Chapter 215 Lin Siqiao's Big Pie
Hearing the sound, it was a group of young girls. Wu Xuan leaned over to take a look downstairs.
"Manager Lin, it seems that all the employees are here."
"Let's go down and take a look."
Lin Siqiao packed up her things, and as they stepped onto the stairs, they heard the girls' slightly exaggerated voices.
"Come and take a look, this tree is so beautiful!"
"You know what, this combination of red and green looks really festive."
It was the first time for most of the girls to see a Christmas tree, especially one decorated so beautifully, so they were naturally very curious.
But everyone just watched obediently, and no one touched it.
"This is a foreign Christmas tree. I heard that foreigners like to put one at home during foreign festivals."
A girl who knew a little about it explained it to everyone with a smile.
"Put this on display?"
When the girls heard this, they all covered their mouths in disbelief. These foreign customs are really weird.
Not to mention putting up a tree at home during the New Year, it is really hard to understand why the tree is made to look better than a person.
A few of the older men did not go over to join in the fun.
Seeing Wu Xuan coming down from the stairs with a girl, he immediately stood up and greeted them.
The girls shrank their necks in fear when they heard the noise and quickly gathered around.
"Hello, Assistant Wu."
Wu Xuan had been responsible for their interviews, and everyone knew her, but this was the first time that Lin Siqiao and the others had met her.
For a moment, the employees looked at each other, and no one knew how to address her.
Seeing the confusion in everyone's eyes, Wu Xuan gave a brief introduction.
"This is Manager Lin, the person in charge of the embassy restaurant."
"Please welcome him with applause."
After hearing this, the girls applauded and their eyes almost widened.
They always thought that the restaurant manager had to be at least over 40 years old.
I didn't expect she's so young!
Feeling everyone's enthusiasm, Lin Siqiao did not feel restrained at all, but nodded to everyone gracefully.
Before coming here, Sister Wu had already explained everything that needed to be said, and Lin Siqiao didn't have much to say, so she just added a few points.
"First, everyone must get their attitude right."
"Second, speak up if you have something to say, and don't slander or frame each other behind their backs. If you are found out, you will be fired immediately and will never be hired again!"
"Third, in order to make everyone happy at work and earn money at the same time, the restaurant has set up a series of bonuses."
"For example, the Injustice Award, the Honesty Award, the Righteous Act Award, the Smiling Service Award, etc...."
The wages in the embassy district restaurants are several dollars higher than other places.
Now that they heard there was an extra bonus, everyone present was so excited that they wanted to jump for joy.
"Does anyone have any questions?"
"No more, Manager Lin!"
"Manager Lin, we will definitely work hard."
"That's right, we will never do anything that would damage the restaurant's honor and collective interests!"
"good."
Lin Siqiao nodded and took the employee's information from Wu Xuan.
In addition to hiring 12 waiters, the restaurant also hired several chefs.
Wu Xuan stepped forward and introduced them to her one by one.
"Manager Lin, this is Chef Liu who is in charge of making Western food."
"He was originally the head chef of the Sanbaole Western Restaurant in Xinqiao."
There is a saying that has been circulating in Beijing: Old Mo in the north and new immigrants in the south.
So there is no need to say much about Chef Liu’s level of Western food preparation.
These are veteran masters with decades of experience, so Lin Siqiao has nothing to worry about.
She has only one requirement for Western food, and that is that it must be authentic.
Assistant Wu does not need to introduce the chef who is responsible for improving Chinese food, as he is an old acquaintance of Lin Siqiao.
They had dealt with each other several times before in the Friendship Store.
Lin Siqiao was just a little surprised, "Master Zhang, I didn't expect Director Hu to be willing to transfer you here!"
"If you come over, what about the restaurant at the Friendship Store?"
Lin Siqiao was already very touched that Director Hu had such a heart.
She doesn't want this to affect the business of the Friendship Store.
Unexpectedly, Master Zhang laughed after hearing this.
"Manager Lin, don't worry. The current chef is my junior fellow apprentice. His skills are no worse than mine."
"That's good."
Lin Siqiao felt relieved after hearing this. The next two chefs were in charge of pastries and cocktails.
I don’t know where Director Hu found these masters, but each of them has more than ten years of work experience, and they are truly treasures.
This made Lin Siqiao full of expectations for the last master chef.
After looking around, she asked, "Who is the master in charge of the tea ceremony?"
After asking several times, no one answered. Just when Lin Siqiao was wondering why this person didn't come, there was a knock on the restaurant door.
The other person was wearing a washed-out Zhongshan suit. Although his face was thin, he still had a strong character.
"Excuse me, is this the restaurant in the embassy district?"
"Yes."
Lin Siqiao came forward and asked, "Are you the new tea art master?"
"Um."
The man nodded, his expression a little stiff, "Sorry, I'm late."
"It's okay, we just got here not long ago."
After Lin Siqiao told a white lie, he motioned for everyone to sit down first.
Now that everyone was present, Lin Siqiao directly arranged all the subsequent work.
From the layout of the restaurant to the training of the staff to the activities on the opening day, she explained everything very clearly.
Having said everything that needed to be said, Lin Siqiao also did not forget to paint a rosy picture for everyone.
"There is still one week until the official opening. Thank you all for your hard work during this period!"
"I believe that as long as we work together, the restaurant's business will get better and better."
“Do you have confidence?”
"have!"
"That's good, let's work hard together!"
"come on!!"
The employees who were a little worried about Lin Siqiao before because of his young age now have only one word in their minds.
Just do it!
The meeting was over, but everyone was still excited and asked Assistant Wu if he could find something for them to do.
Otherwise, you'll have nowhere to use all your energy!
Seeing this, Wu Xuan went out and made a phone call, asking the Friendship Store to deliver all the kitchen equipment and restaurant soft furnishings.
As soon as the things arrived, everyone divided into several groups, some moved things, and some cleaned the windows.
I worked from the afternoon until the evening.
It was already past four o'clock when Director Hu finished his work and came over. As soon as he entered the door, all the employees subconsciously shouted.
"Welcome"
The tone of voice frightened Director Hu so much that he immediately clenched the briefcase under his armpit.
Looking again, the employees showed off their big white teeth, and each smile on their face was brighter than the other.
"What's going on?"
"Director, this is what Manager Lin taught us. How about it? Doesn't it show that we are very enthusiastic?"
“…”
Although he was shocked, Director Hu couldn't ruin Lin Siqiao's plan.
"That's good. Next time, don't be so exaggerated. Be more natural."
"oh"
Everyone nodded and started a new round of practice.
Director Hu looked around and saw that when he left in the afternoon, the restaurant was still littered with debris.
In just half a day, the restaurant looked brand new.
You know what, with this small carpet, an oil painting hanging on the wall, and this retro table lamp, it feels really different.
Director Hu nodded with satisfaction.
Just when I was about to ask everyone where Lin Siqiao had gone, I saw Lin Siqiao waving at me from the second floor.
"Director Hu, please come up quickly!"
