The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan

Chapter 79 Trivial
Kanto people.

After the business stabilized at 500,000, Mr. Xu had a smile on his face.

Business is good, the boss is happy, the boss is happy, the managers are happy, and the managers are happy, the employees are happy. This is a chain reaction.

How much wealth a person can have in a lifetime is related to blessings.When you use your ingenuity to create wealth, and at the same time use wealth to care for as many people as you have, you will have as much wealth.

Since the reform and opening up, a large number of private entrepreneurs have emerged. These people have continued to make their enterprises bigger and stronger, from small workshops at the beginning to large-scale factories and groups, and have made outstanding contributions to China's economic development.

These people, originally for their livelihood, in order to meet their own living needs.When enterprises reach a certain scale, they begin to assume social responsibilities, and the accumulation of wealth allows them to feed back the society. This is the social mission of private entrepreneurs.

Don't talk about the big ones.

A restaurant, a hair salon, and a beauty salon all have social responsibilities.

If a restaurant operates normally and employs [-] employees, then there are [-] families full of hope for life.If a hair salon employs three shampoo girls, there are three families who have hope for the hair salon and are full of confidence in life.

In the team of restaurant workers, we often see figures in their fifties, some of them are 60 years old. It is not difficult to find out that they are all forced by life.There are people in impoverished mountainous areas who earn less than 5000 yuan a year at home, and their sons in their thirties are hardly considered daughter-in-laws.Some families have sick people, and they have to go out to work because they sold their property short for medical treatment.

There are also some difficult families, the elder sister comes out to work to earn money for younger siblings to go to school, some younger sisters earn money to save gifts for older brothers, and some are desperate——
They want a stable job to support their families and keep their poor families afloat.

So as a boss, it is a crime not to pay employees wages.

Of course, the phenomenon of not paying wages is rare now. This is the progress of society and a kind of awareness of people's conscience.

Zhou Xiaomei and Wang Gang went back to their hometown to get married, and now Zhang Li and Hu Jing are left at the front desk.

Hu Jing has also grown up, although not as strong as Zhou Xiaomei, but it is almost the same.Zhou Xiaomei can still work for five months after getting married, and then she has to have a baby. Zhang Li plans to let Hu Jing take Zhou Xiaomei's place.

There is still one month of Spring Festival, and the annual employment shortage is coming. Zhang Li is checking the situation of employees going home for the Spring Festival in these two days.

Still the same as last year, a group of people will go home before the year, and a group of people will go home after the year. Everyone will work in shifts and rest to ensure sufficient staff during the Spring Festival.As for the overtime pay during the Spring Festival, I didn't discuss it with Mr. Xu. With the experience of last year, I don't want to make trouble this year.

The New Year's Eve dinner is fully booked for the [-]th day, and a lot has been booked from the first day to the eighth day of the new year, which is busier than last year.

Hu Jing came down from the second floor and walked up to Zhang Li and said: "Sister Zhang, the aunt who washes the small items on the second floor said that she came home for the New Year, and her son came back from the army. Haven't seen each other for two years."

"Didn't you say how many days you'll be back?" Zhang Li asked.

"Go at 29, come back on the fourth day of the lunar new year." Hu Jing replied.

"Oh, it just so happened that a few vacation workers came over in the past two days, and one vacation worker said that her mother would also come, and she would ask her mother to do the laundry." Zhang Li said.

"Well, by the way, when will Zhou Xiaomei and the others come back?" Hu Jing asked.

Zhang Li said: "Come back on the [-]rd and say it will be done at night."

"How much money do we have?" Hu Jing asked.

"One thousand, I can't afford less." Zhang Li said.

"Hey, there is a lot of gift money this year." Hu Jing sighed.

Zhang Li smiled and said to her: "You two are not good enough, you are four thousand a month, he is six thousand, and you don't need to worry about the children. Have a good time."

Hu Jing smiled helplessly, and said, "Hey, it may not be too long, and I don't even think about it."

As soon as Zhang Li heard that there was something to be said, she asked with concern: "What's the matter? Are you angry?"

"I'll have a drink with you at night to make trouble." Hu Jing was a little listless.

Zhang Li has been in Kanto for two years, and her relationship with Hu Jing is neither good nor bad, it is a colleague.

Here we give a brief introduction to Hu Jing.I have been working with Mr. Xu all the time, and I have won the trust of Mr. Xu. In a certain way, I can be regarded as a confidant.Introverted personality, usually not very talkative, belongs to the kind of person who works in obscurity.Of course, it is reasonable to do small reports sometimes.

When Li Shuang was working here, Zhang Li would discuss everything with Zhou Xiaomei and Li Shuang, but rarely consulted her, and it was also related to her reporting.

Her husband is a cook. He used to work in Mr. Xu's restaurant. Later, he felt that he didn't earn enough money and went out to hire a kitchen. He did a good job and paid 6000 yuan a month.

There are two types of people who don't like to talk, one is really not like to talk, and they don't know what to say, like Fang Jianjun;Hu Jing belongs to the latter.

