Siheyuan: Started from a blind date and being cut off

Chapter 283 It’s impossible without He Yuzhu

Yan Jiecheng's offer of having sex for free made Yan Bugui a little tempted.

Being able to buy the food in the restaurant for free means that the family does not have to open the fire every day, and the food expenses are saved. The salary earned is a net profit, which is good.

"You are going to open a new restaurant and face many difficulties at the beginning. It is our duty as parents to help our sons and daughters-in-law.

Well, I won't go and let your mother help you!

I have to tell you first, don't take advantage of your mother, don't let your mother bring back the leftovers from the guests, we want the dishes that the guests haven't eaten."

Yanbu Gui immediately changed his mind when he saw that there was something to be gained and said that he could ask the third aunt to go to the restaurant to help, but he would not go there himself.

He considers himself a man of culture, but he found it very boring to serve tea and water to the guests in the restaurant last time.

He feels that he has a lot of talent. Wouldn't doing such a job bury his talent?

In addition, after the hotel business stabilizes, Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li will definitely find new ways to make things difficult for him and drive him away. How boring will it be?

It will be fine if the third aunt goes alone.

"Mom is the only one here to help? What about you, the old man? You have nothing to do at home, so why don't you come and help?"

Yan Jiecheng suddenly felt that he had suffered a huge loss.

The little abacus in his heart was making calculations.

Yan Bugui and the third aunt came to the restaurant to help, and brought meals for two people every day.

The third aunt came to the restaurant alone to help, and she brought meals for two people every day. In this way, he lost a little bit.

Yu Li and Yan Jie have been married for more than ten years and have a tacit understanding.

Even Yan Jiecheng could calculate the loss, and she also considered the loss, and immediately said: "Yes, now that mom is here to help, dad, it's so boring for you to stay at home alone! Just come and help, and the salary will be

I won’t give you less.”

Yan Bugui refused: "It's enough for your mother to go alone, so I won't go.

Don't push me anymore. If you push me again, I will ask your mother to stay at home with me, and we won't go anywhere."

Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li knew that the third aunt obeyed Yan Bu's advice.

As long as Yan Bugui doesn't let Third Aunt go to work in the restaurant, Third Aunt will definitely be obedient.

So Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li accepted it as soon as they got along. Yan Jiecheng reassured and said: "Okay, okay, mom will help me alone, one person is enough."

Yan Bugui is unwilling to leave the mountain, so it would be good to find a cheap worker in the third aunt.

As for the third aunt bringing two meals home, Yan Jiecheng had a way to avoid losing money.

The old hotel's reputation and signboard have already been built, and demand exceeds supply every day. Many customers who want to eat can't wait in line.

When he opens a new restaurant at this time, he will put out a sign that the taste of the original staff of the old hotel remains unchanged, and he will definitely attract some customers.

The more guests there are, the more dishes will be served. When the guests' dishes are served, a little more will be deducted. Wouldn't Yan Bugui and the third aunt have their share of the food?

If you calculate it this way, it is the hotel's customers who suffer the loss, and it is not Yan Jiecheng. He can completely accept it.

"That's it, it's settled, you will come to the hotel to work tomorrow."

After discussing with Yan Bugui, Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li left.

Yan Bugui turned on the TV and hummed a tune while watching it. He was very happy. He felt that he was smart and had taken advantage again.

…

Some time passed, and the restaurant business of Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li was very good.

After all, with the name of the original staff of the old hotel, many customers who don't want to queue in the old hotel come here to patronize it.

However, problems soon emerged.

After the dishes were served, a table of guests called Yu Li over.

"Guests, what's wrong? Is our food not to your liking or something else?

We are the same team, the people in the kitchen have not been changed, and the taste is exactly the same as in the old store."

Yu Li immediately explained.

The customer said: "I can tell that your chef has not changed. He is the old chef from the old restaurant."

I saw that there were too many customers at your old store and it was difficult to queue up, so I came to the new store to help.

It's just that I discovered a problem, why is the portion of your new store not as substantial as that of the old store?"

Yu Li glanced at the dishes, feeling embarrassed inside.

She and Yan Jiecheng are stingy, and He Yuzhu and the third aunt have to bring uneaten meals to the guests every day. In order to save costs, don't they have to take it from the guests' plates?

