Hearing this, Hu Xiaoman smiled and said, "Master Chef, this dish is not what I thought."
"I ate this a few years ago when I was on a business trip to the south. I've modified it a little bit and this flavor is more suitable for people in Northeast China."
Boiled pork slices are spicy and delicious in the south, but people nowadays are not used to spicy food, so they only add a little bit.
Fumanlou’s Sichuan cuisine is now very famous, and basically everyone who comes here to eat there comes for these special dishes.
When the master chef heard her say this, he thought it was just a polite remark.
Even if it’s just a slight improvement, it’s still amazing. Who can just change a recipe and make it delicious?
Anyway, he has only seen a few of them, which also shows that the boss lady is very powerful.
After a busy day, Hu Xiaoman felt that there were indeed not enough waiters.
She thought about it and then posted the recruitment information.
Nowadays, no one is hiring waiters. Everyone does it themselves. Why would they need to hire people?
The waiter at Fumanlou earns 35 yuan a month, plus a 5 yuan subsidy, which makes a total of 40 yuan a month.
Such a salary cannot be earned in a factory, but most of those who are willing to come to work are housewives who really can't find a job.
Most people still don't like self-employed individuals, but as time goes by, things will gradually get better.
Hu Xiaoman went out directly in the afternoon and came to Hu Xiaokang's house, where he saw him lying there watching TV.
This TV was bought by Hu Xiaoman. They also have one at home, but it has few channels now. But in order to help Zhang Chunxia entertain herself, she bought one.
"Third brother, why didn't you go to work?" She originally came to see Zhang Chunxia, but she didn't expect this person to be at home too.
Hearing this, Hu Xiaokang said, "I'm not on a business trip anymore, so I don't have anything to do. I'll just stay home."
Zhang Chunxia, cracking melon seeds on the kang, said, "I think his factory is going bankrupt. He's idle for more than half a month out of a month. What else is he doing?"
Because he was not traveling on business, Hu Xiaokang's workload was reduced by half.
He is almost forty years old, so he feels annoyed staying at home. Except for going to Fumanlou to help yesterday, he has stayed at home all the time.
Hu Xiaoman said, "Third brother, why don't you come to Fumanlou to help me first? I'll help you with the expenses."
She also didn't want to be tied up in this restaurant all day because the money was not much and she needed to earn more.
After hearing her say this, Hu Xiaokang subconsciously didn't want to agree.
"What are you talking about? I'm staying at home too, so it's definitely no problem for me to help you." He said this, but in his heart he really didn't want to work.
You can help, but you cannot work.
In fact, he was not optimistic about the business of this self-employed person. After all, a stable job is the only thing that is really useful.
What can this self-employed person who lives on the edge of death achieve?
Hearing this, Hu Xiaoman said nothing, but nodded with a smile: "Then start helping me with the work tomorrow. If you have time, go and I will pay you the same."
After leaving the nutritional supplements, she said goodbye to Zhang Chunxia and left.
After Zhang Chunxia saw the man leave, she said to her son, "You're such a stubborn person! What's wrong with working for your sister? She'll pay you!"
"Mom, what do you know?" Hu Xiaokang curled his lips and was unwilling to mention this matter.
But just because he didn't mention it doesn't mean Zhang Chunxia doesn't want to say it.
"You're quite the hypocrite!" Zhang Chunxia said angrily, "If you have nothing to do, just go and help. There's nothing to do at the factory anyway, and they didn't ask you to resign. Why are you so stubborn?"
This was both stubborn and stubborn, which made Hu Xiaokang feel very helpless.
"Mom!" he said helplessly, "How can this job be done casually? I'll listen to you and go help tomorrow, okay?"
Really, I can’t help, and I can’t not help.
The next day, Hu Xiaokang really went to help. He came early and helped with the work.
He does everything, from helping waiters wipe tables to helping pick vegetables in the kitchen. He just does whatever work is available.
At this time, Hu Xiaoman came back with a bunch of vegetables. Seeing him coming, he said, "Third brother is here, you don't have to do these things. Come, I will tell you to help me collect the money and settle the bill."
There are people who do these jobs, but she doesn't trust others when it comes to collecting money and settling accounts.
So as long as Hu Xiaokang is willing to do it, the job will be given to him.
This person is quite righteous, so there is no need to worry about him taking bribes or anything like that.
When Hu Xiaokang heard this, he immediately said, "Why should I settle the accounts? You settle them here."
After all, it is a matter of money. Even if they are brothers and sisters, he has to take them into consideration so that he won’t have to pay for the money if it is lost.
Hearing this, Hu Xiaoman replied: "I often go out to play, so I won't be here every day. You have to help me."
There was no choice, Hu Xiaokang could only follow her to the office on the second floor.
"Third brother, that's it. Do you understand?" Hu Xiaoman said as he picked up the water cup next to him and took a sip of water.
After a busy morning, she finally had time to drink some water.
Hu Xiaokang frowned and said, "And you're rounding off the difference? How much can we earn?"
A table of dishes costs three to five dollars, and they still have to pay for it. Can they make money?
Hearing this, Hu Xiaoman smiled and said, "Third brother, we may earn less by taking a few cents, but people will feel that they are getting a bargain and will come back in the future!"
"Think about it, if you spend money to eat out and someone smears a little on you, will you come back next time?"
"No!" Hu Xiaokang shook his head seriously and said, "I don't eat out. It's not like there's no food at home."
He felt that spending money on eating out was a waste. Wouldn't it be better to buy some ingredients and cook the same thing himself?
Hu Xiaoman felt that her words were in vain. She sighed and said, "Anyway, that's it. You'll follow me to collect the money and settle the account later."
She had to teach someone, otherwise what would she do in the future? If she was really tied here, then there would be no point in running this restaurant.
This restaurant is just a transitional period, and she eventually wants to open a factory.
When the 1990s come, she will also enter the real estate industry. Although she has good ideas, she feels very annoyed now that no one is using her money.
If there is no one, then no matter how many industries you want to work in, don’t you have to hold on?
Thinking of this, Hu Xiaoman felt a headache.
After dinner time, the waiters and the kitchen staff came out to eat.
There are only two dishes in her meal, one cold dish and one hot dish every day.
Hot dishes must have meat, otherwise these people will not be motivated to work.
If you want the horse to run, you must feed it well!
Hu Xiaokang ate with everyone else. Seeing that Hu Xiaoman didn't want to eat, he said, "Xiaoman, why don't you eat first? You've been tired all morning."
He kept watching Hu Xiaoman standing there counting the bills, and he also had to go to the kitchen to give some instructions.
It's really busy running back and forth, and it's tiring to work alone.