She knew that she was not capable enough, and she was inferior to Zhang Li, Li Shuang, and Zhou Xiaomei, so she could only make up for it with dedication, and at the same time be a good confidant to Mr. Xu.Bosses like to listen to reports, especially those that they can't grasp. For example, which manager has an opinion on him, speaks ill of him, or forms a gang ---
It was Hu Jing who reported the matter of drinking with the guests when Lao Tan was there. Of course, he had to add oil and vinegar when reporting, otherwise the effect would not be achieved, and the boss would not like to hear it.

How should I put it, wise bosses seldom listen to such reports, and misjudgments are prone to occur, and talents are often lost.

Having said that, Hu Jing is generally a good person, everyone knows what she looks like, so they don't care, the worst thing is to pay attention when talking, especially when she is in front of her.To say that she is second to none in terms of responsibility and dedication to work, no one can match her, and her loyalty is absolutely fine.

Without exception, such women are a little inflexible, deadly, and in civilized terms they are paranoid.

I have developed a habit of dedication at work, but when I get home, I feel a bit dogmatic and less interesting.So my husband had an affair outside, but I didn't find out at first, and it was too late when I found out.Before she got angry, her husband filed for divorce first, and the reason given was that she couldn't get his wife's tenderness.

It's a bit like Lao Tan and Lin Yan, except that Lao Tan and Lin Yan didn't get divorced, and they lived with respect as guests.

My husband didn't come home or call back for three consecutive days, so I was very upset and wanted to talk to someone.

Zhang Li knew a little about her affairs. The couple had a quarrel in the first half of the year in May. Later, when they heard that it was over, they didn't care much.Seeing her like this today, she probably started to make trouble again. Not only did she mutter in her heart: I have nothing to do, I can’t live a good life and play with divorce. I’m envious. .

In the kitchen, Li Xu was frying the sauce of chopped pepper fish head.

The fish head sauce was improved when Lao Tan was there. The previous one was too salty and had a strong garlic flavor.When serving the stir-fried yellow beef, Lao Tan added chopped peppers from the original place on the couch, added red peppers from the Northeast, and re-made the sauce.The prepared fish head sauce is more suitable for the taste of Northeast people, and the fish head with chopped pepper sells much better than before.

Now boiled pork slices and Maoxuewang are selling very well.Li Zhongqing made a bucket of spicy red soup in advance, and came to Li Xu after making it.

"Li Xu, I will go back for the Chinese New Year this year." Li Zhongqing said.

"What do you do when you go back to the restaurant?" Li Xu asked with a half-joking smile.

"What's the matter? I'm not in the restaurant and I'm still pornographic? I'm not alone, Lao Li. I haven't been home for the New Year in three years." Li Zhongqing said.

Li Xu turned down the fire and said, "I haven't been back for three years." He smiled wryly and continued, "When Wang Gang comes back from his marriage, tell him that I can't decide this matter."

"Aren't you the chef now?"

"Don't blame me, you don't know what it is, I'm just a famous chef, I'm not worth it, and it's still up to others to go home for the New Year."

Li Zhongqing glanced at Li Xu, knowing that it was useless to tell him, so he said fiercely: "You, you might as well die."

The two are old partners, and they don't care about talking too much. Li Xu didn't say anything, and continued to fry the chili sauce.

"Wang has to do it as soon as he comes back. How much do you plan to pay?" Li Zhongqing asked.

"I'll go with the crowd, I'll take as much as you have." Li Xu said.

Li Zhongqing thought for a while and said: "I have nothing against him, just three hundred, his disciples are all five hundred."

Li Xu said: "It's a little less than three hundred for me, but after working together for eight or nine years, I got five hundred."

"You're different from me. You get five hundred. Besides, aren't you the head chef?"

Li Zhongqing left with a smile after speaking.

Working in a big kitchen for a year also pays a lot of money.Those who get married, have children, move house, celebrate birthdays all have to spend money.Especially birthdays, once a year, everyone celebrates it, and it has become a trend. If you don’t participate, I’m sorry, but if you participate, there are too many, and you can’t afford it.

The younger brothers usually give a hundred for their birthdays, and they don't go.Master celebrates his 1000th birthday, let's take part.If there are people who get married, have children, and two more birthdays in one month, the small [-] yuan will be gone.

But I can't help but follow, it's a matter of human relationship, when I have something to do, people will come over, it's a reason.

Li Xu came down from the stove after frying the chopped chili sauce, and the two younger brothers in the kitchen started to do something for some reason, one of them was a little unnatural, and took a kitchen knife to chop the other party, so everyone went up and pulled away.

Li Xu got a little angry, went up and kicked the younger brother who was holding the kitchen knife, the younger brother was a little dissatisfied, and looked at him angrily, as if he was about to hit someone.

"Why, you still want to hit someone?" Li Xuli said in a loud voice, which startled the people next to him.

The younger brother lowered his head in fear.

Seeing that there is nothing wrong, everyone will leave, and they should do whatever they want.

When Li Xu got off work at noon, he heard from the staff that the boy with the kitchen knife had poured a bucket of oil into the sewer. He was so angry that he went to the dormitory to find the boy.

Hey, kids now.
