Chapter 210 Private Kitchen
After more than a month of preparation, Zhou Zifei finally opened the hotel and recruited four people, a chef, two chefs, and a cleaner. Zhou Zifei was responsible for purchasing and other various miscellaneous tasks.
The takeaway platform has also been launched. The new store opened a big reward and held a full discount event on the takeaway platform. At the beginning, there were quite a lot of orders, and Gu Nian was very supportive, so she asked her company's front desk to order food in Zhou Zifei's hotel, which ensured the first batch of customers in Zhou Zifei's new store and gave Zhou Zifei great confidence.
The main dishes in the store are various boxed lunches, such as pork leece rice and chicken chop rice. The business philosophy is to eat and eat nutritiously, take into account factors such as hygiene, beauty, etc.
Zhou Zifei was so busy that in addition to working on the store every day, he also had to do promotion, printed many flyers himself, went to various office buildings and community buildings to learn how to operate on the takeaway platform, adjust the dishes in the store, and so on.
"Brother, do you know what I thank you the most now?"
After taking the time, I went to the store to check it out, and Zhou Zifei sat down and chatted with me.
"What"
"Now last year, you forced me to run and practice martial arts. I am really grateful to you. If my brother hadn't forced me to practice my body well, even if I gave me this opportunity, my body wouldn't be able to bear it."
Zhou Zifei said sincerely that over the past month, he only slept for less than five hours a day, and was so busy that he was dizzy, but he was not exhausted. This was something he had never imagined before. If it weren't for the foundation he had built up with exercise for the whole year last year, he would have lost his morning drink. Now he finally knew what the body is the capital of everything.
"You scolded me a lot at that time."
"Brother, you don't have to slap people in the face"
Zhou Zifei felt a little embarrassed. At that time, he was really cursing in his heart every day. Now, he is really embarrassed to think about it.
"Haha, then you will continue to exercise after you finish this battle and stabilize. You are still young now. If you don't keep it, your body will collapse in a few years, do you know?"
"I understand, brother, I've been busy for a while now, and I'll probably stabilize at most a month. Then I'll go to practice martial arts with me again."
"That's good. Now you are more professional than me in opening a hotel. I won't say anything else. As long as you remember one thing, that is conscience. There are many unscrupulous merchants now. I don't want to see news about your accident in the future.
So you must ensure that you use real materials and ensure hygiene. Even if you make less money, you know?”
"I don't need to remind me that, just like my brother makes noodles, real ingredients, and win customers with reputation. Brother, come and see the evaluation of our store on the takeaway platform. Now it has sold hundreds of orders, and there has not been a bad review of the quality of the food."
"That's good, congratulations to Zhou Zifei for finding his own direction in life."
"Brother, I listen to your meaning that you want to abandon me, that's not OK."
"There is no banquet that never ends. You and I are destined to be people on both sides. I may leave in the future, but not now."
I nodded. Zhou Zifei is just an ordinary person, and I am a practitioner of Taoism. Our life is destined to be two paths, which is unselectable.
"Brother, don't do this. If you leave, I feel insecure."
"Silly boy, you are the boss now, and you have to look like a boss in the future, do you know?"
"But····"
"No, open your store well, do you know?"
"Okay, brother, I'll treat you to dinner this weekend, and Miss Gu, Miss Gu has helped me a lot with this shop. If she hadn't helped, I would definitely not be able to open it."
"Okay, you can set a place when the time comes."
"I'll order somewhere to eat in the store. Now we are a restaurant owner and I'll make this money for others. Isn't that a loss?"
"Haha, it makes sense, it makes sense"
I laughed and said, Zhou Zifei is very good at having this ideological awareness. He has opened a store himself and earned money for others. That would be a loss.
On the weekend, I made an appointment with Gu Nian and Xuanxuan to come to Zhou Zifei’s shop for dinner. Zhou Zifei carefully prepared for the afternoon and cooked a table of food, and many of them were made by Zhou Zifei himself.
"Come on, everyone will give you a cup to Boss Zhou."
"Brother, don't do this, I'm embarrassed."
"What's the shame? I have to call you Mr. Zhou in the future."
"Mr. Gu, you laugh at me too."
"I'm not laughing at you. You really have done your best to build this restaurant. My employees have all had a good review."
Gu Nian said with a smile that her company has been eating the food in Zhou Zifei's store for more than half a month. Perhaps because Zhou Zifei reciprocates, the meals are more than others and have received unanimous praise.
"Xuanji, when I graduate, I want to open a hotel too."
"Xuanxuan, why did you think of opening a hotel?"
