Chapter 68 Late-night barbecue, tricked waiter
"I choose mission one!"
After get off work, other employees went home, and Su Chen became an empty-nester, but he was not bored.
[Main mission: comprehensive. Your restaurant has begun to take shape. In order to let the restaurant enter a virtuous business cycle, you have decided to produce some dishes with higher unit prices. Please sell 100 dishes with a unit price of at least 88 yuan within a week. 】
[Task reward: active skill, white jade hand. 】
The reason why Task 2 was not chosen is simple.
According to Su Chen's concept of food, if a dish is sold for an outrageous price of 9,999, it should be said that it is not considered gourmet.
At most, this is just eating a relatively precious ingredient.
Moreover, the content of task one also coincides with what I have to do recently [increase vegetable prices]. There is no need to do it specially, just let it take its course and wait for it to be completed.
This fits Su Chen's character very well.
After finalizing the choice, Su Chen walked around the company. The sequelae of sleeping hard all afternoon was that it was easy to fall asleep at night.
Moreover, Su Chen had been enjoying the dishes with the distinguished guests during lunch. Su Chen didn't eat much at all. He rubbed his belly and went to the kitchen to see that there were still a lot of ingredients left in preparation for the reception.
‘Prepare yourself a dinner, hehe! ’
Su Chen found an electric grill pan that had not been used for a long time from the kitchen.
Cut the remaining three-fat and three-lean pork belly into thin slices about 3 mm thick, then put it in a basin and add cooking wine, salt, five-spice powder, cumin powder and chili powder, stir it with light soy sauce and throw it into the refrigerator.
I washed myself a whole piece of lettuce and prepared to wrap it and eat it when grilling the meat later.
‘Isn’t this beer expired? ’
Su Chen found a lot of Big Green Stick beer in the kitchen's small warehouse, which was the cheapest on the market at 3 yuan a bottle.
It was full of dust, but it was clean after tearing off the plastic packaging.
Put out a piece of beer, heat the oil in a pan, fry the raw peanuts in 60% hot oil, and sprinkle with some salt.
One set of 'Fight till dawn' was done with a flash of oil.
In the end, I just grabbed a few prawns, cut a piece of old tofu, and a small pot of mushrooms.
Su Chen doesn't like eating these things very much, but just eating meat is too monotonous, so it's a good choice to make it as an embellishment.
As for the dipping sauce, there are no ready-made ones in the kitchen, but this is not a problem for Su Chen.
Mix a small amount of soybean flour and peanut flour, fresh chili powder plus melon seed powder, sesame seeds, pepper, salt, cumin powder, chicken essence and MSG, and you have a fragrant dipping sauce.
Oh yes, and coriander powder!
Su Chen planned to move all the ingredients in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of his office, then open the windows to let out the fumes, pour beer, grill pork belly, and then use his mobile phone to read comics from the food supplier.
hiss!
It’s beautiful just thinking about it!
Just do it!
Ding dong~
It's the sound of a cell phone.
【Are you taking orders? 】
‘Who will take the order so late?’
Su Chen cursed, and if you don't go to the product manager to take orders, why go to the boss?
Turn on your phone and take a look.
Oops! It’s Ling Shuyu!
If you don't accept what others say, you must accept what Ling Shuyu says. This is his big customer, and he might have another big order delivered to his door one day.
[Su Chen: Take it! 】
[Ling Shuyu: The budget is whatever you want. Any need. Taboos are casual. Just do something]
What a strange order.
Anything is casual, then
[Su Chen: I just prepared barbecue. If you come to eat, I can treat you for free. 】
After this reception, Shang Mingke paid the bill of three thousand, which Su Chen had not had time to tell Ling Shuyu.
But there is no need to say that one code is the same.
A small barbecue is still a treat!
[Ling Shuyu: Thank you, wait for me for 5 minutes. 】
Su Chen put down his cell phone, thought for a while and moved all his things to the office. He also took two small rugs and laid them down so that he could sit on the floor.
The office space is large and there is no problem of avoiding suspicion.
Well, it’s all done!
Not long after, Ling Shuyu arrived in high heels, and the sound of waiting was particularly loud in the empty office.
The light was a little weak, but Su Chen could still tell that Ling Shuyu's face was a little tired, and his eyes had lost their previous vigor and looked a little hollow.
"Come here, you can see the night view."
The two walked into the office. Ling Shuyu took off his shoes and sat cross-legged by the window.
"You're not home so late?"
Ling Shuyu turned his head and looked out the window, "I rarely go home. I often sleep in the office."
"What a workaholic. By the way, how is your plan going today?" Su Chen used tweezers to start picking up some chopped onions on the baking sheet.
