Catering God

Chapter 95 Do you dare to spend the night outside?
Although Jiang Feng was very tired after taking Chen Jingyu out for a day of fun, they relaxed a lot after soaking in the hot springs.

This place is only more than an hour's drive from the school, and with Yuan Gonggong watching over him, Jiang Feng didn't dare to take Chen Jingyu out to spend the night.

If he is reported to Chen Tiankuo, he will be skinned alive.

After dinner and a short rest, Jiang Feng drove Chen Jingyu back to school.

"You guys really know how to have fun. I've been in Handu for so long, but I haven't been to Qingcheng Mountain yet." Gao Jiayuan curled her lips and hugged Chen Jingyu, who had just gotten out of the passenger seat and was still a little confused.

The night in early autumn was a little chilly, but the girl’s cheeks were still rosy after being moisturized by the hot spring.

"You were told to go, but you didn't go."

Jiang Feng said with a smile.

He had asked Gao Jiayuan before if she wanted to join him. That way, even if he got tired after playing outside, he wouldn't have to rush back so late.

But Gao Jiayuan clearly refused.

"I don't want to be a light bulb..." Gao Jiayuan muttered, then put her arm around Chen Jingyu's waist and waved to Jiang Feng: "Bye, I'll take Jingyu back first."

"OK Bye Bye."

Jiang Feng delivered Chen Jingyu to Eunuch Yuan, which was considered a successful mission.

……

Early November.

Jiang Feng and Tang Wenjun went to the train station together and met the driver.

"Brother Lu, welcome to Handu."

Tang Wenjun gave me a hug as soon as they met.

Lu Cheng saw Tang Wenjun and immediately teased him, "Is the food in Handu so good? I haven't seen you for two months, and you've gained so much weight."

"It's impossible to lose weight living in Handu." Tang Wenjun said very annoyedly.

He and Lu Cheng knew each other when they were selling black duck sauce. If he hadn't arrived early, Lu Cheng would probably have been the top seller.

Tang Wenjun has always respected people who are more capable than himself and never felt jealous.

It just so happens that Lu Cheng has an easy-going personality, so even though they are competitors, their relationship is quite harmonious.

Cheng Lu turned around and extended his hand to Jiang Feng, who was standing next to him. He said jokingly, "Boss Jiang, I'm bringing all my wealth to join you."

"Don't worry, I've already set up the pig-killing plate here, I'm just worried that you won't come."

Jiang Feng also started joking.

"Hahaha……"

After the joke, the three of them got in the car, and Tang Wenjun drove Jiang Feng and Lu Cheng towards the school.

Jiang Feng explained: "Our company's office is located near Hanchuan University. The house we rented for you is not far from the company, and the rent is not high. I will give you a subsidy."

Jiang Feng has always been generous as a boss.

After coming all this way to seek refuge with him, it would be unacceptable if he couldn't even provide me with food and lodging.

Besides, renting an apartment is not expensive, and there is no need to save that much money when treating capable employees.

Lu Cheng immediately thanked him, "Thank you so much, Mr. Jiang."

On the way to the company, Jiang Feng introduced the current development status to Lu Cheng.

So far, they have expanded to 12 directly-operated stores and more than 30 franchise stores.

When Lu Cheng heard this, he was a little shocked. You know, Jiang Feng has only been studying at university in Handu for two months.

He studied and did business at the same time, and the speed and scale were so astonishing.

Lu Chen couldn't help but feel a little secretly happy again.

Sure enough, his decision was right.

His resolute decision to follow Jiang Feng to develop in Handu was definitely the wisest decision he had made since he started working.

"Boss Jiang, what will my job be next?"

Seeing that Lu Cheng was a little impatient, Jiang Feng also smiled and said slowly: "Don't worry, we can talk slowly when we get to the company."

This is the charm of a startup company. It allows employees to see the hope of success and motivates everyone.

Of course, the most influential among them is the leader Jiang Feng.

With him, Fengsheng Catering has a soul.

Soon, Tang Wenjun drove to the company's office building.

Lu Cheng followed Jiang Feng into the office and immediately saw Zhou Xiaoming who was busy.

