Shen Qing never expected that Feng Haidong's shop would have so many customers on its first day of business after the New Year.
Because it was her first night working as a waitress, she was quite overwhelmed when there were many customers.
Fortunately, the other staff members helped each other out, especially Liu Fenzhen, who personally oversaw the situation and prevented any chaos due to the large number of customers.
"Xiaoqing, don't rush. When a customer calls, if you have something to do, finish it first before responding to the customer."
And as you can see, you're not the only waitress in the store; the older lady is also busy there.
So don't rush to that table the moment you hear someone call for a waiter.
After finishing her work for a while, Liu Fenzhen took a break and gave Shen Qing some pointers.
Shen Qing was a little flustered because she had never seen so many guests before.
Several times in a row, she hadn't finished her own work when she heard someone calling for a waiter, and before she could finish her work, she immediately ran to the table where the waiter had called.
Several times, things almost escalated into problems, but fortunately, Liu Fenzhen helped her avert them each time.
Liu Fenzhen could tell that Shen Qing was indeed quite diligent.
They were probably new here and wanted to show off.
That's why they rush to serve certain customers.
Liu Fenzhen said earnestly, "Xiaoqing, you must not rush to take on customers. Our shop certainly encourages everyone to take the initiative to serve customers, but it doesn't mean you have to rush to serve customers. You have to serve each table one by one, understand?"
Shen Qing nodded and said, "Big sister, I understand. I was too anxious."
At this moment, Feng Haidong came out of the kitchen to serve the dishes and happened to overhear his cousin and Shen Qing's conversation.
He laughed and said, "No need to rush. Look at me, so many guests have come all at once, eager to eat fish, but I'm not in a hurry, am I? The fish have to be grilled one by one, and cooked one by one. These times cannot be omitted. Once they are omitted, the taste of our grilled fish will not be good."
Hearing the sound, Shen Qing turned around and saw Feng Haidong carrying a grilled fish out.
She said somewhat embarrassedly, "Brother Haidong, I was still too reckless."
Feng Haidong smiled and said, "It's okay. It's like this at the beginning. And you did very well today. You took the initiative to communicate with customers and were willing to take on jobs. That's great. I think you can stay."
After saying that, Feng Haidong went to serve the grilled fish to the guests.
Shen Qing was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses and looked at Liu Fenzhen, saying, "Big sister, can I stay?"
Liu Fenzhen smiled and said, "Silly girl, of course you can stay if you work so hard."
Shen Qing said excitedly, "Big sister, I will definitely continue to work hard."
Liu Fenzhen said, "Okay, go get to work."
Shen Qing was full of energy and immediately greeted the guests with a smile.
The shop was busy until 10:30 p.m.
Lu Wanling took the children and went back to rest with her third cousin's family first.
Shen Hui also took the children back to the hotel to rest.
After the business was over, only Feng Haidong's parents, uncle, and cousin remained in the shop.
Feng Haidong clapped his hands and gathered all the employees in the store.
Everyone's face was covered in sweat, but they were all smiling.
Feng Haidong said, "Our business was very good today, which is inseparable from everyone's joint efforts. I am really grateful to everyone for coming to work on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. Today's business is considered closed. Everyone was great. I hope everyone can continue to show the same enthusiasm as today and make the store's business even better."
After hearing Feng Haidong's words, the employees all smiled and agreed.
Feng Haidong added, "It's getting late, everyone hurry up and clean up, then head home early. If you have a long way to go, be careful on the road."
Finally, Feng Haidong said, "If our business remains stable for the remaining days of this month, I will pay everyone their full salary at the end of the month, so I hope everyone can continue to work hard."
Hearing Feng Haidong say that everyone might receive their full month's salary this month immediately energized everyone.
After all, it's been almost half a month since the store opened.
Under normal circumstances, most places do not pay a full month's salary.
Some bosses might even deliberately give employees a few days off and then only pay them half a month's salary.
Feng Haidong was completely different; he actually promised to pay him the full month's salary.
Seeing everyone's excitement, Liu Fenzhen smiled and said, "Alright, the boss has spoken, so let's all work hard. I believe that as long as we build a good reputation, it's not impossible to earn a month's worth of money in half a month, right?"
Liu Fenzhen's words immediately excited everyone: "Yes."
After that, everyone naturally began to clean the store, both inside and out.
In particular, under Liu Fenzhen's arrangement, everyone cleaned up the road in front of the store.
It's fair to say that they ensured the area in front of the store was kept very clean and tidy.
Feng Haidong and his cousin-in-law helped Song Rui clean the kitchen.
Cleaning the kitchen is definitely hard work, so only men like Feng Haidong can do it.
By the time we finished cleaning, it was already past eleven o'clock.
Feng Haidong arranged for some of the male waiters in the store to make sure the female waiters were escorted back.
"Remember, you must get them to safety, and make sure nothing happens on the way."
The male waiters were naturally very happy to help and assured the waiter that they would definitely get the person there.
