Chapter 119 Bargaining Techniques
The three of them walked into the restaurant, asked for a private room on the second floor, and ordered some wine and food.

After the waiter exited the private room with the ordered menu, Yang Xingyu took a sip from the teacup, put down the teacup, and asked Liang Ping, "May I ask, why didn't your husband come to talk to me about this matter today?"

"Liang Ping can make the decision! No need for that guy to come."

Yang Qingping opened his mouth to answer.

Yang Xingyu looked at him and then looked at Liang Ping. He wanted to listen to what Liang Ping said about this matter, not what his third uncle said.

Liang Ping nodded slightly and sighed: "You are right, I can really make the decision on this matter, because for our newly opened stores, whether it is signing leases with landlords or other matters, I am the one who uses them. I also paid for the name and the money to open the store, so as long as the two of us can negotiate a good price, those new stores can be sold to you."

Yang Xingyu nodded slightly and asked, "You plan to sell all 10 stores to me?"

Liang Ping nodded and said yes.

Yang Xingyu: "It shouldn't have been long since your new stores opened, right? Why do you want to transfer them so quickly?"

Since the purpose of asking these questions is to satisfy curiosity, it is also to learn from the other party’s lessons.

Liang Ping smiled bitterly, "It didn't take long after we opened. Originally, I didn't agree with opening so many stores at once. My husband insisted on opening so many stores at once. As a result, there were problems everywhere as soon as we opened. First, we couldn't do anything on the first day. Enough to sell goods in 10 stores, and then there are the customers who bought our braised vegetables. Many of them came to us because they had diarrhea after eating our braised vegetables. One of them was a cadre. He suddenly had a stomachache on the way to work, but he couldn't find it for a while. When we got to the toilet, we just got in the taxi. All these people came to make trouble for us. Two of the 10 branches were destroyed, and we couldn’t do business anymore because our reputation was ruined!”

Listening to her say this, Yang Xingyu felt like listening to "Journey to the West".

Not enough goods to sell in 10 stores on the first day of opening?
And it upset the stomachs of many customers?
Cadre pulled in a taxi on the way to work?
Yang Xingyu: "Really or not? You have been selling roast duck for several years, how can you still eat up the stomachs of your customers? Don't you pay attention to hygiene?"

Liang Ping: "When we had only one store, I made all the goods by myself every day, and there was never any problem with hygiene. But this time we opened 10 branches at once, and the amount of goods we need to make every day is too large. I am alone." It was impossible for people to be too busy, so Hu Laosan asked a few chefs he knew to help. These chefs were not very hygienic in their work. It was possible that one of them made braised vegetables or cold dishes, which was eaten up by the guests. It’s broken!”

At this time, Yang Qingping spoke again: "Huh, the chef doesn't care about hygiene. It would be strange if there is no problem! What kind of bullshit chef did your man find? Where did he find it?"

Liang Ping glanced at him and smiled bitterly.

At this time, the food and wine they ordered began to arrive, first two cold dishes, then stir-fried dishes...

The three of them paused their previous conversation and chatted while eating food and drinking.

When all the dishes are served, no waiter comes to disturb you.

Yang Xingyu brought the topic back, "You sold all 10 stores to me this time. What are you going to do next? Will you change locations and open new stores?"

The restaurant business can be cruel sometimes.

As long as there is a health and safety problem, it can basically be declared that the store is hopeless.

This is why from time to time in the catering industry it is revealed that someone poisons the kitchens of competitors.

This is because as long as this kind of problem occurs in a competitor's kitchen, no matter how the police deal with it in the end, it will be difficult for the store to continue operating.

Because customers will put this store on the blacklist, not only will they not come, but they will also persuade others not to come.

"How can I still have the money to open a new store? I won't open it!"

Liang Ping shook her head and smiled bitterly, glanced at Yang Qingping, and added: "In the future, I will at most open a small shop with you to earn some living expenses."

Ok?
Yang Xingyu looked at his third uncle, his eyes swept back and forth between his and Liang Ping's faces several times, and couldn't help but ask: "Hey guys! You two are going to open a store together? Are you now?"

Liang Ping smiled sheepishly, lowered her head to eat the food, and was too embarrassed to look into Yang Xingyu's eyes again.

A smile appeared on Yang Qingping's face, he nodded to Yang Xingyu, and said generously: "Xiaoyu! Liang Ping is now my good friend, a very good friend! Didn't you tell me last time that the roast duck restaurant waiting for you When you start recruiting franchise stores, just build a store for me and waive the franchise fee! Selling roast duck or something, I will definitely not be successful, so I will ask your Aunt Liang Ping to help me do it. I think it is very good, what do you think? Woolen cloth?"

Yang Xingyu: "..."

What is a very good friend?
How did you become such a good friend with a married woman in such a short period of time?
Did you take any shortcuts?
Yang Xingyu looked at the smug third uncle and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Yang Xingyu was dumbfounded for a moment, and with a little luck, he asked: "Aunt Liang, have you divorced Hu Laosan?"

