Pei Qian did not sense any danger when he first heard the words' garbage classification '.
After all, garbage classification was a big trend that all countries around the world were doing. It was only 2011, and it seemed a little early for domestic garbage classification. However, there would always be some phenomena of advanced development in this world. Pei Qian had experienced it many times.
Moreover, garbage classification was nothing more than to cultivate people's awareness of environmental protection and make their daily lives a little more troublesome. It would not have much impact on everyone's lives.
Therefore, Pei Qian did not immediately realize what 'garbage classification' meant to him.
However, Pei Qian suddenly reacted after being stunned for a while.
Garbage classification had nothing to do with him, but it had a lot to do with Fish-Catching Take-Out!
At present, all Fish-Catching Take-Out had a unified process: white porcelain bowls would be delivered to the door. Customers would leave the leftovers in the cutlery to be recycled after finishing their meal. After the delivery men recycled the cutlery, they would uniformly dispose of the leftovers. The dishwasher would wash and disinfect the cutlery and reuse it.
The bad thing was in the 'uniform disposal of leftovers'!
In fact, Pei Qian did not think about this at all at first. He just thought that recycling the cutlery would allow the delivery men to make more trips and spend more money. At the same time, he could compensate more if the cutlery was lost.
However, once garbage classification was implemented, the situation was completely different!
For customers, Fish-Catching Take-Out did not have to worry about the problem of leftovers, disposable food boxes, and cutlery compared to other takeaways.
Other takeaways had to throw away the food boxes, cutlery, and leftovers separately after eating. However, Fish-Catching Take-Out did not. The entire set of cutlery could be placed at the door to be recycled as usual. That saved a lot of trouble!
Originally, Fish-Catching Take-Out had a higher premium. Other takeaways could rely on the advantages of 'cheap and convenient' to compete with Fish-Catching Take-Out in the market, but now …
The more Pei Qian thought about it, the more flustered he became. He immediately went to Fish-Catching Take-Out Shop Number One to see the disaster!

Rui Yuchen was worried about the future of Fish-Catching Take-Out.
After reporting to Boss Pei previously, Boss Pei completely ignored the data and operated in an unknown way.
Fish-Catching Take-Out was clearly performing better in first-tier cities and first-tier cities, and in cities with fewer shops outside Handong Province. However, Boss Pei did the opposite and asked Rui Yuchen to open all new branches in Jingzhou City and other cities in Handong Province.
Fish-Catching Take-Out stores in the entire Handong Province were obviously saturated, especially in Jingzhou. Fish-Catching Take-Out stores were competing with each other for business and customers.
Of course, the so-called 'saturation' was a relative concept. It did not mean that all of Jingzhou had been covered. Instead, it meant that the number of Fish-Catching Take-Out stores had exceeded the actual demand of users based on the current number of users.
There was no other way. Rui Yuchen had been trying his best to avoid the coverage of the two stores overlapping before he opened the store. However, there were already too many Fish-Catching Take-Outs in Jingzhou!
In the end, it was simply a case of inserting a needle into a needle. Even though there was a certain overlap with other stores, this was the only way.
All in all, Fish-Catching Take-Out was currently in a state of oversupply in most cities in Handong Province, especially in Jingzhou.
In addition, Rui Yuchen was also having a headache about the Food Harmony brand.
Judging from the pilot situation, Food Harmony's reputation was indeed good, but it was only open to loyal users of Tengda. Customers needed to reach a certain credit rating, and there were very few customers.
Although Food Harmony itself had a certain premium, customizing food boxes, purchasing ingredients, training chefs, cleaning cutlery, and so on all required a lot of money. There was no way to cover the current expenses with just a few servings of Food Harmony sold.
Rui Yuchen's original idea was to make Food Harmony a high-end brand, just like many car manufacturers made additional high-end luxury cars. The main purpose was not to make money, but to show off their muscles, form a dimensional reduction blow to other brands, and thus enhance the high-end value of the main brand.
According to this train of thought, Food Harmony should be small and beautiful. It should only provide high-end services in specific big cities and main stores. It shouldn't be expected to satisfy everyone's needs. Instead, it should be more about showing off its muscles and showing off its high-end dishes.
However, Boss Pei's thinking was still unpredictable.
Boss Pei requested that the Food Harmony brand be promoted to all Fish-Catching Take-Out stores immediately. Even those in third-tier cities were no exception.
All Fish-Catching Internet Cafes that already had Fish-Catching Take-Out business were also updated simultaneously.
This way, each store would have to re-invest a lot of money to purchase food boxes, train chefs, and purchase ingredients, which would greatly increase the losses of all stores!
Rui Yuchen, who had seen a little profit, was instantly stunned by Boss Pei's combination of punches. Fish-Catching Take-Out had become a bottomless pit of losses again.
