A strong sense of happiness arose in Emperor Jing's heart.
Just relying on a restaurant business that he looked down upon, the prince had grown so rapidly.
Look at problems from their essence and understand people's hearts.
Not only that, the understanding and sympathy for the people are still in my heart.
This is already the basic quality of a benevolent king, and he is now a fully qualified prince!
but....
Emperor Jing glanced at Fang Zhengyi subconsciously and said, "Zhengyi, what do you think of what the prince said?"
Fang Zhengyi said with a smile: "I feel that the experience gained by His Highness the Crown Prince is enough to benefit future generations. In particular, the court's method of holding regular meetings of factory owners is even more wonderful."
"However, I think one should be added. If this law is really implemented in the future, the court should also recognize a concept. Employers and employees share honor and disgrace, and workers are both producers and consumers."
"If this consensus can be reached and it is deeply rooted in the bones, then management can only develop in a healthy way."
Emperor Jing clapped his hands and praised: "Good! Yes, this is a plan for the country. I am lucky to have such a good son-in-law..."
Although the prince is smart, doesn't he still have such a good son-in-law?
Who deserves the credit? He's not yet dim.
Zhengyi has never forgotten his roots and worked really hard for the prince.
Fang Zheng pursed his lips and said shyly: "My son is today thanks to my father's advice. No matter how good this thousand-mile horse is, it still has to..."
Listen to the two of them singing together.
Li Yuanzhao stood aside stupidly, his expression frozen.
What's going on?
Am I an outsider?
"Ahem." Li Yuanzhao coughed lightly, attracting their attention, "Father, don't you want to know how much money Erchen's restaurant can earn in a year?"
As expected, Emperor Jing was immediately distracted and asked with great interest: "How much money can you make in a year?"
Li Yuanzhao smiled and said: "No more, no more. Now it only fluctuates around 120 taels a day. In the future, new products will be introduced and new people will be added. It is expected that we will have 40,000 to 50,000 taels in this year."
"What about the gross profit... Erchen thinks there is no problem with a minimum of 20,000 taels a year!"
Emperor Jing and Fang Zheng took a breath of cold air at the same time.
Emperor Jing was shocked by this astonishing profit. If he opened ten stores in a year, wouldn't the gross profit be only two hundred thousand taels?
Fang Zhengyi was extremely shocked. He had seen the report sent by Li Yuanzhao, and it was not so exaggerated at all.
Immediately, Fang Zhengyi asked: "Your Highness, the restaurant is not so profitable, right? How did you keep down the costs? Could it be that the report you gave me before...was inaccurate?"
Li Yuanzhao nodded and smiled secretly: "There are indeed some inaccuracies. You have summarized what you said before. Now I have found a new cost reduction plan."
After saying that, he turned to look at Emperor Jing: "Father, didn't you eat a hamburger before? Did the chicken feel tender and juicy?"
Emperor Jing nodded: "It is indeed tender and juicy, but what does this have to do with cost?"
"It's water. I put water in the chicken."
"..."
Damn it! Pure profiteers! Just now, I acted considerate and caring for the people, but in private I was selling water-injected meat! ?
Fang Zheng cursed in his heart.
Li Yuanzhao said without shame: "The chicken is filled with water, breaded with flour and then fried, which can save a lot of costs, and it tastes good. People who eat it always praise it for being rich in oil and water!"
"In addition to water injection, there are also scraps that are sold together every day, such as chicken offal, chicken feathers and bones. The cost of bringing them back is also quite high."
"The best thing is the used oil...the one I sell is 20% more expensive than new oil! The oil used to fry chicken is so fragrant, so people are rushing to get it!"
"So in summary, our cost control and profitability are no worse than those of ordinary large restaurants. If chicken farms can sprout in large numbers in the future, the cost will continue to decrease."
Fang Zhengyi was completely silenced and didn't know what to say.
He had proposed some bad ideas to the prince before, but he rejected them.
It turns out that I realized something better!
Not only did he do something immoral, he also thought he did it beautifully.
Obviously it has reached a very high level!
However, Emperor Jing obviously did not think this was immoral, and instead his eyes were full of admiration.
Beautifully done!
"In this way, there is great potential for opening a branch. If you don't have enough money on hand, I will allocate part of the money for you from my internal funds."
This is not a small amount of money, although it does not have the thrill of getting rich in stocks.
But it is definitely much safer than stocks!
A steady stream of water is the way to go. Now that the prince is doing so well, the father will naturally help him.
Investing in individual stocks by the way... can be regarded as enriching the internal funds.
Emperor Jing secretly made plans for his son.
"No need! I have money!"
"..."
Seeing that he got the approval, Li Yuanzhao continued excitedly: "I haven't finished speaking yet. If you just focus on how to make profits by selling some wine and food, it will be too shallow."
"Many of my peers in the restaurant in Beijing are eager to imitate it. Erchen feels that if this continues, strong competitors will inevitably appear in the future, thus weakening my profits."
"Then the best way is to turn enemies into friends! My method is something that ordinary people want to learn, but it takes a lot of effort, training people, organizing cooperation, and secret recipes for sauces, etc."
"Right now, there are people who are jealous. If I make a day's money, they will be jealous for a day. How about I bring these people together now and sign a contract. They can open the same restaurant as me, just like me. Use the brand of nibbling chicken.”
"And they only need to pay a brand fee, personnel training fee... and give me a share of the subsequent income from sales. They will be able to gain one of the most popular brands in Beijing, as well as the location of the restaurant. Design, staff training, secret sauces, new dishes, and follow-up activity plans..."
"In this way, my restaurant can quickly occupy all the markets and squeeze out competitors in advance! Moreover, it can also receive a large amount of profit sharing from partners. I have been thinking about this method for some time. I should give this business a way Come up with a name..." Li Yuanzhao began to think deeply.
"I think it's better to just call it a chain franchise." Fang Zheng added angrily, his heart already filled with helplessness.
Prince, what are you doing? !
As a fucking time traveler, I have no sense of accomplishment at all.
The loss of one patent can only be made up for by the naming rights of another patent...
"Yes! Chain franchise, this is a wonderful name. It's you, Lao Fang!" Li Yuanzhao's eyes lit up, he clapped his hands and shouted.
"Father, what do you think of my son's behavior?"
Emperor Jing smiled and nodded.
Although he was a little depressed about not being able to buy shares, the prince was even better than he thought. Such various tricks were beyond the ability of an old man like him to come up with.
After thinking about it, Emperor Jing's face was already filled with red: "Very good, very good! This is a wonderful way, and it will definitely help the restaurant become invincible in the future."
"I thought you could just make some small money, but I didn't expect that you would actually gain a lot. From today on, I will no longer be involved in the restaurant business. You can run it well and develop it as you want in the future. However, you can't do it on weekdays. If you stay outside the palace for too long, you should not do everything yourself, but you must learn to select talents."
Li Yuanzhao was overjoyed when he heard this: "My son, I obey the order!"
