Chapter 68: Opening Ribbon Cutting


The afternoon before Xiangmanlou opened, Yi Ba quietly called me aside.

"Brother in the first year of junior high school, Xiangmanlou is opening, and we need someone to cut the ribbon."

"Who do you want me to invite?" I asked.

"It's fine for all dignitaries. The heavier the weight, the better."

Yi Ba is a typical guy who can stand and talk without pain in his back. It was as if, in his opinion, the streets were full of dignitaries and dignitaries, and he could just pick one up.

Where can I find dignitaries? The only person who can be related to these four words and might give me some face is Song Xi.

I took out my cell phone and dialed Song Xi’s number.

"Is the sun rising in the west today? Master Chuyi actually took the initiative to call me. I'm so honored, little girl!" This girl Song Xi teased me as soon as she opened her mouth. .

"Since you are so honored, just help me with something!" I said.

"You really shine brightly with a little sunshine? Are you serious about making a joke?" Song Xi said to me, and then asked: "What's going on?"

"I've partnered with others to open Jiaxiangmanlou. It will open tomorrow. Can you come and help me gain popularity? It would be even better if you can help me find someone with some weight to cut the ribbon." I said bluntly. said.

“Is it weighty?” Song Xi hesitated and asked, “Am I considered weighty?”

“You have such a good figure and are so slim, so you definitely don’t have enough weight!” I said .

"Zhao Chuyi, are you very demanding? Do you know that there are many big bosses who beg me to appear when they open their business, but I won't go. I am willing to help you cut the ribbon, but you actually said Not enough?" Song Xi was really angry, and she was just pretending!

"Of course I am very happy when you cut the ribbon for me! Aren't I afraid of the impact on your father? Now is the time to decide whether he can rise to the top because of Xiangman Something went wrong with the opening of the building, and I can't bear the responsibility." I said seriously.

"People who are still in office are really not suitable to attend such an event. Well, I will try my best to contact you and see if I can invite someone who has achieved success and retired."
< br>Song Xi gave me such a promise and then hung up the phone.

“Brother Chu Yi is still awesome. He managed to get Song Xi with just a few words.” This guy Yi Ba falsely praised me.

"Is there anything else we need to prepare?" I asked Yi Ba.

"The first day of opening tomorrow will definitely be full. Although Bai Yongchang has transferred his family business, his connections are still there. Many of his previous business partners will come Support." Yi Badao.

Qian San is the chef, and the other chefs, bosses, waiters, etc. are all experienced people that Bai Mengting poached from big restaurants in the city. They can be used directly without training.

At eleven o'clock at noon, all the things needed for the opening, such as flower baskets and firecrackers, were ready, and the guests Bai Yongchang invited also came one after another.

There is still a quarter of an hour before the ribbon-cutting. Why hasn’t Song Xi come yet? She didn't answer the phone when I called her. Could it be that that girl was trying to let me go?

Just when I was thinking wildly, the familiar Prado finally appeared in front of me.

"You're finally here!" I said with relief.

"I came here just in time for you to cut the ribbon, but it turned out to be a few minutes early." Song Xi smiled mischievously.

"So, you made me anxious on purpose, right?" I asked.

"Who told you to be so disrespectful to me on the phone yesterday?" Song Xi said.

I looked into the Prado and found that there was no one else except Song Xi.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to hire someone to cut the ribbon for me?” I asked.

"I'm not invited, can't I?" Song Xi said seriously.

"You'd better not trick your father and let you cut the ribbon. Why don't Yi Ba and I do it ourselves. One of us is the well-known Master of Chuyi, and the other is the host of An Qingguan." I road.

At this moment, a Crown drove over. The rear door opened and an old man got out of the car.

Professor Jiang? Song Xi actually invited Professor Jiang here.

"How about it? Is the person I invited to cut the ribbon for you worthy enough?" Song Xi asked me.

According to rumors, the city's largest real estate company once invited Professor Jiang to cut the ribbon, but he didn't even go. Today, when I open my Xiang Man Building, I actually invited him here. This face is as big as it needs to be!

