Is a set of billiards equipment expensive for two hundred yuan? Compared with the high cost, this thing is more cost-effective than assembling a bicycle, and the total cost is less than 50 yuan.
But compared to a bicycle that starts to depreciate after you buy it back, this thing can be very profitable. Not to mention other things, in this era when life is extremely short of entertainment items, there are definitely people who can play for 1 yuan an hour, or 2 cents a game.
And this thing basically requires no maintenance. Yang Dongxu is not a shady businessman, so although the cost is not high, these things are durable and can be used for more than half a year or even a year without maintenance at all.
Even if it is broken, the most you can do is remove the cloth on it and replace it, or replace the rubber, and the shelf will be fine for a year or two.
If we follow the charging standard of 1 yuan an hour, not to mention that this thing is not idle for twelve hours during the day, even if there are people playing for five hours, it is only five yuan a day, and it will be almost paid back in one and a half months, and the subsequent income All earned.
Even taking into account the cost of renting a house and staff work, all investment can be recovered within two months at most, and then continue to make profits. So this thing is not expensive at all in Yang Dongxu's opinion.
"I have three sets of billiard tables here. You can just find a place to put them up. It's easy to get started with just a few touches. For one yuan an hour, someone will definitely play. You can put it back and try it first, and then decide whether to use it again. Get a few sets." Yang Dongxu thought about it for a while and said.
"No problem, you are so generous. It would be shameful for me to push three or four first." He took the club and tried a few tools and nodded.
Not talking nonsense, the set of equipment in front of me was directly carried away by a few boys, and the remaining two sets were called for in a while. They didn't go far, and just passed two intersections. There was a vacant space where there were usually a few places selling vegetables, which was pretty good. Dongzi asked someone to put down their things.
There was no need to greet anyone. He personally took a cue and started playing with his younger brother. The rules of billiards were very simple. There was no need to teach him orally, he could just watch a few games from the side.
As he became more and more proficient, Dongzi became more and more addicted to playing. As a result, after the other two tables were brought over, he and his younger brothers were all playing and no one else could get involved.
After watching it for a while, Yang Dongxu knew that the table he had made would not be sold, so he turned back to the hotel and let Dongzi figure out the rest.
"Did you tinker with those things at the intersection?" Zhou Yiren did not go to the courtyard after get off work in the evening, but came to the restaurant. When I entered the hotel, I didn't ask about the performance, but directly asked about the pool table I saw at the intersection.
"In order to open this restaurant, I am so poor that I have stopped assembling bicycles. Naturally, I have to find other ways to make money, right? Godfather, if you have time to care about this, you might as well care about your job." Yang Dongxu Lying lazily in the chair.
"What happened to my job?" Zhou Yiren was stunned for a moment.
"What else is going on? You are encouraging the development of the economic market and encouraging the educated youth back home to start their own businesses, right?" Yang Dongxu sat up.
Zhou Yiren looked at him without saying anything, waiting for the next step.
"The encouragement policy is not what you come up with. You just send out a few documents to call for it, and then provide some conveniences to entrepreneurial educated youths. You let go of the lower levels, but the upper levels are still restricted. People who want to start a business, even if they want to do something, It can’t be done either.”
"What do you mean, please explain clearly." Zhou Yiren's face became serious.
"Do you know how long it took for our restaurant to apply for a business license?" Yang Dongxu asked back, and without waiting for Zhou Yiren's answer, he said directly: "Two months, two whole months, we started to apply for this business right after we bought the house. license.
It took a full two months to complete the application. Still carrying your banner, the people at the subdistrict office helped with many things, making it simple and timely. It only took two months to complete the procedures and get the business license.
This is the result of the help we have from the street office, but what about those who have no means? How long does it take for them to apply for this business license? Half a year, or a year? An educated youth who originally wanted to start a small business on his own was stuck for a year and a half because of the business license issue. Do you think he would still want to start a business? "
"Is it so difficult?" Zhou Yiren frowned.
"It's not that difficult, it's very difficult. Just for the business license piece of paper, Mr. Ling Ling prepared a lot of materials. He went to more than a dozen departments and stamped more than 30 stamps to get it done. This It’s still the result of us knowing what materials to prepare and how to get them. Those who don’t know how to go once will end up not having all the materials ready, and they don’t know how many times they have to go to get a stamp.”
Yang Dongxu complained loudly. He really didn't expect that it would take at least half a month to find an agency in later generations. Now he has someone to work with and has been working on it for two months. Looking at the large amount of materials and so many stamps, he almost almost did it at that time. Not crazy.
"How do you think this matter should be handled?" Zhou Yiren really didn't expect that he had been trying to guide the people at the bottom to develop the economy, but in the end it was the card owner.
"Of course we should set up a department specifically to deal with this matter. Don't talk about taxes or anything like that, just register. Don't go to the housing management bureau today, the tax bureau tomorrow, or even the water conservancy bureau."
If I open a shop and do business, why should I go to the Water Conservancy Bureau? I'm not in the aquatic business. Also, please make a clear list of what materials are needed to apply for a business license.
