"Boss, I received a flyer nearby. This is a resort, but business is not good. They are currently offering discounts. Do you have any interest?"
The resort is a little far from the city center, but the transportation is very convenient.
There are many vacant holiday villas there, and they are now rented out at a discount, either long-term or short-term.
"I have nothing to do in the afternoon, so I'll go and have a look."
Du Shaojie was a little tempted, but he was a little sleepy at the moment, so he took a nap before going to see the house.
To his surprise, the villas in the resort were very new, and the decoration and facilities inside were good. Although the price was more expensive than renting a house outside, he didn't care about this little money.
So he decided to rent a villa for a tentative period of one month. If he wanted to extend it, he would wait until then.
The contract took effect from tomorrow, and they stayed in the hotel that night.
The next day.
After Du Shaojie and others had breakfast, they checked out.
Three cars drove straight to the resort, and the security guard at the gate checked the rental procedures and let them pass. The villa has a garage, which can park two cars inside, and you can also park on the open space outside the villa, which is very convenient.
"Hello, Mr. Du! I'm the house manager. The resort has its own restaurant and small supermarket. The nearest vegetable market is about a 15-minute drive away. If you need shopping or other services, you need to go to the downtown area."
The resort manager helped them check in and explained some details.
Life here is not very convenient. The restaurant in the resort is more like a canteen. To put it bluntly, the small supermarket is just at the level of a small store. You have to drive a long way to buy vegetables.
Those who rent these villas are either companies or short vacations. It's rare for people like Du Shaojie to rent for a month.
Everyone doesn't care. Anyway, there are three cars, and it's convenient for anyone who wants to go out to do things.
But soon they knew they were wrong. The villa was equipped with a kitchen, but the kitchen lacked kitchenware and tableware, not to mention firewood, rice, oil, salt and condiments. They
were too lazy to go out for lunch, so they went to the resort restaurant.
There were not many people in the restaurant. There were only seven or eight tables of guests.
"What the hell is this? Why is it so bad?"
Everyone ordered a few dishes and started eating with a bowl of rice per person.
Then, everyone's face showed a painful expression. They had been following Du Shaojie for a long time, and it was the first time they found that someone could make something so hard to swallow.
No wonder the resort's business was not good and they needed to offer discounts to attract customers. No one was willing to come just because of the restaurant's level.
"Waiter, go call your manager."
Luo Qin put down her chopsticks at that time and prepared to argue with the restaurant manager.
As a result, the waiter told her that the manager had resigned half a month ago and the new manager had not yet taken office.
Wang Yongli felt a little guilty and immediately stood up to find the person in charge of the resort.
"Forget it, let's go out to eat."
Du Shaojie waved his hand, signaling everyone not to be impulsive.
This matter was actually his responsibility. He came to see the house in person and signed a one-month lease contract when he thought it was good. It was actually none of Wang Yongli's business.
Before he left, the guests at other tables started to make a fuss again.
It seemed that they were not the only ones who were deceived, but also those who were sitting in the restaurant to eat.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! We are currently undergoing internal adjustments, and some work has not been done properly. Please forgive us. Today's meal is free, and we will change the restaurant's appearance as soon as possible."
At this time, the manager of the resort came over.
The other party was a middle-aged man in his forties. He came in and clasped his fists to everyone. His attitude was quite good.
When the others heard that the meal was free, they stopped making trouble.
Du Shaojie still did not change his mind. He and Wang Yongli stood up and walked to the door of the restaurant.
"Sir, please wait a moment."
The resort manager chased after him from behind, and Du Shaojie stopped when he walked outside the door.
"What's the matter?"
Du Shaojie asked with a smile.
"It's our fault today. The newly hired restaurant manager and chef will not come until the day after tomorrow. At present, there are only a few kitchen workers on duty in the restaurant. Please don't be angry."
The manager said, and took out some meal coupons from his pocket, which were about 200 yuan.
Then he insisted that Du Shaojie accept them, and if he didn't accept them, he would keep apologizing.
Du Shaojie couldn't figure out what went wrong internally, but this manager was definitely a talent. If they were really making internal adjustments as the other party said, the resort's business would definitely not be bad after the adjustments were completed.
So he stopped talking, took the meal coupon, said "thank you", and got in the car and left.
In the afternoon.
Du Shaojie asked Wang Yongli and the others to buy ingredients. He went to the basement alone and took out the dining cart and barbecue grill.
These things have been stored in the storage space for a long time, and today they finally see the light of day again.
After coming out of the basement, he walked around outside for a while. Xu Youlian saw him on the second floor and hurried down to catch up.
At this moment, there were only him and Xu Youlian in the whole villa, and everyone else had gone out.
"Boss, I'm sorry. I just took a nap and didn't see you leave the villa."
"It's okay. Is there any danger in the resort? By the way, come with me to the basement to get some things."
