The three people sitting opposite Zhou Shi looked at me, and I looked at you, with astonishment written all over their faces.
"Shopkeeper, what kind of wind is this blowing?" Lao Zhao asked first.
"If you have any questions, you can tell me." Zhou Shi replied calmly.
"No matter what happens to our Fengde Building, it is still a famous building in Jiangdu! Do you want me to cook for those Lipas?" Chen Dayou puffed his beard and said with a glare, "I won't do it! If this spreads out, won't it damage our sign?
?"
"Yes, from the shopkeeper." Lao Zhao also agreed, "Our ancestors in Fengdelou came from the capital. They even served at the emperor's table back then. It was because of this reputation that they were able to gain a foothold in Jiangdu. What if this changes?
The canteen at Chengpao Pier will make others laugh!"
Zhou Shi glanced at the crowd expressionlessly. He had already been mentally prepared, knowing that his idea would be opposed by them.
"The creditors are blocking the door. Isn't this enough to make them laugh?" He said coldly, "Old Zhao, you should know best what is going on in Fengde House's accounts. With the way we are doing business now, when will we be able to repay the debt?
?"
Lao Zhao shrank his neck and stopped talking.
Chen Dayou said at the top of his voice: "From now on, there will be shirtless and sweaty Liba drinking and boxing in Fengde Building. Who will come to our place to eat? How will we do this business?"
"They don't need to come over. We prepare the meals and deliver them to them."
"Ah? You want us to deliver our food to others?" Chen Dayou crossed his legs, turned his body away, and said, "How can there be such a rule? We are a restaurant here, not a canteen contracted by some foreman.
!"
Zhou Shi counterattacked: "You always talk about rules and regulations. Let me ask you, what are rules and what are rules?"
"This..."
"Planning circles and drawing squares, rules are nothing but tools." Zhou Shi said, "Back then, our Shandong family, the founder of Fengde Building, was squeezed out by the rules of the capital and went to Jiangdu to open a shop. But the gang in the capital every day
Even if you talk about 'rules', who would have thought that Fengde Tower could gain a firm foothold in Jiangshan and conquer a huge territory?"
Chen Dayou is an illiterate old man. When the shopkeeper said this, he felt that it made sense.
"Ahem, Master Chen, the shopkeeper, please calm down." Agui then said, "If you ask me, everyone here is a customer, who's business is not business? But although Master Chen's craftsmanship is nothing to say, but those who run away
What good food have the crews on the boat eaten? The food we serve may not be to their taste."
"That's right!" Chen Dayou got off the slope.
Zhou Shi understood that Agui seemed to be on Master Chen’s side, but in fact he was giving advice to the shopkeeper. So he went on to say:
"What Agui said makes sense, so I plan to hire a chef from outside to be responsible for supplying the food at the dock. This chef doesn't need to be very skilled. He only needs to be nimble with his hands and feet and can swing a large spoon."
"Then who has the final say in the kitchen?" Chen Dayou asked.
Without the shopkeeper having to say anything, Agui quickly answered: "Of course it's you, Master Chen. The cook I found outside is not as good as you. I'm afraid I'll have to train you in the future. Right, shopkeeper?"
Zhou Shi nodded, thinking that this Agui is really too smart.
"Yes, I can rest assured that Master Chen is watching from the kitchen. What do you think, Master Chen?"
Chen Dayi shrugged and said: "Of course I listen to the shopkeeper. But if the new guy is careless and delays things, don't blame me."
"Okay, let's settle it now. Agui, you go out to look for someone tomorrow. It's best to find five or six of them, so that we can have a choice."
Agui agreed, and Zhao Qinfeng spoke again.
"Well, shopkeeper, you are hiring two more people. Once they are on the stove, the ingredients purchased every day will have to be doubled several times. How much will this cost?"
"No matter how much money we have, we have to spend it. This is a great opportunity for our Fengde Building to turn around. We cannot miss it."
