Ding Ning glared at Luoxue helplessly, he didn't want to be watched by others.

Luoxue stuck out her tongue mischievously and bowed slightly to the guests: "Then please wait a little longer." ”

"Sister Luoxue, your master is here today, can you introduce me to me?"

Li Enxi and Sophia saw that Ding Ning was going to help in the kitchen, and they couldn't stay in the box, so they followed to the back hall to join in the fun.

"Oh, that's it!"

Luo Xue smiled and pouted to Ding Ning, who was showing off his sword skills.

"What? Your brother is your master?"

Sophia asked, stunned, her eyes wide in disbelief.

"Of course, I learned all my craft from my brother. ”

Falling Snow said proudly and proudly.

"This ...... How is this possible? I ate your brother's cooking yesterday, and although it was delicious, it couldn't keep up with your craftsmanship!"

Sophia looked at Ding Ning in amazement, her mind was a mess, she only knew that Ding Ning's cooking skills were very good, but she didn't expect that he was Luoxue's master.

Luo Xue wrinkled her little nose and said dissatisfiedly: "My brother's craftsmanship is the best, much better than me, you think his craftsmanship is not as good as mine, it can only mean that he didn't do it with his heart, or it was a problem with the ingredients." ”

Sophia's eyes flashed with a sudden look, yes, Ding Ning made very authentic home-cooked food last night, but because she is used to cooking dark dishes that combine Chinese and Western cuisine, many seasonings and ingredients are not conventional ingredients, and it is understandable that the food made by Ding Ning is not as good as snow.

In fact, Sophia guessed well, Ding Ning in Mansion No. 9 is that the ingredients are not fresh enough, and the seasonings are all unconventional seasonings, so even he is not very satisfied with the food he makes.

Asked a recruited waiter to take Li Enxi to visit the set full of all kinds of fantasy style, Ding Ning pulled Luoxue to the storage room and gave her a storage ring, which contained four pigs that had been slaughtered and cleaned, which made Luoxue surprised and delighted, and looked at the pigs and beasts' eyes were green.

"Brother, what breed of pig is this, why is it so big?"

Although the pig beast had been slaughtered and divided, Luo Xue could still tell from the four huge pig heads that this pig beast was by no means an ordinary pig.

"It's a low-level demon beast, it's called the Pig Beast, and I got it by chance. ”

Ding Ning naturally trusted Luoxue, but the affairs of the Sunset Continent were too mysterious, and he couldn't explain it, so he could only say something vaguely.

"Demon beast, but, wouldn't it be a pity if such a good pork was sold out, and besides, if it can't be supplied for a long time, it will affect the business of the castle in the sky. ”

I have to say that Luoxue, who has a dream, is now not only a chef, but also a long-term operator.

"Don't worry, I didn't get one or two, it was farmed on a large scale, and the long-term supply is absolutely fine!"

Ding Ning smiled with relief and rubbed Luo Xue's little head.

"That's great, with such superb ingredients, we can definitely become the leader in the restaurant industry. ”

Luo Xue waved her little pink fist and said with high morale.

Looking at the flash of ambition in her eyes, Ding Ning couldn't help but feel in a trance, is this still the vampire girl who once curled up in a filthy underground cave and struggled to stay alive?

He was proud and proud that he had changed the girl's fate because of his appearance, and it made him feel a sense of accomplishment to be able to let her live in the sun and do what she loved to do.

"Brother, our business is good now, I roughly calculated two days ago, and in less than a month, we have recovered all the costs, and we have made a slight profit. ”

Falling snow happily reported.

"Oh!"

Ding Ning responded casually, and then he was shocked, and said in surprise: "What did you say?

Ding Ning couldn't help but be surprised, you must know that in order to let Luoxue do what she liked, he invested more than 5 million yuan to build this pavilion in the sky, plus some infrastructure investment in the later stage, it added up to about 6 million, and the cost was recovered in less than a month?

"Yes, I roughly calculated, from the opening to the present, the total operating income is about more than nine million, excluding workers' wages and procurement of ingredients and other messy expenses, the net profit is about seven million. ”

Luo Xue said as a matter of course, which made Ding Ning's mouth open wide in shock.

Not to mention millions, even tens of millions of dollars are not in his eyes now, but this is just a restaurant he made for Luoxue to pass the time, purely in the nature of playing tickets, I didn't expect that it would be able to recover the cost in a month and have a slight surplus.

A few million a month can only be pocket money for Ding Ning, but for a restaurant that can only be said to be medium-sized, it is definitely a successful profit model in the same industry.

Don't forget, the Sky Pavilion has only been open for less than a month, and what if it has been open for a full month? It is not impossible for the net profit to reach 10 million.

And so on, what about the year? How much can you earn? Presumably, it is not a problem to earn enough 100 million, right?

A restaurant with less than 100 seats, or on the top floor where it is inconvenient to enter and exit, can have such a profit, which is definitely a money-absorbing weapon.

Don't look at Ding Ning's tens of billions at every turn, but it's all floating food, one is not good, and it is possible to have no income for a few years.

But the industry that he never cared about made him realize that he underestimated the huge profits of the catering industry.

