Li Qian's shop is at the end of the main street. The flow of people is okay, but it is not well decorated.
As soon as Wen Yi entered the door, he saw that the tables were in a mess, the waiter was lying on the bench with his eyes closed, and there were not many people in the kitchen. The shop area is about one hundred square meters, which is not small.
Wen Yi looked at Li Qian and asked, "How many people are there in the restaurant? Why are they all not here?"
Li Qian scratched her head and said, "Business is not good, they may have gone home."
Wen Yi looked at Chen Fei and said, "Brother Chen Fei, I won't keep any of the people here. Please notify them later to come and collect their wages."
Chen Fei said disapprovingly: "You don't want to keep any cooks? If you hire so many people at once, won't it affect your business?"
Wen Yi shook his head and said: "The people here have developed the habit of laziness. If you stay, you will only bring bad luck to the newcomers, so it is better not to stay. Are there any left-behind children here? They are the descendants left behind after their parents died in the battlefield. "
Chen Fei nodded: "Of course there are, there are quite a few, and some are even sold to tooth dealers. I will take you to see them later."
Wen Yi nodded and walked inside. There was an open space between the kitchen and the hall, with no obstruction in between. Standing at the door, you can see the dishes in the kitchen basket. On such a cold day, there is a smell in the kitchen. You can imagine how lazy the staff here are.
Wen Yi stood at the door of the kitchen and looked in. Although she said she couldn't cook, she had never eaten pork before and had seen pigs running away. The only thing in the house that was still usable was the big pot, and the rest was all scrap metal and couldn't be saved.
Chen Fei knew that Wen Yi was fast at doing things, so he quickly transferred two people and paid off the wages of the previous helpers in the restaurant to free up the place.
As for the kitchen workers and waiters, it depends on Wen Yi's arrangements. After walking around in a circle, Wen Yi followed Chen Fei and Li Qian to the tooth seller and whispered to Chen Fei: "Brother Chen Fei, I want to find four girls, preferably about the same height and more delicate. Don't be too nimble. Two agile men, preferably unmarried, and a cook. You are well-informed and can help me make more advisors."
Chen Fei nodded in agreement. Wen Yi didn't know anyone well and was not in front of him. Chen Fei selected the required personnel alone.
Li Qian also wanted to step forward to help, but Wen Yi held her back. A young and silly girl is probably not as good as her, why should she join in the fun?
Chen Fei led his guards and quickly came out of the crowd. He saw seventeen or eight people behind him, and said to Wen Yi: "These are what I think you will need. You can just choose the ones you like. People Don’t worry about character, I will investigate everyone’s details when we get back.”
Wen Yi looked at these people and picked four pretty girls, two tall boys, and a cook.
After finishing the selection, he said to them: "I want to open a restaurant. I need four girls who serve dishes, two young men, and a cook. I only have a few requirements for you all. You must have a clean family background, do things neatly, and avoid cheating." I will sell the skater again. People's destiny depends on themselves. Follow me. As long as you are diligent and old, I will sell you a deed, let you start a family and start a business, and regain your freedom. Now, follow me Put your hands up."
The seven people looked at each other with doubts in their eyes, but despite this, they still looked at Wen Yi firmly and raised their hands.
Wen Yi introduced himself: "My name is Wen Yi, and I will be the owner of the restaurant from now on. I hope you all get along well. Now please introduce yourselves."
Chen Fei watched them hesitate and stepped forward and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it. Wen Yi is not a stingy person, but if anyone has bad intentions and dares to offend her, I, Chen Fei, will not be the first to tolerate him. But you heard me ?”
Everyone nodded quickly, and a short and fat man said, "My name is Pang Zhu. I used to cook in a wealthy family."
"My name is Zhang Er. I used to be a guard in someone else's house."
"My name is Ada. I have never done anything outside. I just don't have enough rice to cook at home, so I sold myself for money as a last resort."
"The four of us have been sold since we were children. We don't have names. We were all given by our boss."
Wen Yi looked at Chen Fei and said, "Is there such a thing? Why don't you get one?"
