I work as a chef in the university cafeteria

Chapter 185 Free is the most expensive
"Which box guest wants to see me?"

After hearing what the waiter Xiao Ma said, Jiang Yu couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

Under normal circumstances, customers will not make such requests, unless there is something wrong with the dishes they ordered.

For example, if there are foreign objects in the dishes, and the guests are upset, they will ask the person in charge of the restaurant or the chef to come out and explain.

After thinking about it, he asked again, "Did you say something?"

"It's the guests in the 'Lan' box, um, four young people."

Xiao Ma tried her best to provide Jiang Yu with the information she knew, she said,
"One of them said they wanted to discuss something with you.

Oh, by the way, he also said, it's not too late to go there after you finish your work here, they can wait. "

"Oh, so, then I know."

When Jiang Yu heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there was no problem with his cooking, it would be fine.

What is the scariest thing about opening a restaurant?Isn't that what it is!

He took a dry towel and wiped his hands, nodded and said, "Then let me go and have a look."

As he spoke, he straightened his chef's uniform, and after checking that there was no dirt on it, he raised his foot and walked towards the "Lan" box.

When he came to the door of the box, Jiang Yu heard lively chatter and laughter coming from inside. He hesitated for a while, and finally raised his hand and knocked on the door lightly.

The talking and laughing inside stopped abruptly, and after a few seconds of silence, there was a clear voice: "Please come in!"

Jiang Yu raised his hand and gently opened the door. The air-conditioning and heating in the room were mixed with the smell of various vegetables.

He held his breath, looked up and saw that there were four people sitting around the table in the box, and three of them looked familiar.

Although Jiang Yu couldn't call out their names at once, he knew in his heart that these were his old customers, at least since the "Jiang's Soup Dumpling" store in the second canteen, these people had already been patronizing .

Thinking of this, with a smile on Jiang Yu's face, he raised his feet and walked inside, while greeting with a smile:
"Hi bosses, is this meal okay at noon?"

"Boss Xiao Jiang is here? Hurry up, sit down!"

Before Duan Yiming could speak, He Xiaowei jumped up from his seat, pulled out a chair, and said with a smile on his face,

"Today's lunch table, we ate really well!
You look, you look!There is not a single bit of leftovers left on the table!

If there were a few buns and steamed buns, the vegetable soup on this plate would be wiped clean! "

When Deng Linhui heard this, he couldn't help but raised his hand to cover his face, as if he didn't dare to see people.

It was because it was on the second floor and there was no way to dig a hole in the ground. Otherwise, Deng Linhui probably had to dig a hole in the ground and get in!
This He Xiaowei is really not afraid of embarrassment, it's fine to talk among yourself, but also in front of outsiders!

How do you know how to use buns and steamed buns to wipe vegetable soup? Why don’t you just stick out your tongue and lick the bottom of the dish?
Zhu Youfeng was also in a daze, looking left and right, and that was short of writing "I don't know this person" on his face.

Jiang Yu smiled, and said modestly: "You are too polite, as long as everyone likes to eat."

"Boss Xiaojiang, I called you here this time because I want to tell you something."

Seeing that Jiang Yu had arrived, Duan Yiming didn't intend to go around in circles, and said directly,
"That's right, hasn't dining room No. [-] already opened a reservation call?
A few of us discussed it before, and we all felt that it was very troublesome to make an appointment by phone.

The restaurant has to arrange someone to guard the phone, and no matter who it is, answering so many calls every day will be annoying for everyone.

The few of us discussed for a while, and felt that there was a good way, which not only achieved the effect of making a phone call, but was also simpler and less troublesome than making a phone call.

Boss Xiaojiang, are you interested in learning more about it? "

"Oh, really?"

Jiang Yu smiled, he had already remembered now, isn't the person who spoke just now a boss surnamed Duan?
He still remembered that this person had previously said that he was his senior brother who also graduated from Jiang University.

When he was still at the second canteen, he and the boss surnamed Deng who had been silent all the time came to find him, and he also planned to invite himself to be the chef in their company canteen.

They came to look for themselves again this time, wouldn't they still have that idea?
Or is the idea upgraded?
Jiang Yu turned around in his mind, intending to listen to what's going on before talking. Thinking of this, he said with a smile,

"Boss Duan, can you tell me?"

"Hey, Boss Xiaojiang still remembers me!"

Duan Yiming was taken aback for a moment, looking very happy, he said with a smile,

"It's not a secret, what can't be said?
In fact, it is very simple. My current company is located in a nearby Pioneer Park, mainly engaged in computer software development.

So, I thought, maybe I can help design and develop a restaurant box reservation system software.

In this way, customers only need to download this software on their mobile phones or computers, and then they can book boxes within the set time.

Not only that, but we can also enter the menu of the restaurant into the system in advance. Customers who have made a reservation can not only fill in their name and phone number, but also order in advance.

Even, if necessary, early settlement can also be realized, depending on whether the restaurant has this demand.

Boss Xiaojiang, do you think this online appointment is much more convenient than making an appointment by phone? "

Jiang Yu was a little shocked when he heard such a big talk from him.

It's the first day I've used my restaurant's appointment phone today, and the other party has already figured out how to make an online reservation, and even thought through all the functions of this reservation software...

This is really worthy of being a boss, his brain is just so good!

Thinking of this, Jiang Yu couldn't help but praise:
"It is indeed much more convenient than making an appointment by phone, and there is no need to bother the waiter to answer the phone.

