Chapter 591 Earning and Losing ([-] Reward Plus Changes)
"I made money, I made money, I want to buy some money..."

Listening to Qin Mohan humming and chirping this filthy Internet song with a northeast dialect accent, Shen Fang couldn't help laughing, it seemed that any song with Qin Mohan's appearance could be upgraded to a higher level.

A total of nearly forty guests were greeted this morning, eighteen tables of dishes were sold, and tables were turned over twice.The total income is 15800 baht, and the average consumption per customer is about 400 yuan.Zhang Liang’s casserole fish head and spicy shrimp are well received, but Kung Pao Chicken is the most popular among customers. This dish is priced at 180 baht, and Shen Fang translated it into "Kung Pao Chicken". A must-order dish, a total of sixteen copies were sold.

"Shopkeeper Shen, don't you still think that we will still lose money now?" Qin Mohan held a calculator in one hand and said arrogantly to Shen Fang: "You seem to spend less than 5000 yuan on grocery shopping in the morning, even if you get rid of your The wine revenue was 3000 yuan, and we also had a profit of nearly 8000 yuan this morning."

"Wow, so much?" Several employees who were a bit tired and paralyzed were very excited when they heard Qin Mohan's announced profit.They are not happy for the money, but for the profits they have created with their own hands. These people have not wasted their busy morning.

Qin Mohan is also very happy. She thinks that the tourists on this island have fallen in love with Chinese food, and she has also contributed to the promotion of Chinese food. This can be fully reflected in the sales of these two days.

On the first day, the total sales revenue was 3 baht, including drinks, and the profit reached an astonishing [-] baht. On the second day, the sales exceeded [-] baht. When they returned to the dormitory at night, several people’s legs and feet were sore. On the third day , several of them rarely did morning exercises, because they had not fully recovered.

"This morning we are going to purchase 5000 yuan of ingredients, and I feel that sales may exceed [-] yuan today."

Seeing Qin Mohan's high-spirited appearance, Shen Fang didn't refute, and she couldn't listen to other people's persuasion because she was in high spirits now.

However, on the third day, reality dealt Qin Mohan a cruel blow. He prepared 5000 yuan worth of dishes, but the final sales were only around 5000 yuan.The extra fish and shrimp I bought couldn’t fit in the refrigerator, so I had to spend a lot of money to ask the local health management department for help.As a small tourist island, environmental sanitation is the most important thing. It is forbidden to dispose of spoiled food directly as garbage.

On the fourth day, the number of guests picked up slightly, and there were only about 30 people, which was far less popular than the previous two days.The income is only less than 8000 yuan. Fortunately, there are fewer ingredients prepared today, and the fish and shrimps placed in the refrigerator on the third day are still a lot of profit.

As the store manager, after finishing work on the fourth day, Qin Mohan held a staff meeting in the restaurant to analyze what caused this phenomenon in the past two days.

As the chef, Zhang Liang said to Qin Mohan: "Is it because our dishes are too monotonous? We always focus on those few dishes, and there are too few choices for customers."

Qin Mohan nodded: "It's possible, Brother Liang, please develop some new dishes. Our Huaxia diet is extensive and profound, and there are many cuisines. Let's change the recipes."

Tang Yixin followed up and said, "Manager, is our price too high?"

"It's also possible, but the price can't be changed. If it changes, old customers will have complaints." Qin Mohan thought for a while, and ordered: "We will start discounting in the store tomorrow, and tomorrow we will display the small blackboard with [-]% off."

"Okay, store manager."

Qin Mohan looked at Shen Fang who was silent at the side, and couldn't help asking: "Shopkeeper Shen, tell me, what can we do to improve the current situation?"

"I'm wondering if we have a day off tomorrow?" Shen Fang smiled: "We came to the island on the 25th, and today is five days. According to the legal working days, should we take a day off? Relax."

"No, there's no way to open a restaurant to rest." Hearing Shen Fang's answer to the wrong question, Qin Mohan couldn't help but give him a blank look: "I was asking for your opinion, I didn't ask if you want to rest."

"I'm also answering your question." Shen Fang poured her a cup of tea. The dehumidification tea given by Shen Qingyi was very popular with the girls, and now it became their daily must-have drink.

After Qin Mohan took a few sips, Shen Fang continued, "There is a reason why our business was booming in the past two days."

Hearing Shen Fang's words, the other people focused their attention on him, and Qin Mohan also put down the teacup, looking forward to his next words.

"We are going to open a Chinese restaurant on the island. There has been an announcement on the island a long time ago. Look, it was reported on the posters on the pier. That's why so many people came to join us two days ago."

Qin Mohan looked at the poster, and then said to Shen Fang: "That's not right, can't the number of people drop suddenly on the third day?"

Shen Fang asked several people: "Didn't you find that the best dish we sell is that?"

"Kung Pao Chicken!"

Yu Xiaotong answered first, and then got approval from several people.

"Yes, it is Kung Pao Chicken. This dish is not only sold well here, but also sold well in Chinese restaurants in Western countries. This has something to do with the eating habits of Westerners. They are not used to using chopsticks."

Hearing Shen Fang's words, Jin Mengjia suddenly realized: "They are used to using knives and forks, no wonder they always ask me for a spoon when we serve Kung Pao Chicken."

