Border Cook

Chapter 578: No Hardship
"What do you think!" The seller rolled his eyes.

You are doing something good, but you have to take a detour. What can anyone say about you?

The seller shook his head and sighed for a long time. Before leaving, he still looked at the owner of the pawnshop several times with disappointment.

The shopkeeper said, "..."

Grabbing a passing clerk, the pawnbroker owner asked in a depressed tone, "If I had known this, what would the injustice I have suffered these days be worth?"

The clerk patted the dental shop owner on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Boss, you have done nothing wrong."

The shopkeeper said, "..."

Well, well, we’ve finally found a suitable place for Madam Xia, right?
At least the ending is happy, as for the rest...

unimportant!
On this side, for the house that had already been purchased, Xia Mingyue began to carry out new renovations after receiving the title deed and land deeds.

This house is located in Taohua Lane, next to Xinghua Lane, and is back-to-back with Xia Mingyue's home. Xia Mingyue thought of setting up a corner door from her home to the central kitchen.

Normally, when a group of people went to the central kitchen, they only went through the main entrance in Taohua Lane. She usually didn't go through this corner door, but only walked there when she was lazy, to make it convenient for herself.

All the previous houses in the courtyard were demolished, the courtyard walls were renovated and raised, and the interior of the courtyard was rearranged according to the various businesses of Xia Ji today.

The layout is mainly divided into four small areas: preparation area, operation room, kitchen area and rest area.

All places should be closely connected, and each area should be differentiated because of the different items provided to franchisees. At the same time, there are areas for common use. It can be said that they are both differentiated and closely connected, so as to maximize the use of the venue without causing extra workload for the workers.

Xia Mingyue drew a preliminary blueprint of the new central kitchen, but she was also worried that she was only drawing the blueprint based on her own needs and it would not be very practical. So she simply invited Liu Caisheng, a professional bricklayer, to take a look and see if it was feasible.

Liu Caisheng looked at the blueprint while asking Xia Mingyue questions. After he understood all the layouts on the blueprint, he nodded and said, "Ms. Xia, this blueprint is well drawn and very practical. However, for a storage room, I suggest that the opening be larger and the depth be shallower."

"In this way, the wind can blow in easily and moisture is not easy to come in. The depth of the living area can be deeper. After all, except for those on duty at night, most people take a break at noon or in the afternoon. In autumn and winter, the stove is connected to the kang in the house. No matter how bad the weather is, the house is warm and dry, and there is no worry about moisture coming in."

"This way, we can save a lot of space occupied by the houses and leave more space in the yard. This way, when people who buy goods enter the yard, there will be plenty of free space and they won't be stuck with their heads bumped into each other."

"And here, we can build some sheds, some open stoves and places to store firewood. It will look bright and can be used in emergencies. It won't be a problem..."

Based on the drawings drawn by Xia Mingyue, Liu Caisheng put forward some very pertinent suggestions.

Xia Mingyue thought it was very reasonable, so she adopted most of them and handed over the task of building the central kitchen to Liu Caisheng.

The work of purchasing bricks, stones, and wood, as well as hiring workers for the work of big and small workers, was also handed over to Liu Caisheng. He only had to draw up a list and estimate the money, and then go to her to withdraw it according to Liu Caisheng's own plan. Thinking that this was Xia's central kitchen, Liu Caisheng did not dare to be negligent in the slightest, and hurriedly made arrangements. Considering that the weather was a little cold now, most of the work needed to be done before the weather cooled down completely, he found a few skilled workers with whom he had a good relationship overnight and started working together.

Tear down the old house and buy new materials...

Liu Caisheng and others were working hard.

Xia Mingyue couldn't help much, so she could only instruct Yin Qiao to prepare enough tea for Liu Caisheng and others every day, and instruct the central kitchen to prepare enough meals so that the workers could eat and drink enough.

The wages were reasonable, the food was of high quality, and they were working for Xia Mingyue, so Liu Caisheng and the others became more motivated. They came early and left late every day, and some even wanted to help meet the deadline under the cover of night.

But when he thought that if he did the work in vain, the quality of the work would not be very high, and it would not meet Xia Mingyue's requirements, which would cause trouble for her, he had to give up the idea and just helped to speed up the progress as much as possible on the basis of ensuring the quality.

Here, sisters Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu have been working in the central kitchen for several days.

Although they were treated quite well at home, they seldom cooked by themselves and were not familiar with kitchen matters. Therefore, they were assigned to do odd jobs such as fetching water and washing dishes.

These tasks are very easy to do and not too strenuous, so two people can handle them.

But even so, the two were still in a panic on the first day because they were unfamiliar with the place and did not have as much strength as they had imagined, and they got into trouble several times.

Either they accidentally spill the water in the bucket all over the floor, or they are not used to using the loofah and broom when washing, so they don't clean very well.

The two sisters were extremely anxious and felt guilty. They thought they had benefited from Xia Mingyue but had caused her a lot of trouble. They were even more afraid that they would be disliked by other people working in the central kitchen...

But the others did not show any disapproval. Instead, they first asked if they were injured, then helped to deal with the trouble caused by the accident, and then taught the two of them how to do it better and more smoothly.

There was no blame, not even a harsh word, but a smile on his face and friendly words, which made Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu, who had not felt warmth for a long time, feel as if they were in the warm spring day. The dead trees in their hearts were quietly sprouting...

The two felt very warm in their hearts, and secretly made up their minds to cherish the current opportunity and do the job in their hands well.

If you don't have strength in your hands, then practice more and eat more. You will be able to do it in a few days.

If you are not quick enough at your work, then do more. As you do it for a longer time and more times, you will become familiar with it and naturally become more skilled.

If you feel that you have caused trouble for Xia Mingyue, then you should be more considerate. In addition to the tasks assigned by Song and others, you should also sweep the floor in the yard and pour out the slop in the kitchen... You should take the initiative to do all the tasks!

The two sisters worked hard, and their proficiency at work increased visibly every day. In just a few days, Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu received praise and recognition from everyone.
