The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan
Chapter 108 Blood
Chapter 108 Blood
The decoration of the new store of Dumpling Restaurant is coming to an end. Xiaogao and Tuya Qiqige led the staff to enter the store for preliminary sanitation and cleaning.
Yaru came to the provincial capital five days ago, and Lao Tan arranged to work in the old shop and learn how to make dumplings at the pastry.
Seeing Yaru again after six years feels like a world away. Seeing her former lover standing in front of me, and turning from a simple girl into a mature woman, I feel sorry for the passing of time but also for the love in my life. Fate feels amazing - who would have thought to meet and work together again on this occasion.
Yaru's mood was agitated and complicated, but her expression was calm. She looked at Lao Tan with a smile, then took out the loose baijiu she brought him, and then took out his favorite Fuxin specialty—dog meat.
"Drink less, a meal of two or three is enough, you are almost forty." Yaru said softly.
"Well, drink less." Old Tan nodded with a smile.
"It's enough to have a place to live here. My mother and father are old and don't want to go back to their parents' house, so as not to cause trouble for them." Yaru said.
"It's all arranged, let's make dumplings first, and then learn to adjust the stuffing." Old Tan said.
"Hehe, just make dumplings, I'm stupid, I can't learn how to adjust the stuffing. Does your child go to school too?"
"Go to school, two years soon."
"It's so fast, the children have grown up like this in a short while - we are all old." Yaru smiled.
"It's not so fast-you haven't changed much, you're still the same as before."
"I'm getting old too—the crow's feet have come out. I'm heartless and don't look old. Hehe, you're still the same, but you're getting fat. Eat less meat and drink less alcohol. High blood pressure, right? Don't stay up late."
"Um--"
The two sat in the small restaurant next to the dumpling restaurant, and Lao Tan ate dog meat and drank wine.Yaru eats very little and talks more.
"I can still have work at home, but I don't want to do it—I'm divorced, I feel bad, I want to stay away from home to save trouble—I don't know anyone, I think of you, I'm here I can't trouble you, can I?" Yaru asked understandingly.
"What's the trouble? No trouble. There is a shortage of people right now, so it's just right for you to come." Old Tan said.
"I think the business of this dumpling restaurant is pretty good, boss, your friend?" Yaru asked.
"Well, my friend."
"Two female bosses—by the way, is Aunt Huang still running a restaurant?" Yaru asked Huang Ping, the owner of Rose Restaurant on Taishan Road.
"No, she and her second brother are divorced, and the eldest girl is playing volleyball in Japan. You should remember that Tingting is tall and has liked volleyball since she was a child. She went to Japan before graduating from university. She has developed very well. Also in Japan." Old Tan said.
"Oh—Tingting is a big man, but she doesn't like to study—where's Lao Fat?"
Yaru recalled the scene when she was working at the Rose Hotel, and remembered Huang Ping's son Lao Fat—the fat boy she brought up since childhood.
"I'm in college, I heard I'm in Beijing." Old Tan said, "It's been a long time since I've been in touch. Sometimes I go to Taishan Road, and occasionally I remember—"
The two chatted aimlessly, all about things from the past.
Only these things that the two of them experienced together and left a deep impression on in the past can evoke memories. The two people who reunited have emotions and sighs when they revisit the past.
We all hope to start over the past again and make up for the shortcomings left by the experience again, but those shortcomings are the most beautiful nostalgia in life——
When we can correctly deal with these shortcomings, it is a sign of our maturity.
When a person is 20 years old, he is physically mature. With the passage of time and the growth of age, he is truly mature when he can treat life and life correctly.
Maturity is not about being indifferent to life, but about loving and bearing more.
After dinner, after arranging Yaru's residence and work, Lao Tan returned to his family in Kanto.
Seeing Lao Tan coming back, Zhang Li walked up to her with a smile, and teasingly said, "I heard that I went to have dinner with the beautiful woman, and it's still my first love."
There was a sour taste in the words.
Lao Tan didn't deny it either, and said directly, "Correct."
"If you put your first love in front of you to work, you can see that the purpose is not pure." Zhang Li said.
"The two of us will relapse our old relationship, we will have a vigorous love, work hard, and give birth to a small crystallization of love." Old Tan stimulated Zhang Li.
"roll--"
Zhang Li said something harshly, feeling puzzled, and added: "It's best not to let me see it, I saw it—hmph!"
Old Tan indulged himself for a while, then went into the kitchen.
On April [-], the new store of Dumpling Restaurant opened.
On the opening day, the business was booming, and there was a long queue, and the turnover reached 3000 yuan.
The guests are very appreciative of the dumplings, and they are full of praise for the dishes. The health wine and hotel wine are also sought after, and the opening is a success.
In the next week, the turnover was more than [-].There is a steady stream of customers, and there are people eating almost all day long.
There are two reasons for this phenomenon. One is that the dumplings are delicious and the dishes are delicious; the other is that the consumption is not high. Three people have two plates of dumplings, two dishes, and three pots of old wine. 100 yuan can solve the problem, and everyone can afford it. And eat well.
Due to the sufficient preparation, the time for customers to wait for the dishes is short. The dishes are served almost 5 minutes after sitting down, and the dumplings are served 10 minutes later.The guests eat dumplings while drinking. The veritable dumpling wine is very popular among the people.
