The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan

Chapter 525

As a master, Lao Tan is qualified.

He has taken care of many people, we are familiar with Zhou Xiaomei, Li Shuang, Zhongqing Huaqing Brothers, Yang Zhijun, Erdun, Xiao Gao, Zhang Li and Wang Hong, including Mulan and Tuya sisters.

Now Zhou Xiaomei is the executive president, Zhongqing is the production director, Li Shuang is the regional manager of the provincial capital, Yang Zhijun is the chief chef of Hohhot, Huaqing is the chief chef of the provincial capital, Erdun is the chief chef of Hangzhou, Xiao Gao is the head chef, and Mulan is the chief chef of Hohhot. The general manager of the city, Tu Ya is the supervisor.

Although Zhang Li retired, everyone still regards her as the general manager.Not to mention Wang Hong, the Director of Dumplings, is no less important than Zhongqing.

These people were brought out by Lao Tan himself. As for those who have never been brought in, most of them are apprentices of these people, such as Meng Meng, Xiaohui, Yaru, Xiaolong, Li Zhiwen, Su Yaqiqige, etc., are also grown up now. The middle management is an indispensable mainstay.

But having said that, no matter how the catering industry develops and how advanced the management is, the master-apprentice inheritance passed down from the older generation will not change.

To give a simple example, Aqiao was built by Lao Tan. From the first small store of less than [-] square meters to the current more than [-] stores across the country, it is all his painstaking efforts.

On the surface, he is not the boss, but his influence is greater than that of the boss.

Don't look at him being sick and not participating in the management now, as if he has withdrawn from the stage, it feels like he is not functioning as well as he is, and he is very good.

But what if he is really gone?

It is estimated that Zhou Xiaomei and Zhongqing will leave in less than a month.why?There is no reason, what can the apprentice do if the master is gone?This is the rule.

China's catering industry is not only like Aqiao, most of them are like this.

Of course, it doesn't mean that the master and his disciples left the restaurant and it would be a shame.Restaurants are still open, and masters and apprentices are still looking for jobs. This is also the main reason for the high turnover of personnel in the catering industry.

Everything is survival of the fittest.

Employees who cannot keep up with the development of the enterprise will be eliminated, and it is normal for employees to be fired if the enterprise develops slowly and cannot meet the needs of employees.This is how human society has progressed step by step, otherwise there would be no progress.

This is the principle, but if you want to develop well, you must have accurate judgment and rational analysis, and you can't be blindly optimistic and overestimate yourself.

Businesses are like this, and so are individuals.

But people, there are always times when you can’t control yourself, and you often can’t help being tempted to do things that you regret for the rest of your life, often too late to regret.

On the second day after Qin Haixiao left, Liu Yang held a meeting with the four store managers and chefs, and followed what his master, Old Tan, said.Everyone didn't have a big reaction after hearing it. Although there was a little speculation, it was just a mental activity.

A week later, Zhou Xiaomei came from the provincial capital. After meeting Liu Yang, she directly talked to Chef Wang of the old shop. The next day, Chef Wang was announced as the acting head chef and would take up the post immediately.

The former employee of the acting chef only talked about it for a day or two, and then it was business as usual, and the work was smooth and smooth.

It's easy to understand the reason for this kind of situation--Aqiao has been fixed, and the employees are used to living and working in peace and contentment. As for who is the head chef, it doesn't matter, as long as it is not a person with bad morals.

"Qin Haixiao hasn't called you since he left?" Zhou Xiaomei asked Liu Yang concerned.

"No." Liu Yang shook his head, his expression was a little numb, the original sunny face was haggard, lost and painful.

"I didn't expect him to do this." Zhou Xiaomei said.

"No one looked at anyone's heart, it's normal——it's best not to tell me to see him again, if I see him, I'll kill him—"

"Don't say stupid things." Zhou Xiaomei took Liu Yang's hand like a sister, and said distressedly: "I don't know you yet, and you are more soft-hearted than anyone else. Don't worry, he will come back within two months." , it’s not so easy outside.”

"I don't want him when I come back."

"The hotel may not want him, but you can't. You have it in your heart, and he has it in your heart."

"If there is, you can't go alone."

