Chapter 530 Emergency
The ambitious Zhang Shihui drove to the "Tan Palace" around nine o'clock in the morning.
But to his surprise, the gate of the "Tan Palace" restaurant, which was supposed to be clean and peaceful, was very abnormal.
It was actually more lively than the crowded dim sum shop next to it.
Two 130 trucks carrying goods parked at the entrance of the restaurant so openly.
About seven or eight chefs in white clothes and white coats were passing through the door of the restaurant, carrying ingredients to the kitchen, and they were busy coming in and out.
Jiang Dachun, who came from Beihai Fangshan Restaurant and had a conflict with Ning Weimin because of his junior brother on the opening day, was standing at the door and taking charge of the command.
People carrying the goods kept asking him for instructions, "Brother Jiang, where should I put this flour?"
"Brother Jiang, should these fruits be put into the basement or sent to the kitchen first? "
"Brother Jiang, where is the oil? I don't think it's necessary to change the base oil for the kitchen fryer? Do you still want to send it to the kitchen?"
Zhang Shihui was almost dumbfounded by the chaos and congestion.
Of course, there was absolutely no way he could park his car on the side of the road in front of the restaurant.
Because the parking space is occupied by two trucks.
At exactly this moment, he discovered that Yang Feng, who had just transferred his relationship from Chongwenmen Biianfang and was learning halal roast duck with Master Ai, was counting duck embryos in the truck.
Unable to sit still any longer, he immediately got out of the car and walked over to ask.
"Yang Zi, what's going on? Why are you taking goods from the front door?"
This Yang Feng is actually the chef buddy Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui had a good relationship with when they were at the Chongwenmen Hotel.
Back then, I really had to prepare a lot of food for them.
So Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui brought him over.
I just hope that this guy can help them keep an eye on the kitchen, and even become a chef one day.
This person is absolutely one of our own, so naturally he knows everything he knows.
“The water pipe burst in the back, and it has been repaired now. However, there is too much water and mud, making it difficult to walk. So the cart cannot be used, so we have to rely on manpower. Isn’t it close here?”
Yang Feng’s words immediately made Zhang Shihui understand that this was a temporary measure taken in the event of an emergency.
But after thinking about it carefully, he still felt it was inappropriate.
Especially when I saw some flour and vegetable leaves sprinkled on the front steps, and the two copper-clad doors, which had been bumped by the cart.
He couldn't tolerate it anymore and decided to stop it.
"Stop, stop now, it's no luck!..."
His horizontal thrust immediately caused consternation, and everyone who was carrying it was at a loss. .
Only Jiang Dachunhan came to negotiate with a straight face.
"What do you mean? Manager Zhang......"
It can be seen from his expression that this boy is in a very bad mood. He is not only dissatisfied but also irritable.
Zhang Shihui remained unmoved and faced it calmly.
"Dachun, you can't transport goods through the front door, you have to go through the back door. This is the same in any hotel. You should know this..."
"But...but There's water all over the place today. There's nothing we can do about it. Look at all the goods. If we don't transport them all within half an hour, what will we do then? ? I'm completely blind..."
Listening to Jiang Dachun's angrily recounting the difficulties, Zhang Shihui nodded to express his understanding, but his attitude remained unwavering.
"This is indeed a matter of fate. But the reason why the regulations are regulations is that they must be implemented. What kind of restaurant is our 'Tan Palace'? Doing this will affect the image too much. Look, you just got lucky. It’s just half a car, right? The floor at the front entrance is so dirty, and the door is so damaged! And the floor is not easy to clean, and it’s very possible for guests to fall... ”
His accusation made all the chefs feel a little bit wrong.
But as the saying goes, when a scholar meets a soldier, he cannot explain the truth clearly.
As a manual worker, chefs are similar to soldiers, and they love to be motivated.
For example, Jiang Dachun was a bit disappointed. Not only was he not convinced, but he asked with a pale face.
"Then what do you think we should do? If we are not allowed to take goods from here, the kitchen affairs will be delayed. Who will bear this responsibility? Besides, I have already said hello to Manager Du, and he agrees..."
And with him taking the lead, other chefs also had the courage to express their dissatisfaction, as if Zhang Shihui was just looking for trouble.
“Isn’t this intentional to make things difficult for others? It’s inevitable when working...”
“It’s not like we haven’t asked before, and they blame us in turn...”
"Really, half of this has been accomplished. If we don't let you do it now, it won't be a fool's errand..."
The words were really unpleasant and the conflict was great, especially when it involved more sensitive internal interpersonal relationships.
What you need to know is that Manager Du from Jiang Dachunti is from the District Service Bureau.
