Chapter 47 I Want to Marry My Master's Wife (First Order)
Zheng Mingyuan said very proudly, "The shopkeeper is just waiting to taste the food, and then we can open the restaurant and count the money!"
Be confident! For a chef, cooking skills are one thing, but confidence is also very important.
Believe in your own skills, and your movements will be more smooth when cooking, and you will have a more precise control over seasoning and heat.
Su Yujin smiled with her lips pursed.
After talking for a while, Su Yujin was busy selecting some murals and other decorations to hang in the private rooms and the lobby on the first floor, so she said goodbye.
Zheng Mingyuan called Zeng Dayong to deliver it, and also asked Zeng Dayong to buy half a basket of tofu, preparing to try cooking in the afternoon.
Zeng Dayong came back quickly, covered the small half basket of tofu with a cage cloth and placed it in the kitchen to prevent wild cats from stealing it. He even found a lid to cover it.
Seeing Zheng Mingyuan distinguishing the various seasonings, he hesitated for a moment and then moved closer, "Master, are you really going to be the chef in Miss Su's restaurant?"
"The document has been signed, how can it be fake?" Zheng Mingyuan picked out the seasonings he would use later and prepared to grind them into powder. Seeing Zeng Dayong's hesitation, he glanced at him and said, "Why, you don't want to work under Miss Su?"
"No, no, no, Miss Su is a good cook and she knows how to run a business. I've heard about her these days and she treats her people and employees very well. She's a good boss."
"only……"
Zeng Dayong paused for a moment, "Master, have you forgotten what happened before? Master cannot open a restaurant."
Otherwise, he would not have started the business of selling thirteen spices when he first arrived in Qinghe County.
“I haven’t forgotten.” Zheng Mingyuan waved his hand. “So I didn’t open a restaurant. I’m not the owner. I’m just a cook. No one told me before that I can’t be a cook.”
Zeng Dayong, "..."
"It seems like that's the case?" Zeng Dayong scratched his head, but he was not at ease. "But what if they come to our house and make trouble?"
Those people are not good people.
"If they want to come, then they can come. If they really don't want to give us a chance to live, then I am not afraid of completely breaking off relations with them. When the time comes, I will expose their true colors and they won't be able to live a peaceful life!"
Zheng Mingyuan's voice slowed down a bit. "You don't have to worry. They have bags full of silver now. They don't want to mess with a hedgehog like me. They are also afraid of getting hurt, which would be more trouble than gain."
"You should think carefully about how to make these dishes, and how to help the shopkeeper to take care of the kitchen. I think our shopkeeper is pretty good, so it shouldn't be bad to follow him."
"When I make more money, I will buy you a house and find you a good marriage..."
Zeng Dayong, "..."
How did he end up talking about himself? Zeng Dayong squinted his eyes, "Master, are you really thinking of finding a marriage for me? Isn't it that Master wants to marry a master's wife?"
Zheng Mingyuan's face suddenly turned red, and he threw the cinnamon in his hand at Zeng Dayong's forehead, "Little bastard, which eye of yours saw that I had this idea?"
I can see your face is red as a monkey's butt. If you say you don't mean it, no one will believe you! The shop was decorated differently almost every day. In just a few days, it looked like a restaurant.
The basic carpentry work has been completed. The next step is to apply tung oil to keep the wood dry, insect-free and shiny.
In addition to being busy with Su's business these days, Ai Cao and others have spent most of their free time helping to sew some soft items, such as curtains for the restaurant, curtains to block out the sun, and so on.
Su Yujin was worried about the name of the restaurant.
There is more than one restaurant in Qinghe County, but there are three that have good business, are large in scale, and are relatively well-known, namely Fuyun Restaurant, Jun Youlai, and Mingyuxuan.
The name needs to be catchy and have a certain meaning...
Su Yujin's head hurt from thinking so much that she picked up a book to read while basking in the sun in the yard.
It was a sunny day in winter, without a trace of wind. The scorching sun gave people a feeling of the warmth of spring, but it made Su Yujin a little sleepy.
But just as I was squinting my eyes and about to fall asleep, I heard a series of footsteps outside the wall.
Su Yujin opened her eyes vigilantly, and when she heard the footsteps fade away, she closed her eyes again, shrank her neck, and buried half of her face in the blanket.
The sound of footsteps was heard again outside the wall, back and forth.
Su Yujin suddenly lost her sleepiness and called out to Ai Cao, who was washing clothes, "What's going on outside?"
"I'll go take a look." Ai Cao put down the work in her hands and went out for a long time. When she came back, she smiled and said, "It seems that the farm west of the county town is looking for a few capable laundry women. Ask around to see who can do a clean job."
"The noise outside just now seems to be that Aunt Gui led those people to look for Aunt Liao. It is said that Aunt Liao is looking for a laundry job recently. She does a good job and keeps the house clean inside and outside."
Liao is very fond of cleanliness.
Su Yujin narrowed her eyes.
Here, Gui was leading people into Liao's house and introducing them to the head of the group, who looked like a housekeeper, "Sister Liao is very reliable and can definitely do a good job of washing."
"Look at this yard. There's not a speck of dust on the door panels, the walls, and the window frames. If they can do this kind of work so well, do you think they can do a simple job like laundry well?"
The leader looked it over and saw that even the door nose was cleaned and the door knocker was polished to a sparkling shine. He couldn't help but nod, "It's really good."
"I'm not bragging here. You won't find someone like Miss Liao anywhere else." Gui's face was full of smiles.
"Okay, then let's hire Aunt Liao." The man nodded. "Go to our place and do the laundry work. Get up early every morning and come back at night. There's a car to take you back and forth. The monthly salary is 500 coins, and you can rest for two days a month."
"Our master and mistress are both open-minded people. They don't like to procrastinate or change people every few days, so we thought of paying four months' wages directly to reserve the person without too much trouble."
As he spoke, the man took out some silver and said, "The wages for these four months are two taels of silver. I don't have much change here. Can you give me some change?"
"I'll go get the scale and change." Seeing that the other party was quite generous, Liao smiled and went into the house to get the scale to weigh the silver given by the man.
"The total is four taels and five cents of silver. These pieces of silver I have are exactly two taels and five cents. Here's the change." Liao handed over the silver in her hand.
