I'm a pirate in Tokyo
Volume 1 The Jolly Roger of Faith Chapter 30 Grand Maison Tokyo
Wu Sheng and the others went up to the second floor, and their view suddenly opened up. From the outside, the restaurant looked like three floors. In fact, there was no partition between the second floor and the third floor, so the height of the second floor was nearly 6 meters. High, making the entire restaurant environment look extremely open.
The area of the room is not large, only about 140 square meters, and including the terrace, it is less than 200 square meters.
To Wu Sheng's surprise, half of the room was occupied by the kitchen. Because it is an open kitchen, it still does not look particularly crowded, and it is obviously carefully designed.
Due to the area, there are not many tables, but each table is very clean and tidy, with pure white ironed tablecloths, neat and clean plates, cutlery, and decorative flowers placed in the center of the table, making dining more enjoyable. The environment is very comfortable.
"Nami-san, let's check here with Luffy first. Takeda, you and I will go see Chef Renko, Mr. Kyono. I'll ask you to take care of this place." After arriving on the second floor, Sanji's whole person changed. He was extremely steady and his momentum seemed to be rising.
"Is this the bonus the kitchen has for lustful cooks?" Wu Sheng and the other three nodded in greeting and followed him into the kitchen, thinking as they did so.
Not to mention Nami and Luffy who were visiting the restaurant.
Wu Sheng followed Sanji into the kitchen from the side and saw the chef of this restaurant, who turned out to be a gentle and gentle female chef. This is French cuisine, an area dominated by male chefs.
"He must be a very powerful person. After all, Sanji is working as an assistant chef here." Wu Sheng, who was well aware of Sanji's talent, looked at the peaceful female chef in front of him.
When she is about 40 years old, what time has brought her is not wrinkles and fatigue, but a life that is becoming more and more settled and translucent.
"Hello, I'm Sanji's classmate Takeda Asahi. I hope to work part-time in your store. I can wash vegetables, cut vegetables and wash dishes. I can do whatever I can to help."
"Haha, don't be so formal. Since you are the friend brought by Sanji-chan, we must all be trustworthy." The female chef smiled and looked at the young man in front of her, with neat short hair, firm eyes, and neat and clean facial features. , is obviously only a freshman in high school, but he has an unusually mature temperament.
"Yes, after all, Sanji-chan has been here for more than half a year, and I haven't heard that he has any friends." A young lady next to her who was whipping cream came over and said with a smile, "Hello, my name is Matsukage Moe. , Brother, just call me Menghui."
"Well, yes, everyone here is easy to get along with. Just treat them as normal. By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet." The female chef said, "I am the manager and chef of this restaurant. , see Lunzi soon, please take good care of me."
"Ah, please take care of me." Wu Sheng said quickly.
"Well, since we are all friends, we can get to know each other slowly in the future. We are preparing today's ingredients." Chef Renzi looked at the clock on the wall, "Let Sanji tell you what you have to do during your part-time job. , and Mr. Kyono will communicate with you about the hourly wage for making tools."
In the entire kitchen, in addition to Chef Renzi and Miss Matsukage, there are two male chefs busy processing ingredients. Including Sanji, there are only 2 people in the entire kitchen, which just matches the number of customers in the restaurant. "Okay, okay, you go ahead." Wu Sheng said quickly.
With such a number of members, there must also be a logistics person who is responsible for washing dishes, closing dishes, and serving dishes. Otherwise, letting the chef do these things will waste a lot of time.
The most troublesome and annoying thing in the kitchen is collecting and washing dishes.
"So, your job in the first week here is to collect the dishes, wash the dishes, and wash the vegetables. Once you are familiar with it, I will teach you some French food serving etiquette, and then let you take on the work of serving food." Shan Zhi took Wu Sheng around the kitchen and introduced them while talking.
"If you are interested in cooking yourself, we can also teach you~" said the chef wearing glasses who was handling the fish next to him.
"This is Mr. Aizawa, a very good cook, and a well-known 'cooking video gentleman' on the Internet." Sanji introduced with a very embarrassing title.
"Pfft!" Wu Sheng couldn't hold it back and laughed, and then reacted: "I'm sorry... Mr. Aizawa seems to be very stable, but this noble man didn't react at once."
"Hahahahaha, Aizawa, am I right! Your title is really funny." Another male chef on the side laughed loudly.
Sanji's face became more serious now. He extended his hand in an inviting gesture and introduced, "This is Ohana's sous chef and my master."
"!!!"
Wu Sheng looked at the man's handsome and dark face, his pupils narrowed, "Oh my god, Kimura Takuya????"
