The lamb chops and steaks on the stone plate were turned over and continued to be grilled. The first batch of food on the barbecue grill was already cooked. Qingqing and Xiacao put it on plates and distributed it to everyone to eat first, then came back immediately to help Yan Shu.
"How about it, Ninth Sister, let's see if it's time to add the seasoning?" Yan Xi humbly asked for advice.
"Yes, the eldest brother is really good. He can bake better than me." Yan Shuang flattered the financial owner. Just waiting for Yan Xi to take the bait and become an investor, isn’t he the sponsor?
"Brother, you have invested so much in business. If you open a restaurant, you will definitely make a lot of money!" Yan Yu suggested.
"This is good. Jiumei's barbecue is one of a kind. The smell alone can attract many people." Yan Yan also helped recommend it.
"Yes, what you said makes sense. Ninth sister, are you willing to open a restaurant with the eldest brother?" Yan Xi looked at Yan Shu's sincere invitation.
"Thank you, the eldest brother, for your appreciation, but I am a woman who doesn't know how to do business, so I'm afraid it will hold back the eldest brother." Yan Shu declined politely at first.
"It doesn't matter, Jiumei doesn't have to worry about business matters. You have many ideas, just help me design the menu." Yan Xi continued to persuade.
"It's okay to design the menu, but these dishes are very simple to make and easy for others to learn," Yan Shu said.
"What Jiumei said is true, what do you think we should do?" Yan Xi humbly asked for advice.
"When you launch a new dish at the beginning, it will definitely be popular. If you want to keep it popular, you must have your own characteristics. For example, use your own special seasoning formula or special sauce. These inconspicuous things will make others... It's hard to imitate." Yan Shu nodded.
"Seasoning formula? Sauce? These knowledgeable people can prepare it themselves." Yan Xi expressed his doubts.
"It is indeed possible to make it, but it will take time. As long as we wait for others to make it, we will do promotions and launch new dishes. We will always be one step ahead in speed, and maybe we will have the opportunity to stand out." Yan Shu said.
"Jiu Mei is indeed very insightful. How can you say she doesn't know how to do business? Her courage is no worse than that of a man!" Yan Xi affirmed Yan Shu and now he has become a fan of Yan Shu.
"What is a promotion?" Yan Yan said she didn't understand.
"For example, barbecue is the most popular dish in our restaurant now, priced at 5 cents per skewer. At the same time, other restaurants have also launched barbecue, and they sell it for 4 cents per skewer. At this time, we are no longer an exclusive business, so I will make a promotion During the event, it only sells for 2 Wen per skewer, and at the same time, a new dish called Beggar's Chicken is launched. I sell this Beggar's Chicken for 10 Wen each." Yan Shu gave an example.
"Understood, although it seems that we are losing money on the barbecue, if we attract all the customers, we will have the opportunity to introduce new dishes. We have to make money from new dishes. This is a promotion, Jiu Mei, am I right? "Yan Xi explained.
Yan Yan couldn't help but give Yan Xi a thumbs up: "Brother the Emperor is indeed a business wizard, he can get things done with just a few clicks."
"I admire Jiumei's knowledge even more. It's settled. I'll pay for the money to open the restaurant. Jiumei, you only need to be responsible for designing the menu and helping with ideas. Let's make money together, how about 50/50?" Yan Xi made the decision on the spot.
"Okay, listen to the eldest brother." Yan Shu also nodded.
Everyone is really happy. The barbecue has been cooked for several times, the lamb chops and steak are also ready. Yan Yan has prepared the sauce and distributed it to everyone. After all the food is served, the beggar's chicken can be unearthed.
None of us have ever eaten these foods before, but now we can eat them all at once. We are so happy! Everyone had a great time eating, drinking, and chatting even more enthusiastically. There is warmth and peace in the palace!
