Chapter 300: Knowing what it means to communicate without a white man, but to talk and laugh with a great scholar(1/2)

 Suddenly, after having an unexpected intimate relationship with Kim Soo-young.

Unable to bear Jin Xiuying's continuous pestering, Cao Zhiqiang shied away from the fact that he still had many things to do, and hurriedly left the small foreign building.

After leaving, Cao Zhiqiang did not go back to any place because he was afraid of being discovered. Instead, he went directly to the Peking Hotel to get a room, took a good bath and slept by himself.

The next day, when Cao Zhiqiang got up, he still felt sore and uncomfortable in his waist and back, so he continued to hold it in in the Peking Hotel, recovering his strength while writing lyrics.

By the way, I don't know if it was because of overworking yesterday, but he signed in a good thing today, three hundred-year-old northeastern wild ginseng.

Products produced by the system must be genuine and must be of high value.

But Cao Zhiqiang feels that he needs this more now.

Of course, Cao Zhiqiang did not eat this "hundred-year-old ginseng" randomly, but decided to go back and find an expert to identify it first, and then decide whether to give it away, collect it, or eat it himself.

As for selling it for money, he never considered it.

Because ginseng cannot be sold at a high price in China at this time, the key point is that Cao Zhiqiang is not too short of money at this time, so there is no need to sell it for money.

In this way, he rested until the afternoon. Cao Zhiqiang felt that his body was almost recovered, and he finally went out to show his face instead of hiding in the hotel room with the phone remote control.

First, he went to the nearby "Shiweitian" restaurant.

It was not lunch time when Cao Zhiqiang went there, and there was only one day off for Labor Day during this period. May 2nd was a normal working day, but the hotel was still overcrowded.

After asking Cao Jiajia, I found out that many people who come here are idlers from the capital, and most of them are repeat customers.

The reason, besides He Yuzhu's good cooking skills, the most important reason is that there is air conditioning here.

You know, at this time in May, the weather was already quite hot, and many people wore half-length sleeves and waved cattail fans.

As for air conditioning, it is a scarce product throughout the capital. Generally, it is only available in big hotels. Ordinary restaurants do not have air conditioning at all.

But Cao Zhiqiang originally installed air conditioning in the restaurant, so after the guests came here and felt the coolness of the air conditioning, they immediately fell in love with it and even used it as a leisure place, where they came to chat whenever they had nothing to do.

Of course, these people who come to the restaurant to enjoy the coolness and chatting do not order anything. They often avoid the meal. When they come, they order a few side dishes, then bring their own wine, and eat the side dishes while drinking.

All kinds of idle chatter.

Because everyone had indeed ordered the food, and the meal did not occupy a seat, and the large number of people could still make it seem popular, so Cao Jiajia did not chase people away.

"It's right not to drive people away." Cao Zhiqiang nodded and said, "When a new restaurant opens, the key is popularity and reputation.

With Uncle He here, of course the taste of the food is no problem, but other than that, it’s the dining environment and service quality.

Of course, the dining environment is excellent. In addition to the decoration, the air conditioner is also a great tool. Nowadays, there are only a few restaurants in Peiping that can install air conditioning.

In this case, we must pay attention to the quality of service and not offend the guests casually.

Of course, you can’t spoil them all the time, otherwise, they will sit there all day with a side dish and a pot of tea, which is not a problem.”

"How about we learn from the Western restaurants in big hotels and set a minimum consumption?" Cao Jiajia said, "When it's meal time, each table sets a minimum consumption. If it doesn't meet the standard, it won't be served?"

Cao Zhiqiang shook his head: "Private rooms are OK, but dine-in is not. Because if you do this in dine-in, everyone will feel very uncomfortable and think you look down on others."

"How can you look down on people?" Cao Jiajia said, "Besides, isn't the same thing true for restaurants in big hotels?"

"A big hotel is a big hotel, but we are just a restaurant. It's different." Cao Zhiqiang shook his head.

"Then what do you think we should do?" Cao Jiajia said.

"Simple." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "Can't we just open later?"

"Opening later?" Cao Jiajia was stunned.

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang smiled.

"Why do you think you are so diligent and open the business so early in the morning?

Let me tell you, breakfast is tiring and unprofitable, so just don’t make breakfast.

From now on we will only cook lunch and dinner.

That is to say, at nine o'clock, the waiters start to go to work and make various preparations, such as cleaning the room, preparing ingredients, etc.

It officially opens for business at 11:30 am and stays open until it closes at 2 pm.

After that, it’s time for everyone to settle accounts, clean up, have a rest, and wait until 5:30 in the evening to open the business again and make dinner again.

