"Qianxi, it's getting late. Let's go home. My mother is still waiting for us to eat."
"Okay, I'll go now, bye."
Naturally, the little moves between Xiao Qianxi and Xie Qiao could not escape Qin Hao's eyes, so he just pretended not to see them.
Being too anxious to eat hot tofu, Xiao Qianxi is not the kind of girl who takes things easy, so she still has to wait until the day comes.
Qin Chuan rarely followed Xie Qiao and left. Instead, he waited for them to leave and asked Qin Hao with a grimace: "Old Qin, do you think the pancake business can be done?"
"You must be capable of doing it, the key depends on how you do it, whether you just want to have food and clothing, or do it as a career." Qin Hao said seriously.
“How can making pancakes be a career?”
Qin Chuan brought a paint bucket and looked like he was asking for advice humbly: "Old Qin, can you tell me how to make this a career."
"It's simple, standardized, and scalable."
Qin Chuan was confused when he heard this: "No, I'm not as educated as you. I can't understand too profound words. Can you make it simpler and easier to understand?"
"Standardization is to make the taste of pancakes as popular as possible and match the tastes of more people as much as possible, so as to gain more audience groups and increase sales."
Qin Chuan nodded repeatedly when he heard this: "It makes sense, but what about scaling it up?"
"If you want to develop a pancake stall as a business, and set up a pancake stall to sell pancakes along the street, and be chased around by the urban management, it will definitely not work."
"You have to have a store and a regular customer base. After a store is consolidated, you need to select a location to develop a new store. Earning three to five thousand a month from one store is nothing, but what if you open ten stores? One hundred
What about families, even a thousand families, ten thousand families?”
Qin Chuan's eyes shone: "Ten thousand or ten thousand is a bit exaggerated. If you can open a dozen or so, wouldn't that be thirty to fifty thousand a month? That's enough."
"If you think like this, you are still thinking like a pancake stall. Let me tell you this, when you open from the first store to the tenth store, it may be difficult, but if you can open a hundred stores, it will take
It may only take a year or two to open to a thousand stores."
Qin Chuan scratched his head, but heard Qin Hao continue.
"When you open 100 stores, it means that your business model is very mature. At this time, you don't need to pay for opening another store. You can recruit franchisees, and you are responsible for providing technology and raw materials.
For personnel training, the franchisee is responsible for providing funds.”
"Whenever you open a thousand stores, people will have to call you Mr. Qin wherever you go."
Qin Chuan slapped his thigh: "Old Qin, no, Brother Hao, if my brother and I become prosperous one day, I will never forget you."
After saying that, Qin Chuan ran downstairs, probably to find his little friend Da Long.
Qin Hao smiled and shook his head. If Qin Chuan could really cure his love brain, he would really be a good business prospect. If he dares to think and act, he will have many clever ideas.
However, what Qin Hao didn't expect was that the next day, Qin Chuan would hit him with a trick.
Since the office here is still being renovated, Qin Hao and Xiao Qianxi still have to work in the garage.
At about ten o'clock in the morning, Qin Chuan came over in a hurry with Xie Qiao and his little friend Dalong.
Not only did people come, but they also brought pancake stalls with them.
The euphemistic name is to ask Qin Hao to help taste it.
"Well, this pancake tastes really good." Xiao Qianxi took a bite and praised.
Qin Chuan patted Dalong's shoulder proudly: "That's right, Dalong's family's craftsmanship is passed down from generation to generation."
However, seeing that Qin Hao remained silent, Qin Chuan asked carefully: "Brother Hao, what do you think?"
"The taste is quite good, but it still lacks some characteristics." Qin Hao said slowly.
The smile on Qin Chuan's face faltered, and Dalong was also a little dumbfounded.
"Brother Hao, can you speak more plainly?"
Xie Qiao couldn't stand it anymore: "Don't you understand this? It just needs to have the kind of taste that people will remember as soon as they eat it."
"Yes, that's what it means. The taste of your pancakes is still too simple. The ingredients in the pancakes are all crispy, eggs, fried dough sticks, etc. Such pancakes are all over the street. Why do people come to your store to buy them?
"Qin Hao nodded slowly.
Dalong scratched his head: "But aren't these things added to pancakes? Besides, I also have chopped peanuts, ham sausages, and chicken steaks."
"These can only make your pancake stall look a little bit unique, but if you want to open a chain store, this is not enough. You have to develop a competitive product that is eye-catching and that people will not forget once they eat it.
That kind of thing.”
After hearing Qin Hao's words, Qin Chuan and Da Long were both dumbfounded. They showed their cards, only to be severely beaten.
Seeing Qin Chuan's frustrated confidence, Xie Qiao couldn't bear it: "Old Qin, you are so smart. If you have any clever tricks, please teach them."
