I just want to live in peace, I refuse to fall in love

Chapter 52 How could he be my father?

Nagata Chinatsu was afraid that her mother would be unhappy, so she quickly changed the subject, "Mom, it didn't seem to go well when I heard you on the phone just now?"

"Yes, there is indeed a small problem now." Mrs. Miyagi sighed and picked up another dumpling.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"The main problems are the same old problems, limited budget and lack of manpower."

"Why is this happening? There are other stores owned by the company here in Fukuoka. How about borrowing some people from them?" Nagata Chinatsu raised a possibility.

"It's not that easy. I discussed it with someone from a shabu-shabu restaurant before, but the boss there was unwilling to second people. In this situation, manpower is tight everywhere." Mrs. Miyagi picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Take a sip of tea.

"As for raising wages, there will definitely be people who are willing to come." Shirakawa Kazuya raised another possibility.

"This is another problem. The budget is limited. The head office now wants to implement low-cost operations, but how can it be so easy to implement it in our local companies? Everyone has a mouth to eat. "Ms. Miyagi also had a headache when she mentioned this.

"That's right." Shirakawa Kazuya nodded understandingly. He worked two jobs and knew the importance of money.

"The service staff is a minor matter. The most troublesome thing is the salary of the chef. We are going to invite Shimoda-san to be the general, and he wants a monthly salary of 40 yen. It is really difficult." Mrs. Miyagi mentioned that. The chef named Shimoda seemed a little helpless.

Fukuoka is a Category III area in Japan. An ordinary employee's monthly salary is in the range of 15 to 20 yen.

As a newly opened izakaya, the general's salary is 40 yen. Shirakawa Kazuya doesn't know much about the market, but he thinks it's quite considerable.

"40 yen? Why such a high salary? Is this Shimoda-san very powerful?" Xiangzi was shocked.

"He was originally the chef of another izakaya, but he seemed to have had a conflict with the original boss recently. We happened to be short of people here, so we went to discuss it with him. He seemed to know that we were short of manpower. That's enough, even the lion asked for a monthly salary of 40 yen." Mrs. Miyagi drank all the water in the cup and looked a little angry.

"Arguing about conflicts? It's definitely not a small thing if you are going to leave the job." Nagata Qianxia was a little puzzled.

"I heard that he left the job because he was restless because of his age and was tampering with the kitchen staff. In the end, the girl sued the boss and he resigned." Mrs. Miyagi said with disgust. this matter.

"Ah? Then you still recruit him." Bai Chuanhe also couldn't bear it when he heard this. Isn't this a scumbag?
"This matter cannot be decided by me alone, and because of this matter, we can further reduce his salary. In the end, we can probably negotiate a salary of about 35 yen." Mrs. Miyagi said. Spread your hands.

"I still think this person is not very good." Nagata Chinatsu was a little depressed.

"Mom, I also know about this, but our current conditions are not good enough. The budget in all aspects is limited, so we can only choose the taller one from the shortest. Besides, the company and I are also taking precautions against this situation, and are preparing to help all the cooks. Recruiting boys.”

Mrs. Miyagi knew that her daughter had a stubborn character, so she touched her head and comforted her.

Seeing that Nagata Chinatsu remained silent, Shirakawa Kazuya took over the conversation, "Then what kind of izakaya are you planning to build? What route will you take?"

"It turns out that the owner of a sushi restaurant near the entrance of the commercial street went back to his hometown to get married and was planning to settle there. The landlord hadn't found anyone to take over for two weeks. We happened to have this demand, so we negotiated the deal at a not-too-high price. .”

"That's good, and if it is opened at the entrance of the commercial street, the passenger flow will be higher, and the location is good." Shirakawa Kazuya thought seriously and nodded. "As for which route to take? The current idea is to take the affordable route. The main customers are office workers nearby." Mrs. Miyagi touched her chin and expressed her thoughts.

"With a limited budget, going the affordable route should be the best choice, but the dishes cannot all be affordable. In that case, this izakaya will feel a bit cheap. I think it is also important to introduce some higher-end dishes appropriately. of."

Shirakawa Kazuya thought of the ramen shop he went to with Chinatsu Nagata before. Although most of the noodles were affordable noodles, there were also a few expensive specialty noodles. However, he had an empty wallet at the time and had not tried the taste.

"That makes sense. I will discuss it with him when Shimoda-san comes." Mrs. Miyagi did not despise Shirakawa Kazuya's idea because he was only a high school student, but seriously considered the possibility.

"Does Shimoda-san have any specialties?"

"It is said that he is very good at cooking meat dishes, and he is quite famous in the original store. So our izakaya is going to cooperate with his focus on meat-based dishes."

"In addition to the normal dishes, it is also important to introduce some special dishes, so that we can be different from the other two izakayas on that commercial street and gain a reputation."

Shirakawa Kazuya saw that Mrs. Miyagi was not impatient, but was discussing with himself very seriously, and became a little serious for a while, showing the kind of energy that he usually studied.

The two discussed at the dinner table one by one, sometimes holding water glasses and nodding in agreement, and sometimes frowning tightly, with serious expressions on their faces.

Nagata Chinatsu and Xiangzi couldn't get a word in at all, so they could only listen to their conversation, stare at each other, and helplessly eat the already cold dumplings.

The dishes made by Kazuya are still delicious. After swallowing the last dumpling, Nagata Chika looked at the two who were still communicating with each other a little bored.

At this moment, they have already talked about how to rip off customers after the store becomes bigger and stronger.

But why does the scene in front of me always feel so familiar?Nagata Chinatsu used her fingers to twist the hair hanging on her chest, and the appearance of Taira Town slowly appeared in her memory.

That was many years ago, my parents also opened an izakaya in their hometown.

A small store with a wooden sliding door appeared in Nagata Chinatsu's memory. The blue striped coarse cloth floating in front of the door and the signboard swaying slightly in the wind slowly came to mind.

At that time, my parents were still very young and very ambitious. They felt that they would definitely be able to do something big. They often talked and laughed at the dinner table during dinner, planning how to make the small izakaya even more popular. Prosperous.

The figure in the memory gradually overlapped with the reality in front of me. There seemed to be some wrinkles on my mother's face, but they were well maintained and not obvious.Dad's face seems to have become more handsome, and he looks like his peers.

Wait, peers?Nagata Chinatsu came back to her senses and looked at Shirakawa Kazuya, who was seriously discussing how to spread the smell of meat farther. She actually saw some similarities on his face.

What on earth was I thinking?How could he be my dad?
