Chapter 81 Employers shall not exceed eight

"Xiaochen, you are back!"

With a crisp call, Chen Shuhan's bright smile appeared in front of Feng Xiaochen. Just now, she was preparing dinner dishes in the kitchen. She didn't hear Feng Xiaochen and Zeng Wenxia's teasing. It was not until Zeng Wenxia ran in to report the message that she was overjoyed and threw down the kitchen knife and came out to meet Feng Xiaochen. Of course, before she came out, she did not forget to wash her hands in the basin as fast as possible, and then wiped it dry with an apron. After a long time of separation, she could not make her hands greasy, right?

"Sister, I'm back!"

Feng Xiaochen responded with a smile, and then prepared to come forward and hug Chen Shuhan. Chen Shuhan suffered a loss once, and Zeng Wenxia was still next to him at this time, how could she let Feng Xiaochen hug him again? She smiled and flashed to the side, then scolded with a stern face: "What are you doing, no big or small!"

"I'm happy to see my sister." Feng Xiaochen said. He also knew that this 21st century etiquette was too shocking nowadays. The performance just now was just to tease Chen Shuhan. He shook the menu in his hand to Chen Shuhan and said, "Sister, what's your name?"

"The menu." Chen Shuhan said, then smiled and explained: "Is it a little dirty? I will copy one again in two days. In fact, many of the restaurants are regular customers now, so they don't have to look at the menu."

"I mean, what's going on with your revolutionary pig liver?" Feng Xiaochen asked.

Chen Shuhan's face suddenly became awkward, as if he wanted to laugh, but he felt it was not suitable. She glanced at Zeng Wenxia, ​​then walked forward, put her mouth to Feng Xiaochen's ear, and whispered: "This is my name. This dish is called Bandit Pig Liver, and it is a famous dish in Hunan Province."

"Puff!" Feng Xiaochen suddenly burst into laughter. After Chen Shuhan said this, he understood. Bandit pork liver is a famous dish in Xiangxi. It is made of hot and spicy. It is made of fast-pumping and has a bit of wild game domineering, so it is named. Feng Xiaochen had eaten this dish in his previous life. Chen Shuhan didn't know where he learned how to make this dish, but he was worried that the word "bandit" in the menu would cause some unnecessary criticism, so he took his own initiative to change it to a new name. But she didn't think about it. Isn't this a bigger excuse to change the bandits into a revolution? If it were reported by the revolutionary masses a few years ago, she would at least be considered a current crime?

"What are you laughing at! Don't laugh!...You laugh again!"

Chen Shuhan was laughed by Feng Xiaochen. She stamped her feet and wanted to reach out to cover Feng Xiaochen's mouth. As a result, not only did she not stop Feng Xiaochen, she was also infected and laughed. It would be fine if she didn't think about changing her name, but the more she thought about it, the more she felt Coke. Chen Shuhan also felt that she was too humorous.

Zeng Wenxia was still watching from the side at first. Seeing the two of them so close, Chen Shuhan was leaning against Feng Xiaochen's ears when he was talking, and then laughed tacitly. She knew that she was a little extra here, so she quietly slipped away and went to the kitchen to help cut vegetables.

After finally laughing, Chen Shuhan pulled Feng Xiaochen to sit down at a table, poured water for him, and then sat opposite Feng Xiaochen, looking at him with a warm face.

"Xiaochen, I haven't seen you for a few months. You have grown up and your face has become old." Chen Shuhan said.

"Sister, you are too thin, are you tired?" Feng Xiaochen said. Compared to when he left, Chen Shuhan did look a lot thinner. The sweater he wore was a little empty, his chin was much pointed, and there was a little black shadow under his eyes, which seemed to be lack of sleep. However, her spirit was much better than that time, with the light flowing between her eyebrows and eyes, which was a look of intertwining satisfaction and confidence.

Chen Shuhan pulled his clothes to show off his waist, then smiled and said, "It's good to be thinner. Now girls are popular to lose weight. Do you think my sister is much slimmer?"

"Sister has always been slim, but I can't be slim anymore. If I continue to be slim, even monkeys want to hit you, and they will hit you three times in a row." Feng Xiaochen warned seriously.

Chen Shuhan didn't understand Feng Xiaochen's imagination for a moment and asked blankly: "Why do monkey want to hit me?"

"Because you have become a bone demon." Feng Xiaochen said.

"Bah!" Chen Shuhan spitted, pointed his finger at Feng Xiaochen's forehead, and said, "When did you learn to be so slick!"

After the fight, Chen Shuhan began to report the restaurant's business to Feng Xiaochen. She had told Feng Xiaochen some of these situations in the letter, but they were not detailed enough, so she could introduce them in detail at this time.

According to Chen Shuhan, the restaurant business is very good now, with income of 50 or 60 yuan a day, and the cost of buying vegetables, coal and fire is only about 30%. The salary of Chen Shuhan and Zeng Wenxia is even less worth mentioning. In this way, the gross profit of the restaurant can reach 1,000 yuan per month. It has been three months since the restaurant opened, and the accumulated profit has reached 3,000 yuan.

