Although the town is not far away, after the training, these people basically go out to work.
Lin Mo didn't care about the two men, but he still had to make it clear in advance about the boy and girl, so that their families wouldn't disagree with them staying outside for a long time, which would waste the training time in vain.
"Lin Mo, when can we go home? Where will we live then? It doesn't matter to us two grown men where we live, but will these girls and boys live with us?" The thinner of the two men spoke.
Lin Mo waved his hand and said gently, "Don't worry, I have a place to stay in the shop in town. When the time comes, you guys and gals will have separate dormitories, and you can have three meals a day in the shop. As for when to go home, you can rest assured. You will have five days off every month."
"You can choose to take consecutive days off, or you can choose to take breaks whenever you want, but you can't all take breaks at the same time. We're in the food business, so there have to be people in the shop at all times. So no more than three of you can take a break at a time, and you have to take turns. I'll specify the details in the contract when the time comes."
When they heard this, they became excited instantly, especially the two men. They had been working in the town for years. This kind of long-term job with free food, accommodation and holidays was a good job that was hard to find even with a lantern.
"Lin Mo, don't worry, we will definitely study hard. As long as you are willing to hire us to work, we will definitely not let you down."
"That's right, Lin Mo, don't look for anyone else, just ask us. No matter what you want us to do, we will do it well!" Wang Gangtie couldn't help but speak up. "Don't look at me because I'm fat. I'm just a bunch of fat. I do all the farm work at home by myself. I'm very flexible."
Su Mu told her yesterday that Lin Mo asked him to find someone, but he might not accept all of them. It also depends on whether Lin Mo will choose them. If Lin Mo doesn't want them, there's nothing he can do. Thinking of this, Wang Gangtie couldn't help but feel anxious and flustered.
Her fat body always made people think that she was clumsy, and she was afraid that Lin Mo thought so too.
Don’t let the people she brings be chosen by Lin Mo, and she herself be the one who is not selected.
"Don't worry, it's raining today, so we can't learn anything. Let's just talk about the rules first. Besides what I just mentioned, there's the issue of wages. The wages for waiters in the town's restaurants are between 23 and 25 copper coins a day, but that only covers lunch. You should know this wage if you go to town frequently."
The two men who often went to the town to work nodded repeatedly. This wage was indeed the normal price. However, even if Lin Mo paid a lower wage, they would be willing to do it, because when looking for work in the town, two or three out of ten people were often not found, and these were not regular workers, but short-term workers, who would be gone after working for two or three days.
Lin Mo took a sip of water before continuing, "My wages will be lower because I provide accommodation and three meals, which are free of charge. So the wages are 20 wen a day, which is 600 wen a month. This wage is not fixed. I will increase your wages every once in a while. If you do a good job, I will also give you rewards based on your performance."
The six people nodded repeatedly, their eyes shining as they looked at Lin Mo. Not to mention the rewards, just the salary that Lin Mo mentioned was enough to attract so many people. The fact that food and accommodation were provided was enough to make them very tempted.
Several people excitedly asked Lin Mo questions one after another, and they even wanted to start right away.
"Don't get too excited yet. We'll know whether it works or not after the training is over. I don't have many kitchen knives at home, so starting tomorrow, each of you will bring one to practice..."
Lin Mo briefly explained the task and agreed on a time with several people. The shop was still under renovation, and this period of time was just right for training these people. He wanted to assign them respective tasks based on their basic foundation.
When the few of them left, the rain had subsided a lot. They did not go home directly, but followed Wang Gangtie back. In front of Lin Mo, they did not want to talk much with Su Mu.
Several people knew that when Lin Mo was looking for people to work in the village, he would first find the village chief and ask the village chief to look for people in the village, just like when the Lin family was building a house and looking for someone to help with cooking. If the village chief was looking for people, it would not be their turn.
Now they have this opportunity thanks to Su Mu. Several people kept thanking Wang Gangtie, and at the same time, they did not forget to ask Wang Gangtie to thank Su Mu on their behalf.
Among them, the boys and girls whose families were strict and not allowed to go out in public started brainwashing their elders when they returned home. Lin Mo said that if the elders were worried, they could go to the store to see their living quarters and working environment. Therefore, the few of them were excited and happy when they talked about it. Before they even went to the town, they had already started to imagine their life after going there.
The next day, everyone arrived at the Lin family on time, each holding a kitchen knife in their hands. In the yard, Lin Mo had already set up the table and was waiting for them.
Because it rained yesterday, the muddy yard was a little wet and sticky, and the mud would stick to your feet. But the kitchen was small and couldn't accommodate so many people, so I could only teach them in the yard.
Lin Mo first simply cleaned a fish, and then asked everyone to do the same. It was almost as Lin Mo expected. They all cleaned it relatively cleanly, but their speed varied. Only Lu Amo was the fastest.
Lin Mo taught everything carefully, from cleaning to slicing the fish to making the soup. Cleaning the fish scales and slicing the fish required practice and speed, while making the soup was relatively simple, as one only needed to keep an eye on the heat, because the base ingredients were all prepared by Su Mu in advance.
"What we did today is what you will do in the future. Everyone must learn these steps. I will divide the work among you. Two people will clean the fish, two will be responsible for slicing, and the other two will be responsible for cooking the side dishes."
"These steps are not fixed. You will take turns doing them. For example, you two can fillet the fish today, and cook the side dishes tomorrow."
Because killing fish is the most tedious part, it cannot be done by two designated people all the time. Otherwise, it will take a long time and the water that has been soaking in it for a long time will definitely not be able to withstand it. If everyone takes a turn, everyone can take a break.
"You're still unfamiliar with the technique and I understand your slowness. You need to practice hard during this period and increase your speed."
After Lin Mo demonstrated several times, he began to marinate the fish fillets. Today, in addition to pickled fish, he would also teach them how to make spicy boiled fish fillets.
