The wealthy man's wife is a sideline [rebirth]

Sister Zhong said: "Not only the menu on the opposite side is exactly the same as ours, but the price is also discounted, which is only half of ours. When customers line up at the door, their waiters will come to ask with the menu. Many people see that it is cheaper over there. , it’s all over. Little boss, what do you think about this matter?”

Su Qiao didn't care about anything else, and asked the key point first: "For the same menu, Song Shi Ji will give you a [-]% discount on our price?"

He faintly wondered if he heard it wrong.

The price of Su Ji itself is very affordable, and it doesn't cost much to eat a full belly.Many customers have said before that when they saw the price, they had no hope for the taste of the dishes. Who knew the taste was so good.So every time I check out, I always have the illusion that I have eaten for nothing.

Su Ji has already taken the cheap route, and the price of Song Shi Ji is only half of its own price, which sounds somewhat unbelievable.

What route are they taking, the cabbage route?

Sister Zhong took a menu from the counter and handed it to Su Qiao: "A customer passed by their house to pick it up, brought it over and put it on the table, I thought the little boss had to look at it, so I didn't ask the waiter to throw it away. There are prices marked on them, which are indeed cheaper than ours.”

Su Qiao looked at the menu and pursed her lips.

All the dish names above are familiar.Cuiyu three shredded beef, assorted tofu with minced shrimp, golden noodles in a small cup... Even the golden fan screen with a gimmicky name appeared on the menu without changing a single word.

If it was not intentional, no one would believe it.

"Ode to Food sets the price so low..." Su Qiao said. "can earn money?"

Sister Zhong counted up the cost in her mind, she didn't need to calculate it, she just made a rough estimate, and then thought about the price, she shook her head decisively.

"The pricing of our dishes is already very low. No matter how much the price is lowered, the [-]% discount will definitely be a loss." Sister Zhong said. "Of course, Songshiji is a chain. Many raw materials are purchased in large quantities in a unified manner. The cost will be lower than ours, but the price is really not profitable, unless they use inferior materials."

Su Qiao was thoughtful, thought for a while, and said slowly: "I want to taste how their food tastes."

In the catering industry, the most important thing is of course the taste of the dishes.No matter how low the price is, if the taste is unbearable, customers will still dismiss it.Su Qiao hadn't thought of any good solution yet. He was inexperienced in this kind of competition and didn't know how to counter it, so he had to start with what he knew.

You have to understand what Song Shi Ji made before you know what to do next.

Sister Zhong has a lot of experience and enough experience in dealing with things. She thought of this as early as this morning.

"I asked the waiter to go there at the beginning of eleven o'clock, but they probably recognize the face and won't sell it to us." Sister Zhong said helplessly. "There are only a few of us here, across the street every day, commuting to and from get off work together, and I have a general impression on the other side."

The waiter didn't wear the work clothes in the store when he passed by, so he was recognized.People directly said that they would not do this business. In front of so many people, it would not look good to make a fuss, so they could only walk back in despair.

Sister Zhong is still angry when she thinks about this. It is obvious that Song Shi Ji copied her own menu, so they went over here to find out what happened. Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong.

But the waiter over there looked defensive, as if he had some secrets and was afraid of being stolen.

"Hmm..." Su Qiao frowned.

This is not very easy to do.

All the employees in the store are familiar with each other.Su Qiao first thought of asking her two roommates to pack a few dishes, but then she thought about it, the roommates came to help when it opened, maybe the waiters of Songshiji also have an impression.

The other students were not very familiar with it, so it was a bit abrupt to ask someone for such a favor rashly.

Mr. Luo worked hard, and his father managed to win the foreign inspection team. During this time, he was very busy...

Su Qiao thought for a few minutes, and suddenly a suitable candidate popped up in her head.

He asked Sister Zhong to wait for a while, and took the mobile phone to send a message to the contact in the list.

Su Qiao: [Maomao knocks on the door.gif]

Su Qiao: [Are you there?Are you free now? 】

The person on the other side was probably idle, and within a few seconds, there was a reply.

Luo Xingzhu: [Yes, yes.Chirp, what do you want from me?Available 24 hours a day, on call. 】

Luo Xingzhu: 【Of course I can avoid it at night, for fear of being killed by my brother. 】

Luo Xingzhu: [The cat shrinks its head.jpg]

Su Qiao: [Can I trouble you to do me a favor?I invite you to come to my house for dinner on weekends. 】

Luo Xingzhu is his cousin, and he has always listened to Luo Yunshen since he was a child. Su Qiao is his half relative, and if he needs help with something, of course he will not refuse.

Not to mention asking him to dinner.

In order to be able to go to my cousin's house to eat the meals Su Qiao cooked herself, no matter how difficult it is, I have to find a way to do it.

He immediately agreed and asked Su Qiao what was the matter.

Su Qiao hesitated for a moment, she didn't have the nerve to be too specific, so she just asked Luo Xingzhu to come over, and when she came, she stopped by the opposite Song Shi Ji to pack a few dishes.

Luo Xingzhu was a little puzzled at first, thinking that Su Qiao cooks so delicious food by himself, and now he has opened a restaurant, and still packs other's food?

It's not like he hasn't heard of Ode to Food, Jincheng is still a famous chain restaurant.The taste and price are so-so, how can this make Su Qiao fancy.

