Chapter 161 Arriving as promised
When the whole family was present, Lin Kaiping told them everything about the conversation between Qian Laiye and him.
Lin Chuyi and his friends had no idea what Lin Kaiping's family had discussed. After they left Xinglong Restaurant, they immediately started looking for the remaining three targets.
The process of finding the carpenter went very smoothly. Before sunset, Lin Chuyi and the other two completed the skill verification of the real person and invited them to cooperate.
As to how many people will be invited to Fuyun Restaurant tomorrow, it is still unknown.
Lin Chuyi and Qian Lai were not too worried about this. Currently, Yipin Guo only needed one chef, and Jiangxinfang only needed one carpenter.
As long as one of the five people, a cook or a carpenter, accepts the invitation, they will be able to keep them and work for them, and their day will not be in vain.
As for the situation where none of the five people came, they had never considered it at all. Qian Laiye and Lin Chuyi were very confident in the chips they gave.
After the three returned to the training base, Lin Xiangxiang went straight to the kitchen and cooked a table full of delicious dishes, successfully conquering Qian Laiye's taste buds. After the three had a delicious meal, they discussed the specific procedures for tomorrow and went back to their rooms to rest.
The next morning, the three energetic people calmly finished the special breakfast provided by Lin Chuyi and set off for Fuyun Restaurant together.
The Fuyun Restaurant, which had been closed for many days, finally reopened its doors to welcome customers. However, the restaurant never did breakfast business, so no customers came in early in the morning.
The few people who received the cooperation invitation yesterday were more or less skeptical about Qian Laiye's words, but faced with the high price offered by Qian Laiye, it would be a lie to say that they were not tempted.
The next morning, they all got up early and left home, arrived near Fu Yun Restaurant in advance, and asked the surrounding vendors about the relevant matters of Fu Yun Restaurant.
The information they got matched what they heard from Qian Laiye, and their trust in Qian Laiye unconsciously increased a bit.
When they saw the door of the restaurant, which had been closed for many days, reopened and the three people they had seen yesterday appeared in the restaurant, Lin Kaiping and Liu Chongyang completely let down their guard.
Lin Chuyi was acting as a receptionist on the first floor today. When he saw Liu Chongyang, the first person to come in, he smiled and took him upstairs to the second floor, and handed him over to Qian Laiye and Lin Xiangxiang, who had been waiting for a long time.
As soon as she came down from upstairs, Lin Chuyi saw Lin Kaiping standing at the gate, and she took Lin Kaiping upstairs.
After another half hour, two people came in from the first floor. They were the carpenters that Lin Chuyi and the others had taken the initiative to find yesterday. She took them to the backyard on the first floor and asked them to sit down and rest for a while.
Not long after, the last carpenter also came to Fuyun Restaurant. After Lin Chuyi invited people in, he closed the door of Fuyun Restaurant again under the astonished gaze of Carpenter Gao.
Carpenter Gao looked at the empty restaurant lobby and swallowed subconsciously.
Lin Chuyi noticed Gao Zhu's nervous look and smiled and comforted him.
"Master Gao, don't be nervous. The restaurant is closed today. We opened the door only to welcome you all. Now that everyone is here, there is no need to open the door any further."
After listening to Lin Chuyi's explanation, Gao Zhu quickly grasped the key point, "How many people? Are there any others besides me?"
Lin Chu nodded. "Yes, there are two carpenters, one named Huang and the other named Zhang. They are already waiting in the backyard. I will take you to meet them."
"Oh, okay." When Huang Zhu learned that there were two more carpenters, he felt a sense of crisis.
I originally thought that Qian Lai came to him on his own initiative because he was impressed by his carpentry skills, and as long as he was willing, the job would definitely be his.
But now he suddenly found that two other colleagues had also arrived. It seemed that his previous thoughts were indeed arrogant.
He was not so outstanding that Manager Qian had to have him. He was just one of Manager Qian's alternatives. Manager Qian could choose anyone, but he urgently needed such a decent, stable and high-paying job right now.
Although he was confident in his carpentry skills, he did not think he could definitely surpass other carpenters.
If he didn't perform well today and lost to others and lost such a good job with good pay, how would he explain to his family when he returned?
Gao Zhu's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could pinch a fly to death. Lin Chuyi pretended not to see it. He closed the door and led his men to the backyard. Gao Zhu followed Lin Chuyi absent-mindedly and entered the backyard of the restaurant together.
Huang Qiushi and Zhang Fadada did not know each other before, but during the waiting time, they found out each other's occupations through casual chatting. After knowing that the other party was a carpenter like themselves, they became a little wary of each other.
They all remembered the purpose of their trip, and meeting their companions at the agreed location was self-evident in terms of its significance.
However, everyone was a veteran who had been in society for many years, and no one broke the window paper. They just pretended to know nothing and continued to play witty games with each other, hoping to get more useful information from the conversation.
Just then, the two saw the little girl who had brought them here before, bringing another person over. Neither of them knew this person, but he should be their colleague.
Sure enough, the next second Lin Chuyi said, "Okay, the three carpenters are here. I won't say any more nonsense. Please follow me."
After knowing that there were only three of them, Huang Qiushi and Zhang Fadada secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fewer people is good, because fewer people means more chances for them.
The three of them thought that Lin Chuyi was going to take them to see Qian Laiye, so they obediently followed Lin Chuyi. However, they did not expect that Lin Chuyi did not go far, and took them directly into the woodshed of the restaurant.
All the firewood piled up in the woodroom had disappeared, replaced by blocks of wood and three sets of woodworking tools placed on the ground.
The three carpenters were all stunned. Huang Zhu, the youngest, looked at the neatly arranged woodworking tools on the ground and murmured, "Are these all woodworking tools? Why are there several that I have never seen before?"
The oldest one, Zhang Fadada, frowned and looked around, then looked at Lin Chuyi in confusion.
"Little girl, we are here to ask for money. I wonder why you brought us here?"
"You all came too early. Manager Qian is currently busy, so he asked me to entertain you. If you can complete the test questions Manager Qian gave you within the specified time, you will naturally be able to see Manager Qian. If you cannot complete it, your trip will not be in vain."
Lin Chuyi took out a few silver ingots and said, "These are the silver ingots prepared by Manager Qian. If any master fails to complete Manager Qian's test, he can receive two taels of silver from me and leave first."
