Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

Dongzi pondered for a moment and expressed his concerns.

"Sister-in-law, I can foresee how popular our business will be after this buffet lunch is launched. I guess most people would rather spend a few cents to buy and eat. After all, the rice can be refilled indefinitely, which saves a lot of trouble. .”

"However, our restaurant only has such a big space. If too many people come and occupy the tables and chairs, wouldn't other high-spending customers have no place to sit? Also, at meal time, our restaurant is very busy, so we really have no time to sit. There is no manpower to do this. And, who will cook the food?"

Dongzi's worries are reasonable, but for Xu Wanning, these problems are not a problem at all.

"First of all, you go to a carpenter to build a few tables and benches so that guests who have a buffet lunch can sit outside and eat. Those who come to the buffet lunch either want to save time and don't want to cook, or they want to fill their stomachs quickly. Those who continue to work, in short, their purpose is to eat, so it doesn’t make much difference where they sit to eat.”

Xu Wanning looked at the open space outside the restaurant, "There is such a large open space outside our restaurant. It would be a waste not to use it. When the time comes, you can find someone to build a shed outside that can protect you from wind and rain, and put the tables and lunch stalls there. Under the shed. When it gets cold in winter, just put another brazier."

Dongzi nodded hurriedly and responded: "This method is ok, and it greatly solves the problem of having no place to sit while eating."

"Secondly, don't we need to recruit new waiters? You can recruit a few more people and let the old employees of Xuehua conduct a systematic training for them to ensure that they can take up their posts quickly. As for those in charge of the buffet lunch stall, let a few old employees They come in turns, and each person will be given a one-dollar subsidy per day. You and Cuifen can just look at the schedule and arrange it."

"Last question, of course Chef Yang and Chef Zhang prepared the meals. I asked Cuifen, the restaurant is not very busy from [-] to [-] o'clock every day, so it is not a problem for them to prepare a few big pot dishes. . Similarly, there is a one-dollar subsidy per day. It depends on whether they both earn this dollar together or take turns. You can make arrangements for this."

Xu Wanning solved all Dongzi's doubts in a few words. He hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, I think the buffet lunch is very feasible. In this way, when the restaurant closes, I will find a carpenter to work and strive for Set up our lunch buffet soon!"

Dongzi could already predict how popular the lunch buffet would be.

Although my sister-in-law said small profits but quick turnover, you can’t earn much from one meal, but if you add up a little, you can make more money by selling a few more portions, right?

Dongzi's biggest goal is to make money for his sister-in-law. The more he earns, the better!

Tang Ting and others went downstairs after dinner and saw Xu Wanning and Dongzi chatting animatedly, so they stood aside and waited.

Dongzi saw it and said to Xu Wanning: "Sister-in-law, your friend is here. You guys chat first while I go to discuss it with Cuifen."

"Have you finished eating?"

"I've finished eating." Tang Ting touched her round belly: "When I come back to your place for dinner, you have to arrange so many dishes. The three of us with small stomachs have all been enlarged."

"Listening to what you said, you are very dissatisfied with me. Then you won't come next time?"

"No!" Tang Ting said angrily: "We have agreed that the four of us will act together. If you only invite them two, what will happen if you don't invite me? I don't agree."

"Then you still say that I spoiled your appetite."

"I don't want to express that you have arranged too many dishes. I just want to tell you that you don't have to spend so much money next time."

Xu Wanning smiled helplessly and said: "It's getting late. You should go back to school quickly, lest it's too late and the road is unsafe. We'll see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

After Tang Ting and the others left, Xu Wanning continued to discuss the details of the buffet lunch with Dongzi. Cuifen gave some quite constructive suggestions from time to time. Before nightfall, the three of them finally finalized the matter.

"You and Cuifen are still responsible for the buffet lunch. I will give you [-]% of the net profit as a dividend."

"Sister-in-law, this is not okay!" Cuifen rejected Xu Wanning's proposal without thinking: "Sister-in-law, you are responsible for making the tables, chairs and benches. You are also responsible for the wages and benefits of the waiters and chefs. Even the cost is provided by you, sister-in-law. How can Dongzi He De and I share the dividends?"

"Cuifen is right! Sister-in-law, the buffet lunch is also part of our Xujiapu restaurant. Since you have hired Cuifen and I to be the people in charge of the restaurant, we must manage the restaurant well for you. How can we What’s the point of getting dividends again? This won’t work, absolutely not!”

Xu Wanning tried to persuade her a few more times, but no matter what she said, Dongzi and Cuifen were unwilling to accept it.

Helpless, Xu Wanning had no choice but to compromise.

"Okay, I won't give you any dividends. Just keep an eye on your hard work, and I'll give you a subsidy when the time comes." For fear that the couple would refuse again, Xu Wanning quickly added: "It's the same subsidy as the waiters and chefs."

Hearing this, Dongzi and Cuifen accepted Xu Wanning's kindness.

As soon as this topic ended, Xu Wanning saw Lin An entering the restaurant.

"Why are you here?" Xu Wanning asked in surprise.

She didn't seem to tell Lin An that she would come to the restaurant today.

Dongzi silently raised his right hand: "I informed Brother Anzi. I was thinking about my sister-in-law discussing the buffet lunch with us, and I guessed that I would be busy until very late, so I called my aunt. Brother Anzi picked it up, so he came to pick you up."

Lin An came in, happened to hear Dongxi's words, and asked in surprise: "Lunch buffet? What is a lunch buffet?"

Dongzi quickly told Lin An what they had just discussed. At the end, he said proudly: "Brother Anzi, isn't my sister-in-law very powerful? She has come up with such a brilliant idea."

"With the reputation of our Xujiapu Restaurant, as long as the food tastes good and the portions are sufficient, the buffet lunch business will definitely be good!"

Lin An smiled and said: "It is indeed a great idea."

"No! My sister-in-law is very smart!"

Lin An: ...

How long has it been since then? How come Dongzi, like Lin Quan, has become Xu Wanning's fool?

Of course, his wife is indeed very powerful.

"Then you guys are busy first, Aning and I will go back first."

"Sister-in-law, please go slower on the road." Dongzi and Cuifen sent them to the door of the restaurant.

After leaving the restaurant, Lin An held Xu Wanning's hand and walked to the entrance of the alley to pick up the bicycle.

Bicycles are rare these days, so there is a special parking area, and you pay a five-cent care fee to prevent the bicycle from being stolen.
