There is a reason why the catering industry is called "diligence", which emphasizes the word "diligence" more than other jobs.

Since ancient times, a cook who eats by skill is not a noble profession, and scholars have put forward the argument that "a gentleman is far from cooking", and only those who are willing to work hard to earn food are willing to enter the industry.

Therefore, the chef line should also be counted in the so-called lower ninth rate.

In fact, in terms of physical effort alone, the work intensity of these industries such as head shaving, pedicure, and selling goods is not as good as that of the catering industry, and although those who carry large bags, pull carts, and dig coal in mines are hard and tired, they do not need to worry and worry as much as the catering industry.

At the same time, the catering industry is worrying and laborious, and it takes time.

Normally, the work of a restaurant starts in the early hours of the morning, and at 5 a.m. or even earlier, you have to go to the morning market to buy, and then it is time to prepare, and it takes at least four or five hours to simply hang a soup in the kitchen, and you can't leave anyone in between. What's more, there are cumbersome processes such as choosing vegetables, cutting meat and changing knives, pickling, etc., which extremely test people's patience.

When the meal is opened, the tension in the whole kitchen is like a war, and under the blazing flames, all departments need to work together precisely. The heads of each department have to be highly concentrated, and a moment of distraction may cause mistakes, which emphasizes more details, and even the order of serving food needs to be grasped, and this time it is a test of people's overall planning and response ability.

As soon as the post-dinner cleanup is finished, you don't have time to catch your breath and immediately start cleaning up and preparing the next meal until dinner.

It is usually not until after eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening that a group of cooks will usher in the happy moment of the day.

In this way, every detail of a restaurant that wants to run a restaurant well from 5 a.m. to night and even into the early hours of the morning cannot be ignored.

Although there will be a division of labor between departments, the person in charge needs to invest energy in each link, and individual times need to be hands-on.

A good restaurant is to grasp these details well, in order to have a good production.

Of course, a good restaurant is really profitable.

The diligence of the catering industry is a real diligence, and you have to devote yourself to it for more than 20 hours a day, which is not something that ordinary people can bear.

Fortunately, Yao Yuan would be lazy, so he chose a braised meat shop that was not too difficult to start, and with the help of Man Cheng and Brother Dang, a small braised meat shop was successfully opened.

If you have the experience of being a chef, you will instinctively divide the work and assign it to everyone reasonably, and you will do some checks at key nodes.

It is also because of this that the opening of this braised meat shop did not consume much energy from Yao Yuan.

But now it's different, the next thing to open is a serious storefront, from door decoration to staff recruitment to clothing unification, everything needs to be arranged by him, the core person, to arrange the details.

The eldest brother of the party is from the Huotou army, and it is no problem for him to formulate some kitchen-related rules and regulations and kitchen regulations, but when it comes to management, he is completely a layman.

Fortunately, the comrades of the founding of the party have traveled through the vicissitudes of the sea, received strict training in the army, and once had their heads broken in society, and they have cherished this cause very much, and they have invested extraordinary enthusiasm and energy.

If you don't know how to learn, there are a lot of masters around you, don't care if it's Aunt Wei from the neighborhood committee or Director Gu from the police station, and even the people around him, Mancheng and Xie Laopao'er will become the object of his consultation, of course, there are also the reliable and unreliable Yao Yuan and Master Yao.

has been accustomed to Yao Yuan's reliability and unreliability, and now no matter what inexplicable ideas he comes up with, the party can actually do it without being surprised, and can also ask carefully, for things he doesn't understand, he must ask to find out; For things that you can't find a way out, even if your own "owner" shrinks back, you have to force yourself to ask for a solution.

And Yao Yuan did a really good job, as long as he told the big brother the party what to do, and then pushed the next trivial matters clean up on the grounds of study tension.

Even for a major event like the decoration of the door, he just introduced his friend Qi Baohua, who he met from wrestling, to Brother Dang, and then he didn't ask the rest more.

Qi Baohua, that is the wrestler that Yao Yuan met in Zizhu Park, he once teamed up with Yao Yuan to catch thieves and teach gangsters a good buddy together, his short and sturdy figure is extraordinary, and at the same time, he is an expert in ancient building maintenance.

Qi Baohua's work unit is the repair team of the district's housing management office.

The district house repair team is not only responsible for the maintenance of residents' houses, but also undertakes the repair of several places of interest in the district.

In fact, in the ancient city of the Second Ring Road, many of the seemingly inconspicuous courtyard houses have a history of hundreds of years, many of which can be traced back to the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Qi Baohua's repair team is hidden in the dragon and crouching tiger, concentrated a number of ancient masters, speaking of which these masters should be regarded as treasure-level experts in this area, but unfortunately in this environment, everyone does not pay so much attention to the repair of old ancient buildings, they all like the modern buildings with glass curtain walls and marble floors, and the craftsmanship of these masters is not taken seriously, so they have to deign to retire in the small repair team.

