Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 838, Suggestions

"Second brother, call your Uncle He and Uncle Lei over for a drink." After dinner, Jiang Yan spoke to Jiang Zimo who was clearing the table with his younger brother.

Other families favor sons over daughters, but in Jiang Yan's family it seems to be the other way around.

In Jiang Yan's family, their daughter is a treasure and her son is a loser. It is his wife who cooks, but it is his two sons who do the dishes after dinner. The sons also protested, but Jiang Yan pushed them back.

This is also a good saying: As a man, he will be the backbone of the family in the future. It is good to exercise early. The ancients also said that when heaven is about to give a big responsibility to a man, he must first work hard on his mind, work his muscles and bones, and starve his body and skin. , His body is depleted, and his actions are chaotic, so his mind and forbearance have been beneficial to what he could not do.

However, Jiang Yan also discovered that the older the child was, the harder it was to fool him. He had no choice but to fool him day by day.

While the second brother at home went to call the two men, Jiang Yan got up and went to the kitchen, got a can of food, fried some peanuts, smashed a cucumber, and then got a bottle of Xifeng wine and placed it directly on the table under the grape vines, waiting for the two guys to arrive.

"Hey! Boss, you are ready. I will give you another dish just in time." He Yuzhu said and brought the pork head in front of Jiang Yan.

"Go and cut it." Jiang Yan said without raising his head, and then He Yuzhu stumbled to the kitchen.

After drinking for three rounds, Jiang Yan put down his glass.

"Zilla, how is the decoration going? When will it be opened?"

"That's almost it. Our plan is to open the business on September 15th. We have already recruited enough waiters. In two days, my senior brother will call someone from him to train him and that's it." He Yuzhu took a bite of the food and said. .

"It's just that this official is hard to find."

In the early years, there was also a lot of emphasis on opening a restaurant in Sijiu City. According to the old Yanjing saying, the three treasures of a restaurant are "the kitchen worker, the waiter, and the waiter." They are not called for nothing.

The person who can attract and retain customers is a good chef. His importance is no less important than that of a chef who can make good dishes.

A capable waiter with nimble legs and feet who can hold and carry three plates filled with hot dishes in one hand. He has sharp eyes and a good memory. He can recognize the guests the second time after he comes once. He also has the ability to memorize the names and prices of the restaurant's dishes and rely on mental arithmetic to settle the bill.

In addition to serving towels and pouring tea and water for guests, the waiter is also responsible for making various refreshments. The most important thing is to understand the customs and etiquette of weddings and funerals in the capital, so as to help guests who come to the restaurant to entertain their relatives and friends.

Therefore, in those days, guests especially liked to hold large-scale banquets at a certain restaurant. In addition to the quality of the dishes, what actually mattered more was the attentive service of the waiter and the etiquette of the waiter.

What’s even more surprising is that once the waiter or restaurant worker becomes famous, if they resign, the restaurant will lose a number of patrons, and wherever he goes to the restaurant, these regular patrons will follow him where.

But now is a new era and we have to keep pace with the times. After several people discussed it, the waiter decided to use a waitress.

The reason why we find a good Tang Guan is actually to decorate the appearance and shout out the Beijing accent and Beijing rhyme. This is what we want.

"Take your time, you can always find it. Otherwise, ask a former court official to train you. This won't let them serve food. It's not easy to yell at them." Shitou said next to him.

"I'll ask my master and the others later." He Yuzhu said.

"What kind of cuisine does your restaurant owner serve?" Jiang Yan then asked.

"I'm good at Sichuan cuisine and Shandong cuisine, but my senior brother said he wanted to add Tan's cuisine. But as you know, boss, this Tan's cuisine has many separate dishes and is more complicated to make, so I just learned a thing or two. There are only a few people who know how to cook it. It doesn’t matter if you are not good at it. Shandong cuisine and Sichuan cuisine are marketed in our four-nine cities. The price is cheap and the people can afford it." He Yuzhu said with a smile.

"What's going on with your dad?" Jiang Yan then asked.

"That's it. Widow Bai passed away two years ago, and his sons didn't support him, so he didn't dare go back to Beijing. He had to make do there. Fortunately, he had saved a sum of money and a pension, so he could cook when he had time. He lived a pretty good life." "Have you ever thought of calling him back to be in charge of the Tan family cuisine? As far as I know, Uncle He's Tan family cuisine was quite famous in Beijing at that time." Jiang Yan said while smoking a cigarette.

"No, boss, it has just opened now. The ingredients used in Tan's cuisine are very particular. I'm afraid there are not many people who can afford it."

"Besides, there is no place to get the raw materials for Tan's cuisine. Many of them can no longer be found."

After listening to He Yuzhu's words, Jiang Yan put out the cigarette in his hand and opened the cigarette holder. After cleaning the smoke oil with straw paper, he closed it again and then spoke.

"It's not that those ingredients have disappeared, but it's just that they haven't been completely liberalized yet, and they haven't been circulated yet. Senior Brother You is in Xiangjiang, where basically all the ingredients are available for you to purchase."

"Zhuzi, remember, there is no shortage of rich people in any period. Believe it or not, as long as you spread the reputation of Tan's cuisine, there will be people who eat it. I suggest you bring back Uncle He and add some Previous Cuisine.”

"Then, isn't his identity problem unresolved?" He Yuzhu asked.

"It's okay if you don't meet acquaintances. Believe it or not, no one will care about your origin in a few years." Jiang Yan drank a glass of wine and said.

"By the way, do you still have the recipe for instant noodles that I asked you to research before?" Jiang Yan continued.

"Yes, leave them all!"

When Jiang Yan was developing instant noodles, He Yuzhu and Liuzi came up with a lot of recipes under Jiang Yan's guidance, such as big bone noodles, Lao Tan pickled cabbage noodles, and spicy beef noodles. However, due to the limitations of the market and the environment at that time, the instant noodles only had a simple seasoning package, just like the instant noodles in Beijing.

As for the instant noodles that are exported, their recipes are developed to cater to foreign tastes, such as mushroom soup seasoning packets and the like, which basically have no market in China.

"When I registered the company before, I also registered the category of food. I thought about it this way. Let's just build an instant noodle factory and use the flavors you developed before. Then we can produce instant noodles ourselves, mainly made of stone. "Be responsible, you are responsible for the technology, and the shares will be divided according to three, three, and four," Jiang Yan said.

"Boss, that's a lot. Just give us two tenths," Shitou said.

"That's right, there are too many bosses." He Yuzhu also said.

"Why do you care so much about your brother? Just take it. Why do you two talk so much nonsense?" Jiang Yan directly criticized the two people.

"What about Damao and Liuzi? Don't give them a share!"

"Don't worry about the two of them. I have other business here. We will discuss it when the time comes. But you two can't be jealous when the time comes."

"Don't worry! Boss, I'm not jealous, I'm not jealous."

"Okay, drink, drink." Jiang Yan greeted.

"By the way, if Shitou has nothing to do for a while, come back and come with me to commission a shop to look inside and get some furniture."

"Okay, boss, no problem."

When Xu Damao and the others left, they left a lot of Hong Kong dollars with Jiang Yan. So Jiang Yan is quite confident when he speaks now.
