Her Kindergarten is Full of Villainous Students - Chapter 251
The Starry Sky Restaurant had barely been advertised on the internet.0
It was also located in the new district.0
The restaurant’s renovation alone cost two to three million.0
There were over 200 tables spread across multiple floors.0
Besides Jiang Xun as the head chef, there were also several pastry chefs.0
The kitchen assistants were all highly skilled as well.0
After all, with Liu Chef and Chef Chen around, their connections in the culinary world were quite extensive.0
Moreover, Starry Sky had previously produced a cooking competition show, which allowed them to recruit a batch of promising talents.0
Now was the perfect time to utilize them in the restaurant.0
The Starry Sky Restaurant offered salaries about 20% higher than the industry standard.0
The opening of this restaurant was cause for great celebration among Starry Sky’s fan base.0
People had been craving Starry Sky’s cuisine for quite some time.0
Previously, those who wanted to taste it could only visit a pop-up store.0
But getting a reservation at the pop-up store was incredibly difficult.0
Except for a few quick-fingered individuals who managed to snag a spot at the beginning,0
Later on, it was purely a matter of luck.0
Trying to compete with 100,000 to 200,000 people for just 400 to 500 tickets was extremely challenging.0
Fans had been eagerly anticipating the day when Starry Sky Kindergarten would open a restaurant.0
Now, it had finally happened.0
Shen Wei was brimming with confidence on her end.0
But Liu Chef couldn’t sleep.0
He treated Starry Sky Kindergarten as if it were his own home.0
The more significant the event, the more nervous he became.0
He had barely slept at all.0
After tossing and turning for a while,0
Hearing his wife’s steady breathing beside him, he turned on the light and checked his phone – it was 3 AM.0
He quietly got up.0
He only turned on the lights once he reached the living room, then checked his phone again. Sure enough, Zhang Daming, the school bus driver, was already waiting outside.0
They had previously arranged for Zhang Daming to take him to the slaughterhouse on the outskirts of the city between 3 and 4 AM.0
He wanted to watch the pig slaughter and bring back the pig’s blood and offal.0
After getting dressed, Liu Chef went downstairs. As expected, Zhang Daming was waiting at the entrance of the alley.0
Liu Chef felt a bit embarrassed: “I’m really sorry for disturbing your rest.”0
Zhang Daming replied, “It’s no problem.” Driving was part of his job, after all.0
They then got into the car. Driver Zhang Daming steadily drove out of the city center. There were hardly any cars on the road in the early morning, making for a pleasant drive.0
Liu Chef mentioned that he hadn’t slept all night due to nervousness.0
Strangely enough, as the former head chef of Jiangbei Restaurant,0
He had catered for all sorts of grand banquets before.0
He had never felt this nervous then, but now, he couldn’t even understand why he was so anxious.0
Zhang Daming commented from the side, “No need to be nervous, many people have been looking forward to Starry Sky Kindergarten opening a restaurant.”0
While that was true, nervousness was something beyond control.0
Liu Chef was the most familiar with what had happened in Zhang Daming’s family. He said to Zhang Daming, “I have some money on hand now. Do you need any? If you do, just say the word, don’t be shy.”0
Zhang Daming replied, “No need.” At the mention of money, his heart was filled with gratitude.0
He used to be a driver within the system.0
Although his driving skills were universally praised within the entire system,0
His salary wasn’t high.0
He only earned a few thousand yuan per month.0
He had thought he would work within the system for his entire life and then retire.0
Planning to go fishing with other old men after retirement.0
He never expected that while he had always been honest and straightforward, his son would be so reckless.0
His son had accumulated a huge amount of online debt, which couldn’t be repaid even after selling their house.0
Coming to work at Starry Sky Kindergarten was a big gamble for him.0
The salary here was very high, 20,000 yuan per month plus a 100,000 yuan buyout from Xiao Xiang, and he had also sold two enrollment spots for 80,000.0
His wife also worked here as a cleaner, earning five to six thousand a month.0
The couple worked together for a while and finally managed to pay off all their debts.0
After paying off the debts, their hearts felt lighter.
