Ten years of film queen, finally became a top star

Chapter 242 Fellow Countryman

The task was briefly announced at the entrance of the TV station, and then the guests moved to their work locations.

Yuyan is not far from the TV station, so we didn’t take the bus and everyone set off in a car.

Yu Jiang and Ran Feng were in the same group, so naturally they went together.

Due to the presence of the camera, the two did not talk about any private matters along the way, and only talked about some topics related to work assignments.

Today's positions were assigned by drawing lots, and Ran Feng drew the position of dishwasher.

His luck was also amazing. Among the three types of jobs, dishwasher had the lowest income.

Dong Manshu and Qi Lecheng are waiters, Kong Lingxi and Huo Jingshu are cleaners. Waiters have the highest income, followed by cleaners.

Yu Jiang sighed, "It looks like I'm going to be ranked last again this time. I hope the low salary won't make me so tired."

It is dinner time now, and the Royal Banquet is also doing a booming business.

The lobby manager was arranging work for the guests at the back door. The waiters had to be in place quickly, but the cleaners and dishwashers were not so hurried.

Yuyan has very high requirements for staff who directly face customers, so Dong Manshu and Qi Lecheng cannot start work directly, but instead observe and learn.

After changing into the uniform, first follow the teaching teacher to familiarize yourself with the terrain of the area, then greet guests at the door, and wait for the teacher to be free for detailed instruction.

It is not the busiest time for cleaners now, so Kong Lingxi and Huo Jingshu are receiving instruction at the same time.

The cleaning work of Yuyan has a unified process and standard. After teaching, they first clean the more private area in the back.

The original site of the Imperial Banquet was an old royal palace. The front was decorated like a normal dining restaurant, while the back was designed entirely in antique style, with pavilions and towers, and a different scene at every step.

The private rooms in the antique area are like the rooms in the old royal palace. They only accept reservations for tables, and the minimum consumption is not easily affordable, so they are not as popular as the main building.

Customers who dine in the antique area are usually there for business banquets. They only want a good environment and do not have high requirements for the taste of the dishes.

Due to various safety standards, the kitchen is a certain distance away from the antique area, and the table presentation must be exquisite, so dining here will more or less affect the taste.

But it makes sense for customers to choose this way of dining. Business banquets are definitely prestigious here. Even the incense in the antique area is matched by the perfumer according to the season.

At this time of year, as soon as Kong Lingxi and Huo Jingshu entered the box in the antique area, bursts of plum fragrance wafted out from the incense burner, which calmed their minds.

When the work started, the two new cleaners followed their master closely, doing whatever they were asked to do, working diligently and without complaint.

Yu Jiang and Ran Feng from the back kitchen cleaning area also put on apron sleeves and followed the master to learn how to clean dishes.

Neither of them is a hard worker. Yu Jiang basically learned his working experience from this program, and now he is much better than before.

Ran Feng is much better than Yu Jiang, but his work is limited to housework. It is still difficult to make a living from this.

It is difficult for a master to train two newcomers with no basic knowledge.

The teacher who taught them was an auntie who seemed to have a good personality. Although she looked kind, she was very serious when teaching.

"The kitchen utensils are washed in the three pools on the far left, and the tableware is washed in the three pools on the right. After washing, they are placed here and then taken to be disinfected..."

Both of them can still remember the theoretical knowledge, especially Yu Jiang. She may not be good at practical operation, but she definitely has a good memory.

Tableware is more valuable than kitchen utensils, so the first task they received was to clean the kitchen utensils.

Rinse with clean water the first time, use detergent the second time, and rinse the third time.

The general process is like this, but there are some minor differences between different kitchen utensils that need to be paid attention to.

When the aunt was demonstrating, she explained it to them one by one, and both of them remembered it very clearly, but they didn't do very well in practice.

If you remember the theoretical knowledge clearly, you will not make any mistakes when practicing as long as you are careful and attentive.

There are usually three employees in each cleaning line group, and there are six groups in the back kitchen cleaning area of ​​an assembly line like this.

The aunt is in charge of the last process of this group. She can help them check for deficiencies and fill in the gaps. If the work is really excessive, it will also facilitate rework.

At first, they were both very nervous. After all, it was their first time doing this kind of work, so they had to concentrate very hard.

Gradually, both of them got the hang of it, and now there were no kitchen utensils that needed to be reworked, and they slowly relaxed.

Once you relax, this kind of work becomes boring, especially for Ran Feng who is sleep deprived and almost falls asleep while standing.

The aunt also noticed it and started to find topics to chat with them. Yu Jiang then remembered that it was his job to find topics to talk about, and began to rack his brains again.

"Auntie, how old are you this year? Is there anyone else at home?" There's no way around it, Yu Jiang's ability to find topics is just like that.

After people answered her questions one by one, she didn't know what to ask anymore, and it was her aunt who took the initiative to gossip.

"What is the relationship between the two? They look like a perfect match." When the aunt started gossiping, she didn't even try to speak Mandarin. Her strong southern accent sounded very nice.

It was difficult for Yu Jiang and Ran Feng to answer gossip like this. They didn't want to lie, but they couldn't make their relationship public in such an occasion.

There was no other way, so Yu Jiang had to change the subject, "Auntie, your accent is so nice, where are you from?"

Ran Feng continued, "Auntie is from Jiangsu and Anhui, right? Her accent sounds very similar to my family's."

"Yes, we are still fellow villagers!" The aunt looked very excited, and it seemed that she rarely saw fellow villagers.

Jiangsu and Anhui are very close to Shanghai. Even if most people from Jiangsu and Anhui choose to work outside, their first choice is to go to Shanghai rather than go north to Beijing.

Yu Jiang smiled and asked Ran Feng, "So your hometown dialect sounds so nice, why haven't I heard you speak it before?"

In fact, Ran Feng left home at a young age, and now he can understand Su Wan's language, but he still said proudly: "I'm afraid you can't understand."

"Tsk, you're bullying us northerners because we don't speak dialect!" Yu Jiang rolled his eyes at him and turned to chat with his aunt, "Then why did you come to such a faraway city to work?"

Auntie sighed, "There's nothing I can do. My son works here, so I should stay close to him so he doesn't worry about me."

It turned out that my aunt's son had settled down in Beijing and worked there. After her grandson was born, my aunt came to Beijing to help take care of him. Now that the child is in kindergarten, my aunt couldn't stay idle at home, so she came out to work.

From time to time, the aunt's Mandarin was mixed with a few words of Su-An dialect that Yu Jiang couldn't understand, and Ran Feng often came close to translate.

The three of them chatted haltingly, and Ran Feng couldn't understand some of the authentic Su-An dialect, so he could only guess.

After the aunt finished talking about her family's affairs, it became clear that the relationship between the two young people was unusual.

Although she didn't say much, from their subsequent contacts, she had already tacitly accepted that Yu Jiang and Ran Feng were a couple.
