"We want this franchise deposit not to swallow your franchise fee, but to ensure the brand reputation of Shiweiji and to ensure the consistency of taste. Only in this way can we make a brand bigger and better."

"Of course, the quality of our meat raw materials is guaranteed. We have our own cooperative duck and pig farms in Xiahe Village."

"Duck farms and pig farms strictly follow scientific breeding methods, which can ensure the taste of meat ingredients."

"As for the source of rabbit meat, you can rest assured. We are cooperating with the Agricultural University. Professor Chen of the Agricultural University personally guides us in scientific rabbit breeding."

"The marinade package is made of dozens of precious tonic herbs and spices ground into powder. We cooperate with Jishidiang in the source of medicinal materials to ensure that every link is done to the best. The purpose is to let customers eat a bite of safe and delicious braised food."

With the opening of Wangfujing Shiweiji, Shiweiji’s braised dishes have become famous. This time, more than a dozen people came to join the franchise with the intention of joining.

Originally, everyone had concerns about the huge franchise fee of 8,000 yuan.

Some people think that to make braised dishes, all you have to do is prepare a marinating seasoning package and add some meat to braise.

After Lu Baiwei's explanation, I learned that in order to make braised dishes taste better, Shiweiji has strict data records and guidance for every link, whether it is the source of meat, the selection of marinade packages, the marinating time, etc.

And of the 8,000 yuan franchise fee, 5,000 yuan can be refunded after five years as agreed in the contract.

Part of it can also be used to offset the purchase of marinade packets and meat ingredients.

Moreover, Shiweiji also has a dedicated cooperative construction team that can help design and decorate the shop so that it is exactly the same style as the main store.

Just as Boss Lu said, this will create a chain brand effect, and when people want to eat braised dishes, they will think of Shiweiji.

Originally, Lu Baiwei was too young and was still a student at Kyoto University. More than a dozen franchisees had concerns about joining Shiweiji. However, when Su Changyao and Gu Min stood there, especially the noble demeanor of Su Changyao, it was obvious that he came from an extraordinary family.

After learning that Su Changyao was the successor of Yuxiangyuan, those who wanted to join the franchise no longer had any concerns.

They all took the contract that Gu Min had printed out and handed to them to read.

Because Lu Baiwei paid to put an advertisement in the newspaper, too many people came, exceeding the expected number, and the private room of Shiweiji was a little crowded. Several bosses moved stools and sat at the door to listen to Lu Baiwei and Su Changyao introduce the situation of Shiweiji.

After Lu Baiwei dispelled everyone's concerns and worries and entered the contract signing stage, an elderly couple sitting at a table in the corner of the hall near the private room kept looking inside.

Seeing Lu Baiwei sitting down to sign the contract, the old lady even stood up excitedly and wanted to look at Lu Baiwei across the crowd.

It was the old man who pulled her clothes that finally made the old lady reluctantly take her gaze away from Lu Baiwei.

This old couple is Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu, who came secretly to visit their granddaughter.

Being pulled to sit down by the old man, the old lady couldn't suppress her excitement and whispered into Mr. Lu's ear.

"Old man, see, our granddaughter might have done it."

She pulled Mr. Lu's sleeve excitedly and said, "Old man, did you hear what my granddaughter said just now?"

"That little mouth is chattering away, maybe she said something."

"She doesn't talk like Yuanze, who is taciturn. She's more like the second son. I think my granddaughter is good at doing ideological work for others. She will be most suitable for the job of political commissar in the future."

"Old woman, please stop it!"

"It's obvious from my granddaughter that she doesn't like being controlled by others. She loves making money and doing business."

"Now that our country is developing its economy, doing business is a viable option."

"The second son is already a political commissar, the third son is a researcher, and Yuanze is in charge of the Ministry of Commerce. Her uncle has a heavier burden, so it's enough to have a man to carry it. As a girl, you can do whatever you like."

"Our Lu family's granddaughter doesn't have so many rules and regulations."

"Yes, that's the reason."

As Mrs. Lu was talking, she couldn't help herself and said, "Old man, stop pulling my clothes. I want to take a look at my granddaughter."

"Don't, don't turn around and get spotted. Look how many times the waiter in the store has looked at you."

"Old woman, please bear with it for now!"

"Just think about it, my granddaughter and her mother have had such a hard time these years. We two old guys are too embarrassed to see our granddaughter until the people who hurt Yuehe get their comeuppance."

"Just bear with it for a while. The boss is going to see Secretary Feng today."

"Wait until our boss moves the Feng family's support to the Zhang family, and then we'll see why the Zhang family is still so arrogant."

It's really heartbreaking that I can't recognize my granddaughter right away.

After being stopped again and again, Mrs. Lu became as wilted as an eggplant hit by frost.

"Before I leave, can you take one more look at my granddaughter?"

As she spoke, Mrs. Lu stood on tiptoe again and looked through the door of the private room to see the scene of the signing of the franchise contract inside.

Her obvious action was seen by the waiter in the store.

"Mother-in-law, what else would you like to add?"

"Yes, yes, yes, the braised dishes in your store are delicious. I want to pack some for my son and grandson. I want two spiced rabbits, one spicy rabbit, three braised ducks, and two servings of the braised dish platter."

I didn't expect that the old couple who looked inconspicuous were actually big customers. The waitress turned around with an enthusiastic look on her face and went to pack the braised dishes for them.

Old Mrs. Lu called her and said, "By the way, what is your franchise for?"

"Do you want to pay me money to help open a braised food shop?"

"Look, we old couple, we have too much free time after retirement, so we want to open a braised food shop to pass the time."

As for how to run the store in the future, it will be left to the sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren to worry about.

Old Mrs. Lu thought that even if she didn't acknowledge her granddaughter for the time being, opening this franchise store would be an opportunity to communicate closely with her granddaughter.

She suddenly had an idea and thought of opening this franchise store. She looked at the old man who always liked to pull her clothes, with an indescribable sense of pride on her face.

Mr. Lu had a headache. It was unexpected that she had the idea of ​​opening a braised food shop.

However, this is indeed an opportunity to get close to my granddaughter.

As for who will be in charge of the store, that is the job of the filial sons and daughters-in-law. He thought the same as the old woman and left it to his sons and daughters-in-law to worry about.

As for the several thousand yuan required to join a marinated food store and the investment required to open a shop, the old couple has no shortage of it.

Upon learning that their youngest son was of royal blood, the couple were overjoyed. They were so excited that they couldn't sleep in their old house outside Beijing. The old lady even took out her ancestral bracelet, intending to give it to her granddaughter as an heirloom.

Who made the Lu family give birth to so many sons and grandsons? They, the old couple, have never had any granddaughters!

The Lu family’s granddaughter is so precious and must be treated well.