"Hehe, to speak out of anger. You have your reasons for him leaving, and he can leave if you don't provoke him—but no matter what you say, he did something wrong and his character was compromised. Arjun didn't feel sorry for him. But everyone If you are ambitious, he also wants to go out and venture, and if he gets better, I can give you an explanation." Zhou Xiaomei comforted.

"What's the explanation? My target is the regional manager, and he switched jobs first before others switched jobs. To put it bluntly, it's tearing down the stage, tearing down the stage of my target. Can such people follow?
Even if I'm blind, if I touch this white-eyed wolf, I'll sleep with him for a fucking year, just thinking about it makes me angry. "

"Why, do you still want to sleep back?" Zhou Xiaomei joked.

"Hmph, then we have to wait until my old lady becomes more powerful and call him a duck."

"Then I'll wait and see how you call him a duck."

The two laughed.

To be honest, can a man and a woman have no feelings if they have been together for two years?Not to mention people, even a stone in the chest has been covered with heat for two years.But the stone can cover the heat, if you don't throw it, it won't go away.People are different, with thoughts and feelings, once you can't help being tempted, you will be faster than a stone, and you will walk without hesitation.

Zhou Xiaomei stayed in Changsha for a week, waiting for the restaurant and Liu Yang to stabilize before leaving.

In late October, when fallen leaves covered the ground, Lao Tan brought his elder brother and his sister-in-law from the Western Hospital to Beijing. At this time, the elder brother had already had a gastrectomy, but no chemotherapy.

The old Chinese doctor gave the pulse number, and after the diagnosis, his face was heavy, and he said the seriousness of the elder brother's situation without reservation.

In this situation, the elder brother can only be raised, to improve the quality of life and prolong life as much as possible.

In this situation, some people live for one year, some live for two years, and some live for three years.The old Chinese doctor has never treated it, so naturally he dare not say that it can be cured. After all, if it can be cured, it is a miracle doctor.

"Medicine can't kill you. The most important thing for you now is to relax and let yourself live happily. I don't treat you as cancer, just like Tan Xiaoyou, prescribe auxiliary medicine for conditioning, and the main medicine has to be treated. It's you." The old Chinese doctor said.

"That's fine. Brother Tan is recovering very well now." The sister-in-law said hurriedly as if she had seen a savior.

"Hehe, he's recovered quite well, but he's not completely healed. It may explode at any time, and it depends on how he adjusts." The old Chinese doctor said.

"Just do that to him," said my sister-in-law.

The old Chinese doctor glanced at Lao Tan, then turned to look at his eldest brother and sister-in-law and said slowly: "It is indeed the right way to take care of yourself like him. The main thing is to be in a good mood. You must have an attitude of optimism and cherish life. Don't treat illness as a disease, and treat it as a disease." Accompanying friends live in harmony, which might not be the way to cure diseases.

The evil disease is like a flood, and it is better to block it than to sparse it.What I prescribe are all supplementary medicines for dredging, conditioning, and supplementation. The dosage is three months, and you can adjust it slowly when you go back. Don’t get angry and depressed, and suppress your impatience. "

Old Tan asked: "How about he come to the Daqing Mountain where I went to recuperate like this? Is it okay?"

"Daqingshan Buddhist Pure Land requires predestined people. You can try it. If you are predestined, it will be the best."

At this time, the eldest brother said: "I heard from brother Tan that I want to go and have a look. Although I am a party member and have different beliefs from Buddhism, I must have the same idea, the same starting point, and the same path."

"It's best to think like this. It's clean and the environment is good. It's just that you have to be accompanied by someone. After all, your body is weak." The old Chinese doctor said.

"I'll go with him," said the sister-in-law.

Lao Tan doesn’t know whether this is good or bad for his eldest brother, but his starting point is good, and it’s also his own feelings——I feel that I can relax my heart, face the disease squarely, actively cooperate with the treatment, and one can return to the original purity Nursing care in the land of the ring, even if it is not good, can prolong life and live for a few more years.

Only when people have personally felt that death is within reach, can they understand the beauty of life.

The money, fame, and status we care about are not important in the face of death, and they are not worth mentioning. At that time, we suddenly realized that we had the desire to give up all these in exchange for life.

People, what is truly valuable is to respect and own life, to live well in this sentimental and beautiful world.
