Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

Yan Jiecheng had put a lot of effort into marrying this wife. If she divorced him, it would be a real waste of time.

Seeing his wife threatening him with divorce, Yan Jiecheng had to nod his head no matter how unwilling he was: "Don't worry, wife..."

"I promise to go find Wang Dong when I'm free during this period, and I'll find a way to get you to work in his restaurant."

…………

At around nine o'clock in the evening, Wang Dong stood at the door of the finance office with an anxious look on his face, waiting for several accountants to calculate the hotel's turnover and net profit for the day.

My daughter-in-law Chen Jun, who had been helping out in the restaurant all day, was also very nervous.

Standing next to Wang Dong, he pinched his right hand from time to time, fearing that the restaurant would not make any money on its first day of business.

It is no exaggeration to describe the restaurant's business today as booming. If it cannot make money today, it will be even more impossible to make money in the future.

"It's out..." After an unknown amount of time, the property manager's excited voice finally rang in Wang Dong's ears.

"What's the specific situation? After deducting member recharges, how much is today's total turnover? What is the cost? And what is the final profit?" Wang Dong was more anxious than anyone else. He stared at the financial manager he had poached from the steel mill and asked anxiously.

After the lunch business ended, the finance department conducted a simple statistics of the turnover and profits, and initially estimated that the net profit of a lunch meal was more than 500 yuan.

But that is only an estimate after all, not real data after professional calculation, and many costs are not taken into account.

The financial manager immediately responded: "Boss..."

"After counting, the total sales for today's lunch and dinner is 3,185 yuan."

"The total cost of raw materials is 1,156 yuan, the total cost of labor is 318 yuan, the total cost of rent and water and electricity is 83 yuan, and after deducting the corresponding taxes and other hidden costs, our net profit for today is a total of 1,380 yuan."

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..." Everyone waiting at the door of the finance office gasped in shock at the data.

My daughter-in-law Chen Jun's reaction was the most exaggerated. Her mouth was so open from shock that an egg could almost be stuffed in.

Staring at Wang Dong with wide eyes, he asked back: "Dongzi..."

"Why is rent included in the cost? Isn't the restaurant opened in our own house?"

Before Wang Dong could even open his mouth to explain, the financial manager at the side rushed to answer: "Madam boss..."

"Even if the restaurant is in your own home, it is your own house, and you have to include the rent when calculating the cost... This is customary."

"In the future, our Dongjun Hotel will open chain hotels in other places in Sijiu City. It is impossible for every hotel to be opened in our own home. Then there will be rent expenses."

"In order to avoid confusion when one hotel counts the rent but another does not, we will include the rent in the cost calculation."

"The cost of renting this hotel is fifty dollars a day."

"One thousand five hundred yuan a month, and at the end of each month, the money will be settled to the boss and his wife."

Tang Dashan, He Yuzhu, Ma Xingwen and Kang Yu who were standing behind Wang Dong and Chen Jun were extremely happy.

They don't care whether rent is included in the accounting costs.

At this moment, several people were shocked by the net profit reported by the financial manager.

Especially Tang Dashan.

He is the highest-ranking person among all the management of the hotel. In the absence of a front office manager, his rank is second only to Wang Dong. In addition to his salary, he can also receive a dividend of 1% of the hotel's net profit every month.

The restaurant's net profit today is more than 300 yuan, which means that without counting wages, his dividend today is 13 yuan. Adding the 5 yuan salary, his daily income is more than the monthly salary of an apprentice in a steel mill.

If the restaurant's business every day is exactly the same as today, then his monthly income will not exceed 500 yuan.

Although my daughter-in-law Yu Li is only a team leader in the hotel's front desk now, she still receives a dividend of 0.2% of the net profit every month, which, together with her salary, is more than 100 yuan. The couple's monthly income at Dongjun Hotel is no less than 700 yuan.

The more I thought about it, the more shocked my face became, and it took me a long time to react.

He Yuzhu's entire face was also covered with excitement.

Although his dividend from the restaurant is only half of Tang Dashan's, as long as the restaurant's business does not deteriorate in the future, his monthly dividend plus salary will be more than 300 yuan.

It was seven or eight times higher than his previous salary at the steel mill.

Just thinking about it makes me happy.

Wang Dong himself was also very happy.

The net profit of more than 1,300 yuan undoubtedly gave the restaurant a good start for its subsequent business.

Seeing that the financial manager didn't seem to have finished his words and was still staring at him with an unsatisfied expression, Wang Dong said decisively: "Okay..."

"Everyone is quiet..."

"Just keep yourselves informed of our restaurant's sales today. Please try not to spread the news before the end of the month."

"When the salary is paid at the end of the month, I will try to give every employee in the hotel a big surprise."

"But I also found a lot of problems with my business license today."

"Some employees still regard our hotel as a state-owned factory. They think they can get paid on time whether they work or not, and the hotel will not fire them easily. They not only cheat and act slyly during work, but also leaders bully employees."

"I'm here to remind you once again today..."

"Control the behavior of yourself and your employees."

"If there are any violations of the hotel rules in the future, I will warn you the first time, fine you the second time, and fire you the third time. No matter who the other party is or who is backing them up, as the boss, I will not show mercy."

"Since I've paid you a high salary, you must work hard for me."

"There are many educated youth who have returned to the city and want to work in our hotel. If we lose one of them, we can immediately fill in from outside."

"Our restaurant is a private enterprise. As the boss, I have the right to fire anyone who violates our hotel rules as long as it does not violate the law."

"It seems that Manager Wang hasn't finished his words yet..."

"There should be a lot of good news to report to us. Tell us all at once and make everyone happy again."

Manager Wang smiled and continued: "Boss..."

"In addition to the sales and net profit far exceeding our expectations... today the front desk clerk persuaded someone to open a total of 417 membership cards."

"A membership card has a deposit of 50 yuan. We have received 20,850 yuan in deposits alone."

"If nothing unexpected happens, these 400-plus guests will become regular customers of the hotel in the future." (End of this chapter)