"His name is Zhou Xiaoming, and he's currently in charge of franchise recruitment."

Jiang Feng introduced to Cheng Lu.

Zhou Xiaoming had just finished a phone call and immediately put it down. He walked over with a smile and shook hands with Lu Cheng. "My name is Zhou Xiaoming. I've often heard Brother Jiang mention you before."

"Please give me your guidance on the journey."

Although Lu Cheng is old and a senior, he is very humble.

Jiang Feng asked Zhou Xiaoming to stop working for a while, and they sat down to chat.

Tang Wenjun immediately went to pour a few cups of hot tea.

Jiang Feng said to Lu Cheng, "Currently, in our team, Zhou Xiaoming is responsible for communicating with franchise customers, and Tang Wenjun is responsible for auditing directly-operated and franchised stores... I hope you will be responsible for the management and scheduling of the central kitchen and the employees of each directly-operated store."

Before Lu Cheng came, Tang Wenjun's work content was quite complicated.

He often does whatever Jiang Feng needs him to do, such as running the store, expanding the directly-operated stores, and recruiting and training employees for the directly-operated stores.

After the journey begins, these tasks can be spread out and everyone's stress can be reduced a lot.

After all, Lu Cheng is very experienced in management.

Jiang Feng continued, "This is everyone's temporary assignment. Our main development direction right now is to attract investment and franchisees. So, not only Zhou Xiaoming, but you and Tang Wenjun will also be involved in the investment and franchise work in addition to your main duties."

When attracting investment and joining the franchise, commissions are directly paid according to performance, so Tang Wenjun and Lu Cheng can earn more by doing more.

"Okay, no problem, I understand." Lu Cheng nodded.

The four of them sat together and talked about work issues again.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Jiang Feng stood up and said to Tang Wenjun, "Take Lu Cheng to the rental house to clean up and arrange it, and buy some daily necessities on the way."

Tang Wenjun and Lu Cheng stood up.

Just as the two were about to leave, the door of another office cubicle suddenly opened.

A beautiful girl with fair skin, wearing a small skirt and a purple bow, came out and yawned very cutely: "Jiang Feng, the salary has been calculated... I have to go back to school. I have classes in the afternoon."

Lu Cheng was stunned.

Look at Tang Wenjun.

I wonder who this is?
Are there any female celebrities joining their company?

"Then let's go. I'll take you back."

Jiang Feng picked up the car keys of the Mercedes-Benz E and was about to take Chen Jingyu back to school.

He suddenly remembered that he hadn't introduced Lu Cheng to Chen Jingyu yet, so he stopped and said, "Jingyu, let me introduce you to our company's new partner, Lu Cheng."

Chen Jingyu then looked at the stranger who appeared in the office.

Perhaps she was a little sleepy, her beautiful eyes were dull and there was no expression on her face.

But from Lu's perspective, these cold eyes, coupled with this beautiful appearance, exuded a noble and elegant temperament from head to toe, which was extremely oppressive.

Even Lu, the oldest person present, couldn't help but feel nervous.

Fortunately, Tang Wenjun was there to remind him, "Brother Lu, Chen Jingyu is our company's financial officer, the one who manages the money..."

As Tang Wenjun spoke, he kept winking at Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng looked at Jiang Feng, then at this girl who was prettier than the actresses in TV dramas. He immediately understood what he meant and made an expression of sudden enlightenment:

"Oh, it's the boss lady... Hello, my name is Lu Cheng, please take care of me in the future."

When these words were spoken, everyone in the audience was shocked.

Tang Wenjun and Zhou Xiaoming both had wicked smiles on their faces, waiting to see the fun.

Jiang Feng's face was filled with black lines.

As for Chen Jingyu...her beautiful eyes were originally cold and there was no expression on her little face.

But when she heard what Lu Cheng had just said, her eyebrows curved immediately, "Hello, my name is Chen Jingyu."

Jiang Feng was so angry that he kicked Tang Wenjun's butt, who was making a fool of himself. "What boss lady? She's just an ordinary classmate."

Done.

Quickly take Chen Jingyu downstairs and leave this place of trouble.

