The boss cooks, and the bankrupt company opens a state banquet restaurant

[Is it a loss of humanity or a fall in morality if Delicious doesn’t make money? 】

[What is the secret of the delicious food in the New State Banquet Restaurant that makes an 80-year-old foreign lady's legs go weak? ]

[Meishilai has become the most popular company among chefs in the new era. What methods did the boss use? 】

It was the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, and several days had passed since the state banquet. Su Chen was lying on a chair, bored, and casually scrolling through his phone, but he still saw these strange news.

It can be seen that this wave of popularity lasted long enough, mainly because it was a hot topic.

Especially as the year is coming to an end and the popularity is increasing, due to the combination of multiple factors, Delicious has officially announced that it will be closed at the end of December and the beginning of January because it wants to give employees New Year's Day leave!

In addition, we only open selectively during the first month of the year.

Such a willful business attitude directly angered many foodies who had originally planned to go to Jingzhou to taste the food during the New Year holiday.

"Is it a big deal to host a state banquet? You don't treat us fans as human beings? I'm really worried about not being able to spend the money."

"It's so funny, you really take yourself so seriously, you even choose to open selectively, OK OK, everyone don't go, you cute guys are open but not open."

"I was originally planning to go to Jingzhou, but after seeing this announcement, I was a little overwhelmed. Does Boss Su think of himself as some big star?"

"That's right! It's best not to go to such an unscrupulous company!"

There are many similar comments, but Su Chen noticed something interesting.

Those who cursed the most in the comment section basically sent private messages to their own accounts in the background.

"Boss Su? That message was sent by my son. He doesn't know how to use a cell phone yet. Can we reserve a table for our initial opening?"

"Boss Su! I swear it was my dog ​​that stole my phone just now. I don't know what it did to me. I'm getting engaged on the sixth day of the first lunar month. Can you give me a seat?"

"."

Are you trying to say one thing and mean another to me?
But some people suddenly felt the same way for some reason. Unlike the short video platform, there is a platform on the Internet called Zhihu, which is said to be a gathering place for some intellectuals.

[Why Xisuo Meishilai went from being on the verge of bankruptcy to being the only one in the country within a few months]

This post was born under such popularity that many people clicked in to take a look out of curiosity, but they didn’t know who the author of the post was.

[The author recently looked up a lot of information about Delicious and found something particularly interesting. ]

[The business model of this company combines the contracting system, semi-contracting system, office system, casual office system, and the system of not working if you like or working if you want]

[The lowest-educated employee in his company is a girl who graduated from a junior college. According to inquiries, this girl's annual salary has reached more than 300,000 yuan.]

[Those state banquet chefs have adopted a cooperative system with Boss Su. Not only do they receive a salary, but they also get a large share of the profits from the operation of the famous cuisine restaurant! ]

[The snack floor is even more bizarre! The small bosses of those stalls are all paid wages, and they also pay five insurances and one fund! It's outrageous, but they directly take 60% of the stall profits! Outrageous! There is a person selling three-color prawns, and his monthly income is directly 150,000. Can you believe it? ]

[Let’s not talk about the second floor. The quota for the small dining table has been hyped up to 3,000 yuan a month. It is said that as long as their children can eat at the delicious dining table, parents can go there occasionally for a meal. ]

[And their employees go to work every day when they want to, and if they don’t want to go, they just say hello and don’t go! This is not outrageous enough, there are even more outrageous things. ]

[Can you believe in a job where you can do whatever you want during working hours? As long as the boss doesn't assign you any tasks, you can do your own things. As long as the boss assigns you tasks and you complete them in time, can you believe it? ]

[If you think this is outrageous enough, then please hold your chin up. Can you believe that they travel abroad twice a year, and have you ever seen such a thing as the supplier actively paying for the travel abroad? ]

【.】

This speech immediately made many migrant workers who were returning home for the New Year feel the same way.

"Every time I finish my work, I still want to open a document to pretend, who understands me, my family members?"

"In fact, I can complete my daily work tasks in one hour if I concentrate, so why can't I finish it in eight hours now?"

"What does that college girl do? Why does she earn 300,000 yuan a year? If I can earn 300,000 yuan a year by posting sex videos, I can do that too!"

