Chapter 134 - 134 0134 Start from the Bottom

134: Chapter 0134: Start from the Bottom 134: Chapter 0134: Start from the Bottom Ye Qiu understood Chen Fang’s feelings, but he knew that being a boss like how she and Ye Weidong used to be, doing everything themselves, was too hard.

Of course, Li Fu was also hands-on, and yet the business had ended up so bad.

“Mom, I’ll make arrangements when the time comes, and besides, I opened this restaurant precisely to ensure that you, dad, and sister wouldn’t have to work so hard.”

Chen Fang felt very satisfied upon hearing this.

She was comforted by Ye Qiu’s considerate thoughts.

When Chen Fang and Ye Xue came downstairs, Ye Weidong was in the office, being annoyed by the chefs and the waitress.

Because he didn’t know what Ye Qiu was thinking.

“My son makes the decisions here, ask him!”

Ye Weidong said.

Only then did the waitresses realize that the young man from yesterday’s meal was the one in charge, so they hurried over to ask Ye Qiu.

“I am quite clear about your culinary skills and your attitude towards service.

Do you think I would want you?”

Ye Qiu said coldly.

Seeing Ye Qiu’s expression, the chefs and waitresses didn’t know what to say.

Ye Qiu had seen exactly how they had performed yesterday.

When Chen Fang tugged at Ye Qiu, Ye Weidong said, “Why not keep these people?”

Ye Qiu and Ye Weidong weren’t playing good cop, bad cop, because there were simply too many ordinary chefs and waitresses.

According to Ye Qiu’s previous plans, he wanted to replace all of Li Fu’s chefs, support staff, and waitresses, hiring a new batch of chefs with lifetime contracts.

As for the waitresses and support staff, they were simply too lazy and their attitude was poor.

He wanted to hire a diligent crew; otherwise, Chen Fang and Ye Xue would end up being busy again.

When Ye Weidong spoke up, Ye Qiu said, “You can stay, but you’ll have to start with the lowest salary.

If you don’t want to work, you can leave today.

If you want to stay, you must do as I say.

Go back and think about it and make it clear to the others as well.”

The waitresses and chefs had no choice but to come downstairs.

Now, the place definitely needed a complete renovation, and then it would have to air out for a few months to get rid of the smell left after renovations before it could truly open for business.

During this period, it wasn’t just about playing and waiting – Ye Qiu intended to teach the chefs the art of Imperial cuisine and improve the attitude of the waitresses.

Although this wasn’t a star-rated hotel, he knew that only with good service from the waitresses and satisfied customers would there be repeat customers.

All these issues needed his attention for proper resolution.

However, that was all for today’s work.

Li Fu had already called for a ride to take all his personal belongings away.

As for the tables inside, they were left from before, and Li Fu didn’t want them either.

Li Fu had people move his things to his car, shook hands with Ye Weidong and Ye Qiu, and said, “I wish you success.”

“Mr.

Li, hope we can cooperate again in the future.”

Ye Qiu said.

“Definitely, definitely.”

Mr.

Li said.

He had long realized that the young Ye Qiu was much more capable than his father.

However, he was still unclear about what exactly was going on here.

Li Fu no longer said anything to the chefs and waitresses now.

He had decided to leave and wasn’t going to take them with him.

As for their pay, he would settle it today, wrapping up his role as their boss.

As Li Fu prepared to leave, he still looked to Ye Qiu and asked, “I don’t know if those chefs and waitresses will stay?”

“Mr.

Li, I’ve spoken to them.

If they wish to stay, they must start from the lowest wage, and I have no need for idlers.

Their previous attitude and service awareness were too poor, which was one of the reasons your business was not doing well.”

Li Fu naturally understood this point.

Since Ye Qiu was willing to take in those waitresses and chefs, he didn’t interfere further.

After Li Fu drove away, the remaining chefs and waitresses didn’t expect to truly have a new boss so quickly.

“Boss, we are willing to stay,”

the waitresses said.

“Willingness is good, but as I just made clear, I will not tolerate laziness here.

Your service attitude and awareness need to be retrained.”

“Boss, we are also willing to stay,”

the chefs and logistics staff said.

“You are aware of your own cooking skills; they don’t even compare to the chefs at the outdoor food stalls, so you know your current situation better than anyone,”

Ye Qiu said.

“We understand, but the minimum wage might be too little,”

In Jinling, the minimum wage is just over a thousand yuan, and even working as a restaurant chef comes with meals included, so there is not much money left over.

“I’m not saying that will be your wage forever, your salary will be increased based on your abilities.”

The chefs naturally understood this.

However, they felt that it was still not enough.

Now they didn’t dare to say anything, as Ye Qiu turned to Ye Weidong and said, “Dad, go to the culinary school tomorrow and find eight or nine chef graduates to come over.

Let them learn alongside these people, and we’ll see who qualifies to stay; those who don’t can get lost.”

The old hand chefs were not too concerned until they heard that Ye Qiu was planning to bring in a batch of graduates from a culinary school.

That immediately put them under pressure.

Ye Qiu was well aware of the current market situation.

It was not a shortage of labor, but a lack of talent, especially in culinary arts.

Many people study to be chefs, but truly talented chefs who can cook delicious food are rare.

The chefs, who previously had reservations about starting at the lowest wage, now had no objections.

“Moreover, we need to find new renovation workers to come in for the remodeling.

I will do the design myself,”

Ye Qiu told Ye Weidong.

Ye Weidong clearly understood these points.

It wasn’t that Ye Qiu didn’t trust other designers, but because he had absorbed knowledge about design in his soul consciousness, as well as the soul consciousness of gifted designer students.

On this matter, Ye Qiu knew that the designs he created would definitely not be inferior to those of other designers outside.

Ye Weidong, Chen Fang, and Ye Xue were all surprised.

However, the three of them didn’t ask anything at the moment.

Because while looking over the contracts just now, Ye Weidong felt that his son seemed not only to be great at medical skills and excellent in academic performance but also no less competent in other areas compared to anyone else.

“You all have the day off now, come back at nine o’clock tomorrow,”

Ye Qiu told the waitresses and chefs.

The waitresses and chefs then left the place, and outside the door, a sign indicated that the business was temporarily closed.

Even without a notice written out, it seemed there would be no customers anyway.
