Chapter 11: Recruitment Arrangements

The Parent-Child Culinary Day ended successfully with the children eating an average of 2 animal buns each, Chen Huihong becoming the most popular parent among the children, 8 children crowding in front of one cooking table, each shouting with a dough in their hand that their dough was the best and the buns pressed out by the molds were the most beautiful, 5 parents asking Chen Huihong if the molds were for sale, 3 parents trying to get Carpenter Zhang's contact information to order a set of Peppa Pig style molds, and 2 parents directly giving up the unclear dishes in the pot and abstaining.

Chen Huihong's mold buns—everyone who ate them said they were good.

Although the awards would only be announced in 4 days, Chen Huihui had obviously locked in the Best Most Popular Award in advance.

It is worth mentioning that although the parents of the krypton gold group were basically wiped out except for Chen Huihong, this hidden member, everyone agreed that this year was the best parent-child activity day. It was fun to roll for rankings in previous years, but it wasn't as fun to eat and play as this year.

Many parents suggested to the head teacher one after another that they should hold a parent-child culinary day next year. They would practice their cooking skills hard starting tomorrow, striving to roll back next year, wash away the shame, and strive to let their competitors see their true strength.

Qin Huai hadn't finished packing up his things, hadn't walked out of the parent-child kitchen, and hadn't moved the molds to the car, when he received the game prompt sound of completing the task.

"Ding, congratulations to player Qin Huai for completing the side quest 【Chen Huihong's Troubles】, obtaining the quest reward 【Chen Huihong's Affirmation】, Popularity/Traffic +100 (this quest reward will automatically take effect after opening)."

Getting the quest reward of Popularity/Traffic +100, Qin Huai felt that he was one step further away from going bankrupt in three months.

Chen Huihong, who had successfully ended the parent-child culinary day, was also in a good mood. The smile never left her face, and after getting in the car, she took the initiative to chat with Qin Huai.

"Xiao Qin, the renovation team has already started work today and will be finished tomorrow. My brother just messaged me saying that recruitment can start this afternoon. See if you want to recruit yourself or let the HR on my brother's side help you recruit, and then give it to you to look at after determining the basic list, and you make the final decision."

Hearing such a good thing as having professional HR help him recruit, Qin Huai hurriedly said: "Trouble Sister Hong, and trouble your brother. When I have time, I'll treat your brother to snacks."

"Small matter, you are the one who helped me a lot." Chen Huihong felt refreshed as long as she thought about what happened in the parent-child kitchen just now, and she wished she could go back and issue a 2000 yuan bonus to all the neighborhood committee staff to show celebration.

"Is the opening date set? Is it July 1st?" Chen Huihong asked.

"If the recruitment goes smoothly, it can open on July 1st," Qin Huai nodded.

During these few days, Qin Huai was helping Chen Huihong with intensive training at home, and Qin Congwen and Zhao Rong were not idle either. They investigated the products and prices of breakfast shops and fast-food restaurants nearby. Zhao Rong, who couldn't use Word and Excel, hand-wrote several tables and formulated the menu and price list with the experience of Qin Congwen and her running a breakfast shop for more than 20 years.

According to Qin Huai's business philosophy, the Yunzhong Cafeteria is a characteristic community cafeteria with snacks as a selling point. The focus of cafeteria operation and sales is the snacks on the first floor. As long as the stir-fry is affordable and the taste is passable, it will attract ordinary office workers nearby who pursue cost-effectiveness, stabilize the basic market, and achieve no merit or demerit.

The requirements for red-case chefs are not high; normal chefs are fine. Of course, it's better if you can recruit two chefs with good cooking levels.

As for whether the cafeteria can be done, and whether it can be done big and strong, it mainly depends on Qin Huai's craftsmanship.

If you rely on employees and not yourself when doing catering in this day and age, the end will not be much better than Seeing Ouyang's, at most not losing as much as Seeing Ouyang.

As for waiters, although the Yunzhong cafeteria has a large area, the cafeteria's business model doesn't need to recruit too many waiters. Five or six can maintain serving food, collecting cash, and occasionally clearing tables, and can even go to the back kitchen to help, mainly a small workshop model with chaotic work.

Cleaning is simple; don't recruit for now. Qin Luo cried and shouted to be a cleaner with a monthly salary of 3k, and Zhao Rong also felt that saving a little was a little. She and Qin Luo were responsible for cleaning and chores in the back kitchen, and Qin Congwen helped Qin Huai on the first floor, saving over ten thousand yuan a month.

As for publicity, it's even simpler: just distribute flyers directly.

The Yunzhong complex is located in the CBD, surrounded by office buildings and commercial circles, and distributing flyers is simply not too simple.

Qin Congwen went to a nearby printing shop and spent 50 yuan to design a simple and easy-to-understand opening special offer of 70% off for in-store consumption with a flyer. Seeing Ouyang sneaked into the local college student part-time group and found 15 college students staying at school to distribute flyers nearby at a price of 18 yuan per hour, starting from June 28th, tentatively until July 10th. If the effect is good, distribute for another 10 days.

In order not to let Qin Huai's money be spent in vain, Seeing Ouyang also applied to Chen Huihong in advance, applying to skip work for 15 minutes every two hours to go nearby to check the distribution of part-time flyers. Chen Huihong appreciated Seeing Ouyang's friendship-heavy behavior, approved the leave in advance, and stated that the time for skipping work could be appropriately extended by 5-10 minutes.