0
They even started smiling more.0
Zhang Daming said, “We’ve paid off all the debts, I’m really grateful to you!”0
It was Liu Chef who knew about his difficulties and helped him sell the enrollment spots.0
Although Starry Sky Kindergarten’s enrollment spots were valuable,0
He really didn’t know how to handle the transaction.0
The buyer was introduced by Liu Chef, and the payment was made very quickly.0
It was thanks to this that they were able to pay off the online loans.0
Zhang Daming said, “I’ve enrolled my child in the next term, but this time he won’t be boarding. We chose day school to prevent him from falling back into old habits!”0
Liu Chef said, “You’re all hardworking people. Your future days will be good.”0
At the mention of this, Zhang Daming became quite happy.0
He and his wife were both frugal people, eating all their meals at Starry Sky Kindergarten.0
This allowed them to save quite a bit.0
They only spent about 1,000 yuan a month, and could save the rest.0
Although they didn’t have much money now,0
With the salary from Starry Sky Kindergarten, it wouldn’t be long before they would have some savings.0
The two chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the slaughterhouse.0
The place was brightly lit.0
When Liu Chef went in, he was surprised to find Chef Chen there too.0
One look at Chef Chen’s dark eye circles told him that, like himself, Chef Chen hadn’t slept well all night.0
This senior apprentice brother of his, who usually acted so cool, was actually just like him.0
Neither could laugh at the other.0
They waited for the pig slaughter at the slaughterhouse.0
Two 800-pound pigs were slaughtered, and the blood was quickly collected in buckets.0
Then the pork was swiftly butchered.0
The snow-white fat, when cut, still steamed.0
It was clearly genuine farm-raised pork.0
The aroma of the meat was incredible.0
Big pigs were indeed different.0
Just two pigs, once butchered, looked like a mountain of meat.0
They kept the pig’s blood and all the offal.0
There was a high-pressure water gun here, which directly cleaned out the dirt from the intestines, much more convenient than doing it by hand.0
A small truck directly transported everything to the restaurant.0
Chef Chen also inquired about the situation at the pig farm.0
After all, the pig farm belonged to his relatives.0
The pig farm staff, upon seeing Chef Chen, spoke enthusiastically: “We don’t know where these pigs came from. They’re so easy to raise. They hardly ever get sick. They get fatter day by day. In all my years of raising pigs, I’ve never seen such good ones.”0
Now there were over 500 pigs on the farm.0
Many were piglets born after breeding.0
The only annoying thing was that they ate too much.0
Pure farm-raised pigs were fed well, but it was expensive.0
However, the quality of the pigs was undeniable. Several people from the slaughterhouse had come multiple times, offering high prices to buy the pigs.0
But they hadn’t been willing to sell.0
The pig farm staff repeatedly told Chef Chen: “Now that you’ve opened a restaurant, bring back the kitchen waste. I’ve already arranged with five restaurants for their kitchen waste.”0
Mixing this with the feed not only helped the pigs grow well but also saved some money.0
Moreover, the kitchen waste from restaurants now contained oil, which made it easier for the pigs to fatten up.0
Chef Chen said, “That’s no problem.”0
Then the pork and pig’s blood were loaded onto the truck.0
Chef Chen got into Zhang Daming’s car.0
When asked,0
Chef Chen said he hadn’t slept last night.0
He had come by ride-hailing service.0
He even had to pay extra in the middle of the night.0
Zhang Daming said, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I could have picked you up!”0
Chef Chen replied, “I didn’t want to trouble you.”0
These chefs, when they saw good meat, couldn’t take their eyes off it.0
In the car, he excitedly gesticulated: “Did you see that fat? It was three fingers thick. If you make braised pork with that, it would intoxicate people with its aroma!”0
People were still reminiscing about it after eating it just once.0
