Chapter 205 Fengze Garden’s Money-Making Plan
The next day, Wang Jianye got dressed early and washed up as usual.

He went to a breakfast stand outside and ate two taels of steamed buns, two fried dough sticks, a boiled egg, and a bowl of sweet soy milk, about the same amount as he usually ate, and it cost him 11 cents.

Although Qin Huairu did not make a direct request last night, she still talked about that point.

Smart Wang Jianye immediately understood Qin Huairu's thoughts and needs, and immediately scolded, "How can you be worthy of Jia Dongxu? What do you think of me?"

Then Qin Huairu ran away embarrassedly.

One time of bravery will lead to a lifetime of inferiority.

I don’t know whether this statement will work on Qin Huairu, how long it will work, and whether she will launch an offensive against him again in the future.

Anyway, Wang Jianye has no intention of touching her for now. He is a gentleman and a moral role model. That's it.

……

Eleven o'clock in the morning.

A young couple came to Fengze Garden and said, "I heard that you have a delicious dish of spicy and sour potato shreds, right?"

"That's right. Our chef Wang's signature spicy and sour potato shreds have been selling extremely well in the past two days. Many customers come here just to try this dish." Xu Youliang was free at the moment, so he came to entertain the guests in person.

"Then let's order one." The young man said to Xu Youliang.

Xu Youliang explained apologetically, "I'm so sorry, we have a new rule at Fengze Garden, that is, Master Wang's signature hot and sour potato shreds are included in the set meal. Customers can't order this dish alone, they need to order the set meal, which includes this dish."

"Ah? How much does it cost?" The man asked nervously after hearing this. He said that he would bring his girlfriend to try the hot and sour shredded potatoes that have been very popular in Fengze Garden recently. He knew that this dish was not expensive compared to other signature dishes of Fengze Garden, such as braised sea cucumber with scallions and nine-turn large intestine, so he was willing to bring his girlfriend here and spend money.

"This set meal has four dishes, namely the signature stir-fried pork tenderloin, signature fried meatballs, signature first-class tofu, and chef Wang's signature hot and sour potato shreds. In addition to the dishes, there are also rice and steamed buns as staple foods...

The price of the set meal is 1.3 yuan, but if you order each dish individually, the total price is 1.8 yuan. Now that it is put together in a set meal, the total price is much lower, which can be said to be very worthwhile. If you want to taste the signature hot and sour potato shreds made by Master Wang, you can order this set meal. "

Stir-fried shredded pork tenderloin, deep-fried meatballs, and first-class tofu, like the spicy and sour shredded potatoes, can all be made quickly, and several can be prepared at one time, making them very suitable as a set meal that can be served quickly.

"Or, forget it."

The young woman whispered to the young man next to her that she didn't want him to spend so much money on her.

The young man also wanted to be a hero, but he was short of money. He only had fifty cents in his pocket and could not afford the price of the set meal. So he had to give up.

He had inquired before coming and learned that the delicious spicy and sour potato shreds at Fengze Garden were only 30 cents per dish, so the one dollar he brought was more than enough.

But he didn't expect that when he came to Fengze Garden the next day, he found that this delicious spicy and sour potato shreds were not sold individually. If he wanted to eat it, he had to order a set meal. How could he afford it?

After exiting the gate of Fengze Garden and walking not far along Zhushikou West Street, the two saw a wooden board in front of a small shop with the words: Fengze Garden's signature spicy and sour potato shreds for sale at a low price, 30 cents per serving.

"Look, this store sells the Fengzeyuan spicy and sour shredded potatoes we want to eat."

The young woman was the first to notice the wooden sign. "30 cents a portion, much cheaper than Fengzeyuan. You have to spend 1.30 yuan to taste it at Fengzeyuan."

"Let's go in and take a look."

When the young man saw that the price was so much cheaper, he curiously walked into the house with the young woman next to him.

Sure enough, on the table in the room, there were four large bowls, and in the plates were the stir-fried shredded pork tenderloin, deep-fried meatballs, first-class tofu, and spicy and sour shredded potatoes from the Fengzeyuan set meal.

