Chapter 126
After deciding on the ingredients, the next step is to decide on the price.
The prices of large and small pots vary depending on the type of ingredients. Larger portions of the same type will be more discounted.
Pork offal porridge, small portion 1 yuan / large portion 1.8 yuan
Fish porridge, small portion 1.2 yuan / large portion 2.2 yuan
Minced meat and mustard greens porridge, small portion 0.80 yuan / large portion 1.5 yuan
On the day when the Shenggun porridge was launched, it received enthusiastic response. Some people even went to the convenience store to call people and asked their friends to come and drink the porridge together.
The influx of diners made it seem like their preparations were too conservative.
Su Yu hurriedly went to buy 10 small clay pots. The diners placed steaming hot porridge in front of them one or several people, and ate it slowly by spooning it into small bowls.
There were a few side dishes on the table as usual, and now there was also a seasoning and dipping sauce.
In order to avoid waste and ensure the taste, garlic dipping sauce is prepared in advance in a large bowl, and two small bowls are filled with chili peppers and hot pepper rings next to it, which diners can take as needed.
With the addition of Shenggun Zhou, the already bustling Su Ji has seen an even greater flow of customers, and now people really have to take a number and queue up.
Su Miao took out the small stool that he used to set up a stall and placed it on the side of the store door so that customers waiting could sit down and rest.
Seeing this, some regular customers asked Su Miao, "Miss, do you have any spare tables and chairs? I see there's a lot of space in front of your store, so it shouldn't be a problem to set up two more tables."
Su Miao looked outside. The weather was clear and there was no wind. It was not a bad idea to do it outside, but he was afraid that the neighbors would have objections if he occupied a public area.
As if sensing her concern, the old lady at the opposite shop said, "Miao, go ahead and set up your stall. The road is so wide, it won't cause any disturbance. Everyone puts whatever they have in front of their doorsteps on a daily basis. There's no need to be so particular."
Su Miao finally felt relieved and pulled Brother Yu to the utility room to move the tables. There were still three sets of tables left from the previous store piled there.
A waiting area was arranged on the left side of the gate, and there was space on the right side for two more tables. Su Yu brought water to wipe all the tables and chairs clean, and then called Jiang Fengyi to move them out together.
Su Miao thought that adding two tables would ease the waiting situation a little, but he didn't expect that the diners' immersed eating on the street attracted more people to try it.
However, the ingredients prepared today are limited and they were used up at just after one o'clock, so customers who want to eat porridge do not need to queue up anymore and can only come earlier tomorrow.
The Chinese New Year is only 8 days away. Ye Han takes Ye Jiayin back to Beijing. Before leaving, he gives the key to the Moon Gate to Su Miao and Su Yuanzheng, asking them to help look after it during the winter vacation.
The Su family is very busy every day. There is no other way, the business is really good!
They have taken on a new business of delivering braised rice from another company, and more and more people are coming to eat their porridge. Many neighbors know their tradition of taking a break on weekends, and they have advised them not to take a break before the New Year.
"Now is the time when Shenggunzhou is making a name for itself. All the customers coming here are new. They don't know your weekend rest rules. It would be bad if they were to leave empty-handed."
"Yes, now you have put up a sign with your closing hours written on it. New customers will know when they see it. After the New Year, you can just go back to normal."
"Yes, yes, I haven't eaten enough yet. Didn't you say that you were going back to the county for the New Year, so you wanted to take a longer break?"
Su Yuanzheng nodded: "Yes, I want to have a good rest. I also need to go back to my hometown to worship my ancestors. I will go back on the 29th and open the business on the 8th."
Su Miao thought about it and felt that the idea of continuous operation was feasible, but the decision not to close for the time being had to be notified to the employees. After all, it was agreed upon when they were hired that they would have one day off a week.
"Sister Yingzi, Brother Feng, the store is bustling right now. We're thinking of not taking a break this weekend and moving it to the Chinese New Year. That way, we can have a longer break than others, which is a way to make up for it. Do you think this will work?"
Jiang Fengyi nodded immediately: "Sure, what's wrong with that? It's a bit busy, but not tiring at all. It's not like I'm doing hard labor. I'm happy chatting and laughing with the guests every day!"
Yingzi also agreed: "In fact, there is no need to specially adjust us. Just follow the store's needs. We come when it's working and we don't come when it's off. There is no need to give us extra time off."
"Hehe! A long vacation is definitely necessary. I also want my dad and the others to have a good rest, and I also want to go somewhere else to play. My idea is to try this vacation adjustment this time.
If possible, we can continue to do this when we have such long holidays in the future, so that it will be more convenient for you to travel and do things. "
"no problem!"
Su Ji made "adjustments" for many of the following holidays, and Su Miao was very satisfied with his idea of adjusting his holidays.
It was not until 1999 that the Ministry of Culture and Tourism formally proposed the concept of "adjusted leave" for all the people. In 2008, the adjusted leave system was officially implemented in China.
Starting from this year, China's vacation system underwent major adjustments, combining traditional holidays with weekends to form a new vacation model.
China's statutory public holidays include New Year's Day, Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Labor Day, Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day. The holidays for these holidays are concentrated by adjusting the weekend.
A major purpose of adjusting vacation time is to "boost the economy and stimulate domestic demand." In simple terms, it means making the vacation longer without increasing vacation time so that everyone has time to travel and consume.
This method was ridiculed by workers. They said there were no holidays in the world, but if there were more days to adjust, there would be holidays.
The original intention of "adjusting holidays" was good, but the excessive pursuit of combining holidays has made the workers miserable. Some positions cannot even guarantee a weekend off, and some people have to work for more than half a month to get a three-day holiday.
This kind of "trickery" that does not take into account the physical and mental experience of frontline workers has also caused a great response. "Fake holidays" have become a new burden, and foreign friends have also called it strange.
However, Su Miao, who had started "adjusting holidays" earlier, did the opposite at that time and established his own holiday system in the group.
National holidays must be taken, and required make-up shifts will not be made up. Due to the particularity of the catering industry, rest time is definitely different from that of administrative shifts, but the group's positions ensure that there are sufficient staff to work in shifts.
By that time, the business had already grown to a certain scale, and the store could operate 24 hours a day, all year round.
The main focus is to ensure that employees have adequate rest so that they can devote more energy to work.
High salaries, high benefits and humane management make employees very loyal to the group, and the warm group culture makes employees feel a sense of belonging.
Many people are eager to work in Su Miao's group. For a period of time, the application ratio for front-line positions was even equal to the application ratio for civil service examinations.
