Chapter 224 Kyoto Restaurant is open
It was another noisy night.
It was also the first time for An Qiao to experience eating steak while standing. It seemed that all elegance had to be put aside in front of this group of people, so she just ate while standing.
And I've never experienced it before, but it actually tastes pretty good while eating while standing.
"Will this be a new dish tomorrow?" Qi Tao beside him asked curiously.
Since she was the one who served the food, she couldn't help but feel curious when she saw that everyone had different kinds of meat on their plates.
"And it seems that everyone eats different kinds of meat. How can we sell this?" Everyone couldn't help but look up at An Qiao.
Some of the girls who got along well with each other even took turns eating them, and naturally experienced the difference.
"Sell it. We're going to have a promotion with hidden models."
An Qiao remembered that in her previous life, she liked to make hidden versions of everything, whether it was blind boxes, dolls, or small pendants. It seemed that there was always a time when she did not make hidden versions.
"Hidden version?" The people below were stunned. What is a hidden version?
"As the name suggests, hidden objects are particularly popular. Things that everyone can get are not so popular. Since not everyone can get them, they are naturally hidden. We will organize an event to give back to old users. As long as you have had special coupons in the past, you can use them to participate in this event. If new customers want to try it, they have to recharge. After recharging a certain amount of money in the store, they can get this opportunity. The recharged money can be directly deducted from the recharged money the next time you come to eat." An Qiao explained. In fact, these are activities that modern humans often do, but they are a little novel to the ancients.
"Wow, girl, you must make a lot of money this time." Lixia said with starry eyes.
An Qiao didn't have so many thoughts. "No, it might be okay if there was no plague, but it's too difficult to attract new customers now. Everyone is afraid of a sudden crisis. If you don't have some money, even if you charge a lot of money in a restaurant, you're afraid that a disaster will happen one day."
"What the young lady said makes sense. We shouldn't be so optimistic. But this thing, what is it called... steak, right? It's really delicious! Those who got the awards will naturally help us promote it." Tong Yiyi heard this not long after she came back, and poured cold water on the people around her at the right time.
An Qiao nodded, "But it's okay. Whether it's popular or not, we can continue to do it, and we can also make a lot of beef jerky to sell. I've thought about it. If you buy this beef jerky and keep it at home, it won't go bad for a while. I think a lot of people will like it."
In fact, An Qiao's idea of hiding the items was just a flash of inspiration, whether it was the decoration or the operation of the soap shop.
A large amount of money is needed, but it seems that there is no way to have so much money on hand to operate it now.
The idea of being prepared for danger in times of peace also makes her afraid of sudden disasters. If a disaster happens again one day, she still wants to survive with her men.
Everything will depend on tomorrow.
……
Everyone in the restaurant hasn't gotten up to work for nearly two months, and now everyone is getting up together and feeling excited to welcome today's guests.
"Good morning, young lady."
Just as An Qiao walked out the door to get breakfast, she saw two little girls, Yu Shui and Jing Zhe, running down from the dormitory building in a hurry.
"Slow down, don't be in a hurry." An Qiao said with a smile.
The three of them went to the kitchen together. Lixia and Lidong were already preparing breakfast for everyone.
We are going to fight a beautiful "battle" today.
Everyone is feeling somewhat worried. Yesterday, when Dahan came back from shopping, he said that many restaurants and hotels in the city had gone bankrupt, and two months would be enough to run out of business for most of the food supply.
Although the Kyoto restaurant is still there, I don’t know if there will still be customers coming.
Although most people don't show it on their faces, they are actually nervous inside.
"It's okay. Whether there are people coming or not, we just need to make the food delicious and worthy of the diners." An Qiao encouraged everyone at the right time.
The fried dough sticks this morning were particularly delicious, and Anqiao ate two in a row.
Golden and crispy fried dough sticks can bring people a full sense of satisfaction and happiness. "At the beginning of summer and winter, my cooking skills have improved. I haven't cooked for a restaurant for two months, but I can still improve."
Lixia said carelessly, "I have nothing to do anyway, so I can run to the kitchen and do better. And on days when there are no customers ordering food, I can do whatever I want and practice whatever I want."
Lidong lowered his head shyly and smiled, but didn't say anything.
After dinner, everyone arrived at the restaurant one after another. Lichun took Jingzhe and Lidong to the small restaurant to prepare today's breakfast.
The others arrived in the large courtyard, ready to start business.
I don’t know if there are many people, but now the only time people can cook is during the Beginning of Summer and the Beginning of Winter, and only during the Waking of Insects can they occasionally cook a meal.
But Jingzhe can only do simple things. If something is too complicated, he can only look at it and is not yet able to do it himself.
"It seems like we have to buy new people who can cook. Last time there were not enough waiters, and this time there are not enough cooks." An Qiao sighed. This is just like making pancakes. If there is too much dough, you have to pour water, and if there is too much water, you have to pour dough. It's endless.
"Ah? Young lady, I can do it. There's no need to make it so troublesome." Lixia said hurriedly.
"You can do it now, but if there are too many people, you won't be able to handle it alone and it will affect our restaurant business. If we buy new people, they will have to be led by you." An Qiao said with a smile.
As for the pastry makers, except for Zhao Hengzhi who is in the restaurant every day, the other two almost always switch back and forth between the milk tea shop and the restaurant, here today and there tomorrow.
Although there are still not enough people, we can still cope with it.
The only chefs who can serve now, besides An Qiao, are two little girls, and they have to choose the ones who go to the soap shop. An Qiao thought that she would have to go to find Shen Ya again in a few days.
Lixia didn't say anything after hearing Anqiao's words, and there was no sign of unhappiness on her face.
An Qiao said, "Don't think too much, I just think you are too tired."
Lixia nodded obediently, and Anqiao didn't say anything.
Soon, guests began to arrive.
Xu Banshan appeared out of nowhere, holding a teacup and looking happy.
"You won the prize!" An Qiao looked at Xu Banshan and couldn't help asking.
"My dear, long time no see. I certainly don't have the ability to win the prize, but I do feel a little relieved." Xu Banshan was muttering to himself, completely losing the image of the elegant and noble man he had created before.
"? What makes you so happy?" An Qiao also brought a pot of tea and started drinking it.
"Of course it's a great thing." Xu Banshan lowered his voice mysteriously, "Although this matter, if told to others, is not a good thing, it is a great thing for me."
