Chapter 209: Strive to expand to all parts of the country
The couple didn't make any more trouble that night, after all, there were still a lot of things to do the next day.
The next day, Shen Jintao was woken up by the sound of a rooster crowing from somewhere. It was probably a rooster that one of the neighbors kept in his yard, and it started crowing at the appointed time.
Chen Jintao raised her wrist to check the time. It was past six o'clock. Nowadays, people go to bed early and get up early. Getting up after six o'clock is very normal. People like Liu Guifen, who are used to getting up early, sometimes get up at five o'clock.
I don’t know if it was because they were too tired yesterday, but when Chen Jintao and Huo Beichuan got up, they didn’t see Huo Nanxi. I guess she was still sleeping.
"Are you up?" Liu Guifen greeted her son and daughter-in-law with a smile when she saw them. "Have breakfast first. I've saved some for everyone else."
Chen Jintao was indeed a little hungry. She looked over and saw that the breakfast was very rich, seafood porridge, paired with meat buns made by Liu Guifen herself. After Liu Guifen came here, she spent most of her time studying how to eat, especially the buns. She was almost using them to create so many different kinds of fillings, each one offering a different experience.
Just as Shen Jintao grabbed a big bun, there was a noisy sound outside the door. It was the brothers of the Xu family who came over.
"Hey, why don't you sleep a little longer? I told you guys that you would definitely get up later. Anyway, there's nothing to do today, so why do you need to get up so early?"
Liu Guifen said with a smile.
"Auntie!"
Several brothers greeted Liu Guifen.
Liu Guifen hurried to the kitchen and brought out the steamer and basket. "Since you're all here, let's have breakfast quickly. The porridge is in the pot!"
"good!"
Several brothers rushed to the kitchen and were dumbfounded when they saw the sumptuous breakfast. How could breakfast be so delicious? Although it was already the 80s, it was not allowed to eat like this.
"Come and try it. We don't have much here, but we have a lot of seafood. This seafood porridge is also very delicious!" Liu Guifen introduced the delicious food she prepared.
It was so noisy outside that Huo Nanxi woke up and walked out of the room in a daze.
After washing up, I felt awake and was very excited about what I was going to do today. I didn't feel sleepy at all.
"Boss, go back to the family compound later and tell your sister-in-law Qian and the others to come over for dinner in the evening. Invite Hongying and her husband as well!"
Liu Guifen started giving orders while eating breakfast. It was not easy for her to go out with the two little ones. Her daughter-in-law was also busy and certainly could not go to the family quarters. This task could only be given to her son who was on vacation and had nothing to do.
"good!"
Everyone enjoyed the breakfast very much, and no one felt unaccustomed to the taste of the seafood. After all, Chen Jintao often sent some dried seafood to her hometown before, and she would bring some back every time she went back. They thought it was delicious, especially since the seafood was fresh, which made it taste even better.
The house is not far from restaurants and clothing stores, so there is no need to take a car.
A few people just walked over there to help digest their food.
I didn’t dare say such things when I was working in the fields to earn work points. At that time, I wished I could stay still so that I could slow down my digestion time and wouldn’t get hungry so quickly.
Chen Jintao first took them to the clothing store across the street. Qian Mingfang gave her a key to the store to facilitate the decoration.
"Take a look here. This is your first job. Once the decoration is done, you will have a lot of business in the future. I tell you, this is going to be a clothing store. There will definitely be a lot of people coming and going in the future. This is equivalent to an invisible advertisement."
"I'll take Xiaoxi to the other side first. It's just across the street. Do you see it?"
Chen Jintao pointed in the direction of the hotel.
"Okay, you guys go and get busy first." Xu Hongqi and others were also eager to get started.
Chen Jintao took her sister-in-law to the other side of the street.
"Sister-in-law, is this the restaurant you mentioned?" Huo Nanxi didn't know where to put her eyes. If Qian Mingfang and the others came to visit, they might only see the surface things and exclaim in amazement, but she, Huo Nanxi, was going to be in charge of managing the hotel, so she would see deeper things.
Just like the kitchen in the back where you can see what’s going on inside almost at a glance, such a kitchen will make customers feel very safe, which is amazing.
"Yes, this is the first store you will manage. Work hard and we will try to open stores all over the country."
As a qualified boss, of course you have to learn to paint a rosy picture for your employees.
As expected, after listening to her sister-in-law's words, Huo Nanxi was full of fighting spirit.
"Sister-in-law, I will definitely do my best!"
Huo Nanxi had thought about opening a restaurant in the small town in Yunnan Province before, but her sister-in-law said that there were bigger things for her to do, so she held back. Now, when she saw this restaurant, she loved it so much. She couldn't even imagine how happy she would be if she could really run such a good restaurant herself, especially since every detail of this restaurant was right up her alley.
The decoration here has been completed, and the tables, chairs and benches have also been brought in. It only takes a few days to dry before it can open for business.
"Xiao Xi, you came at the right time. We are hiring now. Please write a recruitment notice and post it at the door. Also, during this period of time, find a way to promote our restaurant. We will give 20% off on all dishes in the first three days of opening. You should know how to do it."
"I understand!" Huo Nanxi smiled so hard that her teeth were showing. She was not afraid of being busy, but she was afraid of having nothing to do.
"Okay, then we'll officially start work tomorrow. Today you can take a good look at what our restaurant needs and we'll buy it in the next few days."
"good!"
Huo Nanxi was full of energy. She didn't lack anything when living with her brother and sister-in-law. Her clothes had been sent to her and she could pick them up when they arrived. Besides, she had something to do now, so she had no interest in things like shopping.
After all, I have worked in a state-owned restaurant for several years, so I am not completely ignorant of how to run a restaurant. Now I am just waiting to show my skills.
Over there, Xu Hongqi and others also walked around the clothing store and had a rough idea in their minds. If it were just them, the decoration would probably take about five or six days. This is because it was a two-story building. If it was only one story, it would not take that long at all.
After closing the door over there, they went straight to the hotel to meet Shen Jintao. Shen Jintao took them to the department store to buy daily necessities, and also took them to the hardware store to buy some tools needed for decoration.
