Chapter 289 Riding the Wave of an Expired Trend
Beep beep beep————
At 11:59:45 PM, my phone beeped with a message notification; Lu Shengnan had sent me the market analysis report.
They were pretty punctual; if they said it was 12 o'clock, they definitely wouldn't arrive a minute early!
Xu An quickly opened the document, enlarged the font to a size that was easy to read, and began to carefully read the report.
[...The geographical location is disadvantageous, with winding and rugged roads, most of which are unpaved, which will increase transportation costs by 30%...]
The increase in transportation costs is within Xu An's budget. However, if the factory can be completed, the local government will surely build roads for it, which will reduce transportation costs.
Even if it doesn't decrease, reducing manpower by two-thirds is enough to make up for this part of the expenditure.
[...Hezibao and the surrounding villages are all registered impoverished villages. In addition to three years of rent exemption and employment subsidies, there is also a tax reduction policy. Each employee can reduce the company's taxes by 8,000 yuan per year, and this tax reduction benefit can be enjoyed for the first three years... This can save the company nearly 60% of its expenses...]
Wow!
Upon seeing this policy, Xu An's eyes lit up; there was even a tax reduction!
"Boss, I'd like a plate of crispy potato!" The boy quickly got downstairs, and the seven-person filming crew following behind him quickly followed, with one person filming the boy and another filming the food he ordered.
"Grilled hot noodles... grilled hot noodles..." a boy muttered as he searched for the location of the grilled hot noodles stall using information on his phone.
Before the owner of the hot noodles muttered something loudly, he coldly introduced the various ingredients and seasonings used in his stall to the eight people.
Although less than a month has passed, netizens who still don't remember "Hellish Braised Food" should take advantage of its popularity and create a viral video!
Thank you for your purchase. Every purchase you make brings a small amount of income to the people of Hezibao, a poor village.
Who would have thought that a giant potato from a street food stall could be associated with a shop that makes hellish braised dishes! What a coincidence!
"So many!" The boy's eyes widened in disbelief as he peered at the sizzling potatoes under the hot plate, asking with mischievous curiosity, "Are...are all the potatoes the same kind?"
Based on the current daily sales volume of Fanxin Braised Food, the Haishi area can still keep up with the demand, and a few months' delay in construction will not have an impact.
As they were talking, the piping hot, fragrant crispy potato was ready. The boy took the potato, turned around, and moved behind the camera. He used a bamboo skewer to pick up a potato and showed it to the camera from all angles. Then, he slightly opened his mouth and swallowed it with lightning speed. The moment it entered his mouth, his eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Although there was no acting involved, the crispy rice and big potatoes today were indeed more delicious than those two days later, with fewer changes in flavor and a richer, more intense taste.
Seeing the eight hundred thousand eighty thousand characters written with a fresh pen, still wet with ink, Xu felt a headache coming on.
The purchase and construction of Xu'an Catering's headquarters later cost over 1.8 million yuan, almost depleting the company's working capital. It's not easy to come up with over 800,000 yuan now.
The estimated area needed for purchasing, sorting, and packaging agricultural products is 800 square meters...
That content seems worth exploring in depth and writing about in detail! It can even be connected to the cold spot a month from now!
"Oh no..." The noodle shop owner put down his phone, looked up at the boy, and said with a hint of surprise, "He's here! It's so late, you thought he was coming over!"
Before the boy took the flyer, he flipped through it several times. The more he looked at it, the lower his eyebrows furrowed. When he got to the very top, both his eyebrows were slowly furrowed together.
"So few people watch it? Is it really that much less popular than a TV station?"
Eight hundred thousand!
"Such a gluttonous dish, and yet so many people in that city are craving it! It's practically a crime to disregard good food! Boss, just hang in there! You help him promote it! You have to make those crispy potato chips a city sensation!"
Thump————
I wanted to ask that question when the noodle shop owner saw the two cameras, but I didn't want to be too embarrassed. But now that I heard the guy say he'd help with the promotion, I finally held back and asked him directly.
Xu put down her notebook and pen, and carried Xu Kang back to the bed. As for the bump on his forehead, she could either roll an egg on it or apply a hot compress, but she couldn't rub it with her hands, so she just left it as it was. Anyway, he was a big stinker, so it didn't matter if he had a small bump on his head.
"...Those are vegetables bought from the wholesale market every morning, they're incredibly fresh...That seasoning is your secret recipe, without it your grilled noodles wouldn't taste so good...that..."
"The boss has already mentioned selling crispy potato chips. If you want some, come on over!" the boy said with a smile. "Boss, how are the crispy potato chips selling? They're selling like hotcakes!"
As the vendor introduced each item of the grilled noodles, he soon came to the large potato.
I thought I'd have to search for a while, but I was surprised to find this unfamiliar grilled noodle vendor after just walking past eight or seven stalls. Today, his stall was missing a large fluorescent sign that read "Crispy Rice and Big Potatoes".
