Guo Chunyu reassured Tong Xuelu once again. “Don’t worry, Manager Tong. We will do as we are told and never leave early or take off in the middle of the day for no reasons!”

Guo Weiping and Meng Qingqing, too, nodded.

Tong Xuelu nodded in content and went on saying, “In addition, we need to improve our attitudes. In short, no more yelling at the customers!”

It was still too early in time and unnecessary to suggest service with a smile. But it was never too early to stop the practice of yelling at the customers all the time.

That did not bother Meng Qingqing a bit. She was a shy one and never had the courage to yell at the customers anyway.

It had always been Tan Xiaoyan who was yelling at the customers.

Guo Weiping cared about it even less. He worked in the kitchen and rare ever had interactions with the customers.

Guo Chunyu thought about it some and said, “But, Manager Tong, but if people fought over seats and get into fights at the restaurant? We still can’t yell at them?”

Tong Xuelu said, “You can simply ask them to leave if that ever happened.”

Guo Chunyu thought about it some and nodded that she understood.

Tong Xuelu brought up a few other requests and everyone agreed to everything.

She then called the meeting off and headed over to the Commerce Department to attend meetings and prepare for the transition.

The government-operated restaurant rolled up to the Commerce Department and belonged to the country. All of their proceeds go to departments above them.

The operation fees were kept by Liu Dongchang in the past and had been taken back when he was arrested.

Now Tong Xuelu need to pick up the money for purchasing the ingredients.

The security guard at the Commerce Department was shocked when he saw Tong Xuelu  showing up to the meeting as the manager.

He checked her identification document repeatedly before letting her go inside.

When Tong Xuelu walked inside the conference room, everyone looked over at her immediately.

“A woman came? Did she have the wrong place?”

“Exactly, right? Hey, little girl, are you at the wrong place?”

Tong Xuelu looked at them nonchalantly. “No, I am at the right place. I am the manager of the City Nan government-operated restaurant. I am here for the meeting.”

BOOM!

All the men there were stunned when they heard that.

“She’s a manager? Since when are there female managers?”

“Exactly. Besides, she is so young. Will she be capable of handling the job?”

“I suggest for you to keep your voice down. You should figure that she has strong background if she was able to be placed in a position like this at such a young age.”

All the whispering in the room stopped after that and the room fell silence.

Everyone eyed Tong Xuelu up and down stealthily but nobody came up to greet her.

Tong Xuelu was not bothered by that. She found an empty spot and sat down.

She viewed everyone there as resources. Nevertheless, currently, these resources not yet had any respect for the girl who was placed into her position out of the blue.

As such, she was in no hurry to greet anyone there.

They would only look down on her more if she tried to warm up to them.

She would need to earn their respect with actual achievements.

Ten or so minutes later, the management of the Commerce Department arrived.

The manager of the Commerce Department was a middle-aged man in his 40s or 50s. He had on him a black traditional garb and a very serious look.

He summarized some of the issues with the government-operated restaurants and then asked, “Is the manager from City Nan branch here?”

Tong Xuelu stood up and said, “Yes, I am here. Hi Manager. I am Tong Xuelu and I am the new manager of the City Nan branch.”

Manager Lin gave her a look and said sternly, “Comrade Tong, are you confident that you can do a good job manager the City Nan branch? If you don’t, I will allow you to resign right now.”

Tong Xuelu’s voice was crisp and loud. “Manager, please be assured that I will do a good job managing the restaurant!”

Some of them men there shook their head, others snickered, and some others felt that Tong Xuelu had no idea what she was talking about.

With the poisoning incident at the City Nan branch, customers would be leery to visit the restaurant even after they had reopened.

Manager Lin, “Very well then. I will give you three months’ time to get the restaurant back on track.”

Tong Xuelu’s red lips curved. “I don’t need three months. All I need is on month.”

The conference room fell silence again after she had said that.

All the more the others looked at Tong Xuelu in mocking way.

She surely was out of her mind, thinking that she could bring the restaurant back on track in just a month?

What a joke!