"It's not a stall. I earn over 100,000 yuan a month. Can I rent this stall? I want to open one too. With my graduate degree, I should be able to get this job, right?"

People on Douyin are discussing the delicious food of Meiweilai, and people on Zhihu have already started studying the business philosophy of Meiweilai.

Some people even claimed that Su Chen was a business genius that was one in a million in thousands of years!
"What bullshit!" Su Chen looked at these outrageous articles, shook his head in frustration, and dropped his phone.

If you are a business genius, then everyone in this world is probably a genius among geniuses.

But Su Chen was also a little strange.
At the beginning, I really just treated the company's employees from the perspective of a worker. I would never deduct a penny from the money I owed you. After work, you could go back to your own business. Anyway, what the company wanted was work content.

We are usually harmonious and there is no need to create power relations between superiors and subordinates.

I didn't expect it to turn out like this unexpectedly.

This year's calendar is quite special. There is only the 29th day of the lunar year, but no New Year's 30th, so tonight is New Year's Eve.

"Even if you are alone during the Spring Festival, you should still enjoy it well."

As the most important festival in the Chinese people's minds, it cannot be ignored.

Su Chen selected a lot of ingredients from the vending machine in the practice room, including three parts fat and three parts lean top-quality pork belly, top-quality green onions, and three pounds of flour.

“There’s always dumplings.”

He bought another pound of grain wine, which was also a three-no product, but it was produced by the system, so Su Chen could trust it!
"Give me some more snacks!"

Su Chen was too lazy to cook, so he simply bought some ready-made meals from the system.

Pressed cooked pig head meat, jelly skin, a braised pig's trotter, and a bag of peanuts, and you're all set!

He came to the cafeteria on the 19th floor, cut all the cooked food and arranged them on plates, then carried the pork belly to the kitchen. He started chopping the meat with the chef's knife in his hand, and in a few moments, the meat was chopped into paste.

There are many types of dumpling fillings, and Su Chen is going to make pork and green onion fillings.

Chop a large amount of green onions and stir them together with the pork in a clockwise direction. While stirring, add sesame oil, light soy sauce, soaked pepper water, and a few drops of vegetable oil.

The pork and scallion filling doesn’t need to be too complicated, as long as the meat is fragrant and the scallions are strong enough.

After the filling was prepared, Su Chen continued to knead the dough. He used high-quality wheat flour to make a smooth dough and placed it in a bowl to let it rise slightly.

"Let's take a shower and change into new clothes!"

Villa area.

"Why are you busying yourself during the New Year instead of just staying at home?"

Zeng Guoxiang saw that his old lady got up early in the morning and was busy preparing meals and cleaning. Now she went into the kitchen and mumbled something, and he didn't know what she was busy with.

Logically speaking, the family should have prepared the New Year's goods a few days ago. Seeing that his wife was busy all year round, Lao Zeng was really a little depressed. "You are born to work hard. Can't you come out and watch TV like us?"

Aunt Fang poked her head out of the kitchen and said, "You guys take care of yourselves. We've prepared everything. Xiao Su probably hasn't come home yet. I'll give him some of the meatballs, fried potatoes, and fried tofu that I made for our family."

Lao Zeng frowned and thought for a while, "Xiao Bin, there are two bottles of Moutai in my study. Go get them and ask your mother to take them as well."

"Ah? Those two bottles you've been reluctant to drink?"

"Stop talking nonsense and go quickly."

What are two bottles of Moutai?
Although Zeng Guoxiang did not make much money after completing the "Taste of China" project, he did gain fame!

Now, let alone Jingzhou, even in the province, Lao Zeng's company has one of the best reputations. If any restaurant wants to build a better banquet hall, the first one they think of must be Lao Zeng.

Not to mention anything else, just one name: they decorated the state banquet restaurant!

This reputation is much more useful to Lao Zeng's decoration company than the money earned. Two bottles of Moutai are nothing!
Aunt Fang spent a long time cleaning up. She was carrying a large bamboo basket filled with all kinds of cooked food, all semi-finished products. In her right hand, she held two bottles of Maotai that looked a little worn out. "You two stay here first. I'll be back for dinner later."

