Chapter 188: The restaurant opens
After the Qingming Festival, Gu Qingying began to prepare for the opening of the store, in addition to buying the items that should be used to open the store, he was also ready to find someone to try it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although she is very confident in her craft, it is reaffirmative that it will work better when the time comes.
And she has to invite some people back, and this sister-in-law Liang can help recommend a few people.
That night, she invited a few people from the Lin family and a few people from the Li family to dinner.
They were all sitting around a large table, waiting for the food to be served, and today they were going to let go of their bellies and have a good meal.
Gu Qingying is eating a whole fish feast today, plus some Hui special barbecue, the fish is locally farmed freshwater fish, the meat is tender, rich in protein and various vitamins, delicious and delicious.
Gu Qingying made eight different fish practices.
There are: grilled fish, boiled fish, sauerkraut fish, peacock fish, squirrel fish, carp jumping dragon gate, sweet and sour fish rolls, five-spice smoked white fish, and fried small crispy fish.
Sister-in-law Liang added two more special fish of the ancient town, braised fish from Heyuan and home-cooked crucian carp soup. It just happened to be perfect.
In addition, Gu Qingying made some more lamb skewers, roast lamb legs, roast chicken wings and roast chicken feet.
Her signature dish at the restaurant was grilled fish and barbecue.
The first one that comes out is the grilled fish.
Today she made a Sichuan-style spicy grilled fish, which was made by Gu Qingying after improving a few grilled fish in the master's recipe according to the tastes of the people here.
The fish is smooth and refreshing, and the sauce can be poured on top according to different tastes, and you can choose it when you eat it.
In this way, the fish tastes different, but the fish is really delicious.
As for the ingredients, such as vegetables, they are all made from farmhouse dishes grown by the villagers.
As soon as the grilled fish came out, a few old people who had not eaten it couldn't help but be curious: "This fish can still be eaten like this, it's really rare!" ”
"I've never eaten fish like this, it's delicious!" The mother-in-law of the Li family, who had eaten a bite of fish, couldn't help but say.
"It tastes so good! It's just a little numb! This is the taste of the Sichuan people! But I want to take another bite after eating. The mother-in-law of the Li family, who is not used to eating spicy food, said.
"Binzi, don't eat so fast, don't grab it! Leave me a little, it's gone! Liang's sister-in-law's daughter Meizi looked at her brother unhappily.
A three-and-a-half-pound grass carp looks quite big, but in fact, there are so many people that it doesn't feel like much when you eat it.
In less than ten minutes, only a skeleton was left of the fish, and even some of the side dishes inside were eaten clean.
After all the dishes were served one after another, all the people stopped talking and enjoyed the food quietly.
"Didi is really amazing, this cooking skill is so good, I didn't expect them Hui people to be so good at cooking!" Brother Lin was satisfied, and after drinking some liquor, his face was flushed, and he said with a smile.
"It's amazing, this, the improved taste is very suitable for our locals to eat!" Uncle Li praised.
"Huh!" Gu Qingying, who had just sat down, smiled shyly.
"We'll be blessed in the future!"
"It's going to open soon, and I haven't hired a lot of people yet! Is there anyone you can relate to? ”
"Alas, looking for someone, it's simple, my brother-in-law is an intermediary, I'll ask you about this tomorrow!"
"Good!"
"Do you see the plum line? Although I graduated from a technical school, I majored in finance and accounting, and it is still possible to be a cashier, and I know the roots and is reliable. ”
"Yes, as long as Meizi doesn't feel hard." Gu Qingying smiled.
"How can it be so hard? It's too late for her to be happy! yes, plum. ”
"Hmm." Meizi nodded hurriedly and helped Gu Qingying with things, not only with a salary, but also with delicious food.
"When will it open?"
"In another half a month, just find people and train them a little." Gu Qingying said.
"We're going to cheer when the time comes!"
"Always welcome."
"If we're free, we'll all help."
"If you don't have time, you can take time! I've eaten so many good dishes. ”
"That's, that's."

"Didi Food Hall!"
A few bronzing words shone in the sun, and at ten o'clock in the morning, at the gate of the restaurant, there were six aunts and little sisters.
They were all wearing red clothes and pants, and they were beating the waist drum, which was specially invited by Brother Lin to Gu Qingying, saying that the people in the village liked to be lively.