"In fact, there are only two types of innovation, either improving from tradition, or completely breaking tradition. That's all I can say. The rest is up to you to try and improve."
Qin Chuan and Dalong chewed Qin Hao's words repeatedly, suddenly jumped up, pushed the pancake stand and ran away.
"I'll invite you to try it tomorrow."
Xiao Qianxi looked at the two people's backs and smiled: "Have they always been like this?"
"Qin Chuan has been making noises since he was a child. This big dragon is just a follower of him. Why is he still following him now?" Xie Qiao shook his head helplessly.
In the next few days, Qin Chuan and Dalong came over every day to make their "special pancakes" for Qin Hao and Xiao Qianxi. These two guys were really creative.
Everything from wasabi squid to tahini chocolate can be rolled into pancakes.
Not to mention, after several days of testing, Qin Hao was able to develop two pretty good pancake flavors without almost completely injuring the pancakes.
Stinky tofu pork head and pork chops with salad dressing taste really good. The most important thing is that ordinary pancake stalls would never think of pairing them like this.

....."
Qin Hao interrupted as soon as he heard this: "It's not enough for us to be your guinea pigs every day. You also have to take out our wallets. Zhou Papi is not as ruthless as you."
"That's right, I'm almost going to vomit after eating these pancakes, and you still care about me asking for money." Xie Qiao also protested.
Qin Chuan rubbed his fingers in embarrassment: "Isn't this just the funds needed to open a store? Don't worry, if you make money, I will definitely pay it back."
Xie Qiao rummaged through his pockets, and finally found out more than three hundred yuan, which he handed over to Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan could only look at Qin Hao pitifully.
Qin Hao laughed and scolded: "You kid has convinced me. It's not enough to co-author and give you ideas, you also have to pay."
"Hehe, it's not easy for us, Brother Hao, to have three melons and two jujubes." Qin Chuan accompanied him with a smile.
"Tell me, how much is missing?"
"Three thousand yuan, three thousand yuan is enough. I plan to open a window in the Beiqing canteen first, and when I make money, I will find a regular store outside."
Qin Hao saw through Qin Chuan's little thoughts at a glance, but he didn't point it out.
"Three thousand yuan is really not much to me, but in business, do you plan to borrow this money, or do you want me to invest in it?"
“How to invest in shares?”
"If I buy shares, I will hold 30% of the shares. If I make money and share dividends in the future, I will get 30% of the net profit in return. Of course, if I lose money, even if my investment fails, you don't have to pay it back. And if the store expands in the future,
, if the cash flow is not enough, I can also participate in increasing capital and expanding shares."
When Qin Chuan and Dalong heard this, they immediately chose to invest.
"Okay, I'll draft a contract, sign it in black and white, and the funds will be in place immediately."
Xie Qiao quietly whispered in Xiao Qianxi's ear: "It's only three thousand yuan. Isn't Lao Qin a bit too formal?"
"Maybe we are used to it. When we are negotiating with a large company like NetEase, every contract clause has to be negotiated repeatedly."
Hearing what Xiao Qianxi said, Xie Qiao felt relieved: "No wonder Lao Qin can make so much money."
After signing the contract, Qin Hao immediately used online banking to transfer 3,000 yuan to Qin Chuan.
After the serious conversation was over, Xie Qiao suddenly remembered.
"Qianxi, Lao Qin, why don't you come to our house for the New Year's Eve dinner? There are so many people and it's so lively."
Qin Hao was a little hesitant. He was not being polite, but he felt that he and Xie Qiao's parents had never met before, so they felt a little uncomfortable having New Year's Eve dinner together.
Xiao Qianxi on the side tugged on Qin Hao's sleeve: "It's okay, Xie Qiao's parents and grandma are very nice people."
"Okay, I'll bother you then."
"Hey, why are you being polite to me? It's settled then. Come over early tomorrow afternoon."
As if afraid that Qin Hao would regret it, Xie Qiao ran away in a flash.
Qin Chuan and Dalong also pushed the pancake stall and followed.
The originally noisy garage immediately fell silent, leaving only Qin Hao and Xiao Qianxi.
"Let's go."
"Where are you going? Aren't you on duty?"
"There is usually nothing going on at this point, and the customer service number is your mobile phone. If there is an emergency, I will call you."
"But, where are we going?"
"Of course I'm going to buy some gifts. I'm going to Xie Qiao's house for the New Year's Eve dinner tomorrow. You can't go empty-handed, right?"
Wangfujing Commercial Street has just completed its renovation and opened to the outside world in 1999.
At this time, Wangfujing Commercial Street was far from as prosperous as it would later be, but it was already the busiest commercial street in Beijing.
