Chapter 105: Customization requires traveling to many places...
Chapter 105
Since we are all family, this matter is easy to discuss. In the end, the food truck Lin Mujin owns 50%, Uncle Lin owns 10%, and Cousin Lin owns 10%, and 30% is for public use.
In the Western restaurant, Lin Mujin still owns 50%, Lin cousin owns 10%, Lin cousin owns 10%, and 30% is for public use.
We also brainstormed and named the restaurant next to the Western restaurant "Huimei Simple Meals".
"Uncle, brother, sister, we are going to do business in a shop this time, so everything has to be formal and we have to go through the procedures..." Lin Mujin explained the documents that needed to be processed and where to go to apply for them.
Cousin Lin covered her head and said, "Why is this so troublesome?"
Lin Mujin said, "It's okay. Our family has to do legitimate business. There's always a first time. Besides, Mrs. Luo and her daughter are eating with us now. They have health certificates, so we can rest assured."
Cousin Lin didn't refute it anymore.
Lin Mujin began counting on her fingers. "First, find a glass door workshop to measure the dimensions and customize them. Second, go through all the paperwork. Third, recruit people. Fourth, finalize the food and calculate the cost. No, no, I still have to order rectangular frying pans, iron racks, and shelves in advance."
When I talk about it, there are quite a lot of things.
"Brother, don't go to the food truck for a while, come with me to do some work."
There are so many things that she can't handle them all by herself.
Cousin Lin nodded, "Okay."
Cousin Lin also said, "We have enough manpower here, brother, go help my sister."
Lin Mujin took the opportunity to ask, "Sister, can you hire two more people? When the time comes, you can go over there, and have Wang Xiaoli go over there to add a new person. This will only leave Brother, Mrs. Luo, and the new person. So, if you count them this way, you still need to hire at least two more people."
Cousin Lin immediately said, "If I had to choose, I would definitely choose Mrs. Luo."
Cousin Lin refused to do it. "No, I can't compare to you. If you take away the capable people, I won't have the confidence here."
In order to keep Mrs. Luo, Cousin Lin did not hesitate to expose his shortcomings.
Cousin Lin waved her hand casually, but the corners of her mouth curved, "Alright, alright, Wang Xiaoli is also OK. Then we have to choose the next two carefully. It would be best if we find someone like Mrs. Luo."
Lin Mujin asked her cousin Lin, "Brother, are you still going to Kowloon Walled City?"
Cousin Lin nodded and said, "I think the people there are more diligent, down-to-earth, and willing to endure hardships. They integrate quickly and learn quickly."
Lin Mujin asked, "Does it also include food and accommodation? If so, where will we stay?"
It’s not that they can’t afford to rent a house, it’s just that there are no vacant rooms in their building.
Cousin Lin immediately said, "I think they should provide food and accommodation, and they shouldn't be too far away from us, because that way I can watch them clean up. I don't want sloppy employees. The most taboo thing about cooking is uncleanliness."
Lin Mujin pouted. "Then adding another bunk bed to Mrs. Luo's room isn't a question of whether they're willing or not. Sister Zhu won't agree to it. Besides, there are too many people on one floor, and our own quality of life will also decline."
Cousin Lin muttered, "That's right."
Lin Mujin added, "The best outcome would be to find a cheap rental house near home. I'll ask Sister Zhu, she has quite a few properties available."
After finishing the last bit of milk tea, she stood up and said, "Brother, let's go."
Cousin Lin handed over the milk tea and said, "I didn't drink it. I went to get my bike."
Lin Mujin happily accepted it. Two cups of milk tea were just a small gift. "Thank you, brother."
The short family gathering was adjourned.
Lin Mujin sat on the back of her cousin Lin's bicycle. They were heading to Kowloon Walled City.
When they arrived nearby, Lin Mujin got off the car on her own initiative and found a cool place to drink milk tea. Cousin Lin came back very quickly and she hadn't finished her milk tea before he came back.
"Brother, so fast!"
Cousin Lin said, "Let him know once you've found someone. He'll also have to find the right employees. We'll come back tomorrow afternoon. Now, are we going to find a workshop that makes glass doors?"
Lin Mujin asked, "Do you know where to go?"
Cousin Lin shook his head. "We've never made it before. We still need to make rectangular frying pans. Let's go to the iron shop. Maybe the owner there knows how to do it."
Lin Mujin had no objection and continued to ride.
However, this time the pot is bigger, 20 cm longer and 10 cm wider, and eighteen rectangular panels need to be made, just like a lunch box without a bottom.
The length is sixteen centimeters, the width is twelve centimeters, and the thickness is five centimeters.
You still need shovels of different sizes.
Because he was an old customer, the boss only asked for an extra eighty dollars.
Lin Mujin paid a deposit of one hundred yuan and came to pick up the goods in three days.
I also successfully asked about the workshop that makes glass doors and windows.
The boss also said that you can quote his name and get a very low price.
Lin Mujin followed her cousin Lin half-believing and half-doubting.
I don’t know if they will give the lowest price, but their attitude is good anyway.
"Boss, I want a glass door that can be slid and removed." Lin Mujin expressed his idea.
The boss thought for a moment and said, "Okay, just like the door panels in the old shops."
Lin Mujin nodded frantically, "Yes, yes, yes, but I need one with tracks and a lock. Can you do that?"
The boss added, "It can't be all glass. We need a circle of aluminum. Otherwise, we won't be able to make a keyhole, and it won't be strong enough. It will break easily if it's bumped."
Lin Mujin took out a pen and paper and started drawing. "How about this: put the keyhole at the bottom of the door, so that when the two doors are closed, they still look like windows."
The boss nodded. "That's not difficult. Yes, you can put it at the bottom. I've learned a thing or two."
Lin Mujin joked, "Then the boss has to make it more carefully for us. By the way, can't we use aluminum alloy?"
The boss laughed and said, "You also know about aluminum alloy. That is available and valuable."
Lin Mujin suddenly realized that perhaps aluminum alloy hadn't been mass-produced yet, and the price hadn't come down yet. "Then let's just use aluminum. What's the approximate price?"
The boss did the math and said, "Five hundred and fifty dollars, that's not much."
Start to calculate the details.
Lin Mujin had no idea and didn't want to compare prices. She looked at some finished products and tried them out, and found the quality was good.
But bargaining is a necessary process.
The final price was five hundred and two.
Lin Mujin asked again, "Can you measure the specific dimensions?"
The boss nodded and said, "Okay, add twenty."
Lin Mujin thought to herself that she might as well not negotiate the price and just do the measurements directly.
After all this talk, we only saved ten dollars. "So, let's go now?"
The boss went there himself with measuring tools.
But a bicycle is inconvenient.
So after discussing it, Lin Mujin took the bus with the boss.
Fortunately, there is a direct bus, so I don’t have to waste time backing up.
Lin Mujin took him to the Western restaurant. It was already lunchtime and there were quite a few people eating there.
The guests were also dressed very smartly.
She couldn't help but smile, maybe these would be her clients in the future.
"Boss, this is the piece of glass that needs to be modified, but I want to widen it and break down a part of the sides and bottom of the window." Lin Mujin gestured to the approximate location.
The boss frowned and said, "It's not easy to measure it because it hasn't been smashed yet."
Lin Mujin had no choice but to explain gently, "This western-style restaurant is still open. We plan to demolish the wall early in the morning and then install the glass door immediately to try not to affect the western-style restaurant's business."
The boss's frown didn't relax. "I'll try my best, but I can't be too precise."
Lin Mujin also understood, "I trust the boss's many years of experience."
Anyway, it's definitely more accurate than theirs.
