Chapter 7 Business Direction
After watching Qi Meilan get into the car and drive away, Yang Xingyu gathered his emotions and walked to his motorcycle.

When he walked to the motorcycle, took out his keys and was about to get on the car and leave, he suddenly hesitated and turned to look at this brightly lit food street. It was very popular here, with people coming and going on the street, and almost every store. There are many diners inside.

There are very few crowded shops.

Therefore, he couldn't help but think: If he could open a small restaurant here, the business would be good.

But he just thought about it, because he could guess without asking that the rent of the store must be high due to the popularity here.

The most important thing is that in such a popular place, stores with slightly better locations are rarely sold to outsiders.

Therefore, not to mention that he doesn't have much money at the moment, even if he has money, he may not be able to find a store here that is being transferred to the outside world.

Smiling to himself, he put away the car keys and started to visit the food street as if taking a walk.

He wasn’t looking for stores that were being transferred, but for inspiration.

He hasn't decided yet what kind of store he wants to open next, and this happens to be a food court with all kinds of restaurants. If he looks around more, he might be able to get inspiration for what he can sell.

Because his funds were limited, he mainly paid attention to small shops when he was walking around.

"Laozhang Food Stalls", "Xiao Cui Mala Tang", "Agui Noodle House", "Unforgettable BBQ", "Tiantian Crayfish", "Fruit Wood Roasted Lamb Legs", "Huainan Beef Soup", "Authentic Lanzhou Ramen", " Fragrant claypot rice”…

There are almost no big restaurants in this food street. At first glance, almost all of them are small shops.

Those with two or three storefronts are considered big stores.

Yang Xingyu was walking and looking. When he saw a braised vegetable stall, he stopped and looked at the roast duck in the glass case of the braised vegetable stall. His mind wandered for a while.

It occurred to me that I could make this myself.

Suddenly I thought that my hometown is next to the Qingyi River, and I can let my parents try to raise ducks. Raising several batches a year will definitely be better than farming.

After a while, I thought that the store selling roast duck could be very small, and the rent would definitely not be expensive.

Moreover, these days there are more and more young people who cannot cook, and more and more office workers are busy with work and have little time to cook. There will definitely be no shortage of people buying braised vegetables.

In addition, according to his memory, the price of roast duck has always been low, but the price of roast duck is not low, so the profit of roast duck should also be possible.

He even thought that in the increasingly prosperous Internet era, products like roast duck could be sold across the country through the Internet if they were vacuum packaged.

Even though crispy roast duck is not suitable for sale in vacuum packaging, because the vacuum-packed roast duck skin is definitely not crispy, his business is not limited to roast duck, and can also make salted duck, braised pig trotters, etc.

You can even pickle some salted duck, vacuum-pack it, and sell it online.

The most important thing is that if you make roast duck, you don’t need a lot of initial investment. You can set up a stall with a cost of several thousand yuan.

With a cost of tens of thousands of yuan, he was sure to rent a small store in this county and open a roast duck restaurant.

If everything goes well, within a few years, he will be able to open ten or eight branches in this county, and in the future, he can also open branches in the city and even other cities.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this business was suitable for him.

He didn't think this business was small and unseemly.

Before his rebirth, when he started his own business several times, he cleared away all the ideological obstacles one by one.

He has long been aware of a reality: as a child from a rural area, he cannot compare with capital, let alone those capital giants, even an ordinary person in the city with an ordinary family background.Therefore, if you want to start your own business, you must not compete with others for capital.

In the same way, he also knows that he has no advantages in terms of connections, background, etc.

Even in catering skills, he knew that there were many people across the country who were better than him.

With all these factors in mind, if he wants to start a successful business, what should he rely on?
Before his rebirth, he felt that what he relied on was his reasonably good skills; his determination not to be afraid of hardship and fatigue; and his pursuit of excellence in food quality and service quality.

Of course, he believes that the affordable and affordable approach of the restaurant chain he runs is one of the main reasons for his success in starting a business.

If the main customer group was not ordinary office workers, and if he had focused on the mid-to-high-end catering market, he felt that he would not be successful.

Now, standing on this food street in his hometown, looking at the braised vegetable stalls on the roadside, Yang Xingyu thought of one of his advantages.

——Geographic advantage.

His hometown is a water town in the south of the Yangtze River. There is not much else, but there is plenty of water, which is suitable for raising a large number of ducks. You can get good quality teal ducks at a low cost, instead of never seeing land ducks from river ponds from birth to dinner table.

With this advantage, he is confident that he can sell his ducks all over the country through the Internet in the future.

He knew it was difficult and there were many competitors.

but……

He still has confidence, because his greatest advantage today is not any of the above mentioned, but the prophetic advantage of his rebirth.

He knows that in the near future, selling goods online and being promoted by internet celebrities will be the general trend.

This is a good opportunity for him to overtake in corners.

Having already made up his mind, he stopped lingering, turned back to his motorcycle, got on the bike and headed towards his hometown.

His hometown is Yangjiaba.

It is only a few hundred meters away from Qingyi River.

His house is in the middle of the village of Yangjiaba. It has three red brick houses, with a drying area in front and a yard in the back. There are also three smaller bungalows in the back yard, one of which is a kitchen, one is a toilet, and the other is a toilet. One is a utility room for farm tools and firewood.

There is a courtyard door on the west side of the main house, which leads directly to the backyard.

When he rode to the drying yard at his home, he saw the light in the window of his parents' room changing, and the faint voices of strangers talking to each other, so he knew that his parents were watching TV.

Stopped the motorcycle, stepped forward and pushed open the unlocked courtyard door. He rode the bike into the backyard and stopped. After he parked the car, he went back to lock the courtyard door. When he pushed the door through the main house door to go home, in the hall The fluorescent lamp happened to be on. Her mother, Fang Xiaomei, stood at the door of the room and took her right hand away from the fluorescent lamp switch.

"mom!"

Yang Xingyu shouted with a smile on his face.

But Fang Xiaomei looked at his new clothes, new shoes, and new haircut from top to bottom. She frowned and sighed, scolding: "You have only been back for a few days, and you have bought a motorcycle and a new one." Are you running out of clothes and new shoes? Do you plan to spend all the money you earned outside after graduation this month?"

At this time, his father Yang Qingshi pushed aside Fang Xiaomei who was blocking the door of the room, walked out of the room, looked at Yang Xingyu up and down, frowned, and said angrily: "You have some money to burn! No! You still have something on you. How much is it? Take it all and give it to your mother for safekeeping! You can’t keep any money on you!"
