There is another very important reason. Since the advent of mobile phones, many food shops and bars have launched take-out services. Regular customers only need to make a phone call and the food will be delivered to your door.
Of course, because of the store space and manpower, the delivery range is usually not too far.
High-end restaurants like Xinyuexuan and Liuliting are exceptions. After all, given their status, they naturally have no shortage of errand boys. As long as the customers are patient, their delivery range even covers the entire Liyue Harbor.
With these precedents, the people of Liyue have long been accustomed to the existence of takeout. Starting from this aspect, there will be minimal resistance and it will also attract more people to experience it personally, making promotion easier.
He did what he said and soon immersed himself in the life of a programmer, and time passed quickly.
at the same time.
Ningguang was not idle either.
Lady Tianquan is undoubtedly a person of action. Su Che had not walked far when she called her trusted secretary to start lobbying various people.
Liyue's administrative system is complicated. On the surface, the Seven Stars are the most respected. Among the Seven Stars, Ningguang is secretly the leader. The so-called Heavenly Authority symbolizes power and law.
But that doesn't mean Ningguang can ignore other people's opinions and act recklessly.
After all, Prince Yan is not dead yet, and there are many immortals hiding in Jueyunjian. There is also the saying of "Seven Stars and Eight Gates" in Liyue. Not to mention whether Ningguang has the ability to turn Liyue into her own place of authority, if she dares to have such an idea, she will be regarded as disrespectful to Prince Yan and will be demoted to the ground immediately.
The issue of online payment involves a lot of things, so we need to at least give these people a hint and also find out some information.
……
The last ray of sunset light disappeared faintly in the sky, revealing a little warmth.
"It's done!"
Su Che was in high spirits. Looking at the light blue application icon in front of him, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The first food delivery platform in Liyue Harbor’s history was finally born under his leadership.
This kind of software is actually not complicated to write, the difficult part is handling the various details.
For example, how does the delivery guy take orders, how can he locate the address of the store and the customer... These problems must be solved carefully. If any mistakes are made, it will definitely have an adverse impact on the large-scale promotion of online payments in the future.
Fortunately, with the help of the system, although some technical problems were difficult, he was eventually able to overcome them.
"Phew, I've really worked hard on myself."
Touching his rumbling stomach, Su Che sighed. Apart from having a meal with Ningguang this morning, he had not eaten or drunk anything for the rest of the time.
I didn’t realize it when I was immersed in the code just now.
When I came to my senses, I almost fainted.
I looked up at the sky outside the window and it was already evening.
Su Che decided to reward himself.
Fifteen minutes later.
"Brother Su! Long time no see! What would you like to eat today?"
As soon as I entered the door of Wanmin Hall, I ran into a full of energy and a little cook.
Su Che greeted Xiang Ling with a smile, "Long time no see", then found a secluded corner to sit down and ordered the dishes skillfully.
"One serving of golden shrimp balls, one serving of boiled black-back sea bass, and a plate of cold-mixed qingxin. Could you please give me more rice?"
"Are you alone?" Xiangling looked back and did not see Sister Ganyu or Miss Keqing, which made her feel a little strange.
The dishes at Wanmin Hall are very filling, with two meat dishes, one vegetable dish and a big bowl of rice, which are enough to fill up a worker who has worked hard at the dock all day.
She remembered that Brother Su's appetite was not big.
After hesitating for a while, the young cook said tactfully: "Brother Su, you ordered too many dishes. If you can't finish them... it's not good to waste food."
"Do not worry."
The little girl put her hands behind her back, looking so embarrassed but still trying to persuade him was so adorable.
Su Che couldn't help but ruffled the girl's short blue hair and smiled generously: "Don't talk about this little thing. I'm tired after a day. I can eat even if you put a cow in front of me."
"Okay, go quickly. I'm not here to just have a meal with you today. I have a big business deal to discuss later."
"Oh, okay……"
Since people have said so, Xiangling naturally won't be aggressive.
But she was a little curious about what the so-called "big business" meant.
