Chapter 56 Lao Cheng

Entering the door, there was a tall counter at the door, and a man in his fifties with a goatee saw the young lady of the Cheng family and greeted him from afar. This person is Li Shihe, the big shopkeeper of Caifeng Building.

"Young lady." The man saluted Feng Jianniang and said, "I heard that the young lady is going to bring someone here today, so it must be this one." ”

He looked at Xia Meizhen with disdain. He is a smart man, and he is self-aware of what the restaurant he runs is like. Yesterday, the young lady called him to beat him, and he could guess the meaning of the words, if the young lady could confer the official, he would not say anything, but the teenage girl who brought him over, this is a sincere insult to him.

However, in front of Feng Jianniang, he would not do anything to be manipulated, he was still respectful, and greeted Xia Meizhen.

"The little lady is so young, she is really young." gave Xia Meizhen eye drops without a trace, but Xia Meizhen completely ignored him, and modestly replied that Li Shihe had won the award.

Seeing that they had greeted each other, Feng Jianniang said, "Shopkeeper Li, Meizhen, let's go in and talk." ”

Immediately, he entered the back hall.

Li Shihe's eyelids twitched fiercely, and seeing that the girl didn't know what it meant to follow the young lady in, her eyes almost stared out of two holes in her body, as if she felt something strange, Xia Meizhen in front of her turned her head and glanced at him, and the shopkeeper Li immediately corrected his attitude and smiled flatteringly.

Xia Meizhen, who has been in the service industry for more than 20 years, where would she not know his little Jiujiu? With just one glance, I can see that this shopkeeper Li is a person who has a low eye and a low hand, and he will repay his eyes - Feng Jianniang told her about the situation of Caifeng Building, and the high-grade restaurant with a good location in general, as long as it is not inexperienced, will not make ends meet.

It's just that Shopkeeper Li's actions are still within his own tolerance, so Xia Meizhen naturally doesn't care about him.

The back hall is like a report hall, with two seats on the top, four seats in each of the left and right rows below, with a coffee table, two paintings hanging on the walls around it, and a pair of floor-to-ceiling beauty urns on the side of the four doors leading to the courtyard. The courtyard is a patio, planted with four large potted plants, the environment is solemn and simple, but it is a good place for meetings and hospitality meetings.

Feng Jianniang sat down at the top and said what Xia Meizhen said that day, the management rules of one shopkeeper and one account room, and then said: "Miss Xia is the person I invited from outside, although she is a little younger, but there are not many means at all, Shopkeeper Li, you also know your own ability, so don't rely on your qualifications to bully Miss Xia here, let me know that I will definitely not spare you." This is the excuse Feng Jianniang found for Xia Meizhen, otherwise Xia Meizhen's age is really not convincing at all.

"Yes, yes, yes." Li Shihe bent over to respond, and he couldn't see the disobedience at all.

Xia Meizhen, who was on the side, looked at her nose and stood still, like an old monk who had settled down. But she was still very grateful to Feng Jianniang for her thoughtfulness.

Feng Jianniang continued: "Then it's decided, Miss Xia wants to try her hand here, you have to listen to her opinion in everything, in addition, the decoration of the restaurant will be taken care of by Miss Xia, you know?" ”

"Yes." Li Shihe turned to face Xia Meizhen and said, "I'm tired of the girl" In order to show his sincerity, the shopkeeper Li bent down to ninety degrees, Xia Meizhen hurriedly avoided it, and hurriedly said: "If you can't do it, please get up." ”

Feng Jianniang looked at it coldly, and Xiangqin, the girl who came with her, went over and reminded: "Young lady, let's come out for a while, it's time to go back." ”

As a family woman, she is responsible for her words and deeds. Feng Jianniang immediately stood up and said to Xia Meizhen and Shopkeeper Li: "You two can do the decoration here, I'll go back first, and Meizhen will write a note to get it from me." ”

"Send the young lady." Shopkeeper Li followed Feng Jianniang out, and the two watched Feng Jianniang get into the carriage and go back to the restaurant after walking away.