"Okay, go ahead." Lao Zeng waved the hand holding the remote control.

Hilltop villa area.

"What the hell are these? I'm not going to tell you to buy the most expensive one, a thirty thousand dollar firework! What the hell are these?"

Zhang Jiayi stood at the door of her own warehouse angrily, "Dad, don't you love me anymore!"

Old Zhang was smiling, but when he heard this, he immediately became nervous, "Don't talk nonsense! Don't say unlucky things during the Chinese New Year! It's just a firework. You wait!"

He took out his cell phone and made several calls in a row.

Old Zhang then pulled Zhang Jiayi's arm in a flattering manner, "Dad has arranged everything for you! I got five big fireworks worth 30,000 yuan, and some small pieces, plus that thing called Mountains and Rivers, a total of 300,000 yuan. Hehe, my daughter still likes to set off fireworks at this age, how great!"

Zhang Jiayi pouted in satisfaction, "Got it, send it to the development zone for me!"

After that, he jumped into the cockpit of the G-Class and said, "Dad, don't wait for me for dinner! I'm going to eat for free!"

Coal boss Lao Zhang looked at the rear of the G-Class in confusion and smelled the exhaust fumes in the air.

You asked me to buy three hundred thousand worth of fireworks so you can set them off with those wild boys outside?
Did you go to have New Year’s Eve dinner with others?

Oh, that’s not right. Boss Su is not a wild boy.

"Girls can't be kept at home when they grow up. Auntie, ask the driver to deliver a truckload of those cherries and other imported fruits to Meiwei and load them onto the farm truck!"

"This girl only knows how to take the fireworks, but she doesn't even know how to bring some food. Is a truckload of fruit enough for them?"

And in Jingzhou City, in a very ordinary residential area.

"Mom, I won't be back for dinner tonight! Don't worry, I'm not a child. Yes, give me another mandarin fish. I want to show off my skills to our boss today!"

Zhang Li was wearing a Hanfu costume, her hair was tied up in an ancient style, and she had a silver bun on her head.

"Yeah, got it! If I stay up all night, I'll be back tomorrow morning. If not, I'll be back before 12 o'clock~"

With a bag in her left hand and another bag in her right hand, Zhang Li also went out. However, when she stood at the gate of the community, she suddenly felt a little confused.

It seems like the taxi drivers have also gone home to celebrate the New Year. How can I get to the development zone?

Just as she was trying to think of a solution, she suddenly saw a wine-red Mercedes-Benz in front of her and screamed excitedly, "Sister Ling!"

The car window rolled down, and Ling Shuyu looked over expressionlessly, "Get in the car."

Zhang Li got into the right side of the back seat.

After all, there are two huge dolls on the front seat and the left side of the back seat, and this is the only seat where people can sit.

After getting in the car, Zhang Li couldn't stop talking, "Sister Ling, how did you know I was going to the company? Did you really guess it yourself? Wow, Sister Ling, you are so amazing, aren't you?"

Ling Shuyu looked at the empty road ahead, and the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

Who kept sending her WeChat messages in the afternoon?
He said that it was so pitiful for the boss to be alone in the company, and he was going to give him a surprise in the evening, and he also said that he would leave on time at 9 o'clock in the evening.

Is Zhang Li out of her mind?

When the car drove to Jianghe Avenue, Ling Shuyu saw a girl walking on the side of the road, carrying a big bag in one hand and a big bucket of Coke in the other.

"Shu Ting?" Zhang Li also saw it, rolled down the window and waved out the window, "Sister Shu Ting, get in the car! Where are you going?"

He Shuting was walking slowly. When she heard the voice, she turned around and asked in surprise, "Shu Yu, Zhang Li?"

"I'm going to the company, what about you?"

Zhang Li laughed, "We're going to the company too! Let's get in the car. What's Sister Shu Ting holding?"

When putting it in the trunk, Zhang Li took a curious look at it.

Osmanthus cake, peach cake, mung bean cake, stuffed cake
"I participated in club activities when I was in college and learned these things," He Shuting said embarrassedly.

Zhang Li unceremoniously pinched out a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and stuffed it into her mouth, "Great, great!"

He Shuting then smiled and got into the car. Although it was a bit crowded, it was much warmer.

northeast.

