Chapter 10489
or……
Many, many versions.
But now that she is in her thirties, she has already been the mother of several children, and she has even become a mother-in-law.
When faced with Sun's nagging about cooking leftovers, Yang Ruoqing just smiled and listened.
No matter how much he complained in his heart, what showed on his face was definitely sincerity and patience.
Because only in this way can you reassure your parents and make them believe that you have heard what they said.
that's enough.
"Qing'er, don't forget to take care of the yard of your fifth uncle and fifth aunt's house."
Yang Huazhong, who was sitting next to Sun, also warned him again.
Yang Ruoqing glanced inside the carriage, smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, dad, I'll take care of you too!"
Mrs. Sun took over the conversation again and said, "Your Luo family is going to build a stove during this period. You can use your mother's stove as you like. Do you still remember which jars the pickled vegetables and dried vegetables I picked are in?" "
Regarding this issue, Yang Ruoqing was also speechless.
Those things are all Mrs. Sun's treasures. Mrs. Sun takes care of the housework at home and is also an extremely hard-working little bee.
In the past few days, she had told Yang Ruoqing, Wang Cuilian, and even the eldest Sun many times about her little possessions, and told them to come and get them whenever they wanted.
"Mom, I remember it all. I can get it anytime I want."
"That's good, eat more. I've pickled a lot. If you don't eat it, it will go bad. I will pickle it when I come back during the Chinese New Year!"
Yang Ruoqing smiled and nodded.
To be honest, Yang Ruoqing only mixes a little bit of those pickles and pickles with porridge for breakfast every day, or takes some to enhance the flavor when making fish and sour soup with meat.
She doesn't eat much in her daily life. After all, those pickled products contain too much nitrite, and frequent intake is not good for her health.
Moreover, when it comes to pickling pickles, not every woman in the village is good at it.
There are only a few women who are really good at it.
Most of them are actually novices, trying to cross the river by feeling the stones. Even if they are not novices, they practice every year, but their performance level fluctuates every year.
Take Yang Ruoqing herself as an example. She has been in this world for twenty years, but she has never made pickled vegetables.
why?
Because she couldn't grasp that area, she didn't spend her attribute points on that area.
Secondly, she was worried that her poor performance would affect the taste. Her main worry was that it was not marinated well and would contain carcinogens, which would be bad.
Looking across the ten miles and eight villages, many people suffer from some strange diseases at a young age. In many cases, it cannot be ruled out that it is caused by eating too much nitrites and the like, or eating something rancid...
"Mom, I can guarantee everything else, but I can't guarantee the pickles!" Yang Ruoqing said.
Sun was stunned for a moment, with a distressed expression on her face.
...I feel bad that her pickles are going to waste...
Yang Huazhong understood Yang Ruoqing, coughed, and reminded: "Don't eat too much of those things. They were used when times were difficult in the past."
"Children can't eat too much, Qing'er. If you don't like to eat, just ask your relatives and friends who likes to eat and let them scoop it up!"
Yang Ruoqing smiled and nodded, then went to see Mrs. Sun again, "Mom, is that okay?"
Mrs. Sun was not a stingy person, so she nodded quickly: "Okay, okay! Anyway, just don't waste it..."
Yang Ruoqing added: "Don't worry, it won't be wasted. I can send the mustard and pickled cabbage to Tianxiang Restaurant in town. The mustard with shredded pork noodles, fish with pickled cabbage, etc. will all come in handy."
"The rest of the pots and jars can't be put to great use in the restaurant, so I'll give them to relatives and friends. It's all a favor from you, mother!"
After Yang Huazhong and Sun were finally sent away, Yang Ruoqing stopped by Tianxiang Tower on her way back.
After finishing some business, Yang Ruoqing called Ju'er and Chen Biao to the private room in the backyard.
The young couple took time out that day to attend the housewarming banquet in the fourth room. After the noon banquet, Chen Biao and his eldest son hurried back to the restaurant.
Ju'er and her young son stayed at her parents' house for one night, and the mother and son returned to town the next day.
Chen Biao works as a purchasing manager in Tianxiang Building.
Ju'er is doing odd jobs in the backyard.
The eldest son was sent to school in the town. He was in the same school as his uncle Tiedan. However, according to their age and enrollment period, Tiedan was in the upper grade class and his nephew was in the lower grade class.
Usually, Chen Biao and Ju'er are busy working in the restaurant, and their younger son is left in the care of Chen Biao's mother.
At noon, Chen Biaoniang would bring her young son over to eat with them.
Or Ju'er could take the time to send some back to their grandparents.
All in all, the family's livelihood now depends on Tianxiang Tower.
Ju'er gets wages based on the standards of other waiters in the restaurant.
Chen Biao not only gets wages, but also gets bonuses at the end of the year.
Because he was in charge of procurement, all kinds of vegetable sellers, rice sellers, oil sellers, etc. in Wa City all wanted to curry favor with Chen Biao.
Chen Biao is also taking care of most of Kang Xiaozi's vegetable shop business.
Regarding these matters, Yang Ruoqing, as her boss, turned a blind eye.
