Lu Jing smiled apologetically and said, "The phone is out of battery."
Naturally, there was no cell phone signal when he was in the Earth's Core Gourd. He had used it many times because his cell phone was out of battery.
It's already ten o'clock now, which is indeed a bit late.
"Hurry in and be the interviewer first. I won't be confident if you don't come." Qiao Ran urged Lu Jing and walked through the door.
"Don't worry, I'll take a look at the renovation first."
Lu Jing walked in to do a lot of decoration inside the store.
After looking around, he was very satisfied. The drawings were all designed according to his requirements. They were basically correct, and the actual decoration effect was even better.
Mainly based on retro style elements, the soft and hard decorations are all matched.
The hall is a lounge, with nine two-meter solid wood tables and chairs, all with ceramic tea sets.
Qiao Ran said: "Brother Jing, I followed your requirements and the quality is very high. Not counting the decoration, these tea tables and chairs are all made of high-quality huanghuali and cost a total of 800,000 yuan. The ceramics are
I specially bought custom-made porcelain from Jingdezhen famous artists, and the total of all the porcelain was less than 200,000 yuan.
And the guzheng right in front costs RMB 100,000. The decoration of each box adds up... Anyway, after all the calculations, more than 3 million yuan has gone out, and there is still about 1.2 million left in the account. This is
Accounts, if I hadn't kept them, I wouldn't have believed that I spent so much.
Next, we still need to purchase ingredients, transfer funds in the store, etc. I guess there won’t be much left. By the way, we also need to rent staff dormitories, and supposedly we need a car. Anyway, the investment this time is too big, Brother Jing
Let me tell you, there is absolutely no need for us to spend so much money. If we can earn back millions of dollars, I have no confidence at all now~"
Qiao Ran spoke with anxiety.
He didn't sleep all night after checking the accounts yesterday.
After listening to what Lu Jing said, no matter how high-end it is, there will be basically nothing left after five million.
Lu Jing knew what Qiao Ran was thinking, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "I won't read the accounts. You are my brother, and I trust you. As I said before, we are private chefs and take the high-end route.
All the hardware facilities need to be improved. Think about it. A table of meals costs RMB 100,000. People who can afford RMB 100,000 are looking for quality. What if the various services cannot keep up?
Oh, by the way, has the parking lot problem been solved? There must be a parking lot, otherwise this private kitchen will be half a store, which will greatly affect the business."
Qiao Ran heard Lu Jing mention the parking lot and said quickly: "I almost forgot if you didn't ask. The parking lot behind is owned by a private company and can be rented to us, but it's too expensive. They charge 20 yuan a year."
Ten thousand, which is only twenty or thirty parking spaces, and it costs a one-time payment for a year, and the price is the same. I went there several times and they didn't negotiate the price. I didn't want a parking lot, so forget it. There is a parking lot just one stop across the road.
field……"
Lu Jing interrupted Qiao Ran directly and said: "No, one stop is too far. We must have our own parking lot. We can't save this money. You can finalize this matter for me today."
"But Brother Jing, how much money can we make~" Qiao Ran looked pained.
Lu Jing smiled and said, "Qiao Ran, have you done the math? We have one hundred thousand per table, and the quota is ten tables. If it is full, it will be one million a day. In this way, the money for a parking lot is nothing."
Qiao Ran smiled bitterly and said: "Brother, of course I've done the math. The key is that our meal costs 100,000 yuan per table, and we don't let the guests choose. I'm destined to die. I'm afraid no one will come by then~"
"Haha, don't worry, someone will come naturally when the time comes. You just need to provide me with the best service. From now on, you can get the ingredients directly from my house. You can't use outside ingredients. By the way, when it comes to this, it is true.
I’ll give you a car to use. It just so happens that I also want to buy a car. Let’s look at the car together in the afternoon.”
"Uh, okay, you are the boss and you have the final say. I will listen to you." Seeing Lu Jing's calm and confident face, Qiao Ran said nothing more.
Lu Jing knew that he would be as worried as Qiao Ran now about the business problems in the store.
But now he doesn't worry about this problem at all.
Maybe it was due to his cultivation that his state of mind changed, or maybe it was due to the people and environment he came into contact with. He knew that a meal of 100,000 yuan was indeed a sky-high price for ordinary people, but for rich people, it was still a high price.
It's really just the price of a meal.
Regarding the customer source issue, his confidence comes from two aspects.
One is partners such as Mu Xiaoyao, Fang Nan, and Bai Qiansu, as well as Mu Guoyao, the Qin family, etc. They are all high-end connections, and it is natural to attract people.
The second is the most important source of confidence, that is, he supplies all the ingredients from the elixir field.
Strictly speaking, the vegetables grown in the elixir field are considered semi-reiki vegetables. They are unique ingredients in the world and are extremely beneficial to the body when eaten, so he is not worried about the source of customers at all.
Maybe it will be hard to find a table after it opens!
Lu Jing is confident about this.
Later, Qiao Ran and Qiao Ran went to see the box.
Each box is equipped with two round tables, one large and one small. The large one can seat twelve to twenty people, and the small one can seat three to eight people.
Each room has an independent bathroom, a children's play area, and a tea-drinking rest area. From a small tea cup to a large table, the materials are all of the highest quality.
Luxurious but not ostentatious, with antique-style decoration and restrained elegance, and moderate lighting, you will feel calm when you enter.
Lu Jing was very satisfied after seeing it and the money was not wasted.
"Let's go and see how to apply."
"Hurry up, there are a lot of people here and they have been waiting for a while," Qiao Ran said.
"Actually, you can handle this yourself~" Lu Jing said as he walked.
Qiao Ran quickly stopped and said: "Brother, stop it. In your words, our family is a high-end private chef, and the salary is much higher than outside. I don't ask for more. You can combine the chef, lobby manager, and finance
, these three key positions will be selected for me, and I can do the rest myself."
"Okay, okay, you go over first, I'll go to the bathroom and come back." Lu Jing said and went to the bathroom.
Qiao Ran had no choice but to smile bitterly and said, "Hurry up then, I'll go over and take a look first."
Lu Jing actually didn't care too much about this. For him, the most important thing was to look at people, and everything else was secondary.
When I came to the bathroom door, I happened to see a middle-aged fat man wearing a suit and combed hair, who was bumped into by a middle-aged lady dressed plainly.
"You are blind~" the fat man scolded immediately.
"Yes...yes, I'm sorry~" the middle-aged elder sister apologized quickly, sounding like she was stuttering.
"I'm sorry, that's it. Look, my leather shoes are dirty because you stepped on them. Clean them for me." The middle-aged fat man said with a dark face and refused to give up.
"Isn't it...I'm sorry, I'll wipe it off for you."
The middle-aged lady actually took out a tissue from her bag and wiped the fat man's shoes.
