The strongest card system

After Ye Feiyang calculated, he asked: "Dad, take a look, am I right?"

Ye Zhichao looked at Ye Feiyang's bill, and couldn't help but widen his eyes: "You're absolutely right. I've never done calculations like this before, and I don't have any idea of ​​how much wasted. Only after reading it today do I know what to do." This wine will waste so much."

At this time, Xu Yanfeng also came back after eating, and seeing Ye Feiyang and his son talking, she asked, "What are you talking about?"

Ye Feiyang handed the bill to Xu Yanfeng: "Mom, this is the food money that Liu Yongde threw out of the wine today, take a look."

Xu Yanfeng looked at the data on the bill, with an unbelievable expression on her face. It was obvious that she had never thought about wasting so much money by having a drink before.

Afterwards, Xu Yanfeng calculated her own situation: "Liu Yongde runs 100 tables of wine, wasting 12 yuan, and we run 80 tables, which is close to 10 yuan! Even if it is calculated as the cost price, it is at least 5 yuan."

"Mom, do you think we need to waste 50 yuan because of the face problem when we help Dad celebrate his 5th birthday?"

"You think I'm stupid, that's 5 yuan! Face? How much is face worth?"

Ye Feiyang chuckled: "Then we have to change the menu."

"Change!" Xu Yanfeng directly made a decision without asking Ye Zhichao's opinion.

However, Ye Zhichao still expressed his opinion: "Even if it is changed, it cannot be changed too much, after all..."

"Lao Ye, according to you, you still seem to want to save face?" Xu Yanfeng looked at Ye Zhichao, as if you must listen to me.

However, Ye Feiyang said: "Actually, if we want to avoid waste, there are two ways to improve: one is not to pay attention to face at all, the dishes are still those dishes, but the servings of the dishes are only 1/3 of the original; This method of modification is to pay attention to appearance, which means that the money spent is still so much, but the variety of dishes is changed from some cheap dishes to more expensive dishes, so that the guests can eat well and be full, but Try not to waste it."

Xu Yanfeng thought for a while: "I think it's enough to just reduce the portion of the dishes. There's no need to save face. After all, it's 5 yuan."

Ye Zhichao put forward a different opinion: "I think combining the two, the number of dishes is 1/3 of the original, and the variety of dishes is slightly more expensive, and it doesn't need to reach the budgeted amount before."

Xu Yanfeng didn't have much objection this time: "I think it's best to spend as much as you want for the gifts, and spend as much as you want for the wine. You don't want to make money, and don't want to lose money. It's fine to have a wine and everyone is happy."

Ye Zhichao nodded: "That's fine."

At this time, Ye Feiyang asked: "Dad, Mom, we don't accept gifts for the wine, is that okay?"

"No gift?" Ye Zhichao and Xu Yanfeng said in unison, both surprised.

Ye Zhichao asked, "Feiyang, why do you have such an idea?"

Xu Yanfeng was calculating again: "Our estimated cost was more than 7 yuan before. Even if the number of dishes is directly reduced to 1/3 according to what I said before, it will still cost more than 2 yuan. If you don't accept gifts , more than 2 won't be a direct loss?"

Ye Feiyang looked at Xu Yanfeng: "Mom, how many gifts do we have to send out in an average month now?"

Xu Yanfeng did the math: "About seven or eight thousand."

"Mom, don't you think it's a bit beyond our means to spend so much money on gifts every month with our family's income?"

"Of course I know this. Our place only started this year to hold wine and give gifts like this. If it weren't for us not having any savings before, if it wasn't for your dad who can help others do water and electricity installations to make some money, we would also Maybe like your uncle, he borrowed money and gave gifts everywhere."

"Our family doesn't need to borrow money to give gifts at the moment, but what about after a while? After a while, the savings will be used up, and the little money Dad earned won't be enough to give gifts. At that time, won't we be in the situation of uncle's house?"

"It's something that can't be helped. Everyone is like this, and we can't change it."

"Why can't it be changed? What I said about not accepting gifts is to change this situation."

"Can it be changed in this way?" Xu Yanfeng didn't believe it.

Ye Feiyang nodded: "Of course we can change, even if we can't change others, we can at least change ourselves."

Ye Feiyang went on to say: "When we serve wine, we will not accept gifts first. Then, when others serve wine, we will not give gifts. If someone talks gossip, let them talk about it."

"This..." Xu Yanfeng's thoughts seemed to be unable to keep up with Ye Feiyang's thoughts.

Next to him, Ye Zhichao also quietly listened to Ye Feiyang's suggestion. For a while, it was difficult for him to accept Ye Feiyang's idea.

Ye Feiyang's words didn't stop:
"If our family took the lead in doing this, I guess many people who are worried about gift giving will respond positively."

"They will learn from our way. They don't accept gifts when they serve wine, and they don't give gifts when they go to eat wine."

"If some people disdain our approach, that's okay. We don't have to go if they serve wine, but we don't care if they come or not. Anyway, we don't accept gifts."

"..."

Regarding Ye Feiyang's point of view, Ye Zhichao digested it for a while, and then asked a practical question: "Feiyang, I agree with what you said, but as far as we are running the wine this time, if we don't accept gifts, we owe others There is no way to pay back the money for the food.”

"Dad, even if this is the case, we can't accept gifts, not to mention, we don't have to owe anyone money at all."

"No need to owe money, where will the money come from?"

"Because I have."

But Xu Yanfeng interrupted: "Feiyang, where do you have money? I know you are filial, you obviously have no money, but you say you have money, and then go outside to borrow money..."

"Mom, I'm really rich."

"You don't even have a normal job, where do you get the money? By the way, that Sun Yan said yesterday that you are a volunteer in the orphanage and you don't get paid, right?"

"Even if I don't get paid to work in the orphanage, I can make money in other ways!"

"Other ways? What way?"

"Uh... Didn't you say that Uncle Lei told you that when he was in Shencheng, I helped him heal his illness when I called last time? My medical skills are very good. It's not difficult at all to make money with medical skills. "

"The more you say it, the more outrageous it is. Uncle Lei himself is not sick, and you have cured his illness and have good medical skills. Do you think I will believe it?"

"Mom, why don't you always believe what I say? If Uncle Lei just said it verbally last time, you didn't believe it, but Uncle Lei must have relevant information when he inspected in Shencheng. You can ask him to know gone?"

"Is that even a question?"

"Anyway, I don't accept gifts for the wine business this time, and I will also be responsible for the purchase of materials, so you don't need to interfere."

"How can this make you responsible? Let's figure out a way."

"No, I said I'm in charge, and I'm in charge. Besides, I don't need to ask third uncle for buying ingredients. I can solve it myself."

At this time, Ye Feiyang suddenly thought of Ma Chao in Hangzhou. He is the owner of a big hotel. Although he doesn't understand the wine business, if you call him, as long as you tell him what you want, he will definitely do it right away. I can help myself.

After arguing with my parents for a while, they finally agreed that Ye Feiyang would be in charge of serving the wine.