What did Boss Pei mean by that?
Rui Yuchen was really puzzled.
He also discussed these problems with Lin Canrong of the nameless restaurant, but Lin Canrong could not explain it. He just said that he should wait patiently if he could not figure it out, and that Boss Pei must have other arrangements.
Therefore, these days, Rui Yuchen was busy opening stores and promoting Food Harmony while trying to figure out Boss Pei's true intentions twenty-four hours a day.
However, he still gained nothing.
Rui Yuchen found an empty seat in the store and continued to think about the deeper meaning of Boss Pei's move after letting several customers try the new products of Fish-Catching Take-Out in Store Number One.
However, at this time, there were frequent new order voice prompts in the store.
"Ding … new order."
"Ding … new order."
"Ding … new, ding, ding … new order."
At first, Rui Yuchen did not care because it was already past five in the afternoon when he looked at the time. It was almost dinnertime. It was normal to have new orders.
However, after a while, Rui Yuchen suddenly realized that something was wrong.
This new order is too frequent, this kind of situation has never happened before!
In particular, the voice prompts for many new orders were connected together. This was a situation that only happened when several people placed orders at the same time.
Rui Yuchen quickly checked the platform and found that the number of orders for Fish-Catching Take-Out Store Number One was growing rapidly. Compared to the dinner time yesterday and the day before, it had increased by nearly forty percent!
Rui Yuchen was very surprised. "Business is good today!"
However, he was also very confused. What was wrong with everyone today? Why did they suddenly think of ordering Fish-Catching Take-Out?
In fact, many people in Jingzhou had ordered Fish-Catching Take-Out before, but they did not eat it every day. They would only order it once in a while to adjust their taste. Usually, they would also order other take-out.
Fish-Catching Take-Out might have many types of meals, but people would definitely get tired of eating it all the time.
Therefore, there were many users of Fish-Catching Take-Out in Jingzhou, and it was quite well-known. It was just that people did not order it often enough so it was difficult to break even.
However, looking at the current situation …
Rui Yuchen could not help but be pleasantly surprised. "If there are such orders every day, we will definitely be able to make money!
"Forget it, what am I thinking? How can there be such orders every day?
"That's not right. It's not a special day today. Why are so many people ordering Fish-Catching Take-Out?"
The more Rui Yuchen thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. He quickly checked the group chat of Fish-Catching Take-Out's branch managers.
Only then did he realize that the group was already flooded with messages!
"Look at this news!"
"[Link] Handong Province's' strictest garbage classification 'is being implemented!"
"[Link] It is imperative to cultivate the awareness of garbage classification."
"[Link] Guide garbage classification to become a new trend and a new habit!"
"It's already being implemented?"
"Yes, the solicitation of opinions has ended. It is now being implemented in Handong Province. Jingzhou is a key demonstration city."
"There are already some neighborhoods checking for garbage classification today. Garbage can no longer be thrown around."
"So fast? No wonder I was wondering why the orders today were exploding! "
"My orders are exploding too! An ordinary store in a third-tier city that doesn't have many customers all year round has more than ten orders today. I'm shocked! "
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I have to hurry to the kitchen."
Rui Yuchen quickly clicked on the links in the group and read the news. Only then did he realize why the orders were skyrocketing.
Handong Province was going to have garbage classification!
Every city had its own regulations for garbage classification, but it was obvious that Handong Province's garbage classification policy was the strictest in history. It was divided into four categories: kitchen waste, recyclable waste, harmful waste, and other waste.
Kitchen waste and recyclable waste could not be mixed!
Most of the plastic lunch boxes and plastic bags used in takeout packaging were all recyclable waste and had to be thrown into the blue trash can. Kitchen waste had to be 'broken' into the green trash can.
That meant that the leftovers in the takeout had to be thrown separately from the takeout lunch boxes and plastic bags!
Rui Yuchen could not help but slap the table as realization dawned on him. "I understand now!
"So that's what Boss Pei meant!
"If we consider the policy of garbage classification, then Boss Pei's series of measures is the best solution!"
"Opening Fish-Catching Take-Out's stores mainly in Handong Province, especially Jingzhou City, can maximize the needs of consumers under the conditions of garbage classification.
"If I followed my original idea and opened stores in other cities across the country, then the local demand for garbage classification in Handong Province would definitely not be able to be met!
"As for the Food Harmony brand, it is even more important to spread it in all stores. It can have two key effects:
"In addition to showing all diners the high-end brand of Fish-Catching Take-Out, it can also divide the demand. Those who want a more high-end experience can order Food Harmony, and those who don't care much about these can order ordinary Fish-Catching Take-Out.
"It's perfect!
"Could Boss Pei have heard the news long ago or predicted the trend?
