Chapter 92 Industry Doubles
If it was before, Yan Xu would not have wanted these two people even if there was just a risk of being taken out on, but now he made the call very readily.
After making the call and waiting in the city for two days, Yan Xu finally met the two talents.
The first person who caught my eye was Ye Mei, a mature and beautiful young woman. She smiled before she spoke, and she never let her words fall by the wayside from the moment she opened her mouth. It was obvious that she was a very versatile person, no wonder she was able to become the manager.
The cook's name is Bao Ming, he is average looking, a little fat, and he is neatly dressed. However, he is timid and always looks at Ye Mei's face for everything. The label of a bootlicker is welded on his face.
After calling Chen Deli to thank him, Yan Xu drove the two of them back to town. Along the way, their faces became worse and worse. If they hadn't had nowhere to go for the time being, they would have asked him to stop the car immediately.
After all, he has seen the world in the province, and even if he is down and out, he would not end up in the countryside.
Although Yan Xu saw the expressions of the two men and guessed what they were thinking, he said nothing and drove the car directly to the yard outside the town.
The kitchen that Chen Deli had asked to be renovated has been completed. Yan Xu directly opened the freezer and pointed at Bao Ming, telling him to use any ingredients he wanted and let him show off his cooking skills.
The two were not shortsighted. As soon as they saw the ingredients, they knew that this private restaurant was quite capable. If the quality could be maintained, it might be a promising future.
Private restaurants are not afraid of being remote or far away, but they are afraid of not having good ingredients and a good chef. It just so happens that both are available here.
Although Bao Ming's character is not to be criticized, his cooking skills are pretty good. The meals he cooks are delicious and tasty, showing the freshness and fragrance of the best ingredients to the fullest, which is much more difficult than piling up spices.
"After three months of trial operation, in addition to wages, each person will receive 50% of the net profit. After one year, each person will receive 10%; after three years, each person will receive two floors." Yan Xu's conditions can be said to be quite favorable. The two people who originally just wanted to stay here for a while were really tempted this time.
The reason why the two of them changed jobs was because they did not get a reasonable return for their efforts.
There is no need to talk about Ye Mei. For a woman to be charming but not lascivious, and at the same time manage a private restaurant in such an orderly manner, one can imagine how much hardship she has endured.
Bao Ming started learning the craft at the age of fifteen, and at the age of thirty he was still working as a salaried second chef. The salary he earned was barely enough to support himself, let alone buy a house and get married in the provincial capital.
Although the place is small now, I can give full play to my abilities and there are dividends, so I may be able to continue for a long time.
After Ye Mei became the manager, she quickly recruited people, from the waitresses who wore slit cheongsams and smiled before speaking, to the handymen who were skillful in cutting vegetables and washing dishes, she took care of everything, which saved Yan Xu a lot of worries.
Once everyone was gathered, Yan Xu paid for them to go to the city for a physical examination.
There was no health certificate at that time, but Yan Xu wanted to make his private restaurant stand out, so he had to do every little thing well.
Therefore, after the physical examination, you should change into work clothes and take photos, which will be pasted under the business license together with the physical examination form.
Bao Ming hadn't figured out anything yet, but Ye Mei knew that the new boss had some talent and was not just a fool who wanted to do something on a whim.
After all preparations were completed, the private restaurant began its trial operation.
"Director Zhao, please come in and sit down."
"Director Zhang, long time no see. We must have a nice drink today." "Secretary Li, what a rare guest, what a rare guest."
"Captain Guo, please don't leave early this time. The wine is ready. You have to drink and enjoy yourself."
Lao Ma and Gou Qiang were familiar with some of the network of relationships left by Yan's father. They took turns to invite people everywhere and set up a Japanese seafood banquet, which really attracted quite a few people. As a result, they became addicted to the food.
The seafood is just for the sake of freshness, and the real signature dish of the private restaurant is the ginseng and wolfberry chicken soup.
The free-range chickens collected in the village are paired with ten-year-old mountain ginseng. Even if it's just a few slices of ginseng, everyone at the table will feel flushed with nourishment, and those who are weak may even have nosebleeds. Now everyone knows that this thing is a great tonic.
Unfortunately, the daily quantity of the private restaurant’s signature dishes is limited, and reservations are scheduled for two months in the future.
This old mountain ginseng was naturally brought out by Yan Xu. As for the reason, one was that he was in a hurry to make a name for himself, and the other was to let the two invited people not take him too seriously.
Even without Ye Mei and Bao Ming, there is still Liu Mei and Wang Ming. But without its signature dish, ginseng and wolfberry chicken soup, what's the difference between the private restaurant and an ordinary private restaurant?
Regardless of whether the two of them understood it or not, the private restaurant opened by Yan Xu became famous in the town in just half a month, and even people from the city came here because of its reputation. After all, people were tired of eating domestic food, so foreign food seemed particularly delicious, not to mention that the food was cooked with great craftsmanship, the service was also at its best, and there was authentic ginseng and wolfberry chicken soup. It was definitely worth a trip.
Taking advantage of the popularity of the private restaurant, Yan Xu successfully picked up the connections left by his father, and on this basis slowly built his own network of relationships.
As his network of relationships expanded, Yan Xu found that things were becoming easier and easier. Not only did the hardware factory receive new orders, but the interest-free loan approved by the town to support the wood furniture factory was worth the money, not to mention that he was able to smoothly complete the procedures for the jewelry shop.
In addition, Yan Xu also signed a contract with a certain film crew through some connections, proving that he would provide them with movie props. As for whether or not they were provided, it is actually not important at all.
In just one month, Yan Xu not only doubled his business, but he also no longer had to be as timid as before when doing things.
Of course, Yan Xu would not forget to be cautious.
After tasting the sweetness of personal connections, Yan Xu plans to deepen them.
How to deepen relationships is a science, and Yan Xu is not very proficient in it, so he finally decided to do this in the name of the wood furniture factory that had just received a support loan.
Because he found a system loophole, Yan Xu no longer needed to waste precious transportation capacity to transport heavy wood that took up space. He only needed to build a sentry tower at the pig farm and immediately stop work and dismantle the thick logs as soon as they were erected. In this way, he could obtain high-quality wood continuously, faster than growing crops in the soil.
Otherwise, Yan Xu would not have saved so much transportation capacity and brought in more cost-effective Japanese ingredients and other supplies.
As for how to explain the source of the large amount of wood, haha, Yan Xu spent the whole morning and had several departments take turns to stamp it. Now all the procedures are complete. As long as the taxes are paid on time, no one will care where the extra wood comes from. The same goes for gold and silver, not to mention food.
It can be said that as long as he pays taxes and is willing to take the lead in developing the economy, the local government will help him solve all problems, and no one from above can do anything about it.
In fact, people like him who go through the formalities honestly and pay taxes on time are the outliers.
There is no way. Business these days is developing in a completely barbaric way. Because the country is still learning, imperfection is normal. So there is only one theme, which is to make money and develop the economy, especially industries supported by local governments. As long as you can help the local economic development, there are not so many rules and regulations.
