Chapter 164 Chapter 164 Countdown to the End (Part 3)...
Next, Su Tianli and Cheng Yu became extremely busy.
Su Tianli is busy with company matters all day long:
First of all, how should the layout of a large hotel be designed?
According to Su Tianli's initial immature idea, out of consideration for maximizing profits, since they only bought a small amount of land, they would definitely have to build the building higher and have more floors to make a profit!
So Su Tianli greedily designed a six-story building.
She wanted to use the first floor as a food stall market.
Eat fast food on the second floor,
The third floor is an economical hotel.
The fourth floor is a luxurious private room.
The fifth floor is used for wedding banquets.
The sixth floor is used as an office.
The seventh floor is used as staff dormitory...
But the friends also have their own opinions.
Mao Li raised an objection, "If it follows the layout of a traditional state-owned restaurant, the first floor lobby is for those of us who are struggling to spend money. We can have a bowl of bamboo noodles for 30 cents and a pig's trotter rice for 50 cents."
"The second floor is a private room where you can only order food, not fast food."
"The third floor is for private rooms, which are a bit more upscale... But in my opinion, there is really no hotel higher than the third floor!"
"Do we really need to build a building that tall—seven stories?!"
"Oh my god, the floors are too high. It's tiring to climb them."
Yao Meiyu thought for a moment, "Don't we have an elevator factory in Guangzhou? Should we install an elevator?"
Su Tianli rejected the idea of installing an elevator, saying, "That elevator won't work well."
This is Cheng Yu’s assessment.
——He was familiar with the elevator factory and knew that the quality of the elevators produced locally was not very good. First, the production and delivery time was very long, and the motors had to be imported. Second, the elevator performance was relatively poor and the safety guarantee was not very good.
The most important point is that the power supply in Guangzhou city is also unstable.
Shiqing Company does not have the first-level power supply qualifications, so power outages could happen at any moment!
A Juan said hesitantly: "Second sister, let me give you a suggestion!"
"you say!"
Ajuan came up with a brilliant idea - could the hotel be designed to look like a hill?
The food market on the first floor and the fast food restaurant on the second floor are built on the ground;
Then there is a winding road that is as high as the third floor, so that the economy hotel on the third floor becomes the ground floor, and the luxury rooms on the fourth floor become the second floor;
Similarly, there is a winding road as high as the fifth floor, so the wedding hall on the fifth floor became the first floor, the office on the sixth floor became the second floor, and the staff dormitory on the seventh floor became the third floor.
Ajuan's words caused everyone to fall silent, and then a heated discussion broke out:
"I can't figure out what this looks like."
"I have a picture in my mind. I'm telling you to listen... It's very simple. There is a seven-story building with stairs and everything. But on both sides of the building, at the height of three floors, there are roads so people can ride bicycles up and down, or even drive cars up and down! The same is true on both sides of the fifth floor..."
"Well, I can understand why you said that building roads on both sides of the third floor would create two large slopes on the left and right. But what about the road between the third and fifth floors? Two levels of roads? Both can be used by cars? Isn't that a bridge? Do we have the ability to build a road or a bridge?"
"Lili's doubts are spot on! So I think why don't we reduce one floor? We build roads on both sides of the fourth floor, with a large gentle slope on the left and right?"
…
Everyone's heated discussion aroused Su Qianzi's interest.
A few days later, Su Qianzi finished a drawing and showed it to Su Tianli.
When Su Tianli saw it, her eyes widened immediately!
How to say it,
The idea of relying on everyone to talk about it is just empty talk.
But after Su Qianzi drew it, this feeling became a reality.
It turned out that in Su Qianzi's manuscript, the entire building was divided into two parts: the lower three floors and the upper four floors, and was slightly moved.
In this way, the lower three floors are larger, and the upper four floors look taller and thinner.
Indeed, starting from the fourth floor, two long gentle slopes extend from both sides of the building...
The top four floors appear taller and thinner because a portion of the area is reserved to serve as a continuous gently sloping road.
Su Qianzi even marked the size.
And, she also estimated a price herself -
One million and two hundred thousand!