Not only is he a member of Director Jin, but he is also a person who has been following Ning Weimin's horse and horse since the "Tan Palace" project was established. He is a person with relatively strong ability to do things.
If Zhang Shihui had not agreed to come as an airborne cadre.
This kid is likely to replace Zhang Shihui and become Ning Weimin's first deputy in the "Tan Palace".
Undoubtedly, it is precisely because of this that the relationship between Zhang Shihui and this person is very subtle. It may be described by the phrase "the face and the heart are not in harmony".
In fact, each of them hopes to completely subdue the other, but they do not want to make this private conflict and competition public.
Otherwise, not only will he lose his grace and appear incompetent, I am afraid that as a person who undermines internal unity, he will also make Ning Weimin dissatisfied.
So when dealing with this matter, Zhang Shihui has to pay attention to strategies and methods.
Since it is not easy to be tough, it is best to overcome hardness with gentleness.
"Don't be so angry. I don't blame you either. I know that Manager Du promised you. But after all, he works in an office and has never worked on the front line. He probably doesn't know the seriousness of this matter..."
Speaking of this, Zhang Shihui changed the topic and showed a very sincere smile.
"Of course, it's not easy for you, and I can't watch you working so hard. Just do this. I'll be the person in charge of preparing the restaurant and help you move it, okay? Twenty people should be enough, right? ? Let’s go through the back door and work together. We can almost finish the move in two or three trips..."
The chefs couldn't help but look at each other, a little surprised.
No one expected that Zhang Shihui would be willing to mobilize so many people to help them in order to maintain the rules of the store.
It seems...that's okay. If this is the case, it won't delay the matter, and it will be easier...
Zhang Shihui understood the chef's mentality and continued to strike while the iron was hot.
“Oh, we are all here for work, so we have to understand each other. Right? Dachun, to be honest, we have had a bit of a tacit understanding in the past two months. I really hope you can stay. Come down. If you can trust me, then take everyone to the back to have a cigarette and have a rest. Just give me five minutes and I will ensure that the people in the restaurant will be there soon..."
These words are even more exciting. There are additional hints.
You know, compared to state-owned hotels, the treatment at "Tan Palace" is simply great.
Although Jiang Dachun's salary is the same as that of his original employer, there are plenty of overtime pay and various subsidies.
In addition, it is good to eat and drink. It is definitely different from Fangshan Restaurant and Tingli Restaurant, which just prepare some meat-free employee meals every day to satisfy their employees. You have to eat and drink secretly to satisfy the needs of your stomach and intestines.
Even here, cigarettes, tea, and sour plum soup are provided for free.
Although the sour plum soup is made from the essence of sour plums, and the cigarettes and tea are all from the "Huimin Cigarette Hotel", which are made at a loss to make money, but what is the free stuff that doesn't taste good?
Almost all foreign chefs have long been shaken from the bottom of their hearts.
Except there are a few people who are worried that "Tan Palace" will only be popular for a few days.
Almost most people hope to officially transfer their working relationships before the one-year aid expires.
Jiang Dachun also belongs to the majority.
After listening to Zhang Shihui’s words of not remembering old sins and clearly showing good intentions, it was hard for him to say “no” again.
"Okay, Manager Zhang, since you said so, let's do it like this. But...the two of you, what do you think you should say? We just wanted to beg you for a long time..."
However, The promise was a promise, and Jiang Dachun couldn't help but sneeze at the cab of the truck.
Yes, it’s not enough for the chefs to do the job, they also have to do the work of the driver.
The two drivers who came to deliver the goods were naturally very unhappy when they knew they had to move the car.
The most annoying thing about doing this kind of errand is walking into narrow alleys and messing around.
Like today's trip, they came early, but they were delayed for at least an hour longer than usual. Who would be happy?
Besides, the status of drivers these days is not ordinary, and they can play big names.
It would be really difficult for these two uncles to deliberately resist.
But the good thing is that Zhang Shihui is no longer what he used to be.
Having been hanging around in the mall with Ning Weimin for so long, he has already developed the ability to recognize people and what to say to whomever he meets.
And he also knows how to figure out the other person's psychology and look for weaknesses in human nature.
Although the driver was originally unwilling to obey the instructions, Zhang Shihui relied on his sharp tongue. Melt reason, profit and emotion into one furnace.
There is no way the driver can’t comply.
"I said to you two masters, I feel a little sorry today, but it happened for a reason. I also drive. Do you think I don't know how troublesome it is to reverse a wheel?" Don't be so objective..."
"I won't hide it from you. I am the administrative manager of this restaurant. If you don't help me, I can call your leaders to report it. You should cooperate with us in unloading, right?”
