Chapter 409: A Novel Hotel Model

Manager Liu was taken back to the bureau by Zhou Zhengan and others for investigation. This kind of thing is very bad, especially with so many onlookers present. If there is no explanation for this matter, it will be difficult to calm the public anger.

Xia Zhi took Zhao Yuemei away directly.

Zhao Yuemei followed Xia Zhi nervously and said.

"Comrade, why did you invite me? My roast duck skills are not the best in Shangjing City.

In fact, many places don't sell roast duck. Except for these few special stores, roast duck is expensive and ordinary people can't afford it.

And I only know how to make roast duck, and I don't know anything else. Otherwise, I wouldn't be demoted from a roast duck chef to a dishwasher. I won't leave."

It's not that she didn't find a job outside. Who would be willing to change from a cook to a dishwasher?

But there are only two stores selling roast duck outside. They have fixed cooks, so they naturally won't use me.

Those other restaurants and canteens want cooks who can cook.

I really can't do anything else except roast duck.

This is the real reason why she lost her job. I have never heard of a cook losing his job. It is because she can only do one thing.

"Master Zhao, I actually asked someone about you in advance. I came to invite you.

I know that your Zhao family has more than one cook. In addition to you who can make roast duck, there are also people who can cook and make all kinds of pastries."

"It is true that I opened a restaurant and I want to hire a chef."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yuemei's eyes were full of tears, and she couldn't help but say with some annoyance.

"Comrade, it seems that you have really inquired about our family situation, but our family is really good at cooking. My brother has been ill recently, and the illness is quite serious."

Zhao Yuemei is not good at lying. People can find out about her brother's situation.

"What's the problem with being ill? We can just treat the illness. Don't worry. Since I sincerely invite you, I will pay for your brother's medical treatment, but the only requirement is that your brother must come to work in my restaurant after he recovers."

Zhao Yuemei heard this.

She grabbed Xia Zhi's hand tightly, and this time she really knelt down. Xia Zhi hurriedly pulled her up.

"What are you doing? If you have something to say, just talk nicely. Why do you kneel down all the time?"

"Comrade Xia, you are really the lifesaver of our family. I really want to thank you."

"If you really want to thank me, you don't have to say anything. There are still many people missing in the kitchen, and there are also a few young cooks who need you to lead.

As long as you make the kitchen well for me, it will be the greatest reward for me."

Xia Zhi dared to say this, naturally because of the character of the old Zhao family. She knew it too well in her previous life.

This family are all kind and honest people.

It is because this family knows how to repay kindness and is kind-hearted that they have come to this dead end. Otherwise, I have never heard of the hard life of the cook.

When I met Lao Zhao in my previous life, their family's life was not as hard as it is today.

But Lao Zhao was desperate at that time. After meeting me, he followed me diligently for his whole life to repay my kindness. Many people paid a high price but failed to poach him.

He also helped me research many dishes and trained many apprentices.

Lao Zhao later gained both fame and fortune. He was already the most famous national chef in the country.

But he never moved except working in his own restaurant.

He did not rely on his apprentices to show off to Xia Zhi.

He was a real grateful person. In this life, she met the Zhao family worse than in her previous life.

With the character and mentality of the people in the Zhao family, they would definitely repay their kindness.

It was also complete. The friendship between their two lives was in it.

When Zhao Yuemei rushed to the hospital to see Lao Zhao, Xia Zhi was a little moved. She really did not expect Lao Zhao to be so miserable when he was young. Now he was as thin as a bamboo pole.

Fortunately, she arrived. If she hadn't arrived, Lao Zhao would have to be discharged from the hospital.

Lao Zhao's surgery was arranged. Not only was the surgery arranged, but the best experts in the hospital were also invited.

With the ability of the Gu family, it was only a matter of a phone call to provide Lao Zhao with the best medical resources.

Xia Zhi returned to the hotel and began to train the staff.

To be precise, there is no qualified manager candidate at present.

He could only train himself.

And the training course was naturally customized by himself.

The 20 girls were still standing in front of Xia Zhi a little timidly as when they first arrived.

Mainly because they didn't know what they should do.

Xia Zhi distributed the menus and training rules and regulations to everyone.

All training must be based on a standard, and this system is a bottom line for everyone to make mistakes.

All real restaurants and hotels have their own systems and standards.

The first class was theoretical training.

Fortunately, when she was selecting, she had already selected people who could read, which obviously reduced the difficulty in understanding.

In fact, all theoretical knowledge, including the etiquette of serving plates, various drinks, trays, and standing there, and the politeness that should be shown when dealing with each guest, are easy to train.

The only thing that is difficult to train is people’s concepts.

Fortunately, the people Xiazhi brought came from small villages, and they are very remote. They have no idea about the outside world.

They don’t know how all the canteens and restaurants should operate.

It was like a blank piece of paper. Whatever Xia Zhi wrote or drew on it would determine the consequences.

And they were obviously very receptive.

Lao Zhao had the operation and would be discharged in about half a month. If he wanted to recover completely, it would take at least three months.

Their restaurant and guesthouse were also about to open at the same time, and they were faced with the need to determine the list of chefs in the restaurant.

In this matter, Zhao Yuemei naturally provided the greatest help to Xia Zhi.

It was easy to find a few chefs from their old Zhao family, as the old Zhao family had been passed down for a hundred years.

Cooking was basically a compulsory course for every generation. Whether you would be a chef in the future or not, you had to learn it.

There were five brothers and sisters in Zhao Yuemei's generation alone, and all five of them were decent in both character and cooking.

Xia Zhi trusted Zhao Yuemei and directly handed the kitchen matter to Zhao Yuemei. Although Zhao Yuemei could only roast duck, her comprehensive kitchen ability was obviously stronger than Xia Zhi's.

Three days before the opening, Zhao Yuemei had already decided on all the chefs for the kitchen. The restaurant here was changed according to its original nature. One part was used for banquets.

The other part was various small stir-fries to meet the needs of the surrounding people and employees.

Their restaurant no longer had big pot dishes, which meant that the canteen would be all window-service in the future, and you could order whatever you wanted.

Xia Zhi changed this big pot dish to a self-service ordering system.

There were more than 20 kinds of cold dishes and hot dishes, including staple foods and soups. Just bring the plate and order a small portion of any dish you wanted, and then go to the end to pay directly.

This not only saves manpower, but also is a particularly novel model.

Many people come to the canteen to order at most one or two dishes, but now the amount of each dish is very small and the price is very cheap.

In total, one person may eat four dishes.

But it won't waste a lot of money. (End of this chapter)