"Because you make money, hey, it's hard to find an English major now, don't you know?"
Xuanxuan smiled bitterly. In recent years, there were more and more college graduates. Their major was no longer as scarce as it was more than ten years ago, and the employment situation was getting worse and worse.
First of all, there are more and more students majoring in English, from key universities to ordinary first-tier universities, second-tier universities and even junior colleges, all have English majors, which are extremely competitive. Xuanxuan is just an ordinary third-tier university and has no advantage in terms of academic qualifications. Even if she is a top student in the school, the same is true for the top student. After all, the value between top student and top student is also different.
Secondly, there are too many international students and so on. To put it bluntly, there are too many people who can speak English. Unless they reach the top level in this industry, they will not have much salary even if they find a job.
"Didn't your parents say you want to go home to take the teaching or civil servant exam?"
"I don't want to go back. The days in the small place are too monotonous. You can see life twenty years later at a glance."
Xuanxuan shook her head, and could see at a glance that this kind of life twenty years later was really terrible for her.
"What about your self-media, don't do it anymore?"
"Li Xuanji, you forgot what I told you, this matter turned out to be ruined last month."
Xuanxuan suddenly became angry. Since last year, beauty and self-media have exploded, and various capital forces have ended up. The entire industry has begun to be reshuffled or eliminated. They are either bigger or eliminated. There is no hope for small studios like them.
So even the senior sister Xuanxuan was desperate and decided to transform. She then sold the various official accounts they operated. Overall, she didn't lose money, but she had worked in vain for so long.
"I'm sorry, sorry, my fault, my fault"
"Hmph, you don't care about me at all"
"Xuanxuan, if you want to open a hotel, how about I give you some inspiration?"
"Sister Gu, you said"
"Health preservation, people are getting worse and worse now, and the demand for health preservation is getting greater and greater. Especially senior executives above managers are usually very busy, and those who can be above executives are most of them who are up to the age of 30 and their physical functions are on the decline.
Therefore, there is definitely a lot to do in this regard. Men need to strengthen their kidneys and body, while women need to nourish their skin, and the concept that medicine is not as good as food supplements is deeply rooted in people's hearts. If you can have a bowl of medicinal food that nourishes the body on the way to work, it will definitely be very popular."
"Ah, Sister Gu, what you said makes sense, it seems that this is really possible."
"It is definitely possible to do it. Of course, Yangcheng is not good. Yangcheng is still a small city. Ordinary managers only earn less than 10,000 yuan. The real top-level executives do not lack this. They have nannies and servants at home. This business deals with the middle class. You have to go to big cities and first-tier cities."
Gu Nian replied that she did not fool Xuanxuan, but that she got it after observing many things.
In fact, middle- and senior officials who earned more than 10,000 yuan last month were basically very busy. The higher the position, the greater the age group, and the pressure did not decrease relatively. Therefore, these people have a serious sub-health status and a huge demand for health preservation. You can tell this by looking at the health preservation products on the market.
It is not the elderly who need health care, but middle-aged people, as the main force in society, also need it. Most of them do not have the time and energy to maintain health care, so there is definitely a lot of potential in this industry.
"Sister Gu, will it be too late to do it after I graduate?"
"No, as far as I know, there is no capital to lay out this industry yet. At most, don't try it. You still have a chance. Of course, you can also lay out in advance, such as learning more about health preservation."
"Thank you, Sister Gu, I will work hard."
Xuanxuan suddenly felt that she had found another life goal and suddenly felt full of motivation.
It’s better for Gu Nian to divert Xuanxuan’s attention, so that she can save her from causing trouble for me. I did not care enough about Xuanxuan during this period and felt a little guilty.
After dinner, we parted. I took Xuanxuan back to school. On the way, Xuanxuan kept asking me if what Gu Nian said made sense and whether it was feasible. I didn’t make much evaluation, and I didn’t want to undermine Xuanxuan’s enthusiasm.
The food supplement and health care mentioned by Gu Nian is naturally very marketable, but the professional skills required are very high. It is very simple. Kidney deficiency, which should be an unchanging topic for the ages. Most men will face this problem after they are over thirty-five years old.
However, kidney deficiency is divided into two types: kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency. It is difficult for people who are not professional to distinguish these. Food supplement materials also require a strong professional level. The simplest point is, take ginseng as an example. Can you distinguish the origin, age, variety, etc., and you don’t know if you are deceived.
Not to mention that there are more serious things, such as everyone's physical condition is different, and even the food supplement prescriptions prescribed by professional Chinese medicine for everyone is different. If the supplement is wrong, it is not a trivial matter.
