Chapter 252 Don't Dare to "Confront" The Great Demon King

Zhang Fenglin looked at his partner's mobile phone, and the displayed coordinates were Old Street, and his expression suddenly became a little complicated.

The partners are still chattering, imagining that they will open the store in the old street, so that they can make a big splash in the old street. Zhang Fenglin used the craftsmanship of the chef of Fujinglou to beat the crowd in the old street.

Liu Quan, Zhang Fenglin's apprentice, finally couldn't bear it and said, "Boss Ji, we can't open a shop on that street."

Ji Renjie looked at Liu Quan, and asked with some puzzlement: "Why? Is it because the old street is going to be rebuilt? You don't have to worry about it. I have already asked my friends. Whole demolition.

Moreover, many shops over there are currently changing hands at low prices because of the news that they will be remodeled. This happens to be our opportunity. "

Ji Renjie weaves a bright future for the master and apprentice.

"Let's start with a shop with a reasonable price. We can lower the price on the grounds of the reconstruction of the old street, and we will rent it directly for three or five years at a low price.

Then we don't want to move there directly, let's just wait and see what happens, and we will carry out the decoration after the reconstruction of the old street over there starts.

The progress is about the same. After the reconstruction of the old street is completed, we will also complete the decoration and open our restaurant directly, so that we can seize the opportunity. "

Ji Renjie really wove a very bright prospect, as if their restaurant would be a hit by then.

Zhang Fenglin's complexion was very bad, and finally he couldn't help but say: "Old Ji, let's forget about opening a restaurant over there. Our current place is already the best location, so we can run the restaurant well. of."

After hearing Zhang Fenglin's words, Ji Renjie was really helpless: "Old Zhang, I really don't have to change places, but you have actually seen that our current business is very poor."

After a pause, Ji Renjie said very seriously: "And let me tell you the truth, the reason why we can't do business here is because we don't fit in with the atmosphere here."

Zhang Fenglin looked at Ji Renjie with some doubts. He didn't quite understand what the so-called "incompatible atmosphere" meant?

Ji Renjie saw that Zhang Fenglin didn't quite understand, so he could only say: "Old Zhang, to put it simply, some of the things in our restaurant can't keep up with the preferences of young people here, and they are out of date."

Zhang Fenglin still doesn't understand. He has learned cooking for so many years, how could he suddenly fall behind here?

Could it be that no one appreciates the traditional old cooking skills?

But the business of Fujing Building is still very good, right?

Seeing that Zhang Fenglin still didn't understand, Ji Renjie could only drag Zhang Fenglin out of the restaurant together, stood in front of their restaurant and pointed around.

"Look for yourself, where we are standing now is a modern commercial center. The restaurants here are mainly western food, and there are all kinds of online celebrity shops, all of which are full of fashionable features. thing.

Compared with others, a store like ours is really out of place here, we are too traditional. "

Standing in front of the door, Zhang Fenglin looked around, all around him were tall buildings with glass walls.

The place where their restaurant is located is a circular commercial food street, surrounded by modern streetscapes, with very beautiful floor tiles under their feet, and the surrounding modern buildings are connected to each other by flying bridges.

Looking at it this way, Zhang Fenglin had to admit that a restaurant like theirs was really out of place here.

Next door to their restaurant is a very famous western restaurant.

One is a trendy restaurant full of fashion elements, which is very suitable for young people's petty bourgeoisie.

Being sandwiched between these two, Zhang Fenglin's restaurant really doesn't have any advantage. The guests who came here didn't even want to take a second look at their home.

Liu Quan came out at this time and stood beside the master. Seeing the master looking around, the expression on his face gradually became a little helpless.

Finally, the apprentice couldn't help but say: "Master,

In fact, I heard some passing customers say that our decoration is too rustic, and our dishes don't look fashionable at all. "

This situation really made Zhang Fenglin feel deeply frustrated for the first time.

Obviously, he has learned cooking skills for many years, and has even become a top chef and the head chef of the most famous Fujinglou.

As a result, now that he opened a restaurant by himself, he couldn't compare to some second-rate and third-rate ordinary cooks next to him.

All this was a real blow to Zhang Fenglin.

Even this kind of blow was even bigger than when he was driven away from Fujinglou, and a young girl in Fujinglou took his place.