Seeing Jiang Feng's strange reaction, Lu Cheng was still confused, like a monk who was at a loss for words. He looked at Tang Wenjun in confusion: "What's wrong with Mr. Jiang? Did I understand it wrongly?"

Tang Wenjun held Lu Cheng's shoulder and suppressed a smile: "Yes, yes, that's right. Your understanding is absolutely right. Our team needs warriors like you who dare to speak the truth."

Zhou Xiaoming couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Lu Cheng accomplished something they had never dared to do.

Just think about it, what would it be like to call Chen Jingyu "Boss Madam" in front of Jiang Feng?
After the itchy Lu Cheng dragged Tang Wenjun to understand the whole thing, he suddenly realized: "Oh, it turns out we are still in the ambiguous stage. Really... You young people are so troublesome when it comes to dating, and you are so shy. When I was my age, I was so bold in love and hate."

He suddenly commented in a condescending tone. Tang Wenjun admired Lu Cheng's courage to speak frankly and asked curiously, "Does Lu have a partner now?"

"No."

"Then you are pretending to be a fool."

Tang Wenjun and Zhou Xiaoming immediately rolled their eyes.

We are all single, so stop pretending to be so powerful.

at this time.

Downstairs of the office building.

Jiang Feng got in the car and waited for Chen Jingyu to fasten her seat belt. He started the car and breathed a sigh of relief: "Now that the journey is over, I can relax a lot."

It's not like I'm just a hands-off boss.

Before Lu Cheng came, Jiang Feng still had to worry about the matters in the central kitchen. Sometimes Tang Wenjun was too busy, so he had to help deal with it.

Now that the route is here, the management of employees can be handed over to route management.

Jiang Feng now only needs to plan and make the next operations and decisions.

The following complicated and trivial tasks can be completely handed over to Lu Cheng, Tang Wenjun and Zhou Xiaoming in the team.

This is the role of team building. Once the business is established, his life as a boss will become easier and easier.

in other words.

Even if Jiang Feng doesn't care about anything now and disappears for ten days or half a month, as long as the team below is there, the central kitchen, directly-operated stores and franchise stores can still operate normally.

Chen Jingyu nodded: "It can be seen that he is a good person."

Jiang Feng: “…”

……

That afternoon, Jiang Feng was taking Chen Jingyu to the snack street when he suddenly received a call from Tang Wenjun.

"Old Jiang, do you still remember that Liu Bin?"

"Remember, he's our first franchisee."

"He's quitting now and wants to terminate his franchise contract with us."

"Release him."

Jiang Feng still didn't quite agree.

After all, some franchisees may not be able to continue their business due to poor business, so they may close their stores and terminate their franchise contracts. It is not a big deal.

Tang Wenjun then said, "I thought his business was failing. When I went to inspect other franchise stores, I took a look and found that Liu Bin was still selling crispy potato chips in the store. He just didn't use our trademark or sign anymore."

"Is there still this matter?"

Jiang Feng frowned immediately.

Liu Bin canceled the franchise contract with them, but continued to sell crispy potatoes, which shows that his business was not bad, but he just wanted to get rid of the restrictions of the franchise and make more money.

But this also means that Liu Bin can no longer get goods from the central kitchen.

He needs to prepare everything from seasoning recipes to ingredients himself.

If he dares to do this, he is either a fool, or he is really sure that he can replicate the taste and make delicious products without the supply from the central kitchen of "Maple Flavor Guoba Potato".

Jiang Feng realized that this matter was not simple, so he said: "Where are you? Let's go over and take a look."

"Okay, I'll drive over to pick you up right away."

Finished the phone call with Tang Wenjun.

Jiang Feng glanced at Chen Jingyu, who was still eating grilled squid, and asked, "I'm going to do something with Tang Wenjun later. Do you want to come with us?"

Chen Jingyu took a bite of the spicy squid and blinked her beautiful eyes: "Will I disturb you if I go there?"

"will not."

"Then I'm going too."

Ever since.

When Tang Wenjun drove to the snack street to pick someone up, he found that Jiang Feng was actually with Chen Jingyu, and immediately saluted: "Good afternoon, Director Chen."

"Hello."

This is the benefit of being a financial director.

