Chapter 228 Earn enough face in front of relatives and friends

This year’s fifth lunar month can be said to be the busiest month in Naye Village in recent years.

Affected by Deng Shirong's family's income of several thousand from lychees and watermelons, villagers who have not yet cultivated orchards mobilized their entire families, carrying hoes, shovels, hook knives and other tools, and went to the hills above their homes to work sweating profusely.

Those villagers who have cultivated orchards have also followed suit and built wooden houses in the orchards.

If before this, the villagers of Naye Village did not pay enough attention to the hills assigned to them by the production team, then after that, every household in the village regarded the hills as their most important property.

After all, the example of Deng Shirong's family is there. With an income of several thousand a year, it is simply impossible to earn so much money in rural areas unless they open a factory or do other big business.

In late May, harvesting begins again.

Therefore, the villagers of Naye Village were very busy throughout May. However, it was different from the numb and coping style of completing tasks during the production team period. Now everyone is busy and has a heavy look in their eyes while working. The strong hope and energy are completely different from the past.

When the villagers are busy, they will inevitably talk about Deng Shirong.

Everyone in the village knew that Deng Shirong took his children to the county town to open a restaurant.

Especially some time ago, Deng Shirong came back specially to pick up his children who were on vacation. At that time, the villagers knew that his restaurant was about to open.

Now, more than ten days have passed, and the villagers are still curious about how the business will be after the hotel opened.

The main reason is that there are really no entertainment activities in the countryside in this era, and there is no TV. The villagers can only pay attention to trivial things all day long. Therefore, the topic of Deng Shirong opening a restaurant in the county town has been discussed by the villagers.

Also in this hot May, Bobai ushered in its third census.

The census results show that the total population of the county reached 975,820, including 517,081 males and 458,739 females.

It is now 1982, and the total population is about to exceed one million. No wonder Bai County has become one of the top three most populous counties in the country after World Expo.

And there are nearly 60,000 more men than women. From this ratio, we can see that there are many men here.

In a blink of an eye, the time has come to the 15th day of the sixth lunar month.

Tomorrow will be the first time that Suifeng Hotel will host a banquet for guests. Today, the hotel has become unprecedentedly busy. It must not only entertain the diners who came for today's dinner, but also take time to prepare in advance the more time-consuming hard dishes for tomorrow's banquet.

Chen Bangguo, a hotel buyer, was also very busy today. If he was short of something, he would rush to the vegetable market to buy it immediately after the master told him.

Bu Dashi, the assistant cook, was also under a lot of pressure. He was so busy that his clothes were never dry.

Although Deng Shirong was a superb cook, he chose to sit back and watch without any intention of helping because he wanted to see the hotel's true reception capacity.

If a master chef plus a helper cook, plus Deng Yunzhen, a mobile worker who can also help, can't handle the banquet with this configuration, then he will have to consider hiring an additional master chef or one or two more A helper in the kitchen.

That would naturally increase the cost of the hotel a lot, so Deng Shirong had to observe first to see if Zhang Guofu, a master chef, could handle such a scene.

In the high-end set meal ordered by Deng Shirong for 38 yuan/table, there are a total of 18 dishes paired with three soups, namely white-cut chicken, white-cut duck, white-cut goose, meatballs, egg rolls, pork belly, and yellow fried pork. , Stir-fried pork liver, sweet lotus root, glutinous rice, stir-fried pork with celery and garlic, shredded pork with green pepper, stir-fried pork slices with bamboo shoots, green onion omelette, bamboo shoot string, sweet potato string, peanut candy, green vegetables and stewed lotus root soup with pork bones, winter melon and pork ribs soup , Soybean and Pig’s Knuckle Soup.

Among so many dishes, meatballs, egg rolls, pork belly, sweet lotus root, and peanut candy all have to be prepared today, and the more time-consuming soup has to be stewed early tomorrow morning, and the rest of the dishes are also You have to make preparations in advance, otherwise you will definitely be too busy to save everything for tomorrow.

Deng Shirong did not intervene, and Deng Yuntai became the person who coordinated the overall situation.

Of course, even a small boss like Deng Yuntai has to listen to the instructions of a master named Zhang Guofu.

Because when hosting a banquet, the master chef is the core.

Usually the restaurant closes at around 7pm, but today it was busy until 9pm.

The next day.

Before dawn, Suifeng Hotel opened its doors.

Except for the two waiters, Zhang Wenjuan and Zhang Wenying, who could come later, the other employees of the hotel rushed to work early.

Of course, Zhang Guangzong, the "security manager" who has nothing to do every day, is not included in the calculation.

I started working on it before dawn and kept busy until about nine o'clock in the morning. Finally, I had all the work that needed to be prepared.

Chengdong Village.

Wang family.

Witnessed by relatives and friends, Wang Yong held his eldest grandson in his arms to worship his ancestors. After saying some auspicious words and setting off firecrackers, all the ceremonies were basically completed.

Wang Yong handed his eldest grandson to the old woman to hold, and then said to many relatives and friends in high spirits: "Dear relatives and friends, it's almost time now, and we are going to Suifeng Restaurant for dinner!"

After hearing this, the relatives and friends of the Wang family were all very interested. They originally thought they were here for an ordinary full moon drink, but who would have thought that there would be such a big surprise waiting for them. They actually wanted to eat at the largest restaurant in the county. This was really unexpected. Beyond everyone's expectations.

They have been looking forward to it since they got the news.

After all, in this day and age, not many people have the means to eat in restaurants, let alone the largest restaurant in the county.

Especially Wang Yong's daughter-in-law, she was even more happy at this time. When she got married last year, because her father-in-law invested all the money to open a factory, she spent every penny in two. Her wedding was quite shabby.

But just over a year later, her father-in-law even went to the largest restaurant in the county to treat her son to a full-moon banquet. This earned her a lot of face in front of her family, and her parents and relatives didn't even look at her. Same.

So, under the leadership of Wang Yong, more than 150 people set out from Chengdong Village and headed to Suifeng Hotel on Xicheng Road.

Ten minutes later, Suifeng Hotel, covering an area of ​​more than 1,000 square meters, appeared in front of everyone.

Before the Suifeng Hotel was built, there was no doubt that the largest hotel in the county was the state-owned hotel, covering an area of ​​just over two hundred square meters. This was already a very impressive hotel in the eyes of everyone.

But compared with the Suifeng Hotel, which covers an area of ​​more than 1,000 square meters, the difference is more than five times. The two are not on the same level at all.
