Chapter 390: Asking for advice (1)

During the recent end of the year, the price of "Three Bowls Not a Stick" has finally risen, from the previous one to three hundred cigarettes per pot.

Although the price has increased by two times, it has not affected the business of "De Yi Ji" much, and few people have complained. After all, compared with the reputation and quality of "Three Bowls Not a Job", this price is not expensive at all.

At the same time, as the price of "Deyizhu" rose, almost all the restaurants in the entire Tang Dynasty breathed a sigh of relief, and their nerves that had been tense for nearly four months also relaxed. "Deyizhu" still gave them a way out. The crisis of closing the door and closing down has temporarily passed, and it is time to have a good New Year at the end of the year.

Among these restaurants, the most stressful thing and the most sad thing these days is Jiangnan's "Yiheju". The advantages of fine wine have suddenly been lost, and the price of wine has also dropped again and again. If they don't raise the price even if they "get drunk" and don't raise the price, they are afraid they will really lose money.

Moreover, with the rapid development trend of "Deyiju" now, by this time next year, most of the entire restaurant business in the Tang Dynasty will be occupied by "Deyiju". The title of "Yiheju" is the number one restaurant in the Tang Dynasty, sooner or later, and the current head of "Yiheju" is anxious, but there is no way out.

"Brother Liu, you are so smart, can you think of a way for me to save the current decline of our "Yiheju"?" Ren You scratched his head in annoyed manner, looked at Liu Yiyi like a request for help, and said, "Even if you can't beat the "Die Yijiu", at the least, you must keep our "Yiheju"'s current advantage. Otherwise, it won't take long, and "Yiheju" will be closed."

"Is this the purpose of you invited me to the "Yiheju" for dinner?" Liu Yiyi sat casually in the elegant room on the second floor of "Yiheju", took a sip of the best "Qinglan wine", and looked at Ren You with some amusement. I wonder what kind of expression this kid would have when he knew the person he was asking for, the boss behind the scenes of "Deyiju".

When Liu Yi was about to brew "three bowls but no one", he had already thought of the current situation. The new brewing method would inevitably have a great impact on the traditional brewing method of this era. The most obvious thing was that the restaurants at this time had no advantage in terms of quality and price. Under the suppression of new wine, bankruptcy, collapse, and bankruptcy were a very common thing. This was just like the hand-made textiles in the past, and they encountered mechanical textiles in later generations, and they had no ability to resist at all.

Fortunately, "De Yizhu" did not do anything. From the beginning, it left a way out for traditional restaurants. Otherwise, the price alone and the brewing speed of "Three Bowls Not a Stand" would be enough to force any restaurant to a dead end.

"If this is true, you may have found the wrong person," Liu Yiu said to Ren You while chewing every delicious dish on the table: "You also know that Liu is just a scholar. How can he help with this business matter?"

"Brother, I know you must have a solution," Ren Youcai ignored Liu Yi's trick of shirking away. After knowing Liu Yi for a long time, he also understood Liu Yi's temper. If there was really no way, he would not sit here to eat and drink so leisurely now.

"Half a year, no, one year, no water, three years, if Brother Liu can have a way to help me get "Yi Heju" out of the current predicament, I can let my brother eat and drink for three years in our "Yi Heju" and branches in various parts of the Tang Dynasty?" I couldn't bear to let the child get stuck in the wolf, Ren You was cruel and stretched out three fingers at Liu Yi.

"Three years? Brother Ji said this seriously?" Liu Yi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but stop the chopsticks in his hand, showing a saliva, turned his head and asked Ren You, "Whether it's eating, drinking, or treating relatives and friends?"

"Yes, within three years, as long as the elder brother comes to 'Yiheju', all the expenses will be exempted. I will be the young man from 'Yiheju', so I can still do this," Seeing Liu Yi's appearance, Ren You knew there was a door, so he bent over and came to Liu Yi's side and asked Liu Yi, "I wonder if my elder brother has a good recipe?"

"For three years, I can't tell that you, a kid, are you really willing to give up your old job?" Liu Yiu drank a glass by himself, signaled Ren You to sit next to him, and said softly: "In fact, there is no good recipe. You 'Yiheju' may not be able to make ends meet. You should know that although the 'Get drunk' drink is good, their dishes are far from each other than 'Yiheju'. You don't have to worry at all."

