my boyfriend is a chef

Chapter 42 Cooperation

Xi Chuan was stunned when he heard it, what kind of operation is this?He hurriedly grabbed the other party and asked: "Comrade, please wait a moment. Even if the fire inspection fails, we can fix it. Why did you close our shop?"

The other party looked at Xi Chuan indifferently, and said seriously: "If the firefighting is not up to standard, of course we have to close down and suspend business for rectification. Should we wait for an accident to rectify? According to the first item of Article 60 of the "Fire Protection Law of the People's Republic of China", If the configuration and setting of fire-fighting facilities, equipment or fire-fighting safety signs of the unit do not conform to national standards or industry standards, or are not kept in good condition and effective, they shall be ordered to make corrections and imposed a fine of not less than 5000 yuan but not more than 5 yuan. We checked just now, and you have violated There are many regulations, and once a fire occurs, the consequences will be very serious. Therefore, a fine of 2 yuan will be imposed." He took out the penalty notice and began to issue fines.

When Xi Chuan heard this, his heart turned cold, and he was fined [-] yuan!His throat slid with difficulty: "Twenty thousand? Would it be too much, didn't you say five thousand?"

The other party looked at him with a sarcastic look in his eyes: "It's [-] to [-]. I haven't issued a [-] fine yet. Take the fine and go to the bank to pay the fine. The wiring in the store needs to be reinstalled. The gas tanks of some hotpot tables are not up to standard, and the fire-fighting equipment has to be bought again, and the shop can only reopen after the fire-fighting inspection passes."

Xi Chuan clenched his hands into fists, and tried his best to control his temper: "A year ago, my store had a fire inspection, and it was not unqualified."

The other party nodded and said: "Yes, it was qualified in the past, but it does not mean that it is qualified now. The gas tanks of the line will be aging, otherwise why would we come to check once a month?" The other party turned around and walked away.

Zhu Xiaohui asked Xi Chuan worriedly: "Brother Xiao Chuan, what should we do? Is the store still open today?"

Xi Chuan kicked the chair angrily, took out his mobile phone and wanted to call Sun Youchen, but felt that it was useless, after thinking about it, he turned to the phone number of the former store manager of Xiaoyayuan, and asked him how to do this kind of thing, Zhang The store manager is the head of a store, and he knows all the big and small things in the store. He should have encountered similar situations.After listening to Xi Chuan's situation, store manager Zhang pondered for a while: "The first time the fine is [-] yuan, you are still a food stall, and this punishment is a bit heavy. Generally speaking, the first time is a verbal warning, not If you are serious about it, even if it is a fine, it is generally the minimum standard. You talk to the inspector, buy some good cigarettes, and ask him to accommodate you."

Xi Chuan sighed and said: "It's useless. I didn't have time to say anything. They closed my shop and issued a ticket. There was no room for it. Now everyone is gone." Knowing the way of the world, he didn't lower his stance and confess his mistake to the other party. After thinking about it carefully, he had no chance to say that he couldn't help but close the store and issue a ticket.

Store manager Zhang said: "Well, that's really unreasonable. Normally, the punishment won't be so heavy for the first time. But the power is in their hands. If they really violate the rules, they have the final say on how to punish them. After all, we are also acting in accordance with the rules and regulations, and there is nothing we can do about it.”

Xi Chuan knew what the manager Zhang said was true: "What I can't figure out is that the previous inspection was all right, especially the wiring. How long has it been? How could it be aging?"

Store Manager Zhang pondered for a while: "This is indeed a bit strange. Could it be that someone offended someone, and someone deliberately tried to punish you?"

When Xi Chuan heard this, he suddenly remembered the matter of Wang Guangxu stealing the recipe years ago. Could it be that he was taking revenge on himself?But Wang Guangxu has such great ability, can he command people who can conduct fire inspections?Although he was not sure, Xi Chuan still told the store manager about it.Store manager Zhang said: "It's also possible. There were a lot of troubles in Xiaoyayuan in December last year, and it became a joke in the industry. Liu Hecheng removed Wang Guangxu as the head chef, and now he is just the store manager. He didn't steal When I got the menu, I lost my job as the head chef, so I must have a grudge against you and want to find an opportunity to take revenge on you."

