Chapter 359: Popular(1/2)
People who often listen to cross talk must have heard this piece of singing.
"Business can be tolerated, and harmony makes money. No matter whether you are rich or poor, treat them the same. If you are familiar with the business, you will be smiling when you come to the counter. Don't get sleepy. Don't be in a daze. How can you not make a fortune in a business like yours?"
To be honest, the phrase "treat rich and poor alike" in the lyrics is probably just a self-advertisement similar to a propaganda slogan.
Because if you think about it, you will know that as a businessman, from the perspective of economic interests, how can you not like big customers and aim at wealthy people without concentration?
Just like Ning Weimin and others, that is the most typical example.
Not to mention that the profits are all obtained from those with deep pockets, but the benefits provided to neighbors and friends are also derived from this.
Then of course their main focus must be on doing big business.
This is understandable.
Otherwise, if we cannot “kill” the rich, how can we “help” the poor?
But having said that, it is always true that only with popularity can you have financial resources.
If any businessman really does business by flattering others and openly showing his likes and dislikes towards the rich and the poor, he is definitely a fool.
Because no matter whether you are rich or poor, you will hate this kind of human nature and avoid it.
Therefore, the more skillful a businessman's business methods are, the more considerate and thoughtful he can be on the surface and please everyone.
He does not show any deliberate flattery or flattery towards the rich.
Nor does he show contempt or indifference toward the poor.
Only by operating in this way can we take care of both the upper and lower ends, make both ends meet, and put all the money we can earn into our own pockets.
Obviously, from this point of view, Ning Weimin is also a good example of a clear-headed and shrewd person.
Don't even look at him. The hotel retail business isn't really profitable.
But he knew it well, and it was used as a necessary cover, disguise, storage location, negotiation venue, reputation guarantee, and payment method.
The store still plays an integral role in his business.
Therefore, in the actual business of entertaining customers, he is still enthusiastic and smiling.
Not only will it not bring out an attitude of neglect or contempt.
Even the big brothers, big sisters, uncles and aunts called out and spoke very pleasantly.
Obviously he knows that everyone who comes here wants to sell his goods cheaply.
But he kept thanking everyone who bought things for taking care of his business.
Obviously some people are cash-strapped and have limited spending power, so they can only buy a pack of cigarettes and a bottle of wine.
However, he politely exposed his shortcomings, saying that the store had few small items and could only guarantee that the goods were genuine and asked the other party to be more tolerant.
Even if someone is temporarily inconvenienced and wants to buy something but doesn’t have any money with him.
As long as you ask if you are a guest who lives nearby, he will be impatient and will quickly ask someone to take away the cigarettes and alcohol first.
I still have to say a few kind words.
"Just send it over when you have time, or wait until you come to take care of business next time, and we can work it out together. From now on, our dealings will not be a day or two, and we can't trust each other. It's a trivial matter, don't worry about it.
Don’t worry…”
In short, his tone and words did not imply the other party's poverty or look down upon them.
Not only did the other party buy the items in the store, he was also psychologically satisfied.
Then think about it, in this way, led by his example.
Others will follow the same example when entertaining customers, and they are good-tempered.
As for the customers who bought the goods, not only did they think the goods were valuable, they also had nothing to say about the service attitude of the tobacco shop.
When I go back, I have to continue telling others about the benefits of this place.
So for a cigarette shop, isn’t it more like “blowing the trumpet on the wall—famous”?
If this business is not popular, then it really makes no sense.
In fact, after closing the door at 6:30 in the evening, Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui roughly counted the cash in the cash box.
They were surprised to find that they actually sold as little as two hundred yuan a day.
Good guy, if this happens every day, the monthly turnover of 6,000 yuan cannot be underestimated.
And based on a profit of 2%, it can almost earn enough to hire two people.
Such an outcome was something none of them expected.
However, what surprised them even more was that the biggest reward of the day actually came from "Zhang Dashao".
Originally, they were going to invite everyone to eat out today.
The landlord "Zhang Dashao" was also specially invited to celebrate and express his gratitude for the opening of the store.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Dashao changed his mind about what he had agreed to do.
On such a hot day, the old man actually took the initiative to cook several dishes and easily entertained them with his delicious dishes.
The old man also moved out the tables and chairs himself and set up all the dishes, bowls and chopsticks in the courtyard.
There's no need to doubt "Zhang Dashao's" craftsmanship. If he catches up with a few more people, he'll be really hungry.
Once the aroma of the delicious food wafts to the front, no words are needed at all.
It didn't take much time to draw them all into a tizzy, and all of them were recruited to the back yard.
Needless to say, when Ning Weimin and the others watched and conjured up several delicious dishes on the table.
Everyone was stunned.
"Zhang Dashao" was wiping the sweat from his neck and talking happily like an old naughty boy.
"You didn't expect that, did you? Do you know why I didn't eat you today, but let you eat me instead? Hehe, let me tell you, it's because you have a human touch in doing things."
Followed by Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui.
"Hey, you guys didn't lie to me. When you do business, it's not fake, it's real. I like it."
"The prices of the things you sell are real, good! You are also considerate of these neighbors. To be honest, I haven't seen a shop that accepts credit for a long time. There are not many young people like you who know how to behave these days.
"
"I have to say, I feel really at ease now about renting my house to you. I praise you all to the neighbors, which makes me feel proud as well. I'm treating you to this meal. You guys,
It goes well with the food I cook."
What else could Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui say at this time.
I was trying to be polite, but before I could say anything, my stomach growled and my mouth gave them away.
Nothing else, just thank you and start eating. What are you waiting for?
But unexpectedly, the old man stopped them again, saying that he still had something to say.
"Don't be anxious yet. I have to tell you two things before you can serve them."
"First of all, I don't care about cleaning up. After eating and drinking, you come to deal with the aftermath. Besides, the food is mine, but you have to pay for the wine."
"Besides, if you lose money or make money from your business, it's all yours. We can't discuss my rent. How much should be paid..."
Hey, that's right.
This is the style of "Zhang Dashao", everything is on the surface.
Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui looked at each other and smiled almost at the same time.
One said, "Okay, don't worry, I'll do as you say."
The other one nodded, "No problem, just wait and I'll get some good wine from the library, so that it's worthy of your craftsmanship."
Just like that, everyone finally washed their hands and went to the table happily, stretched out their chopsticks in a swarm, and ate happily at the good wine and food.
Soon, apart from the sound of chewing, there was only praise on the table.
"What kind of dish is this? This meat is so delicious! It's not greasy at all!"
"Oh, this dish becomes more and more delicious the more you eat it."
"Master Zhang, what kind of dishes are you cooking today? How come we haven't even seen them before?"
It is true that it is not strange at all for them to ask questions.
Because these dishes are all unique private dishes of "Zhang Dashao" and cannot be found in restaurants all over the capital.
The most commendable among them are the three dishes.
Not for anything else, just because no precious materials are used at all.
These three dishes are all made with the most common ingredients and can be called the best of home cooking.
How delicious is that?
Once you explain how to do it, you will understand.
