The Era of Hard Work

From setting up a street stall in the university town at the earliest, to staying in the temporary market, to the official opening of the registered company, including Song Na, Qiao Weiguo and Du Xiaobing, either participated in the whole process, or participated in most of it.

After more than a year of hard work and hard work, a concept has become clearer in their minds - location selection is the most important thing in opening a store.

Not to mention far away, why did the first Lu's Malatang succeed? Because of the unique taste? There is indeed an element of this.

But the location of the store may be more critical.

The intersection is the central point of the university town, and there are so many college students with independent consumption ability nearby. No matter which direction you come from, southeast, northwest, you can easily find Lu's Malatang.

Instead of running to the corners to find them.

At the end of the meeting, Lu Dong concluded: "To open a restaurant, a good location is like a good background. Just the starting line can beat others by several blocks. You can't choose a person's background, but you can control the location of the store! The focus of the new store in the next step is Ginza and RT-Mart!"

Du Xiaobing said: "I am sure to win RT-Mart."

With his family's relationship and Yu Zhanlong's matchmaking, Lao Du is full of confidence.

Lu Dong answered, "I'll be in charge of Ginza."

Seeing the strong fighting spirit of her companions, Song Na answered, "I will provide logistics services for you."

Having been in Taidong for many years, the Great Ivan is very aware of his own advantages: "Let me deal with government departments and complete the formalities."

As one of the shareholders, Qiao Weiguo touched his bald head and said: "I will do a good job in store training."

Start-up companies have this benefit, and everyone will not lack enthusiasm.

"Okay!" Lu Dong said, "Let's work together!"

When the meeting was over, no one said much, and each of them took up his own responsibility.

Even Song Na just whispered a few words to Lu Dong, and went out with Xue Tian to purchase the office supplies needed by the company.

Du Xiaobing continued to go to Quannan, Lu Dong directly called Zhang Mingyu in Ginza, and learned that he would come to the university town to inspect the specific location, and insisted on having a treat at noon, and then called Qian Rui and Director Zhao, Invite me to accompany you at noon.

Lu Dong asked Big Ivan to go with him.

There is a basis for cooperation in front of it, and it will be easier to cooperate more. After lunch, Lu Dong and Zhang Mingyu basically reached an agreement. After Ginza confirms the address of the university city, he will notify Lu's Catering as soon as possible.

It is not difficult to rent a shop nearby.

There is no suitable place at the intersection of the center. The first option for Ginza is near the convention center in the south.

There are three residential areas and many medium-sized universities there.

The flow of people is the lifeblood of catering companies. In this era, the information is not transparent enough, and it is difficult for the general public to find the route to eat the food of the same family. Stores for mass catering like Lu's Catering must be opened in places where the traffic is concentrated.

For at least ten years in the future, shopping malls centered on supermarkets will be gathering places for customers.

In addition to Ginza, the university city, Honglou Ginza near the Provincial University Garden Plaza is also undergoing final preparations. It is adjacent to the Provincial University and the largest residential garden area in the southeast. Before the relocation of provincial university students, Lu Dong excluded the Garden Plaza from the march. It is not the first choice for opening a store in Quannan, but it can be used as an option for the second batch.

As long as the addresses of these two places are confirmed, Zhang Mingyu will say hello to Lu Dong.

It's not a big deal either.

Subsequent renting of houses or other things will require Lu's Catering to do it by itself.

To put it plainly, it is a question of money. As long as the rent is paid in place, it is not difficult to get the store first.

The rent will definitely be expensive, but in terms of passenger flow and customer gathering points, it is one step away from three cities.

After dinner, Director Zhao and Zhang Mingyu were sent away, and Qian Rui followed Lu Dong upstairs to sit in the company.

After entering the office and sitting on the sofa, Qian Rui said, "Lu Dong, your place is much better than mine. This is what a regular company looks like."

Lu Dong said with a smile: "Establishing a company means formalizing development."

Qian Rui asked: "I heard that your business in Quannan is good?"

"It's okay." Lu Dong had nothing to hide, and said simply: "The Guangmei Electric Appliances, Qiansheng Commercial Building, and RT-Mart Supermarket next to the store have held big promotions for their opening successively. "

Qian Rui knew where Lu Dong's new store was located, and said, "The location of the new store is well chosen, and the rent is not cheap?"

Lu Dong said: "The three stores are close to 800,000 a year. Fortunately, the passenger flow and turnover are worthy of the high rent."

Song Na heard that Qian Rui had arrived, so she went into the office to greet Qian Rui, smelled the strong smell of alcohol on both of them, went out to find a cup to make tea, and specially made two cups of strong tea and brought them over.

"Thank you." Qian Rui said hastily: "Xiao Song, don't be so busy, I just got drunk and can't finish it."

Song Na sat down next to Lu Dong, and said, "Brother Qian, sober up."

Qian Rui patted his forehead: "Yes, I have to let go of the smell of alcohol before going back, now Juanjuan can't smell the smell of alcohol and smoke."

Lu Dong answered, "Sister Juan's due date is coming soon?"

Qian Rui nodded slightly: "It's coming soon, less than ten days." He pinched his forehead: "Xiao Song, go and talk with Juanjuan when you have time, she has been anxious recently."

Song Na smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go again in the afternoon."

She had just been there at noon.

