Chapter 43 The Troubled Female President
Xia Zichen looked at the running water on the table for nearly three months, and frowned.

Rongxiang Seafood Hotel, as the top high-end restaurant in the capital of Nanhai Province, since three or four months ago, its turnover has been falling like a waterfall, falling nearly 50.00%, and there is no trace of bottoming out signs of backlash.

Xia Zichen stroked his temples with his hands, and looked out the window.

Three or four months ago, her father had a car accident. As the only child in the family, she took on the operation of the hotel without hesitation.

Because of her status as a woman, many members of the family were unconvinced, and secretly engaged in some small tricks. Outside competitors also took advantage of his illness to kill him, and successively poached many chefs away.

These, as she expected, dismissed the thorns, stabilized the old employees, and gave them both kindness and power, which was considered to be stable.

But who would have thought that the suppliers who have cooperated with each other for more than ten years will throw themselves into the arms of competitors without hesitation after the contract expires.

The previous factors are important but not fatal.

Without suppliers, without those good products, no matter how good a chef is, it’s useless. After all, as the saying goes, it’s hard for a smart woman to cook without rice?

Thinking of this, Xia Zichen was devastated. Could it be that the restaurant that has been passed down for nearly a hundred years is going to be buried in his own hands?

"Boom, boom, boom."

Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Xia Zichen sat upright, with a smile on his pretty face.

She knows better than anyone else that, as the backbone of the restaurant, if even she shows a worried and powerless expression, the restaurant will really collapse.

With a click, a young woman wearing an OL uniform walked in on high heels.

"Mr. Xia, this is the supplier I just found online, why don't you take a look?"

"Let me see."

Xia Zichen took the folder and looked at ten lines at a glance.

After watching it for a minute or two, he couldn't help shaking his head, and said, "Xiaoyuan, it's not that these suppliers are bad, but our restaurant is positioned as a high-end crowd, so it's definitely not good to say that this big yellow croaker is only three taels a piece."

"Large lobsters are so-so, each can only weigh half a catty, but the number is too small."

"This one won't work either, it's too small."

"This is false propaganda at first glance."

Tang Yuan's excited little face immediately froze, and his mouth drooped.

"All right."

Xia Zichen chuckled, took Tang Yuan's hand, and comforted him: "I didn't mean to target you. Besides, top suppliers are so easy to find, right?"

"But…"

Tang Yuan's eyes turned red, "If this continues, our restaurant will... When I just came here, I heard a few managers whispering where to go for interviews?"

"It's normal to be warm and cold."

Getting used to seeing the faces of his family and relatives, Xia Zichen's disposition is much better than before.

Suddenly, there was a vibrating sound from the mobile phone on the right.

Xia Zichen was startled, turned his head, and immediately frowned, reached out to answer the phone, and said with a smile: "Mr. Gu, why did you think of calling me in your busy schedule?"

"Hahaha, niece Zichen, what are you talking about?"

The hearty laughter of a middle-aged man came from the phone.

When Tang Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but clenched his fists tightly, wishing to blow the opponent's head open.

There is no other reason, it is this person who poached the top supplier of Rongxiang Restaurant with double the price.

"Mr. Gu, my time is limited, and everyone is very busy. If you have anything to say, just speak up."

Xia Zichen's tone was soft on the outside and firm on the inside.

"... "

The person on the phone was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "My niece is really quick to talk, so Uncle Gu, I will open the skylight and speak frankly."

"Rongxiang Restaurant's turnover has plummeted recently. You must be more aware of this than I am, and to put it bluntly, this may just be the beginning."

"You made this call just to mock me?"

Xia Zichen's eyes flashed coldly.

"no no."

Mr. Gu was still laughing and joking, not feeling guilty at all, "I think, with such a tone, you might as well sell the restaurant to me. I believe that when your father wakes up and learns what happened, he won't blame you."

"no need."

Xia Zichen flatly refused.

"Hehe, I'm not in a hurry, niece, think about it slowly, but the ugly words come first, if you drag it down, the price will be lower, hahahaha."

The phone hangs up.

"President Xia, this person is too deceitful!"

Tang Yuan was close, heard every word, and immediately said angrily: "In the beginning, he paid for the employees in the store to make trouble, and also paid for our chef to be poached, and finally he also snatched away the suppliers. Now, Now!"

"It's all normal business competition, there's nothing to say."

Xia Zichen put down his phone and waved his hand.

So far, it doesn't make any sense to talk about it.

"But!"

"Xiaoyuan, you go out first, I will be quiet."

"Ok."

Tang Yuan hesitated to speak, turned his head three times at a step, and walked out, carefully closing the door behind him.

As a good sister who has played since she was a child, she knows how difficult it is for her best friend, but she can't help at all.

"Dad, what should I do?"

Xia Zichen turned around and faced out the window, tears falling silently.

For more than three months, for more than three months, she got up early and stayed late, and slept less than four or five hours a day, and she was quite emaciated.

However, bad news came one after another, and things didn't seem to turn around at all?

Could it be that this big restaurant is going to be buried in my hands?
"Buzz, buzz."

After an unknown amount of time passed, the phone vibrated again.

Xia Zichen frowned, wondering why he called again?Even if you, Gu Tianming, are in power now, you don't have to be so aggressive, just push yourself forward, right?

Thinking about it this way, he took the phone and found out that it was an unfamiliar number, and the affiliation showed that it was also from Nanhai Province.

"Hey?"

As soon as the connection was connected, a young man's voice came from inside, "Excuse me, is this Ms. Xia?"

"It's me, are you?"

Xia Zichen's tone was soft.

"Hi, my name is Chen Fan. I'm from Nanhua County, Huahai City. I saw your recruitment information on the Internet, and I want to ask, what's the purchase price on your side?"

"So it is."

Xia Zichen understood, and had to say that this young man spoke very softly, so he should be a reliable person.

But like this kind of call, she received less than ten or eight calls a day, and none of them met the requirements. It's no wonder that, just like online job hunting, the real masters, how can they go for the resume and so on, they all rely on introductions of.

There are only a few truly top suppliers, and everyone in the circle knows them.

Although he didn't have any expectations, Xia Zichen still asked patiently: "You can rest assured about this. Our Rongxiang Restaurant is one of the best in Nanhai City, and the price will definitely not let you suffer. How about your goods?"
