Spend Money on Goddess, Use more! Gain more!-Chapter 315 - 205: Bringing Shen Mumu to Heel, Zhang Yunyao’s Late Night Perk_2

Shen Mumu suddenly realized the reason.

Wu Wei certainly wasn't an ordinary guy.

It seems I need to update my strategy.

As Shen Mumu thought about this, her expression adjusted accordingly.

She looked up at Wu Wei, the light and determination in her eyes were now more intense and clear than before...

...

After Shen Mumu and Zhang Yunyao left by car, Wu Wei turned around and went back into the still brightly lit Jiyu Old Hot Pot Restaurant.

It was close to ten o'clock at night, but the restaurant still had nearly half occupancy; late-night diners were in high spirits, and the air was filled with lively energy.

Zhou Yuyan was patrolling the hall. Under the light, her profile appeared somewhat stern, even carrying a bit of subtle displeasure.

Wu Wei waved at her.

Upon seeing him, Zhou Yuyan paused momentarily before walking over expressionlessly, her voice carrying a hint of deliberate detachment: "Brother-in-law, what's up?"

She emphasized the words "brother-in-law," as if to remind him and herself to be mindful of their relationship boundaries.

"I have something to discuss with you, let's talk in the office."

As Wu Wei spoke, he headed towards the office on the second floor first.

Zhou Yuyan pressed her lips together and followed behind him.

Wu Wei sat behind the desk and gestured for Zhou Yuyan to sit as well, then got straight to the point: "I checked, and we are still a bit short on staff. Once the promotional video we shot today is released, it will likely bring a surge of traffic to the restaurant. Business on weekdays might not be worse than today, and I will continue to increase promotional investment."

"So, I've decided that starting tomorrow, we'll extend business hours to two in the morning. Closing at around ten now is too early."

"Okay, I've noted that."

Zhou Yuyan opened a document on her computer, listening attentively and noting down the key points.

Wu Wei continued: "With the extended hours, we definitely need to increase our staff. Recruit a batch of people as soon as possible, preferably those with some experience in the restaurant industry, who can start right away. Also, we need to change the shift schedule to early, middle, and late shifts."

"The early shift is relatively easy, from nine in the morning to five in the afternoon, requiring fewer staff. The middle shift is the toughest, covering the afternoon to dinner rush, from four in the afternoon to ten at night, needing the most staff. The late shift mainly handles the late-night period and closing duties, from nine at night to two in the morning, and can be extended if there are many customers."

"This way, with staggered shifts, everyone's working hours will be relatively concentrated, avoiding overwork due to prolonged business hours, and ensuring there is sufficient staff at every time period. Everyone will rotate shifts to ensure fairness. Also, although everyone's working hours will decrease, salaries should not be reduced..."

Zhou Yuyan nodded, her fingers flying over the keyboard.

"And one more thing."

Wu Wei leaned forward slightly, his tone more solemn: "You are now the manager, but we will soon open more branches. At that time, you'll need to stand at a higher position to oversee everything. This flagship store will need someone to manage the specifics, so you need to start training an assistant manager now and find a reserve manager. This will help you share the workload, and once the chain is initiated, they can smoothly take over the manager role."

Zhou Yuyan took notes and discussed some details with Wu Wei.

The entire time, she maintained a business-like demeanor.

After the discussion was mostly complete, Wu Wei glanced at the time and stood up: "That's it for now, please arrange things as soon as possible. I'm heading back."

He had just reached the office door when Zhou Yuyan suddenly called out: "Brother-in-law."

Wu Wei stopped and turned around: "What is it?"

Zhou Yuyan looked at him, her lips moved slightly as if hesitating, but she finally asked: "How did you meet those two... influencers just now?"

Wu Wei answered truthfully: "Met them on the flight from Chuandu back to Ji City. The short-haired girl in black cosplay is an influencer, and the long-haired one is her friend."

Zhou Yuyan listened, remained silent for two seconds, then looked directly at Wu Wei: "That long-haired girl... she's interested in you, can't you tell?"

"No, right?"

Wu Wei, of course, knew, but on the surface, he feigned ignorance, shrugged: "She just has a lively and outgoing personality."

"No?"

Zhou Yuyan's tone involuntarily raised a bit: "She practically stuck to you! Serving you dishes, pouring drinks, the way she looks at you... can't you feel it? Brother-in-law, are you truly ignorant or just pretending?"

As she spoke, her tone carried a bit of accusation.

"Oh... when you put it that way, maybe there is a little."

Wu Wei intentionally used an expression of helplessness and innocence: "But, if she likes me, that's her choice. I can't really do anything about it, right?"

"Then you should keep your distance from her! Don't you understand avoiding suspicion?"

Zhou Yuyan blurted out, her voice tinged with urgency and a trace of frustration, which she herself hadn't even noticed.

She took a deep breath, trying to regain a rational tone, her gaze exceptionally serious: "Brother-in-law, my sister... she truly likes you, loves you! She was hurt before, and it was hard for her to open up and trust someone again. I don't want her to be hurt again, not even a little bit!"

Upon saying this, she kept reminding herself: I absolutely cannot let my sister be hurt.

Looking at her flushed cheeks from agitation and those eyes fixed on him, Wu Wei's expression grew more serious.
