The Boss of the Yan Family in Siheyuan

Chapter 269 Price Increase Controversy

"This is not easy to handle. The prices of food in our hotel will also increase." Yan Jiecheng thought for a while, and he had no choice but to do this, otherwise the profit would definitely be much less.

"Then how much should we add?"

"The price of all meals has doubled."

"Ah...this...isn't that too much?" Yu Li said a little surprised. She didn't expect Yan Jiecheng to add so much at once. You must know that the food in their restaurant is more expensive than other restaurants. This

If it were doubled, there would still be people to pay for it. After all, the current wage level in China cannot be compared with that in foreign countries.

"There will be some impact, but it's not a big problem. Don't worry." Yan Jiecheng thought that if it didn't work, he would specialize in foreigners' business. Anyway, more and more foreigners are coming to China, and most of them come to Beijing. This food is

Although the price is a bit expensive for Chinese people, it is not unacceptable to these foreigners.

Moreover, Yan Jiecheng also thought of a better idea, which is to cooperate with people from travel agencies. Now, unlike in later generations, foreigners basically go to travel agencies when traveling in China.

Let the tour guides of travel agencies bring foreigners to eat with them, and then give you points back according to the amount of consumption. This kind of behavior would be normal in later generations, but it is really not done now.

"If it works, not only will Yan Jiecheng be able to earn more foreign exchange, but it will also be a way to increase income for the tour guides. Anyway, they will eat wherever they go, so it won't have any impact on them."

I did it as soon as I thought of it, so I told Yu Li in the afternoon, then walked out of the hotel and went straight to the China Travel Agency.

When he arrived at the entrance of the travel agency, Yan Jiecheng found a secluded place to wait. When he saw someone leading a foreigner out, he went over and called the person aside to chat for a few words and then handed him a business card.

They promised that as long as they brought people to their restaurants for dinner, they would get 10% of all expenses. Of course, drinks were not included. After all, the profit was not that big, but it had no impact. After all, few foreigners drank Chinese liquor.

After returning from the travel agency, Yan Jiecheng asked Yu Li to review all the prices on the menu, and then found a piece of cardboard to write an announcement about the price increase and hang it at the door, so that customers who came in and out could see the province and start arguing next time.

"Hey, is the owner of this store crazy? This price increase is not like this. It has doubled."

"Yes, although the food in this store is good, it is still worth so much money. Aren't they taking us as the main scapegoat?"

"Hmph, I think this restaurant is about to close. It's so expensive. Unless you're mentally ill, who would eat here?"

"You're right. The food in this restaurant was originally more expensive than other places, but now it's gone up so much. No matter if you come or not, I won't be able to get up anyway."

"There's a new Shuxiang Restaurant nearby. The Sichuan cuisine here is very authentic. Although the environment isn't great and the decoration isn't great, it's cheap. I think we'll eat there in the future."

"Really? You have to try it. Anyway, we can't afford it here."

The guests in the hall started talking when they saw the sign painted by Yan Jiecheng. They all thought that Yan Jiecheng had a seizure and did this.

At this time, the second uncle who was eating here came over.

"Yan Jiecheng, did you write the price wrong? Change it quickly, otherwise something goes wrong. Don't blame the second uncle for not reminding you."

"Second uncle, don't worry. I'm not blind, so how could I write it wrong?" Yan Jiechenghun said nonchalantly. He had expected this situation. It just so happened that the supply of rabbits could not keep up recently, and there were fewer people.

It's not bad to drive, but the people who didn't look at it and said they couldn't come were all domestic people. Foreigners didn't even move. For them, this price is no different from the previous price.

The second uncle looked at Yan Jiecheng and couldn't figure out what he was thinking. In his opinion, even if the price was to be increased, it would be done step by step. There was no reason to increase it so much at once.

"Then you're not afraid that no one will come in the future?" The second uncle was also very curious about this issue and wanted to hear what Yan Jiecheng had to say.

"Second uncle, who do you think are the people who react the most to prices?" Yan Jiecheng asked rhetorically instead of answering directly.

After hearing what Yan Jiecheng said, the second uncle turned around and glanced around at the guests in the lobby. Not to mention, he really made some discoveries.

He found that those who complained were almost all wearing work clothes. The rest of the people were not very well dressed, which meant that the people who complained were all workers or low-income people.

People who do business like him basically don't say anything. Looking at it this way, this incident will have no impact on Yan Jiecheng.

After all, for people like me who make money by doing business, this little increase in money is nothing to them. They care more about face than money.

"Yan Jiecheng, did you do this on purpose?" The second uncle thought of this and said to Yan Jiecheng with a little admiration.

"Second uncle, I really didn't raise the price on purpose, but because I can't help it, the best thing sold in our restaurant now is rabbits.

But the rabbits are in short supply, so we can only raise the purchase price. If the purchase price has increased, the selling price will naturally have to increase, otherwise our hotel will lose money, don't you think?"

"Well, that makes sense. Since that's the case, I won't bother you." As he said this, the second uncle walked back to his seat and continued to eat. He was busy asking Yan Jiechengzuo about the price increase, and he didn't even have time to finish the meal.

…………

Early the next morning, my cousin drove a donkey cart to deliver groceries to Yan Jiecheng. Only then did he learn about the increase in rabbit prices. Although increasing the purchase price of rabbits could bring more income to the village, he was afraid of raising Yan Jiecheng's income by so much.

The hotel lost money.

"Jie Cheng, your hotel won't lose money if the purchase price rises so much, right? If so, it's better not to do this."

"Don't worry, cousin, the hotel won't be affected. You go back and tell everyone. If there are rabbits, let them raise more. By the way, cousin, one more thing, how are the vegetables in the greenhouse growing? No.

Is there something wrong? I'm busy with the hotel affairs at this time and I don't have time to go over and check it out."

As soon as the greenhouse was mentioned, my cousin laughed happily: "Not to mention, growing vegetables in the greenhouse is really successful. They are growing very well and they will be ready in a few days. I will send them over for you to try.

It tastes the same."

"By the way, cousin, have the prices of these dishes been decided?"

"No, this isn't the first time we've grown out-of-season vegetables. We don't know how much we can sell them for, so we'll wait until the vegetables come out. Okay, I'll leave first if there's nothing else to do. I'll tell you where your dad's vegetables are.

I haven't sent it over yet." After saying that, my cousin drove away in a donkey cart.

Since the opening of Yan Jiecheng's restaurant, Yan Bugui no longer has to go to get food every morning. He has to wait for his cousin to finish delivering food to Yan Jiecheng before delivering it to him.
