Qu Cheng winked at him, “Rest assured, their tongues have been tempered for thousands of years, whether they are good or not is one thing, the key lies in connections.” These people casually throw a few lists to you, designate your small restaurant as a meal ordering unit, and it is enough to feed you for a year.”

“You’re the one who feeds them money.” Xu Cinian smiled angrily and couldn’t help but raise his hand to knock on his braincase.

At this time, Uncle Zhong poked his head out of the back kitchen and shouted, “Hurry back Cinian!” There are too many lists to keep me busy!”

“Okay, here I comes!” Xu Cinian turned back to the kitchen, Qu Cheng reached out to help him put on the chef’s hat, and quickly kissed him, “Fighting Cinian!”

Xu Cinian stretched out his leg, kicked him and hurried into the kitchen.

“Zhao family private room dish” on the first day of opening without absence, the unique style of the restaurant is on the one hand, good things are the last word, even those who are accustomed to eating abalone wings of xx long, XX bureau can not help but praise, “Qu Boy, the restaurant you recommended is indeed worthy of the name, how is this craft so much like the ‘secret six dish’ I ate at the Xu Hotel a few years ago?”

The so-called ‘secret six dish’ are the stewed duck with bamboo shoots, the pig’s trotter pot with lotus, the silver carp head with pickled pepper, the three flavor root, the hot and sour fern root powder and the red meat in the Zhao family banquet. In those days, Xu Jianguo didn’t want others to know that his restaurant took the Zhao family’s secret recipe, so he didn’t even mention the word “Zhao” and always claimed to be the Xu family’s initiative.

Qu Cheng knew the inside story, but smiled without saying anything. He bowed his head and poured the wine. “Six secret dish? How come I haven’t heard of them? My brother’s craftsmanship is so good?”

Several people drank too much wine and talked more. One of them, a 40-50 year-old real estate tycoon, said, “it really tastes like the Xu family, but it feels better than what the Xu family did in those years. We, the natives of S City, who are a little older, didn’t know the ‘secret six dish’ of the Xu family restaurant in those years? At that time, we didn’t know how long to line up for a bite. What a pity…”

“Why was it in those days? Aren’t there many chain stores in the Xu family now? I don’t remember eating them.” A few younger businessmen nearby could not help joining the conversation.

The leader who spoke before smiled and shook his head with his glass, “Because the Xu family can’t do it now. Maybe it’s a change of the chef they can’t do it any more. Although there are many branches of the Xu family now, their business is getting worse and worse. Recently, I heard from several friends of the tax bureau that the Xu family owes a lot of taxes and has closed several branches at once. It’s estimated that if they can’t recruit good cooks , they will really close down.”

“Ha… Wouldn’t it be possible to eat ‘secret six dish’ in my brother’s restaurant instead of going to the expensive Xu restaurant in the future?”

Qu Cheng opened his mouth properly, which attracted a group of people to smile and nod, “well said, for the sake of the secret six dish I have been thinking about for many years, I have decided on this place. Old Qu, you should tell the boss to leave us a golden position, ha ha ha…”

After pushing the cup for another one and laughing and scolding in the wine market, Qu Cheng easily brought in several “heavyweight” big customers, and also cleverly told these big people who knew the pulse of the news that the long lost secret six dish were only available in Xu’s store.

On the first day of opening, Xu Cinian ushered in a good start, with a turnover of more than 10,000 yuan on the first day.

“The Zhao family’s private dishes made the lost skill of the Xu family” is the blessing of Qu Cheng’s several political and business friends. For a time, they spread like wildfire in the upper class circle. Taking advantage of this great prospect, Xu Cinian put advertisements on the front pages of major newspapers and magazines, actively participated in various group purchases, and attracted a large group of young customers.

Nowadays, everything is packed. Xu Cinian not only makes great efforts in the taste of dishes, but also studies new dishes in the kitchen with Uncle Zhong every day, and achieves the best in plate loading and recipes.

A simple red oil manuscript is put in an amber translucent vessel with a piece of green bamboo leaves. It is pleasing to the eye, but it costs only ten yuan. A piece of Hibiscus cream crisp, made into a cute ball shape, brushed with a layer of duck oil, coupled with a small stainless steel fork in the shape of a meow claw, stabbed the girl’s heart. Four of them were only eight yuan, and they couldn’t even buy an ice cream ball with it.

