Chapter 273
Post it first, I'm revising it, if there are typos, don't complain about me...
The lobby was quite lively just now, but soon only Meng Haisheng and Lu Xiangyang were left.
Lu Xiangyang looked pale and looked at Meng Haisheng with a little embarrassment.
"Boss Meng, is what you just said true? Are you also going to use your relatives to work in the restaurant?"
Meng Haisheng laughed.
"My sister is still a high school student, she can't come to Beijing to work as a cashier for me."
"That's just a stopgap measure. Otherwise, it's not easy to get so many people to leave honestly."
Seeing Meng Haisheng laughing like an old fox, Lu Xiangyang also laughed.
"I see"
"Manager Lu, take us to the kitchen. Let's let Chef Ming show us his cooking skills at noon today."
"There is only one stove in the kitchen, but it is enough for Chef Ming."
Although there is no cooking in the teahouse, there are simple meals, and open flames are occasionally used.
The group came to the kitchen. Except that it was a little smaller than the hotel's kitchen, everything else was available.
Ming Shijie changed into a chef's uniform and checked the kitchen utensils he would use.
"There are quite a lot of things here, so let me show you my skills."
He Dong helped Ming Shijie, and the two worked together to cook very quickly.
Meng Haisheng only saw Ming Shijie next to him, with the knife in his hand flying on the chopping board. It didn't take long for the vegetables and meat to be used to be processed.
At this time, Meng Haisheng finally understood why only two of Ming Shijie's knives had heavy marks of use.
That broad knife had almost never left Ming Shijie's hand.
All dishes were processed with this knife.
And the small knife was used for carving. A dish should not only taste good, but also look beautiful.
So various carvings are indispensable.
In just one and a half hours, six dishes and two soups were served on the table.
"Boss Meng, please try it first."
Ming Shijie looked at his masterpiece with a proud look on his face.
Yesterday, Meng Haisheng saw his unbearable side, and today he must get back at him.
"Are all these Shandong dishes?"
"Yes, there are more people in Beijing who like Shandong dishes."
"What about Sichuan dishes? For example, spicy rabbit head and cold rabbit?"
When Meng Haisheng asked this, Ming Shijie's eyes lit up.
"Boss Meng, do you like this too?"
"No, I raise rabbits. It would be great if my restaurant could eat dozens of rabbits a day in the future."
"When I was learning cooking from my master, I naturally learned Sichuan cuisine. However, there are few people who eat Sichuan cuisine in Beijing, and many eat Shandong cuisine. I am showing off my Shandong cuisine skills."
"But I personally like spicy rabbit head very much."
Ming Shijie laughed.
Spicy rabbit head is a niche dish. When his master taught him, he made it once. Ming Shijie fell in love with it after eating it.
I didn't expect to meet someone who likes it as much as I do now.
"Go back and try making it. If you are used to eating Shandong cuisine every day, it is also very good to change to something heavier occasionally."
Meng Haisheng took the serving chopsticks and tasted the six dishes on the table one by one.
Sure enough, the taste was as delicious as what he had eaten in Ming Shijie's private restaurant in his previous life.
"Chef Ming, you should quickly organize the kitchen. You should add a few stoves, recruit a few more chefs and apprentices. Let's all get started."
"Within two days, I will host a banquet for the big guys in my restaurant."
A plan has been lingering in Meng Haisheng's mind for a long time.
Since Meng Changyue will fly abroad tomorrow, he must implement this plan as quickly as possible.
"Ah, so anxious?"
"Chef Ming, the time to test you has come. Do you dare to accept this challenge?"
Ming Shijie frowned slightly and was silent for a moment.
"I will accept it. Don't think that I, Ming Shijie, was so miserable yesterday. Today, I am different from yesterday. I don't know who dares to look down on me."
Meng Haisheng laughed at Ming Shijie's serious look.
This is the vitality that young people should have.
The kitchen was handed over to Ming Shijie, and Meng Haisheng took Lu Xiangyang around the teahouse.
"Although the restaurant I opened is in the same style as a teahouse, it should still look like a restaurant."
"Single rooms are not suitable for these hollow walls. They need to be sealed with wood and soundproofed. No one can hear what is said next door."
"That's easy. Just add soundproofing materials to the empty walls."
"All the waiters here need to be re-hired.Can you handle this in two days?"
"Boss Meng, don't worry. I have a lot of experience in this area."
"Okay, if you need me, just tell me and I'll run with you."
"Then I won't be polite."
In order to let Meng Haisheng see his ability, Lu Xiangyang was really not polite to him.
Meng Haisheng had a car, and the two of them ran all over Beijing.
He went to find the decorator to start work overnight, and then went to find a familiar foreman and poached people from other hotels.
"Manager Lu, you are great. It's only been a short while, and you have already dealt with all the waiters."
Lu Xiangyang smiled embarrassedly.
"I have been in this industry for so many years, so I still have some connections."
After running around all day, Meng Haisheng was about to go back to the Lin family when he remembered the warehouse that Jiang Ruyi gave him for free.
"Manager Lu, Boss Jiang said he gave me a warehouse for free. It's just behind the teahouse. Do you know the exact location? "
"I know. I'll take you there."
Dongfu Street is magnificent, but behind this splendor is a mess of low-rise houses.
You can still vaguely see the appearance of the former courtyard house, but it has lost its shape due to random construction.
And the warehouse that Jiang Ruyi gave to Meng Haisheng stands out among them.
The warehouse is not small, it is as high as two floors.
And it looks quite solid, but it has been a few years, and the wall paint has fallen off a lot.
"This place used to be used by the military. Later, I don't know how it was distributed to the people, and then it was passed to Boss Jiang."
"There is actually no use for such a warehouse here. Sometimes I put some sundries from the teahouse, and most of the time it is empty. "
The mottled iron door was opened, and Meng Haisheng measured it with his steps.
It is about 25 meters long and 10 meters wide. This warehouse is quite large.
If we really need to repair TVs here in the future, we can just build another floor on top and live there.
"Okay, you can use it as a warehouse for now, and I'll tell you when I need it later."
Meng Haisheng wasted some time here. When he returned to the Lin family, it was a little late, and Lin Jiangchun had already returned.
"Dad."
"Haisheng is back, come and sit down, we are happy today and we can have a drink together."
