Fang Yang laughed and said, "Good things come to those who wait, so there's no need to rush. The headquarters construction will probably take another year, plus another six months for renovations. Time will pass quickly. Construction is being carried out 24 hours a day now, and we might be able to move in by the end of next year."
Luo Cheng was unaware of Fang Yang Construction's headquarters and was confused upon hearing this. "President Fang, what do you mean by headquarters?"
Fang Yang looked at the bewildered Luo Cheng and explained with a smile, "Our company bought a plot of land of more than 5,000 mu in Xihu City. We plan to build a headquarters building, corresponding employee dormitories, and a children's theme park. It's a huge investment. This matter has been announced for several months now. You may not be paying much attention to it, so you don't know. Hey, Mr. Luo, with your skills, you could open a restaurant there. The business would definitely be much better than here."
As Fang Yang was talking, he suddenly remembered that he could bring Luo Cheng over to open a restaurant. With Luo Cheng's skills, he would definitely be able to make a name for himself.
Luo Cheng was completely dumbfounded. Fang Yang's words were like a bomb exploding in his mind, shutting out everything else. All he could remember was five thousand acres of land churning in his mind. How big is five thousand acres of land? It's probably not even that big in his hometown county.
Take Hengdian World Studios as an example. It covers a total area of 50,000 mu and has a total investment of only 30 billion yuan. This is because the actual building area is only a few thousand mu, and most of the rest is empty land, which has little practical significance.
Seeing that Luo Cheng was completely lost in thought, Fang Yang didn't bother to say anything more and decided to wait until he came to his senses.
They raised their glasses of beer to the Mo brothers, then the three of them simply poured themselves a drink and ignored Luo Cheng. It was just a fact, after all; this guy was a bit senile, so what could they do?
"Mr. Fang, this grilled fish is pretty good, it's absolutely delicious with beer!"
Foodie Mo Zhen was the first to discover the perfect combination in the foodie world, and then recommended it to Fang Yang. Fang Yang nodded, picked up a piece of grilled fish, then took a sip of beer. Seeing that Luo Cheng was still engrossed in his own world, he shook his head, scooped up a large ladle of fish soup, and said that fresh fish soup was always delicious!
Mo Sang also raised his glass and clinked it with Fang Yang's. Just as Mo Zhen said, beer and barbecue are simply the ultimate enjoyment. Mo Sang also fell in love with this, and kept picking up grilled fish with his chopsticks, enjoying it with great relish.
There was also a bowl of fried fish skin on the table. It was crunchy and delicious, and Fang Yang liked it very much. This kind of thing is usually only good when fried from fish weighing more than ten pounds. It is very troublesome to make at home and is usually only available in restaurants. It really tests the chef's skill.
Seeing Fang Yang eating with gusto, Mo Zhen also ate two pieces and couldn't help but laugh, "I didn't realize Lao Luo's skills were so high. This fried fish skin is fried to a very chewy texture, and it's more and more addictive the more you eat it."
Seeing that Mo Zhen was enjoying his meal, Fang Yang didn't try to take it from him. Instead, he focused on the pieces of fish in front of him. The fish was numbing and spicy, but it didn't affect the fresh and tender fish flavor at all, making it a unique dish.
The three, engrossed in their meal, were completely unaware that the bewildered Luo Cheng had regained consciousness. It wasn't until they saw him pick up his wine glass and gulp down a large mouthful that they realized, "Hey, you're awake! We thought you'd only wake up after we finished our drinks!"
Luo Cheng shook himself, "I didn't drink any alcohol, why are you talking about waking up or not? Hey, Mo Sang, leave me a bite! You ate all five grilled fish!"
Luo Cheng watched as Mo Sang devoured a piece of grilled fish and a sip of beer with gusto, and he was on the verge of tears. What kind of person is this? Does your mother know how much you can eat?
Mo Sang rolled her eyes at Luo Cheng. "This is your shop, and you're the chef yourself. Are you worried about not having enough to eat? Finishing the food is a favor to you, it shows you're a good cook. Didn't you see Mo Zhen finish that bowl of fish skin?"
Luo Cheng looked at Mo Zhen picking up the last piece of fish skin, and then at Fang Yang struggling around the whole bowl of fish slices. It was as if he was in a dream. Am I still not awake? How can these people eat so much?
Fang Yang swallowed the last piece of fish with satisfaction. Looking at the fish soup that was left at the bottom of the bowl, he remembered that it was mostly peppercorns, so he lost his appetite. He pointed to the fried fish pieces and braised carp left on the table and said, "Boss Luo, I didn't wait for you. There are still some dishes here. Just make do with these. It must have been hard work for you to cook this whole table of dishes. You haven't even eaten much yet. Hurry up and eat, don't go hungry."
Luo Cheng almost spat out a mouthful of blood. What kind of talk was this? Sure enough, all bosses are cunning and wicked; there isn't a single good person among them. Holding back his tears, Luo Cheng tried to grab a bottle of beer to calm his nerves, but found nothing. Looking down, he saw that the two cases of beer were now just two empty boxes!
Looking up, I saw that Mo Sang and Mo Zhen had a lot of empty bottles in front of them. They were like pigs! They ate so much food and still managed to finish two cases of beer. Only a pig's stomach could handle that!
Seeing the fire in Luo Cheng's eyes, Mo Zhen couldn't help but smile awkwardly, "Beer and barbecue are just too delicious, I couldn't resist and couldn't stop myself."
Luo Cheng waved his hand, "Forget it, I didn't expect you guys to eat so much. Is that enough? Or should I bring another box over?"
Mo Zhen shook her head, "No need, no need, I'm already full. You can have some yourself."
Luo Cheng sighed, his appetite completely gone. "President Fang, I think I just heard you say that your company bought 5,000 acres of land to build its headquarters, right?"
Fang Yang chuckled and said, "That's right. The preliminary work has been completed, and construction will begin the day after tomorrow. It should be completed by the end of next year at the earliest."
"You just said you wanted me to open a restaurant in your area?"
Fang Yang nodded. "What I mean is, if your business here isn't doing so well, you can consider coming to my place. There are two options: one is to open your own restaurant there, responsible for your own profits and losses, mainly targeting tourists in the park; the other is to work in our company cafeteria, and the company will pay you a salary."
Luo Cheng hesitated and said, "My current net profit is about 15,000 a month. I wonder how much I would earn if I worked for you?"
"If you work as a head chef in the company cafeteria, with your skills, you can earn around 20,000 yuan a month, with four days off each month. You can start working once the headquarters is built and open."
"How many people are there in your company? How many people do I have to cook for each meal?"
"The estimated number is around 10,000. Of course, you won't be the only one doing it. You only need to cook a portion of the Sichuan cuisine. The company will invite four chefs from each major cuisine to cook some of their signature dishes. You don't need to worry about the other kitchen helpers. You chefs just need to cook."
Luo Cheng was somewhat tempted. It seemed much easier than his current job, and there was nothing shady about it. Basically, it was a guaranteed income regardless of the circumstances.
Fang Yang continued to explain, "The company also has employee dormitories, schools, and hospitals, all of which are free. We also pay for your social insurance and housing fund. You can bring your family over. If your wife doesn't have any skills, she can also do sanitation work for the company. The salary will basically be over 5,000."
