National Tide 1980

There is an old saying that "business is like people".

This means that doing business is just like living, it all depends on one's energy and spirit.

If this energy and tone are exhausted, then no one can do anything.

The fewer guests there are, the fewer guests there are, the people are too busy, and the waiters are lazy.

When fatigue reaches the extreme, it is a scene of decline.

vice versa.

If it's a business, most employees can work hard and do their jobs well.

Even a business with a poor foundation can become bigger and stronger.

This is the difference between whether there is enthusiasm for labor, and it is also the principle that one plus one is greater than two.

Unity is strength!

If you don’t believe it, then after Ning Weimin implemented new regulations to eliminate waste and theft.

As long as you walk around the "Altar Palace" and look around, you can easily find that this place is very different from the past.

For example, one afternoon in mid-December, in the restaurant business area before the meal, the waiters were making preparations as usual.

Trays, cloths, menus, and various utensils are all in place.

All kinds of wine and glassware are also arranged one by one.

But unlike in the past, these employees only pursued speed and saved trouble.

Everyone is doing the work of setting up the table very carefully and seriously, for fear of breaking anything.

Therefore, there is no noise in the restaurant, and it looks solemn, cautious and orderly.

The only sound that could spread throughout the restaurant and be heard by everyone.

It was the voice of the foreman in the restaurant who, in order to improve the service level, single-handedly instructed two "specially poor students" on how to "highly support" them correctly.

"Look at my movements. Your waist should be straight and your shoulders should be flat! Your eyes should be looking in front of you and your neck should not be crooked. Yesterday, your necks were crooked and that's why you broke things. Do you understand?"

The so-called "high support" is to use a tray to hold a few bricks above the shoulders with one hand, and then train the waist posture and walking stability. If this action is incorrect, you will not be able to walk fast and may easily knock over the items in the tray.

But in the middle of the foreman's lecture, Pan Long and Du Yang came to the restaurant to inspect and supervise.

So with a wave, the foreman had to pause and was called over by Pan Long.

"You must pay more attention to the placement of the ashtrays. At noon, I heard that two ashtrays were knocked off the floor by a guest. This is not okay! Although the porcelain carved from stone is durable, it is a handicraft and may be damaged if it is damaged. It’s useless. It costs eight yuan each.”

"Also, pay attention to the chopstick holders, toothpick holders and wine glasses. They are also made of customized delicate porcelain. Especially the white wine glasses, which are too fragile. Sometimes when guests leave, they will hit the tablecloth when they leave. Broken on the plate, you understand?”

"We must find ways to prevent this kind of accident, otherwise we won't be able to reduce the cost of reporting losses in one month..."

After Pan Long inspected the situation of setting up the stage, he gave a few special instructions.

The foreman could only say yes repeatedly.

"I have also discussed this matter with everyone. Everyone feels that the best solution is to find someone to remove delicate items such as chopstick holders and wine glasses first when guests pay the bill. Also, everyone I suggest that when serving tea to guests, you should also serve dried fruits, candied fruits, etc. Can we set a uniform dosage? Otherwise, the amount will be different, and not only will the guests look at each other awkwardly, but it will also easily cause waste."

Pan Long glanced at the foreman, approvingly, and nodded in affirmation.

"Hey, this is a good suggestion. This is a blind spot that we have ignored in the past. Indeed, if you accumulate a little, you will make a lot. If you sell ten more pots of tea for one pound of tea, you will get a net profit of 30 yuan, which will also have a lot of impact on costs. . I think I can try it..."

And he was also a little inspired.

"Hey, that's right. If you want to put it that way, can we reduce the price of our pastry by one yuan? For him, six yuan becomes five yuan."

This time the foreman didn't even have time to speak, so Du Yang nodded.

"Well, your idea is not bad. Our pastries are all small. If there are too few, I'm afraid they won't look good. Five pieces, I think is just right. Four pieces on the bottom and one on top. It's all stable."

Just like that, the final word was finalized, and both Pan Long and the foreman were praised.

However, as a manager, Pan Long is naturally much more capable than the foreman.

Just after the foreman happily returned to work, he took the initiative to offer a very constructive suggestion.

"Mr. Du, isn't it almost New Year's Day? I have been on duty in a restaurant recently, and I can always hear many domestic customers discussing the purchase of New Year's benefits. Some customers are quite regretful, saying that it is a pity for our pea yellow, aiwowo and the like. , the storage time is too short, otherwise it would be good for giving as gifts.”

