In the end, three second-floor shops not far from the commercial street were selected. Mo's parents and Mo's mother are still very fair. The house in Donghu Mansion and this shop have room for appreciation, so they wrote the house in Mo Shaoqing's name. Next, the store was written under Mo Shaohong's name, and all the rent earned in the past few years was used to subsidize the family, and the two brothers had no objection.
Mo's father had promised him before that he could open the restaurant after his junior year, but as his junior year approached, there were signs of repentance, so basically every holiday, Mo Shaoqing worked in various restaurants, he thought Let his parents see his determination and hard work, Mo's father and mother were very distressed, and finally agreed.
In order to support his younger brother's business, Mo Shaohong gave the storefront to Mo Shaoqing to open a restaurant. Mo Shaoqing did not refuse. It would be hypocritical for the family to refuse, but he also knew that the annual rent of 70,000 to 80,000 yuan was one of the sources of income for the family. One, so it is agreed in advance that it is only a rent, and the rent will be paid, but it will not be until after the profit.
Seeing that the whole family supported him so much, Mo Shaoqing was moved and at the same time secretly vowed that he must make some achievements.
Therefore, the main issue of this winter vacation is the issue of store decoration and opening. After arriving home, Mo Shaoqing put down his luggage, washed up briefly, and went to the nearest bank after eating something.
In the past few years, because the family knew that he was working part-time after school, they only paid 500 yuan a month for living expenses to ensure basic living. He deposits the money he saves every month in a bank card.
"One, ten, one hundred, one thousand... ten thousand, my God!" Mo Shaoqing covered the exclamation that was about to spit out, and he actually had about 50,000 yuan in his card, which was completely earned by himself. !
Mo Shaoqing took out some of the money and put it away carefully, intending to see the decoration of the shop.
With the full popularity of smart phones, various apps have been continuously developed, among which Weibo, WeChat, Tieba, etc. are the best.
A part of people whose career is posting Weibo publicity began to develop, and they are called internet celebrities. Internet celebrity is the abbreviation of "Internet celebrity", which refers to a person who has become popular because of a certain event or a certain behavior in real or online life because of a certain event or a certain behavior.
Shops that are known on the Internet are called "net celebrity shops". In recent years, there are various Internet celebrity shops in S City, and Mo Shaoqing has been to many. Although he didn't plan to develop the restaurant into an online celebrity shop, it has to be said that such a publicity method is beneficial to the restaurant.
Mo Shaoqing's shop is located in an alley, to be precise, a small street running from east to west. The reason for buying this place is also very simple. There are no restaurants here, so there is no competition, and it is not too far from the commercial center.
Behind the store is a high-end residential area, so the place is clean. There is a university town in the farther suburbs, mainly local universities in City Y and university campuses in City S. The traffic flow must be good, but parking is a bit difficult, and there are a few good businesses nearby Small shops, mainly clothing stores, convenience stores, jewelry stores, beauty salons, flower shops and snack workshops, can be regarded as a small pedestrian street.
Mo Shaoqing attaches great importance to the decoration of the store, but does anyone know that those online celebrity stores rely on the elegant environment and petty bourgeois sentiment to attract customers
Mo Shaoqing knows that the food produced in the space will definitely attract everyone's attention, but the food is not enough, the store is clean and beautiful. In the early stage of the restaurant, there must be insufficient staff, but for the kitchen, it is uneasy to use others for the purchase of food, so it can only be my own family, and it will be a few years before the parents retire, so Mo Shaoqing put the target on the aunt .
My uncle has passed away for many years, and my hometown depends entirely on my aunt Wang Lifang. She is a strong person, and she has raised her son to grow up. She still has land to take care of, and owes some foreign debts, but she doesn't want father Mo's help, so the Mo family can only give more to the elders. Alimony and other things can't help her.
There is nothing to say about Wang Lifang's craftsmanship, but Mo Shaoqing is still a little worried. He is worried that the food will not suit the tastes of white-collar workers in the city, so he has to hire another chef who can afford the scene.
The three shops are about 100 square meters, and the second floor is a little smaller, because the ceiling of the kitchen is relatively high, and the snack workshop next door only occupies the first floor, so the Mo family bought the second floor, so there is more The easternmost terrace, according to Mo Shaoqing's idea, can be designed as a place for people to drink tea and chat.
As for the style design, compared to the Nordic style and X's cold style, Mo Shaoqing is more inclined to decorate around the retro and simple European style. He walked into the store, the walls were covered with light-colored wallpapers, the sun was shining outside, and the floor-to-ceiling glass shone in, making the whole space much warmer.
Considering the hot summer, I finally chose the three-dimensional embroidered flower branch creamy white screen, lined with light green sunshade curtains, except for the floor tiles covered with brown mosaic patterns, the tables and chairs by the window are neatly visited, and other dark wood tables The chairs are arranged randomly.
