Zhao Dafa smiled widely, "Sister Shen, you are too polite. Although you and Pei Yang are young, I am not as good as you in terms of ability. Especially little Pei, the young are really formidable."

"Brother Zhao, you are being too modest. You were able to start from scratch and build your current family business in such a difficult time. Who wouldn't say you are a great talent? Mingzhu and I are far behind you."

After Pei Yang responded, he picked up his cup and clinked it with Zhao Dafa's.

"Brother Zhao, I respect you."

"Okay, let's have a drink."

Seeing Pei Yang drinking with Zhao Dafa, Shen Mingzhu also smiled and invited Zhao Yun and Zhou Hui, mother and daughter, to eat.

"Aunt Mingzhu, I'm welcome."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yun had already picked up the chopsticks and accurately picked up a fried mantis shrimp.

The mantis shrimp is not very big, only half the length of a chopstick, but it is presented exquisitely. It is golden in color under the light, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, very tempting.

Seeing Zhao Yun putting the shrimp directly into his mouth, Shen Mingzhu hurriedly spoke out to stop him.

"Be careful of the shrimp shell cutting your mouth."

The waiter on the side came forward attentively, "Little brother, let me peel the shell for you."

Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment and handed the shrimp to the waiter.

The waiter, wearing gloves, quickly peeled off the hard shells of the mantis shrimps, then put the light pink shrimp meat back into the shells. He then used a spoon to scoop some stir-fried ingredients from the plate and spread them evenly on the shrimp meat before handing the shrimp meat back to Zhao Yun.

"Little brother, you can eat now."

The whole process takes no more than twenty seconds.

Liang Xiaowen immediately shouted: "Mom, I want to eat mantis shrimp."

Zhao Yun was about to open his mouth to eat the shrimp meat, but when he heard this, he retorted, "You are so old, and you still call mom when you eat. You don't have hands, so you can't pick it up by yourself if you want to."

Liang Xiaowen pointed at the waitress coquettishly, "I want her to help me peel the shrimp shells, too."

Hearing this, Zhou Hui immediately and unceremoniously ordered the waiter, "Peel another one."

The waiter walked over to Liang Xiaowen, picked up the plate, selected a mantis shrimp from the plate and began to peel it.

Zhao Dafa was born in the lower class, and he kept the kindness of the working people in his heart. Seeing the mother and daughter enslaving the waiter, he said: "If you want to eat, peel it yourself. Don't bother the waiter for everything. He has other work to do."

"Brother Zhao, this is actually a new service in our restaurant. Shrimp and crabs are delicious, but peeling them is troublesome and can easily hurt your hands. From now on, all foods with shells or bones in the restaurant will be peeled by our waiters."

After listening to Shen Mingzhu's explanation, Zhao Dafa couldn't help feeling curious.

It's not like he hasn't been to high-end restaurants before, and he's enjoyed services like serving dishes, soup, and deboning, but this is the first time he's encountered someone helping him peel shrimp and crab shells.

"What if everyone at the table is waiting for the waiter to peel the juice? Will they be able to do it?" Zhou Hui asked.

"Our waiters have all been strictly trained. It takes no more than 20 seconds to peel a mantis shrimp. Together with other things, it takes an average of half a minute to serve one customer. One waiter is more than enough for every four customers."

As Shen Mingzhu finished speaking, the waiter had already peeled the mantis shrimp for Liang Xiaowen and came to Zhou Hui to serve her.

Zhao Dafa praised: "This is great service. I love eating crabs. Sometimes I see crabs on the table and want to eat them, but I can't ignore the customers and just peel the crabs and eat them. My hands are greasy from peeling them. How can I do business?"

Shen Mingzhu nodded. "That's right, Brother Zhao. You are very experienced. If you have other good suggestions, feel free to give them."

Zhao Dafa chuckled, "Then let her peel a shrimp for me first, so that I can enjoy the service as well."

"Sister Feng, when you finish peeling this one, go peel two for Brother Zhao."

After hearing the conversation between the two, Zhao Dafa looked at Feng Huiying curiously, "Oh, it's really Sister Feng. I didn't notice it just now."

Feng Huiying smiled at Zhao Dafa kindly, "Boss Zhao, long time no see."

Zhao Dafa nodded and looked at her clothes again, "Why, are you working here?"

"Yes, the factory closed down and I have been laid off for almost half a year."

Shen Mingzhu then began to explain: "Sister Feng came to work in the store three months ago. To be honest, with Sister Feng's qualifications and abilities, she is more than qualified to be a foreman."

"But the store has rules and regulations. Management must be promoted from within. This is also an incentive and commitment I give to my employees as a boss."

"Fortunately, Sister Feng trusts me and supports my work. She is willing to start over from the bottom. Although Sister Feng is only a waitress now, I believe that by this time next year, she will be promoted to foreman or lobby manager."

Zhao Dafa nodded continuously, "Very good, I think this promotion mechanism is very good. People promoted from within the organization are not only loyal, but also reliable in their work."

Shen Mingzhu smiled, "Brother Zhao, I feel relieved to have your understanding."

After saying that, he turned to look at Zhou Hui who was standing beside him, "Sister Hui, I have already told Manager Zhu about your fourth sister. If she is willing to come, she can start working directly without an interview, but she still has to start as a waitress in the early stages. However, I can guarantee that within my jurisdiction, capable people will definitely be promoted and reused."

Zhou Hui finally understood that Shen Mingzhu's real purpose for this meal was not to drink, but to give her a lesson.

But she couldn't say anything yet.

She had no choice but to say that Zhou Xue had found a job and let the matter go.

The matter was over, but she couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart.

She felt that Shen Mingzhu was just pretending. What was the point of talking about rules and regulations? She was the boss and had the final say.

There's nothing to be proud of.

Things change over time, so it’s best not to ask her for help.

Pei Yang continued drinking with Zhao Dafa, while Feng Huiying was responsible for peeling shrimps and crabs for Zhao Yun and Zhou Hui, mother and daughter. Shen Mingzhu finally had time to take care of the two children.

When I turned my head, I saw my daughter holding a pink mantis shrimp, her pink and white cheeks were puffy, and she was eating it with relish.

Looking at my son again, his profile is delicate, his eyebrows and eyes are cool, and he is concentrating on peeling crabs.

Her son was only nine years old, but he made her feel calm and secure.

"Ziheng."

Pei Ziheng was slightly stunned when he saw the shrimp meat being handed to his mouth.

"Ah, open your mouth."

Pei Ziheng obediently opened his mouth and ate the shrimp she fed him. A look of satisfaction appeared on his pretty face, and his black eyes were shining brightly.

"Thank you, Mom."

"Is it tasty?"

"Um."

Zhao Yun looked at Shen Mingzhu's care for Pei Ziheng with envy in his eyes, and even the peeled crab roe no longer smelled good to him.

Noticing his son's loneliness, Zhao Dafa glanced at Zhou Hui, who was picking up food for his daughter, and drank the wine in his glass. (End of this chapter)
