Chapter 330 Xia Lijuan’s eyes widened
At this time, Ning Haiping, who rented Songbo's house, felt very uncomfortable.
He originally thought that he had studied at New Oriental for more than half a year and worked in the kitchen of a hotel for more than a year. His skills and experience were absolutely fine. If he opened a fast food restaurant here and copied He Wenlin's model, the business would definitely get better. .
I didn’t expect the opening to be so unsuccessful!
Even if a set of coupons is not sold, no one even made reservations for fast food! No one ordered the drinks!
"I've lost all my energy," Ning's mother sighed, "Why did other people's business start up all of a sudden? It seems quite simple, but when it's my turn to do it, it's difficult."
"If that doesn't work, let's make some and set up a stall. That girl also started setting up a stall." Ning Haiping's wife Zhu Qingmei suggested, "We can't just quit as soon as the house is rented and the things are bought. Well, it would be shameless to spread the word."
All her relatives and friends knew that she was going to open a fast food restaurant, but her performance was zero on the first day. It was embarrassing to spread the word!
Ning's mother suggested: "Let's make some tonight. If it doesn't work, we won't make any money in the next three days. Let's make some and sell them half at the factory gate, half as free. Let them know about our taste and then return to normal prices."
Ning Haiping frowned and thought for a while: "Okay, let's go tonight!"
……
In the evening, Ning Haiping made three dishes: green pepper shredded pork, eggplant and beans, and hot and sour chicken offal. Two dishes were included in a box lunch. A total of forty portions were prepared and sold for two yuan each.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Ning's mother and Zhu Qingmei went to the entrances of the Bosi Factory and Hongda Factory respectively.
The two of them were too embarrassed to shout, so each of them brought a loudspeaker to play in a loop: "A delicious lunch box costs two yuan a box. A delicious lunch box costs two yuan a box..."
This was the peak time for getting off work. When the workers heard the sound, they walked over one after another...
"Is the lunch box only two yuan a piece?"
When Ning's mother saw someone coming to ask, she immediately replied: "Yes, it costs two yuan a portion. We sold it at a loss of two yuan, just to let everyone try our craftsmanship. Buy one and try it. Two yuan." The money is very cost-effective, and you can change your taste once in a while.”
"What kind of food do you have?"
"The ones here are shredded green pepper pork and hot and sour chicken offal. The ones here are shredded green pepper pork and eggplant and beans. Although there are only two dishes in a box, they are very generous."
"Okay, bring me some green pepper shredded pork and chicken offal."
"I'll have one too..."
……
Ning's mother's small stall was quickly surrounded by people.
Zhu Qingmei was in the same situation, surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside.
When Peng Wei came out from get off work and saw the situation, he immediately ran to the fast food restaurant and told He Wenlin and others: "We are selling lunch boxes at the entrance of our factory for two yuan a piece."
Xia Lijuan also hurriedly came to report: "We also have them at the entrance of the factory. The woman who came to the factory today to place orders and sell coupons sold them for two yuan a piece, and many people bought them."
"What?" Dad He said in shock, "Two yuan!!! They sold it at a loss."
Lin Fei said: "No wonder we have fewer people coming here for supper tonight."
Now every day from 15:00 to 10:30, He, Dad and Lin Fei basically have no time to stop during these 40 minutes. They sell about 70 portions of fried rice noodles in one night.
But there were obviously fewer people today.
"It's so cheap, someone will try it." He Wenlin said, "Let's buy one and try it."
He Wenlin and the chefs in the store must taste every competitor's product. This is already a tacit rule among everyone.
He Wenlin gave Xia Lijuan four yuan and asked her to buy two copies.
"If it's sold out, you can see which customer has it, buy it from him, and then invite him to our store for late-night snacks and drinks."
"Okay." Xia Lijuan readily took the money and ran out.
It didn't take long to bring back two snacks for He Wenlin. Ning Mu and Zhu Qingmei's goods had indeed been sold out. She bought them from two familiar customers.