Gu Qingying was not outside, Sister-in-law Liang came to help, and she and Brother Lin stood at the gate with a smile on their faces, and warmly greeted some of the regular customers and friends who had been invited before.
A series of eight red banners nearly 20 meters long were pulled down from the roof of the building and fixed on the concrete floor in front of the building, and various advertisements and preferential contents were extremely eye-catching, and passers-by were immediately attracted by them.
Uncle Li also specially brought a few loudspeakers from the electrical appliance mall to play, and the opening speech that had been recorded a long time ago.
"The opening of Didi Food Hall is a big reward, and all customers will be 60% off for the first time! If you spend more than 200 yuan, you will get a case of "Huaguang brand beer". ”
"May Day opening big reward!"
"Welcome!"
"Didi Food Hall is a big deal, welcome!"
"Wasn't this a seafood restaurant full of gold and jade before? When did it become Didi's Food Hall?"
In the previous week, when handing out flyers for publicity, many people didn't know that Jinyumantang Seafood Restaurant had become Didi Food Hall.
"I heard that it was bought by a woman from other places, and after renovating, it was newly opened."
"yes, that's just right, let's go eat here today! See how it tastes? When a few passers-by heard this, they immediately walked into the store.
"Let's eat here today, there's a discount! Beer is also available! A few more diners were drawn in.
"I heard from my relatives that the chef of this new restaurant today has a few good dishes, let's try them. I even brought a bottle of wine! ”
An old gentleman with silver hair but strong spirits was talking to his friend outside the restaurant door.
"Okay." Although the other old gentleman was still in a low mood, he didn't want to save his old friend's face, so he nodded and followed.
"Welcome!"
Xiao Ai, one of the welcoming little sisters standing at the gate, saw that the two of them were not ordinary, and directly took people to the small private room of "Tianshan White Snow".
Xiao Ai led the two old men to the private room, and after a while, a waiter put a few carefully prepared cold dishes on the table.
Boss You laughed, "The service is not bad, the decoration of this room is also elegant, and the name of "Tianshan White Snow" is also good. ”
"The decoration is really good, these materials are very high-end."
"Look at the menu, the price is very affordable."
In the kitchen, Gu Qingying was very busy.
Today's chef in the restaurant is her and a local chef invited by Chef Deng, and the other chefs are apprentices taught by Chef Deng.
Although he is an apprentice, he is not a beginner, and he has also worked out in various restaurants, and his skills are also very good.
Gu Qingying attracted everyone's attention at the beginning, after all, her exotic face.
Especially the new apprentices who had never seen Gu Qingying before and had cooked with Gu Qingying in the kitchen, they were all curious to see what she was going to do.
As soon as Gu Qingying picked up the kitchen knife, it was like a different person, her knife was smooth and imposing.
These people were dazzled just by looking at her knife skills, waiting for her to put the oil on the shelf, put the ingredients, turn the spoon, season, and get out of the pot.
It took less than a few minutes to cook a dish, and before everyone could understand what was going on, the dish was already out of the pot.
"This eldest sister is so powerful! The dishes are so fragrant, and the taste is amazing!. ”
"Her knife skills are so good, I didn't even have time to see it clearly!"
"Is it Master Deng's personal apprentice?"
"No, this is the proprietress of the house, don't talk about it, she will definitely help in the kitchen these days, if you see too much, you won't be surprised, anyway, I'm already numb! There are also all sharp points, a little bit of eye-catching. One of Master Deng's apprentices said.
When everyone was talking, Gu Qingying's side was another dish out of the pot, and the onlookers were not calm, and they all exploded.
"I'm good, she made two dishes! What kind of speed is this? ”
"And it tastes so good, and the food is so good! Where did she learn her cooking? I should have left Xinprovince very early, otherwise the Hui people's skills in cooking our local dishes would have been so good. ”
"It's all work, don't look at it." Master Deng of the restaurant also noticed it, and seeing that everyone was not working, he just talked about Gu Qingying, and he shouted loudly.
On this side, today's restaurant has really attracted a lot of people, and by eleven o'clock in the morning, the guests have filled the entire second floor.
The six waiters who greeted the guests below the first floor were all tired all morning, too busy!
