Chapter 202

At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the noon guests were finished.

Wu Zhizhen was too tired to eat, but she was in a good mood. She ran to her bedroom with Zhou Zhen and smoothed out the cash collected at noon on the bed.

"Husband, guess how much we charged at noon?"

Zhou Zhen calculated and said, "800?"

She nodded heavily. "Eight hundred and six, not counting the two tables in the coal preparation plant, otherwise there would be fifteen."

The profit of restaurants is easy to calculate. The profit of dishes is basically between 40% and 50%. Occasionally, some restaurants can exceed this limit.

In other words, just this lunch today, you can earn Liang Zhijun's salary of the previous month.

Of course, this is also because Zhou Zhen has this skill.

The two talked for a while without a word. Zhou Zhen went to the kitchen to count the rest of the dishes and was ready to go to the market to make up a little more.

"Liang Zhijun..."

Zhou Zhen came out of the kitchen. A young man in a suit and greasy face stopped in the yard on a motorcycle.

He was staring at Wu Zhizhen who came out. He didn't look at Zhou Zhen at all.

Wu Zhizhen was a little embarrassed by his stare. Zhou Zhen asked, "who are you?"

The young man woke up and got off the motorcycle. "Liang Zhijun, isn't he? You can. Your younger brothers and sisters are so beautiful. It's really a Golden Phoenix in the chicken nest!"

"How do you talk? Where is the chicken nest?"

He slapped himself gently and said with a smile, "look at my broken mouth... I'm Xiao Yuan and my father is Xiao Ruiwen."

Zhou Zhen saw his eyes clear. Although he was shocked by Wu Zhizhen at the beginning, he didn't feel dizzy at this time.

It's not surprising to be shocked by Wu Zhizhen's beauty, but it's rare to have clear eyes.

At least it shows that although this person is romantic, he is actually in a right mind and has a sense of propriety in doing things.

Zhou Zhen nodded. "Come in and talk, daughter-in-law. Pour him a cup of tea."

A big tea bucket was prepared in the restaurant. At noon, the drivers put it almost, leaving only a little residue and the water was cold.

Xiao Yuan and Zhou Zhen sat face to face at the low table in the second box. Seeing Wu Zhizhen put a cup of cold water in a disposable cup in front of him, they couldn't help laughing. "Sister in law, do you have any sisters? You don't need to be as beautiful as you. It's almost OK."

Wu Zhizhen said coldly, "No."

Xiao Yuan was not angry and said to Zhou Zhen, "Zhijun, do you know my purpose?"

"Well, how to say."

"This is my share. Do as you say. Tomorrow I'll give you 10000 cash, get some steel bars, canvas and build some sheds in the yard. I don't care about business. I'll give you what you want in the future."

"It's refreshing. I won't talk nonsense. You're responsible for industrial and commercial taxation and public funds. Let your daughter-in-law take care of the accounts later and settle the accounts once every three months."

"I'm not married yet. The accounts are simple. Let the accountant Hou of the coal preparation plant come and have a look every month. The key is to recruit a few more waiters and set up the stall."

In the evening, business became better and better, and because there were many people drinking at night, the banquet didn't break up until midnight.

Not to mention Wu Zhizhen, even Zhou Zhen is a little exhausted.

To cook, to clean up tables and chairs, but also to deal with those harassment for his daughter-in-law

When she went to bed at night, Zhou Zhen had only one idea and hurriedly recruited people.

Zhou Zhen wanted to recruit people, but without his trouble, many former colleagues came to him.

Many of the factory married rural wives, most of whom had no jobs.

Zhou Zhengang passed on his opinions to his colleagues who came to dinner. The next afternoon, several former colleagues came with their daughter-in-law.

Now the waiters in ice city cost about four or five hundred yuan a month. Zhou Zhen opened five hundred yuan and soon identified six waiters.

There are two morning shifts and four evening shifts every day. The morning shift starts at 9 o'clock and ends at 9 o'clock in the evening. The evening shift starts at 11 o'clock in the morning. The off-duty time is uncertain.

Although the time seems very long, in addition to being busy at noon and evening, I can freely arrange time in the afternoon. The actual working time is not long.

With them, Zhou Zhen hardly had to worry about everything. Except shopping and cooking in the morning, others were done.

Wu Zhizhen doesn't have to work anymore. She just needs to collect money and receive guests.

After opening a few days, the reputation of Zhizhen restaurant spread. It tastes good and is not expensive.

In particular, there are seven or eight dishes of fast food at noon and evening. Those drivers don't need to order. They come for ten yuan to make a fast food without delaying their departure.

Within a few days, Zhou Zhen had another assistant and two apprentices.

The assistant mainly makes big pot dishes for fast food. The two disciples help to decompose the dishes, learn to fry and learn to bake kebabs. Zhou Zhen is more relaxed.

Business is getting better and better. Every day there is a table in the yard, which can be filled.

Some people in the urban area have heard of Zhou Zhen's craft, including people who have come to eat for decades.

