When Li Shitong heard Duan Jian say he didn't know how to make grilled fish, he thought for a moment and said, "Duan Jian, if you go back now, do you think Feng Haidong will still need you?"
Duan Jian was immediately dumbfounded: "Boss Li, are you kidding me?"
Li Shitong said, "Just kidding. I know you can't be used by them if you go back now."
Li Shitong then asked, "What do you think, should we buy a few more servings of grilled fish and figure out how to cook it ourselves?"
Upon hearing this, Duan Jian thought about it seriously and said, "It's worth a try. Besides, Feng Haidong's restaurant has a semi-open kitchen, so you can usually see some of the operations in the kitchen."
However, upon thinking about this, Duan Jian shook his head again: "But to perfectly replicate the taste of Feng Haidong's family's cooking, it's probably not something that can be done just by looking at it and tasting it."
Li Shitong nodded and said, "I know that too, but we can still give it a try."
Duan Jian thought about it seriously for a moment, then suddenly said, "Mr. Li, we don't actually need to follow Feng Haidong's approach."
Li Shitong was somewhat puzzled: "Don't you need to learn his methods? Do you even know how?"
Duan Jian said, "Although I don't know how to make grilled fish, we can research it ourselves. Not many people in our area have eaten grilled fish, and they don't know what grilled fish should taste like. So we can research how to make it ourselves, and then we can offer some discounts to attract customers."
Once people have tried our grilled fish and found it delicious, they won't think that only Feng Haidong's restaurant has the authentic grilled fish.
Upon hearing this, Li Shitong slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "That's right! How come I didn't think of that?"
At this moment, Duan Jian and Li Shitong suddenly seemed to understand something.
The reason why everyone now thinks Feng Haidong's restaurant makes the most authentic crayfish is because...
It was because in the past only Feng Haidong's restaurant was open to the public, and no other restaurant could compete with him, which led to everyone gradually recognizing Feng Haidong's restaurant as the most authentic.
It actually took more than three months of accumulation to confirm that Feng Haidong's restaurant was authentic.
Grilled fish is different now; Feng Haidong's restaurant only launched grilled fish a little over half a month ago.
Duan Jian and Li Shitong felt that if they followed suit and launched grilled fish at this time, they would naturally be more competitive. As long as their food tasted better than Feng Haidong's restaurant, people would definitely recognize their restaurant as the authentic one.
At this point, Duan Jian and Li Shitong truly began to believe that they could turn their business around by selling grilled fish.
Of course, even after making such plans, Duan Jian and Li Shitong still decided to conduct a thorough investigation and research on the grilled fish at Feng Haidong's restaurant.
This might be because they suffered a huge loss in the crayfish issue.
Duan Jian and Li Shitong were making urgent plans to follow up on Feng Haidong's restaurant's grilled fish business.
Feng Haidong's restaurant is becoming increasingly popular with its grilled fish business.
In just over half a month, the number of customers coming to the restaurant every day to eat grilled fish has increased significantly.
With the increase in customers, Feng Haidong faced another important problem.
Just like with the crayfish before, the source of goods is still a problem that Feng Haidong has to face.
With more and more customers, the amount of fish consumed each day will naturally increase.
To this end, Feng Haidong asked Liang Cong to help him contact fish farms in his hometown, while he also contacted local aquaculture farms himself.
To Feng Haidong's surprise, the fish from the local aquaculture farm were priced higher than those from Liang Cong's hometown, even including transportation costs.
This left Feng Haidong speechless.
It was only after inquiring that I learned that the local aquaculture farm wanted to transport the fish to other places to sell at a higher price.
In other words, the locals didn't want to do business with Feng Haidong, and some looked down on the amount of food consumed at Feng Haidong's restaurant.
This really left Feng Haidong feeling both amused and exasperated.
There was no other way, so he could only temporarily ask Liang Cong's father, Liang Zhigang, for help. He contacted an aquaculture farm in Liang Cong's hometown to buy the fish he needed and have them delivered.
Fortunately, thanks to Liang Zhigang's connections, Feng Haidong was able to get a relatively low price for the fish.
The only part that needs more support is actually the shipping cost.
At this moment, Feng Haidong couldn't help but miss the various conveniences that the country's large-scale infrastructure construction would bring in the future.
However, the large-scale infrastructure construction has not yet officially started.
Therefore, they can only pay more for shipping to ensure the supply of raw materials for Feng Haidong's restaurant's grilled fish.
Although the fish supply problem has been temporarily solved, it has made Feng Haidong realize that he must seize the opportunity to develop aquaculture in the town and village.
This will help reduce the costs of Feng Haidong's restaurant.
On the other hand, if it develops to a sufficient scale in the future, it can, like Liang Cong's hometown, begin to supply other cities.
This can naturally bring a considerable income to everyone in the town and village.
Feng Haidong doesn't consider himself a particularly noble person.
His premise for doing all this was always to use it for his own benefit.
However, while making money for himself, Feng Haidong was determined to try his best to help his brothers and sisters, and even his relatives and fellow villagers, to get rich together.
After two busy weeks, Feng Haidong thought that the restaurant was doing too well on weekends, and he wanted to take his son back to town to visit his wife, but it seemed that he would not be able to make it.
By the way, the best app for reading aloud and listening to books right now is the .huanyuanapp app (install the latest version).
He decided to change his approach and give everyone a day off on Tuesday and Wednesday.