"But... if something goes wrong, wouldn't all the money that was spent be wasted? Our Fengde Building has always been cautious about management. Isn't it too..." to expand the scale so much this time?
/p>
"You said it was just in case! Haven't you seen the result of our careful management? The slightest disturbance can kill us. How about you deal with it next time when the creditor comes to visit?"
Zhao Qinfeng did not dare to speak.
"What Lao Zhao said makes sense. Fengde Building cannot withstand a bigger blow. But this is not the reason for us to be complacent! This time we expand our operations, we must do a thorough job in every link. Agui, just start from the selection
Human control begins."
"I understand, it's the shopkeeper."
"Any more questions?"
Zhou Shi looked around and saw that Agui was calm and calm, Master Chen looked indifferent, and Zhao Qinfeng lowered his head and muttered something.
"Then it's settled. Everyone, whether you can save Fengde Tower from fire or water depends on this time."
After Zhou Shi finished explaining, the others went back to rest one after another.
He took a rag and cleaned up the counter, and was about to go back to find Mr. Mo to "make up lessons."
After all, he has just entered the underworld, and there are too many things to learn. His two previous experiences in Zhangjia and Yichunyuan made him know that this industry is full of dangers, and he must enrich his strength in all aspects.
"Phew - everything is difficult at the beginning, at least we have set the tone."
When leaving the front hall, Zhou Shi thought pessimistically: What if this is not the beginning?
……
It was night, and a team left the city from the north and headed straight for the suburbs.
There are about twenty people in this group. Except for the leader, they all wear the clothes of government officials and carry the lanterns of the government office.
They pulled four flatbed trucks covered with white cloth and followed a man in shabby clothes carrying a shovel.
After walking out of the city for about half an hour, the team stopped.
The leading man carried a shovel as tall as himself, walked around in a circle, stamped his feet, and said:
"That's it."
The shovel fell to the ground with a muffled sound.
He used the edge of the shovel to draw a pattern on the ground, picked up the wine gourd hanging on his body, took a sip, and sprayed it on the ground, mumbling something.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Then, he took out three more incense sticks, stuck them on the ground, and lit them one by one.
"Hey, why don't you take action yet? Let's just wait and see?" a yamen servant said dissatisfied.
The man said calmly: "You don't follow the rules anymore. Changes are going to happen soon, and I can't protect you."
The yamen servant muttered twice and stopped talking.
The three incense sticks were burned at the same time, and there was no abnormality.
The man shouted: "Put out the lanterns!"
In an instant, the surroundings returned to darkness.
The man raised the huge shovel high, held a breath in his chest, and slammed it to the ground!
When the government officials on the side saw this, they flinched reflexively, but the loud noise they imagined did not come. The shovel was inserted into the soil easily as if it had slipped into the water, and was half-in.
The man fisted his fist, grabbed the handle of the shovel, bent down, and exerted all his strength, and a huge piece of soil was lifted up by him!
Everyone exclaimed, not to mention how much strength this requires, even though the shovel is big, it is impossible to lift such a large piece of soil completely!
In just a few moments, a large square hole was dug out by the man.
"Okay, bring the person over here."
The government officials pulled the cart to the edge of the huge pit and lifted the white cloth on top, revealing the corpses stacked on the cart!
The man stuck the shovel into the ground and shouted:
"When fallen leaves return to their roots, those who see them are happy——"
After that, he stepped on the shovel and jumped to the ground.
"Sir, do you want that shovel?" After seeing his ability, the government servants were obviously much more polite.
"First remove the body, then remove the shovel. This is also the rule. You are busy, I will have a smoke."
The government officials worked in groups of two, one grabbing the arms and the other grabbing the legs, and "swung" the corpses into the pit, trying to arrange the corpses neatly without being squeezed.
"Come on, one, two, three..."
A government official was obviously tired and lost his grip, causing the corpse's arm to slip from his hand.
"Oops, sorry..."
He thought the upper body of the body would hit the ground, but it didn't.
Because the corpse's hand grabbed him.
