Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

Zhao Shanhe was not that excited, but Zhao Shanhu and Zhao Shanhai were extremely excited. Twenty thousand a day means six hundred thousand a month.

"Shanhu, the bill is not calculated that way. Today is the opening day, so naturally there are more people. Also, a few of us spread the word in advance, so many people gave us face. We all have good dishes, but many people still can't afford them. I guess it would be good if we could have half of what we have today every day."

"Brother, half is fine, that's not a small amount. Once the other stores are opened, the income will be even greater. Do you want to open a few more stores?"

"It's enough. If we want to open more stores, we can't open any more in Sijiu City. We'll have to open stores in other cities. We're pursuing a high-end route. If we open more stores, they will be everywhere. There are many people in Sijiu City, so we can support a few stores. If we open stores in other cities, one store will be enough, and no more than three.

If you want to open another restaurant in Beijing, you should open a low-end one. Don't use any expensive dishes. Focus on economical and affordable ones. Also, change the signboard. Don't use such good drinks. It's more than enough to use a chef like Ma Hua."

"Got it, big brother. Once these high-end stores are open, I'll open a few affordable stores to test the waters."

"Second brother, my positioning of Sihai Hotel is not just high-end. I want it to become a city landmark. In the future, we will also have affiliated high-end hotels, entertainment venues, and luxury brands to keep wealthy people in Sihai.

You still have to pay attention to the low-end ones, but don't worry, wait until the economy develops and more people go to restaurants, then the low-end ones will be the world, and then there will be supporting facilities, cinemas, shopping centers, and a plaza, but it will be the affordable kind. "Zhao Shanhe's benchmark is the Wanda Plaza of later generations.

Zhao Shanhu didn't expect his elder brother's goal to be so high, and he suddenly felt a huge pressure, "Brother, I'm afraid I can't do it well."

"Don't be anxious, take your time, we are already at the forefront."

In the days that followed, Sihai Hotel opened another one in each district, and everything went according to the plan for the first one.

In addition to going to work, Zhao Shanhe focused his work on his simple clothing factory. Bat-top shirts, bell-bottom pants and leggings, which were the most popular clothes in the 1980s, were all produced by Zhao Shanhe.

"Bai Xue, my requirement for the clothing factory is to quickly occupy the low-end market. We produce by ourselves, and the cost is much lower than that of importing from coastal areas. The trend from Hong Kong and Taiwan has already come. We should seize this trend.

Except for the money for purchasing raw materials, don't save money. Hurry up to expand the scale, but ensure the quality. Wholesale the clothes for others to buy. When the factory is built, we will open stores.

It’s not enough to just go low-end. Once you’re successful, you can also go high-end, open flagship stores, and don’t be afraid to spend more money to hire designers.”

“By the way, the clothes must have our own logo, don’t be afraid of the trouble, make sure to embroider it.

You can't handle it alone, so I'll send Xu Damao to you. You'll be in charge of the factory affairs and take overall control. Leave the external sales to him. Xu Damao is good at speaking, so there shouldn't be any problem with him handling the external sales."

The name of the clothing factory is Huameng Clothing, and the logo was designed by Zhao Shanhe himself, which is very beautiful.

Huameng Clothing expanded rapidly, from ten sewing machines to twenty and fifty. Even these were in short supply, so they soon rented a place and built a factory.

The expansion of Huameng Clothing was faster than Zhao Shanhe had imagined. As the trend of bell-bottom pants and leggings spread further and further, not only small vendors in the old city came to buy goods, but also clothing merchants from several surrounding cities.

The clothes were taken away as soon as they were made, before they even had time to go to the warehouse, and yet the demand still could not keep up with the supply.

The factory became bigger and bigger, with more and more machines, and adopted an assembly line and three shifts. However, the biggest problem arose: there was not enough raw materials.

Xu Damao was given the task at a critical moment and, with the help of Zhao Shanhe, went to the south to look for raw materials and set up a warehouse nearby.

Zhao Shanhe simply postponed the opening of the store and invested the money to open a raw material factory and a clothing factory in the south. The Sijiu City radiated to the north, and the factory in the south was set up in Guangzhou.

The crisis at the Sijiucheng Garment Factory taught Zhao Shanhe that he had to control the source in his own hands, otherwise if the source was gone, the garment factory would become a castle in the air.

Zhao Shanhe's clothing factory asked Li Huaide to find a company registered in Hong Kong Island to invest and build a factory in the mainland and obtain the government's dividend policy.

Zhao Shanhe's transportation company was officially launched and named Sitong Transportation Co., Ltd. Since all the money was invested in the garment factory, he borrowed money by mortgaging the hotel and the garment factory to buy ten Jiefang trucks. Zhao Shandong and his brothers also hired several drivers at high salaries to transport the raw materials.

Zhao Shanhe’s construction company was also established when the factory was built. It was named Huanyu Construction Co., Ltd. The initial team consisted of Zhao Shanhe’s father-in-law, uncle, and others, as well as people from Qinjia Village.

Huanyu Construction Company has not received any work from outside yet, because its own work is enough to support this makeshift team. There is an endless stream of work for restaurant decoration, garment factories in the old city, and factories in the south.

Zhao Shanhe is now taking big steps, and it can be said that he is blossoming in all aspects, involving clothing, engineering, transportation, and restaurants. The only thing missing from Zhao Shanhe’s original plan is an appliance company.

But Zhao Shanhe encountered another big problem: he lacked talent and had too few people under him.

Now the restaurant is in the hands of my third brother Zhao Shanhai. Zhang Baixue is in charge of the clothing factory in Sijiu City, and Xu Damao is in charge of the factory in the south.

The Sitong Transportation Company was managed by his third uncle, who actually served the garment factory. His third uncle was only responsible for the incoming and outgoing raw materials. The company was still too small, with only a few trucks.

Zhao Shanhe's plan for the transportation company is not that simple. He wants to build a large warehouse and a transfer station. When the company develops, the scale will be huge, and there will be more and more business sectors, from the initial transportation, consignment, transfer station, to the later express delivery.

Construction companies are now similar to transportation companies, they are all makeshift teams, but with the economic development and the rapid development of our country, they are inseparable from the construction industry, which has the greatest potential in the early stages of development. Zhao Shanhe attaches great importance to Huanyu.

But he really didn't know who to put in charge of Huanyu Construction. His two uncles were not well educated, and it would be a blessing for them to be qualified second or third in command, but they definitely couldn't be the top in command.

His younger brother Zhao Shanhu wanted to take charge of the overall planning, but he really didn't know who to use. His elder brother-in-law Gao Peng was a technician and was not good at management. His plan for his elder brother-in-law was to build a home appliance company and electronics factory in the future.

The second brother-in-law has worked in the government for many years. He has driven a car and is also good at management. Zhao Shanhe wanted him to manage the transportation company, but his family disagreed. The second sister instead let him be responsible for the finances.

Zhao Shanhe’s idea was to recruit those big guys from future generations under his command in advance to lay a foundation for himself first.
