90s Hong Kong Little Chef

A 21st-century mainland woman inexplicably transmigrates to 1990s Hong Kong? If it were anyone else, they would surely be at a loss. But Ye Shuyi is not just anyone. Falsely accused and framed by h...

Chapter 13 Want to hire employees

Chen Nanfeng had no choice but to agree.

If he didn't agree, he didn't know where to find delicious food.

"It's a deal!" Ye Shuyi was afraid that he would go back on his word.

"Well, I'll bring a check tomorrow." Chen Nanfeng said.

"What does your family do?" Ye Shuyi was curious. How could an average family afford a million Hong Kong dollars?

That’s 12 million a year.

Ye Shuyi had no idea about the assets of the wealthy in Hong Kong at that time, and didn't know what level this was.

Chen Nanfeng thought for a while and said, "Become my personal chef, and I'll tell you what's going on."

"Forget it." Ye Shuyi instantly lost interest.

After dinner, Ye Shuyi went to help with some work and made an appointment with Chen Nanfeng for dinner.

There were two new customers in the store, one was fat with a big belly, and the other was tall and thin, as thin as a bamboo pole.

"Serve us your signature dishes." said Big Belly.

"Okay, wait a minute!" Ye Junhui picked up the menu and walked over.

"How about some choy sum? It's in season now! Our braised spareribs are pretty good, as well as barbecued pork and honey-glazed roast duck. The carp in black bean sauce is also very good. If there are two of you, how about some shredded squid with snow peas? How about that?" Ye Junhui gave a quick suggestion.

"Stop nagging me. Hurry up and just take a picture and tie it!" The thin man waved his hand impatiently.

"Okay, I'll be there right away."

Afterwards, he went to the kitchen to cook, and Ye Shuyi helped him, going out from time to time to see if the guests needed anything.

The dishes are served.

The fat man picked up the red barbecued pork with chopsticks and tasted it.

The thin man also pretended to be serious and took a bite of the honey-glazed roast duck.

Then the two looked at each other.

Ye Shuyi had a strange feeling, as if these two guests came from important backgrounds!

Nothing happened after all.

The tortoise jelly is served.

They tried again, looking odd.

"Boss, what would you like? Our dishes are pretty good, right?" Ye Shuyi asked the fat and thin couple with a smile while cleaning up the leftovers from the neighboring table.

Here you can address guests as "boss".

"Great, please pack up all these dishes and we'll eat them when we get back," the fat man ordered.

"No problem." Ye Shuyi picked up a disposable foam lunch box, packed the dishes one by one and packed them up.

After they left, Ye Junhui walked over to Ye Shuyi and whispered, "Shuyi, do you think something's wrong with them? Are they going to frame us like they did last time?"

"Probably not. I think most of our colleagues saw that our business was good, so they came to study it." Ye Shuyi hung the washed tablecloth on the edge of the table to dry.

"Oh...that's good." As long as you don't cause trouble, everything will be fine.

Now is the time when there are fewer customers and it is not too busy, so they can chat occasionally.

There is something Ye Shuyi has wanted to say for a long time.

"Dad, I want to discuss something with you." She pulled out a chair and asked Dad to sit down.

"Tell me, what's the story?" Ye Junhui asked curiously.

"Why don't we hire two employees so that they don't have to work so hard?" Ye Shuyi didn't want her father to be so tired.

Ye Junhui was a little surprised.

"I think I can barely handle it. Shuyi, are you tired? Well, business has been good these past two days, and you haven't tried this intensity before..." It's really inconsiderate.

"If I recruit people, I have to consider the salary. How much is a good salary?" Ye Junhui began to think.

"It's best to find someone who is willing to learn. I hope he can be the chef and learn the new dishes I make." Ye Shuyi expressed her hopes for her employees.

This surprised Ye Junhui. Ye Shuyi’s cooking was so delicious that she was willing to teach others.

Even he himself was embarrassed to look at it too seriously, for fear that his daughter would mind.

"Really? This is our signature dish... Aren't you afraid he'll learn how to cook for other restaurants?"

"Well, as long as we make him feel that our restaurant has a better future!" Ye Shuyi gave a solution.

“But…” Ye Ji Gourmet is just a small business, not as good as a big hotel.

He felt that his daughter's cooking skills were good enough for her to be a chef in a high-end hotel.

"Dad, it's a deal! Can we start recruiting people tomorrow?" Ye Shuyi asked.

"Whatever you say, whatever you say." Ye Junhui felt that his daughter must have her own way.

At dinner time, Ye Shuyi had already packed Young Master Chen's food into a basket and was waiting for someone to arrive.

However, Chen Nanfeng did not come. Instead, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes came.

He has an extraordinary temperament and feels like a senior butler of an aristocratic manor.

"Hello, are you Miss Ye?" He saw a young and beautiful girl busying around, so he walked up to her and said.

"Yes, may I ask who you are?" Ye Shuyi didn't know him.

"I'm here to get food for Master Chen Nanfeng. Just give me the food."

"Oh, here you go."

"Miss Ye, are you sure the food is safe and non-toxic? Because our young master is in a delicate state and nothing can go wrong."

"Does your young master have any food restrictions? Are there any foods he is allergic to?" Ye Shuyi asked.

She didn't ask about this in detail today, which was really an oversight.

"Our young master doesn't eat anything." The butler said very seriously.

“???” Ye Shuyi had a question mark face.

So what? What should I do with her?

"Yeah. You give it to him first."

Let him decide for himself whether to eat it or not. If something happens after eating it, Ye Shuyi will be held responsible, and Chen Nanfeng will also be at fault for not explaining it clearly.

Generally speaking, there is no problem with the food cooked by Ye Shuyi.

This time she made steamed pork patties with preserved vegetables, cola chicken wings, stuffed eggplant with braised sauce, sweet potato leaves with garlic sauce, and water spinach with fermented bean curd.

These are all appetizing and delicious home-cooked meals that are healthy and not greasy.

"Okay, I'll tell him." The housekeeper left after saying this, and then came back.

"Ms. Ye, I heard that adding that stuff can make people addicted. I hope you won't."

Ye Shuyi: “…”

"Which one?"

"It's an addictive contraband. Miss Ye, do you understand what I mean?"

Oh, I see.

Before Ye Shuyi came to this world, she had heard a piece of news.

There was an old man who was very fond of noodles from a certain restaurant. He thought the taste was just average, but he wanted to eat it every day.

If I don’t eat for a day, I will feel uncomfortable all over.

So, he thought there was something wrong with the store and called the police.

When the police arrived, they found out that the store had added an addictive drug that was popular in a certain triangle.

It is not clearly stated here.

The old man also received a reward for reporting the incident.

As soon as this incident came out, some people secretly tested their favorite foods and came to a ridiculous conclusion - there was nothing, it was just that they were too greedy.

"Don't worry, I don't need this kind of thing. I can still attract people's stomachs." Ye Shuyi was full of confidence.

"Miss Ye, if you can cure the anorexia that has troubled the young master for twenty-six years, you will be a great benefactor to our Chen family, and you will be able to rule Hong Kong Island in the future." The housekeeper said meaningfully.

"Oh? Chen family, which Chen family are you from?" Ye Shuyi was curious and wanted to ask some questions.

"It's getting late. I can't let the young master wait until he gets hungry. I'm leaving first." The butler did not answer and said goodbye quickly.

He thought to himself, if you knew this, you would be scared to death!

Hong Kong Island's premier Chen family! There's nothing else like it!
