"Chester, your skill at baking steamed bread is getting better and better."
I don’t know if Cheslett’s craftsmanship is really good or if the caviar is delicious, but everyone ate up all the sandwiches.
And being praised by Zuo Menggeng, Chester was very happy.
"If you like it, I will send it often."
Hou Xun said hurriedly: "Give me some as well. This bread is softer than steamed buns, and it is just right for my teeth."
Cheslett quickly agreed.
Establishing a good personal relationship with Shandong's senior officials through food will allow the father and daughter to gain a better foothold here.
Not only Hou Xun, but also others asked Cheslett for bread.
I didn’t expect that everyone would like this kind of Western food.
Zuo Mengeng saw this and suddenly had an idea.
"Chester, have you ever thought about using this bread-baking skill to run a shop?"
Cheslett was stunned for a moment, somewhat confused about the situation.
"Mr. Commander, I am a nun. I need to serve God. I am not suitable for business."
Zuo Mengeng waved his hand.
"The church is not very busy. You still have a lot of free time. Find something to do so you won't be bored. You can also socialize, which has many benefits."
When he said this, Chester couldn't help but feel a little moved.
"I...can the food I make sell?"
Zuo Menggen laughed, pointed at the people present and said: "We people have eaten delicacies all over the world, and we all praise your bread. I think the people outside will also accept it."
Zuo Mengeng is quite confident about this.
In later generations, Western food can be found everywhere in China. Burgers, French fries, pizza, and cola have all become daily foods, which is enough to prove the Chinese people's acceptance of foreign foods.
The more he talked, the more enthusiastic he became, and he couldn't sit still on the spot.
"If you open a store, you need a lot of capital. I will invest it for you. I will also arrange professional managers for you. You will teach you how to make bread and pizza. We will share all the profits 50-50."
When he heard that Zuo Mengeng wanted to do business, Hou Xun immediately said: "Count it on me."
The two elders are so active, and the others are not stupid either.
Huang Zongxi quickly followed.
"I still have some personal money."
Liu Yiyuan is not willing to be left behind.
"I will also contribute."
In the end, more than ten people wanted to invest.
This suddenly makes the initial equity capital very considerable.
If a group of people who decide the safety of the world work together to do business, then there is nothing that cannot be done.
Zuo Mengeng has nothing to do recently, so he started to operate it himself with great interest.
"Look, this is the store sign and decoration style I designed."
The signboard designed by Zuo Menggeng has a portrait of Chester with angel wings on the back. The image is very beautiful.
The overall decoration of the store is in bright red, with large and bright windows, which makes it look very neat.
As for the interior style, future generations will definitely smile when they see it.
Because all the fast food restaurants in later generations are like that.
But for people of this era, such a hotel is still relatively novel.
"The store can not only sell bread, but also other pizzas and pastas can become signature items."
Zuo Mengeng thought of something and told Fu Xinyuan: "Go back and ask Songjiang Mansion if new paper has been developed?"
Seeing that everyone was confused, he explained: "This kind of restaurant can not only dine in, but also allow customers to take away, so there needs to be a cheap, clean and hygienic paper box in which food can be placed for convenience.
Guests bring it.”
When he said this, everyone praised him one after another.
Nowadays, the pace of life here in Shandong is relatively fast.
There are people busy with work everywhere, so how to eat quickly has become a problem.
Many people are accustomed to bringing lunch boxes from home when they go out in the morning to satisfy their hunger at noon.
However, it is obvious that many working places do not have the means to heat lunch boxes, resulting in many people having to eat cold food, which is definitely not good for health over time.
This new-style store can help people fill their stomachs quickly and will definitely satisfy many needs.
At first, Zuo Mengeng, Hou Xun and other elders discussed how to open a store, but later, because Cheslett was a woman, it was inconvenient for a group of elders, so they all changed to their own family rolls.
Xu Ruolin came back after giving birth and became the leader.
When talking about doing business, a group of women became even more excited.
Although some of these family members have gone out to work, many are still stuck in their private homes with nothing to do.
Xu Ruolin gathered them together and used her remaining energy, which made all these women extremely happy. Unexpectedly, the houses of each family became much more harmonious.
A month later, the world's first fast food restaurant opened for business in the square south of the Commander-in-Chief's Office and the Legislative Council.
The name of the store, Xu Ruolin asked Zuo Mengeng for help.
Zuo Menggeng had a bad taste and named it Pizza Hut, which was unanimously approved by everyone.
Everyone says this name is good and means good luck.
It seems that the Chinese translation of Xin Yada is universal regardless of ancient or modern times.
While the store was being renovated, word had already spread in Jinan City.
Many people know that this new-style store is owned by the Commander-in-Chief's Office.
Everyone is curious about what kind of business it is.
When it opened, there was an endless stream of people coming to explore.
Now that I'm here, no one will be stingy with such a small amount of money. I will definitely buy one as a favor to the commander-in-chief's office.
Over time, these Western foods slowly entered the public.
To be honest, although Western foods such as bread, burgers, and pizza are called fast food in later generations, they still taste good.
Especially among young people who accept new things faster, it quickly became popular.
At the same time, people quickly realized the convenience and speed of this kind of fast food.
In a short period of time, people working nearby will choose to come here to buy food for lunch at noon.
So every time at noon, you will see that this store is extremely busy. All the employees barely touch the floor. Even so, the supply is somewhat in short supply.
One time when Xu Ruolin came to inspect, she saw that there were many people waiting in line for food, which seriously delayed the business, so she thought of a way.
Since most of the people who buy food work nearby, Xu Ruolin asked the store to recruit some hard-working clerks.
Every time during meal time, I would wait at the door of each department.
Anyone who wants to buy food can give money to these clerks, and then they will run back to pay the bill and then deliver the food.
This avoids the fatigue and waiting of long queues for customers, and also alleviates the crowding in the store.
The genius commander-in-chief's wife actually invented takeout, which won unanimous praise from all shareholders.
