Don’t Be a Scumbag - Chapter 105
◎The husband of a weak wife◎
Zhou Liquan is the boss of the nearby Zhouda Wood Industry. Now there are very few people in the company. He is the first batch of people who eat crabs. He was doing well, but he has encountered problems recently.
The problem is that the cost of wood is getting higher and higher. He wants to increase the price, but the owner of the manufacturer is pressing the price to prevent him from increasing it.
The selling price is the same, the purchase price has risen, and Zhou Liquan has been losing money this month. It’s acceptable to lose a day, but the longer you wait, the more.
Even a rich and powerful boss like Zhou couldn’t stand it.
The family persuaded him to give up the lumber factory and agreed to the proposal of the manufacturer’s owner to buy it, so that he could make a lot of money. It is really impossible to change to another business, maybe it will be more prosperous than this.
But this company is just like his own children. Zhou Liquan watched his company grow up, how could he be willing to sell children?
He is now looking for relationships everywhere, and wants to find a new partner. Emperor Tian pays his hard work. He thought it would be difficult to find, but he did not expect to find it in less than half a month.
Boss Zhou is a shrewd person, and he deliberately inquired about people’s preferences.
After all, if it is in line with the other party’s mind, can this business be done all at once?
It is said that the owner of the manufacturer has no other hobbies, except that he likes to eat. As long as he eats well, he can talk about everything.
And he also found out that the boss will come to their city this Sunday.
For this reason, Boss Zhou deliberately inquired about restaurants everywhere, but to his disappointment, there are no good restaurants at all, like some famous big hotels.
As for those characteristic snack places, either they look too shabby, or they are just too shabby. The taste is okay, but when you go in, it’s either flies or hair, and you can’t speak at all.
Boss Zhou’s hair is bald day by day, and he asks everywhere for some tall, clean and delicious food pipes. The price doesn’t matter, the key is to be delicious and clean.
Boss Zhou asked people everywhere, and finally a friend told him: “I just found out that a new restaurant has opened in a place. The dishes in it are too expensive, and the price is scary, but the decoration is the best I have ever seen.”
Thinking of the renovation, my friends felt that it was better than their city hotel.
Boss Zhou was a little unconvinced and asked suspiciously, “Is it better than the decoration of the City Hotel?”
The man nodded firmly: “Really, it’s better than that.” It can even be said that it is better.
It was already Saturday night when Boss Zhou asked. He was going to invite people to dinner and talk about business. Because he couldn’t find a place, he decided to take a gamble and went to the restaurant mentioned by his friend.
After Boss Zhou made the decision, he immediately went to book a table. When booking a table, he happened to see Wang Lijuan settle the bill at the front desk.
A restaurant is not like a store. Things can be stored for a long time, but it doesn’t last for a long time. If you don’t use them that day, some things will have to be thrown away the next day. If you can’t sell things in winter, you will burn money.
Wang Lijuan felt more and more distressed, and just as she was distressed, she saw someone coming in at the door.
Before she could speak, the well-dressed middle-aged man said, “Hello, I want to book a table in advance.”
“Ah, oh oh, sir, what time do you want to eat, how many of you?”
The first opening made Wang Lijuan a little rushed, but she quickly reacted and hurriedly asked all the questions she should ask.
Boss Zhou looked at the neat and tidy proprietress, and for a while he was relieved to the restaurant.
The proprietress was still oily, her nails were gray, and her hair was greasy. He must have doubts about the hygiene of the store, but now that the proprietress was clean, he was not so worried.
He said, “Come for dinner at six tomorrow night, six.”
I heard that the other party also brought people from the company, and I also have to share the drinking on my side, so Boss Zhou did the math, there are a total of six people.
So he told the proprietress that there were six people.
After listening to Wang Lijuan, she nodded her head to show her understanding, and then asked what do you need to eat?
She introduced their dishes in detail, including which ones are delicious and which are suitable for people of all ages.
Boss Zhou originally wanted to wait until the time to order, but he didn’t expect the lady boss to say: “It’s like this, the dishes in our house are troublesome to prepare, and some of the dishes need to be prepared in advance for the guests. It can be eaten faster, so it is best for you, sir, to prepare in advance. point.”
Wang Lijuan has practiced these words countless times in her heart. She was worried that she would stutter because of nervousness and didn’t think that when she was about to say it, not only did she not get stuck, but she spoke very smoothly.
After hearing what the boss said, Boss Zhou thought that what the boss said made sense, so he decided to choose a few dishes. He was not short of money, and directly picked the specialties in the store.
After ordering, he was about to leave, but he was stopped by the proprietress again.
“What’s the matter, is there anything else?” Boss Zhou didn’t understand why the lady boss stopped him.
Wang Lijuan looked at Boss Zhou and said, “We have to pay the deposit in advance because the dishes are expensive.”
This is what Pei Ming came up with. In order to make a table for someone, but they don’t come, this will not only occupy the quota, but also cause loss of materials. In order to reduce the loss, he decided to collect a deposit.
