Chapter 116: Opening
Nearly two months of busyness. Pan Qing, Chen Wenzheng, and Chen Qiuniang got up early and were greedy for darkness, and they were half tired to death. Mrs. Chen, Xiaoqing, and Mrs. Wang did their best to do a good job in logistics support, and they simply didn't have much free time.
In the past two months, Chen Wenzheng has received many people who want to come to cooperate, and chose the most advantageous one. Panqing is mainly responsible for the collection of decoration materials and the maintenance of job fairs. What Chen Qiuniang has done is to improve the formulation of various systems such as menu selection and pricing, employee responsibility system, and welfare system of Yunlai Inn. During this period, the only thing she showed up was the closed training for the first batch of selected employees.
Finally, when the height of summer came, Chen Wenzheng found a feng shui gentleman to see an auspicious day for the opening of the zodiac. On this day, although it is not a market day, Yunlai Inn has been famous for more than a month, so Liuhe Town on this day is comparable to a market day.
On this day, there was a crowd of people, all wanting to know what the scene was like behind the curtain raised by the Yunlai Inn.
Before the curtain, there were waitresses in blue clothes and red skirts, with neat hair in buns, standing on both sides, holding red silk flowers and scissors.
"What's going on?" There was a lot of talk.
However, the two waitresses, trained in hermeticism, stood like statues, standing straight and looking straight ahead.
Finally, when the time came, Panqing came from the side door in a navy blue straight jacket, and two male waiters in gray cloth shirts and square hats came out with him.
The three of them walked together under the big ginkgo tree in front of the Yunlai Inn. Pan cleared his throat and shouted, "Open-curtain-"
With the sound of the "opening" of the nine-song loop, the two little guys pulled down the curtain, revealing a brand-new Yunlai Hotel. The entrance to the original Yunlai Inn is the lobby, and the lobby is near the stairs and the kitchen door is a high black wood counter.
Today, the door of Yunlai Inn is still there, but it has a new door, not with a strong smell of black lacquer, but with utensils to polish and smooth, with a layer of transparent wax. Of course, this is also what Chen Qiuniang said inadvertently when she played against Wu Lao. Wu Lao was worried at that time that this was not as long as the black paint would be retained.
Chen Qiuniang chuckled and said: "For a service industry like inns, cleanliness is the last word. The people at the inn will love it this way, regardless of how long it will be used. After all, when the door is open to do business, especially this kind of business that ushers in the delivery, all kinds of façade equipment must always be new. ”
Wu Lao was silent for a long time before he asked his eldest apprentice to take a few people up the mountain to look for the plant juice that might extract the kind of lacquer that Chen Qiuniang said. Wu Lao's disciples were indeed capable people, and within a few days, they found a kind of tree sap and brushed it on the finished utensils, which kept the wood as it was, with a delicate texture but smooth, making people look clean and concise.
Today, the doors, windows, tables and chairs of Yunlai Inn are all in this original wood tone. And the tables and chairs are no longer the big square tables of the past, with eight seats. Rather, it is a rectangular table with four seats and compact seating.
As for the counter, it is also placed in the area facing the street, and a window can be opened. Guests can face the shopkeeper directly from just outside the inn. And the wooden sign next to the counter is the place where the Yunlai Inn menu is hung. This menu will inform guests of all the dishes of Yunlai Inn today. On another small wooden board next to it is the name of today's special.
Across the wall from the counter is the kitchen. People are surprised to find that chefs, who have never been afraid of being stolen, are busy in this kitchen. The kitchen, which had been hidden from the past, was moved to the street. The kitchen is divided into two rooms, and the outer room is three waiters, all dressed in uniform and smart.
The three waiters were looking after the five cauldrons in front of them. These five pots are iron cauldrons in the shape of a tripod, and below them are small stoves made of clay, which are protected with charcoal fires to keep the dishes hot at all times. In the kitchen, you can vaguely see the chefs and helpers busy. The process of washing, chopping, and stir-frying can be said to be almost public.
"This, this Yunlai Inn is bold enough. Aren't you afraid of being stolen? "Some people can't help but be shocked when they see such a pattern.
"What are you afraid of. If people don't have two hits, how dare they open an inn? Besides, I heard that Shopkeeper Chen and his cousin Jiang Gongzi are strange people. Don't look at the young age of Jiang Gongzi, but the Wang family and Wu Lao admire him very much. "There seemed to be knowledgeable people in the crowd, just talking to the people around them.
"But what's over there?" After looking at the brand-new Yunlai Inn in front of them, some people couldn't help but look next door to the Yunlai Inn again, which used to be idle shops.
Everyone looked over. The decoration over there is more solemn and atmospheric, and the windows on the second floor are carved and ingenious. There is also a gold lacquer plaque over there, which reads: The Feast of the Wealthy.
"A feast for the rich?" Some people are puzzled.
"It is said that it is also the property of Yunlai Inn. Opened at the same time. It is said that it is a place where dignitaries and dignitaries go, and it also undertakes luxury banquet side dishes. Someone answered the crowd's questions.