You don’t know which of the people sitting in the office are all uncles. After waiting in line for more than an hour, they will tell you to get out if you come back next time if you don’t have all the materials. If you ask what you need to prepare when you go back, they will ignore you at all. I saw someone Bringing the divorce certificate with me is a mess..."
"Is it as exaggerated as you said?" Zhou Yiren was a little unhappy. He had always believed that officials were public servants of the people, so he was naturally unhappy that Yang Dongxu described public servants so badly.
"Yes, don't believe it. If you don't believe it, you can run it yourself without identifying yourself. If you can get the business license in two months, no, three months, even if you just open a steamed bun shop, business license, I won’t accept any of those old items you didn’t let me collect from now on.” Yang Dongxu looked particularly like an angry young man at this time, wanting to complain about everything.
Mainly because he was so annoyed by those public servants. Wu Aibing followed the street office for most of the procedures. He only occasionally joined in the fun to have a look. If he followed him the whole time, he would set fire to those departments. All.
Yang Dongxu felt much better when he complained about passing on his anger to his god-grandfather.
Establishing an independent department and detaching some relevant rights from other departments is a big project that cannot be done just by talking. Zhou Yiren is probably busy with this matter, so Yang Dongxu can relax for a while. In order to avoid everything, either Old Man Xuan is staring at him, or his godfather is staring at him, making him unable to do anything.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, Yang Dongxu did not go back to sleep. Instead, he stayed in the brightly lit restaurant and watched the waiter close the door panel for proofing. Zhou Ya, who looked tired but couldn't help being excited, carried a large box to the large box on the left side of the second floor.
The waiters have been getting off work one after another. At this time, the people in the private room are all the hotel's senior executives. After hearing his complaints, Zhou Yiren went back to his workplace to work overtime. He probably had to stay up all night.
Old man Xuan is sitting on the main seat. To his left is an old man in his fifties who is somewhat bald and slightly fat. He is the chef hired by old man Xuan. Nalan Yi, the head chef who has taken 10% of the shares of Yang Family Banquet, is said to be the ancestor of They have been cooks for five generations, and it has been passed down to him for the sixth generation. I don’t know where Old Man Xuan dug up such a treasure.
Although Nalan Yi is slightly fat, he does not have the rickets of an old man in his fifties. He is tall and tall. He looks taller than Zhou Yiren. With that body of flesh, he looks like a chef. He is tall enough. fat.
Normally, Nalan Yi doesn't like to talk much. Apart from drinking some wine with old man Xuan, he rarely even talks to Yang Dongxu, his boss. His family is from a rural area and he didn't bring his family over, so he cleared out a room in the backyard. Just stay in the hotel and you can check the door at night.
On the right side of Old Man Xuan is Yang Dongxu, followed by Wu Aibing, and Zhou Ya who just came in. So the first general meeting of shareholders of the Yang Family Banquet was officially held, and there were actually five people in total.
When Old Man Xuan started, Zhou Ya put the money in the big box on the big table with a huff. She threw the account book directly to Yang Dongxu and asked him to calculate it carefully. The other four people counted the money and then saw if the amount of money and the accounts were correct. .
In addition to the cashier's ledger, the kitchen also has a ledger for ordering and serving dishes. A complete reconciliation requires that all three ledgers and the money amounts are matched. But obviously we can't be so careful today. Let's first look at the daily turnover, which is what everyone is currently concerned about.
"I have 312 and 8 cents here." Zhou Ya, who likes counting money the most, took the lead in losing the large amount of money she had drawn, put the 10 yuan together, and put other banknotes of the same denomination together, and then The coins of different denominations are neatly separated into piles.
"207 yuan and 6 cents." Nalan Yi lost all the money in front of him.
"285 yuan."
"353 yuan and 2 cents." Wu Aibing and Old Man Xuan counted the money correctly in turn.
Then the four people looked at Yang Dongxu at the same time.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, it's almost over." Yang Dongxu began to sweat on his forehead. There were more than 20 pages in the account book. Now there was no calculator. The abacus next to him had already been crackled by his typing, but he was still done. half.
Ten minutes later, Yang Dongxu felt that his fingers were almost cramped and finally finished the calculation, "1163 yuan and 70 cents."
After speaking, Yang Dongxu wrote down a total amount at the back of the account book, and then the abacus crackled again. He tallied the numbers of the four people he just jotted down: "The total amount actually received was 1,158 yuan and 6 cents, which was 5 yuan and 1 cent less." money."
"so much!"
"So much less."
Different exclamations rang out, and Old Man Xuan and the other two were very surprised to hear that the turnover in one day exceeded one thousand. Zhou Ya, on the other hand, is worried about the little money. 5 yuan and 1 cent is enough to buy many buns.
"It's your first day of business, and it's the first time you've kept so many accounts. It's normal to have a slight gap. Just be more serious next time." Yang Dongxu comforted Zhou Ya.
Then he took another account book and started doing calculations.