Anyway, you spend money to purchase ingredients wherever you go. Yang Ruoqing only has two requirements for the purchasing staff in several places:
The first and most important thing is to ensure the absolute safety of the ingredients.
In the catering industry, diners come to the store to eat, and no problems are allowed.
Second, the water should be clear and free of fish, but the food should not be too ugly.
Regarding the purchase budget for each quarter, Yang Ruoqing was worried about it. Rebates are available in every place and every industry. But if it exceeds the limit set by my employer for you, then I'm sorry. Not only will you leave, but you will also be asked to leave. Be held accountable.
Therefore, the stewards in several places knew Yang Ruoqing's temperament, and everyone worked hard to maintain the normal operation of the restaurants in several places within the scope set by her.
For Chen Biao and Ju'er's family, they are now living in the Tianxianglou restaurant in the town, which is very comfortable and they are completely in a comfort zone.
They never think about breaking out of their comfort zone.
So when they walked into the elegant room and saw Yang Ruoqing closing the ledger in her hand, raising her head and speaking to them for the first time, they were immediately shocked!
My mind was blank and buzzing.
Because Yang Ruoqing said: "I came to you two to tell you in advance that I am going to reduce the business scale of the restaurant in this town. I don't need so many managers and workers, and I plan to lay off 50% of the people within the year!"
Ju'er suddenly panicked and stood there, her hands trembling uncontrollably.
There was only one voice in my heart: It's over, it's over, I am a useless handyman, I definitely won't be able to do it anymore.
If I get fired and go home, my family's income will be less.
Life must not be like it is now. The previously discussed plans to save money and buy a house have to be postponed. How can this be done...
In a panic, Ju'er turned her eyes to Chen Biao beside her.
After working as a steward for several years, although Chen Biao is as young as ever, he already has a calm temperament.
At this moment, although he was a little surprised when he heard that Yang Ruoqing was going to downsize Tianxiang Tower in the town.
However, he was not as panicked and confused as Ju'er.
Perhaps, it was also because he had confidence in his heart, and also had trust and respect for Yang Ruoqing, his employer, and knew that she could not lay off employees for no reason, and must have done something else.
If there was any other move, she would definitely continue to use a subordinate like him who had been cultivated by her for many years.
Chen Biao took a deep breath to make himself look more calm and calm in the face of trouble.
"Sister Qing'er, keep talking, we are listening!" Chen Biao said.
Yang Ruoqing had been observing Chen Biao's reaction just now.
As for Ju'er's reaction, she didn't need to pay attention because Ju'er was always doing odd jobs wherever he went.
Just as Chen Biao thought, Yang Ruoqing has indeed been cultivating Chen Biao these years.
“The flow of customers here in town, if the ceiling is there, that’s what will happen next.”
Yang Ruoqing continued.
"So I plan to revamp the Tianxiang Building in the town, making it smaller and lower-grade, so that when going to the market, villagers from ten miles and eight villages can have the confidence to walk in."
In the past twenty years, Tianxiang Restaurant has been the most high-end restaurant in Qingshui Town.
The town's landlords, members of staff, and customers from relatively well-off families would sometimes choose Tianxiang House in the town to entertain their friends.
But Qingshui Town is just a town after all. Given its size, the proportion of such high-spending people only accounts for 20 to 30% of the total population.
Therefore, the business done by Tianxiang Tower in the town is mainly in the second half of the year and the first month of the year.
For example, in the first half of the year now, there is almost half a year of off-season.
And because the initial positioning has raised the level, the prices of many dishes cannot be lowered.
In this way, it is not down to earth.
Yang Ruoqing had observed a long time ago that on the first and fifteenth day of every month, villagers and mountain residents from ten miles and eight villages came to the town to attend the market.
The street stalls and breakfast shops in the town are almost overcrowded.
And what about Tianxiang Tower?
Still empty-handed!
Even Baimeizhai in Dabai has a long-standing specialty and time-honored breakfast in the town. It also sells mid- to low-end Chinese food. Therefore, Yang Ruoqing suspected that the revenue of Baimeizhai in Dabai has been higher than that of Tianxianglou in the past six months!
Yang Ruoqing can't wait any longer, she must transform, transform immediately!
"Chen Biao, my first step is to reduce the size of restaurants in the town, and the next step is to revise the business scope of restaurants in the county."
"Yeah, I'm listening."
"In the county restaurant, I am going to replace three people."
Replace three people?
Chen Biao's heart moved, and a trace of emotion finally flashed across his face.
This is what he is most concerned about, and it is probably the real purpose of Sister Qing'er asking him to talk about this in private today.
"Mr. Zhang, the accountant at the county restaurant, is old. He told me twice that he would go home to retire after the Chinese New Year."
"In addition, the chef in the back kitchen, Elder Li, is no longer suitable to cook due to his physical condition."
"I will transfer these two people from the restaurant in town when the time comes."
"Well, I have met Mr. Zhang and Uncle Li several times. They are both very capable. However, due to their age and poor health, there is nothing we can do. Your health is the most important thing!" Chen Biao said.
