134 Chapter 134 Buying Labor (1)

“What do the two bosses think? Are you satisfied?” Zhang Daniu asked after they were done with the tour.

“Not bad. Who did you find to paint this? It’s not half bad.” Gu Chengrui asked.

“I discovered an academy scholar who is also a nephew in our clan. Because his family is poor, he will come out to do some work, such as writing letters, calligraphy, painting, and so on.

“This time, two big and four small paintings cost ten taels of silver.”

“That’s reasonable, and it’s worth the price. Help me pa.s.s on a message. Ask him to come over when he’s free. I want him to draw something else.”

“Sure, sure, I’ll thank you for your appreciation on his behalf.”

“It’s a total of 30 silver coins this time, right?”

“Yes, only the stone slab and the painting are worth some money. Honestly, I’ve never seen this style of renovation before, but the way it turned out isn’t bad. I think I will have to change my style more and can’t just stick to the old way.”

“Simplistic is elegant, easy, and true.”

“Haha, you educated people sure have lively brains.” Zhang Daniu was stunned for a moment before laughing out loud.

After settling the bill, Zhang Daniu brought his men and left.

Gu Chengrui turned his head. “Babe, take a look and see if anything else needs to be changed. If there’s nothing else, I’ll get someone to move the tables and chairs that have been changed.”

“No need. When you’re on your way, ask if the bowls and plates have arrived. Also, it’ll be three days before the pot and the signboard are ready. We have to find a fixed palace to provide us with smokeless coal.”

Gu Chengrui smacked his forehead. “I forgot to tell you that I got to know a charcoal maker through Doctor Luo. I’ve already ordered 2,000 pounds, and it’ll be here in two days.”

“Then we’re just short of workers. The backyard has been cleaned, so let’s get some workers now.”

“Alright, we’ll head over after we’re done here.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he turned around and walked out. Then, he went to the labor market and found a few people to help clean up.

He also informed the porcelain shop and didn’t expect all kinds of tableware to be delivered in less than 15 minutes.

After Zhou Ying checked them one by one, she made sure there were no defects and paid the bill. She was surprised that these porcelain pieces cost nearly a hundred taels of silver.

There was quite a difference in price between fine and coa.r.s.e porcelain.

After arranging everything in the restaurant, Zhou Ying put all the plates and bowls into her inters.p.a.ce, washed them with the dishwasher, disinfected them, and then put them on the bowl rack.

After that, the young couple found a labor dealer with Manager Liu’s recommendation.

Zhou Ying was shocked when she saw a ghost-like woman sitting in the room, but she quickly restrained her emotions and asked, “Are you Granny Ma?”

“You’re….” The woman raised her head and sized them up. Seeing that they were dressed in ordinary clothes, she couldn’t figure out their purpose for a moment. She frowned and hesitated to speak.

“We were introduced by Uncle Liu from Hongyun Restaurant. We want to buy a few servants with till-death contracts.” Zhou Ying said.

“So you’re here from Old Liu’s recommendation. Please have a seat.” When the woman heard this, her att.i.tude immediately changed, and she greeted them with a smile.

Zhou Ying saw that she was about to pour them tea and stopped her. “Granny Ma, don’t worry about it. We’re not thirsty, so let’s see who you have first.”

“No problem. What kind of people do you want to buy? Or rather, what kind of people do you want to use?” Granny Ma immediately put down her cup and walked over.

“We want to open a restaurant, so we’re looking for someone who can cook. It doesn’t matter if they’re male or female. Also, if there are young men available, we will buy two of them.”

Granny Ma chuckled when she heard that. “What a coincidence; I have had a group of new people here recently. I’ll call them all over, and you can choose whoever you want.”

After that, she slowly hobbled to the backyard.
