Chapter 1425 The yard is still bustling with activity
As night falls, the Garden Western Restaurant is brightly lit, and the courtyard is still bustling with activity. Ma Hua and Zhao Aimin sat together, sipping red wine and reviewing everything about the day.
"Today is great!" Zhao Aimin said with emotion, "We finally realized our dream."
Ma Hua nodded, "Yes, but this is just the beginning. We still have a long way to go and many dreams to realize."
Liu Lan is an outgoing and funny person. He not only learned how to be a chef in the Soviet Union, but also had many interesting experiences. He always adds some tips he learned in Russia when cooking to make the dishes more diverse and exotic.
One night, in the Garden Western Restaurant, Liu Lan was cooking a special dish-Russian red cabbage soup. He worked skillfully in the kitchen, and the aroma of the ingredients spread throughout the yard.
Zhao Aimin and Ma Hua sat at the door of the kitchen, smelling the aroma, their eyes full of anticipation. "Brother Liu, those Russian dishes you learned are really great!" Zhao Aimin praised.
Liu Lan smiled and said, "This is just a small skill of mine. After all, during those years in the Soviet Union, I personally experienced various food cultures."
Ma Hua asked enthusiastically, "Brother Liu, what was your favorite dish when you were in the Soviet Union?"
Liu Lan thought for a moment, and a flash of memory flashed in her eyes, "My favorite is probably the Russian pickled cabbage soup. It is a sweet and sour soup, and it is a perfect match with the fragrant bread."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "Although those years in the Soviet Union were difficult, there were also many good memories. I learned a lot there and made many friends."
Both Zhao Aimin and MCA knew that Liu Lan's life in the Soviet Union was not easy. It was a strange country with a language and culture very different from China, but he was able to make a name for himself there and learned many of the essences of cooking.
"Brother Liu, you are so amazing!" Ma Hua praised sincerely, "We all admire your persistence and courage."
Liu Lan smiled and said, "Thank you for your compliments. In fact, it is not easy to work hard outside. But as long as you have dreams and courage, you will be able to overcome all difficulties."
After saying that, he brought a pot of hot Russian cabbage soup to the table. The thick aroma hits the nostrils and makes people salivate.
"Come, try my specialties!" Liu Lan invited them with a smile.
Zhao Aimin and Ma Hua scooped up a spoonful of red cabbage soup without ceremony and tasted it. Immediately, a strong sweet and sour taste filled their mouths, which was unforgettable.
"It's so delicious!" Zhao Aimin praised.
"It's really great!" MCA also praised it repeatedly.
Although the Garden Western Restaurant was welcomed and praised by many customers in the initial stage of its opening, Liu Lan, Zhao Aimin and Ma Hua knew that more financial support was needed to build this small courtyard into a long-term and stable business.
One night, after busy work in a western restaurant, the three of them sat on a bench in the yard and talked about their future plans.
"Although our business is improving, we still don't have enough start-up capital." Zhao Aimin said with a frown.
Ma Hua sighed, "Yes, we still need more funds to expand our business and improve service quality."
Liu Lan pondered for a while, and suddenly her eyes lit up, "I have an idea that may help us solve the funding problem."
"What's the idea?" Zhao Aimin and Ma Hua asked in unison.
Liu Lan smiled and said, "When I was in the Soviet Union, I met some foreign friends. One of them was in the food import and export business. Maybe we can introduce some foreign ingredients and drinks through him to add some features to our restaurant. , attract more customers.”
Zhao Aimin and Ma Hua both thought this idea was a good one. "This is indeed a good idea. We can consider looking for him to see if we can cooperate." Zhao Aimin nodded in agreement.
So, the next day, they made an appointment with Liu Lan's foreign friends to meet at the restaurant. This foreign friend’s name is Nikolay, a warm and generous Russian. After listening to Liu Lan's introduction, he expressed great interest in this cooperation proposal.
"Your Western restaurant looks really good, and I am willing to cooperate with you." Nicholas said, "I can help you introduce some Russian and European ingredients and drinks, and I can also help you promote your restaurant in foreign markets. Dining room."
Liu Lan and Zhao Aimin were very excited after hearing this. "That's great!" Liu Lan said excitedly, "We are short of some special ingredients and drinks, and your help is a real help for us."
Nicholas smiled and said, "I am also looking forward to cooperating with you. We can discuss the details of cooperation in detail and then start cooperation as soon as possible."
After some discussions, Liu Lan, Zhao Aimin, MCA and Nikola reached a cooperation agreement. Nicola will be responsible for introducing ingredients and drinks and assisting them in promoting them in foreign markets, while Liu Lan, Zhao Aimin and Ma Hua will be responsible for continuing to operate and improve the quality and service of the Garden Western Restaurant.
MCA feels that in order to expand business and increase the characteristics and quality of the Western restaurant, the funding problem needs to be solved as soon as possible. Therefore, he decided to go out of his way to borrow the required start-up capital.
Early in the morning, MCA wore a neat shirt and trousers and went out in high spirits. He made full preparations in advance. With a detailed business plan and business plan, he was ready to find a suitable bank or lending institution to apply for a loan.
He went to a nearby bank and found a loan officer. The commissioner is a young and promising woman. After listening to MCA's introduction, she expressed strong interest in his plan.
"This project of yours sounds very promising," the commissioner said, "but there are some risk factors that need to be taken into account for the loan. Can you tell me specifically about your repayment plan and the use of funds?"
MCA came up with a carefully prepared business plan, detailing their repayment plan and use of funds. “We plan to use this loan to further improve the restaurant’s decoration and equipment, introduce some special ingredients and drinks, and improve service quality.” He said, “We believe that through these measures, our restaurant will be able to attract more customers. customers, increase revenue, and thereby pay off the loan.”
The commissioner nodded repeatedly after hearing this. "Your plan is very promising. I believe the bank will consider your application." She said, "I will submit your application to my superiors for review and hope to get a reply as soon as possible."
Ma Hua breathed a sigh of relief and thanked the commissioner gratefully. "Thank you for your help, I will wait patiently for a reply."