"What's the situation?" Wu Shengren was stunned, his mind was racing, and he checked all his existing memories in an instant. There were no film and television works related to this person.
"Ah, do you know me?" A man who looked like Kimura Takuya looked at Wu Sheng with surprise in his eyes, as if he recognized himself.
Wu Sheng came to his senses and realized that he was a little lost his temper. He quickly explained: "No, I just feel familiar. Maybe Mr. Ohana is too handsome."
"Hahaha, young man is really good at talking! Do a good job, I'm optimistic about you!"
"Um..." Wu Sheng didn't know how to answer the question. I'm just a handyman. What do you think of me...
"How should I put it?" Chef Renzi came over and said, "Mr. Ohana, in a sense, he is also very famous."
"Hey, this kind of thing is in the past, there's no need to talk about it anymore, right?" Kimura Takuya... hmm, Obana said dissatisfied.
"Hey!" Chef Renzi smiled and turned to Wu Sheng, "Has Sanji made it clear to you?"
Wu Sheng's mind was clear: "Well, it's all clear."
"Okay, you go say hello to Mr. Kyono. If there is no problem, I hope we can start today. After all, the kitchen is really short of manpower now."
"Ok."
Wu Sheng and Sanji said hello to several others and went to the lobby.
Luffy and Nami were sitting at a table, each eating a cake.
Seeing their eyes lighting up as they ate quickly without wanting to finish the food, it looked like it was quite delicious.
Sanji said to the middle-aged waiter standing aside: "Mr. Kyono, we have already met with Chef Renzi. I have also told Takeda about the specific work. I will leave him to you now."
Then he said to Nami and Luffy at the table: "Nami-san~ Uh-huh, then I won't interrupt you to enjoy the food. It's about to open now, so I'm going to help."
"Okay, okay." Luffy and Nami nodded repeatedly, feeling that today's trip was worth it.
"Yes." Sanji nodded, signaled to Wu Sheng, and went to the kitchen.
Wu Sheng ignored the two people eating next to him and greeted the man named Kyono politely: "Hello, I am Takeda Asahi who will be working here next. Please take care of me."
"Yeah, please take care of me." Kyōno looked at him and continued: "We have never recruited high school students as part-time workers before. Sanji also called us at noon and strongly recommended you to us."
As he spoke, he glanced at Sanji who was busy in the kitchen: "We are also temporarily short of manpower. Since Sanji recommended it, we will believe you."
Kyōno turned around, his aura changed, and his face became serious: "But we are a star-rated restaurant, so we naturally have high requirements for our employees."
"Understood." Wu Sheng also responded seriously.
Kyono looked at his serious expression and nodded, understanding that he took it seriously.
So his expression relaxed and he continued with a smile: "The hourly wage here is 2000 yen, which is a little higher than many places outside. I also hope you can understand the seriousness of this job and don't be careless just because the work has no technical content. , I hope you can take it seriously."
Wu Sheng nodded in surprise. He didn't expect to be given such a high salary. The minimum hourly wage in Tokyo, Japan, is 985 yen per hour, and the relatively high one can give 1200 yen.
He originally thought that a star-rated restaurant with a high reputation would pay around 1500 yen, but unexpectedly, he actually paid 2000 yen per hour.
"Okay! I will work hard."
"Okay, let's talk about other things:
Wages are paid daily.
Dinner is included, and the chefs in the store will prepare staff meals.
If you are interested in learning cooking skills, you can also ask the chefs for advice in their free time, and they are willing to teach you.
......"
Kyono talked about a series of matters, including various benefits and vacation and leave systems.
Finally, he said: "If you want to resign from this job, please tell us two weeks in advance so that we can recruit someone to take over your job."
Wu Sheng remembered them one by one, and then nodded to him, indicating that he had remembered them all: "I can start working today."
"Oh? That's really helpful. Then I'll take you to get your work clothes." Kyōno was overjoyed. The busy kitchen in the past two days made him worried, so he quickly led him to the back kitchen.
"Then I'll go first, and you guys can watch on your own." Wu Sheng greeted the two people who were eating.
"Go, go!" Both of them waved their hands to indicate that they would leave later.
At this time, Sanji ran over with three small bowls of seafood soup.
"Nami-san~ Come and try the seafood soup I made!"
"Thank you, Sanji-san." Nami felt much happier after finishing the snacks, and took the soup brought by Sanji with a smile on her face.
"Hey~, Luffy, this is yours, where's Takeda?" He also prepared it for Luffy and Wu Sheng, and he was thoughtful.
"He went in to change clothes and said he would start working today."
