The area planned for setting up stalls is not a long street like the ancient street, but an oval-shaped open space.
From some traces on the ground, it is not difficult to see that there used to be some self-built houses here, but now they have all been demolished. I wonder what they will be used for in the future
Right now, this will become the place where shop owners on the ancient street will set up stalls during the upcoming reconstruction of the ancient street.
Feng Yifan pushed his father-in-law and led his family into here, stood in a position roughly in the center, and looked around carefully.
The place for setting up stalls is indeed not small, but such a spacious venue, if there is no reasonable planning, may become very crowded with stalls set up in a disorderly manner, and may directly affect everyone's business.
Moreover, setting up a stall in such an open space also faces a very important problem: what to do if it rains or snows
All these are very important issues, so Feng Yifan raised them directly to the person who led them here.
"This place has no shelter and no roof. What should we do if it rains or snows? Also, this place has no reasonable planning. We don't have a designated place to set up our stalls. If we set up our stalls in a disorderly manner, it will make the place look very messy. Who will maintain this order?"
The staff from the renovation department looked at Feng Yifan with some surprise, obviously not expecting him to ask so many questions.
However, the staff of the reconstruction department have also made a series of arrangements here.
“Please rest assured that we have made sufficient arrangements. Later, engineers will come to build the awnings and plan the stalls. We need you to provide the required area, and then we will plan according to the area you provide.”
After listening to the words of the reconstruction department staff, everyone who came to the ancient street felt a lot more at ease.
Next, everyone gathered together around Feng Yifan and Su Jinrong, and were still willing to discuss things with Feng Yifan.
At this time, Su Liancheng and Mei Ru stood aside, watching a group of people discussing something around Feng Yifan. They both felt that Feng Yifan now had a high prestige in the ancient street.
When Feng Yifan was surrounded by a group of people, he dealt with them quite quickly.
After some discussion, we planned the locations for everyone to set up their stalls.
Among them, the food and snack stalls are mainly placed slightly outside, so that the heat and fumes during the cooking process will not affect other stalls.
There is also a location close to the center where tables and chairs are placed uniformly for use by all stalls.
In other words, the stalls here and the snack shops on the old street share the seats in the middle? This way, there will be no conflicts when everyone is using the sockets.
Feng Yifan's arrangements were recognized by most people on the old street, and everyone also determined the approximate location.
It can be said that everything has been arranged, and Feng Yifan then told the renovation department about everyone's ideas.
The staff of the reconstruction department were relieved. They felt that having a prestigious person like Feng Yifan around would save them some trouble in coordination.
However, Feng Yifan also put forward some other requirements to the other party: "We hope that you can arrange stalls outside while building the awning, so that everyone can save a lot of trouble, and also reserve suitable entrances and exits."
At the end, Feng Yifan even found some paper and a pen and drew a sketch on the spot.
The people from the renovation department? After looking at the sketch? They agreed quite readily.
After everything was discussed, everyone left and went back to prepare.
Su Liancheng and Mei Ru were bystanders throughout the process and did not even interrupt. Only after it was finalized did Mei Ru discuss it with the personnel from the renovation department.
After all, whether it is the reconstruction of the ancient street or the arrangement of the stalls here, Su Lanxin's company still needs to pay for it.
After it was roughly finalized, Mei Ru also agreed to transfer the money after returning.
Not long after the shop owners on the old street left, the engineers responsible for building awnings and stalls came in and quickly began preparing to build the necessary facilities.
I have to say that the workers in charge of the construction were also very efficient.
Feng Yifan and his friends returned to the old street, and the bosses also gathered at Su Ji to discuss some details with Feng Yifan.
"Yifan, if we move there, should we also tell our former customers in advance?"
"Yes, if there is no publicity, many people will not know that we have moved there. They may think that the old street is closed and will no longer come here."
"Yes, I'm worried about that too. What if the customers stop coming? We will still have no business even if we move there."
"That's right, if that's the case, it's no different than being closed for the past few months."
…
After listening to everyone's concerns, Feng Yifan immediately gave his own ideas.