Seeing Zhang Fenglin's silence, Ji Renjie's expression gradually became very bad.

Ji Renjie hurriedly said: "Old Zhang, it's not your fault, you don't have to blame yourself, it's mainly because I chose the address at the beginning, I shouldn't choose such a place, it doesn't suit our characteristics, and it's not suitable for you either." identity.

So Lao Zhang, let's change places and go to that old street. That's the most suitable place for us. I believe we will regroup there. "

After listening to Ji Renjie's words, Zhang Fenglin suddenly recovered, smiled and asked, "Old Ji, how much did you invest in this restaurant?"

Ji Renjie was a little strange: "Why are you asking this? Oh, don't worry, you don't have to think about the money, we'll just test the waters, and then we'll start over in another place."

Although Ji Renjie is not considered a rich boss, in fact, the restaurant didn't spend much of his money in such a short week.

That's why Ji Renjie thought of changing the place as soon as possible, find a more suitable place, and stop the loss in time.

Zhang Fenglin thought for a while and said, "Old Ji, you rented this store. At that time, you paid three months' rent, plus a deposit. The total should be nearly half a million, right?"

Ji Renjie nodded subconsciously, and continued to ask strangely: "Old Zhang, what do you mean? You really don't have to figure it out so clearly. Since we are a partnership, I am prepared to lose money."

Zhang Fenglin nodded and said: "Well, I am prepared to lose money, so I plan to give you the rent money, and I will bear the risk for the next six months alone."

Ji Renjie was stunned for an instant, and Liu Quan was also stunned.

Zhang Fenglin said very seriously: "I am the head chef of Fujinglou. I have been learning to cook for more than 20 years. Now I am really frustrated, but I can't be knocked down. I can't just give up.

So I decided to work hard for half a year, I will continue to stay here, and then according to the actual situation of the surrounding area, we will redecorate our store, and I will also make some improvements to the dishes. "

Speaking of this, Zhang Fenglin looked at Ji Renjie who was stunned and completely speechless.

"I can't let you try with me and follow me to lose money, so I decided to return the money you invested, and I will bear all the next risks alone. If it doesn't work after half a year, then I admit it."

Ji Renjie was completely dumbfounded.

But Liu Quan looked at Master, but seemed to understand what Master meant.

Master is not willing to bow his head. Master has his pride, so he still has to persevere. To prove that he, as the former head chef of Fujinglou, has the ability to run his own restaurant well.

At this moment, Liu Quan felt that Master had become tall and responsible.

Ji Renjie finally came back to his senses, and asked a little puzzled: "Why? Old Zhang, after this week, you should have noticed that we may really not be suitable for this place."

Zhang Fenglin shook his head and said, "No, it's only been a week, I won't just give up like this."

Ji Renjie looked helpless: "But, obviously we have a better choice, and we can succeed more easily."

Zhang Fenglin looked at Ji Renjie, and asked very seriously: "Do you think it will be better if we move to the old street, and after the reconstruction of the old street is completed, we will open there?"

Ji Renjie said with certainty: "Of course, I did a survey there, and it belongs to the traditional cultural area. The cooking skills you learned, Mr. Zhang, must be the most suitable there. I dare say that there is no better place in Huaicheng." You are more suitable."

When Liu Quan heard this, he couldn't help looking at his master, thinking that what Ji Renjie said was too much.

Not to mention the top devil on the old street.

If Zhang Fenglin was the most suitable for Huai City, why was he kicked out of Fujing Building by a little girl?

Of course, Liu Quan just thought about these words in his heart. He didn't show any disrespect to his master, but he just felt that Ji Renjie's flattery was too obvious.

Sure enough, Zhang Fenglin heard it and said directly: "Your words are clearly flattering me, Lao Ji, you really don't know that there is a real big devil in the culinary world hidden in that old street?"

Ji Renjie asked strangely: "The big devil in the culinary world? What do you mean?"

Zhang Fenglin continued: "This word is a word I heard from him in some cartoons I took the time to chat with my son recently. It means that on that old street, there is a stronger one that I don't know. There is no existence that cannot be defeated.”

Ji Renjie was a little surprised: "Yes, is that so? There is such an existence? It's more powerful than that girl in Fujinglou?"

