Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

No matter how delicious the food is, if you eat meat every meal, you will be overwhelmed after eating it a few times.

But Xujia Puzi Restaurant is different. Because it is Chinese food, there are many types of dishes, so you can always find what you like.

Xu Wanning returned to the front desk, took out a pen and paper, and drew the patterns of roasted chicken and fried chicken in the form of simple drawings. She also specifically stated that the No. 2 store had new dishes today, including goose stewed in an iron pot and roasted chicken. and fried chicken.

Thirty-five servings of goose stewed in an iron pot, including a whole freshly killed goose, and two-faced pancakes the size of ten adult men's fists. Two vegetarian cold dishes and a pot of sour plum soup are also given for free.

Roast chicken costs five yuan a piece, and fried chicken costs seven yuan a piece. Xu Wanning clearly marked the price, wrote the price on paper, and asked the waiter to post it on the door.

As soon as the waiter posted the notice, Boss Gu came with his whole family.

"Boss Xu, bring me a pot of stewed goose in an iron pot today, plus two roast chickens and two fried chickens. The roast chicken and fried chicken I brought home yesterday were all eaten by my children. No, today I brought them here specially so that they can eat enough at one time!"

Boss Gu left early yesterday and didn't smell the goose stewed in the iron pot.

But he is a regular customer of Xujiapu Restaurant, and he has always been full of confidence in the new dishes developed by Xu Wanning.

Soon, goose stewed in an iron pot and roasted and fried chicken were served on the table. Xu Wanning also gave two extra stir-fry dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, for free, and also cooked a pot of ginger cola for several children.

The children were not interested in the goose stewed in the iron pot. When they saw the roasted and fried chicken on the table, they all stretched out their hands to grab it and ate it with great joy.

Boss Gu chose the large table near the door. The door of the No. 2 store was open. Standing outside, he could have an unobstructed view of what was going on inside.

People passing by saw the children eating so happily and contentedly, and then looked at the prices on the notice list. If they were within the acceptable range, they also entered the store and started ordering fried chicken and roasted chicken.

In the evening, after the last table of customers left, the No. 2 store also closed.

After the waiters finished cleaning the store, Xu Huajing asked them all to go home and rest.

Only Xu Huajing and several sisters-in-law of the Xu family were left in the huge store.

"I just went through the ledger roughly, Aning, I can't believe that we actually sold more than 2,000 yuan today!"

More than 2,000 yuan was only half of the previous sales of roasted whole lamb and roasted suckling pig, but it was fully twice as high as the daily turnover of only 1,000 yuan a few days ago.

And Xu Huajing's prediction was correct. There were only ten tables of customers who came into the store today to eat roasted lamb and roasted suckling pig. One roasted whole lamb and one roasted suckling pig were not sold out, and there were quite a few left. Woolen cloth.

However, hundreds of roast chickens were sold today, as were sixty or seventy fried chickens, and most importantly, more than thirty portions were sold.

After being happy, Xu Huajing sighed and said: "Aning, I just went to the backyard to take a look. There are still more than half of the roasted whole lamb and roasted suckling pig that were put on the stove today. You keep saying, we You can’t sell overnight vegetables, but you can bake fresh ones every day and have leftovers every day. Not only does the cost increase, but it’s also wasteful. Do you have any good ideas to solve this problem?”

If there is leftover once in a while, you can let each family member take some home to eat, but what if there is leftover every day? It can't be open only on Saturdays and Sundays, right?

No, even if it is only open on Saturdays and Sundays, one roasted whole lamb cannot be sold out.

Xu Wanning is also thinking about this issue.

She knew that after entering this week, the sales of roasted whole lamb and roasted suckling pig would drop, but she did not expect such a steep decline.

If you have a freezer, it's okay. You can divide the freshly killed mutton into several parts, roast some of them, and freeze the rest in the freezer.

Yes, the freezer!

Although there are no freezers on the market now, the principle is not difficult and the required materials can be found, but the cost is relatively high.

"Auntie, we can buy two freezers, divide the freshly killed sheep and pigs into several parts, and only take out a part to roast every day, and freeze the rest in the refrigerator, and then take them out to defrost when roasting the next day. , the taste is not much different from fresh ones.”

"But there is no one selling freezers." Xu Huajing frowned: "Only when the supply and marketing cooperative sells popsicles every summer, the freezers will be open for a few months. Where can ordinary people buy freezers?"

"Yangcheng."

Xu Wanning called Boss Yang that night.

As soon as the call was connected, Boss Yang asked: "What is sold out? Clothes or accessories? I will go to the market to buy it for you tomorrow. But let's make an agreement first. Now you don't want to give me more money. You want If you really feel sorry for yourself, just send me some more of the meat sauce you made, it’s delicious, so delicious!”

"No problem, I can send you more meat sauce, but I need your help with something."

"Say it. As long as I can do it, I will definitely do it for you."

Xu Wanning told Boss Yang about the problem she encountered, "Although the climate in Beijing is not hotter than that in Yangcheng, it is already mid-March, and meat can easily spoil, so we must find a way to solve it."

Xu Wanning pays special attention to food safety issues. Spoiled food must not be given to customers under any circumstances.

However, if there is no freezer, No. 2 store will have to give up the roasted whole lamb and roasted suckling pig.

Boss Yang was stunned for a long time on the other end of the phone, and then asked: "Beijing is the capital. Don't you think there are no freezers for sale in Beijing?"

"It's true that Beijing is the capital, but people in Beijing don't have high demand for freezers, so it's normal that there are currently no products for sale on the market."

"This is easy to handle. I know where it is sold. I will buy it for you tomorrow. If I buy it, I will ship it to you by train. But you have to make it clear in advance. The freezer is large and heavy, so the shipping fee is not estimated to be high. Cheap."

"I know this. I can remit the money to you first."

"That's not necessary. When your money is transferred, the freezer will already be in your hands. If you really want to thank me, give me more meat sauce and the dried rabbit. I want it too, but I don't eat spicy food. , I don’t want spicy food.”

"No problem. By the way, Boss Yang, let's talk about shoes. Last time you sent me more than 200 pairs of travel shoes, I have already sold more than 100 pairs before they were officially launched."

Boss Yang didn't quite understand Xu Wanning's words.

More than a hundred pairs have been sold before it officially goes on sale?

"I haven't had time to put it on the shelves in my boutique, but my mother and aunts have already sold a lot of them for me."

Before, the eldest aunt and the second aunt Xu's mother each took a few pairs to sell in their units, and the results were very good.
