Chapter 22 Traveling to Xiangguo Temple
The Ruyi Tavern was renamed Jiangnanju, and it will no longer be just the property of the Meng family. After the culinary art is counted as a technology shareholding, at least in the next three years, half of the income will belong to Lin Zhao and Gu Yuelun.
Therefore, Lin Zhao naturally tried his best, racked his brains to find a way, and thought about all the modern marketing methods he could think of, and found feasible ways to bring the restaurant back to life and carry it forward.
After carefully surveying the surrounding situation and the restaurant's own conditions, Lin Zhao had an accurate positioning, and then planned a rectification and reform method.
Immediately after that, the business was completely closed, and construction began to be carried out to renovate and decorate. All in all, it is necessary to completely reinvent itself and appear to the public in a state of renewal in all things.
When Gundam announced that Lin Zhao would take over the restaurant and Gu Yuelun would take over the kitchen, a kind of guy looked uneven, and he dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. Especially a few chefs in the store, they sneered unashamedly: A little girl can also be a chef?
Lin Zhao just smiled faintly, and the facts were more convincing at any time. When Gu Yuelun showed his hand slightly and made a few delicate and delicious side dishes, they immediately shut up.
**Naked, slap in the face, this is called cooking, only ability!
Dishes are the foundation of the restaurant, and Gu Yuelun's craftsmanship has given the guys hope, and they are all full of morale and enthusiasm. The doubts about Lin Zhao's cousins also subsided, and the top and bottom were harmonious, and they were united.
However, from this, Lin Zhao also realized a problem, the level and character of the existing chefs are really not very good, and it is a little inappropriate to let my cousin cook in the same kitchen with these big men! He didn't want Gu Yuelun to be wronged and embarrassed...... As a result, an idea that had been germinating for a long time swelled again......
"Recruit a cook?" Gao Gao didn't understand, what was Lin Gong going to do? There are a lot of idle cooks in the store, although the skills are average, but the newly recruited chefs are not sure how strong they can be! These days, he has been confused by Lin Zhao's various strange thoughts and actions.
Lin Zhao nodded and said: "That's right, the deliciousness of the dishes is only one aspect, and the difference is not very big, so I have to make some fuss about the identity of the culinary master." Do you think, the chefs in the major restaurants in Bianjing are all men, and they are plain...... If we all change to good looking chefs, will it be more distinctive?
Men are inevitably said to be stinky men, and the feeling of the cook is different, the appearance is elegant, beautiful and refined, ingenious, and gives people a better feeling...... And for those businessmen who come and go, there are some similarities between the cook and the lady's hand-made spoon at home, and the restaurant is called Jiangnan Ju, and the residence is also! Naturally, it will feel a little bit of home, and it will undoubtedly be more attractive. ”
"This ...... May I? Does it mean to betray hue? I'm afraid it's not big! Gundam hesitated, still a little hesitant.
Lin Zhao shook his head and said, "How can you say that?" How could I let my cousin be wronged? ”
"What about the original cook? You can't get rid of them all! "With Gu Yuelun taking the lead, what can the shopkeeper say?
Lin Zhao said with a smile: "When the time comes, it will be divided into two kitchens...... The original male chef made preliminary preparations at the back, and designed an outer kitchen next to the hall, separated by beaded curtains, and the chefs were faintly seen cooking...... You don't have to show your head, Hazy Beauty understands? ”
"Hazy beauty?" Gundam was stunned when he heard this.
Lin Zhao said: "Don't ask so much, just recruit...... You don't need to have any cooking experience to be good, we can teach all of this...... It's best to be in the store for a long time, at least two or three years. There is also character, character is the most important, and our craftsmanship is naturally to be kept secret at the beginning......"
"Good!" Gundam agreed, and he couldn't agree more. The major restaurants in Bianjing regard stir-frying as a divine skill, which has been passed down from generation to generation, is extremely cherished, and is rarely leaked to outsiders. Of course, at the same time, he was also curious, where did Miss Gu learn her amazing cooking skills?
"By the way, the layout and furnishings everywhere have been changed according to my requirements, don't worry about the money, the upfront investment is a must......"
"The old man knows!" Gundam muttered in his heart, of course I don't feel sorry if it's not your money.
"Especially the color building that welcomes guests at the door, I personally designed and supervised the construction, and I must not be sloppy ......"
"Yes yes ......" There are so many things, Gao Gao kept nodding his head as if pecking rice, and then he woke up and asked, "What about the plaque at the door?" Generally, I have to find a calligrapher to write, but I'm afraid it's not easy to do......"
"It's really a bit tricky......" The signboard is extraordinary, and it must be cautious, Lin Zhao said: "Don't worry about this first, I'll think of a way to ......" But in fact, it was a mess and had no clue......
From planning to arranging construction, Lin Zhao has been busy for several days......
Meng Ruoying completely acted like a shopkeeper, and after explaining the money to the account office, she took Gu Yuelun to play around the city.
It's so inhumane, Lin Zhao saw it in his eyes, and the gap in his heart was a little big, and he strongly condemned it!
This said, the craftsman rebuilt the Yingbin Cai Building according to the requirements, and Lin Zhao ordered people to set up the curtain and personally supervise the construction.
Gu Yuelun happened to accompany Meng Ruoying to return, and when she saw this scene, she couldn't help but be curious: "What is this for?" Why should we cover it with a veil? ”
Lin Zhao smiled: "For the sake of secrecy! The design of this color building is so chic, it will definitely be able to shine when it opens, and it will not be beautiful if it is exposed in advance...... Moreover, by covering the curtain, passers-by will inevitably be curious, isn't it more attractive? Let them wait and see! ”
"Cleverness again!" Meng Ruoying pouted and said softly.
Lin Zhao said: "It's a little smart, but it's also making money for the Meng family, Miss Meng doesn't comfort her, but she is sarcastic to me, isn't this appropriate?" ”
"Okay, okay, Lin Gongzi has worked hard!" Meng Ruoying has unconsciously developed a habit and often jokes with Lin Zhao sarcastically.
Gundam saw it from afar and said in his heart: Isn't it? How can Miss and Lin Zhao live like a pair of enemies, and they are still flirting! Could it be that this guy wants to become the uncle of the Meng family?
Lin Zhao sighed: "Miss Meng, are we not duplicitous? Let's be practical, you are staring here, I'll go out for a walk, how about it? ”
"Are you so embarrassed?"
Lin Zhao smiled and said, "What's so embarrassing, we are fair and cooperative!" ”
"You......"
Gu Yuelun chuckled: "Cousin, don't complain, Ming said that there is a temple fair in Xiangguo Temple." When I came back, Sister Ruoying said, please go with you! ”
"I don't know the hearts of good people!" Meng Ruoying's face was full of anger, and she dropped a sentence and went in.
"Hey! This girl ......" Lin Zhao smiled, but he didn't know what to say......
