“Although we are making ordinary dishes, there are those who can’t afford the branded dishes at the Imperial Master’s restaurant, but would like to have a taste of what it is like. We can offer them a pot, some vegetables and meat, and then they can have a taste of whatever they want by making the hot-pot themselves. In this way, they are able to have a taste of the expensive dishes open only for the nobles without spending too much money, that sounds nice, doesn’t it?”
“We are not going to make them pay too much, just a few pennies for the uncooked dishes in the kitchen, so we can just charge them the cost of ordinary dishes, and try to keep a low-profile with our business,” Gu Chaoyan said with a smile.
She looked as if she were really opening a restaurant for ordinary dishes.
Everyone in the room was really startled.
Selling ordinary dishes? However, they were given just a pot and would have to make the uncooked dishes themselves?
Well… That was still hot-pot!
Sword One, who was astonished, started to calculate inside her head.
So, basically the two things were the same, but they did not make them as exquisite, but kept them ordinary and charged at a low price.
When those noble people visited the Imperial Master’s restaurant and found that the civilians were eating the same things as they were eating…
Those noble people would get really pissed, when they had to eat the same quality of food at a higher price than those civilians…
In this way, the Imperial Master’s restaurant would run out of business.
The Elder Miss was giving someone a taste of their own medicine, to pay back in one’s own coin.
Sword One got so excited that she clapped. “Elder Miss, you are so smart to have come up with this idea!”
Gu Chaoyan smiled briefly.
It was not a very easy method to come up with. To be honest, the difference between these two things was just the difference in price. And… the other aspect was the exclusiveness.
Noble people did not want to eat the same food as the civilians, but there were more civilians than nobles in this world.
Gu Chaoyan did not plan to earn money from those noble people, so she did not care about the consequences.
“However, if we only sell the food at a low price, how are we able to make money? Although the Imperial Master will get punished, one of your purposes is to make money with Prince Muyi. We can’t forget this point, otherwise we will pay big,” Zhou Huaiyu said seriously.
He had been running casinos in the capital since he was much younger. Those casinos were not well-licensed, but sometimes, he would take the lead when he saw the business potential. Apart from the casinos, he had other business running elsewhere.
Zhou Huaiyu was qualified enough to talk about running a business. That was why he would cut in with such a question.
Well, mostly he was just trying to remind Gu Chaoyan of what might happen. They were just at the early stage of a business, so they should take everything into consideration in case they had unnecessary costs in the end.
Hearing Zhou Huaiyu’s question, Gu Chaoyan did not speak and instead took a sip of tea.
When she was done with the tea, she turned to Zhou Huaiyu.
