Chapter 363: Chinese Cuisine

"Knock knock, knock knock......"

"What are those Huaxia people doing?" Berauwen looked at the noisy scene of gongs and drums in the distance in amazement.

"Another family portrait of theirs has opened." Bobbs, a co-worker next to him, smiled, "This time it's close to us, so it'll be convenient for us to eat in the future." ”

"Family portraits? A Chinese restaurant? Isn't it nice to have a Chinese building? Berauwen tilted his head and thought of the Chinese dinner he and his wife went to eat, it tasted very good, but it was a little lighter.

"You don't know yet? After I get off work at noon today, I'll take you to try it! Bobs smacked his mouth.

"But you know, we had a short lunch break, only an hour. Where do we have time to sit down and fight those two damn Chinese sticks? Berauwen frowned.

"Don't worry! There's fast food. Not much longer than how long you eat Huaqing noodles. Bobbs looked at the bulging bag that Berauwen hung on the wall. There are two packets of Huaqing instant noodles stuffed there, and recently the Berauwen meal is accompanied by Sichuan mustard to eat this cheap and convenient Huaqing noodles. The lunch time is too short, and you can smoke two more cigarettes in your free time after eating Huaqing noodles.

Winter in Lyon was also short-lived, and soon Bobbs led Beraudin to the family portrait.

From afar, Berauwen saw a big F on the side of the signboard, and the three Chinese characters on the signboard seemed to be their store name.

At the door under the signboard, two cartoon dolls of a man and a woman are particularly conspicuous on the side of the gate, becoming toys for children's games.

"So many people?" When Berauwen looked inside, it was already overcrowded.

"On the first day of business, they will run all kinds of promotions, which is very affordable. People around are coming, just greedy for the cheap here. Bobbs laughed, which was one of the reasons he dragged Berauwen over early. When the family portrait is on sale, it's too affordable. For very little money, you can enjoy a variety of cuisines.

The inside of the hall is not as antique as the Zhonghua Building, but it has a strong modern atmosphere, which is mixed with the decoration of Chinese elements.

"So many kinds of food? More than a party! It is not inferior to that of Zhonghua House at all. But Brauvin didn't notice any of this, and he was fascinated by the variety of colourful foods.

"We now have more than 100 kinds of food on the well-established menu at our main store. We currently only have 28 types of food, and we will gradually increase them in the future. You two can check it out over there first! Seeing the new guests coming, Zhang Dinghua hurriedly explained in standard French.

In the direction he pointed, there was a circle and a half of spaced counters, and behind each counter there was a reading room for a snack or two.

Tianjin Goubuli, Shaanxi Meat Sandwich Bun, Dadao Rice Skin, Lanzhou Ramen, Yunnan Rice Noodles, and other street foods that Meng Xiang was more familiar with in his previous life were pushed out first, and Chaos, steamed buns, baked cakes, and glutinous rice balls also appeared.

In order to gain a foothold in France, a gastronomic country, it is not enough to rely on one or two gourmet snacks in the face of the discerning French. Although there are many varieties and increase the cost, Meng Xiang still increases the variety of snacks in various parts of the family portrait.

There are many Chinese in foreign countries, and they are excluded, which makes it difficult for them to make a living. I can't get into the factory, and there are many people who can barely survive by opening a small Chinese restaurant because of the large variety of Chinese food.

Meng Xiang has now built more than a dozen Chinese buildings in major cities around the world to promote orthodox Chinese cuisine, and has made it a place for the vanguard army to work abroad and a place for local Chinese to settle down. However, with its abundant capital and advanced service management concepts, Mengxiang has entered the foreign catering industry in a big way, which has also had a relatively large impact on local Chinese restaurants.

To this end, on the basis of the Chinese orthodox cuisine in the Zhonghua Building, Meng Xiang has launched a new fast food model of family portrait, and cooperated with the original local Chinese restaurants. Those who read the power of the room is equivalent to a Chinese restaurant, here belongs to those Chinese restaurants, they only need to make their own specialty dishes, to share dividends according to the sales volume, and other service management is a family portrait thing.

This is equivalent to a catering supermarket, which is different from a normal food supermarket in that the food here is all freshly made and sold.

