Chapter 712 Win-Win Cooperation
What are you queuing for?
A maidservant from an unknown household asked.
There was a long queue in front of her, but she couldn't see what was at the very front.
The woman at the back of the line turned around when she heard the question and said, "We're queuing for iced drinks at Xiangmingxuan."
After the woman finished speaking, she caught a glimpse of a carriage parked not far away, bearing the Xiao family's insignia.
Looking at the maid in front of her, she guessed that she must be a maid from the Xiao family.
"Xiangmingxuan? Cold drinks?" The maid frowned.
"Yes! Xiangmingxuan's perilla bayberry drink, brown sugar osmanthus ice jelly, and jasmine tea jelly are all so delicious! It's just that there are too many people, and I don't know if we'll be able to get a table today."
The woman sighed as she spoke.
The maid frowned even more deeply.
Thinking back on all these years with the second young lady, what haven't I seen?
This person is Shuang'er, the maid of Xiao Nian, the second young lady of the Xiao family.
After gathering some information, Shuang'er returned to the carriage and said, "Miss, they all say that the drinks at Xiangmingxuan are good. Do you need me to go and buy some for you?"
Even though there are many people, there must be a way to get in line.
Xiao Nian lifted a corner of the carriage curtain and looked into the crowd.
She was initially hesitant.
Then she saw Wan Qiqi and Chen Yongnian walk into Xiangmingxuan.
Furthermore, the people at Xiangmingxuan treated Wan Qiqi with utmost respect.
Xiao Nian's face immediately fell, and she said coldly, "Why is she everywhere!"
"Who?" Shuang'er asked, confused.
She was standing at the back of the crowd and couldn't see what was inside.
Xiao Nian could see what was happening inside the carriage.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go back to the manor! What a bad day!"
Although Shuang'er didn't understand, she still obediently got into the carriage.
The Xiao family's carriage sped along the long street, attracting Chen Yongnian's attention.
However, he only glanced at it twice before immediately snapping back to his senses and looking at Wan Qiqi, "Is this the fun place you were talking about?"
Wan Qiqi looked at Wu Gousheng, who was busy to the point of exhaustion, and shrugged, "Never mind what I said!"
She found a seat among the staff, propped her head up, and watched the busy employees without offering to help.
"Not going to help?" Chen Yongnian asked.
"Do you know who the biggest beneficiary of this Xiangmingxuan tea shop is?" Wan Qiqi blinked.
Chen Yongnian looked in the direction Wan Qiqi was looking, "Gou Sheng?"
"Smart!" Wan Qiqi praised, then added, "So since he didn't offer to help, let's not go and join in the fun!"
Chen Yongnian: "..."
Why did he feel that his wife's smile was somewhat cunning?
These people were clearly too busy to talk, yet the wife still claimed she hadn't offered to help.
Wan Qiqi didn't care and watched quietly.
In her view, Wu Gousheng needs to grow up independently, instead of always being under her protection.
As she expands her business in the future, she will need more people to help her manage it.
Wu Gousheng had always been with him and knew the most about the catering industry.
Start with a beverage shop, start with a small shop, let the other person get used to what it's like to be their own boss, and learn how to manage.
Only then will I feel at ease entrusting bigger businesses to Wu Gousheng.
"Manager Wu, we're out of black tea!" shouted the waiter at Xiangmingxuan.
"Okay! Okay! I'll make it right away!" Wu Gousheng's tone was impatient.
He squeezed through the crowd of workers and headed towards the small kitchen.
As soon as he squeezed out, Wu Gousheng saw Wan Qiqi sitting there.
He hurriedly said, "Sister Qi, sister... please help me, please hire a few helpers, I'm just too busy to handle this!"
After Wu Gousheng finished speaking, he went to the small kitchen to prepare things.
Wan Qiqi changed her seat again. "I remember reminding you before the opening that I would guarantee we'd have enough staff. Who assured me that we definitely would?"
Wu Gousheng poured tea leaves into boiling water, turned the hourglass, and looked at Wan Qiqi helplessly, "Sister, you didn't tell me that business would be this good?"
Wan Qiqi shrugged, looking like it was none of her business.
Wu Gousheng could only look at Chen Yongnian, his face full of grievance: "Brother-in-law, you have to help me, my sister has abandoned me!"
"I can't do anything about it, I'll listen to her!" Chen Yongnian looked at Wan Qiqi with eyes full of doting affection.
"This is outrageous!" Wu Gousheng cried out in anguish.
I'm already so busy I'm dizzy, and on top of that, I have to watch people being all lovey-dovey.
He felt this was utterly outrageous!
However, he was just making casual remarks.
Only he knows the kindness Sister Qi has shown him; he can never repay it in his lifetime!
After observing for a while, Wan Qiqi decided not to disturb Wu Gousheng and left Xiangmingxuan with Chen Yongnian.
Just then, Aji, unable to find Wan Qiqi, was about to go to Xiangmingxuan when he saw her coming out of Xiangmingxuan.
When Wan Qiqi saw Aji, she smiled and asked, "Have you thought it through?"
“I’ve thought it through. As you suggested, I’ll change the operating hours.” Aji said, turning to look at Kelaiju. “Could I trouble Mr. Wan to help me change the layout?”
If Wan Qiqi's idea is correct, starting from the hour of You (5-7 PM), the restaurant will start having song and dance performances for people to drink, so the current seating arrangement seems to need to be changed.
“Of course!” Wan Qiqi smiled and extended her hand to Chen Yongnian.
Chen Yongnian was taken aback, then understood, took out the blueprint from his pocket and placed it in Wan Qiqi's hand.
At first, he wondered why his wife would draw such a strange blueprint herself.
Now, comparing it with the structure of Kelaiju, I suddenly understand.
Chen Yongnian admired Wan Qiqi from the bottom of his heart. Not only could she foresee Aji's choice in advance, but she could also prepare the blueprints.
Everything was planned.
Using such a mind for business is truly a waste of talent.
