Chapter 908 Weird Document

It was almost ten o'clock in the evening. Mu Qing's call was naturally to Zhao Qiqi. She should still be in the hotel at this moment, but she didn't expect that she didn't answer the phone after the ringing.

"Hurry up and answer the phone. What's going on with you guy?"

Zhao Qiqi usually works as an assistant, but after Mu Qing left, she was responsible for most of the hotel's affairs, so she must be very busy.

Chu Yunfeng naturally knew that Zhao Qiqi might have been delayed by something, because since she came back from cooking in Thailand, the hotel has begun to experience a wave of peak customer flow, and business has been booming.

"Let's make a small phone call. Maybe we can be with her?"

Chu Yunfeng's timely reminder made Mu Qing nod quickly. The hand that made the call was trembling a little. There was really nothing that could be done, and she felt excited and nervous at the same time.

"Manager? Wait a moment. It's too noisy here. I'll move to a quieter place."

As soon as the call was connected, Mu Qing heard a loud noise, mixed with Zhao Qiqi's voice, which seemed to be explaining something.

It seems like something happened at the hotel, no wonder I didn't answer the phone.

"Manager, the guests were clamoring for more wine just now, but each table is only provided with one bottle of top-quality wine. However, the guests are not happy and are negotiating with Sister Qiqi."

Liu Xiaoxiao reported the situation immediately, but this kind of thing happens often in hotels, and everyone is somewhat accustomed to it. The key is that the quantity of this top-notch wine is too small, and there is no limit.

"I see. You tell her to deal with it quickly and call me back. I need her urgently."

Less than 3 minutes after Liu Xiaoxiao hung up the phone, Zhao Qiqi's call came back immediately. Although it was only 3 minutes, Mu Qing felt as if three months had passed.

"Qiqi, go to the office immediately and check the purchase order from three years ago to see if there is a separate purchase list, the one that is not on file.

Understand?
It should last for three months, and the purchase documents may not be available every day, but the ingredients purchased within these three months should be roughly the same.

Look for it quickly. If it's not in the office, go to the archives room. What if it's stored there?
If you don’t have enough manpower, ask Xiaoxiao and the others to help you. You have to be fast and tell me as soon as you find it. I’m waiting for your good news, please.”

please?
There was a hint of pleading in Mu Qing's tone, which made Zhao Qiqi immediately realize how important this thing was to Mu Qing. This was simply incredible.

It's just a shopping list for ingredients. Do you take it so seriously?

three years ago?
and many more!

Zhao Qiqi suddenly thought of something, and immediately said with emotion: "Don't worry, if I can't find it tonight, I won't go home. Even if I work all night, I still have to complete the task!"

As soon as she said these heart-warming words, Mu Qing almost shed tears. Just when she was about to say something with a sore nose, Zhao Qiqi hung up very quickly and seemed to be preparing for a big fight.

Hurry up!
The manager attaches so much importance to it, it must have something to do with that big event, it can't be sloppy!
Zhao Qiqi was so anxious at the moment that she immediately dialed Liu Xiaoxiao's number, and then began to walk quickly towards the office. When she saw a waiter along the way, she immediately greeted her and followed her.

"Xiaoxiao, call half of the waiters to the file room immediately, and do it quickly, immediately, immediately!"

Zhao Qiqi usually speaks softly, but at this moment, Liu Xiaoxiao felt the urgency of the situation by giving orders vigorously, so she didn't say much and immediately started to gather people.

"Sisters, hurry up, hurry up, the first and third groups are gathering at the door of the archives room. Leave all the work at hand to the second group. Come over now to assemble. We will be in place within 5 minutes."

5 minutes to arrive?

The time was actually very fast. After the team members heard the call from the intercom, they immediately started to act. The whole hotel saw the waiters start to run.

Everyone had an anxious look on their face, but there was no panic. After everyone rushed out, they all lined up consciously and started trotting in an orderly manner.

"Hey, this is an exercise. Why is there such a big battle?"

"Did something happen? But the hotel alarm didn't go off?"

"They all seem to be waiters. Why are they so anxious about something? They are all running away?"

The guests in the hotel began to speculate after seeing this spectacular scene, but they had no way of knowing what happened.

However, seeing the well-trained waiters, everyone couldn't help but sigh that the execution and action of this hotel is really different from other five-star hotels.