The second floor is a jumping-floor design. There is a small patio in the middle of the first floor. You can see the carved iron railings on the second floor. There are flowerpots hanging on the railings, and some flowers are hanging...
"How? But I'm satisfied that I didn't say anything when I came, so I can pick you up." Mo Shaoqing turned around and saw his elder brother standing on the stairs with a gentle smile on his face.
"Satisfied, satisfied, brother, it's really beautiful, I really trouble you, thank you."
"Thank you, family. Sit down." The two found a clean chair and started discussing the restaurant.
"Have you thought of a name, so I can get someone to make a billboard!" Mo Shaohong asked while pouring water for his brother.
Taking the water glass from his brother, Mo Shaoqing replied: "It's called 'Mo's private kitchen dream', or 'Mo dream' for short!"
"Oh? How did you choose this name?"
Mo Shaoqing thought for a while and replied: "Mo is our family's surname. This restaurant has a share for all our Mo family members. At the same time, dream also represents the first step of my dream! But this dream can be made a little smaller. .” Mo Shaoqing gestured.
"Haha, when you said you were going to open a restaurant, you thought you were joking, and you might give up after a few years. I didn't expect you to have a good plan all along. Come, come, I will once again toast Boss Mo with tea instead of wine." Mo Shaohong joked.
Mo Shaoqing clinked a glass with his eldest brother and drank it seriously, which made Mo Shaohong feel that his brother had grown up!
"You are back, Shaoqing." Hearing the familiar voice behind him, Mo Shaoqing looked back. It turned out to be his cousin Modi. Modi was a month older than Mo Shaoqing, so the two of them were not called brothers. call by name.
Don't look at Modi, his name is very elegant. In fact, he looks very dark, because he often does farm work, and later he graduated from high school and joined the army, which made him even darker. Although he is dark, he looks very energetic and upright. After retiring from the army After returning to his hometown, he still couldn't find a suitable job, and the two hadn't seen each other for several years. Thinking that Mo Shaoqing was short of manpower in the shop, the mother and son hired together.
"Auntie, why don't you see her?"
"My mother went to the countryside to get some fresh vegetables. Don't you people in the city like this! We just opened our business, but we need to get a good reputation."
Mo Shaoqing's heart warmed when he heard this. Although he had space in his hands, his aunt didn't know it. It could be seen that she was thinking of herself.
"Oh, by the way, the menu my mother asked me to give you is all her specialty dishes." Modi hurriedly took out a list from his pocket and handed it to Mo Shaoqing, who didn't even look at it. Straight into the pocket.
On the other hand, Mo Shaohong was very emotional: "The three of us haven't seen each other for a long time, this year we can celebrate the New Year together, and we will have a good gathering tomorrow night, Shaoqing gave us the special dishes that he has learned in the past few years Give it a try!"
"Okay," Mo Shaoqing readily agreed, "but I have to take a closer look at what I need to buy in the store, so you go back first. By the way, brother, you can lend me your car, I'll go to the furniture market .”
"Okay. Go early and come back early!" After finishing speaking, a bunch of keys landed in Mo Shaoqing's hand with a silver arc in the air.
After seeing off the two elder brothers, Mo Shaoqing went upstairs to look again, and took out a pen and paper to record the missing things: pots, pans and pans must be bought first, seasonings can be bought later, and tableware, although it is near In the past few years, everyone has been accustomed to using sterilized tableware, but later it was reported that the sterilized tableware was not clean. The first thing many people do when eating is to rinse chopsticks, cups and bowls. They simply abandon this and buy some exquisite tableware.
I also need to buy some decorations such as candlesticks, oil paintings, mirrors... By the way, I also need to buy a classical European piano. The boxes on the second floor are almost fully equipped. Four or five folding wooden tables can be placed on the terrace, and a few flower stands, plants, and parasols are also available.
By the way, there is still a need to find manpower. Modi, I and my aunt are definitely not enough. I need to get a better-looking sign and put it at the door, as well as the floor-to-ceiling windows at the door. There is too much space. It would be great if I could plant a circle of flowers.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that there are still many things that have not been purchased! It seems that doing nothing is as simple as imagined. Mo Shaoqing didn't have time to sigh, so he hurriedly drove to the furniture market. He originally wanted to shop online, but out of quality assurance, he chose a special kitchen supplies store to pick. I went home happily, but the money I took out was spent at most.
After returning to the room, Mo Shaoqing first took out the form just listed, crossed out the ones already purchased, filled in some to be bought, and then took out the menu written by his aunt from his jacket pocket, read it carefully, and deleted .
Mo Shaoqing's positioning of the restaurant is mid-to-high-end, and the prices of the dishes also range from high to low, and the average family should be able to afford it. I added some western dishes and desserts that I am good at, separated the recipes according to Chinese food, Western food and drinks and desserts, marked the price according to large, medium and small portions, and customized some set menus, which can be used by customers who pay for the app.