Before Feng Xiaochen went to the capital, he specifically explained that the profits of the restaurant were kept by Chen Shuhan first and did not have to be handed over to Feng Lingyu. Feng Lingyu had no idea about the profits. Although he could feel that the restaurant made money, he could not have thought that such money was made. You should know that the salary of an ordinary agency staff at that time was only fifty or sixty yuan. Chen Shuhan could earn 1,000 yuan a month when he opened a restaurant, which was completely beyond the imagination of normal people.

"I have all my money in the bank. I dare not exist in the bank on Qinshan Lake. I always go to other places to deposit it, and no one knows me there. Also, I am afraid that depositing too much money in the same bank will make people suspicious, so I divided it into five passbooks..." Chen Shuhan reported to Feng Xiaochen.

"It's only 3,000 yuan, have you saved five passbooks?" Feng Xiaochen was speechless.

Chen Shuhan said with confidence: "It should have been like this. That's it. Someone in the bank asked me, saying that I saved 600 yuan, where did it come from? Is there any overseas Chinese at home?"

"Xinling is still poor, indeed." Feng Xiaochen sighed. If it were in the capital, a family with a deposit of thousands of yuan would not seem to attract people's attention. For example, Hao Yawei saved thousands of yuan by saving smoking. In Xinling, there were not so many department-level cadres, and everyone's salary was relatively low, so it was rare for families to have a deposit of hundreds of yuan. At that time, the bank did not pay much attention to privacy protection. Seeing that Chen Shuhan could save hundreds of yuan, the bank staff first went to the gossip.

"Xiaochen, it's too late today. Come here early tomorrow morning. I'll take you to withdraw all the money." Chen Shuhan said.

Feng Xiaochen waved his hand: "No hurry, why are you taking it out?"

"This is your money." Chen Shuhan said, "Don't you have to hand it over to your family?"

Feng Xiaochen corrected: "It's not just mine, I said that I have to count 20% of your shares."

"I really don't want it!" Chen Shuhan said, "I get a monthly salary and I'm still eating in the store. I've taken a lot of advantage. I don't want any of the money I earn in the store."

Feng Xiaochen ignored her and said to himself: "I think so. Didn't you say that the profit is already 3,000 yuan? You go and withdraw 1,000 yuan as a dividend this year. If you take 200, I take 800 yuan... Don't refuse, if you refuse again, I will be anxious! Listen to me, plan the remaining money, and use it to expand production after the New Year."

"Expand production?" Chen Shuhan widened his eyes, "How to expand production?"

Feng Xiaochen said: "Didn't you just say that our business is particularly popular? Look, last year, the country generally adjusted wages for employees, and this year there will definitely be a leveling adjustment, and the coverage will be expanded. With money, everyone will have more opportunities to go to restaurants, so our business will be even more popular. Now the venue of this restaurant is still too small and there are not enough people, only you and Zeng Wenxia, ​​which is not enough.

My idea is that after the New Year, you can find a new venue, or rent the house next to you and expand the storefront. Then, you should have at least six or seven more people. Don’t go to cook and cut vegetables yourself, concentrate on managing, and develop more new products like revolutionary pig liver..."

Speaking of this, he felt a punch in his chest. There was no doubt that Chen Shuhan was annoyed that he had brought up his old words again and imposed a fine punishment on him. Feng Xiaochen made a face and continued:

"I asked you to come out, not to make you tired and thin into a white bone spirit. I hope you can become a management talent. We will expand the restaurant to 10 people this year, and next year it will expand to 100 people, and then..."

"What are you talking nonsense?" Chen Shuhan interrupted Feng Xiaochen's imagination and said, "We are self-employed people, how can we hire so many people? I asked them, and they said that hiring 8 people is capitalists and they are going to be defeated. Individual businesses in Xinling usually work in their own families, and at most they hire two or three small workers. No one dares to hire 10, let alone 100."

"Who said that hiring 8 people is a capitalist?" Feng Xiaochen was a little confused. How could such a thing be accurate to the single digits?

He didn't know that the number of workers had caused a big discussion back then. Some experts dug out the original work of Marx and Engel, read it carefully in the middle of the night, and saw the words from the cracks. It said that there should be no more than 8 employees, otherwise it would be capitalism. Feng Xiaochen had never paid attention to this matter, so of course he was not clear.

"Xiaochen, I think we should be more responsible. It's pretty good now. If you can earn 1,000 yuan a month, you will be a household in a 10,000 yuan a year, and you are not satisfied." Chen Shuhan advised kindly.

Feng Xiaochen said: "I want to do more than that. Sister Chen, you don't have to worry about this. I always have a way to solve it. What you have to do is to think about how to make the restaurant bigger. As for policy regulations, I will deal with it."
