Having learned about the situation with Fengcai Guild, Xu Yang left and went to Jiang De Lao, where he met with Zhao Hai.
Jiang De Lao was as busy as ever, with operations running smoothly and daily turnover remaining fairly consistent.
Zhao Hai, however, mentioned two new developments.
Recently, people from other cities had been calling to inquire if they could franchise and open Jiang De Lao restaurants in those cities.
Regarding this, Xu Yang thought for a moment and said, "No franchising. I want to run it as a company-owned operation. With franchising, it's hard for others to achieve our level of extreme service, and it could easily ruin Jiang De Lao's reputation."
Franchising could indeed save a lot of money and management hassle.
But the quality of franchise stores couldn't be guaranteed.
That was not what Xu Yang wanted to see.
Besides, the expansion of Jiang De Lao was just a matter of money.
He now had plenty of money and wasn't afraid to spend it.
