The first thing I did was to find out

Chapter 23: Delivering Food (Thanks to the leader of Da Xia Ai Chi Burger Bao for the reward!)

After the uncles returned with their full loads, the large plate of crab shell yellow that had just been baked was half empty in an instant. Ouyang, who had eaten and drunk a lot, sat slumped in a chair and played with his phone leisurely, rubbing his stomach from time to time. It seemed that he wanted to take two more crab shell yellows to his workstation before going to work.

Qin Huai in the kitchen had switched from the busy meal preparation mode to the leisurely state of making dumplings. Seeing that Ouyang was so idle, he simply asked him to move the chair to the window, and the two of them chatted across the snack window.

"How is the distribution of flyers going?" Qin Huai asked.

"Don't worry, I will conduct regular spot checks and there will definitely be no one cheating or slacking off. There will be no problem at all!" Ouyang assured, patting his chest.

Qin Huai nodded: "That's good. There is another question——"

Ouyang gradually sat up straight.

"Sister Hong and Huihui, what snacks do they like to eat? Ordinary steamed buns are fine. Do you have any preferred flavors?" Qin Huai asked seriously.

Ouyang:?
No buddy, you change the subject too quickly!
Ouyang scratched his head and thought about it carefully, but he was not sure: "Sister Hong... I'm not sure, but Huihui should eat more steamed buns."

"Mantou?" Qin Huai gave him a suspicious look.

"Really!" Ouyang emphasized, "My dad bought me a car when I first went to college. Although my mom drives the car now because we can't afford gas, I am still an experienced driver with many years of driving experience."

"Sister Hong went on a business trip last year and asked me to take care of Huihui and drive her to and from school, and to take care of her breakfast and dinner. In the mornings of those two days, I asked Huihui what she wanted to eat, and she always said she wanted to eat steamed buns, which are sold in the convenience store across the street. She didn't eat any other pancakes, hand-pulled pancakes, grilled cold noodles, curry buns, rice balls, or sesame balls. She only ate steamed buns."

Qin Huai nodded and took note of it. Mantou, Huihui is really as simple and unpretentious as in the dream.

After saying that, Ouyang looked at Qin Huai excitedly: "What's the matter, Old Qin, can you also make the legendary secret steamed buns?"

Qin Huai waved his hand: "What secret steamed buns are there? I can add some brown sugar to make brown sugar steamed buns for you, or at most add some meat to make meat steamed buns. Can I also make steamed buns into flowers?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Luo, who entered the store yawning, replied listlessly: "What steamed buns? Brother, didn't you make those wine lees steamed buns before?"

Ouyang's eyes suddenly lit up, and his face was full of "I knew you had some hidden skills."

Qin Luo's next sentence extinguished the light in Ouyang's eyes: "But it's not delicious."

Ouyang instantly became interested: "Qin Huai, are there any dim sum that don't taste good? Luoluo, didn't you tell me that your brother makes dim sum by looking at recipes and learning by watching?"

Qin Luo did not answer, but looked down at the crab shell yellow on the plate, put on gloves very consciously, picked up a plate for himself with tongs, and ate while talking, and the puff pastry fell all over the floor.

"That's different."

"According to the book, wine lees steamed buns are made from fermented wine koji. They are elastic and will deflate if you squeeze them, but will bounce back if you release them. Even if you put them in a bag and press them for more than ten minutes, they will still bounce back to their original shape when you take them out."

"I didn't really describe the taste, except to say it had the aroma of wine and a unique flavor. In theory, it should be delicious."

"But the wine lees buns my brother made are just ordinary buns, not so elastic, and the wine smell in the buns is weird. Anyway, I don't like it very much." Qin Luo took a bite of the crab shell yellow, pointed to his mouth, and said vaguely, "I like to eat this!"

After Qin Luo finished eating the crab shell yellow, he ate two more buns, then changed his clothes and went into the kitchen to help his parents make buns. Doing the jobs of a cleaner and a handyman, but only getting half the salary, the high cost-effectiveness is moving.

From 6:26 to 6:29, several employees from the early shift arrived at their posts one after another, marking the locations very precisely.

