Chapter 357 Must Buy a Big Supermarket

Gu Jianhua and his wife's large hotel in Soho, Gu's Restaurant, was completely renovated at the end of May and was ready to open for business.

I checked the almanac and found that June 3rd (May 8th in the lunar calendar) is a good day to open a business.

We chose to open on June 3rd.

The opening of such a large store required a whole opening ceremony, so Su He and Gu Jianhua notified their relatives and friends to come and show their support.

New store opening, benefits!

Within one month of opening, all customers who dine in the restaurant will receive a 20% discount!

Everyone was impressed by Gu Jianhua and his wife from Su He. They opened one shop after another. When they went in to take a look, they were amazed by the decoration of the restaurant.

"Oh my God, aunt, the decoration is so beautiful. There are sofas, closets, TVs, and even air conditioning!" Mingyue was shocked when she went upstairs to see it.

Not to mention the TV and sofa, but the air conditioner, oh, one costs at least four thousand dollars!

"Aunt, is every private room configured like this?"

Su He, "Yes, we spent more than one million just on the renovation."

Their big hotel is very luxuriously decorated and has a very good environment inside. Before the renovation, Su He looked through the system books and had never thought of placing a TV or installing an air conditioner in the private room.

But since you have decided to go for the high-end route, the environment in your store must be good. Otherwise, if the environment in the store is just average and your prices are still so high, customers will be unwilling to pay.

Mingyue was convinced, "Aunt, you are so generous. What is this? Is it cowhide? And this is a stone?"

"Yes, it's cowhide, and this is meat stone."

"Aunt, you even put flowers on the table! They're so beautiful!"

The private rooms on the second and third floors are decorated very high-endly. Clothes can actually be hung on coat racks, but Su He felt that guests' clothes would be stained with food smell or get dirty, so he placed a large solid wood wardrobe in each private room.

It looks great, and there are display cabinets to showcase items.

Of course, this cabinet is purely for display purposes, and it is filled with some strange ornaments or various books.

In addition to these two cabinets, there is also a five-compartment cabinet for storing items, a disinfection cabinet, a sideboard for storing tableware, and a TV cabinet.

This is on the floor. There are also decorations on the wall, but each private room is different. Some have framed maps, some have cowhide or oil paintings, or Chinese paintings.

Anyway, the decoration of each private room is different.

The table in the private room is a round table with a turntable on it. Su He put a bouquet of flowers in a vase and placed it on the turntable. The vase was not an ordinary vase, but a ceramic vase.

It looks especially beautiful when you put flowers on it and place it on the table.

Anyway, she runs a flower shop and can provide fresh flowers every day, and she doesn't have to spend money to buy them from other places.

Some of these things were bought by Su He from outside, and some were given by the system, such as the meat stone and cowhide, which were all given by the system.

There is also the issue of installing a TV. Besides wanting to improve the grade, there is another reason: if it is a family dinner or a gathering among friends, people may bring their children along for the meal.

We all know that children can't sit still and will run around when they are full. In this case, put on the TV for the children to watch, and they will sit down and watch TV obediently.

Then the adults can eat and drink in peace.

There are ten private rooms on the second floor and ten private rooms on the third floor.

Each floor has four large private rooms, accommodating twelve to sixteen people.

The others are for ten people.

In addition to the decoration of the private rooms, the decoration of the corridors is also very beautiful. There are cabinets for employees to store their belongings, which are also made of solid wood. The lobby on the second and third floors are furnished with solid wood furniture, and flowers and plants are placed on various cabinets in the corridors.

That’s how Gu’s restaurant was opened.

The chef's dishes are delicious, the hotel environment is nice, and the service is good. What reason do guests have not to come and eat?

The store was packed every day after it opened, which was better than Su He and Gu Jianhua had expected.

At the beginning of July, the monthly turnover of Gu's Restaurant came out and directly exceeded one million.

Su He and Gu Jianhua were satisfied.

Gu Jianhua, "Wife, you are still creative. You figured out the minimum consumption."

Su He smiled, "Our private room is so well equipped, with air conditioning, TV, and one-on-one service. They must spend more."

There is no minimum consumption for the first floor lobby and first floor booths.