Then the current situation occurred, and customers reported that the portions of the dishes had become smaller.

Yu Li pretended to be stupid and said: "No, right? Our place is exactly the same as the one in the old store. There is no saying that the portion has become smaller. Maybe it's your illusion?"

The guest brought his friends here today and was too lazy to argue with Yu Li about this matter.

He could clearly feel that the portion of the dish was a little less, but fortunately the taste was still very good, so he didn't bother with Yu Li and let Yu Li go about her business.

Although he didn't break up with Yu Li, he didn't have much favorable impression of this store anymore.

As long as there is an old store where there is no difficulty in queuing, he will definitely choose the old store first.

Many times, reputation is ruined step by step in this way.

There were many people who had the same idea as this guest, but Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li were still immersed in the joy of making a lot of money, completely unaware that their stingy calculation had turned into a crisis.

Once something goes wrong in the hotel, the crisis will quickly erupt.

…

A month has passed, and there are quite a few guests coming to Yan Jiecheng's restaurant for dinner. After all, He Yuzhu's craftsmanship is there.

However, more and more customers complained about the smaller portions of the dishes. Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li sensed a sense of crisis and felt that this problem must be solved.

If this problem is not solved, I am afraid that customers will slowly be lost.

Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li's method of solving the problem is very strange. They are not willing to pay more to let He Yuzhu speculate more. As long as He Yuzhu speculates more, even if He Yuzhu and the third aunt deduct part of it, they can still maintain a normal weight.

However, Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li would never do this. They didn't want to lose even a penny.

So Yan Jie and Yu Li worked together and came up with a solution to the problem, which was to start with He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu brings home the most dishes every day and earns the highest salary. The rest of the kitchen staff can't even catch up with He Yuzhu's salary plus one yuan.

So after work that day, Yu Li stayed with another chef and wanted to talk to him.

"I asked you to stare at Sha Zhu and learn his craftsmanship. You are a professional chef yourself. After staring at Sha Zhu for a month, you must be able to tell some tricks, right?"

Yu Li asked the chef.

The chef replied with some sourness: "I have learned what Silly Zhu did a long time ago. Now, am I not the only one cooking all the dishes in the kitchen?"

It’s me who chops the vegetables and cooks them. Silly Zhu doesn’t do anything all day long except holding a teapot and giving advice.”

This chef is a little jealous of He Yuzhu.

He obviously does much more work than He Yuzhu, so why does He Yuzhu get a salary several times more than him?

He is not convinced, he thinks it is okay for him to have sex with her.

Yu Li often went to the kitchen to look. Every time she entered the kitchen, she did see He Yuzhu sitting there drinking tea and not doing much work.

"Let me ask you, if Silhu is gone now, can you make those dishes by yourself?"

Yu Li asked again.

The chef didn't hesitate and answered immediately: "There's no problem. I basically cook all the dishes now. Silly Zhu just hangs around every day and doesn't do anything. It's the same with or without him."

Same."

Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng were overjoyed when they received the chef's affirmative reply.

Yan Jiecheng said to the chef: "Starting from next month, your salary will increase to one thousand yuan, and you must work hard.

If you can keep the taste of the dishes unchanged after Si Zhu leaves, I will give you an increase to one thousand and fifty."

The chef was extremely happy. He had been envious of He Yuzhu for so long, and his salary was considered to have increased.

As for He Yuzhu, he actually wants to get out. There is nothing better than this.

…

The next afternoon, when it was time to get off work, Yan Jiecheng came to the kitchen and found He Yuzhu who was drinking tea. He paid He Yuzhu today's salary and an additional two hundred yuan.

"Yan Jiecheng, why are you suddenly so generous today? My daily salary is more than 80 yuan, why did you give me 280 yuan?"

He Yuzhu looked at the money in his hand and felt a little strange.

Yan Jiecheng said with a smile on his face: "Silly Zhu, we are a small business and you are too expensive.

Our small place cannot afford to support a giant Buddha like yours, so..."

The words were spoken so plainly that He Yuzhu understood clearly.

It turned out that Yan Jiecheng wanted him to get out, maybe because he was afraid that he would cause trouble, so he gave him an extra 200 yuan.

"Yan Jiecheng, your boy and the third uncle are really carved from the same mold, you are really good at it.