Qin Mohan couldn't help but frowned and said, "Then what should we do? Our purpose is to promote Chinese food, we can't just cook Kung Pao Chicken for customers, right?"

"In addition to not being used to using chopsticks, they are also somewhat repelled by the spiciness of Chinese cuisine. For example, seafood, Westerners are used to steaming or grilling. They think that the excessive use of spices is because the ingredients are not fresh, so they use spices to cover up the taste, so I seldom order this dish later on.”

Qin Mohan asked anxiously: "The casserole fish head can't be the same reason?"

Shen Fang signaled her to be calm: "First of all, we need to develop new dishes. Seafood can also be steamed or grilled. Many Western countries like sweet and sour dishes. Look, the sales of sweet and sour pork ribs have started to rise in the past two days. Yes, we can make some of this kind of dishes. I think we can try the Guobaorou in Northeast China. For their habit of using chopsticks, we can make more soy products. I saw lactone tofu for sale in the vegetable market. You can make some tofu dishes, so that they can use a spoon to taste Chinese cuisine."

Zhang Liangliang nodded: "Well, this is fine. I can make crab roe tofu, iron plate tofu, and mapo tofu. Lactone tofu can be used for these."

Qin Mohan followed suit and suggested, "Foreigners like to eat vegetables with spoons. In addition to Kung Pao Chicken, we can also have cashew nuts and shrimps, which is also convenient for them to use spoons."

"This is just one point. Everyone can brainstorm and discuss some Chinese cuisine that is suitable for Westerners' diet." Shen Fang looked at Qin Mohan and said, "I still suggested that we have a day off tomorrow, and everyone can experience this together on Elephant Island." Did you notice that there are not many locals eating in our restaurant because our dishes are not necessarily suitable for their tastes. Thai people tend to be hot and sour, or have a strong curry flavor.”

Until the end, Qin Mohan did not agree to Shen Fang's request for a vacation for all the staff.She can arrange a separate vacation, Zhang Liang and Yu Xiaotong's vacation tomorrow, let them go to the island to experience the local eating habits, and hope that when he comes back from vacation, he can come up with dishes suitable for Thai tastes.

Then Jin Mengjia and Tang Yixin can take a day off the day after tomorrow to travel, go shopping, or go diving. The program team will also arrange photographers to follow them throughout the process.After all, the Thai tourism department invited "Chinese Restaurant" to come and record the program. The main purpose is to promote the beautiful Koh Chang to the Chinese audience.

"Shopkeeper Shen, Brother Liang will be off tomorrow, so I will trouble your chef." At the end of the meeting, Qin Mohan made a request to Shen Fang.

Shen Fang smiled wryly and said, "Oh, I knew I shouldn't talk too much, and now I've got myself involved."

Zhang Liang said worriedly at the side: "The store manager, otherwise I will continue tomorrow..."

Shen Fang waved to Zhang Liang and said, "No, just follow what we said, I'll cook tomorrow."

"Brother Liang, it's not a simple vacation for you and Xiaotong. Don't forget that you still have tasks. Don't worry, Shen Fang can handle it in the back kitchen." Others don't know Shen Fang's skills, and they have been with him for many years Qin Mohan knew that his cooking skills were not inferior to Zhang Liang.

Shen Fang got up and took down the small blackboard hanging behind the bar: "I'm going to change the recipe now. I suggest that we change the recipe every two or three days, so that guests can eat fresh and experience Chinese cuisine."

Everyone behind him watched what dishes he was going to change, and saw a few dishes he wrote on the blackboard: "Shredded Pork with Beijing Sauce", "Braised Lion Head", "Dried Shredded Scallops"... .

After returning to the residence, everyone separated. Although there were many things in the past two days, it was just a variety show for them. Jin Mengjia and Tang Yixin went to the swimming pool for a swim, while Zhang Liang and Yu Xiaotong were discussing the itinerary for tomorrow's play.Only Qin Mohan was discussing with Wang Tian whether to edit and adjust the content of these two days.

"Mo Han, let's see if we need to reduce our losses in the past two days, or we will be discussed by fans after the post-broadcast." The shooting time here is 20 days, but the post-production only needs [-] episodes , so you can do some targeted editing in the later stage.

"I don't want it anymore. Let's see the shooting effect tomorrow. When opening a restaurant overseas, there are profits and losses. If it is the same as the previous two days, the audience will definitely think that these diners are entrusted by us." For Wang Tian Qin Mohan still denied the proposal: "Let's show the most realistic situation of opening a restaurant, including the ingredients we waste, and explain it in the show, so that the audience can know that opening a restaurant overseas is not an easy task. Huaxia Food is not really what many Chinese people think, foreigners are flocking to it.”

To be honest, this is what Qin Mohan considered when making the show. If there are too many camera language to modify, then it is better to save a script to make a film and television drama, why bother to open a restaurant here.

"Honey, I'm sorry..." Back in the room, Qin Mohan expressed apologies to Shen Fang who was leaning on the bed and reading a book. He objected to his proposal for a vacation for all staff twice today, and trapped him in the kitchen.

"You don't have to tell me you're sorry, I mainly don't want to see you so tired."

"Thank you, husband." Qin Mohan was only by his side to relieve all burdens, and showed her little girly side, leaning gently in his arms, unwilling to get up.