"Although this Liuhe town is not small, it is not in Chengdu Mansion for such a big façade. Can there be a business? "Some people aren't optimistic about that.
"How much can you know about rich people?" Someone retorted.
"Rich people? In people's kitchens, they are responsible for cutting shredded green onions. "Someone immediately looked for evidence to attack Yunlai Hotel.
Chen Qiuniang put on a simple makeup, and was in the crowd, listening to the crowd's discussions. In fact, she didn't know the risks. But to be honest, the basic industry that supports Yunlai Inn belongs to the side of the common people, and as for the "feast of the wealthy", it must be done. One is for Chen Wenzheng's career, after all, he has always wanted to serve the imperial court; The second is to set a lofty tone for Yunlai Hotel at the beginning.
"Today, Yunlai Hotel officially opened, and I hope that all the neighbors will cheer you on. Now we invite the treasurer and shareholders to hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Pan Qinglang said.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Wenzheng walked out of the gate, dressed in a burgundy straight jacket, with a square scarf tied up his hair, and combed meticulously. He was also followed by seven shareholder representatives, including Wu Lao, Wang Dajia, and Liu Shopkeeper of Mipu. When these shareholders stopped there, they were all well-known figures, and of course, one of these well-known figures surprised everyone was the commander of the Zhang Mansion.
"He's on behalf of Zhang's house." Chen Qiuniang heard someone whisper.
"yes. It is said that his words and deeds are based on Zhang's house. Could it be that Zhang Fu is also the majority shareholder of Yunlai Hotel? Ah, this Chen Wenzheng is really amazing. It's even more powerful than him. Someone crowded into the crowd and exclaimed.
Chen Qiuniang looked at Jiang Hang, who was standing in the middle of a group of shareholders, holding scissors and cutting the ribbon with everyone. His face was still calm and calm, and his gestures were so calm, and he couldn't see the slightest discomfort.
Please do not invite Jianghang. On this issue, Chen Qiuniang and Chen Wenzheng had a heated discussion. Originally, both of them didn't want to have anything to do with the Zhang family, but after thinking about it, Jiang Hang once borrowed a large amount of money and signed an equity contract with them. It should be pleased.
In the end, Chen Wenzheng said that if he refused, he would return the money to him in the future. If he comes, it will only be him, and it has nothing to do with the Zhang Mansion. Besides, it's just a business relationship.
Although Chen Qiuniang felt that Chen Wenzheng was a little self-comforting later, there was only this reason. They immediately sent a post to Jiang Hang, and Pan Qing sent the post back, conveying Jiang Hang's original words, I will definitely arrive.
Jiang Hang was coming, and he didn't hesitate knowing that Chen Qiuniang was here. This surprised Chen Wenzheng and Chen Qiuniang for a while.
"Why isn't that Jiang Danfeng on it, doesn't he say that he is also one of the shareholders? I just came to see that kid, with red lips and white teeth, a rare beauty. A man with a sword next to him said that his index finger and thumb were casually rubbing his chin, and it looked disgusting.
"Jiang Danfeng is a man." Someone next to him retorted.
"I know. But the wives of the dignitaries like this kind of kid. The man's words became more and more dismissive, and the people next to him showed disdainful glances.
Chen Qiuniang didn't want to listen to this person's foul language, so she moved a place and continued to squat in the crowd. The ribbon-cutting ceremony of Yunlai Inn was very smooth. After that, there is a regular lion dance.
After some knocking and knocking, Yunlai Hotel will be officially opened.
On the first day, there was a display of specialties. First of all, the apprentices show their skills, and then the chefs show their talents. All kinds of dishes and snacks make everyone swallow their saliva.
After the display of the dishes, it was the collective appearance of the waiters, and they shouted slogans, which was very imposing. Chen Qiuniang knew that these things were very cheesy, but at this moment, they were very helpful for the popularity, grade and popularity of the hotel.
After the display, the waiter foreman of the hotel will introduce the price and dishes of the day. Immediately afterwards, she personally hung the menu on the wooden board, which was considered the official opening today.
In the big pot facing the street, there are home-cooked delicacies, roasted bamboo shoots with gravy, white radish in chicken soup, braised pork, and cabbage for boiled meat, and in the other big pot is bone consommé, which is free of charge and served with rice. The rice is steamed rice in a large retort.
The waitress reported the price of today's dishes aloud, and everyone present was discussing: This is impossible, how can it be possible to eat meat dishes for five cents now. How can they make money by doing this?
"yes, yes." Someone chimed in.
Everyone didn't believe that they could eat meat for five cents. For these people who may not have eaten a serious meal in their lives, this is simply a supreme temptation.
"If you are in time, you can bring dishes and chopsticks to take home and eat. If you're not in a hurry, you can pick a table in the lobby and savor it slowly. Pan Qinglang said.
Yes, Pan Qing said this, and some of them were already ready to move. The first is the temptation of meat dishes, and the second is that the decoration of Yunlai Inn looks clean and decent.
"Well, if you can invite a rich family to a feast, it's worth dying." Many people have come up with this idea.
Chen Qiuniang hid in the crowd, listening to these discussions, she smiled lightly, she knew that she had taken a successful step. RS