Liu Yiuan picked up a piece of crispy broiler and put it in his mouth to chew it carefully. This was his first time to come to Yiheju to drink and eat. The wine and food here are indeed very distinctive, far from what the wine and food in the "Deyiju" store can compare.

"What my brother said is true, but winning by relying solely on wine and food is not a long-term solution," Ren You is not the kind of person who has no long-term thinking: "As his scale continues to expand, 'Do Yi Yi Zui' will sooner or later have his own signature dishes. At that time, 'Yi Heju' is afraid that he will really have no way out."

Thinking of my mother's efforts to do these things every day, she lost weight all over the place, and Ren You felt sad and distressed. Otherwise, based on his previous nature of playing and making fun, how could he think of coming to Liu Yi for advice?

"This is justified," Liu Yiu glanced at Ren You with admiration, put the wine glass on the table, looked at Ren You and said, "In fact, there is no way to get rid of the current predicament."

"Weapon is a trick." Stop Ren You's tendency to ask questions, Liu Yiu said something like this, and he said softly: "This is the art of war, but it is not only applicable to the battlefield. Whether it is life, affairs, communication, or business, you can follow this sentence. As the saying goes, right and strange complement each other, and act beyond expectations, this is the way to win in everything."

"What is the most important thing about opening a hotel, especially a large restaurant like Yiheju and Deyizui?" Liu Yiyi clamped a chewy braised lion's head and filled it into his mouth. He savored the taste contained inside and asked Ren You softly.

"Of course it's good wine and good food!" Ren You put a cup of Liu Yiu and answered obediently.

"no, no, no," Liu Yiuan pulled up foreign language without feeling it, stretched out a finger and shook it gently, and said, "Good wine and good dishes are essential things for every restaurant. Although it is important, it is not surprising and not the most important."

"This," Ren You glanced at Liu Yiyi suspiciously, very puzzled. If good wine and good dishes are not important, what else is there in that restaurant?

"I'm so dull, please teach me!" Ren Youqing bowed to Liu Yiu, wanting to know what kind of clever insights Liu Yiu would have.

"Service!" Another new word popped out of Liu Yi's mouth. Seeing Ren You Dai's face standing in a daze and confused, he explained: "To put it bluntly, he wanted to serve the customers in the store to comfortably, eat happily, and eat satisfactorily, and always smile when he goes out."

"For example," Liu Yiuan further analyzed for him: "You can arrange two maids at the door of the store. When you see the guests coming, you will say 'Welcome'. When you see the guests leaving, you will say 'Go slowly, welcome to come again next time'."

"For example, when you meet a customer, the waiter in the store must smile and greet him enthusiastically, and meet the various reasonable needs of the customers in a timely manner."

"For example, in each elegant room, light sandalwood that makes people feel comfortable and happy when they smell it, and arrange some singers and dancers in the store."

Liu Yi raised his neck and poured another glass of wine, looked at Ren You with a smile, and said, "You can think about the others yourself. In short, it's just one word, customer first! If you do it well and attract others to take care of it, isn't it easy to get rid of your hands?"

After saying that, Liu Yiyou stopped talking. After all, from the standpoint of "Deyiyizhu", this "Yi Heju" is also considered one of his rivals. Being able to teach them such a move can be considered to be a complete righteousness. Liu Yi also has a good impression of Ren Gu and Ren You, mother and son, and does not want them to be depressed.

Liu Yi glanced at Ren You's little face and saw him lowering his head to ponder, hesitating for a while, and then he knew that he must have understood the meaning of the word "service".

"Brother! Your idea is really great! No, I have to go back to find my mother quickly. If my mother knows the way, she will definitely not worry about the future of "Yi Heju"!" After a while, after Liu Yidian took two glasses of wine, Ren You slapped the table suddenly, jumped from the chair and stood up, excitedly bowed to Liu Yidian, turned around and trotted out of the private room.

"This kid has a lot of filial piety." Liu Yiu poured a glass of 'Qinglan wine' into his mouth, and chuckled as Ren You gradually faded out of his sight.