Xiao Qianxi's eyes kept turning. This was a completely different world from the capital she had remembered with its profound historical and cultural heritage.
Of course, when Xiao Qianxi saw the price tags of the famous brand clothes in the shopping mall, she couldn't help but secretly sighed.
"Aren't the things here too expensive? A simple shirt costs more than a thousand."
While she was talking, Qin Hao took her into a women's clothing store.
"Sir, Madam, welcome. How can I help you?"
Qin Hao put his arm around Xiao Qianxi's shoulders: "Help my girlfriend match two formal outfits and two casual outfits."
"Okay sir, please come with me." The shopping guide's eyes immediately lit up upon hearing this. This was when he met a big customer.
Xiao Qianxi's head was buzzing when she heard Qin Hao introduce herself as his girlfriend. She didn't react until she reached the women's clothing area and whispered: "I have enough clothes, and the clothes here are too expensive. Let's go somewhere else."
Buy it somewhere.”
"These are not clothes bought for you, they are work clothes. Remember when we went to Shanda Network? Wear more mature clothes and you will need them whether you are talking about business or meeting investors."
Qin Hao didn't give Xiao Qianxi a chance to refuse. After the shopping guide brought the clothes, he directly asked Xiao Qianxi to try on the clothes.
After Xiao Qianxi entered the fitting room, she felt restless when she looked at the prices on the tags on the clothes. A random piece of clothing cost her a month's salary. These clothes completely subverted her view of consumption.
Seeing that Xiao Qianxi didn't come out for a long time, Qin Hao knocked on the door of the fitting room.
"Qianxi, if you don't come out, I will go in."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qianxi became even more panicked: "No, I'll come out right away."
After a few minutes, Xiao Qianxi changed into an all-black OL uniform. She changed from her previous youthful look and really looked like a professional elite.
Qin Hao frowned and shook his head: "You're too old, let's change to another one."
The shopping guide immediately presented me with an off-white professional suit.
"Well, this set is good. I'll wait and see if I can try another set."
After changing into more than a dozen outfits in a row, Xiao Qianxi gradually became more cooperative from her reluctance at the beginning. After all, what girl doesn't like to wear beautiful clothes?
"Just these four sets, help me wrap them up."
"Okay sir, would you like to pay by cash or by card?"
"Swipe your card."
When she came out of the women's clothing store, Xiao Qianxi felt a little unnatural when she walked. Qin Haofei asked her to put on one of the clothes. With such expensive clothes, she always felt that what was attached to her body was not cloth, but money.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "You also help me choose some men's clothes."
After visiting the men's clothing store, Xiao Qianxi was already numb. In just a short time, Qin Hao had spent tens of thousands, which she would not have dared to think about before.
"By the way, Xie Qiao's parents and grandma, what do they like?"
"Uncle Xie seems to like drinking tea more. Aunt Qiao looks a little serious. I don't know what she likes specifically. Grandma Xie..."
Qin Hao didn't choose too expensive gifts for Xie Qiao's family, so as not to make them feel bad.
On the way back, Qin Hao warned: "When you go to Xie Qiao's house later, don't tell her that we bought a gift."
"Well, I know, I'm not stupid."
Qin Hao pinched Xiao Qianxi's tight waist: "You're not stupid. If you didn't know better, I would have thought you had an iron plate on your back. How can you walk like this?"
"Humph, you have to let me wear this outfit, but a lot of people are looking at me." Xiao Qianxi hummed to express her dissatisfaction.
"You are wearing a down jacket. How can they see it? The main reason is that you are beautiful."
"Huh, glib."
In the blink of an eye, at night, Qin Hao sent Xiao Qianxi to the door of Xie Qiao's house.
"Go to bed early and don't come too early tomorrow."
"Well, you should go back to the hotel early."
Xiao Qianxi knocked on the door of Xie Qiao's house and was quickly welcomed in by Xie Qiao's mother.
"Qianxi is back, come inside and warm yourself up."
After Xiao Qianxi took off her down jacket, Xie Qiao noticed it immediately.
"Qianxi, where did you buy this dress? It's so beautiful. Isn't it cheap?"
"Well, he insisted on buying it. He said it was work clothes."
"Work clothes? Then I will ask Lao Qin to buy me two sets tomorrow. I usually help him, so I can count him as half an employee."
"How about I give you two sets? Don't let him buy them. He has already spent a lot of money today."
"Hey, you, the boss lady, haven't even walked in yet, and you're starting to feel sorry for him?"
Xiao Qianxi blushed: "Don't talk nonsense."
"I'm not lying. I didn't know who was following whom yesterday. They hugged each other so tightly that they almost melted into one."
