The Era of Hard Work

   Chapter 68 Business Secrets

Even Lu Dong was surprised. When the people he recruited lined up, he was able to attract people so quickly, and even the people in the back line never stopped, even though he became more and more proficient at braised pork roasting, and his hand speed became faster and faster. Quick, the team has always maintained a scale of more than 20 people.

  Qiao Weiguo maintains order from time to time, and most of them are college students, so they are in good order.

  Two dollars, one dollar and five, the little things add up, and the iron box welded to the edge of the workbench is gradually filling up.

   Correspondingly, 200 biscuits are getting fewer and fewer.

   Lao Zhao has already closed the stall and is ready to leave, and there is still a queue on Lu Dong's side.

   On the other side of the construction site, all the people in line came back, and Lu Kun began to divide the folding fans, one for each person, and most of the people were happy.

  I usually don’t have much to do, but today it’s just fun, I have a fan to take and something to eat.

   A young man said, "Is there a famous Dong-ge in Buyi who sells things?"

   Another person answered: "Yes, that's right! I'm one level shorter than him. I saw him fighting at the school gate in the second year of junior high school. One person pushed three gangsters to fight."

   The man in front shook his head: "Brother Dong can't think about it too much, what a stall! He is willing to come forward and lead us people to mix, Qingzhao will sooner or later let's go to the world!"

  Lu Kun picked up the folding fan and smashed his head: "Don't talk nonsense, can this become your world?"

   These people, thinking is too simple, let the world make a joke! Lu Kun has seen that the disciplined forces are strong, so that can't be stopped by turkeys and dogs?

   There are still rumors among the people in the county town that the troops stationed in the port city were wiped out by the gangs. This is not as big a joke as the Pacific Ocean?

   This kind of thing is also believed by some people. It's really a pit in the head of everyone who looks at the young and the bewildered.

   Another person said: "Don't say anything else, the meat patties made by Brother Dong are really delicious."

"right!"

"right!"

"good to eat."

   There are many people who agree.

   The person at the front said: "Brother Dong, does this have a secret recipe?"

   "Didn't you see it? A hundred years of inheritance, the absolute secret recipe! This is the same as the unique skills of the major sects!"

In the afternoon, someone from the construction site took over. After Lu Kun sent out his fan, he clapped his hands, and said, "We will be here today, and if I still want to come tomorrow, we will continue to gather here. Brother Dong is a generous person. The braised pork biscuits will continue to be eaten for free, and the food will still be delivered. ."

   "Okay! It's okay anyway."

  The crowd gradually dispersed. Lu Kun was not in a hurry. He went out and saw that there were people lining up across the intersection, so he simply went to the construction site to find Li Lin.

   Lu Dong's side was busy from 11:30 until nearly 1:30, when the queue dissipated, and there were several people waiting to buy.

   By 1:40, the two large pots of braised pork and braised eggs had bottomed out, and only seven or eight of the 200 sesame cakes were left.

   Chopping meat with a knife is more tiring than collecting money. Lu Dong took off the disposable hat soaked in sweat, threw it into the trash can, and kept rubbing his right wrist with his left hand.

   Doing the same movement too often in a short period of time will cause your wrists not to be sore but painful.

   Lu Dong has experience, this is just the beginning, after ten days and a half months, it will be good to get used to it.

   "Are you okay?" Qiao Weiguo asked.

   Lu Dong shook his hands: "It's okay."

   Feeling better, he cleaned the car first to keep it tidy, then opened the money box to make some money.

   There are three kinds of braised pork biscuits. Only a few of them are sold with eggs. The most sold is 1 piece with 5 pieces of meat, and some local tyrants have to add an egg.

   After removing the original change, it sold for a total of 325 yuan.

   Part of it was the money that Lu Dong gave to Lu Kun, and the cost was more than 100 yuan after subtracting the price of a single folding fan.

  More important than making money, his stall has attracted attention.

  Lu Dong is confident that there should be repeat customers.

   As far as special snacks are concerned, this noon is completely popular.

   Lu Dong sat under the sun umbrella to drink water, and quickly summarized the situation at noon.

  The herd effect brought about by queuing is very obvious.

  The price is within the affordable range of quite a few students.

   College town has a limited selection of flavors.

   It is somewhat useful to put up advertising posters.

   And the taste is not bad.

   Anyway, this first attempt to artificially create momentum was a success.

  There is a lack of business in the university town and limited off-campus food. As long as it lasts for a period of time, the reputation of this stall will come out.

   "Hey, buddy." The tape seller came over and said, "I see, the few of us who set up stalls count your business as good. What's the secret?"

   Of course Lu Dong wouldn't tell the truth, but he actually told the truth: "Should...the things I sell are genuine."

   The tape seller didn't believe it, and said, "We all do business together, share and share our experience."

   Lu Dong did not answer him, but instead asked, "Your surname?"