The dinner time can be longer and last until nine o'clock in the evening. In summer, it can be appropriately extended to ten o'clock in the evening.

In addition, the original cheap side dishes and tea were replaced with more expensive side dishes and tea.

For example, a pot of tea now costs 30 cents, so a pot of tea costs one yuan. Of course, the tea leaves will also be exchanged for better ones.

The cheapest side dish used to be, a plate of pickled cucumbers was 10 cents a plate, but if you change it to something else, it would be at least 50 cents a plate.

And it must be stipulated that drinks, tea, side dishes and rice are not only sold, but to order these separately, you must order a main dish.

That is to say, if you just want a pot of tea and a plate of pickles to enjoy the air conditioning, then you should at least order a main dish.

The price of the main dishes is also increased for me. After analyzing the specific situation, I will increase the price by at least 50%!

Of course, I replaced the dishes, bowls and chopsticks with higher standards, which looked high-end, so they felt that eating here was worth their money.

In short, Shiweitian is positioned as a high-end restaurant with special features, not a roadside fly shop, nor something that ordinary people can afford.

We do not impose a minimum consumption, but through clear price tags and high-end services, people who come here to eat will understand that if they order a dish and have a meal, they will spend at least five yuan!

If you think you can afford the five yuan, then come and eat.

If you think it’s too expensive and not cost-effective, you won’t come.

I said this, do you understand, sister?"

Cao Jiajia blinked: "Isn't this bad? Many people have come to eat. Will there be any problems if the price is changed rashly?"

"What's the problem?" Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly.

"If anyone asks, just tell them that the previous price was the trial price and it was a big discount for Labor Day.

The big discount is only for three days, and after three days it will be changed back to the original price.

In other words, we will hang up the price change sign tomorrow to let everyone know that we only have a big discount for the first three days of opening, and will change it back to the original price the day after tomorrow.

Sister, you have to understand that as long as the ingredients are high-end, the chef’s skills are good, and the food is delicious and delicious, there will definitely be repeat customers!

People who can come here to eat high-end food don't care about the price at all.

Those who care about price don't care about your cooking skills or what kind of cuisine you are, they just want to get the best deal.

So, by raising prices, improving the quality of tableware, and improving service attitude, we are raising the value here in disguise.

By the way, as for the waitresses, I asked them to put on uniform makeup, put on a uniform red high-slit cheongsam, and wear high heels.

You should also change your titles. When you meet a man, call him sir, when you meet a woman, call her ma’am. Don’t call me gay master.

By the way, let's recruit two more young, fair and beautiful women with a height of 1.7 meters.

There is no need to do anything else to recruit these two women. They just wear cheongsam and stand at the door when the business opens. Everyone who comes will bow and smile together and shout welcome!

This is called a welcome girl!

With the welcome girl, you can naturally scare away a large number of idle people.

If there is another idle person who comes over to order a dish and occupies the table, find a waitress and stand in front of him, salute him, and look at him.

And if you have anything to do, go over and ask, Sir, what else do you want?

After going back and forth like this, unless you are really shameless, it is impossible to stay here and not leave.

If you really have that kind of two-skinned person, please call me again and I will find professionals to deal with them.

Just do as I say, I guarantee you’ll be right!”

Cao Jiajia frowned: "Zhiqiang, what you said is inappropriate, isn't it? Besides, can Uncle He agree?"

"Why is it inappropriate?" Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "Sister, you don't really think that my hotel is making money from individual customers, right?

No, you are wrong. From the beginning, I never thought about making money from these individual customers.

The target customers of my hotel are the middle and senior managers of state-owned enterprises and government institutions, as well as intellectuals who are not short of money but pursue quality, status and enjoyment."

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang looked around, then lowered his voice in Cao Jiajia's ear:

"To be honest, just the dinner we hosted for the leaders of our Hongguang Machinery Factory and its fraternal units, as well as Uncle He's Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant, was enough for our hotel.

In addition to factories, I am also familiar with many cultural institutions. It is no problem to say hello to them later and ask them to come and have a meal.

But those people are all respectable, and they are very particular about the dining environment, service and food taste.

Although we have private rooms here, it would not be appropriate if they find that the canteen is always crowded with idle people after they arrive.

Therefore, it is better to offend the idle than the rich.

How much money do people have now, and how many meals can they eat?

The leaders of those units are different. Most of them can be reimbursed with public funds and don't care about the price at all.

Of course, this also has disadvantages, that is, it is easy to keep accounts and default on accounts.

But other hotels may worry about not getting their money back, but we are different.

Just because of the plaque in our hotel, no one dares to default on their debt, understand?"
