Su Tang knew that opening a restaurant was tiring!

But she didn't know it was this tiring!

In the morning before opening, she began to buy all kinds of ingredients, and then she started to cook them in the kitchen.

After she finished making the dishes, the restaurant could finally open again.

But she was soon overwhelmed by the swarm of people. If it weren't for the servants that her friends lent to her, the West District Restaurant might not be able to operate.

Forget it.

Let's take a break. Thankfully there was an endless stream of people applying to be waiters.

But Su Tang felt a bit confused. Why didn't all these people come to apply to be a waiter before? Why did it seem that everyone came to apply today?

Fortunately, the cashier solved her confusion.

It turned out that people were afraid that the West District Restaurant would close down in just a few days. Even if they came to work, they wouldn't work for too long.

They all wanted to find a long-term job. Naturally, they wouldn't take this new restaurant into account.

But they didn't expect that Su Tang really managed to run the West District Restaurant well.

The most important thing was that Su Tang has a good reputation for being a good Boss to her employees!

When Su Tang heard this, she was a bit puzzled and said, "Good to my workers? How come I didn't know I had this reputation?"

The cashier smiled and said, "Everyone can see clearly, Boss, you are polite to your employees, and you treat us even better than any other bosses, the people who come to eat have all seen it."

"And your breakfast shop too, who doesn't praise what you have done inside?"

If the cashier didn't tell her, Su Tang wouldn't know about it.

When they thought about these things many people made up their minds and they now wanted to work in restaurants. They would end up being a little tired, but they wouldn't get blown by the wind and wouldn't be drenched by the rain. It was better than many jobs.

Moreover, restaurants would also manage their meals and lodging so they could save all the money they earn!

And for these reasons, Su Tang interviewed more than 40 people in one go.

But in the end, she only hired 10 people, four kitchen assistants, and six aunties to help pick vegetables and wash dishes.

Ten people were recruited in one breath, and suddenly there were many more people working in the West District Restaurant.

Plus the previous seven people, there were now 17 people in the restaurant!

This wasn't a small number in any regard.

Moreover, the people recruited were earnest and willing to work. They were very grateful to be able to work here and wouldn't leave because of pressure.

By the next day, West District Restaurant was much more efficient.

The cashier was at the counter.

The chief steward, Li Fan, with another five workers, began to clean the tables and tidy up the lunch boxes.

After doing these things, they went to the kitchen to help pick vegetables and deal with the food ingredients.

Because the dishes were served in large amounts, it takes several people to peel the garlic and onions.

The aunties who were specially recruited to pick vegetables and wash dishes were older. They were in their fifties and they could bear hardships and were comfortable around a group of men.

The aunties worked efficiently and they could divide the work clearly between them to deal with vegetables faster.

While they focused on the vegetables, the chef assistants handled the meat.

Su Tang recruited four more chef assistants for Mr. Hao Quan Kun. So now there are seven people.

Hao Quan Kun suggested to Su Tang that he had a little apprentice who could also help with the cooking. Su Tang tasted the stir-fried dish made by the young man and immediately gave him an additional monthly salary so that he could start cooking with the help of Mr. Hao.

Having an apprentice was very important for a chef.

Therefore in the kitchen, there was Mr. Hao, the main chef, with his apprentice, and the following seven chef assistants.

They came to deal with meat early in the morning. Anything the newcomers didn't understand was taught by Mr. Hao.

With the addition of the apprentice chef too, all of them were able to work efficiently and seriously.

And finally, Su Tang could breathe a sigh of relief.

As long as the people working in the West District Restaurant were familiar with the process, she doesn't need to watch them all the time.

She was also very optimistic about Li Fan. As long as Li Fan does well, she could promote him to be the manager of the entire restaurant! She saw Li Fan secretly learning to read in private and that was a good thing.

She would let Li Fan finish with his learning, and then she would ask him to check the ledgers in two or three days.

Wasn't it easy?

Of course, these things need to be observed.

On the second day of business, no friends came to join this time, now the business would depend on whether the guests were willing to come in!

Whitelist us. Ad revenue gives additional support to the translator and keeps the site running.

Everyone was busy in the kitchen. While cooking and steaming rice, the cashier in front wiped the sweat from his head.

"Boss, before the doors of our restaurant has even opened, there are already many people lining up in front of the door."

What? According to Su Tang's modern time right now, it wasn't even eleven o'clock. Why are there so many people arriving already?

Su Tang and the staff had to go to the front and eavesdrop on the discussions outside that were talking about their West District Restaurant.

"Is the food here really so delicious?"

"Of course, I came here to eat yesterday. It tastes absolutely delicious. But the most important thing is that it's not expensive!"

"If it's really fifteen coins, for four dishes, and one soup, it's really not bad."

"Actually it can't be said to be cheap, but it's definitely not expensive!"

"The key is that you can spend another coin on rice if you have not had enough to eat!"

"Yesterday, my brother had a meal inside and even drank three bowls of mung bean soup. Even if he rested inside, the waitress in the restaurant didn't rush him out. They said that everyone was usually tired and had no place to rest, so it was all right to rest in the restaurant."

"My Gosh, is it really that good?"

"Yes, it was all instructed by their boss."

"This big restaurant is really different. It's my first time eating in such a big restaurant."

"Anyway, I came because of its reputation. Yesterday, there was a steward from the Yang Zhou merchant ship. He praised the good food here and I heard that all the people on their merchant ship will come later."

"This Ying Chun Pavilion changed to the West District Restaurant, it's surprising that it has changed so much, it's so amazing."

