The Super Rich: Start from when the family business is about to go bankrupt!

Chapter 664 WPG only earned this much after all that work? But it's still quite a lot! Xiao Qingyue's little scheme!
Tianfu, Longquanshan Cloud Tea House.

After obtaining the information related to the Thor project, Shi Bin did not leave immediately. Instead, he contacted the security department of Tianfu Aircraft Industry Group to have security personnel come to pick him up.

After all, he came alone. If he were to return alone with the Thor project data, what if something unexpected happened?

Although the probability of an accident is very small, we still have to be careful!

As the saying goes: You should not have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others.

If you think about people's hearts in a darker light, Shi Bin's idea is actually not wrong.

It was nearly five o'clock in the afternoon.

Tianfu Aircraft Industry Group arranged for a full twenty security personnel to escort Shi Bin, a grand procession that surprised even An Wuyang.

After Shi Bin left, An Wuyang took the initiative to extend an invitation, "President Song, how about we go to Xingchuan Restaurant for dinner tonight?"

Song Jiakun readily agreed, "No problem, I quite like the taste of Xingchuanlou."

The two got up and set off. An Wuyang invited Song Jiakun to ride with him in a Rolls-Royce Cullinan. They chatted about some things in the medical industry on the way.

An Wuyang mainly inquired about establishing a hospital.

Song Jiakun offered some suggestions regarding hospitals under the Rongcheng Life and Health Group.

About an hour later, they finally arrived at Xingchuanlou. It took them longer because of the traffic jam during the evening rush hour.

Inside Xingchuan Tower, An Wuyang saw Tian Shiwen chatting with Xiao Qingyue. It was unclear what they were talking about, but both of them had smiles on their faces.

When An Wuyang and Song Jiakun entered Xingchuan Tower, Tian Shiwen caught a glimpse of them out of the corner of her eye and took the initiative to greet them.

"President An, President Song," Tian Shiwen greeted politely.

An Wuyang nodded slightly in response.

Xiao Qingyue walked to An Wuyang's side and took out her phone to send An Wuyang two messages.

Xiao Qingyue: "President An, the salaries of the kitchen and front-of-house staff at Xingchuan Restaurant have been coordinated, and the various reward and punishment regulations have also been finalized."

Xiao Qingyue: [Regulations on Salaries and Rewards/Punishments for Xingchuan Building Staff].

These things are actually not complicated, especially with Gu Biao, a veteran who has been immersed in the catering industry for over thirty years, making them even simpler to handle.

An Wuyang first led everyone to the private room, and he also called Tian Shiwen to join them. Then, in the private room, he checked the staff salaries of Xingchuanlou, as well as the details of the reward and punishment regulations.

Regarding staff salaries, head chef Gu Biao earns 20,000 yuan a month. Gu Biao's first apprentice, Liang Peng, is currently the second chef at Xingchuanlou, and his salary has increased from 10,000 yuan to 15,000 yuan.

In addition, Gu Biao's second apprentice Cai Bin and third apprentice Gu Xiaochun will serve as the third and fourth chefs respectively, with a salary of 1.5 yuan.

After all, their current salaries are already 1.2 yuan. We can't expect their salaries to drop if they switch jobs, can we?

The last chef was Gu Xiaodong, whose salary was only five thousand yuan!

Because Gu Xiaodong has not yet completed his apprenticeship, at least Gu Biao felt that Gu Xiaodong had not completed his apprenticeship. Although he could already work at the stove, he could not completely manage the cooking independently, which meant he could not go out and serve as the head of the kitchen like Cai Bin and Gu Xiaochun.

Speaking of which, Gu Xiaochun is Gu Xiaodong's cousin. He is the son of Gu Biao's elder brother, and thus Gu Biao's nephew.

As for the three kitchen staff and two side dish cooks in the kitchen, their wages were based on industry standards: 5,000 for kitchen staff and 4,000 for side dish cooks.

Finally, an additional 10% bonus was added for everyone, but the bonus was not written into the employment contract.

Overall, the human resource cost in the kitchen has just exceeded 100,000 yuan per month, which is indeed a significant increase compared to the previous Xingchuanlou.

As for the front of house, Xingchuanlou originally only had three service staff. Now that Xingchuanlou's business has become booming, five more people have been temporarily hired, but there is still a shortage of staff.

According to Gu Biao's plan, two to four more people will be recruited, while existing staff will be selected based on merit, and some service staff with poor service awareness and impatient personalities will be replaced.

The service industry requires a good service mentality and a good temper; otherwise, disputes can easily arise.

Among the front desk staff, apart from the lobby manager whose monthly salary was set at 9,000 yuan, all other service staff were paid 5,000 yuan.