Even if Jiang Feng brought Chen Jingyu with him, no one would find it strange because Chen Jingyu is also a member of the company.

Although she was more like a child watching the fun.

After getting in the car.

Tang Wenjun immediately complained indignantly:

"Liu Bin is so heartless! When he first opened the shop, we gave him so much help, waived all kinds of fees, and even personally coached him when business was slow in the beginning. Now that business is booming, he's kicked us out and wants to go it alone."

Jiang Feng was not as excited as Tang Wenjun about this.

As a veteran, he has seen many franchisees working on their own.

After all, when doing business, who doesn’t want to make more money?

Of course, Jiang Feng also understood Tang Wenjun very well. After all, when Liu Bin first opened the store, business was not good, and Tang Wenjun made several trips to help, all for free.

This is all outside of the contract.

As a result, Liu Bin's business is now doing well, so he chooses to go it alone.

It would be strange if Tang Wenjun was in a good mood.

As a brand, when encountering this phenomenon, the first reaction is definitely to investigate the problem.

So Jiang Feng made a rational analysis: "Although the rice crust potatoes are simple to make and require no technical skills, they lack our secret seasoning, and the taste is at least 30% lower. He dared to do it alone rashly, so he probably has some other reason."

The numerous imitators of the "Potato Crisps" on the streets before did not make the business of "Maple Flavor Potato Crisps" worse. Instead, it became more and more prosperous.

On the one hand, it is inseparable from the careful management of Jiang Feng and Tang Wenjun.

On the other hand, there is the exclusive recipe of "Maple Flavored Crispy Potatoes".

Fried potatoes are a very common food and are very easy to make.

But how to make fried potatoes delicious and stand out from the competition requires a recipe.

The secret recipe for the rice crust potato sauce in Jiang Feng's hand was something he learned and improved many times.

Not long after.

The group arrived at their destination.

Tang Wenjun parked the car on the side of the road.

Jiang Feng got out of the car and took a look.

Liu Bin’s Guoba Potato Shop is located near a school.

It was the afternoon school dismissal time, and the store entrance was full of students.

The only difference is that the sign on the door changed from "Maple Flavor Guoba Potatoes" to "Abin Guoba Potatoes".

“Business is pretty good…”

Jiang Feng observed for a while, then instructed Tang Wenjun: "Go buy a few."

"it is good."

Tang Wenjun immediately went over to queue up.

Because it was school time, which was also the peak period for these snack shops, there were a lot of people queuing up.

After waiting for a long time, Tang Wenjun returned from a hard-working job and brought back several plastic bags.

"Spicy, sweet and sour, sweet and sour spicy, I bought all three flavors."

These are the three main flavors of Guoba Potato, and the best-selling ones are sweet, sour, spicy and hot.

The three of them tasted the various flavors of rice crust potatoes in Liu Bin’s store.

As an outsider, Chen Jingyu naturally couldn't taste it and tell the difference.

But Jiang Feng and Tang Wenjun looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

"No...this taste feels so similar to ours..." Tang Wenjun was shocked.

Jiang Feng frowned, picked up a piece of potato with a toothpick, put it in his mouth and tasted it carefully, then commented:
"It does resemble it, but I can tell it's not our recipe... If those vendors out there can only replicate 60 to 70 percent of the taste of our rice-crust potatoes, this one's probably 80 to 90 percent."

"Oh my god, no wonder Liu Bin dares to work alone, so this is the case..."

Tang Wenjun was very shocked.

He didn't expect that he actually figured out the recipe for rice crust potatoes for Liu Bin.

Although it cannot be replicated 100%, it can imitate about 80 to 90 percent of the flavor, which is already very scary.

Just as Jiang Feng and Tang Wenjun were discussing, a middle-aged man in a blue shirt came to the store door, followed by two people.

"Look, you two, this is our rice-crust potatoes. You can tell with your own eyes whether our business is good or not... Those maple-flavored rice-crust potatoes are similar to ours. They're unscrupulously making money from your supply, but we're different. We offer 12,000 yuan, and not only can you join, we'll also teach you the recipe."

The man in the blue shirt was introducing the store and the franchise fees to the two people behind him.

This person is Liu Bin.