Du Shaojie saw Xu Youlian and was too lazy to wander around. He and her took the dining cart and barbecue grill from the basement to the lawn outside.
The villas in the resort are all single-family villas. The lawns around the villas look good and the place is big enough.
When Wang Yongli and the others came back, they saw the dining cart and barbecue grill on the lawn.
Wang Yongli felt that the dining cart was very familiar. He was the first person to follow the boss. He also set up snack stalls in other cities. The dining cart used by the boss looked very similar to this one.
He naturally didn't ask more questions. The boss had money and someone would deliver whatever he wanted in minutes.
After all, Qindao also has Du Shaojie's flag industry. Sub-brands such as [Xichuan Restaurant], [Xiangwei Ju], [Northwest Noodle House], and [Shuweixiang Old Hot Pot] all have stores in the local area.
"We'll have a barbecue tonight. Yongli, you and Luo Qin go wash the vegetables. Xiaohe, you and Xu Youlian help me. Yongjun will be responsible for stringing the skewers. Do it yourself and you'll have enough food and clothing."
Du Shaojie made arrangements, and no one was idle, and everyone had something to do.
Wang Yongli and others bought a lot of ingredients, including mutton, beef, pork belly, squid, grass carp, and various vegetables.
At the same time, according to Du Shaojie's instructions, they bought scallion pancakes, various condiments and cooking oil, and charcoal for barbecue.
Du Shaojie waited for them to process the ingredients, marinated some of the ingredients first, and then prepared the barbecue sauce himself.
Wang Yongli lit the charcoal and piled it on the barbecue stove.
After the charcoal fire was red, Du Shaojie started to grill, and Xu Youlian and Zou Xiaohe stood aside to learn.
They were embarrassed to let the boss stand here alone to grill, and they ate and drank on the side.
"It's okay, don't look at the small barbecue, it's also a technical job."
Du Shaojie usually doesn't have any airs, especially to the people around him.
However, Xu Youlian and Zou Xiaohe both had some talent. They learned it very quickly after watching it.
Wang Yongli and his friends moved a small tea table and chairs from the villa. Du Shaojie felt that the grilled food was almost done, so he sat over to eat barbecue and drink beer with everyone.
Everyone quickly got into the mood and stopped thinking about annoying things.
They ate and drank here beautifully, and the tenants nearby came and went and looked at them with envy. The main reason was that the smell was so fragrant that they couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
"Excuse me, can you give us some of your barbecue? I'll pay."
Finally, a young man came over hesitantly at the instigation of his girlfriend.
He felt that his behavior was very embarrassing, but he felt distressed when he saw how his girlfriend ate today, so he had to speak with a thick face.
Luo Qin turned around and glanced at the other party, feeling speechless.
The boss is interested in your money? How many people spend a lot of money to eat a meal cooked by the boss, but they can't get in line. Do you think you are special?
Of course, she would not say these words, but just think about them in her heart.
"Yongli, here comes the business, ask what they want to eat?"
What Luo Qin didn't expect was that Du Shaojie really stood up and prepared to do business with the other party.
Wang Yongli went up to ask familiarly, then wrote down what the other party wanted in a notebook and quoted the price. No matter how you look at it, he is like a "shop assistant".
Du Shaojie glanced at the "order" and grilled it skillfully.
After a while, the aroma of barbecue wafted out, and the young couple was almost drooling with greed.
"Okay, Yongli, take it to the guests."
After Du Shaojie finished grilling, he returned to the small tea table and sat down.
Wang Yongli handed the skewers to the young man, and then collected the money very skillfully.
This scene completely overturned Luo Qin and Xu Youlian's cognition. The two looked at each other, not knowing what the boss was singing.
"Thank you! Thank you! With these skewers, we will finally not starve to death."
The young couple took the skewers and left happily, eating non-stop as they walked.
"Luo Qin, A Lian, what are you two looking at? I've set up night markets and snack stalls with my boss. What's wrong with buying a few skewers for others?"
Wang Yongli looked at Luo Qin and Xu Youlian, who looked like they had never seen the world, and couldn't help but say something.
Luo Qin and the others were curious and kept asking what was going on.
Wang Yongli saw that the boss didn't react, so he simply told them a few things, which made the two of them stunned.
But considering that the boss was honing his cooking skills, it seemed reasonable.
But what about today?
"It's fate that they can find me. From tomorrow I will sell food at the resort."
Du Shaojie actually did it on purpose, otherwise he wouldn't have asked Wang Yongli to buy so many ingredients.
After eating and drinking, Du Shaojie asked them to clean the dining car and the barbecue grill, and then went to the kitchen to deal with the pork belly. After preparing the spices himself, he started to stew it.
He made [Ba Zi Rou], which was stewed slowly over low heat and soaked overnight to make it delicious.
He handed over the person who watched the fire to Wang Yongli and others, and he went upstairs to take a shower and go to bed. (End of this chapter)