"I know everyone is worried, so my idea is that after we have set up the stalls there, we can hold a promotional event as the beginning of our old street's rebirth to attract diners."
After hearing Feng Yifan's words, the bosses present fell into deep thought, wondering whether it was feasible.
The first person to agree with Feng Yifan's opinion was Wang Cuifeng.
"This is a good idea. Let's all work together to organize an event to attract the old street's previous customers, as well as some new customers. With some online publicity, our business will definitely be booming."
Fan Chaodong went on to say: "We can also arrange some promotional activities, which can also boost the business of our old street. In fact, the future of the old street still requires everyone's joint efforts. At this time, we should join hands and make the old street more famous."
Liu Wanhua also spoke up at this time: "That's right, let's let more people know about our old street. After the renovation is completed, we will move back and attract more people to the old street."
With the suggestions from Wang Cuifeng, Fan Chaodong and Liu Wanhua, everyone started to speak actively and put forward suggestions together.
When Feng Yifan saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel that this was how old neighbors should be.
Maybe everyone’s business is different, and maybe many of you here are not in the catering business, but everyone has been working on this ancient street for many years.
Now that this ancient street is facing a moment of change, it is time for everyone to band together for warmth.
If we all work together, I believe the changed old street will be even better.
Su Liancheng and Mei Ru were still bystanders, and they felt that Feng Yifan in front of them was really like a spiritual pillar and a support for everyone on the entire old street.
Even in Mei Ru's opinion, perhaps this man will become the company's support in the future.
After everyone had reached an agreement, they went back to prepare. After all, they were moving to a new location to do business, so each business had to make good preparations, and even if they were just setting up a stall, they had to showcase their own superior products.
After everyone left, Feng Yifan looked at Su Liancheng and Mei Ru, and asked with a smile: "What's the matter? Are you two planning to stay for lunch? But Su Ji doesn't provide free lunch. If you want to stay for lunch, you have to pay."
Mei Ru immediately smiled and said, "Chef Feng, are you worried that we can't afford the meal?"
Feng Yifan waved his hand: "No, after all, you two are big bosses now, you should still be able to afford the meal."
Su Liancheng then said, "Brother-in-law, if you want, you can move directly to Fujing Building. You don't have to set up a stall there like everyone else."
Feng Yifan shook his head and said, "Do you think I went there to set up a stall to continue Su Ji's business? To gather as many customers as possible from Su Ji?"
Mei Ru thought about it, understood what Feng Yifan meant, and said, "Chef Feng went to set up a stall to attract business for other shop owners on the street, right?"
Feng Yifan looked at Mei Ru and said with a smile: "As expected of a big boss, you can see my thoughts at a glance."
Mei Ru smiled and said, "It's not hard to see, right? If it weren't for the old neighbors on the street, Chef Feng, you would have many ways to keep Su Ji's business going. And with so many fans you have now, even if you take a break for a few months and then come back to open again, there will definitely be people coming to eat there."
Feng Yifan nodded: "Indeed, I am still confident in my cooking skills. After a few months of rest, I will be able to attract customers back quickly."
At this point, Feng Yifan paused for a moment and said, "But other shops on the old street may still need to continue operating during this period of time, and moving to a new location would be a fatal blow to them, and they might lose most of their current customers at once."
Mei Ru added: "But, they should figure out a solution themselves. After all, you are dealing in different things. You may not be able to boost the business of the stalls."
Feng Yifan smiled and responded: "But I will try my best."
Seeing the determined look on Feng Yifan's face, Mei Ru didn't say anything more.
Instead, Su Liancheng asked, "Brother-in-law, are you planning to run a food stall over there?"
Feng Yifan smiled and nodded: "Yes, I have been running a food stall there for a while. I want to increase its popularity and let everyone know that the shop on the old street has temporarily moved there."
Su Liancheng asked again: "What happens next?"
Feng Yifan looked at his family and said, "After that, when Ruoruo's kindergarten is on vacation, we'll go out and play together. We'll go back to visit my parents and relax."
