Changzhou Fucheng is a Fucheng after all, and its purchasing power exceeds her expectations. In this case, increasing the number of food stalls can increase Xia Ji's overall income to the greatest extent.
In addition, it is necessary to add food categories to expand the influence of Xia Ji.
But the prerequisite for doing these two things is that you need to do a good job in attracting investment and joining.
Guanshi Fu had already spread the news that Xia Kee Food Stall could be franchised, and Xia Mingyue often revealed the news about joining Xia Kee Food Stall when she went to set up the stall.
Therefore, in recent days, people have begun to come to inquire about joining Xia Kee Food Stall.
The standard of franchise fee is slightly higher than that of the one in Jinqiu County, but the principle of joining Xiaji in Jinqiu County is still followed, with priority given to poor families and families with military needs.
Compared with Jinqiu County where Xia Mingyue has to go and inquire whether the character of the franchisee is upright, here in Changzhou Fucheng there are blessings for the stewards to arrange these trivial matters, but the final franchisee is still determined to be Xia Mingyue's opinion is the main one.
Xia Mingyue suddenly felt very relieved, and felt more and more that she had benefited greatly from this cooperation with Mrs. He.
But since you have benefited from it, you must repay it in other ways.
Xia Mingyue became more and more attentive to Xia Ji's business, taking every detail into consideration and striving to do everything to perfection.
Jiang Zhuguo and Zhuang Cui also worked hard with all their heart.
With the concerted efforts of everyone, the first franchisee of Xia Ji Food Stall was confirmed.
The franchisee is a widow surnamed He. After her husband died in the battlefield, she was kicked out by her husband's family in the name of Kefu. Even her husband's pension was not given, so He had to live alone. Dragging three children around to make a living.
Due to years of hard work and many years of living outside the home, He is quick at work, knows how to watch people's words, and has a certain foundation in cooking.
The eldest daughter and the second son are twins. They are already eleven or twelve years old. They are smart and can work like adults. The younger daughter is eight years old and can also do some work like washing and clearing tables.
A family can basically support the entire food stall.
It's just that He's family is poor and can't afford the franchise fee, so Xia Mingyue still collects money according to the installment method of joining Xia Ji in Jinqiu County.
He thanked her profusely and promised to do a good job in the business of Xia Kee Food Stall.
After several days of very systematic teaching, when Xia Mingyue felt that it was about the same, He's Xia Ji food stall opened on the street in Xicheng District, Cheung Chau Fucheng.
He's food stall is some distance away from Xia Mingyue's current food stall, but it is not too far away. In this way, they will not compete with each other for customers, but also can have a good influence on Xia Ji due to the spread of Xia Ji's reputation. Ho's food stall brings a certain number of diners and at the same time consolidates the brand influence of Ha Kee Food Stall.
Kill multiple birds with one stone!
The business of He's Xia Ji food stall has been very good since the day it opened. After a few days, the business has become more prosperous, and even the income has become more and more impressive.
Looking at the money bag that was getting bigger day by day, Mr. He smiled more and more. She also felt that this was a way for their family to survive, so she worked harder and harder in business.
Warm greetings, ample portions, and more for the more you buy...
He's food shop is booming, attracting many people who want to make a living, and they are looking for it one after another. Go to Xia Mingyue and Fu Guanshi to inquire about joining the franchise.
Just when Xia Mingyue and Manager Fu were busy, someone sent a letter.
The letter is to Xia Mingyue, written by Lu Qiyan, and there are two letters at a time.
The person who sent the letter was full of shame, "This first letter should have been sent half a month ago, but the address on the letter is unknown, and only the name of the recipient is written. The huge city of Changzhou is true. I didn't know where to look for it, so I was delayed for a while. "I didn't know where this second letter was supposed to be sent. I just heard someone said that Cheung Chau Fucheng had recently opened a new one. The food stall was quite delicious. It was Xia Ji, so he came over to try his luck. Fortunately, he found it. "
"Ms. Tell the other party that the address of the recipient should be written more carefully, and at least the name of the alley should be added, otherwise it will really waste time. "
It's fine if there's nothing urgent, but if there's something that urgently needs to be done and the host's family is delayed, I'm afraid they'll have to blame the messengers again.
This job is not easy to do...
"Definitely." Xia Mingyue received two letters at once, feeling happy and agreed with a smile.
"Okay." The little brother who delivered the letter also grinned when he saw this, got on his horse, and continued to deliver letters to others.
Xia Mingyue returned to the house holding two letters.
After opening it carefully, I saw that one of the letters was signed more than half a month ago, while the other letter was signed three days ago.
It can be seen that Lu Qiyan is still thinking about writing to her.
It’s just that Lu Qiyan is a little clueless. Now that he knows that she has arrived in Changzhou Fucheng, he just waits for her to write him a letter so that he can know the specific address. He is really not afraid of such a headless fly. Lost in the sea?
Fortunately, the messenger heard about Xia Ji and found her, otherwise...
Wait!
Is it possible that Lu Qiyan has great confidence in her and feels that Xia Ji will definitely shine in Changzhou Fucheng, so his letter will definitely be delivered to her?
Xia Mingyue curled her lips and only read the contents of the two letters.
The content of the first letter was to ask whether Xia Mingyue had settled in Cheung Chau Fucheng and whether everything was fine.
The second letter told her to take good care of her body and not to focus solely on business...
The content of both letters was very short, just a few lines, but only It only takes up half of the entire letter paper.
Cherish ink like gold?
Hmph, big bad guy!
Xia Mingyue angrily packed the letter back and threw it on the table nearby.
But after a while, he took the letter over, opened it, read it, raised the corners of his mouth, folded it carefully, and put it back into the envelope.
After repeating this behavior several times, Xia Mingyue took out pen and paper again and began to write a reply to Lu Qiyan.
“The weather has been hot recently, and because I’m not used to everything in Cheung Chau Fucheng for the first time, I can’t sleep at night. Fortunately, the steward found ice cubes and put them in the room to cool down, so that I could have a good night’s sleep.”
“ I took some time off to make some ice porridge, put crushed ice on the bottom of the bowl, put fresh fruits and honey beans, and poured thick honey juice on it. It is clear and refreshing and tastes very good. If you have a chance, you can make it for My husband has a taste."
"Xia Ji's business is much smoother than expected..."
Xia Mingyue wrote four or five pages of letter paper, detailing some recent trivial matters. It is written clearly.
After I stopped writing, I looked at the dense words I had written, and then looked at the letter Lu Qiyan sent someone. I felt inexplicably irritated in my heart, and I simply crumpled all the letters I had just written into a ball. , spread out a new piece of paper and continued writing. (End of chapter)