Hearing that Yao Yuan, who came to the door, wanted to decorate his braised meat chain store in a unified way, and also make an antique door, and the style of the store should imitate the old deli shop, Yao Yuan talked for a long time, and before he finished speaking, Qi Baohua pouted and effortlessly drew a sketch on the spot.

The red bricks and green glazed tiles, the vermilion columns, the loach-backed panes and the large floor-to-ceiling glass windows are the effect that Yao Yuan wants.

Each store is no more than 40 square meters, generally 20 square meters is the best, antique door head plus this time rare bright non-slip floor tiles, jujube red counter glass inlay, each group of counters with spotlights, Yao Yuan almost intact in his mind a certain braised meat chain store decoration completely reproduced, and the key factor in this as the CI element of his own chain store in the future.

It's a bit shameless.

But Qi Baohua liked it very much.

The brothers of the repair team are idle every day, or they will not soak in the park every day to practice splashing, and the work suddenly introduced by the little brother Yao Yuan can bring the brothers the opportunity to earn extra money.

Unconsciously, there are many more construction sites in the city, and there are more and more farmers from other places working on the construction sites, these people should be Qi Baohua's peers, but there is one point that makes the repair team who eats public meals feel more and more uncomfortable.

The small workers who move bricks on the construction site are paid ten yuan every day.

If it is a joiner from southern Anhui and northern Jiangsu, it is even more unbelievable, I heard that the monthly income has reached more than 1,000.

And the big men of the repair team, the salary they receive now is the level of the small brick workers on the construction site.

Qi Baohua's master Gu Shunchang is in his fifties this year, and he once participated in and guided the repair work of Tiananmen Square, and he is definitely the top master in the industry, but his monthly salary plus allowance is not half the level of a southern joiner.

Now that I have taken over this decoration job from Yao Yuan, I can finally earn some money for everyone.

"Three thousand and five contractors." Qi Baohua quoted this price, and he was a little apprehensive.

When the party found, there was no reaction at all, and he stretched out his hand to signal the party to drink tea: "Brother Dang, I don't know much about your price, just tell me whether this price is high or low compared to others." ”

Qi Baohua didn't expect the other party to ask such a question, and his face was a little embarrassed: "Master Dang, to be honest, it's not easy to compare, Yao Yuan said at the time that he only asked for a good effect, and he had to bring out a little modernity in the antique style, we had to use good wood or everything in total, and the glazed tiles on the eaves could not be fooled, and even the pillars had to be covered with a layer of linen, a layer of mothproof, a layer of primer, and then a varnish outside. ”

pondered for a while, perhaps thinking that Yao Yuan had told him that all the details needed to be nailed to the party building, so he added: "But don't worry, there are good materials in our stockyard, this job is the work of our own buddies, we want to find a way to save you in the materials, and the total price must not be more expensive than outside!" ”

Qi Baohua's idea is very obvious, that is, the materials are public, and there is no need to use them in vain, as long as they can earn the wages of their brothers. The guys of the repair team are living too hungry, and Brother Peng has a pair of seventeen or eighteen-year-old twin brothers at home, and the two and a half children are too good to eat, so in order to let the children eat meat every week, Brother Peng even quit smoking.

Finally, there is a job now, I heard Yao Yuan say, what kind of chain braised meat shop has to open twenty within half a year, if this job can be taken in hand, the brothers of the repair team will have to smoke a big nine every day in the future!

Of course, the party knew what Qi Baohua was thinking, and he smiled: "That's not what it means, Brother Qi, Yao Yuan has discussed with me, this store will not set a budget for you first, we will give you 5,000 yuan first, what about you, prepare the materials to enter the site first, we don't know much about the decoration, we want a final good effect, so during the construction, we may discuss with you at any time to adjust the details, and when the final acceptance, we will make the final account, and then add to you if it is not enough, in short, First of all, the store in Qianjiakou is built as a model, and after the shape is set, the subsequent stores will follow this number of roads, do you think this will work? ”

Qi Baohua was a little confused, what is this? Want 3,000 for 5,000 without a budget? Why are you confused?

After thinking about it, I understood, co-authoring Yao Yuan's "make a sample first", it turns out that this is what it means, which is a bit interesting......

As everyone knows, whether it is Yao Yuan who came up with the idea or the party in charge of the party, the two of them are laymen who don't know anything about decoration, and Yao Yuan's idea is that the fat water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, and he will not go out of the basket to find his own buddies to do things, and he can go to school while doing it, Qi Baohua's repair team is not simply working on decoration, but starting from design.

As long as the decoration style of the first store is right, the next thing is to simply reproduce, which is very easy.

And let a group of professional Gu Jianda, doing this job should be familiar with the road, and even a bit of anti-aircraft guns to fight mosquitoes are useless.

Yao Yuan thought so, and the big brother of the party agreed very much.