When Feng Ruoruo heard her father say this, she immediately threw herself into his arms and said, "Dad, when I have a day off, are we going to my grandparents' house?"
Feng Yifan smiled and answered his daughter: "Yes, when Ruoruo is on vacation, we will go to grandpa and grandma's house to play together."
Feng Ruoruo immediately said with a smile: "That's great, I can go to my grandparents' house. Ruoruo has never been to my grandparents' house."
Then the little girl asked, "Dad, can we take Xixi and Feifei with us?"
Hearing his daughter ask this, Feng Yifan didn't know how to answer her for a moment.
As for Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei, after the holidays, both families may have some arrangements of their own. How would Feng Yifan know whether they would be willing to go to the countryside with Feng Ruoruo
After a pause, Feng Yifan said to his daughter, "Dad doesn't know either. Besides, the kindergarten is on holiday. Maybe Xixi and Feifei's families have made plans. We can't force them to go to their grandparents' house with us, right?"
After hearing what her father said, Feng Ruoruo suddenly became unhappy and pouted.
"No, Dad, I want to go to grandpa and grandma's house with Xixi and Feifei. The three of us are good friends and we can't be separated."
Everyone present couldn't help laughing at what my daughter said.
Feng Ruoruo looks really cute like this.
Even though she was making trouble with her father at the moment, what she said was really funny.
Feng Yifan saw that his daughter was about to make trouble, so he said to her, "How about this, when Xixi and Feifei come, we will ask Xixi and Feifei together, okay?"
Feng Ruoruo cheered almost instantly when she heard what her father said.
But Feng Yifan stopped him: "Don't be so quick to cheer, we need to get the consent of not only Xixi and Feifei, but also their grandparents, parents and parents."
Feng Ruoruo was stunned at first, then she said very confidently: "Xixi and Feifei's grandparents, parents will definitely agree, then we can go to their grandparents' house to play together."
Seeing his daughter's confidence, Feng Yifan didn't want to discourage her and could only nod.
Then, Feng Yifan thought of something, raised his head and said to Su Liancheng and Mei Ru, who were watching the interaction between the father and daughter with an auntie smile, "I need your help with a few things. This is a deal for me, as a consultant, to help you with ideas for the kitchen of Fujing Building."
Su Liancheng immediately said, "No need, brother-in-law, if you need any help, just tell us and we will do our best to help you."
Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Two things actually. First, I hope that Fujinglou can allow our dishwasher Sister Zhao to go to work temporarily. I can pay her salary, but I just need to give her a job. After Su Ji resumes business, we will need her back."
After hearing what Feng Yifan said, Su Liancheng immediately agreed: "This is easy, I can arrange it. The salary will be based on the salary of Fujinglou, and you don't have to pay for your brother-in-law. We can afford to pay for more workers."
Feng Yifan still insisted: "No, no, let's put it this way. I recommended her to go there, so we will still pay her salary."
Su Ruoxi also said: "Yes, we will pay for Sister Zhao's salary because she will have to return to Su's later."
Seeing that Feng Yifan and Su Ruoxi both insisted, Su Liancheng had no choice but to nod: "Okay, we agree."
Feng Yifan then said, "The second thing is, since you are the contractor for the reconstruction of the old street, I hope you can take care of the merchants on the old street and try your best to help them alleviate some of the problems they encounter in setting up stalls."
When Mei Ru heard this, she looked at Feng Yifan and asked, "Do you mean that we should be responsible for the management of the stall?"
Feng Yifan nodded: "Yes, I know you are definitely more professional, so I hope you can take care of the stall and ensure that it can continue to operate normally."
Su Liancheng and Mei Ru looked at each other, and finally Su Liancheng nodded and agreed: "Okay, we will arrange it."
After the discussion, Feng Yifan smiled and stepped forward, extending his hand to the two of them: "Well, I wish us a pleasant cooperation in the future."
Su Liancheng and Mei Ru also stretched out their hands. Their handshake with Feng Yifan indicated that the grudges of the previous generation had come to an end, and their generation would start a new cooperation.
