Chapter 163 I bought this yard
"The problem now is that we have a lot of people and the pressure of wage costs is very high. Master Dong, Tingting, Jianjun, do you have any good suggestions?"
After becoming a contractor, Du Shaojie held a meeting, and the participants included Dong Jun, Huang Tingting, Xiao Jianjun, etc.
"I think we can add new varieties, such as breakfast, we can add meat buns, bone soup, hemp garden, etc."
Xiao Jianjun is mainly responsible for breakfast, so he suggested enriching the variety of breakfast, and then make adjustments based on the sales situation for a period of time.
"The snacks at noon are also a bit monotonous, can we add some variety? In addition to [big plate chicken belt noodles], we can also consider adding [braised pork rice], [fish-flavored shredded pork rice], etc."
What Dong Jun proposed was actually the concept of fast food.
It's just that he just had a vague idea and didn't think it through.
"I suggest that in addition to selling [pepper and hemp chicken], we can also add [Dezhou Braised Chicken]. Of course, this requires Manager Du to provide a secret recipe spice package."
Huang Tingting first thought of [Dezhou Braised Chicken]. She witnessed how busy Su Dapeng was, and it must be profitable.
She proposed it to Du Shaojie for consideration, and she would not say anything extra.
"Everyone's suggestions are good, but things have to be done one by one. Jianjun, I agree to enrich the variety of breakfast. You try it first, go ahead and do it, I will check it for you."
Du Shaojie affirmed the suggestions made by several people and decided to increase the variety of breakfast first, and then consider the fast food at noon.
As for [Dezhou Braised Chicken], he thought about it and felt that it was unnecessary.
Sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing to have too many varieties. It is better to concentrate on [Pepper Chicken] and never destroy your own brand.
After the meeting.
Du Shaojie asked people to prepare the ingredients and personally made a pot of [Braised Pork]. The portion of this pot was not large, and it was brought to the front at mealtime and sold by portion with rice.
"Braised Pork Rice! There is a new variety again, come, give me one portion to try."
Customers came one after another, and everyone saw the changes today.
The braised pork looks soft and tender, and the smell alone can arouse people's appetite. A customer immediately ordered one and exclaimed that it was delicious after eating it. This is what it means to eat meat.
A small pot of [braised pork] with rice was sold out quickly and received unanimous praise.
A customer even asked specifically: "Will you still make [braised pork] tomorrow? If so, I can bring more people to eat."
Dong Jun turned his head and glanced at Du Shaojie. Du Shaojie nodded, and he gave the other party a positive answer.
The customer left happily, and at the same time spread the news that the snack bar had added [braised pork rice].
"Manager Du, your first move is really extraordinary."
Dong Jun watched Du Shaojie's process of frying [braised pork] from beginning to end, and also tasted the taste. This praise was really not flattery.
"Master Dong, after today, make this amount every day for a period of time, and then slowly increase it according to the effect. In addition, I'm afraid you will have to make [braised pork], I can teach you to make it for a few days."
Then, Du Shaojie handed the preparation of this dish to Dong Jun.
It doesn't matter if Dong Jun doesn't do it well, he can give him some pointers. In this industry, besides qualifications, the key is to look at the level of personal skills. As the saying goes, the master is the teacher, and no one thinks there is anything wrong with this.
"Okay, okay, please give me more advice, Manager Du."
Dong Jun was overjoyed. Generally, no one would teach skills casually unless they were in a master-apprentice relationship.
Du Shaojie's ability was there, and he was convinced. If he could learn how to cook a few more dishes from him, it would be of great benefit to him.
One was willing to teach, and the other was willing to learn, and the two hit it off.
Before leaving work in the evening, the finance department checked today's accounts. Du Shaojie went to take a look and found that today's full-day turnover was 1,600 yuan, which was quite good.
After all, the current prices are low, and the [big plate of chicken belt noodles] has increased slightly, 1.8 yuan per serving, and the [braised pork rice] is also 1.8 yuan. The same sales of 200 servings only amounted to 360 yuan.
Snacks and fast food have higher gross profit margins, which can reach 60%-70% on average.
Gross profit is the amount after deducting costs from revenue, and costs only include various ingredients, auxiliary materials and fuel costs. Gross profit divided by total revenue is gross profit margin.
But the salary of employees in catering enterprises is the biggest part. For example, a snack bar has a total of 48 employees. The average monthly salary is 50 yuan, and the monthly expenditure is 2,400 yuan.
Therefore, after deducting the three expenses (operating expenses, management expenses, and financial expenses), the profit is not high.
"Manager Du, if we can achieve today's turnover every day, then the total turnover for a month will be 48,000 yuan. The gross profit is about 28,800 yuan, and after deducting the three expenses, the profit should be 19,000 yuan."
The finance department did some calculations, and Du Shaojie was very excited after hearing it.
However, this figure has not deducted taxes and fees, because the snack bar is applying for a year of tax exemption, and it is estimated that there will be no problem. In the past two years, the policy encourages various units to actively absorb unemployed young people and has tax reduction and exemption benefits.
In addition, the contract fee paid to the bureau has not been calculated. Spread to each month, the profit is about 18,000 yuan.
