Siheyuan: He Yuzhu's rebirth in the 21st century

The next morning.

He Yuzhu and his three companions arrived at Baocheng Commercial Bureau early to meet the director.

"Director Wen, this is the list of personnel needed for the branch. Please recruit them as soon as possible!"

"By the way, it would be best if we could arrange for thirty young chefs to go to the Sijiucheng main store for training next Monday."

He Yuzhu informed Director Wen of everything needed to open a branch.

"It's not a problem at all! Secretary Li, Director He, you have helped our bureau a lot by adding so many new positions!"

Director Wen glanced at the list.

“保卫科10人、服务科40人，采购科5人、后厨厨师30人、打杂40人……”

More than one hundred new positions were added at once!

"Okay! Director Wen, we have other tasks to do next, so I'll leave the Baocheng branch to you!"

The trio did not dare to waste time. After saying goodbye to Director Wen, they drove to Langcheng.

……

Director Fan of the Langfang Commercial Bureau is very cooperative!

He had already chosen the location of the shop before the others arrived.

Of course, it’s not like he hasn’t thought about opening his own buffet restaurant!

But opening a restaurant requires a lot of investment and is very troublesome...

If it fails, who will take the responsibility?

So I gave up the idea.

It’s better to cooperate and gain good popularity.

However, when he heard Li He say that the buffet restaurant could give a 10% stake to the Commercial Bureau, he couldn't help but be extremely satisfied!

A 10% stake may not sound like much, but what if the annual turnover is 20 million?!

"Secretary Li, Director He, this shop is divided into two floors, each floor is about 760 square meters, and it is located in the most prosperous commercial street in our Langcheng..."

"We have found a small warehouse, less than two kilometers away from here..."

Director Fan personally brought the three people to visit the shop.

After getting He Yuzhu's nod of confirmation, Li He decisively handed the Yuan to him.

At this point, all the 80,000 yuan I brought with me has been spent.

"Director Fan, this money is used for shop renovation, furniture making, food purchases, etc."

"Other things can be done a little slower, but please hurry up and recruit a chef!"

"If conditions permit, I hope you can arrange for thirty young chefs to go to the Sijiucheng headquarters for training next Monday~"

Director Fan almost drooled as he looked at the list of personnel requirements.

He patted his chest and promised:

"Secretary Li, Director He, don't worry. On the day I received the telegram, we had already assigned someone to take charge of this matter!"

Li He and He Yuzhu smiled at each other when they heard this.

Three branches are basically done!

Although next Monday young chefs from Shicheng, Baocheng and Langcheng will gather at the Sijiucheng headquarters, it will bring them considerable pressure.

But about a hundred people can still accept it!

This can save a lot of time!

The trio then went to look at the small warehouse...

In fact, there is no need to look at it, but He Yuzhu needs to set up an anchor point for the nourishing space.

I went around for other reasons.

By the time they finished their work, it was almost dark.

I can only stay in Langcheng to rest for one night...

Seeing that tomorrow was Thursday, Li He suggested not returning to Sijiu City but going directly to Tianjin from Langcheng.

He Yuzhu had no objection and immediately borrowed the telegraph machine of the Langcheng Commercial Bureau to send a telegram to the Red Star Restaurant in Sijiu City.

"1. Arrange for all training personnel in Tianjin to return to Tianjin early tomorrow morning;"

"Second, let Yu Li, Liu Changhong, Ma Hua, Jie Ba, Ma Gan'er, Da Ge'er, and Li Da Zui go to Tianjin together."

He thought that Tianjin was a new store after all, so he needed to send a few people to support the business.

With Sister Fen in the front hall of the main store, He Daqing in the back kitchen, and apprentices like Nan Yi, Liu Lan, and Zhang San watching over them, nothing should go wrong!

Silent all night.

The next day the trio woke up early.

After saying goodbye to Director Fan of the Langcheng Commercial Bureau, they went straight to the Tianjin branch.

The distance between the two cities is not too far, only about 100 kilometers.

Lao Zhao stepped on the accelerator and arrived at the door of the Tianjin branch in just over an hour.

The shop was now completely new and very different from the last time they came!

Both the exterior and interior of the store have been repainted.

In addition, a full set of hardware facilities including tables, chairs, benches, counters, three-tier dining tables, and kitchen stoves have also been installed.

It can be said that the hardware facilities are basically complete!

This gave He Yuzhu and Li He more confidence in the opening on Sunday!

……

Soon, several cars pulled up to the door of the branch.

It was Yu Li and others who came from Sijiu City.

"Xiao Li, you guys came pretty fast~"

He Yuzhu hadn't seen her for a few days and missed her very much. He especially wanted to give her a big hug.

But I felt embarrassed to do it in public, so I had to give up.

"Yeah~Brother Zhu, Sijiu City is not too far from Tianjin~"

Yu Li also wanted to take He Yuzhu aside and talk to him about her true feelings.

But she knew she would be very busy next time, so she didn't plan to waste time...

He Yuzhu originally wanted to start dividing the work among everyone, but he didn't expect several more cars to arrive.

Li He saw the leading car and rushed to meet it.

"Uncle Fang, you are here."

It turned out that Director Fang knew they were coming today, so he sent other employees here specially:

The 50 waiters were all young women in their twenties, not particularly pretty, but at least presentable;

40 kitchen staff, half male and half female...

20 security guards, all of them are just retired soldiers...

5 purchasing staff...

"Xiaohe, Zhuzi, I have all the staff. Do you think we can open the business as scheduled this Sunday?"

"I'm not worried about other departments. Time is so tight, the taste of the food must be up to standard!"

Director Fang looked at the two of them and asked.

The meaning is obvious!

If you think it is not enough to open the business now, you might as well delay it for a few days.

Li and Jimao didn't understand and looked at He Yuzhu...

"Uncle Fang, I don't think there is any problem!"

"Thirty young chefs have already practiced one or two specialties according to the model of the Sijiucheng main store. This is enough for the opening the day after tomorrow!"

He Yuzhu replied with a firm face.

He was determined not to default on his payment like a certain company did in later generations...

"Okay! Then I'll arrange for someone to put it in the newspaper!"

"We have arranged to publish newspapers such as the Tianjin Daily and the Evening News, which will definitely give the restaurant enough publicity!"

Director Fang nodded heavily and said.

"Hehe~ Uncle Fang, just watch!"

"Brother He, I trust you to do the job!"

Li He echoed from the side!

"Fortunately, the pillars are here, otherwise I would not be able to trust you alone!"

"I have a meeting soon so I have to leave first, you guys go ahead and do your work!"

After Director Fang finished speaking, he nodded to the two of them and left.

"Yu Li, take Feng Mo with you to train 50 waiters;"

"Liu Changhong, Li Dazui, you will continue to train the chefs according to the model of the main restaurant;"

"Ma Hua, Jie Ba, Ma Gan'er, Da Ge, you train 40 odd jobs;"

"Old Zhao, you and Zhang Shan lead the security personnel..."

After He Yuzhu finished assigning tasks to everyone, he called Shen Xing, the head of the Future Purchasing Department of the Tianjin Branch, and said:

"Shen Xing, come here, I'll give you a task!"
