Chapter 15 Site Selection
"Brother Yang, how many copies did you sell the first time you set up a stall?" Ma Lu asked curiously.
“I remember it was about 5 servings. I heard the lady selling egg waffles next door said that this was a good score among newcomers, so I ate two servings myself and left the rest because I was worried about staying overnight. If it goes bad, I have to dump it all. As a result, my profit that day was a loss of more than 300 yuan.
“When I came back, I told my dad not to mess with me, he could still afford it if I just lay down. Me, if I really worked hard, maybe he would have to sell the house, but he got furious and beat me up. "
Brother Yang curled his lips, "You just plan to sell fried meat patties, are you so anxious to ask me for a plastic bag? Are you planning to set up the stall today? ”
"We have temporarily decided to try it out on a trial basis," Ma Lu said.
“How many ingredients have you prepared?”
“One hundred and fifty.”
“…………”
Xiao Yang Ge Zhang He opened his mouth and was about to say something when Lao Wang's voice came from the kitchen, "Okay."
Malu stood up, went to bring out the fried jackal patties that had just come out of the pan, and placed them in front of little Brother Yang.
Little Brother Yang sniffed twice and muttered, "It smells pretty good."
After saying that, he picked up the chopsticks, picked up the meat pie, and his expression changed after one bite. , "It's hot...why is it so juicy here?!"
Having said that, he didn't want to spit it out, and continued to chew on it while grinning.
Ma Lu said hurriedly, "Don't worry, don't worry, it's all yours, no one will compete with you."
In just half a minute, Brother Yang had a meatloaf in his stomach, and then he also ate the side dishes on the plate. He raised his head and said, "One more!"
Ma Lu was a little embarrassed, "The rest is We plan to sell it."
Little Yang didn't waste any time. He immediately took out his cell phone and photographed it on the table, "I'll scan it for you. How much does it cost?"
" 18 each.”
“How much?” Brother Yang was startled, “Your meatloaf is only half the size of a palm, so it’s a bit expensive.”
"Then are you willing to buy it?"
Brother Yang thought for a while and silently brought up the payment page, and Ma Lu also completed his first order of the day.
Looking at the extra 18 yuan in his WeChat account, Ma Lu felt refreshed.
It seems that setting up a stall is not that difficult. I have already started to make money before I even set up the stall.
Sending Brother Yang off, Malu looked at his watch, 11:25, which was just around the corner for lunch, and Lao Wang had also processed all the raw materials.
So Malu stopped talking nonsense and waved his hand, "Let's go and set up a stall to make money!"
The two of them loaded all the necessary kitchen utensils and ingredients onto the tricycle, and then set off eagerly.
Although he has never run a stall before, Ma Lu also knows the importance of location selection for a food stall.
A very simple and simple truth, places with a lot of people are bound to sell better than places with less people.
So before going out, Ma Lu had thought about it and planned to sell it under the office building.
12 o'clock happens to be the lunch break time for most companies. At that time, a large number of hungry white-collar workers will pour out of the office building and wander around like zombies looking for food. It is a good time for fried jackal patties to show off their skills.
However, as soon as Ma Lu arrived near the first office building, a security guard came over and warned, "No stalls are allowed here!"
Ma Lu did not argue when he saw this and turned the handlebars. , heading towards the next place. Ten minutes later, he came to the next street. There were many office buildings here, and more importantly, there were many stalls on the side of the road. It seemed that there were no security guards.
So Ma Lu stopped the car and planned to set up the stall as well, but at this time the big brother selling bacon flatbreads opposite suddenly came over.
"Let's put it somewhere else."
"Huh?"
"We have already occupied this place."
Ma Lu looked around, "But this is not Is there a lot of open space?”
“Let’s put it somewhere else, otherwise it will affect our business,” the lady selling box lunches on the side also interjected.
Malu looked at the old woman selling rice balls on the other side, the couple making hamburgers, and even the little brother selling lemon tea, who had no competition with him... all looked at him with a somewhat unkind look.
Ma Lu immediately understood that he had encountered a reserved venue. There was no point in arguing at this time. The vendors in this area had united and excluded outsiders. Maybe even the nearby security guards had been bribed.
Ma Lu took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it over, "Brother, add one of us, we will sell for an hour, and we will leave immediately after an hour, and we will never come here again. . ”
The eldest brother selling bacon flatbreads didn’t smoke, but his face improved a lot. They put a lot of effort into setting up a stall here, and they didn’t want to be taken advantage of by outsiders.
Yesterday at noon, two college students wanted to sell juice here, but they worked together to drive them away. The two sides even broke out into a quarrel and had a big fight. They were very angry and delayed a lot. Spend less time doing business.
On the contrary, Ma Lu looked at him, although he was very young, but he was obviously very experienced. However, the big brother selling bacon flatbreads still shook his head and said, "No, we have agreed not to add more people."
After a pause, he added, "But you can walk two more intersections. There is a subway entrance over there, and the flow of people is not bad. I placed it there before."
"Okay. , Thank you very much.”
Ma Lu guessed that it would be difficult to find a location in a nearby office building at noon, so he could only settle for the next best thing and try to go near the subway entrance.
If it still doesn't work, we can only tell the tragic story of Lao Wang's wife and children and his mental disorder and tell everyone about it.
Fortunately, there were no more troubles at the subway entrance, and the vendors selling other things nearby were also more polite. When they saw Ma Lu and Lao Wang running the stall, someone came up to help them, a man with a Henan accent.
While helping, he did not forget to hold up his mobile phone to broadcast live, "Family members, there is a new member joining the Guojiazhuang stall group today. He is a very handsome young man and his... dad?"
"Roommate." Ma Lu corrected, opening a pack of cigarettes and giving one to the man who came to help.
“Eh, yes, yes, it’s true, the little brothers look like they are the ones causing big troubles.”
The man took the cigarette and continued talking to the phone, “Did you see that? , Family members, no matter what you do, you have to be able to get into trouble. This society is like a river and lake. There are three gangs for a good man, so even Yang Guo has to be matched with a eagle."
Malu glanced at his mobile phone while he was speaking. The upper right corner showed 67 people online, and then he looked at the name of the live broadcast room - Zen Life.
A bit difficult to rate.
However, the old man is really enthusiastic. After helping, he said that he would take care of the business of Xiama Lu on the first day and help him. However, his face changed slightly when he heard that a small meatloaf costs 18 yuan. , he didn’t mention it again after that, and sat back in front of the stall where he sold Buddhist beads bracelets and continued chatting with his family.
Ma Lu put the printed A4 paper on the signboard, and Lao Wang on the other side also heated up the oil.
Everything is ready, all that's left now is the guests.
Thank you for the rewards of children’s boots such as Bai Bai Dian Tang, Feng Ya Zhi Ren, Tian Hu Bu Shen Chuang, Qian Qi Yuan,
and Le Ma Xiaoka~
