The story of a cook

Chapter 420 Planning of the Tavern
Son's birthday.

Before I knew it, my son was born for a year.

It seems like a year has passed, and the days go by so fast.

Lin Yan brought her son and Zhihao's children to the provincial capital. She was good enough to see the two children alone.

Lin Yan said that her son could support the bed and walk.

Imagining the scene of his son walking on the bed, he unconsciously laughed——
I asked Lin Yan if she could bring her two children here at once?Lin Yan said that she brought her here. Her son is sensible and doesn't make much trouble. He plays by himself when he is full.Zhihao's children are small and cry a lot, but they can also crawl, so they are easy to take care of.

It's hard to imagine Lin Yan raising two children together, it must be hard, she just doesn't talk about it.

My wife is working very hard.

All I can do is work hard and earn a lot of money, nothing else can help.

"My wife has worked hard." Said to Lin Yan on the phone.

"Go, it's disgusting." Lin Yan said: "Needless to say these things, you just need to earn money. Our family has nothing but money now."

"Don't worry my wife, my husband promises to make good money." I said.

"It's enough to make money, don't worry about me, the family affairs can be settled." Lin Yan said.After talking, he laughed, and continued: "Our son hardly needs me to take care of him. Brother Li and his sister-in-law will. My sister-in-law will help me take care of my son after work, and my son loves to follow his sister-in-law now."

"Really? Our son has a relationship with his sister-in-law." I said.

"Brother Li likes our son, and Li Jian likes it too. He visits him every day." Lin Yan said happily.

"Isn't he the son's godfather?" I said.

"Yes, he is the son's godfather. If you don't come back, our son won't know you anymore." Lin Yan said.

"I can't go back now, I can't wait until I'm busy and I'll take two days off to go back."

"You don't need to come back in a hurry, just earn money there, don't worry about your family, my son and I are fine, if you need anything, I'll call Brother Li."

"Don't bother people all the time."

"It's okay if you don't bother, you can come back."

I can't go back now, I have to earn money, this is reality.

I don't want my son to be fake, and I don't want my daughter-in-law to be fake.My son really wants to go back for his birthday, but he can't go back unless he doesn't work here anymore.If you work for others, you have to listen to them.

Is it okay not to listen to the boss?

Row!
Unless you are the boss and you run the restaurant, otherwise you have to listen to the boss.

Feel the helplessness of part-time job.

When can I make up my own mind?

My son can't go back for his birthday. Is earning money really that important?
Earning money is really important, I have to support my family.

I want to do whatever I want, unless I have the final say.

If you want to talk about it, unless you are the boss, or achieve the same position as the boss, you can play a pivotal role in the restaurant and can influence the fate of the restaurant.

Being the boss is the most straightforward, but unfortunately I have no money.

It has not reached that level of being pivotal, it is far from it.

If you have no money, can you make a difference?
Yes, it takes a lot of effort.

Then this is the goal I strive for when I am unable to open a restaurant and become the boss-to be the CEO.

For the sake of the family and for the son, it is necessary to fight like this.

It seems that he has determined the path he will take in the future and has a goal.

People can only tap their potential better if they are pushed.

It's almost May Day, and the summer of [-] is here.

The business of the tavern is very good, with a daily turnover of more than [-], and it has completely become a landmark small restaurant in Fuxin. Many owners have gone to learn it. They feel that the model of the tavern is very good, and some even want to join.

That night, I was sitting in the tavern with Sister Jiang and Xie Xiufen. It was past ten o'clock, and there were still many guests eating.

"Master Tan, someone is looking for me to talk about joining now." Xie Xiufen said.

"Yes, good thing." I said.

"What do you think our family will do if they want to join us?" Xie Xiufen asked.

"Our family does not yet have the conditions to recruit franchisees." I said.After speaking, looking at Sister Jiang and Xie Xiufen, the expression on Sister Jiang's face was better, and Xie Xiufen looked puzzled.

I said: "It's a good thing to be a franchisee, and you can make more money. Our family's model has been recognized, and it will definitely be a trend in the future. Needless to say, everyone knows it. But before we are a franchisee, we need to do three things."

"First, you need to register the brand first. Our smoked flavor tavern has been open for two months now, and it has been established. Customers of the smoked flavor are all recognized, and the dishes are also good, especially our dumplings. Don't look at it, there are only three kinds of fillings. But eating is absolutely fine. I dare not say that it is the best in Fuxin. These are the characteristics of our family, and only our family can have them. Others can’t learn. In this case, we want to make the bistro To grow bigger, the first step is to register a brand, which belongs to our own brand.”

"How do you register the brand?" Xie Xiufen asked.

"This is the business of the two of you bosses." I smiled and said, "The tavern can't be registered. registered."

Sister Jiang asked: "What's the name? Can the Smoked Flavor Bistro work?"

"No, the word "Xianwei" cannot be registered. You can call it "Xianwei" and others can call it "Xianwei". It's a practice, and the Industrial and Commercial Bureau can't ask you to register the cooking method." I said.

"What should it be called?" Sister Jiang asked.

I said: "The two of you are the bosses, I won't participate." Then I said: "Just now I said that our family can't join now. There is a second reason, that is, our internal strength is not in place. , No process and standards have been formed, and it looks good now, we all know that this is done by our family members, if it is not done by family members, can we do this?"

"It's probably enough." Xie Xiufen said.

"It's not that it's supposed to be bad, but it's really bad." I said, "I don't want to discourage your enthusiasm. Now it's Lao Wang who cooks the smoked flavor. Your brother-in-law cooks, your sister-in-law makes dumplings, and your sister makes cold dishes. They are all my family members. The family didn’t say anything about their work, and I promise to do my best. Now that you join a family, can the products of the franchised store be like ours? I promise not, it will be different from our store. If the franchised store doesn’t do well, it will affect us. A store, isn't it?"