This salary level is actually quite high in Tianfu, because in the general catering industry, the salary of service staff is only three or four thousand yuan.

Even though the salary at a star-rated hotel is slightly higher, the requirements are also higher, such as age, height, weight, and even appearance.

There are no such requirements for the service staff at Xingchuanlou. As long as you are attentive to service and have a gentle personality, you can work as a waiter at Xingchuanlou.

An Wuyang then checked the details of the reward and punishment regulations.

The detailed rules state that Xingchuanlou has four days off per month, on a rotating schedule, and employees cannot rest on public holidays.

The catering industry usually does better business during holidays, so it typically does not close on holidays.

Based on this work schedule arrangement, the first thing is the full attendance bonus, which covers all employees of Xingchuan Building.

When an employee of Xingchuanlou only takes four days off a month and works the rest of the time, they can receive a full attendance bonus of 300 yuan.

Secondly, there are transportation and communication subsidies. These two subsidies are combined, and as long as the number of days off taken in a month is less than or equal to three, an additional 300 yuan can be obtained.

As for meal allowance
Xingchuanlou is a restaurant, okay?
For a restaurant, isn't providing meals a basic requirement?

Preparing staff meals is a traditional task in the kitchen, and it's usually the work of the assistant chefs and sous chefs; the head chef rarely does it.

Next is the housing subsidy.

Xingchuan Building provides staff dormitories, which are four-person rooms. If you do not want to live in the staff dormitory and choose to rent a house outside, you can receive a housing subsidy of 600 yuan per month.

However, there are requirements for receiving housing subsidies, namely, the number of days of leave taken in a single month must be less than or equal to three.

As for the claim that locals own their own houses and don't need to rent,...
This Xingchuan Tower is irrelevant!
As long as you do not live in the dormitory of Xingchuan Building and meet the conditions, you can apply for a housing subsidy.

Finally, there's the "Award for Being Wronged".

This was inspired by a certain retail company, and the final price was set at one thousand yuan.

As long as you have been wronged but still provided good service to customers, and pass the investigation and review, you can receive a reward.

An Wuyang quickly reviewed Xingchuanlou's staff salary and reward/punishment rules. He nodded in satisfaction. Gu Biao, as expected of a veteran in the catering industry with over thirty years of experience, had set up these rules well.

Although there is a problem with slightly higher human resource costs, this is because Xingchuanlou has too many staff.

For example, there are four chefs in the kitchen who can cook independently, which significantly increases human resource costs.

Normally, most restaurants employ a head chef and a assistant chef, with the head chef preparing elaborate dishes and the assistant chef handling everyday fare, thus saving on human resource costs.

However, doing so can lead to inconsistent food quality.

It's the same restaurant, but sometimes the food is good and sometimes it's not. That's most likely a problem with the quality of the kitchen staff. An Wuyang doesn't mind the slightly high labor costs because he triggered a new random event that brought Xingchuanlou's monthly revenue to the range of 200 million to 300 million.

Meanwhile, the trigger for this random event was a salary increase, which was essentially a reward for increasing human resource costs.

So An Wuyang really doesn't care about the mere increase in human resource costs!

If we calculate based on a monthly turnover of 3 million, the net profit margin can reach 20%, which means that the net profit that can be distributed as dividends is 600,000.

An Wuyang owns 40% of the shares, and Xiao Qingyue also owns 40% of the shares, which means they can receive 240,000 yuan.

wrong
You also need to pay taxes!
Even if Xingchuanlou has paid the relevant taxes during its operation, it will still need to pay personal income tax again if the money earned by Xingchuanlou is distributed to the shareholders' personal accounts.

The corresponding personal income tax rate is 20%, which means that 48,000 Xia Guoyuan must be paid, and the final profit is only 192,000 Xia Guoyuan.

After An Wuyang finished calculating the data on his phone, he showed a helpless expression.

After working hard all day, I only earned less than 200,000?

good good!
Where are those guys who say the restaurant industry is profitable?
Some people think the catering industry is extremely profitable. I can only suggest that these people take a look at the listed companies in the catering industry. Listed companies publish annual reports, so take a look at their profit margins.

In fact, Xingchuanlou's profit margin is already quite good in the catering industry; it's just that Xingchuanlou has three shareholders.

If there is only one shareholder, Xingchuanlou's annual net profit would be at least six million.

Is a net profit of six million a year a lot?

For An Wuyang, that was practically nothing!
The main reason is that the fifth watch of the night is too profitable; a net profit of six million is just a blink of an eye for An Wuyang.