Professor Jiang has retired a long time ago. It won’t have much impact if he comes out to cut ribbons or something. After all, on the surface, he is just a person with a pension, idle at home, and without any real power! As long as he doesn't do anything illegal, no one will care about him.

The opening day was a success, and that guy Qian San was also very awesome. The King Rabbit he made was praised by all the customers who came.

People like Professor Jiang were invited to cut the ribbon, and the opening of Xiangmanlou became the biggest news of the day in Fengyang County. Big news has been made, even if the location is a little off, it will have no impact!

Bai Mengting is responsible for the operation and management of Xiangmanlou, and Qian San is in charge of the kitchen. Yi Ba and I had nothing to do, so we became the hands-off shopkeepers.

It was an instant hit, the food tastes guaranteed and the price is very affordable. Although the environment is a bit rough, the daily business is still good. As long as you go to Xiangmanlou for meals, you have to wait for a seat.

Xiangmanlou is on the right track, and Yi Ba and I don’t have to worry about anything anymore. It is Yi Ba's mission to revive Anqingguan. As for me, I have to guard the Xinsheng Pavilion and don't ruin the master's reputation.

That evening, I was about to go out for dinner, and that guy Yi Ba came here leisurely.

“We haven’t been to Old Man Kong for a long time, why don’t we go and have a drink with him?” Yi Ba said.

"Okay!" I nodded and said, "Let's forget about the braised goose this time and go to Xiangmanlou to pack a portion of Overlord Rabbit! It's been so many days since we opened, and we haven't invited Kong yet. The old man has eaten it!”

Yi Ba and I went to Xiangmanlou and packed up a portion of Overlord Rabbit and some cold dishes. We took a taxi and headed towards Wuqing Mountain.

When he walked to the small hut, Old Man Kong was tending to his cabbage.

“It’s already dark, but we’re still busy!” I shouted to Old Man Kong.

"You two haven't been here for several days." Old Man Kong said.

"Recently, we opened a small restaurant in partnership with the Bai family and Qian San. We were a little busy the past few days, and we have a little free time today." I took over the words and said: " The Overlord Rabbit from Qiansan Lane is very delicious. We packed a portion and have a drink tonight.”

"The Xiangmanlou you opened was an instant hit! People like me who live in the mountains have heard about the prosperity on the opening day," said Old Man Kong.

Although the Overlord Rabbit we packed was freshly made, after all, it had been more than an hour and it was already a little cold. Old Man Kong took it and heated it up, and then the three of us sat at the table and started eating and drinking.

“Is it a bit too much for Brother Chu Yi and me to help the Bai family like this?” Yi Ba asked Old Man Kong.

“As long as you make conscience money, it’s not an exaggeration.” Old Man Kong picked up a piece of rabbit meat, put it in his mouth, and said, “The taste is okay, and it’s worthy of your price.”
< br>“Business has been pretty good in the past few days since it opened, and it’s full every day. I roughly calculated After a while, excluding labor costs, the daily profit is less than 2,000 yuan. After a month of hard work, the profit is only 50,000 yuan, which is about 10,000 yuan per person. It's okay, but I'm afraid Qian San won't be willing," Yi Ba said.

"The comeback starts with hardship! More than ten thousand a month is already a lot. As for the money, if he doesn't follow you, he won't be able to do business."

Old Man Kong He took a sip of wine and said: "You have already helped the Bai family. Whether it is Bai Yongchang or Bai Mengting, they are all struggling in the business world. Well done, win over people and stabilize Qian San, so don't worry about it. If he can't deal with a small Qian San, then stop talking about making a comeback."
< br>"I'm not afraid of anything else. The main reason is that I joined San in order to get money. I deceived him, saying that one person would earn at least 40,000 to 50,000 yuan a month." Yi Ba said with some embarrassment. "I helped Bai Yongchang and dug a hole for him at the same time. This is cause and effect. I can't blame you. After all, you have never done business before, so your calculations are all confusing. Qian San has opened a restaurant, can he not hear it? Is your account wrong? The reason why he agreed to join the gang was because he saw clearly that he could only follow you. However, with Qian San's personality, at some point, he might use your promise to find Bai Yongchang. Let’s talk about some conditions,” Old Man Kong said.
