"That's because the management is not formal. If there are special people to operate and manage, the signboard of xiaohetang will be louder and louder..." Li Zeyu was confident and patted his chest to ensure.
"What's getting louder and louder? Your voice is not as loud as it used to be. "
Boss Tang came in with a smile and handed two bottles of iced beer to Li Zeyu. "Would you like some?"
"Have some!"
Li Zeyu took a bottle and didn't go into the cup. He touched boss Tang and blew it directly.
"Old man, you talk to Zeyu. I'm busy at the bar."
The bar can't be empty. Boss Tang comes in to chat. The landlady must guard it. After all, there is cash in the bar.
"Uncle Tang, I talked to my aunt just now. We are all people with shares in the company and shareholders of xiaohetang catering management company. We can't let my aunt be busy every day. We don't need money."
"Work hard and stay idle."
Boss Tang waved his hand, "your aunt and I don't have any entertainment activities, and my son is not around. If we don't find something to do every day, we can't stay at all."
"Then find yourself something not too tired. How about opening a chain store?"
Li Zeyu entered the theme from entering the door until he had half a meal.
"Open a chain store? Hehe, you boy... "
Boss Tang kept shaking his fingertips at Li Zeyu, "you wanted to be a chain store from the beginning, didn't you? Because I didn't agree all the time, I went back to the second place and made a self cooking hot pot. Now let me see that self cooking hot pot makes money, so I'll mention it again? "
"Uncle Tang, I think it's especially suitable for you. Ginger is really old and spicy. How do you know what I think?"
Li Zeyu smiled and flattered, and touched the wine bottle with boss Tang. They both took a big sip. The cool beer can just eliminate the spicy of Sichuan hot pot.
"Zeyu... I won't call you manager Li. It seems too outspoken. Isn't it necessary for us?"
"No need, no need!"
Li Zeyu just wants to get close to boss Tang. Since Yingying's self cooking hot pot came into the market, their relationship is indeed more solid than before.
"Zeyu, uncle Tang, I'll tell you the truth today. I'm from Sichuan and Shu. My son is also studying at a university in other places. Over the years, I've heard about what national chain catering brands various catering groups do, but our hot pot really can't be a national chain!"
"Why? Your ancestral sauce tastes pure, and the hot pot is so delicious. Let alone in the city, even if I'm in the provincial capital, I haven't eaten such delicious Sichuan hot pot. Uncle Tang, did you enlarge the smoke in the sauce? Otherwise, how can people get greedy without eating for a few days? "
Li Zeyu is really fond of xiaohetang's hot pot. He drives back to Qingshu county every week. First, he visits his parents and second, he goes to the company to see the situation. But for his food, the most important thing is to go to xiaohetang to have a spicy and fresh hot pot.
"Smoke? We don't do that kind of immoral thing. In our base material formula, there are more than 60 kinds of ingredients added together, which can produce this taste according to a certain proportion. In addition, I fry the base material manually. The base material fried for more than ten hours is enough for four or five days. "
"It's not difficult. Now there are machines that can replace labor. Even if you have to fry the base material manually, we can hire people to work in three shifts, and the base material produced is enough."
"Not just the primer."
Boss Tang shook his head and pointed to the ingredients on the table. "Look, these ingredients, vegetables, are all collected from the old farmers around the county. There are no pesticides, fertilizers and pure green food.
"When you look at the beef and mutton, they are all cattle and sheep raised in the mountains. There are few cattle and sheep in our local area. I buy grass grazing livestock near Honglin city. When I come back, I kill them in the morning and give them to customers at noon and at night. Even the least fresh is only two days at most."
"And these internal organs are also fresh. All these add up, you will have a delicious hot pot. Therefore, once the ingredients are not fresh, or the livestock are promoted by vegetables and feed hormones with pesticides and fertilizers, even if there is my hot pot bottom, it will not have such a pure taste."
"It sounds like that."
Li Zeyu tasted one by one from vegetables to beef and mutton to tripe and duck blood. Even if it's just the taste of hot pot at the bottom of soup, it tastes fresher and better than that of other hot pot shops.
"I now cooperate with several small vegetable farmers around Qingshu county. Their food materials are enough for my store. If there is a second store, I have to add ordinary food materials in the market. Do you think I can give up our signboard and taste for the money made by a store?"
"Speaking... It doesn't seem to be possible."
Li Zeyu was in trouble and sighed with disappointment.
"Uncle Tang, to be honest, the sales of our self cooking hot pot have doubled. Recently, several catering companies and individuals have called to inquire whether they can join or buy out the formula. Now it seems that I think too much."
"Zeyu, you don't have to worry. Should I be more upset? Is it a little incompetent to have a good formula but can't make money? "
Boss Tang smiled helplessly, "I've always wanted to buy a piece of land for my son in his hometown and build a big house so that he can marry and have children in the future. Although he has made some money over the years, the land price and house price of his hometown are also rising. I always feel that it seems that I may not be able to build a small foreign building in my life."
"Uncle, this is not necessarily ah. The self cooking hot pot of our xiaohetang catering management company also has a good income. You will earn more when you open a larger market next year. Your idea can definitely be realized."
The two men were all depressed. Apart from blowing wine on the bottle and facing the fragrant hot pot, they had no appetite. Even if Li Zeyu comforted them, boss Tang still smiled bitterly.
"Forget it... I'm too old to make money. Without the hard work of your young people, Zeyu, I don't object to opening a chain store. I even hope that the ancestral flavor of our Tang family can spread to the north and south of the motherland, so..."
Boss Tang drank up half a bottle of beer and took a mouthful of pickled vegetables. "As long as you can ensure that the ingredients are fresh, green, pollution-free and free of chemical fertilizer and pesticide residues, I will agree with you to open a chain store. How about it?"
"How's it going? Not so good... Hehe! "
Li Zeyu smiled bitterly and pointed to the ingredients on the table. "Vegetables without pesticides and chemical fertilizers, cattle, sheep and livestock running and eating grass on the mountain, and it takes more than ten hours to manually fry the hot pot bottom. Where can I get these things?"
