Chapter 101 Training Waitresses
The attack launched by Sushiyuan on Taohua Dessert did not cause Tong Huaqiong and her group of bad guys to panic.
Everyone should do what they should do.
Tong Huaqiong fully enjoyed the three-day holiday without having to set up a stall.
She used her home oven and found that the cakes and pastries she baked were comparable to those baked in later commercial ovens.
I have to say that Qin Qingyou has a bit of craftsmanship in him, as he built such a perfect oven for her.
After Ma Huateng sold the shop to her, the first thing she decided to do was to ask Qin Qingyou to repair two ovens.
Tong Huaqiong had taken a close look at Ma Huateng's wine shop last time. There was a large yard behind the shop, which was simply a shop chosen by God. In that large yard, one could build a baking oven and two storage rooms.
Tong Huaqiong graciously placed the various baked cakes on the table for her family to eat.
Even though the family sells pastries, they cannot afford to feed the whole family. After all, every bite costs money, and the Gu family is not yet at the point where they have no shortage of money.
The whole family was so happy that they didn’t even eat the meal but just had snacks.
Especially Gu Yaozu, who stuffed all kinds of cakes and pastries into his mouth like a starving ghost. If Liu Yue'e hadn't stopped him, his stomach would have burst.
Tong Huaqiong didn't really want to eat snacks. She looked at her own mud house and the shabby furniture. She wanted to renovate the house and make it more comfortable, but all of these required money.
When she makes a lot of money, she will renovate her house to make it beautiful and comfortable like Mr. Huang's.
Thinking of this, she felt full of energy.
Gu Dashu and Gu Jingzhe were sent to the town by Tong Huaqiong to keep an eye on Manager Feng and his nephew. Gu Dahan diligently guarded the family's acres of wheat, while Chen Sufen was busy doing housework at home.
Tong Huaqiong was inspired by the enthusiasm and did not intend to waste her three-day vacation, so she started to take Liu Yue'e for vocational training.
The Taohua Dessert shop must be opened, and according to her plan, Liu Yue'e will be the first waiter of Taohua Dessert.
Most stores these days have no sense of service, especially towards ordinary customers. She would never allow this kind of situation to happen in her store.
Although we cannot treat customers as absolute gods like some restaurants in later generations, it is important to provide services that make customers feel at home.
Liu Yue'e's first reason for being a waitress is her good looks. Isn't that nonsense? When she was a girl, she was the village beauty of Qinghewan. The fact that she was valued by the beauty dog Gu Dashu at the time shows that the top spot on the village beauty list is not inflated.
Secondly, although Liu Yue'e is a chatterbox who likes gossip and has a bad temper, she is lively, cheerful and contagious. Even though Tong Dajiao had such a bad reputation before, the young wives and aunts in the village were willing to welcome Liu Yue'e in to chat, which shows that Liu Yue'e still has a unique charm that can win people's hearts.
For a daughter-in-law like this, it would be most appropriate to be trained to work as a waitress in Taohua Dessert.
Liu Yue'e was very happy at first.
At that time, all the shop assistants were men. Even rouge shops and jewelry shops whose target groups were women rarely had female assistants. Her own shop had not been taken over yet, and the first assistant that her mother-in-law considered was Liu Yue'e.
What does this mean? It means that my mother-in-law thinks highly of me.
Not to mention Qinghe Bay, even in the entire Yanguan Town, which mother-in-law would be willing to let her daughter-in-law show up in public? But her mother-in-law was willing, and this was exactly what Liu Yue'e wanted.
She went crazy gossiping about other people's business in Qinghe Bay every day. Qinghe Bay was too small for her to display her talents, so she wanted to go to the shop and communicate with customers.
She believed that with her eloquence, she could definitely win over all the customers of Taohua Dessert Shop.
Tong Huaqiong's training methods were completely in line with later standards. Her smile and enthusiastic attitude were just right, neither flattering nor hypocritical.
Liu Yue'e felt it was strange at first, but was too tired to move after a day's work.
If her mother-in-law hadn't been sincere and really wanted her to participate in Peach Blossom Dessert, she would have thought that her mother-in-law was deliberately treating her harshly.
Let's talk about the standard smile showing eight teeth. She never knew that there were such rules and regulations for a smile. She thought it was simple. Isn't it just smiling? Isn't it just showing eight teeth?
But when I really laugh, it's either too much or too fake.
The mother-in-law let her practice in front of a broken mirror at home, but she was not satisfied, so she asked her to practice by biting chopsticks.
Her mouth was swollen from practicing so much.
Tong Huaqiong not only asked Liu Yue'e to practice smiling, she also asked her to practice her manners.
There were basically no female waiters in the shops in the town. The female waiters Liu Yue'e met were basically the shop owners' wives. According to Tong Huaqiong, they had a stereotyped image of female waiters.
He put his hands on his waist, held a handkerchief, and was in a hurry, and would argue with people from time to time.
This is not the fault of the boss ladies. After all, it is not easy for women to do business in this era. They have to establish an image of being shrewish and not to be messed with.
Isn’t the same true of her image as Tong Huaqiong?
Tong Huaqiong is the boss lady and she can do this, but if she wants to create the number one internet-famous pastry in Yanguan Town, she must come up with something fresh and refreshing.
Then let’s practice with Liu Yue’e first.
Liu Yue'e stood straight against the wall with a pair of chopsticks in her mouth.
Tong Huaqiong ordered Gu Yaozu to supervise her. If she moved a little, her lackey son would shout and complain, and Tong Huaqiong would ask her to practice more.
She had pain in her mouth, back and legs, but even in this condition, her mother-in-law said that she was being gentle to her by not asking her to practice with a rice jar on her head.
Liu Yue'e was so tired that she had no temper. She had never suffered so much since she married into the Gu family.
She was a little envious of her sister-in-law Chen Sufen. Although baking cakes was tiring, at least it gave her freedom.
She originally thought that she could act like the boss lady by being eloquent at Taohua Dessert, but Tong Huaqiong clearly told her that she would be a waitress at Taohua Dessert and if she dared to act like the boss lady she would have to go home and farm.
Since you are a waiter, you must have the awareness of a waiter, for example, you must not have conflicts with customers and you must have good manners and attitude like the current training.
My mother-in-law said that this is the only way to retain customers.
She once wanted to back out, but she was unwilling to do so.
The temptation to go to town was too great.
What's more, if she didn't participate in the management of Taohua Dessert Shop, she was afraid that the shop would be controlled by Gu Taohua and the first wife's family in the future, and their second wife would get nothing.
This was something that Liu Yue'e, who always loved to take advantage of others, could not tolerate.
Liu Yue'e practiced like this until the next day, and she felt as if she had died.
The next afternoon, when Tong Huaqiong continued to train "waiters" at home, Ma Huateng came to the door.
Tong Huaqiong was delighted when she saw Ma Huateng coming in. She knew that he had rushed to Qinghe Bay without even waiting for three days, which meant that Ma Huateng had accepted her conditions.
Tong Huaqiong went to meet him in high spirits. It was not enough for the other party to just agree to sell the shop to her, as the price had not yet been decided.
She still wants to bargain.
"Aunt Tong, I've been looking for you in town for a long time. Why aren't you setting up your stall today?" Ma Huateng came to the Gu family compound, saw Tong Huaqiong, and asked.
Tong Huaqiong let Ma Huateng into the house and ordered Liu Yue'e to serve Ma Huateng according to her service requirements. She straightened her back and smiled with her eight teeth showing. Ma Huateng was so frightened that he almost knocked over the teacup.
