Chapter 58: Get colder again

   In the evening, Xu Tongdao and Xu Tonglin pushed the old tricycle out of the small courtyard as they did last night, and walked along the alley towards the river.

  The difference from last night is that they both had smiles on their faces along the way tonight.

   It is mainly because the good business last night gave them a lot of confidence.

   Besides, they have more than doubled the things in their car today.

   Not only has the ingredients more than doubled, there are also two more folding tables, and eight more plastic stools.

   They only had three small tables last night, so their ability to pick up guests was a little worse.

   However, Xu Tongdao only added two tables today.

  Actually, after the money he earned yesterday and bought these things today, there are still dozens of yuan left, so he can buy two more tables.

   Xu Tonglin also suggested that, but after thinking about it, Xu Tongdao decided to add only two more.

   In the past few years when he was a chef, he noticed a very strange phenomenon. There are many beautifully decorated shops on the street. Diners often don't enter the door. Those with dirty and messy facades have a very good business.

Also... the business of a late-night snack shop where he used to work was very good, but it can be said to be very good. During the peak season, the business volume can be tens of thousands of dollars a night, and the shop is very small, it is very common on the roadside. That kind of storefront.

The boss made a lot of money, so he wanted to make the store bigger. After several months of searching, the boss rented out a big hotel not far away that could not be operated. The rent was 200,000 yuan a year, and the four rooms were connected together. A large storefront, there are a few behind which are used as kitchens, washrooms, warehouses, and cold food rooms.

  Xu Tongdao went to the new store together as an old employee at the time, and his salary and various benefits were also increased, and his life was going well.

   But where's the boss?

   Within a few months, the boss regretted it.

   Because the store has expanded more than four or five times, the increase in passenger flow is not very obvious.

After a few more months, the boss is no longer as simple as regretting it. He has started to lose his hair, because after a few months of opening, the passenger flow has been decreasing. few.

   Then, a year later, the boss withdrew in time and did not renew the lease of the large store, but found a small store to continue operating.

   But it's still too late. After experiencing the bleak popularity of the big stores, if you make a small storefront, the diners will never be the same again.

   Xu Tongdao analyzed the reasons.

  Why did the business that had been very good after a small shop became a big one, so soon it became bleak?

   He analyzed many reasons, one of them: he thinks that after the store has grown larger, the visual experience for diners has changed.

   was originally a small store. A customer came in. In the eyes of passers-by who passed by the door, this store was very popular.

If there are two tables of guests dining in the shop, from the perspective of passers-by outside the door, it may be that the business in this shop is okay. If a few tables in the shop are full, then it feels like the business of this small shop. Very hot!

   But after switching to that big store, it feels completely different.

The store is too big, even if there are seven or eight tables of customers, it feels like the business in this store. If you meet a few of the tables who like to sit in the boxes, the whole hall will become more empty and empty. Popularity.

   A shop, once it gives too many people this impression, the business in this shop can still be done?

  Xu Tongdao only added two tables today because of this consideration.

   Too many tables are not conducive to popularity.

   After all, this is a new stall that has only been open for one night. Although the business last night was good, what if the business went down today?

   This is entirely possible!

   After all, the number of guests who had his barbecue last night was not many, and the word of mouth must have not spread. His stall has not yet accumulated enough regular customers.

   Under this premise, if you blindly add too many tables, you are likely to shoot yourself in the foot.

  ……

  Not long after, the two of them pushed the tricycle and came to the area where the stall was on the river bank.

   As a result, they saw that the place where they set up their stall last night was occupied by the bald stall that arrived first today.

   The most annoying thing is that the place where the bald head set up the stall last night is obviously empty at this time.

   "Grass! Trail, is this bald head bullying us? Does he think that our business was good last night because of the good feng shui of the land? So he took our place tonight?"

   Xu Tonglin flushed with anger.

   "Does this still need to be asked?"

   The smile on Tongdao Xu's face narrowed, and his face became cold.

   "Then what shall we do? Do you want to go over and grab it back?" Xu Tonglin suggested.

  Xu Tongdao looked at the grinning bald head coldly for a moment, retracted his gaze, and pushed the tricycle to continue walking.

   "No! Since he doesn't want to admit that his business is not good, it is a technical problem, let's help him prove it tonight!"

   Xu Tongdao said lightly, he had pushed the tricycle to the place where Bald was set up last night, so that their booth would be exactly between Bald and Fatty's two stalls.

   "Hehe, good! It's so enjoyable!"

   Xu Tonglin's eyes lit up, and his face regained a smile.

   When the two were working together to set up a stall, Xu Tongdao soon discovered another problem-the bricks under the oven that he deliberately went to the riverside last night to find ~ www.readwn.com ~ all disappeared tonight.

   He subconsciously raised his head and glanced at the bald head not far away.

   It is estimated that 80% of them were deliberately lost by the bald head.

   This bald head really seized every opportunity to bully them!

   is naive!

   Think that with this little trick, you can squeeze your competitors?

   Regarding this, Xu Tongdao smiled and did not go to question the bald head. First, he had no evidence, and second... They came here to set up a stall, not to beg for money.

   Moreover, he prepared a lot of ingredients tonight. If he had a fight with that bald head in the past, he would probably waste all these ingredients.

   Waiting for tomorrow, he will not have enough money to prepare so many ingredients.

   The coming days will be long, wait and see!

   Xu Tongdao squinted his eyes, said hello to Xu Tonglin, and then turned to the river to look for bricks.

   "Counsel!"

   Before leaving, Xu Tongdao heard the fat man sneered at the stall next to him, and spit out these two words disdainfully.

   Xu Tongdao heard the words, paused slightly, and looked back at the fat man coldly.

   Fatty didn't look at him, just a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

  ……

   When Xu Tongdao went to the riverside to find a dozen bricks and was about to light his oven, the three stalls on the left and right began to have guests.

   is exactly the same as last night, but he is still the only stall with no diners.

Xu Tonglin was a little nervous, came next to Xu Tongdao, and whispered: "Xiaodao, why are we still like this tonight? Or, you should hurry up and roast the eggplant! See if you can attract some guests like last night come over……"