"Oh? What a resolute guy." Sanji raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Okay, since everything went well, it's time for us to say goodbye." Nami finished drinking the seafood soup, stood up and said, "It's time for me to go back and resign from the restaurant where I work."
"Okay, let's go then." Luffy also stood up and said to Sanji: "Thank you for the hospitality, I'll leave it to you Takeda."
"Oh, no problem." Sanji replied, "See you tomorrow morning~Nami-san~"
"Ok, bye."
------
When Wu Sheng came out, Luffy and the two had already left, and Sanji said to him.
He started a new working life.
However, he was not asked to deal with complicated matters on the first day.
First, he helped Kyono, the lobby manager, place tableware, plates and decorative flowers.
Then it was time to wash vegetables in the back kitchen, and everyone had a quick snack to fill their stomachs before opening. It was already almost 6 o'clock.
The first batch of reservation customers arrived at about 6:40. Kyono and Renzi gathered everyone together before opening and formally introduced Takeda to everyone: "This is our new partner, Takeda Asahi, and Sanji We are all freshmen in high school, so you should take good care of your children."
"Hello everyone, my name is Takeda Asahi. I will be working in the store during the next period of time. I can do anything. If you need any help, please feel free to call me. Please take care of me in the future." Wu Sheng He bowed to the members of the store.
Ah, there are really many etiquettes like this in Japan, but thanks to this kind of etiquette, when people first get to know each other and go through a set of procedures, everyone feels less strange, right? Wu Sheng thought as he nodded to the welcoming applause of his new work partners.
"Okay, there are new forces joining today! Let's go all out today to provide the best dishes and services to our guests!"
“D’accord chef!” (Okay, chef)
......
In his previous life, Wu Sheng always heard from students studying in Japan that working was a basic part of life for Japanese students.
There are always legends about dishwashing by foreign students who traveled across the ocean.
He always wonders, where are there so many dish washers? From opening to closing? Washing the dishes can also erase the history of blood and tears? Too exaggerated?
Now it was his turn to participate, and he realized that there were really many plates of Western food!
French cuisine is world-famous for its complicated processes, exquisite portions, and ultimate taste. No matter how complicated it is, it can't compare to the Manchu-Han banquet that takes three days and six meals to finish in Chinese cuisine.
But the Manchu-Han banquet is for a group of people, while the French set meal is for one person.
Among them, those that are appetizers, those that go with wine, those that connect the past and the next, those that fill the stomach, those that finish the meal, and the desserts after the meal. After a set, you will be just 6 or 7 minutes full.
No matter what kind of exercise you do after meals, it won't affect you, and there will be no hiccups or anything like that. It's just right.
And "Grand Maison Tokyo", a French restaurant, actually serves full meals.
The full meal is a set meal recommended by the restaurant's chef. There is no a la carte, and the guest has no choice except drinks.
If you want to eat, you have to eat the whole thing.
The "Grand Maison Tokyo" set menu includes a total of ten dishes including appetizers!
With one plate for each dish, one customer will use 10 plates, and 2 means 20 plates. There can be about 20 guests in one round, and 200 plates to be washed can be produced in one round.
This is because this store is a super boutique store and consciously limits the number of customers it accepts, only accepting two rounds of customers every night.
As for those large Western restaurants, the table turnover rate is extremely high every day, and Wu Sheng simply cannot imagine the number of plates produced every day.
Based on the full capacity tonight, there will be about 400 plates. If one is washed manually every minute, it will take 7 hours of continuous washing!
Fortunately, with the progress of the times, fashionable tools like dishwashers have already entered high-end restaurants.
So Wu Sheng's job is actually to collect the plates, put them in the dishwasher, take them out, and put them back to their original locations so that the chefs can use them whenever they want.
But putting 400 plates back and forth took up a lot of his time.
In addition to washing vegetables and other things, one night turned out to be extremely fulfilling!
After sending away the last batch of guests, Wu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and threw the last batch of dishes into the dishwasher.
"Okay, little brother!" A young lady named Song Jing Moe ran over and Wu Sheng observed. She was in charge of making snacks.
"You're awesome! I can't tell you it's your first day at work!" She patted Wu Sheng on the shoulder.
"Sanji! The guy you introduced is so awesome! I was very comfortable cooking tonight! When each dish is about to be finished, there are always a sufficient number of corresponding plates at my hand." Sous Chef Ohana said. While cleaning up the kitchen, he praised Sanji, "My efficiency has increased by about 10% today?"
"Yeah, I used to have to find the plates by myself when the business was half way. It was so annoying." The young lady continued to pat Wu Sheng on the shoulder to express her greatest praise.
