Chapter 581 Strike Forces Online
Niuyi was closed for two days.
Although he was a gambler, he was always diligent and conscientious at work, not only doing his own job well but also helping others.
Therefore, during the two days he was absent from work, there were many things left undone.
"Hey, what have you guys been up to these past few days? Why haven't you come to the restaurant?"
“What else can he do? When he came back from visiting Manager Wan that day, he seemed distracted. I’m afraid Manager Wan said something to hurt him.”
Hong Tian had just returned to the kitchen after delivering the groceries when he heard the commotion inside. He couldn't help but scold, "What are you saying? Is my sister-in-law that kind of person? She's been so good to us, and you're all talking badly about her behind her back."
“We’re just stating the facts,” someone countered.
After one person objected, others began to speak up for Niuyi.
“I think Niu Yi’s absence is a sign of dissatisfaction. He finally developed a new pastry, but Manager Wan wouldn’t let him serve it.”
"Yes, his desserts are quite delicious."
"I agree. They're not only delicious, but also beautiful. They're comparable to the pastries at Zuijianglou!"
The series of people speaking in succession infuriated Hong Tian, who said, "My sister-in-law, as the owner of Xinglong Hotel, naturally has her own arrangements. What do you workers know!"
“We don’t know what our employers are thinking, but we know that we’ll be disappointed if we put in so much effort and don’t get the corresponding return.”
"Exactly! Niuyi has always been so dedicated to the restaurant and has always done a great job with the dim sum. Manager Wan's actions are really heartbreaking!"
“I think the owner is trying to control us. He’s reluctant to pay us high wages, but he’s also afraid we’ll leave the restaurant.”
Lei Zi, who was standing at the kitchen door, heard this and scoffed, "Who do you think you are? Or are we just reluctant to let you go? Who do you think you are?"
“I know my own level, and I also know some people who were driven out of Yunhe County for offending others. People are bound by their word; if you accept a favor, you'll naturally speak up for them,” said a thin, short man.
His words drew everyone's attention and made everyone feel as if they had suddenly realized something.
Lei Zi's face immediately darkened, and he said, "This is one thing, why are you talking nonsense? Everyone who works with the two bosses knows how good they are to their employees. It's just you who like to gossip!"
"How are we gossiping? We're stating the facts. Just tell me, you've been in the kitchen for so long, how come you haven't come up with anything new?"
"Exactly! This is targeting those of us who came later. They're making new things but not letting us use them, trying to wear us down so they can save this money!"
"If that's the case, what's the point of us continuing?"
Lei Zi glanced at these people, said nothing, and didn't want to waste words with them.
Hong Tian was still struggling, "I think what you're saying is wrong. My sister-in-law and Manager Zhu are not like what you're saying!"
"That's not how it works, then show me the proof!"
"If you're so capable, put the new pastries on the shelves and sell them to prove us wrong."
"Yes, put the new products on the shelves!"
New products are now available!
"New products are now available!!!"
When the kitchen staff shouted in unison, Hong Tian was so frightened that he took two steps back, vaguely sensing that these people were trying to force the owner to put new products on the shelves.
Lei Zi looked at these people indifferently and glanced out the window.
Even before he entered, Wu Gousheng was already standing at the window, silently observing the movements inside and taking in everything.
Upon seeing that the people inside were about to strike and protest, he took off running, heading straight for the third floor of the restaurant.
Wan Qiqi sat in the study with her legs crossed, eating candied fruit while flipping through the account book, sighing about her expenses in Yunhe County.
Although the prices at restaurants are high, the costs are also high, and there are all sorts of expenses, all of which are recorded in the restaurant's accounts.
In addition, there's a cut from the owner's share, so the actual profit and money received is even less!
In addition, Wan Qiqi also discovered some minor issues with the accounts.
Although they may seem insignificant, they add up to a considerable amount, which is a burden for restaurants these days.
Suddenly, the study door was pushed open.
Wu Gousheng rushed over in a hurry, and tripped on the threshold as he entered, almost falling to the ground.
"Are you in such a hurry? Why are you rushing around like this?" Wan Qiqi asked, tilting her head as she closed the ledger.
"There's no fire, but it's no worse than a fire!" Wu Gousheng staggered a few steps and slumped onto the table. "Sister, let me tell you, all the people in the kitchen who want to cause trouble have already agreed to go on strike."
Wan Qiqi tilted her head, a thought suddenly forming in her mind.
Some people can't hide it anymore!
The people in the kitchen are an unstable factor; if they are not handled properly, it will affect the restaurant's business.
She could use this opportunity to thoroughly investigate and see if these people were human or demons!
"What did they say?" Wan Qiqi asked.
"It's about Niuyi and the snacks!" Wu Gousheng replied, not forgetting to complain, "You know, Niuyi is a real troublemaker. He gambles and owes money, and not only does he not come to work, but he also caused this mess!"
"Snacks?" Wan Qiqi ran her fingers across the ledger, then smiled and said, "Alright, since they want me to introduce new snacks, then I will. Make the peach blossom pastry a flagship product."
Wu Gousheng was stunned.
"You, go and bring Niu Yi back!" Wan Qiqi pointed at Wu Gousheng.
"Sister, do you know what you're saying? You want me to invite him?" Wu Gousheng looked incredulous, his eyes trembling slightly.
Wan Qiqi said casually, "Just do me a favor and make an appearance."