The young cook couldn't keep her words to herself, so she said, "Brother Su, can you tell me the news about the big business first?"
Su Che did not explain, but deliberately put on a stern face: "What did you call me?"
"Brother Su..." Xiangling paused for a moment, then suddenly an idea flashed through her mind, and she changed the subject: "I see! Brother Su! Can you tell me about the big business? Can you? Can you?"
"Well, children can be taught."
Su Che touched her head with satisfaction and called her "little brother" or something like that... It seemed that everyone who was not familiar with him would call him that when they saw him.
Although it was a good thing that he looked younger, he was also troubled by being too young. What on earth was wrong with him?
"Hey hey hey~"
Xiangling was a little embarrassed, but her big, round, spiritual eyes were particularly bright: "Brother Su, Brother Su, please tell me, please tell me~"
After all, she is just a young girl who has not experienced much of the world.
Because of the phone, she already had a good impression of Su Che, so she changed her tone without any hesitation, and even her behavior of acting coquettishly seemed particularly natural.
Su Che spread his hands: "Sorry, it's a secret."
Xiangling: "..."
Wow! She took it back! How come I didn't realize this guy had such a bad character before!
I tricked her into changing her mind, but you're still keeping her in suspense!
Seeing Xiang Ling's angry look, Su Che thought for a moment and said seriously: "It's not that I'm teasing you on purpose. I just want to tell you that this world is very big, and there are many things you can't imagine, such as..."
"Like what?" Xiangling didn't want to pay any attention to this bad guy, but she couldn't control her curiosity and pricked up her ears.
"For example," Su Che smiled slightly, "You think I'm going to give you an example."
Xiangling: "..."
The young cook snorted coldly, stamped her feet, and decided to put more Jueyun peppers in the boiled black-backed sea bass later. It would be super spicy! It would kill this bad guy who cheated on her feelings!
After teasing Xiao Xiangling, Su Che was in a good mood.
It is evening now, but there are not many customers tonight. Perhaps it is because most people have not yet got off work, and even the pedestrians on the street are very scarce.
It's inevitable that it feels a bit empty.
Fortunately, he didn't have to wait too long. Xiangling had already brought the dishes he ordered. Su Che started eating without hesitation and devoured them.
The young cook did not leave. Instead, she found a seat and sat down. She didn't say anything and just kept looking at him.
After Su Che had eaten and drunk his fill, Xiangling could not wait to urge him:
"Alright, alright! Brother Su, now that we've eaten and drunk, you can finally tell me what that big business you're talking about is, right?"
This time Su Che didn't keep anyone in suspense.
It's fine to just joke around a bit, but if you continue teasing the little cook, it might end up being bad if you make her angry.
If you can't make sense, I'll beat you up. Warning! .jpg
He pondered for a while, and after choosing his words simply, he said, "Xiangling, does Wanmin Hall still provide take-out service?"
"Of course. Ever since we got mobile phones, many of my regular customers who live nearby will call and order food when they're hungry. It's so convenient. What's wrong with that?"
Xiangling didn't quite understand what he meant.
"I have created a food delivery platform recently, so I want to ask you if you would like to consider opening a store on it?"
Su Che went straight to the point.
"Nowadays, most restaurants in Liyue Harbor have their own takeout business, but it is too messy. Most of them rely on their own staff to deliver the food, and sometimes they are short of manpower. You should have a deep understanding of this."
"Uh-huh!"
Xiangling nodded vigorously, that’s right!
Take-out certainly makes it more convenient for customers to order food, but Wanmin Tang’s store is not very big, and there are only a few waiters. It’s busy enough just to deal with customers who come to the store in person, not to mention freeing up staff to deliver food to the customers.
Master Mao even hired a few more assistants for this purpose, and their salaries alone were a considerable expense every month.
It is true that Wanmin Tang’s business is good, but they are a small, affordable shop and the dishes they sell are not expensive, and they live by small profits but quick turnover.
There are quite a few customers who order takeout, but they are still a minority compared to the customers who come to eat in person.