After the opening of the new store, the workload of Wang Hong and Fang Jianjun increased. They were not only responsible for the production of the old store's products, but also delivered to the new store, which was a bit overwhelming.Lao Tan matched them with a younger brother.
Yaru was assigned to Wang Hong, which meant taking care of her.
At the same time, considering that there will be branch stores in the future, and the handmade products of dumpling stuffing, dumpling noodles and cold dishes need to be delivered, there is a plan to build a small central kitchen separately.
For now, there are only two stores available, and it can still be operated in the kitchen of the old store. If there are more than three stores, it will be difficult to do so.Lao Tan talked about this plan with Yanhua and Yanzi, and the two bosses also agreed, agreeing to build a small central kitchen when opening the third store, which can support eight to ten stores.
This is just a plan, the premise is to operate the two existing stores well.
The second store is operating well, which also makes Lao Tan more and more confident in the model of the small dumpling restaurant, and has an outlook on the future prospects.
He plans to open eight dumpling restaurants within two years.The eight stores are based on Sandaizi and radiate to the city. Each store is three kilometers apart, with an area of no more than 300,000 square meters.The total investment is [-], and the cost will be recovered within ten months.
The daily turnover of each store is between 24 and 300,000, the monthly turnover is 2 to 24, and the profit is between 36 and [-].In this way, the monthly turnover of the eight stores is more than [-] million, and the net profit is between [-] and [-]. It is equivalent to a small business, which is not lost to the Kanto family, and has huge potential.
If the six districts in the provincial city are covered, there will be at least fifteen stores in each district, so that is one hundred stores.
One hundred stores, good guy, not a small number, not a small scale.
Of course, this is an ideal prospect. If the development is good and everything goes according to plan, it is still possible to reach [-] stores in five years.
One month after the opening of the new store, Lao Tan was very busy. Every day, he had to take time to go to the scene to direct, lest there would be mistakes.Fortunately, Xiaogao and Tuya were very responsible, and the employees cooperated actively, so nothing happened.
A month later, the new store was on the right track, and Lao Tan was much more relaxed, so he didn't go there much.
Just when he was about to take a breath, he received a notice from Dongfang Cuisine to visit the provincial capital, and the first restaurant was Kanto Renjia.So he threw himself into the intense preparations to meet the inspection team.
First of all, it takes three days to thoroughly clean the sanitation of the kitchen and front desk.Every day after get off work, all employees work together until twelve o'clock in the evening, cleaning out every corner, including the cold dish kitchen, warehouse, green vegetable room, staff restaurant, and dormitory at the back.
In order to reward everyone, every employee is given [-] points, and drinks, ice cream, and bread are well prepared, so that everyone cannot be thirsty or hungry.
After cleaning up the sanitation, we did overall training, including reception procedures, smiling responses, warm service and so on.
The reception dinner on the first day will be held here, and a series of matters such as the reception menu, the team presentation at the banquet, and the exchange meeting after the dinner have been formulated.
Having had experience with hospitality at Marina, it all went very well.When they were in Binhai, the host of the banquet was Zhou Xiaomei. Lao Tan called Zhou Xiaomei, who was raising the children at home, and asked her to host it.
After everything was ready, the oriental cuisine delegation came to the provincial capital.
In people's impression, Northeast restaurants are rough and unrestrained. This is a nice way of saying it, but it actually means that Northeast restaurants are rough and not refined enough.
But after the members of the inspection team entered the Kanto family, they immediately overturned the inherent thinking in their minds.Unexpectedly, the seemingly rough Northeast people can make the food and drink so delicate, even classic.
It can be described as breathtaking.
The small donkey pull mill with a simple rural atmosphere, the live fish in the pond, the small stupid chickens, and the small tofu and tofu brains made on the spot, all of which gave the catering staff who came to the Northeast for the first time a refreshing feeling, and they all came here. Take out your camera and phone to take pictures.
Entering the kitchen, I saw warm smiles and cordial greetings from every employee, as well as a clean and tidy environment, and standardized and orderly process standards, which are no less than the kitchens of those high-end restaurants in the south that are famous for Wuchang management. It was also unexpected by all the people who visited.
At the banquet in the evening, everyone tasted the authentic Northeast farm food, and they were all shocked by the unique taste and fine workmanship, and they were full of praise.
Of course, the biggest highlight of the dinner was Zhou Xiaomei. Her beautiful face and generous and decent host left a deep impression on people, and her beautiful singing voice deeply moved everyone.
The reception was very successful, and the Kanto people left a deep impression on the catering people all over the country, and brought a wave of farmhouses in Northeast China.
Lao Tan made a wonderful sharing at the last moment, introducing the Kanto people to everyone in a three-dimensional and all-round way, and received warm applause.
However, when Lao Tan finished his speech and walked off the stage, ready to have two drinks with his counterparts from all over the country, he felt hot and salty in his throat and his body trembled for a while.
He forced a smile on his face and waved to everyone, greeted everyone politely, then quickly came out of the banquet hall and hurried to the bathroom.
Pushing open the bathroom door, I couldn't hold back the hot eyes anymore, opened my mouth suddenly, and spewed out a mouthful of blood——
"Ah—uncle—"
Zhou Xiaomei, who had just changed her clothes, saw this scene and exclaimed——