Xi Chuan was very angry: "What a fucking villain! But what should I do? Do I really need to pay a fine of 2 yuan?" Not bad, don't expect to make money at all, if you pay the fine, you have to lose money.

The store manager Zhang said: "Look around, see if there is anyone you know who can talk to you, who can help you withdraw that ticket, or reduce the amount of the fine. As for rectification, then make rectification as required, and delay the business. There’s no way, we can’t leave someone to blame. It’s never easy to open a restaurant, and you’re involved in all kinds of mundane things, not just cooking well.”

Xi Chuan has a deep understanding of these words. In the past, he only needed to concentrate on cooking in the kitchen. Now that he is the owner of a shop, he has to deal with such issues as grocery shopping, cost saving, employee management, and handling various complaints from customers. It is simply a mess. , Now I have to deal with the people in the relevant departments, which is simply annoying.At this time, he especially hoped that Sun Youchen was in the store. When Sun Youchen was there, he only needed to buy vegetables and take care of the kitchen, and Sun Youchen could take care of other things.

Xi Chuan used to think that Sun Youchen was a naive child who was ignorant of worldly affairs and needed someone to take care of him. Over the past year, Sun Youchen’s growth and changes have been astonishing. He has been able to make decisions quickly and learn to deal with customers. He also learned to manage the shop assistants. When he was in the shop, Xi Chuan was indeed much more relaxed.Unknowingly, Xi Chuan has already relied on Sun Youchen in some aspects.

Xi Chuan originally wanted to ask Store Manager Zhang if he knew any acquaintances, but he couldn't help, so he had to figure out his own way.But Xi Chuan himself didn't know anyone who could talk, so after much deliberation, he still called Sun Youchen to discuss it, Sun Youchen just finished class, and when he received a call from Xi Chuan, he was also shocked: "How could this happen? Every fire inspection before has passed, and the fire extinguisher has only been purchased for less than a year, so it should not be expired.” There may be problems with the gas tanks, because they are all aging gas tanks sent by the gas station and are about to be retired.

Xi Chuan said: "I think so too, but the ticket has already been issued. Brother Zhang suggested that I find an acquaintance to find a way to see if the fine can be reduced, but I don't know anyone."

Sun Youchen thought for a while, and said, "Why don't I try and see if I can find someone." His father knew a lot of friends when he opened the store before, and he had met some, but there were not many who had contact information, but he insisted. If you want to contact, you can still contact a few.It's just that he doesn't usually contact people very much, and he only calls when he needs to ask for help at this moment, which probably doesn't have much effect.Sure enough, he repeatedly called and contacted several people, but those who were willing to help were unable to help, and those who could help were unwilling. This incident taught Sun Youchen a lesson: how important it is to maintain interpersonal relationships.

Sun Youchen worked hard for half the morning and didn't even attend English class. In the end, he still couldn't find a solution. Finally, he called Xi Chuan and said, "Brother, I didn't find anyone to help."

Xi Chuan sighed: "Let's forget about it, [-] is [-], and I happen to have some money. After paying the fine, find someone to rewire the line, so that the store can open as soon as possible."

Sun Youchen said with little hope: "Why don't you call Shao Kuan and see if he can help us?"

"Shao Kuan?" Xi Chuan never thought of looking for Shao Kuan, after all, he was just a guest, but when Sun Youchen mentioned it, he remembered that there were many people from relevant departments when Shao Kuan invited guests to dinner last time, he should be What can help is that I don't know him very well, will he be willing to help?

Sun Youchen said: "He must be able to help us, it just depends on whether he is willing to help."

Xi Chuan licked his dry lips and said, "Let me try." Xi Chuan called Shao Kuan nervously, but Shao Kuan didn't answer his call, Xi Chuan sighed and decided to pay the fine.

Just when he was about to go to the bank, Shao Kuan called, saying that he was in a meeting just now and it was not convenient to answer the phone, and asked Xi Chuan what's the matter, Xi Chuan told him about his own affairs, Shao Kuan smiled Said: "This is a small matter, let me ask for you."

