Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

But there was nothing to eat except meat.

If you have rural relatives at home, you might be able to mix it in with some dried vegetables, or stew pork with vermicelli.

But the cost of dried vegetables is not cheap.

Dried vegetables themselves are not valuable, but if you always ask rural relatives to send you dried vegetables, you will inevitably have to buy them on credit from other places. In the end, you will lose a lot of money.

Besides, how can dried vegetables be as delicious as fresh ones?

The reason why cucumbers and tomatoes are sold at such high prices is that they can not only be eaten as vegetables, but also as fruits.

Especially in the cold winter, eating a bite of juicy and sweet tomatoes or a refreshing cucumber is so wonderful.

Teacher Jin's ideas are still stuck in a few years ago, but Xu Wanning knows that as the economy develops better and better and people earn more money, more people will pay attention to the quality of life.

Moreover, this year is the first year of successful greenhouse cultivation, which is the first in Beijing and even in the whole of China.

Those who can buy and are willing to buy fresh vegetables will become the envy of their friends and relatives.

Many people will spend money to buy fresh vegetables just to gain the envious looks of others.

Xu Wanning accompanied Teacher Jin for three days. After the business got on track, she no longer cared about the sale of vegetables.

After all, the demand is greater than the market, and there are customers who come to buy every day. Teacher Jin and others don’t need to worry about the flow of customers. They just need to weigh and calculate the money.

Starting from the fourth day, Xu Wanning returned to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

After December, soybean planting was temporarily put on hold because the weather was too cold and completely unsuitable for soybean growth. Even in the petri dishes in the laboratory, the data obtained were not completely practical.

However, there were still some final data that needed to be recorded, so Xu Wanning stayed in the laboratory with Senior Brother Wang for another two days to finish all the final tasks. She could be considered to have a complete vacation.

Of course, she was the only one on holiday.

Although Brother Wang is theoretically on vacation, he has devoted his heart to the people in the laboratory. What he needs is not a vacation, but challenging research.

As for grassroots employees like Chen Qiaoqiao, they still need to stick to their posts and can only take a holiday when the Academy of Agricultural Sciences takes a unified holiday.

In the afternoon, Xu Wanning went to the bookstore just before getting off work.

The Reader's Bookstore is doing very well because there are primary and middle schools nearby, and there are many people living nearby. In addition, many of the learning supplies are very attractive to students, so the Reader's Bookstore's daily turnover is only a little bit.

Excluding the rent and other costs, the Reader's Bookstore has been open for more than two months and has already earned back 80% of its revenue.

The Reader's Bookstore will not be open during the Chinese New Year, but it will be officially profitable in one or two months at the beginning of the new year.

Xu Wanning doesn't care how much money the Readers' Bookstore can make, but Chen Qiaoqiao also has a share in this bookstore. To be more precise, this is one of the reasons why Chen Qiaoqiao can settle down and make a living, so Xu Wanning still hopes that the bookstore's business can be better.

Over the next two days, Xu Wanning accompanied her four children to play in several scenic spots around Beijing. On December 29th, she started a new round of busyness.

Because a branch of Xujiapuizi Restaurant opened.

The person in charge of the branch was found by Dongzi. He personally trained him for a period of time and made sure that he was able to handle the work independently before letting him manage the branch.

The branch has a good geographical location, with four large factories nearby, with a total of tens of thousands of employees.

Dongzi had done a calculation for Xu Wanning before. Even if every worker had a meal in a restaurant once every two months on average, with tens of thousands of people, it would take one or two years to make up the meal.

As long as the quality of Xujiapuizi Restaurant is guaranteed and the prices are not expensive, business will definitely be good.

Xu Wanning looked at the menu of the branch restaurant. It was basically the same as the main restaurant, but the price of each dish had increased by between 20 and 50 cents.

"There are factories all around, and the people who come to eat at our branch are basically factory workers. These people do manual labor, consume a lot of energy, and naturally eat a lot. Although we can have unlimited refills of rice, the rice doesn't taste good after the dishes are finished, so I thought that the unit price of the dishes could be increased, but the portions could also be increased accordingly."

The meat supplier for Xujiapuizi Restaurant is Xu Wanning’s farm, so the meat goes into his left pocket and into his right pocket.

As the cost is reduced, people will naturally be willing to give larger portions.

Moreover, Xu Wanning’s main point is mutual benefit. She makes money, but she also wants customers to feel that they are getting real benefits. This is not a one-time deal. Will she never do business again after doing it this time?

"There is no problem with the menu pricing, just follow your settings. Also, since we are opening a new store, we must hold activities to attract customers."

Dongzi got excited when he mentioned this. He rubbed his hands and asked, "Sister-in-law, is it the same as the previous event at the main store?"

Xu Wanning shook her head. "The main store has already done an event once, so it won't be new if we do it again. You also said that the original intention of opening this store here is because there are several large factories nearby. The workers pay attention to the cost-effectiveness of their meals, and the taste comes second. Those fancy means are not applicable, let's try something more practical."

"Sister-in-law, what do you think we should do?"

"My idea is to divide it into three parts. The first part is that in the first three days of the new store opening, all dishes will be 15% off. The second part is the recharge activity. For example, if you recharge 100 yuan, you will get 10 yuan for free. That means if you have 110 yuan in your account, it can be used in both stores."

"The third one is the lucky draw. For every 100 yuan you top up, you can draw a prize. For 200 yuan, you can draw twice, and so on. As for the prizes, we can also make them bigger."

“The prizes are divided into special prize, first prize, second prize, third prize and participation prize.”

"The special prize is a bicycle, and the first prize is a lifetime 95% discount at all stores under the Xujiapu Restaurant. As long as Xujiapu Restaurant remains open, this discount card can be used forever. The second prize is ten meal coupons, which can be used for all dishes sold at Xujiapu Restaurant."

"The third prize is five free meal coupons, and the participation prize is three free meal coupons."

Except for the special prize which is slightly bigger, the rest of the prizes are nothing to the restaurant.

But this is only for the restaurant and its owner Xu Wanning. For consumers, even if it is just a participation prize, it is a great bargain.

The most expensive dishes at Xujiapu Restaurant now cost five yuan and eighty cents each. Participation prizes include three free meal coupons, which is equivalent to three meals!
