At about 8:30 p.m., when the hotel was running out of business, ye Lingtian's barbecue business began to get better. Customers came in one after another, and different from sporadic customers in the daytime, they came in groups in the evening. First, there were seven or eight people, most of them men. As a result, the shop suddenly became busy, and everyone began to work nervously. And the second floor, which has never been used today, has begun to sit.
Fortunately, ye Lingtian arranged for four waiters to work at the same time in the evening. Otherwise, without four waiters, they are really busy. You know, they need to run upstairs and downstairs. And ye Shuang, who is in charge of the cashier, is busy all the time. Finally, she can only ask the waiter to help with the cashier. In fact, the kitchen is the busiest, two people are not busy. The main reason why the kitchen is busy is that there are too many things to eat at a table for seven or eight people. It's not equal to multiplying two or three for three people. It's often multiplied by five. If there are seven or eight men, the amount may have to be multiplied by seven or even ten. Because barbecue is afraid of beer. Once several men sit together to drink beer and have barbecue, they won't leave in two hours. There will be more food.
Because there were only two people in the kitchen, many guests left after waiting for a long time, and one of them was very angry. Ye Lingtian didn't expect this situation. He didn't expect that business would be so good on the first day of business. In fact, he should have thought that Xu Xiaoqing had made a prediction that the flow of people in this place was too large. In addition, the snack street was closed, and a large group of people who wanted to eat barbecue had no place to go. Ye Lingtian made the signboard so big that he always wanted to attract a group of people.
The hot business started at 9 o'clock and reached its peak at more than 10 o'clock and 11 o'clock. At last, ye Shuang arranged to move two tables and chairs from the storage room on the street in front of the store, which used to be used as barbecue stalls. Originally, the waiters on the morning shift should be off work at 10 o'clock, but they didn't get off work in the end. They were very busy until 11:30 p.m. when the business started, the two girls on the morning shift were gradually absent.
At 12:30 in the evening, there was only the last table of guests left in the shop. Ye Lingtian and Zhou Yulin both collapsed after finishing the last table of guests' orders. They could not bear to stand because of their physical strength. They ran out of the kitchen, found a table to sit down and kept panting. You know, from 8:00 a.m. to 15:00 a.m., we have been standing there, standing on the fire, and constantly turning around in the kitchen for more than four hours. We can imagine the labor intensity. The two men were wet to the point that their trousers were running water.
Ye Shuang came with a few bottles of frozen mineral water and gave them to ye Lingtian and Zhou Yulin.
Ye Lingtian unscrewed the lid and drank it. After drinking it, he felt more comfortable. After lighting a cigarette, he felt a little tired. Then he said to Ye Shuang, "Ye Shuang, if there are any more guests coming, you can tell them that we have sold out today and let them come back tomorrow. We won't receive any more guests this evening.
"Well, I think so too. It's too hard. I've been busy for several hours, and I'm dizzy at the cash register. At last, I can't figure out the accounts. Just after recalculating, I found that I made three miscalculations. I've collected more than 100 yuan less. I'm so stupid. The main reason is that we were too busy at that time. Everyone was urging us. We had to add the list one by one with the calculator. We made a mistake. Ah, my hands are sour now, and my stomach is starving to death, "said Ye shuangdu with a mouthful. She charged less than 100 yuan, which made her very depressed.
"It doesn't matter. Just pay attention later. I didn't expect business to be so good tonight. Well, take two bottles of water to your two classmates. They are too tired tonight. I'll fry some dishes, let's have some supper. "Ye Lingtian smiles, stands up and goes into the kitchen again.
They have had dinner. All restaurants are the same. The staff will have dinner at about six o'clock before opening in the evening. But now it's nearly one o'clock at twelve. Can we not be hungry after six or seven hours of high-intensity work?
Ye Lingtian went to the kitchen with a tired body and fried five or six dishes. The amount was enough. They were all good dishes. Everyone was tired and hungry. Of course, they had to eat better.
The two waiters left after a little meal. Ye Lingtian could feel that they were tired, and he felt a little sorry.
Wait until the last table after the guests settle the bill to go, ye Lingtian in front of the shop door to half pull down, no longer pick up the guests. Three people are sitting in front of the table. Ye Lingtian and Zhou Yulin are drinking beer and eating this dish. They are the two most tired people. They are too tired to talk.
"Ye Shuang, please give me today's money to see how much the running water is tonight." ye Lingtian lights a cigarette and takes two mouthfuls and says to Ye Shuang.
Ye Shuang nodded, and then went to the front desk to order money.
Ye Lingtian raised the wine bottle and touched Zhou Yulin, saying: "I'm sorry, I'm tired today.".
"I'm not afraid when I'm tired. It's a pity that I lost a few guests today, especially the one with a lot of people at that table, who made a lot of money less," Zhou Yulin said with some remorse.
"That's not your reason. It's my fault. There are only two people in the kitchen. I'm wrong. I have to add more people in the kitchen. Even according to the business tonight, there are at least four people in the kitchen, "said Ye Lingtian with a smile.
"Well, yes, there should be more people. Otherwise, it's a pity that the guests have left. They've made a lot less money," Zhou Yulin nodded.
"The most pitiful thing is not to make less money, but to affect our reputation, which is the biggest impact. But it's not easy to recruit people in this kitchen. Where can I find someone to work here for a while? The most important thing is that we make barbecue, not stir fry, not mainstream, recruitment is even more difficult. I have to think about something tomorrow, "said Ye Lingtian with a sigh.
"Yes," Zhou Yulin nodded.
"Brother, money clear point out" Ye Shuang with an account book and pen, a hand carrying a bag, went to the front of the table.