Su Tianli was startled!
"One million and two hundred thousand?" Su Tianli opened her eyes wide in disbelief.
Su Qianzi nodded, "That's about the price."
Su Tianli sighed and said honestly: "I don't have that much money."
Even if she used the land to apply for a loan, she could only get more than 400,000 yuan, which was not enough to build a seven-story house.
The best budget is to build three floors first, because you still have to save money for decoration, equipment, and employee training...
After a moment of disappointment, Su Tianli regained her composure and said, "Why don't we build a four-story building first, and then add the three floors above when we have more money!"
Su Qianzi also nodded, "Well, sister, when you apply to build a house, you must report that you want to lay a high-rise foundation. The foundations of a four-story building and a seven-story building are different."
Su Tianli nodded repeatedly.
Next, Su Tianli devoted herself to handling various procedures.
Of course, Cheng Yu was also very busy:
This is mainly reflected in the fact that the first multifunctional snack stall cart developed by Cheng Yu has finally been launched!
The tricycle he made looked a bit larger than an ordinary tricycle with a cargo box.
When folded up, it looks like an ordinary tricycle with a cargo box, but it is thicker and heavier.
When you want to set up a stall to do business, you need to stop the car and lower the three side guardrails that make up the truck bed (the side close to the front of the truck is not lowered).
Then set up four more pillars and cover them with canvas to provide shade and shelter from the rain.
The cart bed is used to store various ingredients, and on both sides of the cart are small tables for diners to use.
Of course, you can also store a few folding tables and small chairs in the truck bed and take them out and place them aside.
The lowered baffle at the rear of the car is a "high-tech" cooking table.
There are three stoves designed on the cooking table.
One is a simple empty space where a coal stove can be placed and the stall owner can cook whatever pot he wants;
One is a square cooking pot with four wicker sieves for cooking noodles and vermicelli, and the bottom of the pot is a charcoal layer;
One is the square frying pan, which is actually a flat pan with a charcoal layer at the bottom.
One side of the flat-bottom frying pan is separated by a thin and long rectangular frying area. If the frying function is not needed, just remove the special frying pan and cover the hollow space with a lid.
If you need to fry food, take off the lid and put the thin rectangular frying pan on it... There is also a charcoal layer at the bottom of the pot.
In this way, this small multifunctional snack stand cart has very complete functions.
The "table" and chairs it comes with can at least solve the problem of six not-too-fat diners sitting down to eat;
If the stall owner brings two small tables and eight small stools, then he can accommodate fourteen people at a time!
The first multifunctional snack stand was made bit by bit by Cheng Yu using a hammer and a wrench.
As soon as Ajuan and her friends rode to the Dadadi Night Market, they instantly became the center of attention!
Before anyone knew the price, Wonton Brother gave Cheng Yu two hundred yuan and ordered one.
The second and third multifunctional snack stand carts were made by the helpers Cheng Yu invited.
I still gave one to Ajuan and the others, and one to Wonton Brother.
But what about the price of this multifunctional snack stand?
This made Cheng Yu very embarrassed.
He also didn't know how to set the price.
So, Su Tianli and Cheng Yu disassembled the fourth multifunctional snack stand together, down to every component and every screw...
The couple counted and found that there were more than 200 spare parts in total!
Then Su Tianli asked Cheng Yu to assemble the multifunctional snack stall cart in front of her.
After watching the assembly site, Su Tianli helped Cheng Yu come up with an idea:
For spare parts that can be assembled initially and have no technical difficulty, place orders directly to the manufacturer and ask the manufacturer to perform simple assembly upon delivery.
When Cheng Yu heard this, he was immediately excited!
yes!
Why didn't he think of this?
If he could leave the simple assembly work to the spare parts manufacturer, he would save a lot of time!
Thinking of this, he immediately became excited.
He thought about it for several days, and finally assembled the parts one by one, and then went to factories one by one.
Of course.
He spent the longest time in the machinery factory and has the widest network of contacts there.
Soon, at Su Tianli's suggestion, Cheng Yu placed an order for 500 sets of spare parts for the multifunctional snack stand carts.