"Failed."
Ling Shuyu spoke cleanly and without any emotion.
"Ah?" Su Chen stopped moving his hand, "I see those two are quite happy. How could they fail? Is there something wrong with the plan?"
Ling Shuyu shook his head and said nothing more, and Su Chen also fell silent.
The disadvantage of electric griddle is that it needs to be brushed with oil. Otherwise, the meat will easily stick to the baking pan.
Su Chen sprayed a layer of vegetable oil directly into the pot where the meat was placed, which not only ensured the tenderness of the meat, but also prevented the meat slices from sticking to the baking pan.
Scrub the small pieces of onion back and forth, and then put the slices of marinated pork belly on the plate.
Sizzle~~
Under the high temperature, the pork belly curled up immediately. Su Chen pressed it slightly with tweezers, and the visible fat slid into the oil pan along the lines of the baking pan.
"Here, eat it." Su Chen put a piece of meat on the plate in front of Ling Shuyu.
"Is it okay?"
The girl didn't know what she was thinking, and turned back in surprise. How long has it been roasted?
"It's okay. The meat is cut very thin. If it is roasted again, it will be old. Now it can be eaten."
Su Chen put another piece of meat on himself, and when he pressed it just now, he deliberately used force on the fat part.
At this moment, at the place where the fat and the lean were connected, the protruding part was roasted and burnt, and the fat and the lean part was slightly reduced, because most of the fat inside was roasted out.
Dipped in Su Chen's homemade seasoning, the smell of the barbecue changed dramatically in an instant!
"Ah!" Su Chen put a piece of pork belly directly into his mouth.
The aroma of the seasoning ran wildly in his mouth, and the barbecue was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The meat juice flowed all over his mouth when he bit it.
What else do you need a bicycle or a watch to eat at ten o'clock in the evening!
After eating the barbecue, Su Chen opened a bottle of beer with a "biu".
"Do you want to drink?"
Ling Shuyu was stunned, "Drink it!"
He poured beer into the glasses in front of the two people, and a bottle of beer was just right for two glasses.
"Drink! Tun tun tun tun!" Su Chen raised his head and drank it in one gulp. Ling Shuyu was stunned and raised his head to drink it in one gulp.
"Ha~~ It's really good!"
Put a few more slices of meat in the middle of the grill, "Don't be impatient when grilling meat, you have to eat it slowly. If you grill too much at a time, the rest will be dry. How does it taste?"
Ling Shuyu nodded gently, "It's delicious."
Ling Shuyu rarely drinks on weekdays. He felt his face slightly hot after just one glass of beer.
Took another bite of the grilled meat and unconsciously picked up the glass and drank another glass.
Three glasses in a row.
Ling Shuyu sighed, "I really envy you for being able to cook."
"Oh?" Su Chen pressed the grilled meat and looked up at the girl opposite, "Why?"
"As for the food, if you cook well, customers will praise you for being delicious! It's different from us designers. What's the use of doing well?"
I see.
Su Chen sighed. The girl opened up after drinking three glasses of wine because the plan failed.
"That's right. But, whether it's cooking or designing, if you really like it, success or failure is not that important, right? At least when you are doing it, you are happy. Happiness is the most important thing." These words are from Su Chen's heart.
After the inexplicable crossing, he went from being confused at the beginning to having a direction in life now.
On the surface, Su Chen seemed to have been trying every means to revive the company, but in fact, cooking itself is something he likes very much.
Isn't it good to be with everything you like?
These words made Ling Shuyu fall into deep thought again. It seemed that she subconsciously picked up the barbecue sent by Su Chen and drank a glass of wine from time to time.
If Su Chen hadn't been able to receive the prompt [Deliciousness value from Ling Shuyu +999] all the time, he would have thought that this girl was drunk.
In fact, Ling Shuyu was thinking about a question in her heart.
Happiness is the most important thing?
From childhood to adulthood, she seemed to have never considered what she liked and what she could do to make herself happy.
She only knew that no matter what she did, she had to do it to the best of her ability!
After a long time, so long that Su Chen had finished eating the barbecue, there were only eight button mushrooms on the baking tray, each with a small piece of light cream inside.
"Boss Su, if I also want to learn how to cook, can you teach me?"
Huh?
Su Chen drank about four bottles of Big Green Stick and was a little dizzy. "What's the big deal! My employees learn to cook every day!"
"How about I come to work in your company?"
"Oh, Director Ling, I can't afford it!"
"Just give me food."
"I think I'm a little short of manpower recently. The mushrooms are ready."