"Brother Fei, let's make stir-fried noodles for these two fellow villagers." After He Wenlin finished speaking, she got a box of orange juice for each of them.
The fellow said with a smile: "You open your own shop, but you still buy other people's fast food."
"Then I have to try other people's products and compare them."
The fellow said with a smile: "You are called knowing yourself and your enemy, and you will be victorious in every battle."
He Wenlin smiled: "You can also say that."
They specially made it today and sold it at a low price at the factory gate to open up the market. They must be making their own specialties.
He Wenlin and Dad He tasted it. Their dishes were not as strong as those made by He Wenlin's fast food restaurant. Dad He didn't like them very much because he felt that the fried pork with green pepper was not salty and spicy enough, and the spicy and sour chicken mixed with chicken was not spicy enough.
He Wenlin thinks the taste is okay, especially the eggplant and beans, which is very good.
For people in Hunan, Gansu and Sichuan, they prefer the stronger flavor of fried pork with chili pepper and stir-fried pork with green pepper. These two dishes are different.
His shredded green pepper pork tastes very similar to the shredded green pepper pork that He Wenlin had in her previous life at a Shengcheng snack bar on the street. It's not that it's not delicious, but people from areas with strong flavors don't like it very much.
Speaking of Shengcheng snacks, He Wenlin remembers that they are all over the streets in Shaocheng, but it seems that they are not available now, and they are not available in Shaxian County either.
"It's not as delicious as yours, so you don't have to worry." Xia Lijuan also tasted it and said.
He Wenlin: "That's not necessarily true. Some customers will be lost to some extent. However, we opened early and have a certain customer base. Moreover, the house next door to us will be renovated next month and we can move in around the summer vacation. It is quite Since we have a clean and spacious physical store, we have an advantage over them."
In fact, as long as the other party doesn't cook Sichuan or Hunan cuisine, He Wenlin doesn't need to worry too much.
Because the employees at Bossi and Hongda are relatively few from the same province, and most of them are from Hunan, Jiangxi, and Sichuan, and they all have heavy tastes.
He Wenlin continued: "But we can't take it lightly. There are many smart people in this world, so be careful of being counterattacked! We still have to do monthly feedback activities. We would rather have lower profits, but we must also ensure the quality of the dishes and not damage our reputation."
He Wenlin repeatedly warned that the two most common mistakes in catering are hygiene and ingredients.
I have been reborn, and there are plenty of opportunities to make money. There is really no need to make that dirty money.
Xia Lijuan listened to He Wenlin's words and secretly admired her. She felt that this sister was worthy of having made so much money at a young age. She thought more and further than others, and she also talked in one way.
Not long after, Peng Liang also came.
The uncle and nephew of the Peng family gave He Wenlin today's voucher money for Hongda and the shirt factory. The shirt factory sold a total of 77 sets and Hongda sold 86 sets, totaling 27,710 yuan.
He Wenlin checked the accounts with them, and after counting the money and coupons in person, she asked them to take away the coupons.
Today, Bosi Clothing Factory sold 63 sets of coupons, so the total money spent on selling coupons today was more than 30,000 yuan.
Once the money is credited, you don’t have to worry about it for the next month.
Seeing so much money, Xia Lijuan's eyes went straight!
She said with great envy: "Linlin, you are so amazing, you can make so much money in one day."
"This is sales, not profit, and this time we sold it at a 82% discount. We didn't make any money at the 82% discount, and we won't make any money for a long time in the future."
"Huh? It sounds like doing business is risky."
"That's for sure. It turns out that our exclusive business is good and the profits are big. But when the business gets better, others will be jealous and grab the business." He Wenlin sighed, "The profit margin this year is not as big as last year. It just depends on the decoration of the store. After you get better, can you feel better?"
12% off, He Wenlin will only sell it this time, move to her new store, no matter what, it will not be 12% off.