Boss Zhou is not bad for this amount of money, and it’s not that he hasn’t heard about the deposit collection. After all, he has traveled all over the world for so many years, and he has been to many good restaurants.
Because of Wang Lijuan’s words, Boss Zhou’s impression of Shangshi Court was much better. He felt that such a restaurant was clean and formal, so it wouldn’t be too bad.
Boss Zhou thought about it, he returned and paid the deposit again before leaving.
Because it was the first time it opened, Wang Lijuan prepared it early. The other dishes are okay to say, the most troublesome is Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, which is also the most expensive one.
Wang Lijuan did everything else by herself. When she was doing Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, she called the elder sister who helped the cook to help.
The eldest sister who helped cook in the morning couldn’t close her mouth when she saw so many ingredients.
“It’s so much good stuff, it’s so expensive,” she said.
The dishes in Shangshi Pavilion are clearly priced. Buddha Jumps over the Wall is the most expensive, and a bowl costs 18 yuan.
Wang Lijuan didn’t hide it and said it directly. After speaking, everyone felt that this thing was expensive. Now the average salary of the city people is 20 to 30, and this bowl is 18, which is considered by the eldest sister. It’s a money grab.
But thinking that Wang Lijuan is the boss, she still didn’t dare to say these words.
Wang Lijuan used 18 kinds of ingredients in this Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, including pigeon eggs and so on. The dried sea cucumber and dried abalone are also prepared, and the ham is also prepared in advance.
Because the sea cucumber and abalone need to be soaked 24 hours in advance, and the water needs to be changed every few hours in the middle, Wang Lijuan brought the dried sea cucumber and abalone home in the evening, and brought it back in the morning. water.
The dried abalone and sea cucumber were soaked, so she hurriedly went out to buy hoof flowers, and the tendons had to be bought at the morning market to be fresh.
In addition to the tendons, you also need keel, chicken feet, pig hands, chickens and ducks. Put them all in the water and copy them, put **** and garlic in the middle to remove the fishy smell, and then start to take them out and wash them after the fishy smell is removed.
Wang Lijuan has done it a few times at home, and everything at home was successful, so she didn’t worry about it this time, not only did she not worry that Wang Lijuan’s fingertips were smooth, but the elder sister who was watching was stunned, saying that it was just for the emperor. No wonder it’s so expensive.
After all the washing is done, put it back into the pot with the ham to make the broth.
Wang Lijuan calculated the time, and when the time was up, she fished out all the meat and set it aside, leaving only the slightly yellowed, fragrant soup. Extraordinary.
As soon as the soup came out, the whole back kitchen could smell the aroma, the little girl standing at the cashier at the front desk sniffed, and the guy cleaning in the private room couldn’t help but naturally said to himself, “What is this, it smells so good. “
The cooking sister could smell it more clearly because she was standing close. Looking at the soup, she couldn’t help but wonder what it would taste like to drink, whether it was fresh and fragrant. Makes people drink it and can’t stop drinking it.
Of course, the chef is a measured lady. She didn’t mention what to drink. After all, it is for the guests. How can they taste it?
So even if the chef-helping sister wants to drink again, she just thinks about it in her heart.
Although, the kitchen eldest sister still doesn’t understand why Wang Lijuan wants to make soup.
Wang Lijuan said: “This soup is a good thing.”
After the soup was prepared, Wang Lijuan began to clean other ingredients. The sea cucumbers needed to be cleaned, the pigeon eggs had to be peeled, and the prawns had to be prepared in advance. This was all meticulous work. do it yourself.
As for the chef, she was arranged to steam the pumpkin and green beans.
Mung bean is used to make jade bean cake, and jade bean cake is easy to make, so Wang Lijuan did not make it the day before, but made it today.
As for pumpkin, this is because the soup of Buddha Jumps over the Wall is not colorful enough, so Wang Lijuan uses pumpkin to add color.
After finally getting things done, it was already five o’clock.
There was still an hour left before the guests came, and the other dishes were already ready, and it was time to put the pot, and Buddha Jumped the Wall was also checked and placed in the pot.
At six o’clock, Boss Zhou came with his partner. Boss Zhou’s partner’s surname is Yang, and as soon as Boss Yang entered Shangshi Pavilion, he began to compliment him.
He has been to so many restaurants, and none of them have the high-end decoration of this hotel. It is not high-end, but it is very tasteful. Now it is popular with foreign styles. Even if you don’t say it, you will feel vulgar in your heart.
But Shangshi Pavilion is different. Shangshi Pavilion adopts retro decoration, which is not so obvious, but it has charm everywhere.
Elegance is not monotonous.
The three characters of Shangshi Pavilion are even more powerful and imposing. At first glance, it is not something that ordinary people can write.
Boss Yang knows a little bit about this. He looks at the words above and knows that the person who wrote it must not be an ordinary person, maybe some calligraphy master who is hidden in the city.
