Great Imperial Merchant

In early June, Ear Grain is approaching.

Quzhou and other places are continuously rainy, and the rainy season is approaching quietly.

Relying on Yang Zhongyuan's cooking skills and Cheng Weizhe's front-end ability, Fumanlou's business is getting better and better. After ten days of opening, the business has gradually stabilized.

Nowadays, for lunch and dinner every day, most of the halls can be fully seated, and the private rooms on the second floor can also be filled with [-]% to [-]% of the seats every day.

Because of the continuous rain, the number of pedestrians on Baozhu Street decreased, but it did not affect the business of Fumanlou.

Fumanlou is a newly opened restaurant. Many tourists who just came to Quzhou do not recognize it. Most of them come for the old reputation. Even if they pass by Fumanlou, they may not necessarily walk in and watch it .

In the first month, most of Fumanlou's businesses were local businesses.

People in Quzhou have picky mouths, and some old restaurants are tired of eating, so it's good to change to the newly opened Da Da Ya Ji.It didn’t turn out as expected. The newly opened restaurant is good, delicious and cheap, and the service is good. No matter how you eat, you will be satisfied.

However, during the rainy season, the locals are not happy to go out. On the contrary, the tourists from afar are in high spirits. Taking advantage of the few people, they have a good taste of the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River.

At this time, I have to say that the location of the shop they bought at that time is good. Many tourists who come here like to live on Baozhu Street. Yue'an Inn naturally became the first choice, and the right side of their shop is Chu's cloth shop , There are also a lot of guests who come here admiringly.

Because of the rain, tourists didn't bother to look around for those names, so they went directly into Fumanlou to make a living.

But they came in with the intention of being barely full, but they didn't realize that this restaurant was delicious. As soon as they entered the door, they were served with hot Quhong. Dry your shoes.

Although the weather wasn't cold, it was unpleasant to be wet all over. The store's move made the customers who came in to save trouble even more satisfied.

When the exquisite dishes are served, the delicious smell immediately makes them swallow their saliva. If they are lucky enough to order bamboo shoots and chicken soup, after a mouthful of warm thick soup, the moisture in their bodies will be forced away immediately.

There were a few tables of guests staying at the Yue'an Inn, and they felt very pleasant after lunch, so they asked Cheng Weizhe, "Boss, do you sell breakfast here?"

The branch of Yuean Inn on Baozhu Street is relatively small, so there is no back kitchen at all. Even if a side room is opened in the backyard, when the guests are hungry, they can serve some porridge and water. Although it can satisfy their hunger, the taste is really not very good good.

Yang Zhongyuan and Cheng Weizhe had inquired about this from the very beginning. Before the opening, they went to Yue'an Inn to talk about food delivery many times, but the shopkeeper of Yue'an's branch is a very careful person. Fumanlou has not yet opened. He doesn't know how the craftsmanship here is. Secondly, Yue'an is a century-old shop. Even if the food in the branch here is not very good, but as an inn, their service is the best.

The wing rooms are always clean, the sheets and quilts are changed every day, and the waiter in the building is even more respectful and clever. Even if the food is not very good, the most indispensable thing on Baozhu Street is food, and this small shortcoming is covered up past.

But when it comes to the rainy season in early summer and the snowstorm in winter, Yue'an is a bit inconvenient.

The food in the inn is not very tasty, and eating out is really a bit troublesome. Regular customers who travel frequently to and from Quzhou often complain about this.

The shopkeeper of the branch store is determined to improve, and wants to recruit some capable second chefs to take charge of the cooking, even if they can only cook porridge.However, due to limited conditions, if there is cooking in the backyard, the guest room will smell of oily smoke. No matter how well the porridge is cooked, it is useless.

Just when the branch manager started to worry about this year's rainy season, Cheng Weizhe and Yang Zhongyuan's visits gave him a new choice.

At first he was cautious and did not agree to this matter.Later, seeing that Fumanlou's business was getting better and better, and the customers who came and went praised his delicious food, the shopkeeper of the branch couldn't sit still, so he ran over to have a meal in person, and he immediately paid attention.

By the beginning of June, the reply letter from the headquarters had just arrived in Quzhou, and he couldn't wait to read it.

However, Cheng Weizhe didn't know everything that happened in Yue'an Inn. He just listened to the guests' questions and replied with a smile: "Guest officer, I'm really sorry, our family doesn't have breakfast yet. But there will be one soon." , if you think highly of my family, how about this, tomorrow morning we will arrange for the chef to make crock porridge and steamed stuffed buns alone, as long as you call out to Yue An, we will send the waiter over there, okay?"

Reach out and don't hit the smiling face. Since the guests value them, they must show sincerity.

Even if people disagree in the end, that is the customer's own business, but Fumanlou wants to do everything to the best of their ability.

Sure enough, the guest's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this: "Boss, your attitude is really nice. Do you have a list for breakfast? If I have one, I will fill it in first, and Chenshi will send it to me tomorrow morning, how about it?"

