Su Xiaomeng sat next to Ren Yufei, replacing the waiter, and while serving everyone, she also started chatting with everyone while eating.
Yang Huilan said midway: "Boss Su, your hot pot tastes really good, it's even stronger than the hot pot in Bashu.
To be honest, our shop owner and I have thought about making hot pot before, but after researching for a long time, we just couldn’t come up with a delicious hot pot base, so we finally started making breakfast.”
Su Xiaomeng smiled and said: "This hot pot base was actually improved by Brother Fang.
Speaking of which, the person who pretended to have food poisoning just came here because of the hot pot base recipe.
They used the excuse of food poisoning to coerce me into handing over the hot pot base recipe."
She told the story of the woman surnamed Zhang who asked for the hot pot base recipe and said: "The hot pot recipe itself was provided by Brother Fang. This time it is thanks to Brother Fang. Otherwise, I really don't know what to do."
After hearing this, Yang Huilan rolled her eyes, looked at Fang Lin, and said, "Xiao Lin, you prepared this hot pot base? You are really capable."
Fang Lin smiled lightly and said: "I just happen to know a little bit, it's not worth mentioning." xdw8
Yang Huilan picked up a glass of wine, came to Fang Lin and said, "Xiao Lin, actually your second uncle and I also thought about doing hot pot catering.
If we close the breakfast restaurant in another place and turn it into a hot pot restaurant, can you provide us with the hot pot recipe?
And can you also provide vegetables from our village to me and your second uncle?"
This hot pot tastes really delicious. If there are more vegetables from Fenghuang Village, it will be no wonder that the business is not good.
The popularity of Ladingtian Hotpot City is the most vivid example.
Seeing that it was profitable, Yang Huilan naturally wanted a share of the pie.
While saying this, Yang Huilan winked at Fang Baojun. Fang Baojun understood and came over to toast Fang Lin.
The couple had long realized that the prosperity of the eldest brother's family was all due to Fang Lin.
And Fang Lin is now also the real person in charge of the eldest brother's family. Instead of talking to Fang Baoguo about this kind of thing, it would be better to ask Fang Lin directly.
Seeing Fang Lin silent, Yang Huilan said: "Xiao Lin, we are doing it in Chuzhou Province. Even if the taste is the same, we won't take away Boss Su's business. You don't have to worry about this."
Su Xiaomeng quickly waved her hands and said: "It doesn't matter to me, the hot pot recipe itself belongs to Brother Fang, and whoever he gives it to is his freedom.
Besides, you are Brother Fang's relatives, so speaking of it, I am an outsider."
Wang Xiu'e snorted: "Xiao Lin, don't embarrass yourself just because they are your second uncle and second aunt.
You have to think carefully about whether there will be any impact if you agree to this matter.
Your second uncle and second aunt made breakfast for seven or eight years, and their lives were nourishing.
This sudden career change may not be a good thing, you understand, right? Don't do bad things with good intentions.
If the hot pot restaurant loses all its money, then people might blame you."
Fang Baojun and Yang Huilan's expressions changed, and Yang Huilan hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, you are worrying too much. It is our own decision to change our career. Xiaolin can support us, and we are not grateful enough.
Even if we lose, we are the ones asking for it, so how dare we blame Xiao Lin."
When Fang Lin heard this, he suddenly looked at Su Xiaomeng and said, "Xiaomeng, I remember you said before that you planned to turn the hot pot restaurant into a chain restaurant, right?"
Su Xiaomeng was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, the business of this store is very good. During the peak period, there are dozens of people queuing up.
I thought about finding a good location to open another store, and the business would be good.
It’s just that we don’t have enough funds on hand right now, so we have to wait for a while.”
Fang Lin nodded and said: "Chain catering is an indispensable path for the development of the catering industry.
Since we want to do this, we have to think long-term. As long as the business is good, we can slowly spread to surrounding counties, cities and provinces."
Having said this, he looked at Fang Baojun and Yang Huilan and said, "Second uncle and second aunt, you can make hot pot if you want, but you have to do it according to my ideas.
I can let you run a chain store in another place first."
"A chain store? Boss Su's chain store in Spicy Dingtian Hotpot City?"
Yang Huilan hesitated for a moment and said: "It's not impossible to do chain stores, but how to do it specifically?
Your second uncle and I have never been exposed to chain stores before, so we have the final say in operation and management, right?"
Fang Lin stretched out his hand to invite the two of them to sit down first, and then said: "This matter cannot be settled at once, but I can briefly talk about the general direction now.
First of all, I don’t think the name Ladingtian Hotpot City is very good, so I need to change it.”
With that said, he looked at Su Xiaomeng and asked, "What do you think?"
Su Xiaomeng nodded and said with a smile: "I have no objection. This name is a bit rustic. In fact, I have also thought about whether I should change it to another one.
After all, we haven’t started officially building a chain yet, so it’s the right time.”
Fang Lin nodded and said: "Then the brand design and decoration style of the chain store should be unified, so that no matter which chain store the guests dine in, the atmosphere they feel is similar.
As for the operation and management of chain stores, we can also follow the methods of other chain restaurants.
This can be solved by hiring a talent with relevant experience.”
After saying this, he looked at Fang Baojun and Yang Huilan and said: "When the chain store is built, it will be a joint-stock company. I will provide the capital. Second uncle, you and Su Xiaomeng will each hold 10 points of shares. No matter what the chain store does in the future,
At this point, this shareholding remains unchanged.
Of course, if you want to exit in the future, this share can also be sold and transferred according to the market value of the chain store at that time.
But when the time comes, it can only be transferred to me or Su Xiaomeng, and I won’t accept anyone else’s intervention.”
Fang Baojun and Yang Huilan were both a little confused. They just wanted to get Fang Lin's hot pot base recipe and build their own hot pot restaurant. Why did they suddenly become working for Fang Lin?
Ten share points seems a bit small.
However, since they didn’t have to contribute any capital, they seemed to be taking advantage.
Fang Baojun and Yang Huilan looked at each other, both weighing.
On the other hand, Su Xiaomeng was so happy that she asked in surprise: "Brother Fang, are you really going to fund this?"
She had thought about handing over the ownership of the hot pot restaurant to Fang Lin before. After all, their family owed Fang Lin a lot.
Whether it was Fang Lin helping her repay the loan shark, helping her father cure lung cancer, or even buying expensive medicinal materials for her father's health, she remembered every one of them.
Now, she owes Fang Lin too much, too much.
If it weren't for Fang Lin, her life might have been dark at this time.
Later, she thought of opening a chain store. The reason why she told Fang Lin was because she wanted to give Fang Lin a part of the profits.
Now that Fang Lin plans to invest and take the lead in building this chain store, this is exactly what she wants.
