Food Intelligence King

Chapter 173 Intelligence work requires trust the most.
the next day.

Business was as usual in the morning.

By noon, customers influenced by Teacher Li had begun to come to the restaurant to try the smaller portions of dishes.

Although there weren't many new guests today, their characteristics were very obvious.

He checked the store name and address on his phone, and even looked at the owner and waiters in the store.

The junior sister was very outgoing; she took the initiative to ask the other person:
"Are you looking for the shop that Teacher Li mentioned?"
-
"Yes, this is our store, right?"

The junior sister smiled and said, "That's right, it's our shop. Teacher Li came to try our steamed buns before when our boss was selling them. The small portions of dishes and steamed buns were quite good."

She's quite good at self-promotion.

After ordering a small portion of food, the customer also packed up some steamed buns from the restaurant.

However, Zhao Yilin greatly admired her senior brother's foresight.

The decision to rent the place next door was absolutely correct.

Although the new product category has only been launched for a short time, it will quickly develop into a mature business by riding the wave of online bloggers' store visits.

Renting the rental and sales center next door will be a natural next step.

Zhao Yilin suddenly felt:
This senior brother of mine, besides being an amazing cook, is also a master of a huge intelligence network.

It encompasses everything related to food and opening a shop.

"I've really found the right boss," Zhao Yilin thought to herself.

In the kitchen, Chen Zhou noticed his junior sister's thoughtful expression and sensed that she seemed a bit dazed.

I don't know what she is thinking.

Chen Zhou frowned.

Busy with the work at hand.

When business was over at noon, young Zhang Jing came to the community canteen to discuss renting a shop and finding a job.

Hou Wen and Aunt Zheng went home after get off work.

The junior colleague in charge of HR and administration stayed behind to help the boss with the reception.

The advantage of discussing job hunting and renting a shop together is that—

Zhang Jing directly provided the internal price from her rental and sales center:
"Brother Chen, the rent is four thousand a month, and it can be paid quarterly."

Chen Zhou remembered that two months ago, the intelligence report gave the bottom price for the rental and sales center, which was said to be 55,000 yuan per year.

He is currently renting his aunt's shop for 50,000 yuan a year, payable annually.

Zhang Jing's price and payment period this time are very reasonable.

After a quick mental assessment, Chen Zhou agreed immediately.

"Shall we go with this price and sign the contract today?"

Zhang Jing was somewhat surprised by Chen Zhou's quick answer.

"Brother Chen, you didn't even ask me to negotiate the price!"

Chen Zhou smiled and said, "I trust you."

The junior sister commented from the side, "In intelligence work, the most important thing is trust."

This is completely nonsensical. She's probably been watching too many novels and TV dramas. Chen Zhou had to quietly remind Employee Number One:
"It's a channel mix-up."

"Oh, okay." The junior sister nodded.

He then introduced the work and benefits at the store.

My junior colleague has been working for two or three months and has accumulated a lot of experience.

In short, a waiter's job is to be familiar with all the items in the store and know where to put them.

The things here,
This can refer to a customer's order. It requires knowing what the customer ordered and which table they want the food delivered to.

It can also refer to napkins, lunch boxes, plates, mops, rags, etc.

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhou realized that his summary was quite accurate.

He gave Zhao Yilin an approving look.

The junior colleague smiled and nodded, then continued to talk about the store's benefits, including salary, leave, employee meals, and working hours.

She gave a brief overview of each aspect.

Zhang Jing lived next door, so she knew some of the situation.

She herself is very eager to find a job.

Zhang Jing had previously told Chen Zhou about her personal situation.

Because this job at the rental and sales center was introduced by someone else, and I didn't complete the resignation process properly.

But if all the rental and sales centers are rented out,
Wouldn't that be a perfect opportunity for her to quit completely?

If you come to work at the community canteen, the work location will remain the same.

Afterwards, Zhang Jing recounted to everyone how she had negotiated with the leaders of the rental and sales center.

She highlighted her contributions before joining the company. "The heating fee was also paid, so it was practically a freebie," Zhang Jing secretly added.

Chen Zhou and his junior colleague were also very satisfied with their future colleague.

"Next comes signing the contracts. First the lease agreement, then the employment contract."

Zhang Jing said, "The lease agreement template is right on my desk."

She then pulled out another key and said with a smile, "The key to the rental and sales center is on me."

Chen Zhou stood up and looked at the two girls from left to right: "Let's go, let's go take a look."

"it is good!"

In the short time it took to leave the house, Chen Zhou and two employees returned to the rental and sales center.

The layout is symmetrical; this is information we already know.

The interior decoration is very simple.

They just painted the walls white.

The office furniture consisted only of a table and chair for Zhang Jing's use, and two sofas and a coffee table for entertaining clients.

Zhang Jing explained:
"Boss, the manager of the rental and sales center said that you can throw these things away if you want, he doesn't want them anymore. The same goes for the wall demolition, just restore it to its original state and repaint it white."

As she spoke, she pulled out a contract template from her desk drawer.

I picked up my pen and wrote all of this down.

It was only then that Zhang Jing understood what Zhao Yilin meant by intelligence work.

As she wrote down the detailed terms, she joked:
"Reporting to the organization, I have been undercover for quite some time now."

The junior sister looked at Chen Zhou: "I didn't switch channels, did I, senior brother!"

Chen Zhou laughed: "Okay, that's good."

Zhang Jing then whispered to the two of them:

"Anyway, I have the key. If you want to use it, just tell me quietly and I'll open the door for you. Quietly, okay?"

A young girl with a strong sense of stealth.

No wonder Tony liked her so much.

However, it's somewhat inappropriate to tamper with the rental center before actually renting it.

Chen Zhou thanked him politely.

We should wait until we officially rent the house before discussing other things.

The next thing Zhang Jing needs to help with is to get the contract stamped by the real estate company to make it valid.

And hurry up and get a physical exam and a health certificate.

Chen Zhou needs to transfer the rent payment over.

The junior colleague was observant and had previously reminded Chen Zhou that the community canteen could also have the official seal of a registered company made.

She had already taken care of it for me.

In short, with this, the rental issue is basically resolved.

A new waiter, the fourth employee of the community canteen, is about to start work.

Looking at the rental and sales center in front of him, Chen Zhou found a bit of the excitement he felt when the new store opened.

That evening, Chen Zhou briefly explained the store's affairs to his wife.

The proprietress never exercises decision-making power, but she fully enjoys the right to know.

At first, when Ms. Lin heard that her husband wanted to start a catering business, she thought it was very likely that he wouldn't succeed. But now, from setting up a stall to opening a shop, and then renting the shop next door.

She admired her husband a little.

But Ms. Lin wouldn't say.

She asked Chen Zhou what flavor he wanted to eat for breakfast the next morning.

"Mixed vegetables, or salad?"

Chen Zhou smiled.

"It's all pretty good."

"Hmm~"

Chen Taotao shook her head, trying to shake the thought of eating grass out of her mind.

She excitedly recounted the fun things that happened to her in kindergarten.

“Dad keeps telling me that she saw you on her phone.”

This likely refers to Chen Zhou's appearance on an online video.

To be honest, Chen Taotao's friend was lucky; Teacher Li didn't even get to try Chen Zhou's stir-fried dish.