High-end quality and taste, cheap price, in a short period of time to the restaurant to accumulate a large number of diners, many people are rushing to his snacks, the result of eating can not stop their mouth, simply even the meal is also solved together, crowded on the same street must X customers, X X business less than half.

“Zhao Family Banquet” six dishes is the signature, almost every table must be ordered, good word of mouth passed on to ten hundred, attracting many people to come to eat, of course, including those who have eaten the Xu family’s “secret six dish” in that year.

The reason why Xu Cinian originally opened the store here is because when the Xu family first started, it was to open a food stall in this neighborhood, and many old residents around are the fixed customers of the Xu family, and when the Xu family is really rich and has become synonymous with the high-end catering industry, these loyal old customers can’t afford to spend.

Xu Cinian is precisely to see these potential customers, deliberately make a comeback in the place where the Xu family made a fortune, effortlessly, and snatched away more than half of the Xu family’s customer source, which is equivalent to relying on the Xu family’s big tree to give himself a free advertisement.

Luo Xiaomao once said even more jokingly, “Your practice is simply clearly ‘I want you to think of me Xu Cinian when you mention the secret six moves, which is really stable and fierce!”

Xu Cinian laughed and hit him on the head, continue to be busy looking down at the study of new dishes, recently the business of the restaurant is getting better and better, he took the opportunity to take Qingyuan’s houttuynia cordata to sell, at first did not dare to take it out directly to sell, just give a variety of soups as side dishes, and then many people ate it and said that it would be good in a few days, and they ran to the store to ask what these grasses were.

So Xu Cinian officially added his carefully cultivated houttuynia to the menu and took the opportunity to launch a medicinal food package, but at first the response was mediocre, far less than the red fire of Zhao family banquets and snack sales, Qu cheng’s clever move helped him think of a brilliant idea.

On the same day, a huge rolling advertisement was hung on the official website of Hao Ting, announcing that anyone who consumed medicinal food sets of dishes in the Zhao family private restaurant for 300 yuan could come to Haoting with an invoice to receive a 50 yuan voucher, which could be used in any of its bars, KTV, and entertainment clubs.

Xu Cinian saw this news and almost vomited blood, scratched his head and scolded him for “the old masters of the losers of the troubled bags”, which led to the little guy to follow suit, drumming up the fat cheeks, chasing after Qu Cheng’s ass, soft and gentle shouting “Chengcheng Saobao (peach-like bun), Chengcheng loser”, the angry Qu Cheng sandwiched him in the arm socket, and give the small ass some light punch.

As a result, this method really worked, and on the same day, Xu Cinian’s restaurant almost squeezed his head, and those who came to the restaurant and people with the idea of exchanging vouchers mixed together, blocked the gate and lined up again, and the turnover of the restaurant quadrupled.

In the evening, When Xu Cinian counted the money, he was frightened, and the little guy sat in a pile of RENMINBI and giggled, and twisted with Luo Xiaomao, singing in his mouth, “I made money and made money, I don’t know how to spend, I have a big brother in my left hand, a phone in my right hand!”

*(The renminbi is the official currency in China, where the renminbi acts as the official currency recognized by the state. While the yuan is a system of units of account or currency units in China. In China, units of account and currency use two different terms.)

Just when everything is thriving, some things can’t be hidden after all.

The business of the restaurant is getting better and better, Xu Cinian rarely takes the initiative to cook, this time there is a little girl who took the initiative to ask to eat the Zhao family banquet, he only put on an apron into the back kitchen, and as a result, when he just heated the oil pot to prepare the ingredients, Luo Xiaomao ran in with a panicked face.

“Quit, don’t do it!” Hurry up and hide!”

“What’s wrong?” Xu Cinian looked back and asked in confusion.

“Your dad’s coming to the door!” He’s already at the door! ”

With a “bang”, the iron pot came out of his hand and smashed on the stove to splash a layer of mars.

Xu Cinian held down his trembling hand, and his face instantly cooled down, “You said Xu Jianguo?”

Luo Xiaomao nodded vigorously, with an anxious face, “Who else!” It would be hilarious if he saw you alive!”