"Is the Boss now Su Tang? Did I remember correctly that she is only sixteen?"

"Yes her parents died and so she has to support a family."

"Then take over the family business."

"Don't be ridiculous, look at the amazing business of her breakfast shop and also look at this. We don't need to care for her. She bought it and she earned it!"

"Don't say that. This young miss is very good. There is free soup in the breakfast shop and also here. In fact, it's very good for us."

Anyway, these discussions went into the ears of people in the restaurant, and even Hao Quan Kun came out of the kitchen to listen.

Hearing that they were gossiping about their Boss, all the staff were filled with righteousness and they wanted to find them to argue with.

Su Tang intercepted them. "It's okay let them talk, let's open the restaurant and do business, let's not talk about it. "

Su Tang said that, so everyone had to give up.

But were there really so many people lined up outside?

Do they need to open the door a bit earlier?

Su Tang refused. If they opened the door early now, she would need to open it early again in the future. It was better to open the door at noon, which was an hour from now.

If they were kept waiting, in the end, they would realize when the opening time of the restaurant was and remember it.

Knowing that there were so many guests at the door, Mr. Hao immediately asked people to continue steaming rice and preparing dishes.

There should be no harm in cooking more, right?

But before opening the door, they also have to eat first.

So the customers outside the door who were waiting suddenly smelled a burst of steamed rice, the people inside the restaurant are eating right now!

They could receive the guests after lunch!

But the people outside couldn't wait anymore, and were shouting for them to open the door!

The staff of West District Restaurant had to eat quickly and then they opened the door to welcome the guests.

When the guests saw that the restaurant door was open, they wanted to lose their temper at having to wait, but when they saw that the staff members in the whole of the restaurant were neatly dressed and smiling, it made them unable to lose their temper.

This was because Li Fan taught them well.

And Su Tang had made three sets of uniforms for them so, of course, they looked clean.

The guests came in line. Guided by the young man, they first went to the cashier to pay for the lunch box. Today, there were enough people and the cashier just took the money and the waiter next to him helped give the guests a meal box.

They worked together and didn't keep the guests waiting for too long.

After taking the box, they lined up when they went to get the dishes. Today, there were two more people in front of the dish counter. The new waiters soon got started and the waiter in the middle gave them soup and rice.

The five members of staff worked together in an orderly manner.

Another person was especially responsible for collecting lunch boxes and bowls. These boxes and bowls were made of wood and they were very light, so it was easy to carry many of them in piles at one time.

And their chief steward, Li Fan, communicated between the kitchen and the hall to see which dishes in the hall were running out, while he rushed to the kitchen to get them to make it.

Needless to say, Mr. Hao, with his apprentice and the seven chef assistants, were non-stop preparing and stir-frying dishes, and only occasionally did they have a little time to rest.

Su Tang thoughtfully asked someone to take out cold water from the ice cellar to relieve the heat for everyone, which was also refreshing.

Finally, there were the six aunties who washed the dishes. They washed the dishes collected by the waiter in the specialized dishwashing pool, otherwise, there may not be enough lunch boxes and bowls in the front hall for the guests.

Before some people had questioned whether Su Tang had recruited too many people but now it seems that it was not too much at all.

Even an extra two people would be needed to reduce the pressure.

However, the good thing about their restaurant was that they don't need waiters to serve. They all let the guests line up by themselves, which also reduces the pressure, otherwise, they would be really tired!

However, the people working in the West District Restaurant thought about what their Boss had said, as long as they do well, there would be a bonus at the end of the month!

At the thought of this, they were full of energy!

There were no passers-by who weren't curious to see this restaurant so lively.

When they took a look at the menu at the entrance... good gracious, four dishes and one soup only for fifteen coins?

It wasn't a lie, was it?

But was it really a lie if so many people were inside?

Many people went inside full of doubt and went out full of belief that as long as they work in the west district, they must come here for meals!

Yuan Hong Wei, one of the guests who came yesterday was stunned when he came to the entrance. How could there be so many people?!

The people who followed him were also very surprised.

"Old Yuan, is this the restaurant you mentioned? How is it possible that such a big restaurant only costs fifteen coins a person? You're not lying to me, are you?"

Yuan Hong Wei saw him snicker and said with a stern face, "If you don't believe me, just look and see."

There were many people in the line, and they had to line up to pay for the lunch boxes.

When they got the box, they still needed to line up to get the dishes.

Fortunately, someone maintained the order, so even if there was a queue it was very quick.

When several people stood in front of the meal table, their eyes were almost out of their sockets.

Good gracious, was there such fast food? It was amazing, wasn't it?

They all do business often, and they could see the benefits of this restaurant at a glance.

This kind of thing called a lunch box was most suitable for people who don't have much time at noon. It saves them plenty of time and effort.

For such a convenient thing, everyone doesn't expect the taste to be good anymore. Just the convenience alone was enough to make the restaurant stand out.

But when they took a bite of the food, except for Yuan Hong Wei, everyone else had a shock on their faces.

How was this meat cooked?!

How could it be so delicious?

The tofu was also particularly tender and smooth!

Gosh, this city was worthy to be at the feet of the emperor! The food was convenient and delicious!

Yuan Hong Wei looked at them and smiled with satisfaction.

It seems that he wasn't alone in being shocked by such a restaurant! He's not the only one!

In Yuan Hong Wei's opinion, only this box lunch could affect the entire Cang Qin dynasty's cuisine, as long as there was a need for convenient food, they certainly needed lunch boxes.

When he is done eating, he must have a good chat with the boss! They must be praised for introducing a convenient lunch box to the workers of Yang Zhou!