   The tape seller smiled: "Mengui's surname is Jiao, Jiao Shougui."

   Lu Dong said, "Lu Dong." He asked, "Is your accent so green?"

"It's from Jiaojiazhuang in the north." Jiao Shougui said simply: "I used to go to the market to sell tapes. I heard people say that the university town is opening. I thought that young people like pop songs, so I came here to try it. I didn't expect it to be true. On the best day, it was sold for more than a thousand yuan, and I was going to catch a month's fair."

   These words were not without bragging rights, and Lu Dong didn't care, and said, "Brother, you have fortune, maybe you brought it, and my business is good."

   Everyone is willing to listen to good things, Jiao Shougui smiled happily, and stopped asking Lu Dong about the secret.

   Lu Dong took a break and needed to go back. The braised pork was gone, and the sesame cakes were gone. After school in the afternoon, the flow of people was larger than at noon.

After explaining a few words to Qiao Weiguo, Lu Dong rode the car back to the village and saw Lu Kun talking at the entrance of the construction site. Then he went to Lao Li's fire shop and asked him to deliver 250 sesame cakes in the afternoon, which could be sold from 5:30 to 8:00. Half.

   Then back to the orchard, Hu Chunlan brought a large pot of cold water and put the freshly boiled eggs in it, ready to peel.

   asked Lu Dong a few words, and Lu Dong roughly explained the situation.

   "As long as you can sell it." Hu Chunlan sighed with relief.

  Lu Dong went to the refrigerator to get the braised pork and asked, "Mom, when will the apples be sold?"

  Hu Chunlan said: "It's the last year, we don't do all those troubles, we sell them all to the cannery. It's cheaper, but it saves time and effort. I'm also free to help you."

   She picked up an egg to test the temperature: "I can see it clearly, the money earned by the orchard is too far from your business."

   Lu Dong said: "Alright, we'll do something else in the future."

   In terms of the social situation, it is too difficult to make money from the ground, and public food alone is a headache.

   One year, Guoguang apples could only be sold for a dime. How many of the orchards could not even collect public grain?

   Not long after the meeting, Lv Dong dragged the car back to the university town. Just after five o'clock, Lao Li brought the sesame seeds over.

The    may be a joint effect in the morning. Before six o'clock, some students came to buy Lu Dong's braised pork biscuits. After the underground workers came to line up one after another, the intersection began to line up again.

   At night, the flow of people is larger. The longer the queue is, the more attractive it is. Many people would rather spend ten minutes queuing.

  There have been numerous cases that have fully proved that this is a good way to attract traffic in a short period of time.

   But to maintain a good level of business, these alone are not enough, the role of food itself is more important.

   Braised pork fire is far from being a delicacy in the world, but it can be used as a recipe for university cafeterias.

   There were more people coming out of the school in the afternoon. The queue started to form before six o'clock, and it didn't shorten much after seven o'clock.

  The longer the queue, the longer the waiting time, but the more people in the queue.

   For most people, getting the braised pork biscuits and taking a bite, they feel that the taste is okay, and it is worth waiting in line.

   Of course, things that don't taste good are inevitable.

   But overall good.

  Lu Dong has also carefully observed that the people who come to buy at night are not only students, but also older people who should be faculty members, and there are also people on the construction site.

   No more people at 8:30, there are about ten sesame cakes left.

   This business is up.

In the next few days, thanks to the queuing, Lv Dong's braised pork biscuits business was relatively stable. According to Qiao Weiguo's observation, during the busy stage of lunch, there were always more than 20 people queuing up, and dinner was the most crowded time. , the people in line were over fifty at one point.

   Even the pure passers-by who passed by this intersection, saw the long queue, and joined in curiously.

   After asking people to line up for five days in a row, Lu Dong called to stop temporarily, wanting to see how it worked.

   The queue did not decrease at noon, and it was still full at night!

  Many people buy more than one.

   After queuing for many days, many students noticed that when they were tired of the cafeteria food and wanted to change their taste, the first choice was Lu Dong.

  Because there is no better choice than the small kitchen in the cafeteria.

   After all, there are too few competitors in the university town, and the food in the university cafeteria is not so rich these days.

On the first day that    stopped hiring people to line up, Lu Dong still sold more than 400 copies.

   The time period for the daily necessities booth is more concentrated, two hours from 11:30 to 1:30, and three hours from 5:30 to 8:30 at night.

  Excluding these time periods, there is basically no one.

   Lu Dong earned more than 700 yuan for a day selling braised pork.

   During the hot period in the past, it will definitely decline, but with the help of the general environment, daily sales will not be too low in the short term.

  After 2010, the best time of the day, the braised pork biscuits have been sold for more than 400 yuan.

   The price was much higher then.

   The braised pork biscuits business is also on the right track, and the daily necessities are basically stable at six or seven hundred yuan.

  Lu Dong's average daily flow has returned to more than 1000.

   The huge profits of the school season cannot happen every day.