Liang Ping lowered her head as she ate her food, her face slightly red. She shook her head and whispered, "No, Mr. Hu is a scoundrel. I want to divorce him, but he won't agree even if I live or die."

Yang Qingping sneered, "It's okay, you are already planning to file for divorce anyway, just wait for the court to decide!"

Yang Xingyu didn't want to express any opinions on their triangle relationship with Hu Laosan.

After all, Yang Qingping is his third uncle. He is a nephew and has no right to dictate the lives of his elders.Now he just feels that although this woman Liang Ping is not bad looking and still has charm, she has a very bad way of looking at men.

First, marry someone like Hu Laosan.

Now I want to divorce Hu Laosan, but I have found a prodigal son like Yang Qingping.

As for whether Yang Qingping will marry Liang Ping after Liang Ping's divorce?
Yang Xingyu had no hope in his heart.

Because of the original time and space, Yang Qingping changed to countless women but never remarried.

"Aunt Liang, how much do you plan to transfer these 10 stores to me?"

Before Yang Xingyu finished speaking, Liang Ping said: "60. When we opened these 10 stores, we invested more than 70. But now two stores have been smashed and have not been renovated. In addition, we transferred the business because we could no longer continue the business, so I am willing to lose 10,000+ and only want to sell it for 60."

Yang Xingyu was a little surprised.

More than 10 yuan was invested in 70 stores?

When he came to the city with 10,000+, he opened 12 stores at one time.

However, it is possible to invest more than 10 yuan in 70 stores.

For example, if the location of the store is better and the area is larger, the cost will naturally go up a lot.

In addition, when he first opened the store, he could use second-hand items instead of buying new ones.

For example, refrigerators, worktops, sinks, stoves, soup buckets, etc. in the kitchen.

For example, the cash registers and cameras in his 12 stores are all second-hand.

Therefore, the cost of opening a store is relatively low.

People like Hu Laosan may not be so prudent when doing business, and they may buy new things just to save face.

Of course, at this moment, Yang Xingyu would not say this to Liang Ping.

In order to lower the price, Yang Xingyu laughed, "Aunt Liang, don't fool me! My company has 18 stores, and the total investment is less than 70, but you spent more than 10 on 70 stores? I can't believe this. !”

Liang Ping looked up at Yang Xingyu in shock, frowned and said, "Isn't it possible? Your total investment in 18 stores is less than 70?"

Yang Xingyu smiled and nodded, looking at his third uncle, "Aunt Liang, your relationship with me now means that we are no longer outsiders. In front of me, I can't lie to you. The general manager of my 18 stores The investment is indeed less than 70, so if you sell your 10 stores to me for 60, I will definitely not consider it."

"How is this possible? You have 18 stores, so you can't invest just that much!"

Liang Ping said blankly and looked at Yang Qingping subconsciously.

Yang Qingping was also surprised at this time.

The total investment in 10 stores is higher than the total investment in 18 stores?
Yang Qingping scratched his head and said to Liang Ping: "No wonder your roast duck restaurant can't open so quickly. You don't know how to save costs in business. It's so extravagant and wasteful. It's strange that you don't close the door!"

Liang Ping looked sad.

She thinks what Yang Qingping said makes sense, because Hu Laosan really spent money lavishly when he was preparing for those 10 stores. During that time, she controlled the funds to open the store, and every day's expenses came from her hands. That's called a Spend money like water.

After being silent for a while, Liang Ping took a deep breath, looked at Yang Xingyu, and said seriously: "Then 50! I can sell it to you at least 50."

Who wants you to sell it to me?You are my third uncle’s!
Yang Xingyu smiled and shook his head, "Aunt Liang, 50 is too expensive. You ruined the sign. When I took over those 10 stores, most customers thought that the boss had not changed, but only the sign and the salesperson. More Customers may not even look at these 10 stores again. Even if I take over, I still don’t know how long it will take to build a reputation! If nothing happens, I may lose money within half a year. Therefore, there is no way I want 50!"

Before Liang Ping could speak, Yang Xingyu added: "Besides, with 50, I can open a dozen more stores by myself. There is really no need to accept your mess! I hope you can understand."

Liang Ping's face changed slightly, her brows furrowed, and she opened her mouth several times. Before she could speak, her eyes turned red.

When Yang Qingping saw it, he glared at her and scolded: "Don't cry! Let's talk business, let's talk business, don't play the trick of crying, making trouble, and hanging ourselves with my nephew!"

Hearing this, Liang Ping raised her face slightly and tried her best to prevent her tears from falling, but her voice was full of tears, "It really can't be less than 50! Although our family's income was not bad before, Hu Laosan has to spend more money." Even more awesome! Just this year, he bought three gold necklaces, each costing [-] to [-] yuan. Each time he bought them and wore them for less than a month, he would lose money in gambling.

Therefore, our family didn’t have much savings. This time I borrowed 50 yuan from my parents’ house to open a store. Each loan required at least two cents of interest. If these 10 stores could not sell 50 yuan, I would borrow it from my parents’ house. I borrowed so much money that I may never be able to pay it back in my lifetime, and the interest rates are rising every day! "