At this time, there were no customers in the store, Xia Meizhen didn't have so many scruples, and went inside to look around - in addition to the tables and chairs in the lobby, there were pillars, and there was no shelter at all, and the shopkeeper Li said on the side: "Our restaurants in Xuanzhou Mansion are like this, with a large space, suitable for foot merchants, and a private room on the second floor, suitable for people to talk." Would you like to go up and have a look? ”

Xia Meizhen nodded, and Shopkeeper Li immediately led the way in front and went up the stairs to the second floor. The staircase on the second floor is still two one-person tall beauties, ten private rooms on the left and right along the corridor, and the door number is full of auspicious words, what flowers are full moon, thousands of miles Chanjuan and the like, but it is similar to the modern box.

Li Shihe pushed open the door of a nearby box and took Xia Meizhen inside, this is a suite, divided into two rooms by a sliding door, the interior and exterior are almost the same, both are a large round table, a window facing the backyard of the restaurant, and a potted plant on a flower shelf.

Xia Meizhen looked around the sliding door, the four feet of the sliding door are hollowed out and carved with entwined peonies, birds, phoenixes and other groups, and the middle of the screen is inlaid with a silk cloth landscape map, which is only worth a lot of money at a glance.

When Li Shihe saw her like this, he despised her even more in his heart, but he explained kindly on his face, "Most of the people from those big families who come out for outings are men and women, and it is not easy to sit together during meals, so there is this sliding door." ”

This seems to be a well-intentioned explanation, but in fact, it expresses that Xia Meizhen is a girl from the countryside, rare and strange, and she doesn't even have this common sense.

Hearing this, Xia Meizhen looked at him sideways, and Li Shihe, who was looking at it, was shocked, and inexplicably felt that he had encountered a powerful character.

"Is this the layout of all the private rooms here?" Xia Meizhen asked.

"It's all like that." When Li Shihe saw that she didn't react to her words, he felt that he was scaring himself, and immediately lost his previous respect.

"Are the other private rooms in Xuanzhou Mansion the same as here? Is it all like this? Xia Meizhen asked again.

"It's different, they have a maximum of three or five large private rooms like this," Li Shihe shook his head, and burst out of a kind of pride in his body, "How can they have the confidence to be the same as us, our restaurant is the most high-grade restaurant in the whole Xuanzhou Mansion, naturally everything is based on the best and most high-end, where can they be compared with those small households." ”

"So, only those who come out with their families will come to our Caifeng Building." Xia Meizhen said in an affirmative tone, looking at Li Shihe, "And those restaurants in Xuanzhou Mansion that are not as good as ours are full of customers every day, right?" ”

Li Shihe was taken aback, these are the problems he only saw after two years of running Caifeng Building, but he didn't expect to be broken by this girl's words, and the embarrassed words in his heart were pressed down, and he didn't dare to say it for a while.

"Why did the girl say that?" He asked.

Xia Meizhen stood up straight, and said with a humble attitude: "This is also my little opinion, if what I said is not right, Shopkeeper Li, please bear with me." ”

She walked out of the private room and stood in the corridor looking at the extra three or five guests in the store, "In a high-end restaurant like ours, the customers are not half of other people's houses, because our private rooms are aimed at the wrong source of customers; Second, the decoration of our restaurant is not distinctive; Third, the service in the store is not in place, and fourth, I have to look at the kitchen to know. As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around, walked straight downstairs, walked a few steps, didn't hear Li Shihe coming, and said, "Trouble Shopkeeper Li to lead the way." ”

Li Shihe was actually still in shock, he didn't expect that just by looking at such a few places, this little girl would be able to tell him one, two, three, and moreover, a little bit of hit.

He is in his fifties, half of the people are buried in the soil, and he is on an errand in a restaurant, and he has seen tens of millions of people, but he has never seen this poisonous old man, and he is also a woman!
