When Shen Fengming returned to the Pacification Office, Yang Sheng immediately came to greet him. These past few days, he had been wanting to ask how things were going between him and Jiang Yunzhu. Fearing that it would affect them, he had not dared to see her, and it almost made him feel suffocated.
Shen Fengming told Jiang Yunzhu that he wanted to hire someone and what he was thinking.
"Miss Jiang, are you going to open a restaurant? When will it open?" Yang Sheng asked impatiently. After hearing Shen Fengming's next words, he thought of those who were forced to leave Qilin Guard, and his expression gradually became serious.
Those people... what a pity.
"You're still thinking about them." Yang Sheng glanced at Shen Fengming and smiled. His boss, though seemingly cold and heartless, was actually much better than those hypocritical people.
For those people, working in Jiang Yunzhu's restaurant might be a chance for rebirth.
Shen Fengming looked at him with eyes as cold as glaciers.
Yang Sheng smiled awkwardly and said, "I don't know if those people will be able to wait for the guests. How about I go and watch over them?"
He was only halfway through his words when Shen Fengming saw through his thoughts. He wanted to go to Jiang Yunzhu's place for a meal and he had to find a reason. Although those people had left Qilin Guard, they all knew their limits. How could they not be good at being waiters
Yang Sheng smiled awkwardly and said, "Don't expose him!"
Jiang Yunzhu wanted to hire six people, and Yang Sheng carefully considered the candidates.
Afterwards, he went to the place where the new recruits were trained in the Zhenfu Division. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a gentle-looking man about to leave.
The man saw him, smiled gently, and saluted, "Mr. Deputy Commander."
Yang Sheng looked him up and down. Yun Du, 23 years old this year, may not look like this now, but when he picks up a knife, he becomes a different person, extremely fierce.
Especially when he sees someone hurting a child, he becomes even more violent.
It was still that case that had a huge impact on him, those scumbags... Thinking of that case, Yang Sheng was also filled with anger. Those beasts really deserved to be cut into pieces.
Back to Yun Du, everyone knew that he had problems, and he himself was also aware of it, so he had no choice but to retire.
It’s just that he has been in the Qilin Guard since he was a child. After leaving, the smile on his face became more and more gentle, but the grayness in his eyes became more and more.
Yang Sheng stopped there and asked him, "Do you want to find a job?"
The smile on Yundu's face slowly disappeared.
…
Two days later, Jiang Yunzhu met Shen Fengming, Yang Sheng, and six other people.
There were two women and four men. Two of the women, one was in her twenties, very pretty but a little cold; the other was in her thirties, very pretty and with a smile on her face.
There were four men, two of them were in their twenties. Both of them were very handsome, but their expressions were very contrasting. One had a warm smile, like the sunshine in spring, while the other had a cold face, like ice in the coldest days of winter.
The remaining two men were about forty years old, one had a strong face and the other was thin.
Yang Sheng introduced them one by one, "Zheng Li Niang, Jin Jiaoyue, Yun Du, Zhang He, Zhan Changchuan, Wu Yu. Zhang He's cooking skills are pretty good, and the rest are literate, so they can do accounting, be waiters, and do odd jobs."
Not only is there no problem, but they are all overqualified. Jiang Yunzhu knows people, otherwise she wouldn't be able to take care of everything for Lin Ting'an in her dreams. She could tell at a glance that these people were all extraordinary.
She looked at Shen Fengming. Is this really okay
Shen Fengming nodded. Yang Sheng had already asked them and they were willing to come.
The two of them only exchanged a brief glance, but it attracted everyone's attention.
Yang Sheng was naturally extremely happy. The thousand-year-old iron tree finally blossomed, and all his hard work was worth it.
Yun Du and the others were shocked. This girl and Governor Shen...it seemed like they had discovered some huge secret.
They looked at Jiang Yunzhu quietly, and saw that her skin was as white as snow, and her face was as soft as apricot blossoms in spring. Such a girl and Governor Shen were really a perfect match in terms of appearance. If the two stood together, they would definitely be as beautiful as a painting.
But someone like Governor Shen... It's hard to imagine how the two of them get along.
Without mentioning the huge waves in the hearts of several people, Jiang Yunzhu looked at them and decided to make it clear, "Are you really willing to come to work in my shop? I need a chef, a shopkeeper, three waiters, and a handyman.
As for wages, it depends on the chef's cooking skills, generally between two and six taels. Of course, if the cooking skills are particularly good, the price can be negotiated.
The shopkeeper earns about three taels per month.
Waiters and odd jobs, one or two taels per month." This price was set by Jiang Yunzhu based on the price and salary levels in Beijing, and it is not low.
Six people nodded.
It seems that it is possible. Jiang Yunzhu looked at Zhang He and asked, "Can you cook?"
"I know a little." Zhang He said.
Jiang Yunzhu asked him to go to the kitchen with her. The kitchen in this courtyard did not need to be renovated, and there were some kitchen utensils left by Boss Pan in it, which were enough to test Zhang He's cooking skills.
Zhang He still had a cold face. He picked up a carrot and started cooking.
Jiang Yunzhu has become accustomed to Shen Fengming's coldness and seems to have become immune to it. She doesn't think there is anything wrong with his behavior.
