Chapter 286 Dismissal

It turned out that Manager Qian had invited Hu and Li to discuss business. Both of them were well-informed people. Manager Qian wanted to give them a surprise, but unexpectedly it turned into a shock.

There was a lot of discussion.

"Manager Qian, this is your fault!"

"Yeah, you made this small restaurant amazing! Just tasted it, doesn't it taste authentic at all!"

"I still want to try the Beijing-flavored Sichuan cuisine you mentioned, but I didn't expect it to be this kind of popular food!"

Manager Qian lowered his head with an embarrassed expression on his face.

He waved after thinking for a moment. "Waiter, come here."

"Comrade, what can you do?" The waiter stepped forward and asked.

"Trouble, call the manager over here!" Manager Qian ordered.

Immediately, Manager Qian spread his hands. "Guys, I lost today, and you can order that restaurant later; wait a moment, I'll teach the restaurant manager a lesson!"

Everyone heard the words and talked a lot.

"Manager Qian is a good person. He can correct his mistakes and can communicate with him."

"That's right, it seems that Manager Qian has also been tricked!"

Under the guidance of the waiter, Yu Li stepped forward to inquire. "May I ask what you want from me?"

"Oh, you are the manager here!" Manager Qian responded. "I came to you just to ask, has your chef changed?"

Yu Li responded after thinking for a moment. "It seems that you are also our old supervisor here, please rest assured, we will not change chefs casually!"

Manager Qian stood up abruptly, and turned all the vegetables upside down.

"Hey, what do you mean?" Yu Li blushed with anger.

"Today's food tastes completely different from the last time I ate it. How dare you tell me that I haven't changed the chef!" Manager Qian picked up the rhythm. "Today I will show you the price of telling lies and deceiving people!"

Immediately, he led Manager Hu and others out of the scene.

The guests sitting next to him talked about it.

"The dishes haven't been moved, and all the people have left. What's going on?"

"Yeah, why did he lose his temper so much!"

Yu Li was quick to get wise and quickly comforted everyone. "They have something to do temporarily, everyone sit down and continue eating!"

The waiter quietly called Yu Li aside. "Manager, this kind of situation has been happening all the time these days, what do you think we should do?"

"Are all the guests so irritable?" Yu Li responded.

"Hey, this customer has a good attitude. Some customers want to grab the table!" The waiter showed a fearful expression. "Manager, you'd better think of a way!"

"This fat man, I want to settle accounts with him!"

As soon as the words fell, Yu Li walked into the kitchen angrily.

"Fatty, do you really know how to cook?"

"Manager, as the saying goes, if you don't have diamonds, you can't do porcelain work!" The idiot responded forcefully. "Since I dare to say that, I will definitely be able to cook!"

"What's the use of your self-confidence? Why do people say that your dishes are not authentic?" Yu Li asked the fat man.

"Manager, as the saying goes, teach apprentices to beat the master to death!" Fatty explained. "Shazhu is not stupid, can he give me all the unique skills at the bottom of the box?!"

"Then when I asked you, you gave me a guarantee that you would definitely get it, and let me give you a chance!" Yu Li was so angry that her brows stood on end.

"I follow the method taught by Sha Zhu. If you want to blame it, blame Xiao Chen who put in the seasoning!" Fatty is not stupid, he put all the responsibility on Xiao Chen.

"Xiao Chen, come here." Yu Li ordered.

"Manager, what's the matter?!" Xiao Chen showed a curious expression.

"Tell me the truth, where did you get the ingredients from?" Yu Li asked.

"I didn't bring in any condiments, it was all bought by Sha Zhu himself." Xiao Chen responded.

"You are so stupid, don't you know how to go shopping with him?" Yu Li blushed with anger.

"Manager, I told him several times, but he never took me there!" Xiao Chen argued.

"Then how many days' taels does he buy each time?" Yu Li had an idea.

"I persuaded him to buy more each time." Xiao Chen said after thinking for a while. "But he always said that it's not troublesome, and he buys two days' worth each time!"

"Let me tell you, you will let the fat man buy seasonings in the future!" Yu Li gestured.

"Manager, that's right." The fat man showed a joyful expression.

"Don't rush to be happy, I warn you!" Yu Li said, pointing at the fat man. "If there is another incident where a customer flies an order because the taste of the food is not right, I will deduct money from your salary!"

"Manager, you can't do this!" the fat man begged Yu Li.

"Get out of here!"

As soon as the words fell, Yu Li walked out of the kitchen angrily.

Seeing her walking away, the fat man reprimanded everyone. "What are you looking at, you don't need to work! If you don't work hard in the future, I will suggest that the manager deduct your wages!"

Everyone dared not speak out, and returned to their respective jobs.

**
Although the fat man worked very hard, Sha Zhu was wary of him and did not pass on all his skills to him.

Even if he went to buy the condiments by himself, the taste of the dishes was still average.

Yan Jiecheng asked Fatty to go to Shazhu for advice, but Fatty went anyway out of desperation.

The fat man pushed a bag full of gifts to find Shazhu.

"Master, I want to ask you."

Silly Zhu interrupted him. "Don't shout like that, I will never be your master from now on, and I have nothing to teach you!"

"Master, listen to my explanation!" Fatty was still unwilling.

Silly Zhu showed displeasure on his face, and chased people away. "You go, I don't want to see you!"

As soon as the words fell, Sha Zhu pushed the fat man out of the door.

He pushed the fat man out of the door, and threw the gift out of the door. "From now on, you take your Yangguan Road, and I take my single-plank bridge!"

"Silly Zhu, I remember your humiliation to me. Sooner or later, Master Fatty will make you regret it!"

The fat man dropped a harsh word and left the scene.

Although Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li tried to cover up the fact that the head chef had been replaced, as the saying goes, paper can't cover fire, so the news spread.

The business of the restaurant plummeted. In order to recover the loss, Yu Li reluctantly launched a price cut to promote sales, but the effect was not good. Even during the peak dining hours, there were not many customers to patronize.

The income of the restaurant has decreased, but the rent, labor, and purchase expenses are fixed expenses every month, and the income cannot cover the expenses. The restaurant's funds are gradually becoming tight.

It was raining all night when the room leaked, so the landlord found Yu Li and informed her that the rent would increase by [-]%.

Of course Yu Li was unwilling to accept it. "We negotiated the price at the beginning, how can you say it will go up now, it's unreasonable for you to do so!"

"You know, you said it was a small business, and let me support you in starting a business, and we agreed on a very low rent; now that the lease expires, I can no longer lose money and let you make money!" The landlord responded forcefully.

"I understand what you mean, but now, not only are we not making money, we are still losing money; it is very difficult to even continue to operate!" Yu Li complained, trying to get the landlord's understanding.

"There are many restaurants on this street, and rents are generally rising. People can accept the price increase, and you should too." The landlord shook his head.
