As it turns out, the seemingly omnipotent social media circle isn't always so omnipotent.
Xu An posted his job ad three days ago, and apart from a string of '666' and other teasing comments, no one has messaged him privately.
Ultimately, Xu An found seven human resources companies online. After considering factors such as reputation and distance, he chose one large and one small company to register his information and entrusted them to help with recruitment.
Besides requiring excellent professional skills and being honest and upright, speed is also essential!
Judging from the actions of the Yipinxiang fast food restaurant owner yesterday, many restaurants already know about this news and are all eager to try their luck.
They may not necessarily lack chefs, but what if they do?
Eleven o'clock.
After the employees finished their lunch break, they returned to their posts and got busy. Xu An also went to the second store to load the boxed lunches onto the small truck.
Suddenly, six furtive figures appeared at the entrance of Xu's Fast Food Restaurant.
All six wore masks to cover their faces, sunglasses on their noses, and their hair was wrapped tightly with scarves.
Aside from their figures and attire, which suggested they were middle-aged women in their forties or fifties, nothing else was known about them.
The person at the front looked up at the shop sign and read out the name of the shop word by word: "Xu Shi Kuai Can, this is the shop! I've told you all the precautions, right? We need to be discreet and not get discovered."
The five people behind him nodded in unison and followed the leader into the store.
They had only taken two steps when Grandma Xu called out to them, "Are you here to eat? Come here to pay the bill first, then go over there to get your food."
The six people stopped in their tracks, hesitated for a moment, then turned around and walked to the cashier. They lowered their voices and whispered in Grandma Xu's ear, "Auntie, does He Jiaojiao work in this store? We need to talk to her."
"He Jiaojiao? Who is that? I don't know her." The group was already acting suspiciously, and now they said they weren't here for dinner but to find someone. Grandma Xu's first reaction was that these people wanted to cause trouble for Aunt He, so she waved her hands repeatedly to deny it.
"Don't you recognize it? Did we go to the wrong place? Sister He said it's Xu's Fast Food!" As the leader of the group of six, she went outside to confirm the address again. Just as she was about to call the others, she found that the other five people were standing in front of the hot food counter, whispering to each other.
What are these five up to?!
The captain walked over somewhat angrily, and as he got closer, he heard the five men whispering among themselves.
"Sister Zhou, look what this dish is. It looks like that sweet and sour meat dish, what's it called again?"
"Isn't it called sweet and sour pork?"
"Yes, sweet and sour pork with pineapple. Look, you can even see the pineapple next to it! What kind of cooking is this potato? I've never seen it before."
"Yes, but it smells really good, salty and fragrant."
"This...this..."
The man in the lead stood on tiptoe and looked ahead, seeing four dishes piled high on the hot food counter: sweet and sour pork with pineapple, shredded pork with green peppers, stir-fried bok choy with minced pork, and wolf tooth potatoes.
Wow, this dish looks really good, quite appealing.
No, no! We're here to rescue Aunt He from her dire straits, not to see what to eat at this restaurant!
Just as they were about to call out to the others, Zhou Qi suddenly spoke up: "Auntie, there's still soup here, loofah and sliced pork soup, it's very sweet and delicious!"
As soon as the soup lid was lifted, the sweet aroma of loofah wafted out, making one's mouth water.
They had only eaten lunch before rushing over, and now, smelling the aroma of the food, their stomachs were rumbling.
"How about we give it a try?" one of them said cautiously. "After all, the old lady said that you have no right to speak if you don't try. We haven't even tried it, how can we convince her, right?"
The other four, who had been itching to join in, immediately nodded in agreement upon hearing this. But when they turned around, they saw their captain peeking out from behind them on tiptoe.
"I just wanted to see what you guys were doing! Have you forgotten why we came here today? You can't even walk away when you see food!" Upon seeing this, the captain immediately took the initiative and reprimanded the five of them.
"It's time to eat. Let's eat first, it's okay if it's just a meal or two." The group shoved their leader to the cashier and asked softly, "Auntie, how much is a fast food meal?"
"Eight yuan for three dishes and a soup, and you can eat as much rice as you like."
"Hey, all done!" Everyone pulled out their wallets to pay, when suddenly someone's nose twitched, and they said with some confusion, "What's that smell? It smells so good!"
Upon hearing this, the others finally smelled the delicious aroma. Looking around, they suddenly noticed a table on the left side of the door with four stainless steel basins on it, from which the fragrance was emanating.
One of them leaned over for a look and said in surprise, "Isn't this braised food?"
Immediately, everyone else stopped eating and gathered around to watch the excitement.
"Oh, it really is braised food."
"The price is quite cheap, why don't we buy some to try?"
After discussing it, the group each contributed one yuan, totaling six yuan, and bought a little over a pound of vegetarian braised dishes. They ordered five yuan worth of the original flavor and one yuan worth of the spicy flavor.
After getting my food, I looked up and saw an apple cider vinegar poster on the freezer.
"Isn't this that apple cider vinegar? I saw its poster at the bus stop. It says it's good for your health. It's only a dollar. Want to buy a can?"
Having acquired everything from the shop, the six of them sat together contentedly and began their culinary journey.