After saying this, Ji Renjie hurriedly apologized to Zhang Fenglin: "Ah, I'm sorry, Old Zhang."

Zhang Fenglin didn't mind: "The girl in Fujinglou is young and promising, and she is indeed very strong, but compared with the girl in the old street, she is a little ant who is not good at all."

Ji Renjie was even more surprised: "Old Zhang, you didn't intend to scare me, did you? Is there really such a powerful person? Will he open a restaurant in that kind of old street?"

Zhang Fenglin didn't answer, but instead asked, "Old Ji, where did you notice Lao Jie?"

Ji Renjie said: "Oh, isn't this the latest issue of Philippine Witness? I saw that many people were watching and chatting, so I took a look and felt that the atmosphere of that place really suits you. Chef Zhang."

Zhang Fenglin then asked: "Then, have you finished watching the episode that Fei Chang witnessed?"

Ji Renjie was taken aback for a moment: "I really haven't finished watching it."

Zhang Fenglin nodded: "Well, then you'd better read it, and then you will understand everything."

Ji Renjie hesitated for a moment, seeing that Zhang Fenglin and Liu Quan were very serious, he could only walk back to the restaurant. Take out your mobile phone, connect to the restaurant's WI-FI, and look for videos on your mobile phone.

Zhang Fenglin continued to stand at the door, observing the surrounding environment. This was the first time he had understood it so seriously.

During the week he came here, Zhang Fenglin spent most of his time in the kitchen, rarely observing his surroundings so carefully.

What partner Ji Renjie said today made Zhang Fenglin start to face up to the problem.

After all, he is no longer the head chef of Fujinglou.

Now that I am doing business by myself, I need to calculate everything by myself. Many things have to be observed and seriously considered. I can't expect another operator to do it for me.

Zhang Fenglin stood at the door to observe, and took note of some shops that were often visited by people.

He decided to go to those stores to find out the preferences of some customers and the characteristics of those stores.

Zhang Fenglin has already decided in his heart that this time he will never back down easily, he will definitely cheer up and work hard again, relying on his own ability to open a restaurant of his own.

Now the goal in his heart is Su Ji, but he also knows that he can't really do what Su Ji does.

But Zhang Fenglin decided that, like the generations of Su Ji, he insisted on walking his own path.

Carefully note down the location of some surrounding shops, Zhang Fenglin also planned a way to explore the shops.

At this moment, Ji Renjie exclaimed in the restaurant: "I'm going, is this real? God, is this a dish? This is simply a work of art. I didn't even know it. We really have such a top-notch restaurant in Huaicheng." Does a cook exist?"

Hearing Ji Renjie's exclamation, Zhang Fenglin also led his apprentice Liu Quan back to the restaurant.

Walking in front of Ji Renjie, Zhang Fenglin smiled and asked, "Now, do you think it's okay for us to open a shop in the old street?"

Ji Renjie was stunned for a long time, and then said directly: "Who said that? Who said he was going to open a shop there?"

Liu Quan couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, Mr. Ji, you are too real, aren't you? Didn't you still say that my master is the best one? It is absolutely popular to open a shop there."

Ji Renjie was exposed, and he said helplessly, "Okay, I admit it, I am blind. I really didn't expect that there is such a true god hidden in that old street."

Zhang Fenglin nodded and said: "He is indeed a true god, a great demon king. After all, he is the true successor of Su Ji, and I only learned a little bit from Su Ji."

Hearing this, Ji Renjie was a little surprised: "Old Zhang, you said just now, did you also learn from this Suji?"

Zhang Fenglin glanced at his partner, and then at the apprentices around him. In the end, he didn't hide any more, and told the story about being forced by his father to learn cooking in Suji.

Not to mention Ji Renjie, even Liu Quan heard of it for the first time. He didn't hear much of the master's chat with Feng Yifan last time.

Liu Quan never thought that Master would be so rebellious when he was young, let alone that Master would speak out frankly.

But Ji Renjie was stunned for a while after hearing this, and suddenly said: "Great, Lao Zhang, since you have such a relationship, you can go to Suji to find the big devil to learn from. Know how to deal with the two stores next to us."

Zhang Fenglin's heart was moved by Ji Renjie's words, but Zhang Fenglin was a little afraid to think that he might meet his father when he went to Su Ji.