Xiao Yuan acted quickly. He had a father who was a factory director. He could use more social resources than Zhou Zhen.

In less than a week, several masters were arranged to put up steel pipe racks in the yard and get ten tents out.

Each tent can be equipped with four round tables and round benches, which greatly improves the reception capacity.

A big tent could have been set up, but this is the north. It can be three feet thick in heavy snow. The big tent is not resistant to snow pressure, so it is made into a small tent.

On May 16, when she opened for a whole month, Zhou Zhen made a serious account.

In one month, the turnover was more than 160000, with an average daily turnover of more than 5000.

However, there is still not much money on hand. Several surrounding units owe more than 40000 yuan.

If it were not for the cash collected by ordinary individual customers, they would have no money to buy vegetables.

"After all, the gross profit this month is 60000!"

"Well, excluding water, electricity and labor, the net profit is about 40000. There are many things delayed in the first half of the month. As long as we continue to maintain it, we should make 50000 or 60000 a month."

"Then I'll go to each unit to ask for money in the afternoon..." Xiao Yuan looked outside and said, "just know how much money we make. Don't let the waiters know.

Their daughter-in-law's mouth is not tight. You know, this restaurant makes so much money that there will be no fewer people playing autumn wind in the future. "

Of course, Zhou Zhen knew this truth. He glanced at Wu Zhizhen and said, "don't worry, we're not people who talk a lot."

After Xiao Yuan left, Wu Zhizhen sat next to Zhou Zhen and looked at the ledger with some uncontrollable excitement. "Husband, we have made nearly 30000 this month?"

Zhou Zhen was filled with emotion when she thought of the couple in the original plot who had no way back for a leather coat.

"Don't tell me how much money you earn. I'll buy you a mink coat for the new year."

She nodded excitedly, and her head tilted a few times on Zhou Zhen's arm. "It's a good day..."

In the evening, there are still many friends.

At almost eight o'clock, Xiao Yuan came into the kitchen. "Zhijun, I'm not busy now. Come here and I'll introduce you to some friends."

Xiao Yuan has a good character, so he has a wide range of friends.

He became a shareholder of the restaurant and often brought friends to eat and drink. Sometimes his friends paid for it themselves, and sometimes he invited him.

Last month, his income exceeded 10000. In the second and third tier cities in the north in 1999, he was definitely a high-income group, which was even more generous.

Zhou Zhen looked at the menu. There were only three or four dishes left for the guests. He said to master Wei, "master Wei, the braised meat is almost ready. Just wait for the pot. There are three vegetarian dishes. Please bother."

"It's all right. Go socializing."

Master Wei was originally a cook. He had a foundation. He studied with Zhou Zhen for more than half a month. Big dishes and hard dishes are worse than Zhou Zhen. Ordinary dishes are no worse than Zhou Zhen.

Zhou Zhen untied her apron, took off her hat and went out of the kitchen. Under a tent on the left side of the kitchen door, two disciples were baking kebabs, and the waiters were busy one by one.

When Wu Zhizhen saw Zhou Zhen coming out, she came over unhappily. "Xiao Yuan has a friend who speaks badly and is not a good man."

"Bully you?"

"It's hard to speak without hands."

Zhou Zhen wet her hands under the water pipe and grabbed half of the sawdust mixed with washing powder to wash her hands.

Wu Zhizhen was coveted, which Zhou Zhen had already prepared. They are now open to all kinds of people.

Like those drivers, they talk obscene one by one, but they usually joke and take advantage of their mouths in front of women.

Wu Zhizhen was not used to it at the beginning, but now she can basically pretend not to hear it.

Because she is hard to talk and doesn't like to laugh, the drivers named her cold beauty.

She now complains to Zhou Zhen, which means that she has gone beyond joking.

"Have you been here before? What do you look like?"

"Never. Surname Duan, tall and thin, with a long horse face."

Zhou Zhen touched her face with her cold hand. "I'll meet him. You're my daughter-in-law, so I can only take advantage of you, and no one else can."

Zhou Zhen has been instilling this idea into him, and completely conquered her in bed.

She was cold in front of outsiders. In fact, she had already been unlocked.

A woman will have no other ideas when her body and mind are satisfied.

Wu Zhizhen in the original play only made do with Liang Zhijun, but now she is Zhou Zhen's prisoner.

Sister Ma, the waiter over there, shouted, "landlady, there are table guests to pay."

"You go..."

Zhou Zhen wiped her hands and walked to the first box.

There are at least two tables in each room. Only the first box is dedicated to receiving leaders, and there is only one big table in it.

More than a dozen men and women sat full, and only Xiao Yuan moved a position beside him.

As soon as Zhou Zhen entered the house, he took out his cigarette and said with a smile, "if the reception is not good, everyone should eat well and give more advice."

Seeing Zhou Zhen coming in, a thin man with a long face said, "it's time for the boss's wife to accompany you when you drink. What's the meaning of drinking, an old man!"