Many waiters have begun to gather in front of the door of the archives room. After everyone arrived, they automatically lined up and waited at the door.

Everyone is very curious. It's almost time to get off work. Why are you suddenly called to the archives room?

At this time, the door to the archives room was wide open, and there was only one figure inside, and that was the assistant manager—Zhao Qiqi!

She was currently using keys to open many cabinets, confirming each one she opened, and then checked again before walking out.

At this time, all the waiters outside had arrived, and Liu Xiaoxiao looked very excited. She probably guessed something, and when she saw Zhao Qiqi, she nodded to report that everyone was here.

"There is one very important thing today, which is very, very important for our managers, and that is to find a list in these files."

After Zhao Qiqi told everyone the details, she asked Liu Xiaoxiao to check cabinet by cabinet, and then went back to the office to check it in person!
Both sides cannot be ignored. The most important documents are usually kept in the office, and they may be kept there, but now everything is just speculation.

If the document really exists, then it must be found, but if not, what should we do?

What Zhao Qiqi is most worried about now is this. If the thing is available, then all it takes is a matter of time. But if it is not available, will the manager be hit?

On the Fuzhou side, Mu Qing and the others said goodbye. The little guy was already very sleepy and it would be inappropriate to stay here any longer. Moreover, everything was already known here.

When she finally left, Mu Qing extended an invitation to Zhou Xiaoli and asked her to consider returning to the hotel to work. After all, it was not easy for her to take care of her child alone now.

Now that the hotel is employing people, this can be regarded as a thank you for her help. The clues provided are so important that Mu Qing is very grateful.

But Zhou Xiaoli refused because she wanted to go back to her hometown in the countryside, and her mother also wanted her to go back, so someone could help take care of the child.

And she can also take care of the elderly. After all, living with relatives is always much more comfortable.

Mu Qing didn't say much about Zhou Xiaoli's decision. Everyone has their own way of life, so it would be pointless to force it.

"Want to have a late-night snack?"

After going downstairs, Zhang Guoqiang made a suggestion, but he knew that the two of them were definitely not in the mood at the moment. If it were him, he would also wait for further news as soon as possible.

Sure enough, Mu Qing was not in the mood to eat at this time, but asked Zhang Guoqiang to send them back to the hotel.

"Uncle Zhang, please take us back to the hotel. I'll just order takeout here."

Seeing Mu Qing holding a mobile phone in her hand, she glanced at it from time to time, and sometimes even wanted to make a call directly, which showed the anxiety and uneasiness in her heart now.

The tangled emotions between the phone ringing and not ringing really tortured her.

If the phone doesn't ring, it means the receipt has not been found!

If the phone rings, what if the news is that there is no receipt?

These thoughts have been constantly turning and repeating in Mu Qing's mind, disturbing her mood long ago.

"Okay then, let's go!"

Zhang Guoqiang nodded, and then sent the two of them to the hotel in less than 10 minutes.

"Uncle Zhang, thank you for today. When the work here is finished, we will treat you to dinner!"

After unloading the luggage from the car, Chu Yunfeng smiled and thanked him. Without his help, things would not have gone so smoothly.

"Hi~! Why are you being polite to me, boy? Eating is a trivial matter. Let's get down to business first. If you need any help later, just call me.

By the way, here is the car key. There is a car for you in the hotel parking garage. This will make things easier. Take it! "

Zhang Guoqiang is still very thoughtful in considering things. Although he doesn't know whether the two of them will be useful or not, these details are still very moving and useful.

"Hey, you're welcome then. Thank you Uncle Zhang."

After Chu Yunfeng and Mu Qing thanked them again, they entered the hotel and checked in.

But this time, naturally I only booked one room, a double bed room!

"Let's eat something to cushion your stomach first. It's not so fast over there. It will take at least an hour to get the results!"

After entering the room, Mu Qing never put down the phone in her hand. Sometimes she even held it close to her chest and walked around the room.

"Hmm~!"

Mu Qing nodded, then sat down, picked up a skewer of barbecued meat, took a bite, then put it down, and continued to pick up the phone to take a look.

Ah~!

Chu Yunfeng sighed softly. In order to allow Mu Qing to eat more, he specially ordered her favorite skewers, and this was also the most convenient thing to eat.

