Chapter 210: Lottery Hiring
After arriving at the shop, everyone went straight to the kitchen and started working together to make today's pastries.
Mu: "What should I do? Just tell me what to do."
Xu Zhiyi: "Aunt Mu, please help me beat the egg cream. I made a few tools for beating the egg cream. Just keep beating it in circles until it becomes thick white. If you get tired, you can stop and rest for a while."
Shen Wuyou, who was beating the egg cream at the side, looked at Mu and said, "Aunt Mu, just follow me and learn."
Upon hearing this, Mu nodded, took a basin of divided egg white liquid from Shen Changan and started working.
After Shen Changan divided the egg liquid, he brought the milk over and started kneading the dough.
Although the Mu family joined today, everyone was still very busy. Su Jilou sold another thousand today, and the store sold more than four hundred.
Well, although it is a bit harder, I earn a lot!
When I was about to go to another shop after cleaning, Luo Jinqiu and her daughter came over first!
"Sister Zhiyi, the shop is almost done today."
Xu Zhiyi: "I was just about to close the shop and come over to look for you guys."
As he spoke, he took out four drawings from his sleeve pocket and handed them to Luo Jinqiu: "Aunt Luo, take a look, these are the clothing designs I drew. Are you sure you can make something like this?"
Hearing this, Luo Jinqiu took it and was amazed at the first sight. He said excitedly, "Zhiyi, these designs are so beautiful. How did you come up with them?"
"Although it's a bit complicated, with my needlework skills, I can still make it after spending some time."
Xu Zhiyi: "This is also an idea that came to me on a whim. Aunt Luo, now that the shop is ready, you can go to the cloth shop and buy some cloth. When our shop is stable, we can negotiate the price of cloth for long-term cooperation with the cloth shop."
Luo Jinqiu: "Okay, then I'll start paying attention to the embroiderer tomorrow."
"Okay, let's hire five embroiderers first! We'll see how the bookings are when the store opens and then decide whether to hire more."
"good"
After Mu returned to the village, the news that she was working in Xu Zhiyi's shop spread throughout Cuilin Village. Some people heard that they might need more people, so they all came to visit Xu's house.
"Miss Xu, I work very efficiently and can endure hardships. Do you think I can do it?"
"And me, I'm strong, so I can do all the heavy work."
Wu: "I know everything they said!!"
Ma: "What Wu and others can do, I can do even better"
Xu Zhiyi looked at the people who were talking around him and said loudly: "Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me."
Everyone stopped when they heard this.
"I'm just a small shop, I can't possibly need so many people, but I do need two more people. You all stand in a row, I'll screen them one by one, and the last two people left can come to work in my shop."
After the villagers lined up, Xu Zhiyi went over to check their personal hygiene one by one. After one round, only ten people passed.
When Xu Zhiyi observed the fingernails of those who were eliminated, they knew why they failed. Although they were a little unhappy, no one said anything else.
Among the ten people, Xu Zhiyi asked some common sense questions about the kitchen, and those with the quickest reaction would win, leaving only five people in this round.
"Now there are five of you left. You are all excellent. It is hard for me to decide, so I will leave it to your luck. I will make five bamboo sticks, and the two who draw the longest ones will stay."
When the five people saw the five lots being handed over, they all nervously reached out to take the lots.
When Wu saw that she had drawn the long lot, she jumped up excitedly: "Ah! I drew the long lot!"
Ma looked at the excited Wu and shook the stick in her hand with a smile: "Haha, mine is also long!"
The other three people who drew short lots looked at the lots in their hands and felt very angry. Why was their luck so bad?
Xu Zhiyi saw that Wu and Ma really drew the long lot, and couldn't help but mutter in his heart, why are these two people together everywhere, as if they are inseparable.
"Since you have won the lottery, I will make it clear that you two are not allowed to quarrel while you are working in the shop. Can you do it?"
Wu and Ma: "We can do it. We quarrel according to the occasion."
"Okay, you better remember this. If you make a mistake in the shop, I will have to hire someone else and you will have to go back to the village!"
Upon hearing this, both of them nodded solemnly to indicate that they would definitely not quarrel.
Xu Zhiyi, who was still expectant, suddenly thought of Liangshu: "The rest of the people still have a chance to make money. If you have time, you can go up the mountain to help dig something."
Then he took out a sweet potato with a vine from the kitchen and said, "This is it. I call it a sweet potato. You can go up the mountain and dig it up. I'll buy it for two pounds for one cent."
Everyone was very excited when they heard Xu Zhiyi's words.
"Miss Xu, did you dig this from the mountain?"
"Yeah, why weren't we able to notice this before?"
Xu Zhiyi: "Well, there should be more on the mountain. Look for them in the back mountain. Take this one and look for it!"
When everyone got a positive answer, they all smiled so hard that their teeth were showing.
After the villagers left, Master Zhang came to teach. He was so busy in the first two days of the shop opening that he did not return from town until the sun was about to set, so he could only change the class to one hour in the evening.
But Xu Zhiyi took into consideration that once the garment shop was opened, he would have to devote much more time and effort to that business than to the pastries. The pastry shop at least had a stable order from Su Ji Lou, and as long as there were no problems in the kitchen, he would be able to make money every day.
Once the garment shop had recruited an embroiderer, Aunt Luo and Lou Qianqian would have to concentrate on leading the team to make clothing styles. As for arranging the important few days of promotion for the opening and following up on the progress of the shop models, she had to arrange them. Although she was told at the time that she would be a hands-off manager, she had to get the shop on the right track and stabilize it first.
So she suddenly thought that she could hire an accountant to lighten her work, so that she could temporarily focus on the garment shop and build up the shop first. As for the pastry shop, she only needed to come over and follow up when she was free.
An hour later, when Master Zhang had finished teaching today's Book of Songs and was about to go back, Xu Zhiyi called him and said:
"Master, I heard from the villagers that Uncle Zhang used to work as an accountant in town?"
Master Zhang nodded and said, "Yes!"
Then he sighed: "Alas, he was doing well, but someone from his boss's shop had a conflict, and he went to break up the fight but got beaten up instead. The boss even blamed him, and he was fired just like that."
"I was injured for nothing and went home for two months. I am only now fully recovered."
Xu Zhiyi heard this and suggested: "Master, since Uncle Zhang is idle at home now, he can come to my shop to help! I am just looking to hire an accountant."
Master Zhang: "This... do you really need an accountant?"
"Master, I really need it"
"In that case, I'll go back and talk about it. It's getting late, so I'll go back first."
"Okay, Master, take care."
