Chapter 20: People who buy secret recipes (second update)

Views:

Gexianglou is a famous chain noodle restaurant in Lin'an.

Its main store is in Suzhou, and now it has more than 30 branches in Lin'an. It is one of the best chain noodle restaurants in Suzhou.

Now its general manager Chen Zhisheng, head chef Guo Benqiang, and second chef Wu Tixin are sitting in the spacious office with serious faces.

In front of them was an open paper bag.

Inside the paper packet is a small amount of brown powder.

"How is it?" Chen Zhisheng asked the two of them.

"I can tell that there are more than ten kinds of spices such as star anise, bay leaf, fennel, pepper, cinnamon, etc., but there is no way to know the specific ones and the amount." Wu Chixin replied.

"We also conducted an operation rehearsal in the kitchen just now. We prepared a spice powder like this ourselves, but the effect was completely inferior to theirs." Guo Benqiang said with some admiration, "Their spice powder is a little stronger. When it comes to noodle soup, the effect of improving flavor and aroma is particularly obvious. Even ordinary raw materials can stimulate the aroma."

Chen Zhisheng felt a sense of disappointment, "Does that mean there's no way to copy it?"

"Well, if it is used by force, it is not as good as the spice oil we make ourselves." Uchixin said, "But if we use their spice powder, our noodles can at least double the taste. There is no noodle shop in the area that is better than ours!”

"General manager, since we can bribe someone inside and get some spice powder, can we ask this person to steal the secret recipe?" Guo Benqiang asked.

"I don't know the secret recipe. It is said that I found it online and pieced it together randomly. And the ones configured are the boss's daughter and the young man who invented the secret recipe. Others have no way to intervene, and they don't even know where they configured it." Chen Zhisheng said.

"Haha, you found it online?" Wu Tixin sneered, "This is what people who don't know the industry believe. Without thousands of failed attempts, how could it be possible to make such a good spice powder formula?"

"I know that too." Chen Zhisheng spread his hands, "But that old woman is just here to help and has no way of getting in touch with this area."

"Then there is only one way left!" Guo Benqiang sighed.

"What can we do?" Chen Zhisheng perked up.

"Pay a high price to buy this small noodle shop." Guo Benqiang said.

"Ah!?" Chen Zhisheng was stunned, "Is it necessary? What if they only sell noodle restaurants and not technology?"

"Then give it to them until they are willing to sell it." Guo Benqiang said sternly: "With this spice powder formula, there will be no problem for our Gexianglou to open throughout Zhejiang and Jiangdong provinces! By then, hundreds of chain stores will be open together. , make money together, and within a few months, the cost will be back!"

Chen Zhisheng hesitated.

If you buy it at a high price, at least it will be at a price of 5 million or 10 million.

Although Gexianglou is rich, it feels a bit distressing to give out such a large sum of money.

Wu Tixin looked at him and said: "I have a simpler way... That is to go to the young man who has the formula in person. You just said, isn't he a 16-year-old orphan? There are other people at home. If he has no money, if he is given 1 million, maybe he will sell the formula?"

"yes!"

Chen Zhisheng clapped his hands and said, "Hey, Lao Wu, you are really awesome, let's do it like this!"

Although Chen Zhisheng is the second son of the owner of Gexianglou, his eldest brother is in charge of the main store in Gusu. If he does not perform well, he can only go home and become a wealthy rice bug.

As someone who pursues career goals, Chen Zhisheng certainly doesn't want to do this.

If he spends hundreds of millions of dollars this time and still can't achieve the effect, he will be really doomed.

But if he only spent 1 million to buy the secret recipe, Chen Zhisheng would have the money himself.

Even if it doesn't work well after he buys it, he can bear the loss himself.

If he contributes a lot to the family restaurant business, then Chen Zhisheng is likely to be directly separated from the family and control the business in Lin'an. Wouldn't that be wonderful

Guo Benqiang also agreed very much when he saw this.

In the catering industry, it is not uncommon to steal other people's dishes and then transform them into your own.

It is definitely not uncommon to even rob something when you can't steal it.

Shen Huan has been free these days. Except for running and exercising in a nearby park before dinner every day, she stays at home the rest of the time. She started to pick up the science books for the first, second and third grade of high school and slowly started to review them.

The subjects in junior high school have a simple foundation, but the subjects in high school suddenly become several times more difficult.

If you are not careful, you will continue to fall behind.

So if you want to pick it up again, you still need to be careful and cautious.

If you don’t spend a lot of time, it will definitely not be done well.

But studying is impossible without a good body, so he insisted on running 5 kilometers every day. After a month of preparation, he slowly relaxed it to 7 kilometers, and finally used 10 kilometers as a standard.

These days, more and more people pay attention to exercise.

When Shen Huan runs, he meets many running friends.

And because of his unparalleled handsomeness, every time he finished running or stretching, a young lady in sportswear would hand him a bottle of pure water.

Every time Shen Huan said thank you, these young ladies would be very happy, which made Shen Huan really enjoy this kind of vanity.

It was the same tonight. He took the water from the two ladies in one go and was drinking it when a man in his thirties came over.

"Classmate Shen?" He greeted with a smile on his face.

Looking at the man in a shirt and trousers, holding a GUCCI bag, Shen Huan nodded calmly, "I am, who are you?"

The man handed him a business card and said, "I am Chen Zhisheng, the general manager of the Lin'an branch of Gusu Gexianglou Noodle House. Can I talk to you about something?"

Noodle House

Shen Huan smiled, "Okay, what do you want to say?"

"We Mingren don't talk secretly. I admire your talent very much." Chen Zhisheng said, "You see you spent so much effort to prepare such a wonderful formula, but it is only used in a small noodle shop. It's really... What a waste! I am willing to give you 500,000 yuan to buy this formula so that it can be tasted by more tasteful people."

"It's just a bowl of noodles. Mr. Chen, you said it was like a luxury product." Shen Huan said with a smile.

"For those of us who specialize in noodle shops, this is a luxury product!" Chen Zhisheng said firmly.

He wasn't lying. If he bought the recipe of spice powder, Chen Zhisheng dared to sell Yangchun noodles for 10 yuan a bowl, and the prices of the rest would be doubled!

This is a unique and delicious taste, how could it be sold so cheaply

"500,000 is really a lot." Shen Huan clicked his tongue and said, "But unfortunately, Mr. Chen, you have found the wrong person. The person who made this formula is actually a member of the Shui family. It's just that people spread rumors and spread rumors. I did it."

"Classmate Shen, you are too humble. I am very sincere." Chen Zhisheng said sincerely, "500,000 is not enough. What do you think of 800,000? Everything is negotiable!"

"Sorry, I really don't have the blessing to make this money!" Shen Huan stood up, waved to Chen Zhisheng regretfully, turned and left.

But the moment he turned his head, Shen Huan's smile faded.

Spice powder recipe

Um

There is a traitor in the noodle shop!