Swish, swish, swish, the knife flew, and in a short while, a radish was cut into thin slices.
The slices are almost light-transmissive, and each piece is the same size and thickness.
Jiang Yunzhu knew that his knife skills had at least reached the pinnacle. Even if his cooking skills were not that good, with his knife skills, he was more than capable of helping her and Xue Jing in the kitchen.
At this time, Zhang He lit the pan with oil and started stir-frying the radish slices.
Jiang Yunzhu's eyes lit up as she watched his movements. His cooking skills seemed really good.
"Who did you learn from?" she asked in surprise. Is there anyone in Qilin Guard who teaches cooking
"I practiced it myself when I had nothing to do." Zhang He answered briefly. In fact, many people in the Qilin Guard also have their own hobbies. In fact, they will do what they like to do crazily to relax their body and mind.
Zhang He likes to cut vegetables when he has nothing to do, and cooking is secondary.
Jiang Yunzhu had nothing to say.
After a while, a dish was cooked. She took a bite and her expression changed several times before she carefully asked Zhang He, "Do you usually eat the food you cook?"
"No," Zhang He said. He always cooked a lot of dishes, so he couldn't finish them all.
No wonder, "Then what about the dishes you usually cook?" Jiang Yunzhu was curious.
"I work in the Qilinwei canteen, and the dishes I cook are probably eaten by them," said Zhang He.
Jiang Yunzhu seriously suspected that Qilin Guards were afraid of the food he cooked, so Yang Sheng sent him to her. His food was too salty.
"Why don't you try this dish you made?" she suggested.
Zhang He looked at her and frowned.
Jiang Yunzhu handed him a pair of chopsticks. If he refused to taste it, then forget it. She might not be able to hire him.
Zhang He hesitated for a while, took the chopsticks, picked up a piece of radish and put it in his mouth.
Then Jiang Yunzhu noticed that his indifferent face was beginning to crack.
Surprisingly, it's kind of funny.
Zhang He swallowed the carrot with all his might, his eyes wandering. Was the food he cooked so unpalatable? Why had no one told him about this before
Who dares to talk to him? His face is only slightly colder than Governor Shen’s.
Besides, he saved everyone's lives during that raid. It was just his hobby, so it was certainly not appropriate for people to discourage him.
"Do you want to make it more delicious?" Jiang Yunzhu asked. If he was willing to learn, it would be worth cultivating. At least he had a good grasp of knife skills and heat control.
Zhang He nodded, he was willing to learn. When he made it delicious, he would let his brothers eat it, which would be considered as repaying their previous favor.
It’s okay. Jiang Yunzhu picked up a radish and taught on the spot.
"You have good knife skills, but if you want to make a good dish, you don't have to cut every slice into the same thickness. You have to decide based on the condition of the vegetables or meat. For example, look at this radish. The flesh on the top near the radish leaves is a little harder. You have to cut it thinner than the bottom so that it will be evenly fried.
And…" Jiang Yunzhu said as she did it. Her fingers were as light as butterflies, and her voice was like a clear mountain spring, which attracted people unconsciously.
Zhang He stood by and watched her busying around, and his heart, which had been restless all day, seemed to finally find peace.
The sun shone in from the window, making him feel warm. He suddenly realized that there were so many tricks to cooking. Compared with Jiang Yunzhu, he didn't seem to really like cutting vegetables and cooking before, but just used it to divert his attention and vent his emotions.
Now, he felt that perhaps he could really study how to cook.
The two of them were in the kitchen, one teaching seriously, the other learning seriously. Various noises were heard from time to time. The few people outside were watching and listening, but there was a feeling of tranquility.
Is this life? Even a small carrot seems to have endless fun.
They've been holding knives for so long that they seem to have forgotten how it feels.
For some reason, they wanted to try the dishes cooked by Jiang Yunzhu. They must be delicious!
At this moment, a cold light swept over, and several people shuddered. Well, I almost forgot that Governor Shen is still here, so they probably won't have a share of this dish.
However, if they stay to work, will it be the same in the future
"Am I being nice to you guys?" Yang Sheng said angrily at this time. He hadn't eaten the food made by Jiang Yunzhu yet, and he had missed it for a long time.
Several people had different expressions, but they felt that it seemed good.
In this way, several people stayed. Except for Zhang He who was the chef, Jiang Yunzhu had to observe the others before deciding what they would do.
It just so happens that we are short of manpower for store decoration right now, so they can help.
So Jiang Yunzhu agreed with them to have a three-day trial period, and then discuss the specific details of hiring them after three days.
Suddenly there were so many people, and several of them were capable, Jiang Yunzhu felt a lot more relaxed.
"Ms. Jiang, when will the restaurant open?" Yang Sheng finally got the chance to talk to Jiang Yunzhu.
"Probably half a month later." Jiang Yunzhu replied.
"So long." Yang Sheng's face twisted.
Jiang Yunzhu smiled. She had been eating the food in the inn for so many days, and she was actually tired of it. Now that someone was helping her with the work, she also had time to cook.
"Do you want to have dinner together tonight?" she asked Yang Sheng.
Yang Sheng nodded hurriedly.
Jiang Yunzhu looked at Shen Fengming again, "Do you want to stay tonight..." Looking at his increasingly deep eyes, she suddenly felt that this invitation seemed inappropriate.