Next to the table, there were meal sets that the employees had just bought from Fengzeyuan, which were poured into basins.

The young man went forward to ask and found out that this group of people saw that Fengzeyuan's spicy and sour potato shreds were so popular in the past two days, and many people wanted to try it, but Fengzeyuan was so small that it could not accommodate so many customers, so they had to leave disappointed. So this group of people started a reselling business. They sent people to Fengzeyuan to buy spicy and sour potato shreds, and then split one dish into multiple portions, with a lower price, to satisfy those who wanted to try Fengzeyuan's signature spicy and sour potato shreds but couldn't get in line or were reluctant to spend money.

Today, Fengzeyuan no longer sells this spicy and sour potato shreds separately, but puts it in a set meal. So this group of people had to buy the whole set meal. When it is sold again, a little bit of all the four dishes in the set meal are packaged together, and the price is much lower than that of Fengzeyuan's set meal.

When the young man heard that these dishes were a set meal that they sent someone to buy at Fengze Garden, and that it was cheap, he became interested and said, "Give us a portion to try."

Then he took out three cents and handed it over.

The employee in the store took the money, took out a piece of brown paper, picked up a little bit of the vegetables from the four bowls, wrapped them on the brown paper, and handed them to the young man.

"No chopsticks?"

The young woman couldn't help but ask, should she catch it with her hands?
“No chopsticks.”

The employees in the store were not polite at all. They said that this place is very environmentally friendly and does not provide dine-in services. There are no tables for guests and no chopsticks.

The two of them had no choice but to take the paper bag and leave the room. The young man said to the young woman, "Try it first."

The young woman smelled the delicious aroma, so she picked up two shredded potatoes and put them into her mouth.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" asked the young man.

The young woman nodded, and mist appeared in her bright eyes, which soon turned into tears and flowed down. "It's really delicious."

"Really? Then let me try it."

After tasting it, the man couldn't help but exclaimed: "It really lives up to its reputation. Chef Wang from Fengze Garden can make a dish of spicy and sour potato shreds so delicious." As he said this, he couldn't help but shed tears because it was so delicious.

After customers came to Fengzeyuan, they learned that Master Wang’s signature spicy and sour shredded potatoes were included in the set meal. Some of them had money and chose to buy it directly.

Another group of people are like the young couple. Due to insufficient budget, they can only leave Fengze Garden and go to a small shop not far away to buy some to try, which is cheap and affordable.

When the evening settlement was made, Qiao Jianliang quietly entered Fengze Garden through the back door.

If the young couple who went to the nearby store at noon to buy a small portion of spicy and sour potato shreds saw him, they would definitely recognize him. Isn't he the clerk of that store?

That’s right, that small shop was opened by Fengzeyuan. It had two purposes. One was to make money from those people who wanted to eat the signature spicy and sour potato shreds at Fengzeyuan but couldn’t afford the set meal.

The second is to ease the pressure on Fengze Garden to receive customers. There are too many customers in Fengze Garden in the past two days. If the group of people who cannot afford the set meal can be diverted away, the pressure will be relieved a lot.

This idea was thought up by boss Jiang Rongqing under the guidance of manager Zheng Hao.

When instructing Qiao Jianliang to do it, he was specifically asked not to reveal his relationship with Fengze Garden. This way, the guests who go to their place will have the feeling that they have spent little money but experienced the high-end food in Fengze Garden. They will have the feeling that they have spent money but still got a good deal.

Jiang Rongqing didn't have any bad intentions, he just wanted to save every penny of the homeless.

Qiao Jianliang came to the boss's office in the third courtyard.

In addition to Jiang Rongqing, he also met the accountant, manager Zheng Hao, chef Zhou Qingde, head chef Xu Youliang, and of course, head chef Wang Jianye.

"Everyone is here. Let's calculate how much money we made today using the new plan. If it's 10% more than yesterday, everyone will get a big red envelope."

Jiang Rongqing sat on a chair and spoke to everyone.
