Chapter 1004: Chapter 1004 - 1005: Old Qi Is Upset
The restaurant has just opened, and the management and service model is also being run according to a standard restaurant format. Various departments have been established, but since it has just launched, everything is yet to stabilize and can only progress gradually.
Yet, the dim sum department also needs to be set up, and Cheng Su has already posted a job advertisement.
And since it has transformed into a restaurant, the former fast food format is no longer suitable for the restaurant. Since both sides are still rented stores by Cheng Su, she used one shop to create a fast food department, with the sign also saying Joy Soon Loy Fast Food. The food cart is also set up there. This is her innovative fast food operation, which is also the foundation of her success, so she certainly won’t give it up easily.
The money earned from fast food, accumulating cents over time, not only saves money but also builds popularity. Why not do it?
If the opportunity arises, Cheng Su even wishes to buy those two shops on both sides to make them her own forever!
For several consecutive days, Cheng Su was stationed at the Joy Soon Loy Restaurant. Since the restaurant had launched, everything from the decor to other aspects was more upscale than before, so quite a few people wanted to dine in the private rooms, especially with Ying Jian and the others taking the lead.
With good products and excellent decor, naturally, it attracts customers. Moreover, with opening promotions, the two-floor hall was packed for several days straight.
And after a banquet, Cheng Su secured her first big order. The city was organizing a commercial land bidding event, involving a considerable number of diners, and Ying Jian and their management assigned this undertaking to Cheng Su’s family.
Cheng Su was overjoyed; earning money can’t compare to the amount in such orders. These tasks are rare, so she and Old Song really put their heads together to ensure this battle is won. If this goes well, more such orders will follow.
However, to secure orders, networking is inevitable, and drinking also ensues. Returning home, Qi Taiguo smelled alcohol on her a few times.
"You drank again?" Qi Taiguo frowned.
"Just a couple of glasses of Shaoxing." Cheng Su sniffed herself.
"Come here." Qi Taiguo pulled her to sit down and said, "I understand socializing is necessary, but you’re still taking medicine to regulate your body. Drinking again negates that medicine. In the future, decline if you can! Earning money is important, but health is more crucial!"
"I know, it’s just that it’s opening time these days, and the guests are affluent or influential. That’s why I’m managing over there." As Cheng Su spoke, she lowered her head.
Regarding social engagements, the most involved are salespeople and those in the dining industry, especially the senior management in each restaurant. Since the visiting guests are wealthy, socializing is inevitable.
To kickstart business at the restaurant, especially during the opening phase, Cheng Su had no choice.
"I understand, but couldn’t you have someone cover for you?" Qi Taiguo said patiently, "You like doing business and making money, but the premise is not to joke around with your body. I don’t like it, nor will I allow it."
"Are you mad?" Cheng Su carefully observed his expression.
"If I’m mad, will you stop drinking? Stop socializing?" Qi Taiguo retorted.
Cheng Su hugged his arm, rubbing her face against him, and said coyly, "It’s just these opening days. I don’t even like drinking. Besides, in a few days, I’ll be starting school again and won’t be able to stay at the restaurant. So, it’s just these few days. Anyway, I’m only drinking Shaoxing and yellow wine."
Seeing her seeking sympathy and understanding, Qi Taiguo sighed, "Just these few days, don’t drink too much anymore."
Cheng Su nodded quickly, saying, "I won’t drink anymore, I won’t drink anymore. If anyone asks me to drink, I’ll say I’m adjusting my body to have a baby for my husband."
Qi Taiguo was amused by her, pinching her nose, "You!" with a tone full of helplessness.