"There are a lot of people coming to eat today, and some of them are busy." A waiter in the restaurant said as he looked at the restaurant full of people.
"The boss said that the opening of the business in the past few days has been double our salary for a week. It's worth the hard work. ”
"The decoration of the store is good, some are not busy, if no one comes to the opening, you have to worry about it! The salary given by the boss is not low, if you don't have a business, where will the money come from to pay you! Stop talking, hurry up and get to work! ”
Three days after the May Day holiday, this business is on fire, not an ordinary fire! For three days in a row, the diners who came to the door were full.
After a wave of people left, as soon as the table was cleaned up, another wave of guests came in, and some guests were willing to wait for half an hour or an hour.
For three whole days, Sister-in-law Liang and Brother Lin, who came to help, basically did not rest!
Although Gu Qingying was busy, fortunately, her physical fitness had improved a lot after practicing martial arts, but even so, she felt a little tired, not to mention Sister-in-law Liang.
Fortunately, she still has a system, and she redeemed some health care products to relieve fatigue, and she recovered after drinking it.
"Meizi, has the account been settled? How much turnover are there in these three days? When it closed at half past eight in the evening, Gu Qingying sat on a chair and asked.
"It's calculated, there are more than 51,000 in three days! After deducting the cost and the employee's salary, there is almost 30% of the profit, which is still discounted! If this is similar to this every day, then this business is terrible. ”
Upon hearing this, Sister-in-law Liang smiled in disbelief and asked, "Really! There are so many! Is this business so profitable? ”
Seeing that her mother couldn't close her mouth, Meizi nodded seriously.
"I'll do the math, ah! There is more than 10,000 profits, which is more than 100,000 a month! ...... a year."
Meizi watched her mother look like she was happy, and sighed softly. Mom is such a personality, straight and straight!
Besides, what is she excited about?
It's none of her business.
"Okay, okay, mom, do you have to settle accounts like this? There are many problems that a store has to face, and how much has been invested in the early stage of the store, and the cost and profit are not calculated by you! If it were all like you, everyone would have made a fortune a long time ago, and they would have waited until now. ”
"What Meizi said makes sense, can you settle accounts like you? This business is good and bad, and not every day can be like today! If it's bad, there is almost no business, and you won't know until you see how much money you have in your hands after a long time. Brother Lin also said.
Brother Lin interrupted his wife's words with a smile, and he could only shake his head at her such optimistic thoughts. And this is also the ability of Didi, what does it have to do with his family.
Sister-in-law Liang is also a businessman, she will be like this today, but she is too happy, and it would be good if she could do this!
"Yes, it took a lot of money to renovate this storefront. You say the restaurant is doing so well, right? You can help too! Save yourself from digging in the soil! ”
"Hmmm! Will Didi invite me, though? What can I do for her! Brother Lin couldn't make up his mind for a while, and turned his head to look at Gu Qingying.
"Just do what you've done in the past few days, logistics, see you're doing a good job. Right? Didi. Sister-in-law Liang also said politely.
"Well, it's totally fine, I'm okay!" Gu Qingying said that someone helped with labor, she didn't have anything to say, anyway, she didn't rely on restaurants to make money, as long as the service attitude was good and the quality of the food was guaranteed.
"Why don't I go and ask the third brother again?" Sister-in-law Liang said again.
"Didn't your third brother do a good job in the fabric factory?"
"Now, it's not easy for the third brother to do there!"
"I don't agree, your third brother is too good at eating and drinking! There are too many friends with wine and meat, if he is allowed to come here, a small half of the turnover will have to be given to him to eat and drink! When the time comes, you will pay the bill, and you will have money! Brother Lin said with a calm face.
"No, let's tell the third brother that we can bring friends to dinner at a discount, but we can't take credit! Besides, this is Didi's shop, he won't do that. ”
"You think so beautifully, after so many years, don't you know you and him? He's Laipi's person, if he does things here, he can't stop it, anyway, I don't agree. ”
"You...... What's wrong with my brother? You just did it on purpose! No one Didi objected! Sister-in-law Liang looked unhappy and shouted out angrily.
"Dad, please uncle!" Meizi saw that her parents were a little deadlocked, and thought to herself, don't make any noise! She hurriedly proposed.