"I was just wondering if I could ask Master Luo, who makes Jade Dew Cream for us, to prepare a batch of palace food. The pastry made by Master Luo for our store is far better than what can be bought outside. It’s so much better. The stuff that comes out of the oven lasts longer, and we can definitely try to promote it to guests in the restaurant.”

"You see there are not many customers now, and there is Spring Festival after New Year's Day. If we can sell more of these pastries, we can also increase our sales, right..."

When Du Yang heard this, he knew it was a good idea.

This is no longer a simple reduction of expenditure, it is an open source.

He immediately patted Pan Long on the shoulder, praised him twice as hard, and said he would give suggestions to his superiors later.

At this time, Pan Long was happy, quite as happy as a thousand-mile horse meeting Bole.

At the same time, what happened at the back door of the "Tan Palace" was also very different from the past.

Although Jiang Dachun was still responsible for unloading the goods, this time he unloaded the goods in the car neatly and without missing anything.

But just when Jiang Dachun signed the manifest and was about to leave, the delivery driver stopped him.

This man stuck his head out from the cab, handed over a cigarette, and muttered unwillingly.

"Brother, you really don't want to do such a good thing? Don't you think it's a pity that it's so rare?"

Jiang Dachun didn't answer it, he pushed the cigarette back directly.

Instead, he raised his thumb and pointed with a wry smile to the security officer guarding the back door three meters behind him.

"Don't hurt me. Did you see that we have a doorkeeper? Let's stop this matter. Haven't we already made it clear?"

The driver didn't take it seriously.

"The door god also has to eat the fireworks of the world. Hey, I have come to understand in the past few days. Isn't it just this person? Or leave him to me to settle the matter? If I win the meal, I will share it with multiple people in the future."

Unexpectedly, Jiang Dachun didn't hesitate at all and shook his head even more like a rattle.

"No, no, things are different now. I can't explain it to you. Anyway, if I do this again and fall in the eyes of others, I won't be able to do it at all. I'm sorry, I really can't eat this anymore. Yes. I'm considerate. The kitchen is busy, so I'll go first. Wait for me to rest later, and I'll treat you to a drink..."

He followed him and walked into the cargo door without looking back, completely ignoring the driver.

Such determination certainly made the driver very unhappy.

As soon as I threw the cigarette butt away, I wanted to shout out to him.

But the security officer's stern eyes happened to look over at this time.

Feeling guilty, the driver smacked his mouth, but in the end he didn't open his mouth.

But when he started the car, he finally lost his temper and started mumbling again.

"You're really sick. You can't make any ready money? Are you pretending to be a serious person? Oh, you're still busy? Who doesn't know who you are? Why are you pretending to be positive!"

As for the busyness in the kitchen, it's even more remarkable.

Green cucumbers, red bell peppers, yellow carrots, purple eggplants, white cauliflower, yellow potatoes...all the fresh and tender decorative foods are placed in their proper place on the long table...

In the kitchen, all kinds of food materials - fish, meat, vegetables, and seasonings are put on the table one after another, and the chefs are busy nervously.

But the team leaders in the back kitchen meticulously compared the ingredients list with Jiang Dachun.

We all gathered together today, mainly to discuss an issue, that is, what to do with these cut-out scraps.

So Jiang Dachun, he really wasn't fooling the driver, he really had something important to do.

Lao Cheng spoke first, "Dachun, it would be a pity to just throw away the ingredients for your chopping board that are produced every day. Adding all the meat and vegetables together, it weighs dozens of kilograms every day."

Jiang Dachun scratched his head, "I'm annoyed by what you said. I just threw it away in the past, but now I feel so dizzy looking at it every day. It's still a hundred and ten yuan."

"One hundred a day, you can save three thousand this month. In our hands, it will be nine hundred. I have thought about this matter. How about making stuffing."

"Master Gu, what are you doing for free? Make some steamed buns, pies, pot stickers, etc., and go out from the dim sum shop, okay? No matter what, you can still earn as much as you want."

But Master Gu from Bai An shook his head.

"No, it's too laborious to sort out, wash out, and make all kinds of fillings with so many kinds of scraps. I'm simply too busy."

"It needs to be blended together. It saves trouble, but it will definitely carry the smell and not taste good. Plus, the ingredients themselves are not good. How can they be sold?"

"If you ask me, there is only one way to make croquettes. Beat these things together, mix them with flour, add pepper and allspice. Finally, fry them in oil until they are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Guaranteed. tasty."

"Any odors are also covered up. If you just want to separate meat and vegetables, it's not difficult."

Hey, this is a brilliant idea, everyone present approved it!