Seeing Ling Shuyu holding chopsticks and about to pick them up, Su Chen reminded him, "You just need to drink the mushroom juice inside. The mushrooms themselves are not delicious."
"Oh"
After five or six minutes of roasting, the inside of each mushroom was full of juice. If Su Chen hadn't reminded him, Ling Shuyu would really eat it with seasoning.
Chopsticks carefully picked up the mushrooms and drank the mushroom juice inside into his mouth like drinking wine.
Before, I felt a little salty and greasy in my mouth because of eating barbecue, but the moment the mushroom juice came in, those feelings were washed away completely!
Only fresh!
Unlike fish, the freshness of mushroom juice is like a natural flavor, very refreshing!
When the juice enters the stomach, the light creamy aroma comes back.
It tastes good!
[Deliciousness value from Ling Shuyu +999]
‘You are really an experience baby’
For this meal, Ling Shuyu provided at least nearly 10,000 experience points!
“Okay, originally I had a barbecue dinner alone, and I shared it with you for free.” Su Chen patted his butt and stood up.
Ling Shuyu also stood up, and the two looked at the night view outside the window side by side. It must be said that it was indeed beautiful.
Hmm?
Ling Shuyu felt a little dizzy because he drank some wine, but he was not drunk. From Boss Su's position, he looked at the lighted room over there.
'It seems that the lights in my office are not turned off'
Thinking back to the night when he worked overtime before, Ling Shuyu was happily eating the pickled fish and eggplant made by Boss Su, and there was a 'pervert' opposite him taking pictures of himself with his mobile phone.
That perspective
Hiss!
Ling Shuyu took a breath, "Boss Su, thank you for your hospitality, then I will leave first."
"Well, take care, I won't see you off."
Wait, wait~
Listening to the sound of Ling Shuyu's high heels gradually fading away, Su Chen touched his chin. Why did this girl come and go in a hurry?
That's it.
He simply cleaned up the office and looked at the watch. It was already late.
Su Chen washed up and lay down on the bed beautifully.
The next few days.
Everything is normal at Delicious. More than 70 people from Xinghui come to buy steamed buns and millet porridge every morning, and they come regularly at noon.
Some people eat pickled fish, and others choose to eat stir-fried noodles.
As for garlic eggplant, this dish has completely disappeared from the menu of Delicious because the warehouse is seriously insufficient.
In total, Xinghui employees have to spend at least 40 yuan at Delicious every day!
Seven days in a row.
When there was only one week left before the rent was paid, Su Chen finally began to get nervous.
"The fixed income is nearly 3,000 yuan a day, and the turnover this week is even less than 30,000. Shengnan, how much cash do we have now?"
Liu Shengnan was called to Su Chen's office, holding her handwritten small account book, "Counting the previous 55,000, we now have a total of 83,000 in cash."
"We still need 70,000." Su Chen said.
When receiving the 30,000 big order, all the employees of Delicious were full of hope for the future, but after a week, everyone has obviously become panicked recently.
Due to the special geographical location, it is unrealistic to have individual customers.
He Shuting's Douyin account did not attract many customers.
Earning 70,000 yuan in a week, an average of 10,000 yuan a day, seems a bit unrealistic in the current situation.
In the warehouse, there are only some long-lasting ingredients such as cabbage and potatoes, which are not very meaningful to cook alone.
There is one thing that Su Chen finds quite rare.
In the past week, I have been researching dishes worth 88 yuan and have no clues. This task did not prompt the end, but showed that it has not started yet.
This is quite interesting.
It seems that the task will not officially start until it is developed.
Now there is no rush to do the task. Even if the task fails, Su Chen doesn't care. At most, he will lose a skill. The new main task may have better rewards. The key is to find a way to renew the rent.
At this moment, Su Chen and Liu Shengnan fell into silence, thinking about their own things.
The knock at the door broke the silence in the office.
"Brother Chen? Boss?"
"Come in and tell me."
It was Bai Xiaobo's voice.
"Boss." Xiaobai grabbed the back of his head after entering the room, "When did you recruit people?"
"Recruit people?" This nonsense made Su Chen a little confused.
"Yeah, how come you recruited the design director? Can our temple afford to support such a great god?"
Ah? ? ?
Su Chen stood up suddenly, "Who?"
"Director Ling, she just came, saying that she came to report to you, and said that you promised her that she was busy handing over work a few days ago, and now she came to join us."
What the hell?
Su Chen was completely dumbfounded.
If it wasn't something said while drinking, could it be taken seriously? And he didn't clearly agree at that time!
"What's wrong, Brother Chen, do you want to go out and take a look?"
"Go and take a look!" Su Chen hurriedly pulled himself away and ran outside.
