Chapter 1738: Chain Franchise

Shen Dapeng and Sun Dapao laughed after hearing this, picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

"Brother Peng, we don't know when we will see each other again after this separation tonight, so you must drink well tonight."

Li Zeyu walked up to Shen Dapeng with a bottle of white wine in his hand and poured him a small glass of wine while talking.

"Big Head, you look like you're going to get me drunk, right?" Shen Dapeng stared at the wine glass in front of him, frowning, "What if the flight tomorrow morning is delayed?"

Li Zeyu smiled and waved his hand, "It won't be delayed, just have a few drinks, tonight I just want you to drink well, I don't want you to get drunk, the most important thing is that Brother Pao drinks well."

Sun Dapao's alcohol tolerance is well known to everyone. Hearing this, he immediately showed a smug look on his face, took the bottle from Li Zeyu's hand, and poured himself a glass, "Big Head, why do you take out good wine when it's my turn to treat, you're trying to trick me, right?"

As soon as this was said, everyone couldn't help laughing, and then clinked their glasses and took a sip.

Shen Dapeng put down his glass and looked at Li Zeyu, pointing out the window, "Big Head, business is so good now, there are tables outside?"

Li Zeyu nodded, "It's summer now, and there are even more people eating hot pot. You saw it yesterday. The lobby on the first floor was crowded, and there was a long line of people waiting to eat."

"I saw that there was no other way, so I had to buy some tables and chairs and put them outside the door. In this way, the diners can eat hot pot in time. Besides, it's cooler to sit outside, isn't it?"

"I said, this is a good idea, it increases income and satisfies customers, Big Head, your brain is getting smarter now, how is the business of the other store?"

Li Zeyu laughed when he heard this, unable to hide his excitement, "Needless to say, it's full, Xiaoxiao has also hired a few waitresses these days, and it's a bit too busy."

"Thank you for your hard work, at the end of the year, I will give you more dividends." Shen Dapeng encouraged half-jokingly.

"That's great, Brother Peng. I have to thank you for this. If it weren't for your idea to establish Xiaohetang Catering Company, I, Li Zeyu, wouldn't be where I am today. Come, I'll toast you a glass!"

Li Zeyu raised his glass and looked at Shen Dapeng with gratitude.

"It looks like you have to get me drunk tonight, right?" Shen Dapeng said with a smile, but he still raised his glass and clinked it with Li Zeyu.

"Big Head, don't say thank you or not. If you are fine, everyone will be fine. The reason why Xiaohetang Hotpot has such a good business now is not only because of its unique recipe, but more importantly, it is because you manage it well. If you don't manage it well, no matter how good the food is, it will not attract repeat customers. So, I should be the one to say thank you."

Li Zeyu was stunned and waved his hand quickly, "Brother Peng, what are you talking about..."

Li Zeyu was about to explain, but was stopped by Shen Dapeng's hand, "Big Head, I have an idea. Xiaohetang's business is so good in Beijing, we can open another branch, so that the profit will be more substantial."

"Brother Peng, I have thought about this, but now there are some difficulties in various aspects of funds. We opened two stores in Beijing, but the house price was cheap at that time. Now it is different. The rent is rising day by day, and all the money we earn is contributed to the landlord. In the end, we don't get much."

Li Zeyu meant that although the business is good now, with the increase in rent, the cost is also getting bigger and bigger. If you want to open another store in Beijing, it is really difficult.

"It's okay, we can open a chain store!"

Shen Dapeng knocked on the table lightly.

"Chain store?"

Not only Li Zeyu widened his eyes, but even Tang Wei, Du Yuefeng, Zheng Dan and others looked at Shen Dapeng in confusion.

"That's right, if we open a chain store, we basically don't have to pay, as long as we provide technology."

Xiaoyu Technology Life Museum can be an agent, and Xiaohetang Hot Pot's business is so good,

Why can't it be made into a chain store in the form of a life museum?

Shen Dapeng remembered the top-secret recipe of Xiaohetang Hot Pot, which was the recipe passed down by Boss Tang's ancestors. Even if Shen Dapeng cooperated with Boss Tang, Boss Tang would give Boss Tang 20% ​​of the shares every year in the form of equity.

In this case, Shen Dapeng didn't know how this recipe was made.

One recipe can be worth one-fifth of the shares, so you can imagine the value of this recipe. In addition, from the customers' love for Xiaohetang Hot Pot, it can be seen that the taste of this recipe has definitely conquered the taste buds of most people.

On this basis, Li Zeyu suddenly had another idea and developed a Chinese medicine health hot pot, which attracted a large number of customers and made the business even more popular.

If we can rely on this formula to open more chain stores across the country, then the business will be even better, and the profit alone may be more than hundreds of millions per year, right?

"We have the recipe for hot pot ingredients, and now Xiaohetang Hot Pot is very famous in Beijing. With this, we can recruit agents to set up a chain. Not only can we collect some agency fees, but we don't have to pay for renting a house. The rest of the things will be handed over to those agents."

After Shen Dapeng said this, Li Zeyu nodded in sudden enlightenment.

"Brother Peng, now that you mention it, I remember that since our hot pot restaurant opened in Beijing, there have always been some customers asking me from time to time what the recipe of our base ingredients is, saying that they also want to open a hot pot restaurant."

Shen Dapeng heard this and said with satisfaction: "Yes, our business is good, and there are always some people who are tempted and want to open the same hot pot restaurant, so recruiting agents should not be a problem."

The more Li Zeyu thought about it, the more he felt that this way would work. He only provided the recipe, and others paid for renting a house to buy tables and chairs and other equipment, and he operated it himself. He didn't have to worry about anything at all, and he could still make a lot of money every year relying on the recipe.

And more importantly, I don't have to do it myself.

"Brother Peng, you are really a wake-up call. Tell me, how should we do it?"

Shen Dapeng smiled, "This is simple. Just advertise to recruit franchisees. However, in order to avoid competition, only two franchisees can be recruited in each city, and the distance should not be too close. It is best to be more than one kilometer apart."

"In addition, we will discuss the franchise fee in detail at that time, but the price must be unified and open and transparent. I think that in this way, although we will earn relatively less, we can go into battle with light equipment. In the long run, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."
