Chapter Seventy-One: Money
While Song Xiong was shocked by the turnover, the stewards and disciples of the Invincible Zongmei Canteen were also very busy.
The shop opposite the livability has been closed and converted into a restaurant, called "True Kung Fu"!
The reason why Guan Chang used the name "True Kung Fu" was because he especially liked to eat the steamed rice of the "True Kung Fu" family in later generations, and on the other hand, he felt that this name was particularly martial arts!
Ma Dadao, the owner of the Invincible Zongmei Canteen, has begun to manage "True Kung Fu" in a manner similar to that of a family business.
Ma Dadao's mother, Widow Ma, led some families in Majia Village to take charge of the fast food department, while Jiang Tang's good friend Li Dou took some of the Li family's buddies to take charge of the snack department.
The fast food department deals in various set menus, mainly porridge and noodle sets and fried chicken sets.
The snack bar does not serve staple food, nor does it provide dine-in establishments, and mainly focuses on cooked food and skewers.
Of course, the recipes used in both the fast food and snack bars were copied by Guan Chang from later generations. In order to prevent the new concept of the set meal from being inconsistent with the taste of the people of Tan County, he deliberately let all the food sold to the outside be tested and tasted in the canteen of the Invincible Sect, until the disciples of the Invincible Sect were full of praise, and the recipe was finalized.
"Big knife, don't watch from the sidelines, go and fry the yam strips!" The horse widow was already in a hurry in the room, and she suddenly saw her son coming in from outside the door, and subconsciously instructed him to work.
"Mother, I'm the hall master now. You don't need me to cook—" Before he could finish his sentence, he watched as the horse widow took a large spoon and was ready to crack open the skull of this unfilial son.
"You little bastard, if you become a hall master, you are not the son of an old lady!" Widow Ma wiped the sweat from her head and shouted: "If you don't mention this hall master, I'm not angry, what do you say this beautiful canteen has become for you, can you recruit some decent cooks to work." You group of martial arts disciples have nothing to do, so what's the matter with running to the room to help!"
"Mother, don't be angry, I'll go and get that fried yam. Ma Dadao regretted coming in to supervise the back kitchen, he, the hall master, really didn't need to cook and work in terms of duties, only needed to manage and distribute human beings, and supervise and accept the results.
But he did see that everyone in the kitchen was busy with their feet on the floor, and everyone wanted to grow three heads and six arms.
The kitchen of the "True Kung Fu" fast food department is different from the traditional catering production mode of this era. The "real kung fu" kitchen is closer to the assembly line, and each person only takes one to two steps. Before the opening of Zhen Kung Fu, they had conducted a stress test - with the efficiency of the "Zhen Kung Fu" fast food department, they could produce 80 set meals every half an hour.
The number of diners today was two or three times more than expected, and Ma Dadao felt a headache at the same time as he was happy. The production capacity of the American canteen is really not enough!
The "True Kung Fu" fast food department is already overcrowded, with diners chatting and waiting, queuing up to order, huddle together to eat, and holding a bamboo tray and unable to find a place.
Finally, after a diner got a queue number plate, a disciple of the Invincible Sect shouted: "There is no need to wait for the back, the ingredients are almost exhausted today." ”
The restaurant is so popular that the ingredients are sold out, which is the first time in Tan County.
The disciple apologized again and again, and handed out a small wooden sign to each of the people who did not line up, which was called: "True Kung Fu" coupons. With this coupon, you can enjoy half price on a single item (not a set meal) at your next meal.
And the "Real Kung Fu" snack bar was well prepared, but there was no embarrassing scene of selling out. It's just that there are only two sales and weighing windows in the snack bar, and everyone is very slow to settle the bill with copper coins, so there are several queues on the street. If it weren't for a group of family members from the Qian Mansion to help maintain order, someone would have already fought because of cutting the line!
"Doudou, it's too slow to sell like this, and many people in the back are not satisfied!" Li Dou's father, Li Guangtian, approached the store with some concern, he never expected that one day he would be worried because the business was too good. He saw that so many people couldn't stand the queue and gave up, only to feel that a lot of money was leaking out of his pocket, and he couldn't pick it up.
Li Dou was already busy, repeating the process of picking up and weighing like a machine. Now she can grasp it - she can take as much as she says, and she is quite familiar with the kung fu in her hands.
"What can I do, I'm so tired, so tired. Li Dou felt that she didn't want to make money, she stood in place for an hour, her back hurt, and her fingers were about to be broken.
"Oops. A voice sounded from behind, it turned out that Jiang Tang was busy running to find Li Dou, only to find that Li Dou was almost exhausted on the platform. "Doudou girl, don't you fight so hard. ”
"You can say cool things, you see how long the line behind you is! Here is the fastest way for me to work, Brother Jiang will find a way to save me!" Li Dou continued to grab the goods and weigh them, while squeezing tears and asking Jiang Tang for help.
Jiang Tang thought to himself that I wouldn't be overly committed, and I was notoriously slow at work.
At this time, he looked at the fast food department on the side, why is the fast food department checking out so fast? Jiang Tang's great specialty is that he is good at observation, and then according to the results of observation, he comes up with a "moth......
He looked at it for a while, and it really made him see the doorway. He found that the fast food department didn't need to be weighed, saving a lot of time. And all set meals have a fixed price, and many diners will count the copper coins in advance.
Jiang Tang pondered for a moment and had already made up his mind. He went to the back kitchen and took out a dozen small bamboo baskets, picked some soy products and jerky from the deli shelf and put them in.
"Uncle Li, how much do you think these are?"
Li Guangtian glanced at it and said, "Although I haven't weighed it, the size of these foods is about the same, and this box is about twenty-five to thirty." ”
Jiang Tang asked again, "Which of today's snacks has the most left?"
Li Guangtian pointed to the dried salted fish on the side, and Jiang Tang picked up two more dried salted fish and put them in the basket. Then he beckoned to a disciple behind him: "The snack department has opened a new window, only selling cooked food platters, twenty-five yuan a piece, directly grab it according to the appearance in this small basket, the number is about the same, no need to overweigh it, as fast as you can!"
Li Guangtian wanted to stop it, I'm afraid it's too cheap to sell it like this, and the small dried fish is basically given away for free. However, he quickly understood Jiang Tang's intentions, and the problem of the snack department now is that the efficiency is too low, not that the profit is too small. If this efficiency is increased several times, what does it matter if the profit is slightly less, and it is the dried fish that cannot be sold that is used to increase costs and pull down profits. This Jiang Tang seems to have been a lot smarter since he entered the Invincible Sect!
......
The hot scene of livability and real kung fu continued until Shen Shi, not because everyone was enthusiastic, nor because it was late.
It's because of Livable and True Kung Fu, all goods are sold out across the board. Livable even emptied the furniture in the model room and was almost demolished by the customer. Zhen Kung Fu's snack bar was sold out within half an hour of starting to sell "delicatessen platters", and even the disciples of the Invincible Sect had lunch at other restaurants in the workshop.
At night, Guan Chang and Liguan Bai sat in the Ming Hall in the livable backyard to listen to Song Xiong's summary of today's financial report.
The number of transactions reached more than 400 times, and the sales volume reached 3,517 taels.
Zhen Kung Fu received more than 300 customers, with sales of 72 taels.