I've only been working for a little over a month, so you're going to fire me after attracting customers, right? You're really good at scheming.

They actually gave me an extra two hundred dollars, because they wanted to tell me that if I didn't make a fuss, I would get an extra two hundred dollars, but if I made a fuss, I wouldn't have the two hundred dollars, right?

Do you know what the consequences will be if you do this?"

He Yuzhu was a little annoyed and felt like he was being tricked.

Yan Jiecheng was so frightened by He Yuzhu that he took a few steps back and said, "Silly Zhu, please don't mess around, I'm telling you. Now is a legal society, you can't do anything like before.

In the past, if you hit someone, the most they could do was hold a hospital-wide meeting to criticize you and ask you to pay some money. The punishment was neither itchy nor painful.

If you take action now, you will have to go to the police station and stay there for ten and a half months, you know? It won't do you any good if you take action, so let's just get together and go away. I'll give you an extra two hundred yuan, which is enough for me."

He Yuzhu sneered and said: "Take your heart back in your stomach and see how scared you are. Did I say I was going to do something?"

Since you have done this, I have nothing more to say. I hope you won’t regret it in the future and don’t come back to beg me one day.”

He Yuzhu left directly.

Yan Jiecheng breathed a sigh of relief, chased after He Yuzhu and muttered: "Just be patient, I will never regret it, let alone beg you."

He Yuzhu was driven away without causing any trouble, and Yan Jiecheng was extremely happy.

There is no need to hire He Yuzhu, and another 2,500 yuan is saved every month.

Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li's shrewd calculation soon came to fruition.

The next day, the guests in the restaurant got angry directly. When Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li came in, they scolded them: "Do you want to open your business? I have tolerated the smaller portions of the dishes, and now the chef has been changed, and the dishes are cooked

You can’t even eat it.”

Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li were both dumbfounded.

Didn't we agree that even if He Yuzhu is gone, the taste of the food will not change? Why did something go wrong?

Yu Li said with an embarrassed look: "No, the chef in our restaurant has always been the same person, there has never been any change."

"Do you think my mouth grew in vain? I can tell with just one taste whether you have changed the chef or not.

I'm leaving this behind. If you hadn't changed the chef, I would have eaten this plate."

With that said, the guest turned over the plate and placed the dishes on the table.

The situation of the guests at other tables was similar. They all reported that the taste of the dishes had changed, and some even asked Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li to refund their money.

In order not to destroy the sign, Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li had no choice but to refund the money and send today's guests away.

After dealing with the guests, Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li went to the back kitchen to find the chef.

Yan Jiecheng said angrily: "Didn't you say that it would be the same without Sha Zhu? Didn't you usually do all the cooking for He Yuzhu by yourself?"

Why do you usually have no problems if you do it alone, but today there is a big problem without He Yuzhu?"

Yan Jiecheng felt like he had been deceived.

The chef was also confused. He was actually cooking alone, so he was given the illusion that he could do it.

He thought about it and said, "I usually chop and cook vegetables. That's right. It's a matter of seasoning."

Shazhu usually buys all the seasonings in the kitchen by himself. He comes to work every morning with a day's worth of seasonings.

He didn't come to work today and didn't bring any condiments, so I can't make the usual taste."

Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li finally understood after hearing this. It turned out that He Yuzhu was not stupid.

The secret to making the dishes so delicious lies in the spices, and the secret of the spices lies in his hands alone.

This is He Yuzhu's ability to eat. No matter how stupid He Yuzhu is, others will not easily imitate his ability to eat.

"No wonder Silly Zhu said when he left yesterday that I would definitely regret it or that I would beg him. It turned out that he had a hidden agenda."

Yan Jiecheng complained endlessly, without He Yuzhu, this hotel really couldn't open.

But he had already offended He Yuzhu to death. He made such an ugly scene yesterday. How shameless would he be if he went back to beg He Yuzhu now?

"Okay, forget about face. Which is more important, face or money? We invested in this hotel and it has only been open for more than a month, and we haven't even made back the money.

If it continues like today, will the business be able to continue? Please invite Shazhu back as soon as possible.

Without Silly Pillar, our restaurant business will be out of business before long."

Yu Li fired the lying chef, and then dragged Yan Jiecheng back to the courtyard to ask He Yuzhu to go back to work.
