"It's OK."

"I'm ready, too."

Su Min and Chen Linjiao nodded and looked at Lu Hao very seriously.

Both of them couldn't wait to draw something from Lu Hao.

The rice wine stall business was something Lu Hao encouraged them to do. It was very good. At the beginning, I sold an enamel basin of rice wine a day, with two enamel basins behind it, and now three enamel basins.

Moving from a roadside stall to a department store that can shelter from wind and rain, there are fixed stalls, the business is good, and there are many old customers.

Repeated customers are the best affirmation to businessmen.

"Okay, I'll continue." Lu Hao nodded, "For flour to make steamed buns and buns, most of the flour used on the market are two types of flour, one is standard flour and the other is Fuqiang flour. If you two want to make steamed buns and buns, use Fuqiang flour."

Standard flour is a flour with a higher powder yield in the case of shortage of grain. It is not as fine as the rich and strong powder. 100 kilograms of wheat can grind out about 85 kilograms of standard flour. The flour between high-gluten flour and low-gluten flour is also called medium-gluten flour.

Fuqiang flour is more refined and has a lower powder yield. 100 kilograms of wheat can grind about 72 kilograms of flour, which is high-gluten flour.

49 years ago, domestic flour was distinguished by No. 1, No. 2, No. 3 and No. 4. After the 1950s, this brand was abolished and changed to first, second and third grade flours, and named Fuqiang brand, construction brand, and production brand. The quality was equivalent to the original No. 2, 3, and 4 powder, so Fuqiang powder was named.

The steamed buns and buns made by Fuqiang flour should taste slightly better, but in terms of nutritional value, they are actually not as high as the standard flour.

Both can make steamed buns and buns, but the steamed buns and buns on the market mostly use standard flour. One is cheaper, and the other is easier to make steamed buns and buns.

"Standard flour is cheaper, 38 cents per catty, while Fuqiang flour is more expensive, and 43 cents per catty." Su Min said, "It is difficult to make steamed buns and buns, but it is better to chew."

She has also made steamed buns at home.

The price of standard powder and Fuqiang flour per pound seems to be small, only 5 cents apart, and you can make steamed buns. The amount of flour used in buns is very large, so the cost of using Fuqiang flour will be much higher.

"It is difficult to make steamed buns and buns with Fuqiang flour. It is cheaper and expensive than standard flour. There are few people using it to make steamed buns and buns. This is a disadvantage, but it is also a characteristic." Lu Hao transferred his experience to the two.

"There are already many small vendors on the market who are selling steamed buns and buns. There is a lot of competition. If you two want to do it, you are a latecomer. You must come up with new tricks to be competitive."

He looked at Su Min and Chen Linjiao, "Use Fuqiang flour to make steamed buns and buns, and then write 'Fuqiang flour steamed buns and meat buns in front of the stall, better and more chewy', to show its characteristics and attract customers more. You must be good at demonstrating your own advantages and highlighting different aspects."

Highness is the truth!

The raw materials used are expensive, but the final product is the same price. Customers will only feel that the boss is conscientious!

"I have you two covered in the department store, and there are no competitors, but what about other places? It must be the case. In the future, you two go to other places to open a store. When the business is good, someone will also open a store next to you. Therefore, you must highlight your own advantages and make different things." Lu Hao pointed out.

"Open a store in another place?" Chen Linjiao asked.

Lu Hao looked at her, "Yes, build a branch, open a store in the Qiaokou District and Manjiang City. You two are female bosses, Boss Su and Boss Chen!"

What he said made Chen Linjiao and Su Min feel so irritated.

My heart is surging.

"How many steamed buns can a pound of flour make?" Lu Hao asked.

"It depends on how much a steamed bun is." Su Min said, "A pound of flour can be about one and a half pounds after fermentation. The steamed buns can be big and small. The big ones can be made 10, and the small ones can be made 15."

Lu Hao frowned slightly.

He is calculating costs and gross profit.

The cost of a pound of rich and strong flour is 43 cents, and a steamed bun is priced at 5 cents, and 10 pieces are 5 cents. According to this number, a pound of flour makes a big steamed bun, and the gross profit is only 7 cents.

This is gross profit. If labor, water, electricity, and stall rent are removed, the profit will be even lower.

To make small steamed buns, you can make 15 pieces, each for 5 cents, and sell for 75 cents. The gross profit has increased a lot, with 22 cents.

"Make small steamed buns, rectangular ones, don't make them round ones." Lu Hao gave an idea.

Even if you make small steamed buns, one actually weighs 50 grams. Then make it into a rectangle and change the appearance to make up for the impression caused by reducing weight.

"Okay." Su Min nodded.

"I have remembered the number of people who come over to ask if there are any steamed buns and buns sold in the past few days. There are about 50 people coming here to ask a day." Chen Linjiao said.

She made money by selling rice wine, and she became addicted to eating the marrow and was also deliberately concerned about these aspects.

"There are still many people who are embarrassed to ask, just look at it and leave. I guess they should want to buy steamed buns and buns, but they left when they saw that there was no sale." She said, "There are many such customers."

"This is for sure. Just like an iceberg, only one tenth of what is seen when exposed to the sea, and nine out of tenths are still under the sea." Lu Hao affirmed, "Food is the most important thing for people, and there is no shortage of customers for premature stores at any time."

The important thing is to defeat other competitors.

Su Min and Chen Linjiao got together and wrote and painted in the small notebook.

"Honey, do you have bamboo trunks selling steamed buns in the department store?" Su Min asked suddenly.

"Some, and it's very big, it's very suitable to steam buns and buns." Lu Hao nodded.

These tiles are made of bamboo. They are made from goods from the countryside and made by bamboo craftsmen little by little, and the quality is very good.

Not only bamboo trunks, but also dustpans, bamboo baskets, bamboo brushes, etc., there are also many in department stores.

These goods are fed from the countryside through the Municipal Supply and Marketing Cooperative, and are transported by the Municipal Supply and Marketing Cooperative Local Specialties Company and sold at Wanjia Department Store.

The sales are pretty good.

"I don't have to find a place to buy it, just buy it from a department store." Su Min said, "Wait a minute, Chen Linjiao and I will go back early and make some steamed buns and buns first. Husband, try it and see how it tastes."

"This is treating me as a guinea pig," Lu Hao said, "Where do I disagree?"

"You have to agree if you don't agree." Su Min looked at him playfully, "You have to ask if you want it, and you have to ask if you don't want it. You can't regret it. Who told you to be my husband?"

"You should be so strong in other aspects." Lu Hao said with a smile, "Okay, then I'll be this little mouse. You go back to make steamed buns and buns. I'll try it when you're done. By the way, there are also some in the tea shop. Take some back to make tea eggs."

"I want to be a guinea pig, too." Nini hurriedly raised her hand.

"Okay, you are also a guinea pig. We are both guinea pigs." Lu Hao touched her head.

"I am a teenage mouse, dad, you are a big white mouse." Nini corrected.

Su Min and Chen Linjiao stood up and cleaned the rice wine stall. The woman did this job in detail and quickly, and she cleaned it up in a short time.

Very neat.
Chapter completed!