With a height of just over 1 meters, her senior posture is a bit funny: "Although the 5 types of plates in our store look similar, the actual sizes are different, and the dishes served are also different, but I paid attention tonight. You didn’t put any of them wrong!”
"You can still tell the difference if you look carefully." Wu Sheng smiled carelessly.
No joke, his brain is filled with all kinds of information every second now. All the information he has read, heard, and seen is waiting to be called in order.
So just handing over the plate after washing it is nothing to him.
"Awesome!" Chef Lunzi also ran over and praised Wu Sheng, "Passing the plates can actually improve the chef's efficiency!"
"Perhaps the search for plates while cooking interrupted the flow of cooking, right?" Wu Sheng thought for a while and speculated: "It was fine at the beginning, but when the plates were used up in the first round, everyone's cooking process changed. Will you be disturbed by taking the plate?”
"You have just arrived and you already know who is in charge of which dish?" Mr. Xiangze was also shocked.
"You'll know if you observe it carefully. There are only ten dishes in total." Wu Sheng didn't think it was a big deal. Isn't it just an assembly line for passing plates?
"Ah, I really wish Serita was here to listen." Matsukage Moe complained.
"Moe!" Chef Renzi glared at her to silence her.
"Okay, Takeda-kun, you have worked really hard today. Let us clean up the rest here. You have to go to class tomorrow, so go back early."
"I've finished washing the last batch of dishes, and there's another batch in the dishwasher." Wu Sheng looked at the dishwasher.
"Okay, we also need to clean up the kitchen. Let's talk about anything tomorrow." Upon seeing this, Chef Renzi smiled gently and walked away, obviously very satisfied with this little guy.
At this time, Sanji came over and patted Wu Sheng on the shoulder: "Not bad, Takeda, you are worthy of being recognized by Nami-san. With your adaption speed, is this really your first time working out?"
"Ah, yes." Wu Sheng replied while staring at the dishwasher. Suddenly something occurred to him. He turned back to Sanji and said, "Okay, I originally thought you were an apprentice or something, but I didn't expect you to be responsible for a dish." Already?"
"No, Sanji is my proud apprentice, hahahaha!" Sous Chef Ohana appeared from the side and hugged Sanji's shoulders.
"Tsk, they're all elderly men. Don't hug her. You're not a pretty girl." Sanji shook off the sous chef's hand in disgust.
"..." Are middle-aged people shameless? Sous Chef Obana thought to herself that she would give this eyebrow curler twice as much work tomorrow!
At this time, the lobby manager Kyōno came over with an envelope and handed it to Wu Sheng, "This is tonight's salary. I have to say, you surprised me. The guests in the second round today all said that today's dishes tasted delicious." promoted.
I thought it was Chef Renzi who was in great condition, but I didn't expect it was because of you. "
"Well, I didn't expect it... isn't this a routine operation?" Wu Sheng took the envelope and politely did not open it.
"Hahahaha, it will become a regular operation in the future!" Sous Chef Ohana laughed loudly.
......
"How was it?" Sanji and Wu Sheng walked out of the store together. The others were still busy in the store, with no intention of getting off work.
"How about what?" Wu Shengqi asked.
"How does it feel to work part-time?" Sanji slapped him with his shoulder.
Wu Sheng glanced at him sideways and said in a mocking tone: "Ah, can washing the dishes still bring out any insights?"
"I mean, what do you think of the people in the store?" Sanji said with a dark look on his face. Don't you know what I mean?
"Not bad, I feel like they are all good people."
"They are all geniuses. They are all chefs with their own beliefs. Do you know how lucky you are to be able to work in this store?"
"I've never tasted their food, how do I know? It's just the first day I met them, Sanji-san."
"Okay, I'll let you see their strength tomorrow!"
"Okay, how do you go back?"
"Metro, what about you?"
"Let's go together then, I'm also on the subway."
"Let's go then."
------
It was almost 10: when he got home. Wu Sheng lay on the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief. He opened the envelope and found a total of yen. This income was already comparable to that of a full-time convenience store attendant.
Put the money aside, light up the phone, open LINE, and found a message from Nami in the small group group.
【Crime Pirates】
Orange Kitten: How was Takeda's part-time job today?
Takeru: It went very well. The hourly salary is 2000 yen, yen a day.

Takeru: Don’t think about it. This restaurant costs 25000 yen per person.

The target is Juggernaut: Takeda, you come back so late, what about your school homework?

......
Zoro was sitting at his desk, looking at his half-finished homework, and was typing to persuade Wu Sheng that it was still important to study: If you do this, your test scores will be in trouble...
No, this bastard’s memory has been enhanced!