However, if this data is placed in the world's largest market for exploiting retail investors...
In this market of exploited investors, there were approximately 4700 listed companies in 2021, and according to the published annual reports, 3953 of them were profitable.

In the catering industry, more than 60% of companies have an annual net profit of less than 5 million yuan.

If we compare it to the entire stock market, it probably exceeds 3,600 listed companies.

So do you still think that a net profit of six million a year is very small?

Inside the box.

After quickly reviewing the information, An Wuyang gave Xiao Qingyue a thumbs up, "Great job, you did a great job!"

Xiao Qingyue responded somewhat embarrassedly, "Actually, it's mainly thanks to Chef Gu."

An Wuyang gave an ambiguous smile.

Just then, Gu Xiaodong walked in carrying a plate of osmanthus-flavored glutinous rice lotus root. An Wuyang teased, "Chef Gu, why are you serving the food yourself?"

Song Jiakun laughed along with An Wuyang's teasing.

Xiao Qingyue also smiled.

Tian Shiwen then asked frankly, "Xiaodong, what time do you get off work today?"

Gu Xiaodong's face immediately turned red, and he even stammered, "I...I should have gone at eight o'clock or eight-thirty."

Tian Shiwen continued, "Then let's go out for a late-night snack after you get off work."

"I have to go now." Gu Xiaodong hurriedly ran off.

An Wuyang laughed too, but in her heart she was sighing for Gu Xiaodong. This innocent virgin was going to be played like a dog by Tian Shiwen, wasn't he?

What a pitiful fellow!

However, An Wuyang noticed a detail: Tian Shiwen's purity level did not drop again.

It seems that Tian Shiwen has changed a little after meeting Gu Xiaodong?

The dinner party ended around 7 p.m.

An Wuyang left with Xiao Qingyue, while Yuan Liyu continued working, finding her job as a cashier at Xingchuanlou quite comfortable.

On the way back to the Rongguo Mansion, Xiao Qingyue said with a sigh, "I think Chef Gu is in trouble!"

“Indeed!” An Wuyang agreed.

"Manager Tian, ​​well..." Xiao Qingyue didn't know how to describe Tian Shiwen for a moment.

She actually wanted to borrow a line from a movie: This woman doesn't seem like a good person!
In the afternoon, Xiao Qingyue and Tian Shiwen talked about many things. The feeling that Tian Shiwen gave Xiao Qingyue was just like that line from the movie.

"Don't worry, Chef Gu isn't that important in Xingchuan Restaurant," An Wuyang replied calmly.

Yes!

Gu Xiaodong was just a junior cook at Xingchuanlou. The head chef was his father, and the sous chefs were Gu Biao's three apprentices. What was so important about Gu Xiaodong?

An Wuyang, on the contrary, wanted to see Gu Xiaodong being treated like a dog by Tian Shiwen, and then having a sudden enlightenment, focusing on his cooking skills, and finally becoming a master chef.

Of course, if Gu Xiaodong does indeed find love with Xian Xian, An Wuyang will also send her blessings.

Someone has to take over, so why can't it be Gu Xiaodong?

Less than ten minutes.

An Wuyang and Xiao Qingyue returned to the Huayu Rongguo Mansion. Since they had just eaten dinner, neither of them had any intention of exercising together.

Xiao Qingyue took the initiative to ask, "President An, how about we do a live stream together for a while?"

Xiao Qingyue also had her own little scheme!
Xiao Qingyue hopes to do a live stream with An Wuyang to publicly demonstrate their relationship; this can be considered Xiao Qingyue's little scheme!

Actually, Xiao Qingyue wanted to travel with An Wuyang. She wanted An Wuyang to take her to see the mountains, rivers, and the world, but she was afraid that she would be rejected if she brought it up.

Therefore, Xiao Qingyue could only try to find other ways to satisfy herself.

An Wuyang didn't see through Xiao Qingyue's little scheme, because An Wuyang didn't care at all that his relationship with Xiao Qingyue was exposed.

In fact, An Wuyang's image on the internet has long been ruined!
The internet has kept a clear record of how many girlfriends An Wuyang has had, and most netizens don't care how many girlfriends he has; they're more interested in when An Wuyang will give out "fan service" (a form of entertainment).

“Okay, let’s do a live stream together for a while,” An Wuyang agreed.

But just as he agreed, his phone emitted the voice ringtone from the Little White Dove app, and the caller ID showed Tang Wenshu as the caller.

Under normal circumstances, Tang Wenshu would not make voice calls to An Wuyang. He would only make voice calls for important matters; otherwise, he would send messages.

"Wait a moment, I need to take a call. There's something going on at the company," An Wuyang explained.
