Chapter 543 PUA Master
The front hall of the restaurant.
Erpang explored all three floors and was drawn to the second-floor terrace, but no one knew what the terrace was actually used for.
He was on the first floor when the restaurant staff greeted him and asked him a few basic questions.
Several people offered accurate solutions, while others seemed confused and unsure of what to do.
Erpang glanced at the people who answered; they were several people he had recruited in town before, and it seemed they had even been under Feng Gan's command.
Thinking that these people knew a lot, he asked each of them to train a novice so that they could better handle the upcoming opening.
Zhu Youcai stood on the counter, looking at the scene with an expression of appreciation in his eyes.
Wan Qiqi also quietly came over while Erpang was giving a lecture. Zhu Youcai saw her, but before he could speak, he was stopped by the newcomer.
In fact, among the people who came out of Lianhua Village, besides Chen Yongliang and Wu Gousheng who have changed significantly, Erpang's progress is also obvious to all.
Unlike Tie Niu, he wasn't eager for quick success and was honest and upright in his conduct. But in reality, Er Pang was very clever.
His intelligence lies not in being witty, but in his ability to read people and communicate effectively.
He is willing to admit his mistakes instead of getting stuck on them and confining himself to one place.
So, this chubby guy was chosen by Wan Qiqi to be a new employee at the Yunhe County store.
Erpang's flaws are also obvious. He has a kind appearance and is not arrogant, which makes it difficult for his subordinates to trust him.
For example, his appearance and arrangements have caused dissatisfaction among many employees.
In their eyes, this man was just a fat country bumpkin; what right did he have to tell them what to do?
Many of the people we recruited have experience working in restaurants; they're not complete novices.
As for why he came to the new restaurant, it's naturally because he had some problems and didn't do well at the original restaurant, which is why he changed jobs.
Just as these people were about to speak up against Erpang, Wan Qiqi quietly stood behind Erpang.
They were dissatisfied with Erpang, but dared not talk back to Wan Qiqi.
Just two days ago, Wan Qiqi had taught a lesson to a troublemaker and fired him.
Even those who didn't like the female shopkeeper had heard rumors about Wan Qiqi and knew that she had a husband who worked in the county government, so they didn't dare to offend her easily.
Erpang quickly realized someone was behind him. After everyone dispersed, he turned around, looked at the person behind him, lowered his head, and said, "Sister Qi, did I not do a good enough job?"
"No, you did a great job." Wan Qiqi patted Erpang's shoulder and said with a smile, "Now you are the supervisor, you need to show your authority so that others will listen to you, instead of being gentle and soft-spoken like before."
Erpang hesitated for a long time before finally nodding and replying, "Okay, I understand!"
At the same time, Zhu Chengye came downstairs, walked over with a smile, and said, "Erpang, do a good job. Manager Wan values you, that's why she transferred you to the county and promoted you to foreman. You can't let her down."
"Manager Zhu, I will do my job well." Erpang's eyes were even more determined.
As Wan Qiqi listened to Zhu Chengye's PUA tactics on Erpang, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: If we're talking about who's the best at PUA techniques, Manager Zhu of Xinglong Restaurant is number one.
Zhu Chengye talked with Erpang for a while before finally letting him go. He then turned to Wan Qiqi and said, "Qiqi, the restaurant is almost ready. The eighth day of this month is the auspicious day for the opening."
Wan Qiqi calculated the time; it was already the fifth day of the fourth lunar month, and there were only two days left until the eighth day.
She couldn't help but look back at the restaurant's current state and said, "The setup is almost done, but the waiters still need training. It would be best if they could memorize the menu so they can recommend dishes to customers."
This time, Wan Qiqi did not require these people to register the dishes ordered by the guests themselves. Instead, she ordered a batch of bamboo skewers engraved with the names of the dishes, and even matched them with the table numbers. This way, she could quickly and clearly know which people ordered which dishes.
Besides Zhu Youcai, another literate person was hired at the counter to register the dishes and assist Zhu Youcai.
Unlike Hefeng Town, Yunhe County has a large restaurant but is temporarily short-staffed, so specific methods must be used to avoid problems.
“Most people can make recommendations, but they might not be able to manage the private rooms upstairs,” Zhu Chengye said.
"Erpang went up to the third floor and dealt with the emergency on the second floor. I'll still keep the kitchen in charge. You can handle the first floor. Gousheng can go wherever he needs help."
After making the arrangements, Wan Qiqi felt that there were still some manpower shortages, and said, "We need to hire at least one more cook for the kitchen. Lei Zi will help out for now, but he will have to go back to town later."
Panda and Lei have been a team for several years, and it would not be a wise move to break them up.
It would be ideal if they were in charge of things in the town.
“There are quite a few chefs, but none of them meet your requirements. You'll just have to take your time and see,” Zhu Chengye said with a sigh.
"It's alright, we can take it slow. Let's get the opening ceremony sorted out first." Wan Qiqi smiled.
As they were talking, they had already walked to the counter.
"We don't have enough staff. We need to hire a few flexible people to manage the private rooms on the second and third floors. I also need a chef and a waiter for the terrace."
Wan Qiqi couldn't help but wonder whether the terrace should be opened when the business opens, as there seemed to be no suitable candidate.
"What exactly are you planning to do on the terrace? You still haven't told me," Zhu Chengye said, tilting his head.
Wan Qiqi couldn't help but admire Zhu Chengye's courage. Even though he knew everything, he still supported her and made changes according to her requirements.
"I plan to open a standalone shop, specializing in selling snacks and drinks, like Zuijianglou," she said, a confident smile curving her lips.
