that kind of thing? I'll make it for you, but tomorrow if I bring someone to challenge me successfully, you can't regret taking my money. ”

Tatsuma waved his hand and took out the scroll that had been prepared, and before he could react, Tatsuma broke the seal and unsealed, and a pile of paper that Tatsuma used to practice paper art appeared.

Between the seals, thousands of pieces of paper floated up, and Tatsuma asked, "Six or seven folds?" ”

"Six-fold, right?"

"Good!"

The seal style in Chenma's hand changed, and on the plain white paper that allowed Chakra to flow, a black sealing technique appeared, and between the integration of the techniques, a text was formed.

The talent of [Magnetic Sand Tea Cauldron] makes Chenma's sealing technique very good. Freedom, even if these meaningless sealing techniques, can become extremely strong.

With a wave of his hand, thousands of discount coupons were made, neatly stacked on the table, Chen Ma picked one up and said: "By the way, I made an anti-counterfeiting label for you, as long as you tear it up, the text on it will fade quickly." ”

"Tear Pull~"

Tatsuma said and tore the paper in his hand, and the technique composed of chakra on it dissipated instantly, and his hand opened his mouth wide. Peace of mind, right?

No matter how good the printing house is, it can't print such a good anti-counterfeiting coupon, and he doesn't know what to say, so he opened the drawer, looked at it, and said:

"Lord Tatsuma, I only have 50,000 taels left, I don't know if I can buy enough"

"It's like an opening gift, and it's too cheesy to talk about money."

Chenma waved his hand, how could he shoot so cheaply, even if he took out only 50,000 taels by hand, it was impossible for Chenma to ask for it, after all, it was too much to lower his value, so it was better to give it away directly.

Just like many photographers, some friendship orders are directly free of charge and do not destroy their market value, which is true for individuals and enterprises.

Many companies will make a lot of moves, so that the financial report shows losses year after year, in order to make their value not determined, the market value of the company that loses money is "unlimited", once profitable, the market value is fixed.

He looked at Chenma gratefully and said, "Thank you so much, not only for giving me advice, but also for personally helping me make so many discount coupons for Lord Chenma, as long as I am still open in the future, you can come to eat noodles and be free of charge." ”

Tatsuma waved his hand and said, "That's not good, you still have to collect the money that should be collected, as long as you remember my taste in the future, today's ramen is delicious and suits my taste." ”

"Yes, I know you don't like salty food, so I cut down on the noodles and soup."

Hand beat said with a smile, in the past, Tatsuma often had to boil water to dilute the ramen, but at that time it was the teacher's shop, and Hand Da did not dare to change the recipe easily.

Now that it's his own shop, he will naturally adjust it according to Tatsuma's taste, in fact, it's not just Tatsuma, he remembers the tastes of many customers, such as Kushina-sama, she likes to add salt.

Tatsuma nodded, took out his wallet, and said, "Then we'll see you tomorrow." ”

Seeing that Chenma was about to pay for it, he hurriedly said, "Lord Chenma, this. The shop isn't open yet, so I can't take your money. ”

"Alright then, not next time."

Chen Ma said solemnly, he is a person who does not accept a stitch from the masses!