"Is this okay? Are you sure they'll deliver the package to you today?"

"What express delivery? That's my buddy, my good buddy! He was the guy who stood up and distributed food to everyone when we got married last time. Do you remember him?" Han Cheng said speechlessly.

Liu Shengnan rested her chin on her hand and thought for a long time, "Grand Judge?"

"Yes, Li Ming arrived in Jingzhou yesterday and said he would be the first customer after Delicious opens. I asked him to bring the things with him, so don't worry, he will definitely bring them!"

Liu Shengnan nodded, "That's fine, sauerkraut, blood sausage, anything else?"

"There are also preserved eggs, cold noodles, Changbai Mountain ginseng, and black fungus. They are all our specialties!"

Sister Shengnan then hummed with satisfaction, "That's fine."

Delicious food, 19th floor.

Aunt Fang used her key to unlock the door and entered the office area. "This kid, he doesn't even know to turn off the lights when no one is around. He doesn't know how expensive commercial electricity is."

She turned off the lights in the office area, then opened the door and looked into Su Chen's office. There was no one inside, so she looked at the cafeteria.

There were a few somewhat shabby cold dishes on the table, including pork head, pork skin jelly, and peanuts.

Continue into the kitchen.

On the chopping board there was a pot of dumpling stuffing and the kneaded dough.

"Can one person handle it?"

Aunt Fang washed her hands, took out the fried potatoes, fried tofu, deep-fried meatballs and roasted pork she had brought, and found a small casserole.

Put a layer of cabbage at the bottom, then a layer of potatoes, then the next layer is fried meatballs, and top it off with six or seven slices of roasted pork.

I made a simple sauce with light soy sauce, sesame oil, salt and MSG, poured it into a casserole, and lit the stove.

Then he started to knead the dough into long strips and got busy.

Just as the first long strip was rolled, three people rushed in from outside the door.

"Oh! Aunt Fang!" Zhang Li ran over, "You're here too!"

"I don't want Xiao Su to be hungry during the New Year alone, so I want to get him something to eat."

Zhang Li smelled the aroma of meat in the casserole and fanned her nose with her little hands, "It smells so good! Are you going to make dumplings? Look what I brought!"

A processed and cleaned mandarin fish, "Boss! Today I'm going to show him my skills, hehe!"

Aunt Fang smiled and nodded.

In this world, only Zhang Li dares to say such things, right?
Give it to a second-level member and show him some skills.

"Here are some pastries." He Shuting took out various pastries she had made herself, found a round plate and placed them neatly on it, which instantly improved the appearance of the pastries a lot.

Ling Shuyu came empty-handed and didn't bring anything with her, but she just stayed in Su Chen's office for a while and no one knew what she was doing.

I am washing my hands now, preparing to try making dumplings.

"Move it here, here, yes, just put it here!"

When they were busy, they heard another voice coming from outside the door. He Shuting tilted her head and looked outside. "It seems to be Jiayi?"

The kitchen door opened with a bang.

"Boss. Hey? Why are you all here? Didn't you notify me that you were working overtime?"

Ling Shuyu was amused by Zhang Jiayi, "We didn't work overtime, and we didn't notify each other. We just met here by chance."

"Oh! All right, I'm here for the right thing. Look what I brought!"

Zhang Jiayi held the kitchen door with her hands, and someone outside started to move things in.

Ten boxes of 5J cherries, some Musang King durian, several boxes of prunes, grapefruits, and blood oranges.
Seeing all kinds of fruits being moved into the kitchen, He Shuting asked in confusion, "Are we going to sell fruit plates at the beginning of the year?"

Zhang Jiayi said arrogantly, "What? I brought this for the boss! Oh no, everyone is here, I should say it's for everyone! I also got over 300,000 worth of fireworks, let's all go downstairs and set them off at twelve o'clock!"

There was a moment of silence in the kitchen.

So, Miss Zhang Jiayi, are the people in your class here to make money?

All the fruits were laid out. Zhang Jiayi selected some of the various fruits and made an extremely exaggerated oversized fruit plate. She placed it contentedly on the large round table outside. She also brought the few small cold dishes that Su Chen had made earlier into the kitchen.