"Tell my brother, how can you make so much money?"

Ding Ning asked for advice very humbly.

"In fact, catering is just a word-of-mouth effect that gathers popularity. ”

Luoxue was recognized by Ding Ning, not to mention how happy she was, and said excitedly: "In order to open the market, in fact, the food in our restaurant is taken the cheap route, except for some special ingredients, the food made of general ingredients, the working class can afford to eat once a day, and the profit of the food is only about thirty percent." ”

"Thirty percent? That's not high. ”

Ding Ning was stunned, thirty percent is really not much, the cost of one hundred yuan can earn thirty yuan, which is really a conscience price for the catering industry that can basically reach forty or even fifty percent of the profit.

"We are taking the road of small profits and quick turnover, coupled with the craftsmanship is not bad, which has attracted a lot of customers. ”

Luoxue cleaned up the ingredients neatly, and said excitedly: "Fame is there, the customer base is there, the white-collar workers in the office buildings near here are not eating in our restaurant, and there are thousands of takeaways at noon every day, and these takeaways are all with door-to-door errand fees, although it is not high, only a few dollars each time, but the accumulation is enough to pay the wages of workers." ”

Ding Ning nodded suddenly, there is an additional service fee for delivering takeaways, and no one looks at a few yuan, but gathering a small amount of money is also a lot of income.

For example, a takeaway is charged a service fee of five yuan, and 1,000 takeaways a day is an income of 5,000 yuan, which is 150,000 yuan a month.

In Ninghai, the salary of a restaurant waiter who has no technical content and relies on hard work to make money is only three or four thousand yuan a month, and even if the price offered by the pavilion in the air is a little higher, it is only five thousand yuan a month at most, which is enough to pay the salary of thirty waiters.

"The most profitable ones are the Baihua tea and spirit wine that my brother taught me. ”

Luo Xue proudly told the truth: "The environment of our restaurant is the top in the whole Ninghai, so a lot of business negotiations and leisure and entertainment like to be carried out in our restaurant, two thousand yuan a pound of Lingguo wine, two hundred yuan a pot of Linghua tea, these are essential consumer goods for these big customers." ”

Ding Ning can understand that Linghua tea and Lingguo wine have the miraculous effect of dispelling illness and strengthening the body and prolonging life, coupled with the excellent taste, it would be strange if it was not easy to sell.

"Also, some of the specialties that are served regularly are the biggest money-absorbing weapons, such as the floating drunken dream that my brother did last time, after my research, the procedure was simplified, and it was launched as a seafood feast, I named it Deep Blue Dream, each of which can be sold at a high price of more than 8,000 yuan, which is in short supply, and has become a must-order dish for guests who book a box. ”

Luo Xue happily showed off: "In fact, all the seafood ingredients used are ordinary, and only some deep-sea ingredients provided by my brother last time are mixed with them, which makes these rich guests flock to it." ”

Ding Ning couldn't cry or laugh, and knocked on Luoxue's little head: "How do I feel that you have become a profiteer." ”

"People are not profiteers, and only my brother doesn't take these deep-sea ingredients as a thing, you must know that human beings can use deep submersibles to explore the depth of up to 10,000 meters under the seabed, but that's just exploration, the next two hundred meters above the sea level is basically a forbidden area for human fishing, and the deep-sea seafood that my brother brought back are all creatures two thousand meters below the sea level, it can be said that basically our restaurant is the only one in the world, and each one sells for 8,808 yuan, can it be considered expensive?"

Luoxue wrinkled her cute little nose and pouted, it seems that she has done her homework before, and those deep-sea creatures that once made her afraid and even sick to her stomach are simply strange in her eyes at this moment.

Ding Ning showed a sudden look, he really didn't think about it so much, after all, the water pressure at the bottom of the sea is terrifying, he just takes advantage of the unique convenience of having the Tianshui totem by his side to enter the deep sea easily, otherwise, even if he is a martial arts master who cultivates water attribute exercises, he can dive to the bottom of the sea for about a thousand meters at most, which is quite remarkable.

Having said that, how could a martial arts master who can dive a thousand meters under the sea put those seafood in his eyes, even if he has the intention of trying it, he believes that he will not dare to taste those unknown underwater creatures easily, after all, no one dares to say whether those things will be poisonous or not.

Only if he is proficient in medicine and cooking, will he be able to identify which underwater creatures are poisonous and which are not, and treat them as delicious ingredients.

In this way, adding some deep-sea ingredients to each seafood meal and selling it for more than 8,000 yuan a piece is really not expensive, after all, rare things are expensive, and presumably those rich people will not care about these three melons and two dates.

"Well, when I have the chance, my brother will go to the deep sea and get you some good ingredients back. ”

Ding Ning patted his chest and assured that in order to create a teleportation array, he had consumed all the red corals and used up the spirit crystals, and he was thinking about taking time to go to the underwater world in the past two days to get some back.

Last time, he coveted those giant electric eels, but at that time, he could only shy away due to the terrifying power of those electric eels, but now it is different, he has the ability of thunder and lightning, and those giant electric eels can no longer pose a threat to him, and will soon become a delicacy on his plate.