To put it bluntly, I am not afraid of jokes. Today is the first day I accept an appointment. The little girl I arranged to answer the phone accidentally lost her voice. "

"right?"

When Duan Yiming heard this, he laughed even more happily. He said,

"The most convenient thing about this reservation system software is that we can control when to start making reservations, and when the time comes, everyone can grab it at the same time!

There is no need to bother the waiter to stare at it, and there is no need to make any records. The customers can do these things by themselves! "

"It's really convenient."

Jiang Yu nodded, then asked,
"I want to ask, how much does it cost to ask Boss Duan to help develop such a reservation system software?"

"Huh? Well, talking about money hurts a bit, doesn't it? Haha!"

Duan Yiming was stunned when he heard Jiang Yu's question at first, because he didn't think about money at all, he just wanted to come and eat a few more times.

He laughed twice and said,
"Boss Xiaojiang, speaking of it, I'm still your senior brother. Developing computer software is my forte. I don't care about money. You look down on me too much."

He Xiaowei on the side also laughed and said:

"The old duan is right. We are not people who are short of money. If we really want to do it for money, we won't do this!"

When Deng Linhui heard it, he couldn't help but lift up the hand he had put down just now, forget it, I'll suffocate myself to death!

Which eye was I blind in the first place to know this idiot He Xiaowei?
"Although I don't know much about software development, such a software, no matter how simple it is, still takes a lot of time and energy."

Jiang Yu looked at He Xiaowei, then at Duan Yiming, and said seriously,

"Although we are senior brothers, brothers have to settle accounts clearly. I can't let you suffer, can I?"

Sometimes, the free is actually the most expensive.

How could Jiang Yu not understand this truth?
Boss Duan intends to help him develop such a reservation system software for free, most likely because he wants to owe him a favor.

But the debt of favor is the most difficult to repay!
Jiang Yu didn't intend to inexplicably owe a debt of favor for a dispensable reservation system software.

To be honest, with this software, the waiter will be much more relaxed, but without this software, the waiter may not be so sad.

Answering too many calls can easily hurt your throat, so you should take turns a few more times.

As for the fact that customers feel that it is too troublesome to make phone calls, and they will just give up?
Jiang Yu thought there were too many customers!

Didn't you see that there are only four of the eight boxes in the restaurant?

Are the other four unbooked?

No, that's because Jiang Yu didn't give reservations!
There were so many customers that he couldn't handle it by himself.

Therefore, this reservation system software is really dispensable to Jiang Yu.

It is naturally better and more convenient to have it; without it, would the restaurant still be open as usual?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yu looked at the embarrassed Duan Yiming again, smiled, stood up from his seat, and said:
"Boss Duan, if it's really difficult to set a price, I think it's better to forget it, and don't make things difficult for you.

I still have other things to deal with in the kitchen. If the bosses have nothing else to do, I will go back first. If you have other needs, you can tell the waiter..."

While talking, Jiang Yu turned around and was about to go back to the kitchen.

Just as he was about to leave, Duan Yiming behind him quickly stood up and shouted:
"Hey, Boss Xiao Jiang, don't worry!

It really doesn't take a lot of effort to develop a reservation system software, because the general software development companies basically have corresponding templates, and you only need to personalize the templates.

The most important thing is actually the operation and post-maintenance of the software. This requires the support of technical personnel, and ordinary people really can't do it. "

Jiang Yu stopped in his tracks, turned around to look at Duan Yiming, and frowned slightly:
"That's troublesome."

"It's not troublesome at all, our company specializes in this."

Duan Yiming laughed and said,

"We don't really talk about money.

In this way, we will help you develop a customized version of the reservation system software, and be responsible for later maintenance and upgrades. You only need to invite our company’s technical backbone to have a meal every year. Well, about ten people.

It's always okay, right? "

It takes money to develop software, and it also takes money to buy meals. Although money was not discussed, money was actually skipped.

Hearing what he said, Deng Linhui and He Xiaowei became anxious immediately.

what do you mean?Invite the technical backbone of your company to dinner?
What about the two of us?
Before they could speak, Duan Yiming saw Jiang Yu's hesitation, and said quickly,
"One more small request!
It’s our brothers who are actually fans of you, Boss Xiaojiang. We feel uncomfortable if we don’t eat the dishes you cook for a day!
Can you see if this can be the case? We are usually quite busy, and we don’t have much time to come over for dinner. We just thought, can we open a green passage or something in the next month, and reserve a box for us. The brothers are also good to come and relieve their greed.

As for the meal fee, we will pay as usual, and we must not let Boss Xiaojiang suffer! "

Deng Linhui and He Xiaowei were relieved this time, and both of them involuntarily looked at Jiang Yu with fiery eyes.

At the moment, they were still a little worried, for fear that Jiang Yu would disagree with this cooperation method.

"That's it!"

Jiang Yu thought about it for a while, and felt that these two conditions could more or less equal the cost of developing a reservation system software.

You know, a table of food for ten people is not worth the 10 yuan given by Liu Shurong, at least 1 yuan is needed.

And reserve a box for a month or something...

Anyway, they still pay as usual, and selling the dishes they cook to others is also selling, and selling to them is also selling, and they will not suffer losses.

Thinking of this, he smiled at Duan Yiming,

"Then wish us a happy cooperation!"