Of course, because they were afraid that the "formula" of the multifunctional snack stand cart would be copied by the machinery factory,
Su Tianli also suggested that Cheng Yu go to other places to purchase some spare parts...
Finally, at Su Tianli's suggestion, Cheng Yu priced his multifunctional snack stand at 660 yuan per vehicle.
It's quite expensive, because a 28-inch bicycle only costs more than 200 yuan.
But it is worth it. With such a multifunctional food stall cart, I almost don’t need to rent a store, and I no longer need to buy extra cooking utensils...
Besides, it’s only over 600 yuan, and you can borrow it from someone.
For Cheng Yu, the cost of each multifunctional snack stand cart, that is, the price of spare parts, is about 200 yuan;
The cost of 500 sets is 100,000 yuan.
Fortunately, he had some connections in the machinery factory, and the factory director agreed to the purchase terms that Cheng Yu would pay within one month after delivery.
As for the machinery factories in other places, Cheng Yu didn't have many connections, but the deposit and the payment for the entire batch of goods were not too much and were still within his financial capacity.
Two months later, Cheng Yu’s 500 multifunctional snack stalls were finally launched!
Many vendors heard the news and moved...
In just seven days, more than 200 vehicles were sold!
You should know that
For every car sold, Cheng Yu makes a net profit of more than 400 yuan!
Although less than half of the goods were sold, it was enough for Cheng Yu to pay off all the payments.
The remaining money can be used to buy a car and pay for it in full.
People in this era love to follow trends, and there is no such thing as intellectual property rights.
But the multifunctional snack cart designed and produced by Cheng Yu... is another matter.
because--
The technical content is too high!
The materials are hard to find.
It is difficult to get spare parts.
Even things like brackets, tent cloths, square pots, charcoal racks... are all custom-made!
Ordinary people can’t imitate it.
Although it is not impossible for a machinery factory to copy it if they are willing to do so,
But state-owned factories have to carry out production tasks assigned by the state, and they also don’t care about the small profits...
In this way, the multifunctional snack stand cart developed by Cheng Yu has become a unique and popular item!
Then--
What surprised Su Tianli and Cheng Yu was that
There were scalpers who came to find me.
They came to talk to Cheng Yu, hoping to buy the multifunctional snack stand cart from Cheng Yu at wholesale price.
After discussing with Su Tianli, Cheng Yu decided to take action as soon as possible.
Because there are less than two months left before the college entrance examination.
Cheng Yu is about to go to Northeast Polytechnic University to take the special recruitment examination.
Su Tianli was too busy and couldn't get away to help Cheng Yu handle this batch of multifunctional snack stalls.
It’s better to cash out and get the money back as soon as possible.
Therefore, Cheng Yu wholesaled the remaining nearly 300 multifunctional snack stand carts to a dozen scalpers.
After selling these 500 functional snack stalls, Cheng Yu earned an astonishing gross profit of more than 190,000!
Excluding the costs of rent, utilities, labor, and Cheng Yu's travel expenses,
And we have to save some money to pay the wages of the workers who stay behind, because we also have to deal with the maintenance and spare parts replacement costs of the multi-functional snack stand within three years...
Then Cheng Yu will definitely make 170,000!
He gave all the money to Su Tianli.
Now Su Tianli is short of money.
So she took it upon herself to lend the money to "Shiqing Catering Co., Ltd." in the name of "Nengyi Machinery Factory" at a low interest rate...
Friends were all making fun of Su Tianli, saying that she was using her left hand to wear her right hand.
Su Tianli was also helpless about this.
Who made her have no money?
But Su Tianli did not regret it.
Judging from the fact that Cheng Yu made a lot of money by developing functional snack carts——
She understood a truth.
——The most expensive and higher-cost things are difficult to replace.
Look!
Wontons, sesame cakes, porridge, and noodle soup at the night market stalls...
It looks like business is booming, but actually, no money is being made.
Because everyone knows how to make these, and the cost of the ingredients is not high; so everyone is competing to compare the price, quantity, and condiments.