"That's what happened." Xie Xiufen said.

"There is also a third thing. Fuxin is such a big place. Taking the urban area as an example, if we open four branches, it will be almost the same. If there are more, we will compete with ourselves. There is no need. If there are four branches, I will It is recommended not to join the store, we are doing it ourselves, they are all directly-operated stores, not only the quality is guaranteed, but also can make more money. This is just a suggestion, you two bosses should consider joining or direct-operating stores." I said.

"It's better to do direct sales." Sister Jiang said.

Xie Xiufen also nodded in approval.

I said: "Whether it is franchising or direct sales, the most important thing is to register the brand first."

"Master Tan, what name do you think we should register?" Xie Xiufen asked.

"Choose a better down-to-earth name, or one that feels like home when you hear it, or it's very affectionate." I said.

The two sat there and began to think of names.

They came up with several names, "Our Family", "Xiaotunzi", "Haoyikou" and "Sisters", and finally the two named them "Sisters".After the name was decided, Xie Xiufen was responsible for registering. At the same time, it was decided not to recruit franchisees, but to continue to practice internal skills and open a direct store when the time was right.

I said to the two of them: "Don't worry about it now, since our model is good, it is a trend, and there is room for development, we will start to cultivate our internal skills now, make our products and services the best, and form our own processes and standards. If you just want to open a tavern to earn some money, then you two have already made money now. Take a closer look, this is our own brand store, and the core technology is in our hands. After the cost of the tavern is recovered Immediately invest in the second company, and the second company will be a copy of the first company.”

"Looking at the current business situation, the cost can be recovered in five months. I suggest to start the site selection for the second store in the third month. After the location is selected, start the decoration in the fourth month, and wait until the fifth month. It happens to be October, and we will strive to open the second store during the National Day. The third and fourth stores will be opened during the Chinese New Year, one will be opened in half a year, and four stores will be opened by the end of the New Year. It is almost saturated. At that time, if there are franchisees from outside regions, you can join in, set a fixed annual franchise fee, how to provide product training for others, how to decorate the store, etc. Don’t underestimate this small tavern. Although the store is small, do it well. It’s just a roadside cash machine, and it earns a lot of money a year. If there are four stores, a big hotel earns more in a year, and you two will be the chairman of the chain group by then.”

"If that's the case, Master Tan, you will be the executive general manager." Sister Jiang said.

I smiled and said: "Everything is made by people, and any big business is started from a young age. Let me tell you about the Hongji Dumpling Restaurant in the provincial capital. It was made by the sisters in the beginning. At the beginning It's a small dumpling restaurant, less than [-] square meters, the sisters worked very hard, earned some money, and then began to expand the store to [-] square meters. The [-] square meter shop has been in business for eight years, and the business is very good. How can I say that two shop sisters have worked together for eight years, even the two sisters have conflicts, but the conflicts can't affect the business, and the business must be put first. After that, the two sisters began to work hard , opened a shop of [-] square meters, and three years later opened a second shop of [-] square meters, with a daily turnover of more than [-]. Now the two sisters are well-known restaurant owners in the provincial capital, pure heavyweights."

"I think you two sisters are also very good and get along well. Sister Xie is stable and very rigorous in everything she does; Sister Jiang is cheerful, outgoing, courageous, and pioneering. The two of you are complementary cooperation. In the future Guaranteed to do better and better. If two people cooperate, they must trust each other. Remember a sentence, if you make a deal, you will gain and lose. Two people can have disputes, but there should be no suspicion. Do what you have decided, and you can’t give up halfway. .And you must have your own opinions. You can't listen to the nonsense of people on both sides. Don't even listen to your family members. It is true that what your family members tell you is for your own good, but their starting point is your side. It is not from the perspective of hotel development, which may easily lead to misunderstanding and misjudgment, and finally lead to the failure of cooperation.”

"Don't think that it's okay if the two of you don't cooperate. If you do it alone, you can fix all the technology. When the time comes, you will make money yourself, which is more than when you cooperate. Don't worry, when the two cooperate If you can earn money, when the two of you are separated, no matter how good you are, you won’t be able to earn money as before, because you don’t have that blessing, and to put it mildly, your virtue is gone, so where will you earn your money?”

"Brother, don't worry about this. Xiufen and I have nothing to do. We have been sisters for many years, and we are closer than real sisters. There will never be disagreements or conflicts. "Sister Jiang said.

"Both of us will never do it in this life." Xie Xiufen said.

"That's good." I said.

After the conversation that day, Xie Xiufen started to register the "Sisters" trademark, and it was registered a month later.The tavern's business began to boom in June, with a daily turnover of more than [-], and the most sold at [-].In the evening, there are too many guests to sit in the room, and tables are set up outside. It is also a sight for guests to sit outside, eat chicken racks and drink beer.

Xie Xiufen is a woman who works. She started to look for a store and planned to open a second tavern.She was looking for a store outside, and sometimes the store couldn't take care of her. Sister Jiang couldn't come down from the restaurant, so she couldn't put the boss down.

I told Xie Xiufen and Jiang Jie that the tavern would be guaranteed to develop in the future, at least four.The four stores cannot be managed by one person. Each store should be managed by a store manager, and the store manager responsibility system should be implemented.At that time, the two of them will be the boss, and the boss will do the boss's work, and the store manager will be responsible for all the work in the store. If there is anything to do, he will directly talk to the store manager.

The two of them accepted my suggestion and planned to call Zheng Jiaqi to be the manager of the first store.

Zheng Jiaqi is indeed the right candidate.
