Chapter 178 What is that?
The next day, Xia Anan and the other two supervised the cleaning of the dilapidated areas in the factory, including the warehouse where potatoes were stored. They also prepared a small warehouse next to it to store the konjac.
After tasting the flavor of konjac, the two people are now addicted to it and can't wait to start producing it.
Unfortunately, the equipment has not arrived and there are no workers.
"I'll have to trouble you two to keep a closer eye on it after I return in a couple of days. Has the recruitment information been posted?"
Xiaoling replied: "I posted it on the recruitment website two days ago. I will arrange for them to come for interviews after the factory is ready. I will recruit some key management first, and then recruit employees after the equipment and other things arrive."
It is relatively easy to recruit ordinary employees, but management needs to be carefully selected.
"Okay." Xia Anan still trusted Xiaoling's work ability. After all, she was the one who arranged the two factories in Beijing.
The broken windows and doors were replaced with new ones, and the equipment in the warehouse was put away. We were busy until 3:30 in the afternoon.
The three were so hungry that they had no strength left, so they packed up the garbage and prepared to go back.
"I must eat two more bowls of rice later. I don't know if the hotel kitchen staff have finished get off work yet..." Xiaoling patted her stomach, which was already empty.
Xia Anan wiped the sweat off her face and said, "It doesn't matter if you're off work, I'll do it."
Xiaoling gave a thumbs up. After a busy day, she didn't want to move even a finger, but Xia Anan still asked her to cook.
I admire it, I really admire it.
After the three of them returned to the hotel, they asked and found out that luckily, they were still at get off work. They ordered a few dishes and went back to the room to wash up.
When the waiter saw Xia Anan and the others coming back, he immediately called the manager: "Manager Fang, they are back. They just ordered food and are going back to their room now."
Fang Zhuoyong stood up from his chair. "What did they order today? Is there the dish from yesterday?"
The waiter took out the list and looked around: "No..."
"Why would you call me if you didn't? Call me when you're done."
Fang Zhuoyong hung up the phone. Having said that, he still felt unsafe. What if the other party checked out and left with their belongings?
How could he know what that thing was? So he just went to the restaurant.
He happened to meet Xia Anan and the other two who were having dinner. Fang Zhuoyong took his big teacup and sat at the next table, listening attentively to their movements.
If the other party really talks about checking out or something like that, then he won't hesitate and will just ask what that thing is!
"I went to the village this afternoon and saw that some villagers had already started digging potatoes. I guess they were worried that we would lower the price later."
Pei Yuanbai ate his meal quickly. If he started purchasing potatoes, he would have to contact a truck for transportation.
These are not big things, but there are only three of them in Shancheng at the moment, so they have to do everything themselves.
But when I have more people in the future, I won’t have to worry about these things anymore.
"Okay, then Xiaoling and I will take the materials to go through the formalities and see if we can get all the factory-related materials processed this afternoon."
Fang Zhuoyong originally came to inquire about the dish, but the three people didn't even mention it, and they separated after the meal.
But from what the three of them said, it seemed that they were going to open a factory here, so they would not leave in the short term, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Pei Yuanbai handled all the factory-related procedures in Beijing. Although Xia Anan did not go there in person, she knew it was not easy. It took nearly a week in total.
But I don’t know if it’s because this is a small county, but their information was fully prepared, the staff was very enthusiastic, and it was a lot simpler than I imagined.
When Xia Anan and Xiaoling returned to the hotel, Pei Yuanbai had not come back yet. He called and said that potatoes were being transported to the factory and they didn't need to wait for him to eat.
"It's still early. I'll ask the waiter to bring the konjac over and ask the kitchen staff to help process it and make some snacks."
"Are you going to make that konjac tonight? An An, don't you feel tired?"
Xiaoling has been running around for factory matters today and feels her legs are weak. Now she just wants to lie down in bed and have a good sleep.
Although she wanted to eat konjac, her body was too tired.
Obviously, both of them were doing the same thing, but why was Xia Anan so much more energetic than me?
They took the elevator upstairs together, "If you're tired, go back to your room and rest. All we're going to make today is a small snack. You don't need any help, it will be quick."
Xiaoling wanted to go back to her room to rest, but she missed how konjac was cooked last time, and she didn’t want to miss it again this time.
There's nothing wrong with going back to rest after dinner.
"No, I want to accompany you and see how konjac is made so delicious!"
Xia Anan laughed: "Even if I can't see it today, there will be opportunities in the future."
"That's different. When others don't know how to do it, I'm the first one to know it!"
After the two returned to their room and changed their clothes, they went to the small kitchen provided for them by the hotel.
Xia Anan took the konjac from the waiter, which had already been thawed in clean water.
"It was frozen quite solid, so the chef thawed it with warm water and took a piece away. Do you think it's okay to cook it the same way as yesterday?" the other party asked.
"Sure, thank you. I'll just add the processing fee to our room rate."
The waiter did not forget his task and took the opportunity to ask: "What is the name of this thing? I have never seen it before."
Xia Anan took a look and said, "This is konjac. I also need some chili powder, a coarser one, and white sesame seeds and pepper oil. Can you help me get some?"
"Yes, of course! I'll get it for you right away!"
After the waiter left, Xia Anan added some hot water to speed up the thawing of the konjac.
Xiaoling pinched it and found that it looked different from what she had eaten yesterday.
The konjac that has been frozen in the refrigerator has many more pores and looks more like a large sponge.
Looking at it this way, it actually looks quite similar to tofu after being frozen in the refrigerator.
"An An, didn't you just give a piece to the kitchen to process? What flavor should we make now?"
Xia Anan: "What we asked them to make is our dinner today, but now we're going to make a snack, I'm sure you'll like it!"
--
The waiter kept mumbling the word 'moyv' but didn't know what it was.
"Manager Fang, I found out! That beautiful lady said her name is 'moyv'!"
"'moyv'? What's it made of?"
The waiter was stunned: "I didn't ask about this... She said she needed some other materials, so I came here in a hurry to get them and forgot to ask."
Fang Zhuoyong: "Really? You can't even do such a simple task, and you have to ask me to do it myself!"