Seeing that he seems to have ordered the breakfast for the morning, the guests at the other tables of Yue'an Inn also said that they would follow suit.They are all here to play, and they don't have to get up early in the morning. It's always rainy outside, and it's not too comfortable to be able to eat a mouthful of delicious hot porridge in their own guest room.

It's a pity that Yue'an Inn's porridge is not good, and eating out is really troublesome. Now Fumanlou seems to be able to solve such a big problem for them, which is like a timely help.

Seeing that so many diners present made demands, Cheng Weizhe had a hard time.

It would be better to send the family away, but if they all want to send them away, I am afraid that the Yue'an Inn will not be very happy.

Since Yue'an Hotel didn't agree with them to come and deliver food at the beginning, now they can't do it so blatantly. Cheng Weizhe quickly sorted out the idea, but said: "Guys, at first the guest officer said that he would deliver food. If Only their family, we can give it away. But if everyone wants to give it away, it will disrupt the order of Yue'an Inn. Since we opened the store, Yue'an Inn has always cared for us, but now we can't give it to others. Sorry for the trouble. How about this, we will still deliver this guest officer. If you still want to eat the porridge from our house, you can stand on the porch in the morning and say hello. No? When the time comes, each table will be given an extra basket of steamed stuffed buns to ensure a big filling and absolutely delicious."

Cheng Weizhe is born to do business, not only does he have a kind smile, but he is also very clear-headed, he will not get dizzy for a small benefit, and he will not be eager for quick success and quick gain, such as this If everyone benefits, no one will be dissatisfied.

In business, you must make a loss to make a profit. Just thinking about making money without losing money is a dream.

Sure enough, the guests applauded after hearing this, and even the one who said at the beginning that he wanted to deliver the meal changed his mind. He just walked a few steps and ate an extra basket of buns. It’s not too cost-effective.

Seeing that they agreed, Cheng Weizhe took a stack of paper letters directly from the counter, and there were two folded pages on top of the paper letters. Cheng Weizhe handed the paper letters to the guests who wanted breakfast, and said with a smile: "Everyone, the list is my family's current For the breakfast food that can be made, you can choose what you want to eat and write down the quantity and room number. If you want to see a sample picture, I still have a foldout, just come to me and place an order."

What he said is really level.

Although Daliang promotes official education, as long as the family is not so poor that they can sell their iron, they can barely send a child to study and read.

But there are still many people who can't understand those square words of saints throughout their lives.

Although Cheng Weizhe didn't say it clearly, judging from the album he prepared, this move was really considerate.

That's right, they used to look at pictures to select samples, not because they couldn't read, but because they wanted to see what the finished product looked like, that's all.

So, under Xiao Er's patient explanation, several tables of guests have ordered breakfast, Cheng Weizhe said with a smile: "We don't do business outside in the morning, because it's raining outside, we also know that it's inconvenient for the guests to travel, Only then did the food list be prepared in advance. But the chef and the apprentices are going to get up early to prepare breakfast, I wonder if you can prepay ten copper coins for each meal, so that I can ask the chef for favor."

Compared with what they spent on lunch, ten copper coins is really not much, and the diners present are not unreasonable people who can afford to live in Yue'an Inn, so they all nodded and agreed, and when the money was paid, Cheng Weizhe went After setting up a time for breakfast with them, I asked, "Are you going back to the inn or going out for a walk?"

Seeing that the rain was getting heavier and heavier outside, the diners didn't bother to go out, and expressed that they wanted to go back to the inn.

Cheng Weizhe immediately said: "I'll ask Xiaoer to take you back with an umbrella later, the road is slippery in the rain, everyone, please be careful."

Take a look at their service, they will send you home after eating, although it is only a few steps away, this kind of thought is rare.

The one who first said that he wanted to deliver breakfast opened his mouth and said: "Boss, your attitude is really good. Before we came, we wanted to go to those famous old shops to try, but we didn't expect it because I hid from the rain and entered your house, but tasted the treasure."

Cheng Weizhe was not angry at all when he compared himself to those time-honored brands. After hearing this, he just smiled and said: "Our shop is newly opened, so we have not yet gained a reputation. Now that you have tasted it, please help us when you get home." Say a few more good words, and if you come to Quzhou next time, please do us a favor and give us a personal honor."

The guest nodded and said yes.

Cheng Weizhe breathed a sigh of relief when all the guests had left today, and asked the boys to carefully wipe off the muddy water on the ground, boiled a pot of hot tea, and walked to the door of the kitchen.

"Xiao Yuan, are you done with your work?"

"Wait a minute, it'll be here soon."

Yang Zhongyuan's voice came from the kitchen, Cheng Weizhe heard his more energetic voice, and all the hustle and bustle in his heart returned to calm.

The two of them left their hometowns. Although these days are busy and hard, they are also happy.

The kind of indescribable happiness always surrounds them, which makes people feel satisfied all the time.