"Why are we eating this on New Year's Day? I'll ask my family to send something better!"

Aunt Fang quickly stopped Zhang Jiayi and said, "Stop, stop. There are already a lot of messes here. Just eat enough and don't waste it."

"Hello! Is Mr. Su here?" A young man appeared at the door with a huge backpack on his back.

In the dead of winter, the young man was still sweating.

"Yes, but Boss Su is not here." Ling Shuyu said.

Li Ming heaved a sigh of relief and threw the things on his back onto the floor. "Okay! These are things Liu Shengnan gave to Boss Su. They are all specialties from Northeast China, including blood sausage and sauerkraut. Hurry up and get them to eat."

Everyone looked at each other.

Shengnan went back to her husband's family's home to celebrate the New Year some time ago, so I didn't expect that she would send something over at this time.

Blood sausage. Sounds a bit scary!
Ling Shuyu handed a bottle of water to Li Ming, "Thank you for the trouble. It's the New Year's Day and you have to make another trip."

Li Ming looked around the kitchen curiously. "No problem! We've met before. We met at Liu Shengnan's wedding."

"Well, we are open on the third day of the Chinese New Year, right? Can I make a reservation now? My family has all moved to Jingzhou, and we are going to celebrate the New Year here this year! We came here just to have a delicious feast on the third day of the Chinese New Year!"

Ling Shuyu was stunned and a little shocked.

You didn’t spend the New Year at home, and now you’re coming to Jingzhou?

But right now, the orders for Delicious are almost exploding, and the reception on the third day of the Lunar New Year can only be arranged according to the order of the orders.

When Zhang Li wanted to explain the situation, Ling Shuyu spoke first, "No problem, give me your name and contact information, and I'll arrange it for you in the third grade."

"okay!"

Li Ming quickly left his contact information, picked up a handful of cherries, and then left Delicious.

"It's not easy for him to come all the way here to deliver something to us. If that doesn't work, we can just arrange a table for him in the office area on the 19th floor." Ling Shuyu sighed.

Aunt Fang also felt that this young man had a hard time.

But on second thought, I was quite happy. "This shows that our company is getting better and better! Everyone, stop standing there and do what you need to do. Let's make dumplings!"

The rolling pin was flying in the aunt's hand, and she rolled out the dumpling skins so skillfully.

Several girls sat together, talking and laughing while making dumplings.

The casserole on the stove next to it was bubbling with steam, Zhang Li's steamed fish was also making hissing sounds, and a layer of steam was gradually covering the window.

Su Chen took a nice bath.

"It feels so good! I haven't taken such a good bath in a long time!"

Wrapped in a bath towel, I walked across the office area and returned to the lounge in the office.

Just as he was about to take his clothes, Su Chen found something wrong.

"Why is there an extra set of underwear on my bed?"

Still red.

A red vest and red long johns are fine, but what do red shorts and red socks mean?
Oh, and a brand new suit with a pink shirt?

Su Chen picked up the note next to his clothes.

【New Year, prosperous and hot. 】

You can recognize it at a glance; this is Ling Shuyu's handwriting.

"Okay, okay." Su Chen subconsciously looked outside the door, "Did Ling Shuyu come? Or leave again?"

No matter what, change your clothes and go out for a look.

Delicious, parking lot.

"What the hell! Who doesn't have eyes? Can you stop the car?"

"What the hell is going on in such a big place? You have to block me. It's just time to go to the toilet. Is there anyone here? Where is the person? Where is the driver?"

Bai Xiaobo stomped his feet in anger!
His car was sandwiched between two farm tools vehicles.

There was an empty car on the left, and on the right was a load of various fireworks and firecrackers, but there was no one in the car.

This is really weird!

Didn’t he just park the car and go to the toilet, and this is what he looked like when he came out?
And the car door couldn't be opened because of his crowding!

"I have some good wine in my car! Let me open the door and get my stuff out!"

Bai Xiaobo leaned against the front of the car angrily, with his hands on his hips, looking at the two farm vehicles, as if he had made some decision.

I'm not leaving today. I'll just stand here and see if you still want this car!
If you dare to come over and open it, I will beat you up!

Damn it. (End of this chapter)