He murmured in his heart, parked his car at the place, and within two steps of walking, a menu was stuffed into his hand by the staff of Songshiji.

"Are you looking for a place to eat?" the waiter said. "Welcome to Ode to Food!"

Luo Xingzhu looked down, and suddenly felt a sense in his heart.

He raised his eyes and asked the staff of Song Shi Ji: "Has your menu changed?"

The waiter didn't blush at all, and nodded with a smile on his face: "It's just launched today. In order to promote this set of menus, the price is set at a very favorable price. Would you like to come in and try it?"

Luo Xingzhu looked at the menu and thought to himself what kind of nonsense this is... still using a promotional menu?Malicious competition is malicious competition. The words are so beautiful, as if this menu is really the first one launched by Songshiji.

He and Xu Shun thought of the name of the dish "Golden Fan Screen" above.

He sucked his cheeks, sneered twice, and said to the waiter: "Lead the way, find me a table. After eating later, pack a few dishes to take away. I still have friends waiting to eat."

It will be past meal time, there are a few empty tables inside, so there is no need to wait in line.

The waiter was all smiles, and called his colleagues to take Luo Xingzhu inside, and sat down at the table for two.

Luo Xingzhu barely thought about it, just ticked off a few strokes on the menu and asked the waiter to place an order.He didn't come to eat in the first place, so it didn't matter what he ordered.

"Bring me another menu." Luo Xingzhu said. "Order a few dishes and take them away later."

While waiting for the food to be served, he sent Su Qiao a message.

Luo Xingzhu: [Jijiu, I'm already in the Songshiji store.What's the matter?How long have they been doing this, and has your store been greatly affected? 】

Luo Xingzhu: [he-tui!What a big face to do this kind of thing, the name of the dish is not changed, it is copied and pasted. 】

Luo Xingzhu: [I'll taste it later, it will be very interesting if it's a trick. 】

Su Qiao replied with a cat bowing emoji, thanked him, and explained that Song Shi Ji only started doing this today, and the store is in good condition.

Songshiji served the dishes very quickly, and after a while, the dishes that Luo Xingzhu ordered came one after another.The waiter asked from the side: "Are you going to take away the ten dishes ordered here?"

Luo Xingzhu nodded, and said, "Put more rice, I'm afraid it won't be enough if there are too many people."

When he said that, the waiter didn't feel suspicious at all, and responded with a smile.

The golden fan screen in Su Qiao's store was named after Luo Xingzhu's participation, so he naturally ordered this.

The golden fan screen of Ode to Food, in appearance, is almost the same as that produced by Su Ji.

Pleurotus eryngii mushrooms are cut into half-centimeter thick slices, and the whole presents a regular and beautiful rectangle.Because it is cooked in chicken broth, it absorbs the soup, so the color is yellowish, and it looks juicy and full, which is mouth-watering.The chicken soup on the bottom of the white porcelain plate is clear and translucent, with a light puddle of golden oil floating on it.

As a chain restaurant, Song Shi Ji's chefs are naturally of a certain standard. It is not difficult to imitate a dish so that the appearance is not bad.What's more, the golden fan screen didn't spend much effort on its appearance. As long as the king oyster mushrooms are sliced ​​in a suitable shape, they can look similar.

So Luo Xingzhu didn't think there was anything wrong at first.

But with a piece of Pleurotus eryngii mushroom caught in his chopsticks, Luo Xingzhu's expression became solemn as soon as he took it in.

The taste of this dish is very similar to that made by Su Qiao himself.

Of course there are differences, the chicken soup lacks umami taste, the taste of Pleurotus eryngii is not suitable enough, and part of it is bland.

But even so, this dish is already considered delicious, and ordinary customers may not care so much.Moreover, even if there is a slight lack of taste, the half-cheap price is enough to make up for the gap in the eyes of many people.

Luo Xingzhu finished eating the piece of Pleurotus eryngii with mixed feelings, thinking in his heart.

The dishes made by Su Qiao basically do not use expensive ingredients, so the raw materials are quite easy to get.But it is not an easy task to make the taste so similar.

Previously, Luo Xingzhu liked Su Qiao's steamed chicken with ham very much. After getting the recipe, he tried several times at home without success.It is obvious that Su Qiao wrote down the condiments used in detail, but he did not taste that way no matter what.

Later, it was Su Qiao who made a special trip to teach the recipe to the chef in the old house. How long did each step take, and the seasoning was accurate to the gram, and everything was explained clearly, so that Luo Xingzhu could eat it at any time without looking at his cousin's face. this dish.

Of course, it is impossible for Su Qiao to tell the chef of Song Shi Ji how to make the golden fan screen.

How come this dish tastes so similar?

Different heat and seasoning will create different tastes.Even for the same recipe, the dishes made by two different people have different tastes.

When some chefs are researching new dishes, they make them for the first time and the second time. Due to the slight difference in the amount of seasoning, the flavor of the finished product is completely different.That's why it needs to be adjusted repeatedly until the best balance of ingredients, heat and seasoning is found.

Luo Xingzhu almost didn't need to think, he knew that there must be something wrong with Su Qiao.

He put down his chopsticks and sent Su Qiao a sand sculpture emoticon package.

Luo Xingzhu: [There is an insider, terminate the transaction.jpg]