But Cheng Yu's functional snack stand cart, first of all, no one wants it;
Second, the asking price was over 600 yuan per car, and almost no one had any objections.
This is the power of technology!
So Su Tianli also felt that it was because her restaurant had not opened yet.
If it opens,
Business will definitely be good!
However, during this period of time, Su Tianli and Cheng Yu were not the only ones who were busy.
Everyone is busy.
Ajuan, Mao Li and the others were also busy as hell.
Mao Li is an accountant with a certificate;
After Zhang Wei transferred the company's shares to Mao Li,
Mao Li became the third largest shareholder of the company.
So she naturally became Su Tianli's right-hand man.
She has to handle the company's accounts.
She is also responsible for fire protection, sanitation, food safety training, etc.
As for Ajuan, Su Tianli wants to train her to be the executive chef.
So Ajuan became the busiest person!
Because she was constantly assigned by Su Tianli to go to other places to attend various short-term kitchen training courses.
Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Anhui, Hunan, Sichuan...
As for Zhang Wei,
Because his family members are too noisy,
He then quit the Shiqing Company.
But just like Cheng Yu said - Zhang Wei is really not suitable to be a husband and family member, but he must be a very good friend.
So Su Tianli also defined a position for Zhang Wei.
——Food distributor.
While the company is still setting up its framework, only Yao Meiyu is still organizing temporary workers such as Cao Yulong (Aunt Cao’s youngest son) to set up small stalls in several nearby night markets.
So Zhang Wei was responsible for supplying goods to Cao Yulong and others.
Every morning, Zhang Wei would come on his tricycle to deliver goods.
There are skewers skewered with bamboo sticks.
Various washed and cut vegetables and fruits,
Chicken, duck, fish, spare ribs, pork belly, etc...
Since Yao Meiyu and her colleagues' sales are relatively stable,
As a result, Zhang Wei also became more stable.
Later, Wonton Brother also found a business opportunity from this - he also asked Zhang Wei to prepare the ingredients. In this way, his cost would increase a little, but he would not be so tired...
With the promotion of Wonton Brother, Zhang Wei's semi-finished food supply business gradually got on the right track.
Next, it is about He Wanqian’s current situation.
He Wanqian couldn't raise the 5,000 yuan no matter what...
She had extremely bad relationships with people. Not only could she not afford the money herself, but she couldn't even borrow a penny when she went to borrow.
However, her only connections are Xu Jiaxi and He Jingdong.
Xu Jiaxi ignored He Wanqian at all.
After divorcing He Jingdong, she went directly to the Northwest and reportedly moved the magazine to a satellite city.
The only life-saving straw that He Wanqian can grasp is He Jingdong.
But He Jingdong has no money...
In the end, He Wanqian had no choice but to sell her work instructions for 800 yuan.
He also sold all the furniture in He Jingdong's house.
All the money in He Jingdong's hands was squeezed dry...
Finally, I collected 2,000 yuan and handed it over to the factory.
For the remaining three thousand, He Wanqian wrote thirty IOUs of one hundred yuan each and gave them to Director Zhang.
She cried and said to Director Zhang: "I really can't find the money... Either you let me pay in installments, and I will pay you back slowly. Or you force me to death, and I will go to your office to end my life."
Director Zhang had no choice but to agree to He Wanqian's proposal.
In this way, He Wanqian, who lost her stable job, finally started a life working three jobs a day.
Early in the morning, she set up a snack stand at the gate of the factory children's school. After the school closed at 8 o'clock, she left and went to work as a cleaner at the Municipal People's Hospital.
Around five in the afternoon, she went back to set up a snack stand in front of the factory’s children’s school... Is it easier to make money from children?
At seven o'clock in the evening, she would ride her bicycle for an hour to the Dadadi Night Market to buy some midnight snacks, and could only return home in the early hours of the morning.
However, on this day, Yao Meiyu came to Su Tianli and said, "Lizhi, I want to tell you something!"
Yao Meiyu was a little uneasy. "Don't blame me for being suspicious. I always feel that...something might happen to you and Cheng Yu recently! Hey, you two should be more careful!"
Su Tianli was stunned. "What do you mean?"