According to the contract plan formulated by Du Shaojie, a bonus will be issued when the profit reaches 10,000 yuan. The bonus standard was implemented according to the bureau's plan, but there were slight adjustments in the grades.
He was in the first grade, 50 yuan per month. Dong Jun was in the second grade, 35 yuan per month. Xiao Jianjun and Huang Tingting were in the third grade, 25 yuan per month. The others were in the fourth grade, 15 yuan per month.
The total bonus added up was 795 yuan.
With 10,000 yuan as the base, for every additional 10,000 yuan in profit, the bonus would increase by 20%, with no upper limit.
"Not bad, not bad. We'll calculate it in detail after this month."
Du Shaojie then left the snack bar with a few others, ending a day's work.
It was the peak time for people to get off work, and the streets were busy with traffic. The snack bar did not serve dinner, and the closing time was much earlier than that of the Chinese restaurant.
He rode his bicycle and headed straight to Chunfeng Lane.
Wang Yuxiu lived in the old house for a long time because she had to help make [Dezhou Braised Chicken]. Xiaoya rested at the new house at noon, and often had lunch at the snack bar, but usually went to accompany her mother in the evening. When
she got home, Wang Yuxiu had already prepared dinner.
After dinner, she would start cooking chicken, and several stoves would be occupied.
"Xiaojie, before you came back, Sun Bo from next door came to sit for a while. You know, he is the only one in the local area, and his son works in another place. He is about to go to his son, so he wants to sell his small yard. Can you help ask?"
After dinner, Du Shaojie and Wang Yuxiu were busy in the kitchen together.
Wang Yuxiu told him something, saying that Sun Bo from next door planned to sell his house and move to another place.
At this stage, the real estate market has not yet been formed. Most people live in public housing and pay a small amount of rent every month. There are also some private properties, such as the old house of Du Shaojie's family.
Private property houses can be traded now, but it is a bit troublesome. In
the past two years, the policy has also been relaxed to allow private self-built houses, but the locations for approval are relatively remote.
"How much is Sun Bo's yard going to sell for?"
"He said he would sell it for 1,000 yuan, I guess the price is negotiable."
"For his broken house, 1,000 yuan is a bit expensive, 800 yuan is about right. I'll go and take a look later."
Du Shaojie's heart moved. Sun Bo's house is next to his backyard wall. If it is connected, the two yards will immediately become a whole.
Now the kitchen at home seems a little small, and the yard is a little cramped.
After stewing the chicken, Wang Yuxiu stayed at home to watch the fire, and Du Shaojie went out to Sun Bo's place.
"Sun Bo, are you home?"
Du Shaojie knocked on the door a few times, but he didn't dare to use force, for fear of knocking the door apart.
Sun Bo's house has a sense of shabbyness when standing at the door.
"Who is here? Oh, it's Shaojie, come in quickly."
Uncle Sun is in his sixties and looks older than his actual age. He has retired and earns a meager salary, so he is not well off financially.
Fortunately, his son has made a good career and is willing to take him in to live with him in his old age, otherwise it would be hard for him to live alone.
"Uncle Sun, I heard that you want to sell this yard? I'm telling you the truth, please don't mind, your yard is really shabby, it's not worth a thousand yuan."
Du Shaojie followed him in, looked around the house, and couldn't help shaking his head.
The old man lives alone, and he probably doesn't want to spend money on repairs. The house, the courtyard wall, etc. are almost at the level of a dangerous building.
Therefore, he didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
"How much do you think is appropriate?"
"At most 800 yuan."
"Shaojie, let's not joke, are you serious about buying it?"
Uncle Sun seemed a little anxious. He didn't say whether the price was okay or not, but asked a follow-up question.
Du Shaojie nodded and said, "Of course I'm sincere about buying it, otherwise why am I here?"
"Okay! Eight hundred is eight hundred, deal!"
Du Shaojie thought there would be some arguing, but he didn't expect Sun Bo to agree to the price immediately.
He had nothing to say, and then made an appointment with the other party to go to the street to register and file tomorrow, and then he had to go to several departments.
Since 1978, the top leaders and theorists have raised the issue of "housing reform", which kicked off the commercialization of housing. But for many years afterwards, it was in the preparation stage, and full implementation had to wait until the late 1990s.
Today's real estate transactions are still very irregular, but they can still be handled.
After leaving Sun Bo's yard, Du Shaojie went to see Liang Meiqin.
Since he signed a three-year contract agreement with the bureau, he has a lot more free time. Occasionally, when the weather is good, he will push Meiqin outside for a walk.
"Shaojie, you contracted the snack bar, are you afraid of losing money?"
Liang Meiqin fumbled to help Du Shaojie peel an orange. She can do a lot of things now, and her eyes can feel the faint light, no longer pitch black.
Her parents planned to take her to Beijing to see an eye doctor in the spring. After all, there was a glimmer of hope now.
"It's impossible to lose money. I've been doing this since I was a teenager, so I won't fall into the trap. But how much money I can make is uncertain. Just go with the flow."
The two chatted casually, and Du Shaojie sat there for almost an hour before leaving.
On the way home, he suddenly saw Huang Tingting, who was riding a bicycle away, and it seemed that she had just come out of Su Dapeng's house.