Good guy!
Ling Shuyu actually found a workstation for herself and started packing up. Today, she changed into a simple sportswear. Her hair, which was originally very stylish, was turned into a ponytail, which made her look full of sunshine and vitality.
He Shuting stared at the uninvited guest with a fierce look, feeling that her beauty was a little suppressed.
Damn it!
"Hi, Boss Su, I'm here to report." Ling Shuyu's face actually showed a very rare smile.
"Aren't you this..."
"What? Boss Su doesn't keep his word? I have already quit my job at Xinghui."
This is to check my army!
Do you really think that I, Su Chen, will fall for this?
"I can't afford to pay you a high salary." Su Chen was ready to talk with money.
In fact, adding an employee is not a big problem. Sometimes the kitchen is really a little too busy.
The key is Ling Shuyu, who was a big customer of Delicious before, and now he suddenly wants to join the company. This contrast is a bit difficult to accept.
"Then how much are you going to pay me?" Ling Shuyu asked with his head tilted.
Su Chen shook three fingers.
"Thirty thousand? Well, it's not as much as what I make over there, but it's still okay. Thank you, boss!"
Hearing this number, all the employees of Delicious were shocked.
Thirty thousand?
He Shuting picked her fingers and counted. Are you kidding me? I only make eighteen thousand a month, and you just got thirty thousand?
Liu Shengnan's eyes widened. That's right? Now the company's total funds are only tens of thousands, so why should we directly give her 30,000? Will this put the company into bankruptcy?
Bai Xiaobo was also confused. Thirty thousand, do you know how hard it was for us to earn those thirty thousand? That’s 30,000 yuan that I earned just after a trip to Hubei Province!
Su Chen coughed awkwardly, "It's three thousand."
call
It was clear that the employees were collectively relieved when they heard the delicious food coming.
Three thousand, that’s okay.
"Three thousand is fine. I told you, just give me food, um, employee meals." Ling Shuyu didn't seem to care at all how much it cost, and sat down at the packed workstation very calmly. .
sweat!
Su Chen was a little at a loss when someone messed with him for the first time, but he had to try his best to comfort himself because of the water thrown out by his words.
Three thousand to recruit a waiter, no loss at all!
"Katsuo, tell her about the company. As for the position, let me think about it."
"No need." Ling Shuyu put away his smile and stood up, "I have understood everything clearly. This is a plan I made. Can the boss take a look at it?"
"Why do you like making plans so much?" After saying this, Su Chen took it and asked by the way, "How do you know about our company?"
"I just told Li Mingtao that if he doesn't tell me the actual situation of Delicious Food, I will tell the big boss about him."
hiss! ! !
All the staff at Delicious took in a breath of air-conditioning again, almost turning the July temperature into the coldest month of winter.
The human spirit Li Mingtao was tricked by this woman?
The feeling of palace fighting came over immediately!
Su Chen was also ashamed, this woman was so scary.
But this plan
At the beginning, the current dilemma of Taishui Lai is directly raised, which is the matter of paying rent.
The latter provides what Ling Shuyu considers to be the best solution.
After taking a closer look, Su Chen felt that it was quite reliable. If it could really be done,
To be honest, recruiting a talent like Ling Shuyu for three thousand yuan is definitely a profit!
"Have a meeting, have a meeting!" Su Chen waved his hand while holding the notebook, "Ling Shuyu, please tell everyone about your idea right now."
Other employees were still confused, and everyone crowded into the conference room.
After Liu Shengnan sat down, he said abruptly, "Mr. Ling, did you expect that you would come, so you left all the things in the conference room behind?"
"Forehead!"
Ling Shuyu touched her forehead. She really hadn't thought about it that way. She simply thought it was a waste of time to move these worthless things.
There is no answer to this nonsensical question.
Ling Shuyu may not be good at cooking, but when it comes to explaining plans, he is definitely good at it.
"The company's biggest dilemma now is to solve the rent problem. We don't have much time left. This is a solution that I think is more appropriate for the time being."
Ling Shuyu plugged in the USB drive and turned on the projector, and an exquisite PPT appeared on the big screen.
The employees who came here swallowed their saliva.
Sister, do you know that being so professional will make us look like useless people!
Let me tell you something: Because you have to rush to subscribe in the first month, so that you can get better recommendations later, so I will update it twice recently, each chapter is 5,000 words, which is 10,000 per day.
You can tell me how many words in each chapter are more comfortable to read, and I will compromise and improve it later.
But for the sake of even ordering in the early stage, we hope for your understanding.
Also, at the beginning of the month, I beg you for your monthly ticket!