But she still had no appetite, and her mind was not on it at all.

"Put your phone on the table so you can see it at any time. Eat first. What if you have something to do after confirming it later? You have to eat something to have strength and energy, right?"

Under Chu Yunfeng's "persuasion", Mu Qing finally nodded and put the phone on the table, but when she picked up the skewers to eat, she didn't take her eyes off the phone for even a second.

"Drink a sip!"

After handing her the Coke, she took a sip and put it down.
However, under Chu Yunfeng's continuous "feeding", these kebabs were quickly wiped out. Although Mu Qing was not in the mood to eat, the kebabs tasted good after all, and Chu Yun was unknowingly eating them. The wind played a trick.

Chu Yunfeng originally expected an hour, but he didn't expect that before half an hour, the phone on the table rang.

The moment the bell rang, Mu Qing picked it up in an instant. Chu Yunfeng was so fast that Chu Yunfeng was shocked, but he could still clearly see the three words Zhao Qiqi displayed on it.

"How about it?"

As soon as the call was connected, Mu Qing immediately began to ask nervously, while Zhao Qiqi also sounded excited.

"Found it, found it, we found it!"

Then bursts of cheers were heard, as if everyone was shouting for victory.

Hearing the joy coming from the other side, Mu Qing finally smiled.

"There are more than twenty receipts in total, and the ingredients on them are almost the same. I will take pictures and send them to you right away.

By the way, our people here won't evacuate yet, let's see if there is anything else we need to find, we are on standby at any time! "

After Zhao Qiqi finished speaking, everyone in the archives room nodded heavily. It seemed that the "big battle" they had just participated in was very interesting and they wanted to continue fighting.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for your hard work. I'll ask the kitchen to arrange a supper later so everyone can have something to eat first."

In fact, there is no need for Mu Qing to give orders for this kind of thing. Zhao Qiqi will definitely do a good job, but it also reflects Mu Qing's gratitude for everyone's help at this time.

Something found!
Ding ding ding ding.
More than a dozen photos immediately appeared on the phone. Chu Yunfeng had already arrived at Mu Qing's side, holding her waist and looking through them with her.

After looking at the receipts one by one, Mu Qing found that, as Zhao Qiqi said, the ingredients listed above were roughly the same, only the first few were slightly changed.

But she couldn't tell any clues just from these ingredients, let alone be able to identify what dishes these ingredients were used to make.

Then Mu Qing turned her head and looked at Chu Yunfeng with an aggrieved look, obviously asking him for help.

Seeing Mu Qing pouting and looking for knowledge on her face, Chu Yunfeng couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that in the end, he, the master, had to take action!
However, after casually looking at these lists just now, Chu Yunfeng felt uncertain for a moment. These ingredients were very messy, and if they were to be combined together, it would be impossible to make a suitable dish.

If you want to mix them together, you can only make one dish - a hodgepodge!

Or it's okay to call it "big stew".

So the question is, what secrets are hidden in the ingredients on these documents?

Chu Yunfeng took Mu Qing's phone and looked at it carefully one by one, and then began to think.

But 5 minutes later, Chu Yunfeng frowned and said, "Let Zhao Qiqi and the others withdraw it, there should be no problem with these documents, and there is nothing to look for again."

Mu Qing nodded, spoke to Zhao Qiqi, and then fixed her gaze on Chu Yunfeng again, only to see his frown deepen.

Looking at the list again, the ingredients listed above are indeed very strange, even a little incomprehensible.

Carrots, mushrooms, fish maw, bamboo shoots, fish lips, donggui, white radish, pigeon eggs, rabbit meat, tendons, conch heads, scallops, red peppers, ginseng, abalone, sweet potatoes, chicken, duck, pig's trotters, potatoes , pork skin, pork, keel, chicken feet, crucian carp, prawns, squid, celery, lettuce, watermelon, beef.
There are a total of forty kinds of these ingredients, large and small, some ordinary and some expensive. On the surface, they don't seem to be anything special, but when you think about it carefully, you feel that it is not that simple.

Especially Chu Yunfeng, who nodded for a while and shook his head for a while, with a tangled and puzzled expression on his face, and occasionally sighed depressedly.

He was obviously stumped by these lists and couldn't figure out the mystery contained in them.