Xi Chuan didn't expect it to go so smoothly, thank you very much, Shao Kuan said: "You're welcome, I really want to thank me, and then help me cook a meal."

Xi Chuan hastily agreed, he is the best at cooking, let alone one meal, he is willing to eat several meals.

In the afternoon of the same day, Shao Kuan called Xi Chuan and asked him to take the fine slip to the police station for security to change the fine slip. Because the fine slip has already been issued, it cannot be invalidated and can only be changed to a minimum amount of [-].Although there was still a fine, but it was [-] less, Xi Chuan was very grateful. He hurried to change the fine, and then went to the bank to pay the [-] fine, and under the guidance of the security staff, he took the time to rectify the line. Replace the old gas tanks in the gas hot pot table, etc.

Because of the rectification, the store was forced to close for three days, and did not reopen until it passed the inspection. The loss this time was not small, not to mention the fine, and it cost a lot of money to buy new equipment, which delayed business for three days. The ingredients can’t be stored for a long time. Fortunately, the business is light and the purchases are relatively small. They don’t pile up like a mountain. They can’t finish the food by themselves. Both Xi Chuan and Sun Youchen called their friends and classmates to eat, and they managed to clean up all the ingredients. Yes, the whole body smells like hot pot.All in all, the loss was at least tens of thousands of yuan.

After reopening, Sun Youchen and Xi Chuan launched a discount activity. There was no way, the business in the store was light at first, but now that the store is closed, there will be fewer customers. If the lost popularity is not brought back, the business will be greatly reduced in the future.

Of course, Sun Youchen’s classmates didn’t eat for nothing. They all worked hard to promote Sun Youchen’s Chuan Chuan shop in class, courtyard and even school. They also designed a leaflet with the address and discount clearly written. Dorm by dormitory to distribute leaflets for publicity, let everyone go to eat skewers.The girls in the class were also helping Sun Youchen to publicize. Su Wenwen was very active and distributed the leaflets to several girls' dormitory buildings, which made Sun Youchen feel very sorry.

For office workers, their wallets will be very empty after the Chinese New Year, but for the student party, it is the time when they are the richest after the New Year. The red envelopes given by the elders and the living expenses given by the family are all in their hands. A fairy life with no worries about food and clothing.In addition, I just came from eating big fish and meat at home, and went to the cafeteria at school. The gap can be imagined. As soon as the Chuan Chuan shop is advertised, there are discounts. There are quite a few people who go there. After eating, it is unexpectedly good. Help publicize, so that the popularity of the store has risen sharply, with at least [-]% of the attendance rate every day.It's just that it's still in the discount period, and there is no profit, and it can only maintain a balance of payments.However, Xi Chuan and Sun Youchen are already very satisfied with this effect, and it will be fine after this period of time is over.

After finally getting through March, the off-season of the catering industry has gradually passed, and more people are dining out.Because the discount activity lasted until the end of March, the popularity has been maintained. After April, the business of the Chuan Chuan shop also improved.March is always a loss, after all, there was an extra fine of 5000 yuan.But you can't just look at it for a while when doing business. You have to look at it in the long run. If you make money as a whole, that is the real money.

Xi Chuan always remembered the meal owed to Shao Kuan, but Shao Kuan didn't mention it to Xi Chuan for a long time, and Xi Chuan just kept waiting.It wasn't until May, after the May Day holiday, that Shao Kuan asked Xi Chuan to cook him a meal. This meal was for Shao Kuan's partners. It was high-end Sichuan cuisine, including boiled cabbage.

After Xi Chuan finished cooking, Shao Kuan asked someone to come over and ask him to sit at the table. After Xi Chuan came, Shao Kuan introduced him to four or five people present with a smile, and said, "This is Master Xi Chuan Xi. Today's dishes are all He did."

Xi Chuan politely nodded and greeted everyone: "I don't know how many of you are satisfied with your meal?"

An old man nodded and said, "I'm quite satisfied. I just want to ask Master Xi, are you interested in opening a restaurant?"
