According to Du Shaojie's idea, the catering management company will set up [Northern Company], [Southern China Company], and [Eastern China Company].
Among them, [Northern Company] manages all stores in the northwest, north China, and northeast regions, [Southern China Company] manages all stores in the south and southwest regions, and [Eastern China Company] manages all stores in the eastern and central regions.
The purpose of this reorganization is to refine management and provide good service for each store.
Meng Gang transferred most of the employees of the headquarters to various regional companies, and only a small number of people were retained at the headquarters.
This process was very fast, but after the company's structure changed, it will take some time for each department to run in. Fortunately, they are all mature management models and will not cause turmoil within the company.
After Du Shaojie returned to Yangcheng, he took time to visit Director Luo again.
The other party's physical condition was not as good as the last time they met. He spent more time in bed every day, and his spirit began to be a little weak.
"Ajie, I've been dreaming about Xijiang recently, and I remember Laolong River clearly in my dream. For some reason, I really want to eat roasted whole lamb. When I feel better, can you accompany me back?"
Director Luo became nostalgic. For half an hour, he kept recalling things about Xijiang.
In particular, he said he wanted to eat roasted whole lamb at the end.
"Okay, you should take a good rest during this period, and we will go back to Xijiang together later."
Du Shaojie sat for half an hour and then said goodbye and left.
He had a bad premonition in his heart, and he called Cai Jing to tell her when he got home.
It might be difficult for Director Luo to go back to Xijiang, but he could still eat roasted whole lamb. Du Shaojie immediately found someone to order a large oven, and the other party said it would take a week to deliver.
"I'll give you double the price, and it's okay to deliver within three days?"
Du Shaojie was worried that the night would be long and dreams would be many, so he directly offered a high price and asked the other party to speed up the production.
Money is motivation, and the large oven was delivered to the training center on time in three days.
Du Shaojie immediately called Xijiang and asked them to send a slaughtered sheep by civil aviation. After the whole sheep arrived, Du Shaojie began to process and marinate it, and then roast it.
He made this dish according to the traditional craftsmanship of Xijiang, which took a lot of thought.
In the evening.
Du Shaojie came to Director Luo's house with an insulated lunch box.
The insulated lunch box contained [Roasted Whole Lamb]. There was not much meat cut out, but it must be the best part.
"Director Luo, you said you wanted to eat roasted whole lamb the other day. I made this dish specially today. Would you like to try it?"
When Du Shaojie entered the door, he saw Director Luo lying on the recliner and rocking gently.
The nanny who was responsible for taking care of him leaned over and shouted several times in his ear, and Director Luo slowly opened his eyes.
Du Shaojie walked up to him, leaned over, and opened the insulated lunch box. The aroma of the roasted whole lamb inside suddenly came out, and Director Luo woke up instantly.
"Then I have to taste it carefully."
Director Luo walked to the dining table and sat down, slowly eating the [Roast Whole Lamb].
After a while, a look of joy appeared on his face, and then he said to Du Shaojie: "You made this roast whole lamb very authentically, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a fragrant aroma. Now it can satisfy your appetite."
Director Luo had a very good appetite today, at least 50% more than usual.
After eating, he chatted with Du Shaojie for more than half an hour. His thinking was very clear at this time, and he could blurt out many old stories, and it seemed that his memory had improved.
But his spirit was still very poor, and he felt a little sleepy after chatting for half an hour.
Du Shaojie stood up and said goodbye. Although he wanted to talk more with Director Luo, he could see that the other party's body could not bear it.
Back to the training center restaurant, Du Shaojie invited Liao Yongxin, Chu Linlin and others to come and eat [Roast Whole Lamb]. As he ate, he suddenly felt a sense of recurrence in his heart.
He is not a doctor, but he can tell something from a person's mental state and eyes.
Director Luo may not have many days left.
The next day.
Cai Jing rushed over from Shenzhen City. After visiting Director Luo, she also felt that his condition was not very good.
A few days later, Director Luo was hospitalized again. This time, he never came out of the hospital and died in the hospital a month later. His wish to return to Xijiang was ultimately not fulfilled.
Du Shaojie and Cai Jing were both very sad, but they still had to force themselves to help Director Luo's family deal with the aftermath.
"According to the director's will, he wants to bury his ashes in Xijiang. I have contacted the local martyrs' cemetery. After Haiyang sends the director's ashes back, they can be buried in the cemetery."
Director Luo has a son and a daughter, so this matter must be handled by his children in person.
However, Du Shaojie felt that he should also go there, at least to assist.
Cai Jing will also be there on the day of Director Luo's burial. She has a lot of things to do, so she will leave a few days later.
"Xiaojie, I'll go with you when you return to Xijiang."
When Wang Yuxiu heard that her son was going back to Xijiang, she wanted to go back and take a look.
Although someone was taking care of the house, she was still worried about leaving it there for a long time.
"Okay, then you prepare, we'll leave in a few days."