Chen Fei said: "Generally, new owners will give them new names in order to completely separate them from their previous lives. It's better for you to name yours by yourself, and you should be able to name them smoothly."
Wen Yi was thinking about a lot of things ahead, so he had no time to waste here, so he said to them: "Your boss's surname is Chen. From left to right, I will call you Chen Chun based on the four seasons of the year, spring, summer, autumn and winter." , Chen Xia, Chen Qiu, Chen Dong. May your life be like the flowers and plants in spring, growing vigorously; like the scorching sun in summer, passionate like fire; like the fruits of autumn, full of harvest; like the ice and snow in winter, white and flawless."
"Chen Chun"
"Chen Xia"
"Chen Qiu"
"Chen Dong"
"Thank you, my boss, for the name!"
"Our new store is called Huibin Building. I hope you will take care of it as your own home. Now come with me to clean it up."
Chen Fei started cleaning up before he left. When Wen Yi and the others went back, the reception building had been cleaned up. Wen Yi looked at the empty hall and said with emotion: "There are so many people here, so they are powerful and move very quickly." Yes."
Chen Fei urged: "If you have any other requests, please tell me immediately. Stop being so quick-tongued."
Wen Yi quickly said seriously: "I want to separate five private rooms inside, which are ordinary small rooms, and then build a kitchen in the back. I just want to ask you, what are the walls used here? Can I use wooden boards?"
After hearing this, Chen Fei asked: "What are you doing this for? Let me see what is better."
Wen Yi explained: "The main thing is to give people some space of their own, like you and me, we eat and chat together and don't want to be heard by others. At this time, I will choose a separate room to eat so that I won't be disturbed by others. so."
Chen Fei nodded and said: "Then let's use the screen. Make it thicker. You measure the size and I'll send someone to buy it."
Wen Yi told Chen Fei about the general style. Chen Fei measured the size himself. In the end, Wen Yi just made a large countertop for the kitchen. There was no running water here, so I bought a water tank.
After calling Fat Zhu over and letting him take a look, he added a lot of pots and pans, and the kitchen was simply decorated.
In the hall, Chen Fei added a few square tables and a few large round tables according to Wen Yi's instructions, and he had already started cleaning in spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Wen Yi asked Chen Fei to arrange another place for them. In the evening, he asked the guards to take Ah Da to buy some vegetables, grains and oil, and Fat Zhu made a simple meal.
Wen Yi invited everyone to eat together, but they were still a little reserved. After all, they had never sat down to eat with their host before.
Wen Yi said to them: "I just said today that we are a family? There is no distinction between high and low in life. You don't steal or rob, and you are upright. In my opinion, you are a gentleman, and you deserve my respect. If you are I will despise and look down on you who are willing to degenerate, burn, kill, plunder, and not learn good deeds. Let me ask you, are you?"
Ah Da shook his head and said, "I don't know how to do that. I earn my living based on my ability and earn my money based on my hard work. I am not humble."
After hearing this, Wen Yi nodded and said: "For today's meal, whoever feels that he is a man of conscience, upright and upright, and has never had any intention of harming others, just sit down for me. I, Wen Yi, will never look down on people who work hard to live."
Li Qian was so excited that she responded: "Sister Wen is right, I, Li Qian, am the first to agree."
As Li Qian took her seat, everyone sat down one after another. Chen Chun wiped his tears silently and said to Wen Yi: "I have forgotten when I have eaten such a table of food. I worry about doing something wrong every day. Being betrayed. Everyone around me is smart and thoughtful, but I am not the best. I never imagined that I would have such a day. I am really grateful to you!"
Wen Yi looked at her and said, "Don't cry. Since you know it's not easy for you and the world is difficult, you have to work harder. Good people will be rewarded eventually. Sometimes it's not that they don't get rewarded, it's just that the time has not come yet."
Then he raised the bowl and said to everyone: "Although I am not talented, I will do my best to protect everyone. You just need to do your part and have a good mind. I know that everyone is poor. From today on From now on, we are a family, we should care for each other, help each other, and integrate into this big family as soon as possible, okay?"
Although there were no glasses or wine, everyone still picked up their bowls and shouted happily: "Okay!"
