Chapter Ninety-Six: Something Happened
After Su Jin finished drinking, Master Zhang smiled again and said, "Miss Su, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very good to you."
Su Jin nodded and smiled: "That's why I have to do a good job to repay him for this kindness."
Master Zhang smiled: "What does Miss Su want a slave to do?" The minions will do their best. Moreover, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already explained, and our kitchen guys fully cooperate with Miss Su. ”
Su Jin smiled: "Okay, Master Zhang, I'm here to discuss the dishes with you." I think we want to add something more than just making hot pots. For example, fruit platters, refreshments, cold dishes, cooked food, etc., in this way, if there are enough varieties, we can also attract more people of all kinds. Whatever they want to eat, we try to provide them with as much as we can. ”
Master Zhang nodded.
Su Jin took out a piece of paper, all of which were the general directions of the dishes she thought of by herself. Of course, the kitchen staff who are familiar with this part of the operation, she would like to discuss it with Chef Zhang again.
Whether it's recruiting or cooperating, as long as it's convenient to do things, it's okay to benefit together.
And the most important thing is that Master Zhang is in the kitchen, and he can help Su Jin find these related talents.
Su Jin discussed with Master Zhang for a long time before finalizing the list of some personnel. However, the personnel in this kitchen are, of course, handled by Master Zhang, and as for the price and the like, he will finally talk to Su Jin face-to-face.
After all, Su Jin is nominally the owner of the "Hot Pot" restaurant, so these people Su Jin will look at it, and pay for their craftsmanship, if the price and dishes are feasible, the two sides will be able to reach an agreement.
After Su Jin handed over the kitchen to Master Zhang, he returned to Dongnuan Pavilion.
In the East Warm Pavilion, Xiuxiang and Xiuping are making colorful shell bracelets. That's what Su Jin taught them to do, not only them, but also the maids in the house, if anyone is free on weekdays, they will also go to Su Jin to get some colorful shellfish to do handicrafts. Naturally, is this manual cost? Su Jin calculated it for them on a piece-by-piece basis, and then distributed these manual fees. It is equivalent to saying that in addition to being a maid in the prince's mansion, they can also earn a little extra labor fee.
Su Jin was busy with the business of the "Hot Pot" shop, so he handed over the job of Caibei to Xiuxiang and Xiuping.
However, Su Jin will let the two of them keep accounts, of course, it is Su Jin who will negotiate the shipment to the jewelry store.
Xiuxiang saw her come in, so she handed her an account book, Su Jin took it and looked at it, the little girl used the method she taught, I remember it was not bad, the terms and conditions were clear and clear.
Su Jin nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Xiuxiang, I remember the accounts well, and I will record them like this in the future."
Xiuxiang nodded, and then as if she remembered something, she said, "Miss Su, Manager Wu said that the prince has a new batch of colored shellfish for you to enter into your account."
"The new Caibei?" Su Jin was stunned for a moment, and then remembered what Cheng Zhao had told her before, sending someone to Yuhu Town to transport Caibei to her.
She didn't expect this batch of colorful shells to come over so soon. It seems that Chengzhao really took everything she said to heart.
Su Jin took a sip of tea, and asked Wu Shun and Xiuxiang to accompany him to check the new batch of Caibei.
Caibei was of the finest variety, bright in color, and intact in shell shape, undamaged, even better than what she had brought from Yuhu Town in a hurry.
Su Jin was very satisfied, and said to Wu Shun with a smile: "Manager Wu, I will enter this batch of colorful shellfish."
Wu Shun nodded, and said, "Miss Su, the prince said that this thing was given to you."
Su Jin sighed: "His Royal Highness the Prince...... Anyway, you don't keep this goods on the account, I'll help the prince write it down. ”
Then Su Jin asked Xiuxiang to take some silver out and give it to Wu Shundao: "Manager Wu, you take this silver to ask for a glass of wine for the brother who transported it."
Wu Shun wanted to shirk it, Su Jin would give them a lot of silver taels for anything they did before, and he was really embarrassed to take her silver again.
Wu Shun said: "Miss Su, you don't have to be like this...... We are all from the prince's mansion, and we never dare to disobey what the prince asks us to do, so this money ...... I don't want this money. ”
"Take it, invite them to a drink, in the name of the prince." Su Jin forced the money bag to him, and Wu Shun had no choice but to take it.
Wu Shun put away the money bag and said, "Miss Su, if you have something to do in the future, you just have to call us."
Su Jin smiled: "Okay, but speaking of which, it's really something."
"What's the matter?" Wu Shun hurriedly asked.
Su Jin said: "My "hot pot" store is about to be renovated and opened, no, there is a shortage of manpower in the store, and I want to ask Manager Wu to help find a few people." ”
"It's not simple" Wu Shun said with a smile: "The prince said, the people in the house are sent by Miss Su."
Su Jin shook her head, although Cheng Zhao also said the same thing to her, saying that the people in the prince's mansion were at her disposal. However, the people in the Prince's Mansion have things to do in the Prince's Mansion, and she can't be so selfish as to occupy Chengzhao's people.
So she said, "Mr. Wu, I want to find some people from outside." The people in the prince's mansion belong to the prince, if I use it, what will the prince do if he wants to use it in the future. Therefore, I will accept the prince's kindness, but I can't do this, in short, Su Jin asked Manager Wu to help find some other people to come over. Of course, you don't need too many people, twenty is about the same. ”
Wu Shun didn't expect Su Jin to be so understanding and willing to think about the prince, he glanced at Su Jin, thinking that Su Jin was so good, and it was also the prince's blessing to meet him.
Of course, since Su Jin has already made such a clear statement, Wu Shun is not ambiguous, so he should respond well.
Wu Shun went to be busy with other things, and after Su Jin saw the goods, he asked people to put them in the warehouse and load them, and then went to Dongnuan Pavilion.
It was getting late, and Seungzhao hadn't come back yet. Su Jin waited in the Winter Warm Pavilion for a while, planning to wait for Cheng Zhao to come back and have dinner together.
However, it was too long to wait.
This night, Seungzhao never came back. Su Jin was a little worried, this situation had not appeared since she came to this prince's mansion, even if Cheng Zhao had just returned to the court from outside.
Su Jin slept in a daze for a while, and then got up to warm the tea again.
In the Winter Warm Pavilion, a bean lamp was lit, not very bright, but very quiet.
Su Jin looked at the water in the fire in a daze, this ...... If you haven't come back for so long, is there something big going on in the DPRK?
Su Jin was uneasy, and it wasn't until dawn outside that Cheng Zhao rushed back from outside wearing a snow coat.
As soon as he entered the Dongnuan Pavilion, he saw Su Jin who was tired and lying on the table.
Su Jin was draped in a thin blanket, and the fire was still burning. He heard from his subordinates that Su Jin was alone in this Winter Warm Pavilion last night, and he wanted to come...... This stupid woman had been waiting here all night.
Cheng Zhao went to the stove to warm himself up before going to Su Jin's side. He bent over, ready to carry Su Jin back to the room to rest. Unexpectedly, as soon as he moved, Su Jin woke up.
"You're back?" Su Jin opened her misty eyes, she looked at Cheng Zhao, Cheng Zhao's face was a little tired, and there was a faint bloodshot in his eyes.
Cheng Zhao nodded and pulled the corners of his mouth slightly: "Well, I'm back, you...... Why don't you go back to your room and sleep? Although it is not cold in the winter warm pavilion, it is more comfortable to go back to the room to sleep. ”
Su Jin got up and poured him a cup of tea: "Your Highness didn't return overnight, is something wrong?"
