Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 384 Qiao Zhaomei (ask for a monthly ticket)
When Chen Nian heard this, he wondered how could it be such a coincidence. He was just about to go out to the next door to ask about the situation, but just as he stepped out the door, he suddenly thought of something.

What did mom say just now?

It is said that there is a sister in the second aunt's family who wants to open a cake shop in Chengdu?
Speaking of it this way, Second Uncle seems to be... surnamed Lu?
This made Chen Nian curious: "It can't be such a coincidence, can it come so fast?"

The same surname is Lu, and they also make dim sum.

While thinking about this, Chen Nian came to the shop that his mother mentioned. This shop used to sell flowers, but according to Chen Nian's observation, there were very few customers in the other shop.

That is to say, the business is slightly better every year during festivals such as Christmas, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, and Tomb-sweeping Day that require flowers, but it can be said to be quite bleak at other times.

Although the business of Honghong Hotel has always been very good, the flower shop and the restaurant have nothing to do with each other, and Honghong Hotel has no way to attract traffic to the flower shop.

Although for many flower shops, their major customers are hotels and wedding companies, small restaurants like Honghong Hotel don't need them.

And today they just posted the news of the transfer of the store, and Feng Honghong happened to see it.

After Chen Nian entered the flower shop, he saw that the proprietress was sitting behind the counter playing with her mobile phone. The flowers in the shop didn't seem to be very angry. It was obvious that they started to be put badly after making the decision to transfer the shop.

"Boss, is your store for rent?" Chen Nian asked.

"Yes, you want..." Before he finished speaking, the boss raised his head and saw Chen Nian: "Aren't you the boss of Honghong Restaurant? Didn't you just expand the store a while ago, and now you are going to continue to expand ?”

The words are full of envy.

"That's not true. I have a cousin who plans to open a store in Chengdu. I saw the transfer information from you just after we chatted today, so I just came in to ask."

"So, what kind of store does your relative open?"

"Cake shop."

"That's pretty good. I'm planning to transfer out here. You should know the cost of water and electricity. You can pay as much as the landlord charges for the rent. But if you want to accept the transfer from my side, you have to transfer my previous experience with the landlord. The deposit over there and my rent for the second half of the year will be given to me. Besides, if you want the things in the store, I will give you a discount, and if you don’t want them, I will sell them directly.”

The old man nodded: "How much is the rent here?"

"Sixty thousand a year."

Chen Nian did some calculations in his mind, and the price of [-] is quite normal, after all, it is for rent rather than for sale.

But this is only the rent. If my cousin wants to open a cake shop, the cost of water, electricity, raw materials, and daily wear and tear will also be considered, so the cost is not small.

But Chen Nian will definitely not make decisions for the other party, all he can do is to talk about the situation on his side, and the specific situation is still up to the cousin to decide.

"Okay, then I'll go back and talk about it."

"Okay, if you want to pick me up here, please contact me at any time. The things here are very easy to deal with. It will be vacated in about two or three days. When that time comes, you should decorate earlier."

"Ok."

After Chen Nian returned to the Honghong Hotel, he told Feng Honghong what he had just seen, and then Feng Honghong called Chen Nian's second aunt for more than half an hour. There are some questions raised there.

But when Feng Honghong was calling, Chen Nian saw someone looking in at the door. Chen Nian didn't know what the other party was here for, but he didn't go out to ask.

Because there are many people who just stand at the door and take a look.

But after a while, the other party finally opened the door and came in: "Hello, I want to ask if there are still jobs here?"

When Chen Nian heard that he was here to apply for the job, Chen Nian immediately regained his energy, but Chen Nian's accent seemed to be a bit of a Cantonese accent.

"Also, there is a lack of a lottery hunter and a vegetable cutter." Chen Nian nodded and replied.

"Boss, then I want to major in one department, can I not have a few courses?"

Chen Nian thought it was so funny listening to this accent.

But fun is fun, and Chen Nian would not underestimate the applicant because of this kind of thing, after all, the first impression of this person is still very good.

At least the outside looks clean, and the person looks very neat.

"Are you okay with picking lotus and handling ingredients?" Chen Nian asked.

"No problem boss, I have work experience. I used to work in a restaurant in my hometown for three years. I have done all the stuffing and chopping you mentioned."

Hearing what the other party said, Chen Nian couldn't help being a little curious: "Then why did you come here again?"

Then Chen Nian saw the other party scratching his head in embarrassment: "Because I feel that I am different from other Cantonese people. Their food is too light, and I prefer spicy food with a slightly stronger taste. , so I came to Sichuan, anyway, as long as you are not in your hometown, no matter if you are in Guangzhou or Chengdu, you are working outside, the same."

"Yes, but we want a longer-term one here, I wonder if you can accept it?"

"No problem. My girlfriend is from Sichuan. Now she is working in Chengdu. I still want to develop here in the future."

"What's your name?"

"Qiao Zhaomei." After he finished speaking, he was a little embarrassed: "I am the second in the family, but my parents always wanted a daughter, and they were very disappointed after giving birth to me, so they named me Qiao Zhaomei, and finally They literally gave me another sister."

"Okay." Chen Nian nodded after listening, "Then it's not convenient for you to show off your ability now. If you can, this interview will be passed temporarily. If you have any questions, you can ask them now or later. .”

Qiao Zhaomei looked at Chen Nian, then at Xie Yu and He Hai who were staring at him curiously in the kitchen: "Boss, I'd better do the first department first, and if I can pass, I'll ask you."

Afterwards, Chen Nian took the other party to the kitchen, took out some vegetables and meat, and asked the other party to see it carefully.

I saw Qiao Zhaomei first picked up the ingredients to check whether they were clean, then picked up the knife and rinsed it on the water pipe, and finally wiped it dry with a rag before starting to cut.

It seems that the movements are quite skilled, especially when cutting the meat, against the grain of the meat, the cut meat slices are uniform in thickness and basically the same size.

While the other party was cutting the meat, Chen Nian asked the other party a few questions about processing the lotus.

As a result, Qiao Zhaomei also answered.

"Yes, do you smoke?"

"No." Qiao Zhaomei shook her head.

"Okay, then you can ask anything you want to ask."