There are tables on the second and third floors. The minimum consumption for a table of ten is NT$300, and for tables of fourteen or sixteen people, the minimum consumption is NT$500.

Of course, this condition is a bit harsh, right? When people come to your restaurant to eat, you still set a minimum consumption, and a meal costs 300 yuan?

How much do people earn per month nowadays?

But sorry, they are a high-end restaurant. If you sit in a private room, you must order dishes worth at least 300 yuan.

To be honest, the private rooms upstairs are only for rich people!

Of course, the guests who dine in the private rooms are all wealthy people, and the consumption of each table is no less than three hundred.

After all, the dishes in their restaurant are quite expensive, and the patrons who dine in the private room are usually more than six people. They order four cold dishes, eight hot dishes, drinks, staple food, and fruit plates. All this comes to almost three hundred yuan.

Gu Jianhua, "If you say that money attracts more people, our dishes are so expensive, but we still have many customers coming to eat every day."

There are many poor people in this world, and there are also many rich people.

The cheapest cold dish they have is only ten yuan a plate.

"Well, there is always a shortage of rich people anyway."

Su He has noticed this since she opened the hot pot restaurant and beauty salon, especially the beauty salon. The skin care, treatments and massages in her beauty salon are not cheap.

It costs at least one hundred yuan to consume once.

But the ladies didn't care.

Su He thinks that some things have to be more expensive. Otherwise, if you sell them cheaply, customers will think your products are not good.

For example, customers who come to their hotel to spend money probably have the mentality that they are inviting friends or partners to dine, which gives them face and shows their sincerity.

After all, their hotel not only has delicious food and a nice environment, but also very good service. One waiter is responsible for one private room.

Serving tea and water to guests literally means serving tea and water, changing bone plates and cigarette holders. It is a one-to-one service that other hotels do not have.

"Wife, we are considered rich now, right?" Gu Jianhua said with a smile.

The combined revenue of all stores in June was over 2 million.

More than 20 million a year.

Su He shook his head, "How can we be considered rich? We are just small-time workers. Only those with an annual profit of over 100 million can be considered rich!"

"One hundred million? That still leaves eighty million short!"

Gu Jianhua felt overwhelmed just thinking about it. How many stores would he have to open to make 100 million yuan a year?

Su He, "I think that if we open all the stores in Haishi, including the two dance halls and the western restaurant, the monthly revenue of these stores combined should be around 500,000 or 600,000."

"Oh, by the way, I have to open my maternity and baby store as well."

Gu Jianhua, "When will it open?"

Su He, "In the second half of the year, let's find someone to renovate it before we go to Hai City. It will take about three months. Renovating a maternity store is not as troublesome as decorating a restaurant. It can be done quickly."

Gu Jianhua nodded, "Okay."

"Wife, we still need to open a large store. Let's buy a big supermarket like a department store next year."

Su He: "Okay, buy it."

She said she couldn't save the money.

Buying a large supermarket with four or five floors would cost at least several million!

However, what Gu Jianhua said is true. Large stores are more profitable. Although their costs are high, their profits are also high.

"Jianhua, we will buy shops until 1990. After 1990, we will buy houses and land. What do you think?"

In the past, Suho didn’t dare to think about land because it was not cheap and required a minimum of several million. But now, they dare to think about it.

By 1990, she had opened at least 40 shops and had enough money to buy a piece of land worth 20 million yuan.

"Land? That's fine too."

Gu Jianhua felt that tremendous changes had taken place in the country since the reform and opening up. If they bought the land, there might be developers who would develop it in the future, and they would make a profit!

People are really greedy. Gu Jianhua used to think that as long as his bakery business was good, earning a hundred yuan a month would be good. Later, he thought that earning a thousand yuan a month would be a big profit.

Later, his wife opened a shop, and he thought that if the combined income of several shops could reach 10,000 yuan per month, he would become rich!

Later, my monthly income reached 100,000, 300,000, 500,000, 1 million, and now 2 million!

But now two million is not enough, because his wife has set a goal of annual income of one hundred million.

One hundred million, so the monthly income must reach ten million.

At least nine million!

There are still 7 million to be earned!

They are a couple who really started their own business in middle age!