For a very profitable supermarket, Meng Xiang also had this idea, but then dispelled it. Soon after, World War II will make goods scarce, transportation difficult, and all kinds of goods are in extreme shortage, and the launch of supermarkets at this time will only smash the sale. Even the United States will have restrictions, plus problems with the staffing and management of supermarkets. This is not a good time to promote. Meng Xiang just set up a shadow company in the United States to do preliminary exploration.

Family portrait is just a kind of fast food, it is for low-end people, so it is mainly based on all kinds of snacks. Meng Xiang's purpose is not only to make money, what he needs is to promote Chinese cuisine abroad and establish the concept of Chinese culture in an all-round way.

In fact, the fast food varieties in Meng Xiang's hands are not only this family portrait that wins with delicious varieties, but also KFC in cooperation with Pepsi, which Meng Xiang has acquired, and McDonald's, which holds 20% of Coca-Cola's shares.

Meng Xiang was also surprised when he heard that these two fast food restaurants had not appeared at this time, he didn't know that these two were only finalized in the forties and fifties. However, Uncle Sandoz's secret recipe for the sauce came out 30 years ago. After Meng Xiang inquired, he immediately got in touch with him and provided the secret of the pressure cooker handling the chicken, and KFC opened ahead of schedule.

Similarly, McDonald's brothers' McDonald's fast food restaurants have opened in California. The shares of several investors they obtained were tightly held in Meng Xiang's hands. This is Meng Xiang's old method, foreign companies are generally the original managers who hold the largest shares, but the shares in the hands of several investors controlled by other shadow companies will exceed 50%.

Both fast food companies are currently developing in the United States, and with World War II, Americans' tentacles will extend to all parts of the world, these American companies will also extend to the past, and a lot of money will fall into Meng Xiang's pocket.

"Junk food is about being as garbage as you are. As long as you can make money! I'm going to make these two the biggest garbage producers."

Zhang Dingwen walked out of the store, leaned next to the female Fuwa, and said softly: "Yiwen, how is it?" No, just replace me? ”

"It's okay, these thick cosmetic outfits are warm, and it's not cold in there at all. No, there are a lot of children here, and it's fun. A girl's voice came from inside.

"It's not fair! Dinghua, why don't you come for me? My feet are tired and numb. Isn't there an angel to comfort and comfort my heart? A man's cry came from the male Fuwa next to him.

"Can I take you home?" The childish voice of a little blonde girl of three or four years old interrupted his crying.

"Jiahui, your angel has appeared!" Si Yiwen chuckled.

Locke was a little embarrassed, but he still tried his best to bend down and said:

"What's your name, kid? How old are you? ”

"My name is Mary and I'm three years old. Can you come home with me? My family has a big vineyard, and I invite you to eat the grapes. Mary said seriously.

"Oh, Mary. I'm still here waiting for the other kids to arrive. I'll transform, though, and I'll conjure up a new friend to play with you. You can bring him home! Good no good? Locke whispered softly to Mary, who was full of anticipation.

"Look at it, toot toot, change!" He straightened up and spun around in place, and when he stopped, he already had a toy in his hand.

"That Mary of yours took the toy and walked away. Why don't you let her take it home? Then you can eat grapes every day. Didn't you always want to have a vineyard? The girl teased in a strange voice.

"Nope! I want to go back to Huaxia! China is still at war. When we came, General Meng had already said that Mother Huaxia needed us to go back and dress her up more beautifully! The voice of the male Fuwa suddenly became solemn, and the three of them were silent for a while, only the four or five children next to them were still chasing hide and seek around the two filled bulging Fuwa.

"Why not? Aren't all children in China having pigtail braids? Why is this doll not on the doll head? Girls don't have cheongsams either? A voice interrupted the silence of the trio.

Next to the nearby window, a bearded reporter in a jacket shook his head as he spoke.

"This gentleman, this is our Huaxia Fuwa!" Zhang Dinghua went up and said in a deep voice.

"Huaxia, I know, aren't they all braided?" The bearded man said impatiently.

"That's not Huaxia! The Chinese people have long stopped leaving pig tails! Zhang Dingwen said angrily.
