Chapter 326: Good Business
"The taro made by Uncle Zheng is really delicious."
Su Yujin was very satisfied with the meal and praised Zheng Mingyuan's cooking skills.
Zheng Mingyuan was so flattered that his face was full of smiles. "If you like it, I'll make it for you when I get better taro in the capital."
Speaking of taro, Zheng Mingyuan immediately became interested.
There are many ways to cook taro, such as taro cake, taro pancake, taro crisp, taro with sand, braised taro, steamed taro, home-cooked taro...
There are many varieties, each one is delicious and unforgettable.
The most important thing is that taro was the old boss’s favorite food, and the dish he approved of the most was the pork belly and taro stew. He thought that he put a lot of effort into making this dish and it was very delicious.
When he thought of his old boss, the light in Zheng Mingyuan's eyes dimmed visibly. After hesitating for a moment, he opened his mouth, but no sound came out and he closed it again.
Forget it, let’s not ask anymore.
It is not easy to open a new restaurant in the capital, but there is no need to ask where it is in the capital.
After all, no matter where he is, as long as he is there, he can reopen "Juweizhai" and restore the former glory that his old boss wants to see.
What he needs to think about now is how to organize the affairs in his kitchen so as to cooperate with Manager Wu to make the business excellent.
In addition, the menu is also extremely important.
Although the signature dishes of Juweizhai in the past could be considered classic and delicious, they had remained unchanged for many years. This was not attractive enough for diners, so they had to develop some new menu items.
Zheng Mingyuan was thinking about this in his mind, his eyes gradually became a little dazed and lifeless...
All these little movements were seen by Su Yujin.
Su Yujin knew what Zheng Mingyuan was thinking at the moment and did not say much. She just finished eating the remaining taro, wiped her mouth with a towel, and drank some tea prepared with mugwort.
Drinking a small amount of peach blossom tea can help relieve the internal heat caused by the dryness in winter.
The carriage drove slowly all the way and arrived in the capital city in the afternoon.
They were swaying all the way, making everyone feel drowsy.
Especially Zheng Mingyuan, because he was overworked in thinking about the menu in the morning, he even dozed off. It was not until the carriage stopped that he rubbed his eyes and asked, "Are we there?"
"We're here." Su Yujin got off the carriage first and helped lift the curtain. "Uncle Zheng, please come down quickly and take a look at our new shop."
Zheng Mingyuan got off the carriage.
When he saw the familiar streets, the familiar three-story buildings, and even the plaque above his head with the three big characters "Juweizhai" written on it, he was stunned.
"here……"
A guess arose in Zheng Mingyuan's mind, but he didn't dare to believe it was true. His eyes widened and his mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't utter any other words.
"Our branch, Juweizhai." Su Yujin said with a smile.
"What the boss means is..."
"I asked Shopkeeper Sun to come to the capital to buy it from the Hu family some time ago." Su Yujin explained with a smile, "Not only Juweizhai, but also the Hu family's house was bought, ready for Uncle Zheng, Shopkeeper Wu, and the employees of Juweizhai to live in in the future."
"From now on, Uncle Zheng will be in charge of the kitchen of Juweizhai."
After being stunned for a moment, Zheng Mingyuan couldn't help but have red eyes.
He returned to Juweizhai.
He was once again in charge of the kitchen at Juweizhai.
It can be said that it is exactly the same as before, the only difference is that the boss has changed.
No, if you look closely, the boss has not changed! Whether it is the former boss or the current boss, they are all people who can identify people and use them, have full trust in him, are sensible and kind-hearted.
God was really kind to him, allowing him to meet two such good bosses in his short life.
Zheng Mingyuan could no longer suppress his emotions. He held back the tears that were about to burst out and was about to kneel down in front of Su Yujin.
"Uncle Zheng, what is this doing?"
Su Yujin was shocked and hurriedly supported Zheng Mingyuan with Ai Cao beside her.
She thought Zheng Mingyuan would be very excited, but she didn't expect him to be so excited.
It seems that the status and weight of Juweizhai in Zheng Mingyuan's heart is far beyond her imagination.
But this is enough to show that her plan was absolutely correct.
"Thank you so much, boss." Zheng Mingyuan choked up and tears streamed down his face.
“If you really want to thank the boss, then Chef Zheng will do everything he can to make Juweizhai as prosperous as it used to be!” Wu Jiantong, who heard the noise and came to the door to see if it was Su Yujin and others, also reached out and supported Zheng Mingyuan when he saw this scene.
He even said, "This is the only way to repay the boss and make sure that the boss doesn't lose money on this deal, right?"
Zheng Mingyuan often jokes with others, and usually acts like he doesn't want strangers to approach him, has a bad temper, and is difficult to talk to. However, after long-term contact with him, Wu Jiantong knows that he is actually a very loyal person.
Buying Juweizhai and handing it over to Zheng Mingyuan to manage was something that touched his heart. At this moment, Zheng Mingyuan's emotions were like a flood that broke through a dam, and he needed to say this to divert his attention.
Wu Jiantong's words also aroused Zheng Mingyuan's fighting spirit.
Zheng Mingyuan reached out his hand to wipe away his tears, and suppressed his sobs at this moment, but he still ignored the obstruction and kowtowed to Su Yujin, "Thank you for your trust, and please rest assured, I will definitely take care of the kitchen of Juweizhai and not let you worry at all."
"I feel relieved with Uncle Zheng's words." Su Yujin smiled and helped Zheng Mingyuan up.
"It's not early yet. Chef Zheng, please come to the kitchen first to see how it is laid out. I have to get people to prepare the equipment and buy various things." Wu Jian said.
"Okay." Zheng Mingyuan agreed and followed Wu Jian to the back kitchen.
Su Yujin and Ai Cao also raised their feet and looked at the layout of Juweizhai.
The area of Juweizhai is much larger than Huibinlou, with three floors and a more spacious backyard. The overall layout is very spacious.
In the very prosperous Dongcheng District of Beijing, there are not many restaurants as large as Juweizhai. As long as they can be well managed, making money will definitely not be a problem.
Su Yujin was thinking about this, while Zheng Mingyuan and Wu Jiantong were thinking about some other details.
The division of cooking stoves and cutting areas, the order of serving dishes, the placement of various kitchen utensils and bowls, the selection of decorations for all the tables and chairs in the restaurant...
Seeing Zheng Mingyuan and Wu Jiantong discussing heatedly, Su Yujin felt that as the boss, he really couldn't get a word in. So, based on the principle of leaving professional matters to professionals, he handed all the work here over to the two of them.
He took Ai Cao for a walk on the street.