Seeing Ouyang was also very moved by this, asking Qin Huai if the flyers could be distributed for a month, and he would also go to distribute them on weekends. He was really a bit poor recently, and he couldn't even afford big bottles of "loser" drinks, which didn't fit his identity as a rich second generation.

In summary, Qin Huai felt that although the Yunzhong cafeteria that hadn't opened yet looked like a huge grass-roots team, with the bonus of Popularity/Traffic +200, it was still promising and bright.

Because Chen Huihui still had to go to school normally in the afternoon and had eaten very full in the morning, Chen Huihong directly sent Chen Huihui to school and drove Qin Huai back to the Yunzhong complex.

On the way, Qin Huai thought that the system couldn't give him a dream of Chen Huihong for no reason, and this thing must be useful, so he organized his language and asked sideways.

"Sister Hong, Huihui told me something very interesting this morning."

"Hmm?" Chen Huihong, who was driving, glanced at Qin Huai through the rearview mirror.

"She said she often dreams at night that you are holding her, and she calls you Mom." Qin Huai continued to say when he saw Chen Huihong's expression was normal, "She even specially found a dream interpreter to interpret the dream, saying that she was your daughter in her previous life and wants to be your daughter in the next life."

"You mother and daughter have such a good relationship." Chen Huihong's smile froze, and she was silent for a while before asking: "Xiao Qin, I'll ask you a question."

"I feel that you have a good relationship with your foster parents, just like Huihui and me. But for so many years, will you sometimes hope that you can live with your biological parents, will you have a grudge in your heart, will you have regrets, will you..."

Qin Huai interrupted Chen Huihong: "Of course not."

"Sister Hong, you might not know. When I was in the orphanage as a child, the director mom always thought I had ADHD. At that time, there was no concept of this disease, collectively referred to as the child's brain not being good. People nearby felt that I was a slightly normal fool, and I couldn't be adopted for a long time."

"If it weren't for my parents adopting me and spending money to cultivate me, I guess I wouldn't even be able to get into college and would have dropped out of school to work after graduating from junior high."

Qin Huai was rumored to be a fool when he was a child, mainly because he was illiterate at that time and didn't know what the exclamation mark in the top left corner and the "Game Loading..." after clicking it were. He felt that the thing was very annoying and always wanted to reach out and click it away, causing everyone to feel that he didn't look very smart.

Qin Huai deliberately used an exaggerated tone: "Just like you said, my relationship with my parents is very good, not worse than your relationship with Huihui. How could there be a grudge? How could there be regrets? I have always felt that I am very lucky to be the son of my parents. I am too happy to be happy, so how could I think so much?"

Chen Huihong was amused by Qin Huai's exaggerated tone: "Indeed, I thought too much."

"Xiao Qin, you are new here and don't know. Huihui is the same as you. She is the daughter I adopted from the orphanage after I divorced."

Qin Huai was stunned.

The corners of Chen Huihong's mouth curled into a smile unconsciously: "Actually, I was quite happy when I heard you say Huihui had a dream just now, because I sometimes have dreams too, dreaming of Huihui being held by me, calling me Mom."

"In the dream, I was quite young, at least ten years younger than I am now."

"We can have similar dreams; maybe we really have a fate." Chen Huihong said, feeling it was absurd herself, and shook her head, "Where is there any previous life and next life? My brother was fooled by someone two years ago saying that he did evil in his previous life and had to pay it back in this life, and spent over 200,000 to perform a ritual. It's all a lie."

"Don't talk about these messy things. Tell me when the opening date is determined, and I'll bring Huihui to support you then."

"Don't worry, Sister Hong, I will definitely tell you the first time!"

After returning home, Qin Huai saw the note Qin Luo left on the porch and learned that the three felt that the intelligence work of the past two days was not very perfect, so they went out to investigate the enemy's situation again today, and it was likely they wouldn't come back for dinner tonight. Zhao Rong told Qin Huai to eat whatever he wanted.

No one was at home, so Qin Huai sat on the sofa and clicked on the game panel to check the newly obtained 【Chen Huihong's Affirmation】.

【Chen Huihong's Affirmation】: The affirmation of the enthusiastic Auntie Chen. Obtaining this title has a high probability of obtaining Chen Huihong's favor and help, and a small probability of letting her open her heart and tell you some unknown little secrets.

So this is the reason why Chen Huihong opened her heart in the car?

She didn't say any secrets either. Since Chen Huihui is the daughter Chen Huihong adopted from the orphanage after divorce, many people know this, and Chen Huihong is also very frank, so it doesn't count as a secret at all.

However, this title is quite useful. As the number one person in charge of Yunzhong complex, Chen Huihong's favor and help are quite weighty.

Qin Huai silently gave this title a like.

Great, one step further away from losing money.

So now there's only...

Qin Huai moved his finger silently to 【A Dream of Chen Huihong】 in the item bar.

Peeking at other people's dreams is a bit perverted, but...

Want to see.

Take a shallow look.

Qin Huai returned to the room, cautiously locked the door, and clicked 【A Dream of Chen Huihong】.

【Whether to enter 【A Dream of Chen Huihong】, Yes/No】

Enter? Is it holographic? Immersive experience?

【Yes】

【Dream loading—】