"Master Qin, these are the pre-orders from yesterday's group. They must be delivered between 9:10 and 9:25. I've printed out a list here. Take a look..." Huang Xi stood near the window holding a few lists.

"I'll do it, I'll do it!" Qin Luo raised her hand actively, indicating that she was familiar with this job.

When I was in my hometown, although Qin's breakfast shop didn't offer takeout, it would occasionally receive takeout orders from regular customers, and if we were lucky, we would get big orders. For example, the chefs at a nearby kindergarten went on strike due to an emergency, the road near the primary school was dug up and the cables were cut, so the school urgently needed to buy a batch of cheap steamed buns and rice porridge as lunch, and the director of the Sanmalu Children's Welfare Institute received a donation and decided to spend a huge amount of money to improve the food...

Whenever something like this happened, Qin's breakfast shop would always be lucky enough to receive a big order and make a profit.

Huang Xi subconsciously looked at Zhao Rong.

Although Qin Huai is the actual boss of Yunzhong Canteen, he is a hands-off boss who doesn't care about anything at all. All matters of the canteen do not even need to be reported to him. They can be reported to Zhao Rong or Qin Congwen.

Huang Xi and Zhao Rong finalized the delivery arrangements last night. Each order costs 500 cents. The fee will increase by 1000 cents if orders are delivered that month, and by another cents if orders are delivered.

At present, the delivery rules of Yunzhong Canteen are: the food will be delivered to the workstation within 1.5 kilometers, and the single order will be delivered if it is more than 30 yuan or more than 8 orders in the same office building. Although the delivery fee is low, the distance is short and the orders are concentrated, which is very suitable for employees who are not afraid of heat, want to exercise, and want to earn some pocket money.

The original delivery person was An Youyou.

Although the employees of Yunzhong Canteen were not very familiar with each other, everyone could see that this girl seemed to be quite poor. After Huang Xi had finished talking about this matter in the work group yesterday, An Youyou was the first to raise her hand to sign up. Since the business had just opened, there were not many orders and not much money, so the others did not compete with her.

"Give her some orders from far away." Zhao Rong kept making dumplings. "This girl keeps talking all day long. Let her move more."

Huang Xi smiled and nodded, without moving, and continued: "Master Qin, I actually have another suggestion."

"I asked a few customers yesterday and found out that there are many convenience stores and breakfast shops around here that offer food delivery services. Some convenience stores even offer monthly discounts for hand-pulled pancakes."

"Monthly discount?" Qin Huai became interested. Can you get a monthly discount for hand-pulled pancakes?
Huang Xi nodded: "A hand-pulled pancake with egg, sausage, chicken fillet and fish fillet costs 270 yuan a month, which means that on average a pancake costs less than 10 yuan."

"The best-selling convenience store is said to sell more than 200 hand-pulled pancakes a day."

The convenience store has a daily turnover of more than 2000 just by selling hand-pulled pancakes, which is a sign of opening up a new track.

Qin Huai felt that he seemed to understand: "So you think our cafeteria can also sell monthly packages?"

"It's easy to subscribe for lunch and dinner, but how about breakfast? Our breakfast varieties are not fixed, and the prices vary greatly. It's hard to set a price for a monthly subscription, right?"

But the idea is good, and Qin Huai is a little tempted.

A monthly subscription means volume, and selling breakfast will definitely make money by volume.

Huang Xi smiled slightly: "I also thought about what you said last night. I have the same idea as you. The monthly subscription is not suitable for our cafeteria."

“So I came up with a new plan.”

"Meal coupons."

"There are many kinds of meal coupons, several grades, mixed sales, and discounts for monthly/quarterly/yearly/half-year purchases."

"This is my report. Please forgive me for the roughness of the report. If you think this plan is feasible, I will discuss it with Sister Rong in the next two days and try to launch the new activity within three days."

"If possible, you'd better contact Mr. Ouyang and ask him to print a new batch of flyers, add home delivery/meal coupons and other related activities on the flyers, and most importantly, add our store's WeChat QR code."

Qin Huai fell silent as he looked at the stack of plans, which was at least 20 pages thick.

I took another look at it and was actually a little moved.

It’s so touching that our store actually has someone who can write proposals!