"What's the big deal about taking a few more steps? You guys have to help me with this, we are friends. I'll write you a letter of praise later and send it to you. Aren't you guaranteed to get your bonus this month?"
" I do what I say, okay? I’ll write it down as soon as this happens. Let me remember it, let’s help each other...”
In the end, not only did the driver not Without any complaints, he drove the car into the back door of "Tan Palace" again.
And the chefs who witnessed the whole process looked at Zhang Shihui with admiration and awe.
Facing his back, the cooks were all whispering.
"You can't tell. Manager Zhang is really quite capable. He solved the difficult driver in just a few words. He was really neat." With his eyes, he walked into the restaurant and went straight to the second floor.
But somewhat unfairly, he immediately shattered the self-esteem of others.
The next step is no longer to be gentle, but to kill the chicken and scare the monkey.
“...Everyone worked very hard yesterday, but there are still many problems. Let me say it again. We are not an ordinary state-owned restaurant. We want to be high-end in palace cuisine. So there are many problems, don’t make them big. We need to start small and start with the details. We try to filter every link, such as door greeting, ordering, cleaning, service, and food delivery, which can increase the comfort of the guests. And satisfaction? By the way, no matter how urgent the situation is, you can only walk quickly. Yesterday, I found someone running away. This is not right. The things in our restaurant are very precious, and accidents can easily happen to guests. I don’t know the situation and feel panic. There are also language standards in our service. I have said it many times and I will say it again. We must use polite words such as "please" and "thank you", especially in restaurants. Don’t speak too loudly..."
As soon as he entered the restaurant, Zhang Shihui saw the restaurant manager Pan Long holding a pre-shift meeting.
In the large restaurant, more than fifty waiters listened in silence.
But Zhang Shihui had no patience to wait for Pan Long to finish speaking, and immediately clapped his hands to interrupt.
When everyone’s attention shifted to him, Zhang Shihui gave the order decisively.
"I need twenty people to go to the back door to help the kitchen transport goods, right now! Now!"
The reaction in the restaurant was the same as that of the chefs downstairs, disbelief and reluctance.
But Zhang Shihui had a back-up plan. He knew that the emperor did not lack hungry soldiers.
"Who wants to go? Count on one hour of overtime. Come on, we don't have any time to waste, young man! Don't be coy, come on!"
The atmosphere immediately changed. , dissatisfaction turned into positivity, at least thirty or forty people raised their hands.
Only Pan Long was still stunned.
"Manager Zhang, isn't it appropriate for you to do this? Let our people help with the kitchen work? It doesn't make sense. We are also very busy. You may not know that there are a lot of reserved seats today, and I need people to help in advance... ”
But Zhang Shihui interrupted categorically again, and instead scolded him with an extremely angry attitude.
“What’s inappropriate? Both the kitchen and the restaurant are part of the restaurant, and we should help each other. If something goes wrong, everyone will be unlucky.”
“Also Yes, you'd better go take a look. The door downstairs is a mess! Is that why you agreed to the kitchen people transporting goods through the front door? "
"I heard you were emphasizing the need for details in the work just now! , I would like to ask you, is it a decent thing to let others see us transporting goods from the front? Will there be any customers coming to our restaurant if it is so dirty? What rights do you have? , the master agreed to such a ridiculous request from the chef!”
"What nonsense are you doing! Let me tell you, take two people down right away and clean the gate for me! In twenty minutes, if I find something dirty, you can clean it for me today!"< br>
As he spoke, he stared at Pan Long.
Pan Long was completely confused. First he felt ashamed and angry, then aggrieved, and finally turned into surrender.
Finally I had to say "yes" and took the two people downstairs.
In fact, why didn’t Zhang Shihui know that Pan Long was wronged?
But he deliberately wanted Pan Long to take the punishment instead of the one in the office.
Who made this kid a close aide of the man named Du? You deserve it.
And this move is completely killing three birds with one stone.
It can show some color to grassroots workers and see who is the one who can make the decision.
We can test out the quality of Du's surname and see if he has the courage to stand up when he hears the noise outside.
In addition, it may also allow Pan Long to create a gap between Du.
This is power tactics! We can also play!
Looking at Zhang Shihui, who never came out from the direction of the office, he smiled secretly and couldn't help but feel complacent.
After that, I ignored it and started to focus on selecting people as if nothing had happened.
"You, you, you...and you, all come with me, okay, okay, enough is enough.
"By the way, everyone should take off their coats first. It's inconvenient to work and don't get them dirty..."
"Come on, follow me downstairs. Don't keep the people in the kitchen waiting." It’s..."
