Daming: I, Yang Xian, really govern Yang!

All the businessmen present were filled with joy because Chen Liaoyuan just said that he had cracked the secret recipe of lotus leaf chicken.

"Even if I tell you the secret recipe of lotus leaf chicken now, you can't change anything?"

At this moment, a voice sounded in the room, bringing everyone back to reality.

Everyone turned to look at the speaker, with expressions of confusion, shock, or anger on their faces.

"Shopkeeper Chen, what do you mean by this? Are you not going to tell us the secret recipe of lotus leaf chicken?" A rather impatient man said directly.

"Old Wang, don't be anxious. Let Boss Chen finish his sentence." Another person next to the impatient man stood up and held him back. At the same time, he turned to look at Chen Liaoyuan and said with a smile. "Boss Chen, we also know that in order to crack the secret recipe of lotus leaf chicken, your Yangquan Restaurant must have spent a lot of manpower and material resources, so we don't want you in vain. Just tell me the number, and I believe that the brothers will understand."

"Yes, Boss Chen, everything is easy to discuss."

The other businessmen present also echoed.

Chen Liaoyuan shook his head slightly and said, "It's not a matter of money."

"Old Chen, what do you mean? Just tell everyone directly what it takes before you are willing to tell us the secret recipe. You don't think that in this situation, you alone can fight against this Yuelai Restaurant. Come on." Seeing Chen Liaoyuan shaking his head, a businessman said.

Chen Liaoyuan looked at the crowd and said, "I can tell you the secret recipe of Lotus Leaf Chicken for free. As Boss Sun said, all of us businessmen in the restaurant industry in Jiangnan today are a whole. We all prosper and suffer."

Everyone was overjoyed to hear that Chen Liaoyuan wanted to tell them the secret recipe of lotus leaf chicken for free.

But the smiles on their faces froze as soon as they bloomed.

"But with this secret recipe of lotus leaf chicken, we are still no match for Yuelai Restaurant." Chen Liaoyuan's voice sounded in the room.

"Why is this again?"

"Old Chen, don't raise others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige."

"Yes, this battle has just begun."

"You will know the secret recipe of lotus leaf chicken after you have seen it." Chen Liaoyuan took out the recipe for lotus leaf chicken that he had already prepared and put it on the table.

This recipe immediately grabbed everyone’s attention.

Everyone rushed to circulate it.

After a while, the whole room was silent.

Everyone fell silent after reading the recipe.

There was a look of disbelief on everyone's face.

"This, how is this possible? If this lotus leaf chicken really uses so many spices, how can the price of Yuelai Restaurant be so cheap?!"

"Yes, if you follow the sales method of Yuelai Restaurant, aren't you losing money?"

Every boss present has at least five years of experience in the restaurant and catering industry. As for the raw materials and condiments indicated on the recipes, they only need to take a glance at them and the corresponding prices will appear in their minds.

It is precisely because of this that they fell into collective silence.

However, what Chen Liaoyuan said next really made them despair.

Chen Liaoyuan glanced at everyone and slowly said: "I don't know if any of you here have personally tasted the dishes of Yuelai Restaurant. I can tell you with great confidence that not only lotus leaf chicken, but also all the dishes in Yuelai Restaurant All the dishes use expensive spices."     All dishes use spices? !

Any dish has three parts of work and seven parts of ingredients.

They finally figured out the reason for their failure, but it was precisely because of this that they became even more desperate.

"Then what else can we do now?"

"What else can we do? Just wait until it closes down."

"You all, stop arguing. Since Boss Chen has brought us together, he will naturally find a solution."

Everyone looked at Chen Liaoyuan.

Chen Liaoyuan looked solemn and spoke slowly: "We alone cannot deal with Yuelai Restaurant now. I wonder if everyone still remembers the sudden rise of Mingji Textile Factory a few months ago."

"Of course I remember that the emergence of the Mingji Textile Factory almost killed us Jiangnan textile merchants. Therefore, I don't know how many old factories have closed down. The ones that are still there today are just hanging on." Someone said.

"I have checked out the details of this Yuelai Restaurant, and it is inextricably linked to Mingji Trading Company. When Mingji got involved in Jiangnan's textile industry, we didn't say anything. Now it's our turn. Who knows what will happen next? Which industry will it be?”

Chen Liaoyuan said solemnly: "So this time, we must unite all the businessmen in the entire Jiangnan business community."

"Spice needs to find help from merchants who are engaged in shipping, so that they can sell it to us as cheaply as possible to help us get through this crisis. Then we need to cut off the other party's supply chain. Yuelai Restaurant now mainly relies on lotus leaf chicken to attract customers. We can ask the people below to go to various villages and collect all the villagers' chickens, so that our restaurant will be selling lotus leaf chicken, and their Yuelai Restaurant will have no chickens to sell."

"It's just that we need everyone's help in this matter, because I, Mr. Chen, alone cannot collect all the chickens in Jiangnan!"

"But according to shopkeeper Chen's orders!" All the businessmen in the room stood up and said in unison.

Because they all know in their hearts that this is their last chance.

Chen Liaoyuan's method of siphoning off salary from the bottom is actually quite clever, which is why he was able to impress businessmen from all the big restaurants in Jiangnan to join his plan.

It's just that his failure was due to the lag in intelligence information.

However, in this era, intelligence is the most scarce resource.

War between countries is fashionable and such, let alone a small businessman.

the other side.

Yangzhou.

Yang Xian didn't put too much energy into Yuelai Restaurant. He threw the two brothers Liu Yong and Liu Min over and temporarily helped keep an eye on the matter. He also happened to take a look at their two brothers' working abilities.

Compared with the tall Liu Yong, his younger brother Liu Min is quite handsome. He wears a turban on his head and carries a pipe with him. He is also more considerate.

This is why, in just a few years, Liu Min went from being a bricklayer in the building construction department to a middle-level member of the sales department today.

At that time, a few days after Liu Bowen and his son left, Yang Xian had someone call their brothers to talk.

At first, I just wanted to understand the situation first, without thinking about where to put them specifically.

But later in the chat, Yang Xian learned that the two brothers Liu Yong and Liu Min were working in catering before fleeing the famine. The two were chefs themselves and ran a small dumpling restaurant, which was quite famous in the local area.

The reason why they have not thought about returning to their old business in recent years is because dumplings are not popular in the south, and also because their life in Mingji is too comfortable now. (End of chapter)