Du Shaojie did not go with Luo Haiyang and others, but planned to set out in advance.
Director Luo has many relatives and friends there, and there are many things that need to be arranged in advance. Director Luo's son Luo Haiyang can't do everything.
After attending Director Luo's memorial service, Du Shaojie flew to Xijiang with Wang Yuxiu.
Thinking back to when he was just an apprentice, he met Director Luo by chance. Since then, Director Luo has taken care of him. Later, he came to the south, and Director Luo still provided him with a lot of help, completely treating him as a friend of different ages.
Over the years, the two have established a deep friendship.
After returning to his hometown, Du Shaojie was not idle, and he didn't calm down until Director Luo was buried in the Martyrs' Cemetery.
Before Luo Haiyang left, he invited the other brother and sister to have a meal, and said frankly that if they encountered any difficulties in the future, they must come to him and he would do his best to help.
Cai Jing said the same thing. The two had promised Director Luo before that they would help his children within their capacity. Since I said it, I will definitely do it.
Brother and sister Luo Haiyang expressed their gratitude again and again, and they still felt very warm in their hearts.
Half a month later.
Du Shaojie and Wang Yuxiu returned to Yangcheng.
Qi Yan said that she would take the children home next month, so he should stop tossing and go to Yangcheng and wait.
After such a long time, Du Shaojie has adjusted his mentality and no longer thinks about philosophical questions such as life and death. He deliberately slowed down the pace of his work and life, and the whole person became more and more peaceful.
The catering management company has Meng Gang, Su Dapeng, Xiao Jianjun, Dong Jun, Yu Jianxin and others, Dingxin International has Liang Meiqin, Winnie, Fan Shilun and others, other hot pot projects have Pang Weidong, and the karaoke project has Xu Bo
. As the big boss, he is the most idle one.
He learned to delegate power from the beginning, and at the same time strengthened supervision in all aspects. Many times it was the same whether he was there or not.
Qi Yan took the children back to Yangcheng and lived for a month, and went to Beijing again. It is good for the couple to spend half of the year together, and the rest of the time they are busy with their own things.
After Qi Yan and the others left, Du Shaojie took Wang Yongli, Zou Xiaohe, Zhong Qing and Peng Yongjun and drove two cars all the way to Fujian Province.
He traveled a long distance to the local area specifically for [Fujian cuisine], one of the eight major cuisines.
"Boss, I'll go rent a house first."
When they arrived at the capital of Fujian Province, they first found a hotel to settle down.
Wang Yongli and Du Shaojie came out of the lake the most, and they took the initiative to go out to find a house without the boss's instructions.
Du Shaojie was relatively unfamiliar with [Fujian cuisine] before, and the first step to understand it must be to taste more.
The first step is to go to the major restaurants in the city and use some time to taste all the classic dishes of [Fujian cuisine], which is equivalent to having an intuitive impression.
The group stayed in the hotel for three days, and Wang Yongli rented a house outside.
It was still the old rule. Du Shaojie and others rented a large yard. The house facilities were good, mainly very spacious.
The price was not low, but Du Shaojie would not care about this little thing.
Unknowingly, he had been in the local area for almost a month. He took advantage of the weekend and flew to Beijing with Wang Yongli to visit Qi Yan and his daughter.
This was what he and Qi Yan had agreed on. Basically, they would meet every month.
Otherwise, if they didn't meet for a long time, his daughter would not recognize her father.
After a week of reunion with his wife and children at home, he returned to Fujian Province. [Fujian cuisine] has its own special flavor. If you want to master the essence of this cuisine, you have to stay for a while.
"I have been eating [Fujian cuisine] for so long, and I have a basic concept, but it is still quite troublesome to replicate it."
Du Shaojie secretly calculated in his heart, and he was a little hesitant about whether to contact the local catering association.
The key is that he has too little knowledge, and even if he organizes exchange activities through the association, the gains are very limited.
As a result, when he was walking around the street that day, he saw a chef training school.
Qi Yan's chef training school has not yet infiltrated this side. He took Wang Yongli in and asked, and the school's main specialty is [Fujian cuisine].
Du Shaojie talked to the admissions staff, who simply tested his basic skills and agreed to let him enter the advanced class.
The beginner and intermediate classes focus on the basics, while the advanced classes can learn some skills.
"I will go to class starting from next week. Yongli just needs to follow me during the week. The two of you are free to do whatever you want. I'll call you if there is anything."
Du Shaojie made arrangements and arrived at the school early on Monday morning.
The lecturer today is a retired top chef. His cooking skills are good, but his accent is too heavy to be understood at all.
There are very few students from other provinces in the class. Others can understand, but he is completely in the dark.
He had to go to the school, and the school had no choice but to find a student who speaks good Mandarin to act as his "translator."
Of course, learning to cook is more about the teacher's demonstration, which he is good at, and he can understand it at a glance. (End of this chapter)
