I am doing well in the Siheyuan

During the renovation of the restaurant, both parties appeared calm on the surface and were considering their own plans.

The lazy cat now has a new competitor, so he naturally becomes more cautious.

Fortunately, Dashilan has a large passenger flow, and she did not intend to monopolize the market.

On the other hand, Banggeng also successfully contacted his friend who worked as a helper in the restaurant - Ma Quancai, a man with a horse face, who used to be a lazy person who ate and drank for free in the alley.

Through some unknown connection, Ma Quancai learned cooking for two years and later successfully got a job as a kitchen helper in a restaurant.

"You kid invited me to dinner, what's the point?"

Ma Quancai was not in a hurry to pick up his chopsticks, as he knew that Banggeng must have something to ask of him.

"It's been a while since we last met. There's no need to have so many excuses to treat a friend to a meal."

"Hey, that's new. I would believe what others said, but how could I not know what kind of person you are? If you are too nice to me, you are either a traitor or a thief. If you want my help, just tell me. If you want to borrow money, then don't even bother asking!"

After hearing this, Banggeng's face darkened and he looked very unhappy.

"I originally wanted to get you rich together, but my kindness was taken for granted. Now that things have come to this, just pretend I was never here today."

Having said that, Bang Geng stood up and was about to leave.

Ma Quancai hurriedly called him.

"Hey, don't leave in such a hurry. We were just joking, why did you take it seriously? What do you mean by taking me with you to get rich together?"

In this era, Beijing is full of opportunities.

Banggeng has never been a person who is content with the status quo since he was young.

It is precisely this kind of people who can seize opportunities and rise to prominence.

Rumor has it that Bang Geng wants to take him to make big money together, and Ma Quancai is secretly alert.

"How much can you earn per month working in that restaurant?"

"Our restaurant has one of the best salaries in the city. The chef earns 600 yuan a month, and the kitchen assistants earn between 80 and 120 yuan. Add in the attendance bonus, and I'll actually get about 100 yuan at the end of the month."

Seeing Ma Quancai showing a smug look, Bang Geng sneered.

"Are you satisfied with just a hundred dollars? Look at your ambition. Do you know who I work for now?"

"Who?"

"It's Boss Liu from Hong Kong. He's the real rich man. The newly opened Jin Changsheng across from your restaurant is owned by Boss Liu. The salaries of his employees are much higher than yours."

"Don't make me laugh. We're all doing the same job. How can the treatment be any better?"

"Hey, don't disbelieve me. Your chef earns 600 yuan a month, but we will give you 1,000 yuan. If you are willing to switch jobs and come to our restaurant, this amount will be no problem."

Bang Geng stretched out three fingers. Ma Quancai became restless when he heard this.

His eyes widened, full of doubt: "Can you really give me 300?"

"What benefit can I get from lying to you? As long as you can get all the kitchen helpers from your restaurant to come here, I can give you an extra commission of ten yuan for each person! And the wages of others can also be increased to two hundred and fifty yuan."

"Are you telling the truth?"

Ma Quancai couldn't resist the conditions offered by Bang Geng.

But he insisted on having a written receipt as proof, and Banggeng readily agreed, thinking that once the plan succeeded and Boss Liu was happy, the money would be a piece of cake.

Time passed quietly, and the Mid-Autumn Festival came in a blink of an eye.

After the market was opened, people’s living standards improved significantly, mooncakes were in short supply on the market, and supplies were much more abundant than a few years ago.

Many families with sufficient funds will take their families to a restaurant to enjoy a delicious meal.

Jinchangsheng Restaurant also opened grandly on this day, with a red carpet in front of the door and a bright red silk hanging on the plaque.

Uncle Liu invited many relatives and friends to come and support the new store. The dishes were half price when the new store opened, and customers came in an endless stream.

Qin Huairu and the newly hired waiters were busy. The restaurant was well prepared and every link operated smoothly without any mistakes.

However, a restaurant opposite encountered an emergency.

Although the popularity is not inferior to that of the restaurant opposite, the dishes ordered were delayed in arriving. Customers gradually lost their patience and the chef was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.

The lazy cat was so angry in the kitchen that his face turned red. The chef and a group of managers lowered their heads and didn't dare to breathe.

On the Dragon Boat Festival, the restaurant prepared for today's business for more than a month.

Unexpectedly, the kitchen helpers disappeared collectively, leaving behind only a few resignation letters and leaving without saying goodbye. They didn’t even ask for half a month’s salary. Now they can’t be contacted at all.

Little Lazy Cat never expected such a sudden change would happen. He could only appease the customers in the front hall with free cold dishes. But this is not a long-term solution after all. It is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution.

You have to know that restaurants are different from food stalls outside. The employees here are all carefully selected and have at least two years of experience working in the kitchen.

If staff were temporarily transferred from other branches, a round trip would take at least half an hour. The lazy cat did not dare to gamble with the restaurant's reputation on the patience of the customers.

Fortunately, it is noon now and the customer flow has not yet reached its peak, so the restaurant is at most full for one round.

If it is at night, there will be basically no vacancies after several rounds.

More importantly, most of these customers made reservations in advance and came here specifically to enjoy the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, and most of them are old customers.

Once we stand them up, not to mention the losses, the restaurant's reputation will be the first to suffer.

Even if the restaurant can be explained clearly and forgiven, its weak ability to handle problems cannot be concealed.

If this matter is not handled properly and competitors seize the opportunity, the business of other chain stores will inevitably be affected.

At this moment, the lazy cat is no longer the docile lazy cat, but like a cat that is cornered and may get angry at any time.

Faced with such a predicament, she had no choice but to call Ye Ming for help.

"Hello, I'm Ye Ming."

"Brother Ye, it's me, the lazy cat."

"Little lazy cat?"

Hearing the voice, Ye Ming raised his eyebrows slightly and quickly guessed what had happened.

"Is there something wrong with the restaurant?"

"how do you know?"

The lazy cat didn't have time to think about this problem and quickly stated the current problem.

"The kitchen helpers at Dashilan Restaurant disappeared en masse, leaving behind only a few resignation letters. Today is Mid-Autumn Festival..."

"Understood, I'll take someone there right away.

By the way, since the restaurant staff is missing, remember to call the police and ask Captain Zhao to tell them that Ye Ming invited him and his brothers from the bureau to have a meal at the restaurant. "

"Call the police? Not really. They left a letter of resignation. I think someone came after us on purpose."

Although the little lazy cat is not very experienced, her insight into this matter is not weak.

But she had not yet figured out the deeper meaning behind Ye Ming's decision to call the police.

“Hey, it’s precisely because they are deliberately provoking me that I want to call the police.

In the business world, people will do anything to get what they want, but since they are the ones who are provoking the dispute, how can we not respond? "
