139 Chapter 139 Recruiting
“No, we didn’t strike gold. Don’t I have good cooking skills? Someone took a fancy to my skills and wanted to hire me to be a restaurant manager.
“I thought I could earn more there and wouldn’t be as tired, so I agreed to their offer.” Zhou Ying replied with a smile.
...“That’s still a good thing. Such a big restaurant manager would earn at least five taels of silver a month.” Gu Erjiang said with an envious look.
“Right, right. In the future, us brothers will follow you two around. You can’t just leave us alone.” Qian Zhuang nodded in agreement.
Recently, because they had been going out to collect soybeans every day, the villagers noticed they had started to work seriously and had begun to give off a better impression.
There were even people who had started to matchmake them. Although they were all widows or women with issues, it was a good start.
If they could continue to work steadily, it wouldn’t be impossible for them to marry a wife they liked.
“I’ll repeat the same thing. As long as you do your best, we’ll definitely continue to hire you.”
“Alright, we can rest assured with your words. We’ll start collecting vegetables from tomorrow onwards.”
“Remember to send them to the original Dongxing Restaurant. It doesn’t have a new signboard yet.”
“Alright, we’ll be leaving then.”
“Do you guys still have enough money on you?”
“Yes, it’s enough to last two more days.” Qian Zhuang said his goodbyes and walked out with Gu Erjiang.
After they left, Zhou Ying put the 20 pounds of soybeans into her interspace and went into the kitchen to start cooking.
After Gu Chengrui returned, the two had just placed food on the table when Tian Jiawang came over. When he saw them eating, he paused for a moment before turning to leave.
Gu Chengrui quickly called out to him. “Brother Tian, since you’re here, let’s eat together. We can have a drink together too.”
“Yes, yes. You boys eat first while I go to the kitchen to finish cooking.” Zhou Ying told them as she turned around and returned to the kitchen.
Tonight’s dishes were pretty delicious. There was a plate of twice-fried pork, a plate of tofu with cabbage, a plate of cold mixed shredded tofu salad, and millet porridge with black steamed buns.
After that, she fried a plate of salted peanuts and another plate of scrambled eggs with scallions.
After returning, although the three of them were sitting at the same table, Zhou Ying did not participate in the drinking. She quickly finished eating and retreated to the side.
After three glasses of alcohol, Tian Jiawang looked at Zhou Ying and said, “Sister-in-law, my sister said you were looking for me. Is there something you need? ”
“There’s something, but it’s better if Chengrui tells you,” said Zhou Ying. Gu Chengrui told him why they were stopping their current business, then said, “So, I’m afraid that I can’t supply you with more goods when we are busy.
“However, the restaurant is still short of staff. I wonder if you would like to come over?”
“But I don’t know how to help out in a restaurant.”
“What do you mean? It’s relatively easier to learn to make skewers. If you are willing to come over, you will be in charge of making skewers.”
“Yes, the meat for skewers is marinated beforehand, and the ingredients are also prepared in advance. You just have to control the heat well.” Zhou Ying agreed.
“Can I really give it a try?”
“Sure, if you can stay, you’ll get one silver a month.”
“Will you still be able to supply for tomorrow? I have a few regular customers, so I must inform them tomorrow.”
“Alright, we will supply you one more day.”
“Okay, thank you for your hard work.”
“It’s a matter of mutual benefit.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she went to the kitchen to make some braised intestines and dried tofu.
Tian Jiawang finished his meal and went home to tell his sister about the matter. He said, “Big sister, you should grow fewer bean sprouts from now on, as there’s only a limited amount of time I have to send them out to a few regular customers.”
“This is great news! Not only will your income stabilize, but you also don’t need to be exposed to the elements while working. You don’t have to worry about the bean sprouts; I can deliver them.” Big Sister Tian said happily.
“Maybe it’s better if I go. I can…”
“Don’t worry. I can do it.
“You have to work hard when you go there. This way, you might be able to land a wife in half a year.”
“Alright, if it’s too hard to go over for the delivery, you better not force yourself.”
“I know.”