Qian Rui wanted to stay here longer, but before he could say a few words to Lu Dong and Song Na, his cell phone rang, and he hurried to the construction site.

No way, now he has two construction sites, and the construction schedule is tight, so he is always busy.

Send Qian Rui to the elevator all the way, and wait for Qian Rui to get on the elevator before Lu Dong and Song Na go back.

Song Na leaned over and sniffed Lu Dong like a puppy.

"You smell like alcohol all over your body." Song Na asked concerned, "How much did you drink?"

Lu Dong told the truth: "There are so many people, I can't count them. The people from Zhao Ge and Mr. Zhang's unit have been tested for a long time, and they are all huge. I can only risk my life to accompany the gentleman."

Song Na felt distressed, took Lu Dong's arm, and said, "Pay attention to your body."

Lu Dong nodded: "Drinking is inevitable on such an occasion, and I don't like this kind of thing. When did you see me drinking by myself?"

Song Na thought about it carefully, usually Lu Dong didn't even drink beer.

The two returned to the office, Song Na went to pour out the cold tea, and made a new cup of strong tea for Lu Dong: "Drink some tea to hangover."

Lu Dong sat on the couch, and pulled Song Na to sit down: "Okay, you've been busy for a long time, take a rest."

Song Na touched the wooden armrest of the sofa with one hand and said, "It's okay, I'm not tired."

Lu Dong picked up his teacup to drink water, and asked, "I've been busy with Quannan these days. Heidan, I didn't ask you, how is the new store?"

"Very good." Song Na said with a smile, "Business in the new store in the south is very good. There are more girls there, no worse than the one at the intersection in the center. In the dormitory area of ​​a factory, the business is okay.”

She added: "I heard that the higher authorities intend to let Quannan University move here to further strengthen the regional advantages."

Lu Dong thought for a while and said, "I've heard from Brother Zhao that this matter is somewhat difficult, and the specific situation has not yet been determined."

After drinking too much alcohol, Lu Dong was prone to sleepiness, and his upper and lower eyelids seemed to be fighting.

After Lu Dong drank half a cup of tea, Song Na got ready to get up: "Lie here and sleep for a while."

Lu Dong grabbed her and said, "Heidan, don't go."

Song Na had no choice but to sit here, and Lu Dong leaned down, pillowed on Song Na's long legs, and deliberately leaned in to find a more comfortable position.

"I'll just sleep for a while." Lu Dong closed his eyes, "Hei Dan, I'll lend you your leg for half an hour."

Song Na would not let Lu Dong get up, caressing his face: "Sleep, have a good rest."

Lu Dong moved in again, turned around, and faced Song Na, most of his face got into Song Na's open gray woolen coat, buried in front of the sweater on his flat belly, his nose was full of faint Clear fragrance.

Song Na gently pinched Lu Dong's nose: "Don't blow your breath."

Lu Dong remained silent, leaning against Song Na's body without speaking.

Because of Song Na's long-term exercise, the muscles on her long legs are full of elasticity, and Lu Dong's pillow on it is much more comfortable than a pillow.

"Go to sleep." Song Na gently patted Lu Dong's back as if coaxing a child.

After drinking too much wine, Lu Dong's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and soon he fell into a deep sleep.

Maybe the couch was not very comfortable, and I didn't have a lot of meetings, and I even snored a little.

Song Na slightly adjusted her sitting posture so that Lu Dong could sleep on her pillow more comfortably, looked down at her boyfriend who looked like a big boy, and couldn't help shaking her head with a smile.

It was in front of her that Lu Dong would let go of his burden.

Song Na hugged Lu Dong tightly, and the two stuck together, inexplicably sweet.

At some point, Song Na started to feel dazed as she held Lu Dong in her arms.

After a while, Song Na's legs felt sore and she woke up.

Seeing that Lu Dong was fast asleep, he didn't move, and continued to let Lu Dong sleep on his long legs.

The office door was knocked from outside, and Xue Tian's voice came in: "Mr. Lu, the form of Hanlin Food Processing Factory needs your signature."

Song Na shook Lv Dong slightly. Hearing the voice outside the door, Lv Dong quickly sat up, stretched himself, picked up the teacup and drank the remaining water to rinse his mouth.

Taking advantage of this time, Song Na subconsciously arranged her clothes.

Lu Dong went to the desk: "Come in."

Xue Tian came over, smiled embarrassedly at Song Na, put the receipt on Lu Dong's desk, and explained: "The people from Hanlin Processing Factory are waiting..."

Lu Dong took it over and took a look, making sure there was no problem, and signed his name.

Xue Tian took the list and hurried out of the office.

Song Na rubbed her thighs and stood up: "I'll go to Sister Juan's place to see again, if you need anything, call me."

Lu Dong said, "Okay, go and have a look."

Not long after Song Na left, Du Xiaobing called and talked with the people from RT-Mart at noon. Since the two parties were neighbors in Qiansheng Commercial Building, they knew each other well, and thanks to Zhanlong's matchmaking, the two parties had a pleasant conversation.

RT-Mart Lixia store is under preparation. This is a comprehensive store centered on supermarkets and other stores. Lu Dong and Du Xiaobing discussed that this place will be one of the second batch of Lu's Catering stores.

Lao Du took up this important task with all his strength, and will continue to negotiate with RT-Mart in the future.
