Was fired and opened a gourmet food store

The man's car was not far away, just nearby. It was a black Volvo that looked relatively stable and heavy.

Before getting in the car, Xu Ziqi took a look at the license plate, which showed Jiang B, a local license plate in Jiangcheng.

"Are you a local?"

On the way to June 1st Square, Xu Ziqi asked the man driving the car.

"No." The man shook his head.

Xu Ziqi was about to ask again.

The man seemed to realize Xu Ziqi's thoughts and suddenly realized: "Oh, you want to ask about the license plate of this car."

"This is not my car, it's my master's car, and my master is a local."

"Is that so." Xu Ziqi nodded, "Then are you here on a business trip?"

"Yes." The man nodded, "My master asked me to do something and come to see my master's grandmother by the way."

"It's a coincidence that my master's grandmother is also an old customer of your store." After saying that, the man smiled and glanced at Xu Ziqi.

Xu Ziqi also smiled.

His current store radiates the entire business district of Jiefang West Road and several nearby streets.

The man said that his master's wife was an old customer, so she should be a customer who lives near Jiefang West Road.

In this way, it is indeed quite coincidental.

Along the way.

Because the two are not much different in age, and the man is more chatty, Xu Ziqi feels that time passes quickly.

After a while, they arrived at the June 1st Square.

Today is also the last day of the holiday. There are still many people who come out to eat, drink and have fun, and there are not many vacant parking spaces in the square.

However, the two are lucky. As soon as they arrived at the underground garage, they encountered a car driving out, so they drove the car in quickly.

Then one of them carried a suitcase and went to the third floor of the square with laughter.

Walking into this "unknown hot pot restaurant" in the corner of the third floor, Xu Ziqi took a look around and then nodded.

The business of this hot pot restaurant today is better than the previous two days.

There were about five tables sitting in the previous two days, but today, there are actually ten tables.

Although it still looks a bit deserted overall, it has improved, which is a good thing.

Soon after walking in, Xu Ziqi saw Boss Xu coming out of the kitchen.

Seeing Xu Ziqi, Boss Xu also hurried to greet him.

"Boss Xu, you are here, come and sit down."

Quickly leading Xu Ziqi and the other person to a seat, Boss Xu asked the waiter to pour a glass of water.

Then he said excitedly: "Oh, Boss Xu, it's really thanks to you."

"You don't know, the guests yesterday afternoon ate your peeing beef balls, and they all praised it."

"Not only that, they came here to eat again today."

"This is the first time we have repeat customers in our store."

"Look, those guests..."

After saying that, Boss Xu also signaled the guests sitting not far away.

Xu Ziqi looked over and found that there were indeed a few people who looked familiar.

Regardless of whether they are new or old customers, they all have a similar action, that is, their mouths are bulging, like a little hamster.

And what they eat in their mouths is Xu Ziqi's peeing beef balls.

"Are these customers all repeat customers?"

Xu Ziqi was amused by the customers' eating appearance, and turned to ask the boss again.

He only remembered some, not all.

And the boss also smiled and replied, "Half are repeat customers, and the other half are new customers."

"The current situation is that customers come here to eat once and will become repeat customers here." Boss Xu explained.

Xu Ziqi nodded.

This is similar to when he first started selling buns.

At that time, customers ate the buns he made and could never forget them, so they came every day.

It seemed that as long as they didn't eat Xu Ziqi's buns for one day, it would be a big regret in their lives.

"Then I would like to congratulate Boss Xu first, and I wish you a prosperous business." Xu Ziqi cupped his hands.

"Oh, no."

The two exchanged a few pleasantries.

Boss Xu then asked, "Boss Xu, where are the beef balls you brought?"

Xu Ziqi then put the two suitcases on the table, "Here, there are 1,000 in total, do you want them all?"

Instead of Xu Ziqi's full promise, Boss Xu hesitated as he looked at the two suitcases.

"Uh... can I only take half?" He asked cautiously.

Xu Ziqi was a little confused.

Such delicious balls, you only want half?

Do you want me to take the other half back?

Seeing Xu Ziqi's confusion, Boss Xu explained in a low voice without waiting for him to speak, "It's like this, Boss Xu, there is not much money left in the store.

"If you buy too much at once, you may not be able to turn it over."

"And there are only more than 300 left today from the 500 beef balls yesterday."

"The main thing is that I didn't expect you to bring 1,000. I thought it was 500 like yesterday."

"..."

Looking at Boss Xu who was walking on thin ice, Xu Ziqi thought for a while.

It seems that when placing the order, Boss Xu did not say how many he wanted.

He originally thought that Boss Xu could get all of them.

After all, it's only 1,000, not a lot.

And this store is bigger than his own, maybe it's not enough.

But he never expected that such a big store would have to turn over even a few thousand dollars.

You know, a few thousand dollars is only his profit for a few hours.

This is too pitiful...

"Okay, 500 is 500. "

After thinking for a while, Xu Ziqi nodded and agreed.

Since the boss couldn't buy so much, he couldn't force it.

And Boss Xu quickly agreed.

"Well, that's good, thank you, Boss Xu."

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that Xu Ziqi would be unhappy and not sell it to him.

The main reason was that the store was really short of funds, and the reputation of this store was ruined by him before, otherwise there wouldn't be only a few people for several days in a row, and they were all first-time customers.

Under such circumstances, it would take some time to save this store.

"In time, when business picks up, I'll want ten thousand, not to mention a thousand. "

Boss Xu thought secretly, and then promised Xu Ziqi that when the business picked up and the funds were turned over, he would definitely purchase in large quantities.

After receiving the transfer from Boss Xu on the spot, Xu Ziqi carried the remaining beef balls and walked out of the store under the enthusiastic escort of Boss Xu.

At the same time, he felt a little helpless.

"There is still a box of beef balls left, what should I do?"

"Should I take it back?"