In order to cater to these small groups of customers, Master Mao can only hire a few more helpers. However, the returns are not proportional to the profits. Master Mao is even considering whether he should find an opportunity to stop the delivery service.
"Therefore, food delivery platforms can play a very important role in this regard."
Su Che smiled and analyzed: "Merchants join the platform, customers open the platform, and after placing an order, the delivery guy from the platform will pick up the goods from the store and deliver them to the customer."
"The whole process is convenient for both merchants and customers. You don't have to hire a few more guys to deliver food. You only need to pay a little errand fee. In addition, you can get more customers. How about that? Isn't it great?"
"It sounds like... it does seem to be the case."
Xiangling was a little hesitant. She had also heard her father complain that the monthly salary expenses were getting bigger and bigger. If it was true as Su Che said, joining a food delivery platform could save manpower and resources and increase customer sources, she couldn't seem to find a reason to refuse.
No matter how she thought about it, she felt that she had made a profit, and the little cook lowered her head a little embarrassedly.
Well, she had misunderstood Brother Su. She was willing to give him such a good opportunity. The other party clearly treated her as a friend. What made her feel ashamed was that she had secretly put an extra Jueyun pepper in the dish just because of a momentary quarrel. It was really wrong.
"Of course it is."
Su Che smiled and said, "So, does Xiangling want to join?"
"Of course I'll join!"
The young cook nodded vigorously, and then suddenly thought of something, and asked in confusion: "Then, Brother Su, how do you calculate the errand fee you mentioned?"
If the errand fee is expensive, she may want to discuss it with her dad.
“It depends on the distance.”
Su Che pondered and said, "If the customer is very close to the store, it will be about one to four or five Moras. If the customer is far away and the deliveryman needs to run all over the city, then the delivery fee will be very expensive, but it will not exceed fifteen Moras. Of course, the delivery fee will be charged separately for dishes that are too large."
That's really not expensive.
A meat dish at Wanmin Hall costs about twenty Mora. In comparison, the errand fee of only a single digit is really too cheap, and the guests should not be too resistant.
Of course, it is impossible for a food delivery platform to make money entirely from errand fees.
So Su Che added: "Except for the errand fee, the platform will take a 10% commission for each order. Of course, in order to give back to the merchants, the platform will also launch various discount activities in the future, and the merchants do not need to pay for it."
This commission is really generous compared to those food delivery platforms in the past.
"Ten percent commission?"
Xiangling was a little hesitant, but after thinking about it, she realized that if Brother Su's food delivery platform could really be promoted, with such an official integrated platform, there would definitely be a lot of people using it.
Once there are a lot of users, all the merchants in Liyue Harbor will probably try their best to join.
Since you enjoy a huge customer base, it is normal to pay some profits.
So she nodded quickly and said with full energy: "I have no problem, Brother Su, I am willing to join!"
"Don't you need to ask Master Mao again?"
"Oh, no need. Dad listens to me."
Xiangling chuckled, pouted, and looked at him pitifully: "But, Brother Su, I trust you so much, you must not cheat me! Otherwise... otherwise... otherwise I will make the pot crust spit fire!"
"Lu!" A pale yellow unknown creature suddenly appeared from somewhere and called out to him.
"Hehe, just put your heart at ease." Su Che laughed. Although he was a little despicable sometimes, he was generally very noble and upright. Was it necessary for him to deliberately trick a little girl?
What's more...there are so many ways for food delivery platforms to make profits.
Apart from the commission and delivery fee, do you want your store to rank higher? Do you want your store to appear in the most conspicuous position? Do you want your store advertisement to be on the headlines 24 hours a day?
Yeah, just think about it.
As long as someone wants it, he will never have to worry about not making money.
Of course, the most urgent task is to quickly develop "Ele.me".
With only Wanmintang joining, it was obviously not enough. Su Che originally planned to go to other stores to discuss cooperation, but after thinking about it, he looked at Xiangling beside him:
"Xiang Ling, I have a new deal I want to discuss with you. Are you interested?"
