Chapter 50 Hot Pot Restaurant Opening
"Yiming Jingsui" and "Shengjing Yiwei" opened on the same day.
Cheng Shuyi was busy in Shengjing today.
She hired a shopkeeper and two waiters to run the firecracker shop.
The hot pot restaurant needs more manpower.
The cook, handyman, waiter, and accountant of the store came early in the morning.
The store opens at noon, but they have to come to the store early to prepare.
Cheng Shuyi needs to supervise the processing of ingredients in the kitchen, which is one of the characteristics of their restaurant.
The opening time is approaching.
The worker in the kitchen who was cutting vegetables was swinging his knife so hard that sparks flew.
Cheng Shuyi converted the entire backyard of the shop into a kitchen.
The left side is a warehouse for storing ingredients, the right side is for cooking, and in the middle are two rows of cutting and washing lines.
There are several freezers against the wall where the ingredients are stored.
In the cabinet, the bottom layer is ice, and on top are beef, mutton, fish, seafood and other ingredients that need to be kept fresh.
Other fruits and vegetables are placed on the shelves.
Take it as you need it.
Lin Ye, the shopkeeper in charge of the front hall, came to the kitchen and said, "Boss, it's time. The guests outside are waiting. Shall we welcome them now?"
The long table in the middle, which is responsible for cutting, washing and plating, is already piled with cut and washed ingredients.
Cheng Shuyi thought that since the store had just opened, there wouldn't be too many customers.
So he asked Lin Ye to open the door and welcome the guests.
But after a dazzling fireworks display last night, the people of Shengjing City once again saw Cheng Shuyi's strength.
'Shengjing Yiwei' is the new thing after RT-Mart, ice delivery, and grand fireworks.
Everyone wants to know what new tricks Cheng Shuyi can come up with in the restaurant.
Shengjing City is not short of money, what it lacks is novelty.
Cheng Shuyi knew that the Shen family and the Lin family would come today and would arrive as soon as possible.
She gave some encouragement to the kitchen staff and went to the front hall.
As soon as he entered the front hall, Cheng Shuyi was shocked by the crowds of people in the store.
There are four rows of booths on the first floor.
The two rows of booths against the wall are large tables, each with six seats.
The two rows in the middle are tables for four.
There are thirty tables in total.
There are thirty tables, and more than twenty of them are already occupied, with only a few left.
The second floor is a small room separated by a screen, with seats along the window. One small room can seat ten people and has two pots.
Of course, with an extra pot, the meal will be hotter.
Therefore, each small room on the second floor has a separate freezer to ensure sufficient cooling.
"Sir, we have a small dining room on the second floor with its own refrigerator and air conditioner. We charge two cents for the table. Would you like to use it?"
There were too many customers and the front desk staff was overwhelmed.
Lin Ye went to help and explain the store's specifications to the customers.
Cheng Shuyi posted menus on the bulletin board and at the store entrance, clearly marking the prices so that everyone knows how much they pay.
"Lead the way."
It turns out that they are all people who are not short of money.
The Shen family and the Lin family came together.
Cheng Shuyi had sharp eyes and spotted two young couples in the crowd.
"Sister Zhou, Sister Yu, here..."
The store's layout and special tables and chairs make everyone who enters the store confused and curious.
They had never seen a hole in the middle of a table.
I've never seen chairs connected back to back.
When you are stunned, you will inevitably stop and stand still.
Fortunately, the waiter Cheng Shuyi had been trained. They reminded the customers to take their seats with a smile, and then directly handed the flyer-style menu to the customers to order.
"Sister, I can already smell it and my mouth is watering."
Lin Yu couldn't wait.
The smell of hot pot base and spicy crayfish continued to waft from the kitchen.
Not only Lin Yu, but other guests were also so attracted by the delicious taste that their mouths were watering and they couldn't stop eating.
The food smells so good even before it's served.
I don’t know how delicious it would be!
Cheng Shuyi took the four people to the second floor and reserved a seat for them facing the moat.
"My two lords and sisters, please take a seat. Here is the menu. Please take a look first."
There is a door at the upstairs position on the second floor.
This is done to ensure that there is sufficient air conditioning on the first and second floors.
Cheng Shuyi walked to the window and opened it halfway. What came into view was a clear moat and the White Horse Academy on the opposite bank.
"The academy is almost over, right?" She turned around and asked the four of them, "Should we wait for Chang'er and Yan'er to arrive before serving the food?"
Qiqi and Xuxu will also come to the store for lunch in a while.
Shen Ting said gently: "Then wait."
"Then I'll go get you some snacks and fruits. You can fill your stomachs first."
"Sister, you are so busy, you don't have to take care of us!"
Lin Yu said cheerfully, "Just now when I went upstairs, I saw a table outside with some cut fruit on it. Is that edible?"
Cheng Shuyi nodded: "Yes, that's the condiment table."
There is a condiment station on the first and second floors.
There are various seasonings on one side of the condiment table and cut and washed fruits on the other side. You can take what you like.
"Then we can go by ourselves." Lin Yu pulled Shen Zhou out together, "Sister Zhou, let's go!"
Since she was not needed upstairs, Cheng Shuyi came down.
As soon as she got down, she ran into Qin Yan, the young master of Hui'an Bank.
"Mr. Qin, welcome." Cheng Shuyi raised his eyebrows, his tone teasing.
She had met Qin Yan once.
Last time at Hui'an Bank, when she told the accountant that she wanted to open an account to deposit money, he laughed at her on the spot.
Qin Yan swore that his joke was really not malicious.
I just find it very strange.
In the Great Sheng Dynasty, there were still people who didn't know that women were not allowed to open accounts and deposit money.
So he couldn't help but smile.
Unexpectedly, she found out and glared at him fiercely.
"Boss Cheng, I was wrong about what happened last time. I apologize to you again. I hope you will be magnanimous."
Qin Yan was not a playboy, he was a serious and capable businessman.
Although he looks cynical in daily life, He Guangzhi's evaluation of him is: a ruthless person.
Hui'an Banknote Exchange was the largest banknote exchange in the Great Sheng Dynasty.
Holding huge amounts of cash!
The court's disaster relief silver was sent through the Hui'an Banknote Exchange. Other small banknote exchanges simply could not come up with so much cash.
Cheng Shuyi actually didn't want to argue with Qin Yan.
Moreover, she is a businesswoman, so even if she cannot open an account to deposit money, she still has to establish a good relationship with the bank.
"I'm just kidding. As soon as you walk in, you're a guest. Master Qin, please go upstairs."
Cheng Shuyi personally led him to his seat.
Qin Yan followed her and started to settle the account.
"Shengjing Yiwei has twenty freezers downstairs and twelve small rooms upstairs, one in each room."
"Thirty-two freezers, each with four blocks of ice, that's two hundred and fifty-six taels a day."
“Tsk tsk…”
Qin Yan's mansion also bought ice from Cheng Shuyi, and he was very jealous of this account.
"It's a shame that Boss Cheng can't settle accounts at Hui'an Bank."
He felt sorry for himself.
Cheng Shuyi's business was so big that his several shops had daily turnover of several thousand taels.
He really wants to get a share of the profit!
"Master Qin, are you coveting my account?"
Cheng Shuyi half-jokingly said, "Don't worry, this is just a minor incident. It won't be too late for Master Qin to become envious later."
She still has Qulou and Zhulou to open.
