Chapter 167: Found a Treasure (Second Update)

Luo Li comforted Xu Ying a few more words, which made Xu Ying stop her tears, this kind of thing is a shame for men, especially Xu Zhongqiang has not recovered from this matter, if he chases and keeps asking, it will only backfire, he asked Xu Ying to go back to rest first and return to the house by himself.

Seeing Luo Li come back, Xu Zhongqiang also felt embarrassed, what are he crying about as a big man here, Luo Li acted as if nothing had happened, he said to Xu Zhongqiang: "Brother Xu, Teacher Xu has to go to class tomorrow, she went back to rest, you live in that bed, I am not usually at home, you will stay with me for a while, the time is not early, you should go to bed early." ”

After Luo Li explained, he gave Xu Zhongqiang a quilt, he climbed into bed and went to sleep, he was really tired during this time, Luo Li fell asleep after lying on the bed for a while.

He was lured by the smell of food to wake up in the morning, Xu Ying went to study early, and had no time to cook, usually Xu's mother cooked, but this morning the smell of this dish is obviously different from the past.

Luo Li got up and saw Xu Zhongqiang wearing an apron and putting a few plates of fried side dishes on the table under the old locust tree in the yard. Mother Xu saw Luo Li get up and said to him, "Luo Li, hurry up and wash your face and come over for dinner." ”

After washing his face and sitting on the table, he took a closer look at a few side dishes, small cabbage soup, shredded potatoes, eggplant strips, and a plate of small pickles, all of which were vegetarian dishes, but they were all colorful, fragrant, and delicious, Luo Li glanced at Xu Zhongqiang in surprise.

"Brother Xu, you made this dish!"

Although Xu Zhongqiang was still a little decadent, he was not good at showing it in front of his mother, so he just panicked and said that there was nothing at home to come and see the old lady, and the old lady believed it.

"I made it, Luo Li, you eat more!" Xu Zhongqiang was still a little embarrassed in the face of Luo Li, he was too bitter when he came last night, and he couldn't hold back his tears in front of Luo Li for a while, but he was a lot better in the morning, and when he saw Luo Li again, he was a little embarrassed.

Luo Liquan didn't have anything to do, he tasted all the side dishes next to each other, and the taste was not ordinarily good, even if it was the chef of the restaurant.

He looked at Xu Zhongqiang and said, "Brother Xu, have you worked as a chef in a restaurant?"

Without waiting for Xu Zhongqiang to answer, Xu's mother said: "Zhongqiang has never worked as a chef in a restaurant, but he has a 'imperial kitchen' master. ”

Luo Li didn't understand, the old lady explained with a smile: "There was an old neighbor in our family, his master used to be a cook for the last emperor, he followed the master to work as a cook for the royal family at the age of twelve or thirteen, and then the last emperor was driven out of the Forbidden City, he followed the master out of the palace, and the soldiers were in chaos, so he followed the master and got separated."

Later, when I was older, I wanted to return to my hometown, but I didn't expect our two families to become neighbors, the old man had no children and no daughters all his life, and Zhongqiang always ran to him when he was a child, and the old man liked to be loyal and honest, so he passed on his craft to Zhongqiang. ”

Luo Li's eyes lit up instantly: "Brother Xu, so, you are the foundation of the imperial kitchen?"

Xu Zhongqiang smiled honestly: "Where is the imperial kitchen, the master has taught me a lot of things, but I have never done some of the things he taught, where did the food come from in the small place of my family, most of them are on paper, I will be able to cook home-cooked dishes, and I am in charge of cooking whoever has a big event in the village over the years." ”

Luo Li didn't expect Xu Zhongqiang to have such an experience, he was lacking a master, he was worried about this matter these days, but he didn't expect to meet an apprentice of the imperial chef.

"Brother Xu, will the hot pot be?"

Xu Zhongqiang said: "Which kind do you mean? Northern or Southern faction?"

"What kind of brother Xu will be?"

Xu Zhongqiang said embarrassedly: "The master has taught me more than a dozen, and the northern and southern schools have dabbled in it, but many of them have not been practiced, but I just remember some ingredient recipes, all of which are rote memorization, and there are not many real practices. ”

As soon as Luo Li heard it, he knew that he had picked up a treasure, although Xu Zhongqiang didn't have much practical experience, but he had something in his head, plus the recipe given by the pawnshop, there was no problem in concocting a high-quality hot pot soup.

Although Luo Li does not have much contact with Xu Zhongqiang, this person is loyal and honest, although he is a little cowardly, but such a character is a good thing for Luo Li, and it is more conducive to his control, and Xu Zhongqiang is still Xu Ying's brother, to put it bluntly, that is his future brother-in-law, this goods are still very 'recognizable', he immediately asked: "Brother Xu, how much money can you earn in the countryside in a year?"

Xu Zhongqiang didn't understand why Luo Li suddenly asked him such a question, he was a little embarrassed and said: "The cropyard can't make a lot of money, and it is more than 3,000 yuan a year to farm and work, but fortunately, I have this craft, and whoever in the village and outside the village will ask me to cook for a big and small matter, so I can earn three or two thousand yuan all year round." ”

Only then did Luo Li understand why Xu Zhongqiang was able to save a small part for his sister and mother, it turned out that he had this craft.

He smiled and said: "Brother Xu, let me tell you something, I plan to open a hot pot restaurant in Fengyuan, the store is quite big, and there is a lack of a master chef in charge, how about you come over to help me? The basic salary is 2,000, and the year-end dividends and bonuses are the same, I guarantee that you will earn at least 50,000 yuan a year, just work harder, are you interested?"

The chopsticks Xu Zhongqiang held in his hand fell on the table with a 'click'.

"You... What are you talking about, how much money are you giving me?" and his eyes were about to fall out.

"The basic salary is 2,000 per month, and there are bonuses and dividends at the end of the year!"

Xu Zhongqiang was stupid, 2,000 a month, December a year, the basic salary alone is 24,000 yuan, as well as bonuses and dividends, at least 50,000 a year, Wang Dazhi is engaged in engineering, and he can earn 50,000 yuan all year round.

Thinking that he can earn so much in a year, can he also sleep with his daughter-in-law, and thinking that he can also sleep with Wang Dazhi's daughter-in-law, Xu Zhongqiang's eyes are red, in his simple thoughts, his daughter-in-law let Wang Dazhi sleep, and he must take revenge.

How can I take revenge, that is, I slept with Wang Dazhi's daughter-in-law, and then I will be evened, but how can I sleep with Wang Dazhi's daughter-in-law, Xu Zhongqiang has his own ideas. Isn't it because Wang Dazhi is rich? So as long as he is rich, will he be able to sleep with Wang Dazhi's daughter-in-law? Xu Zhongqiang thinks that this is okay, but he doesn't know how to make money.

Now Luo Li suddenly told him that as long as he followed him, he could earn more than 50,000 yuan a year, Xu Zhongqiang's eyes were red.

"Is what you said true or false, if you can really make so much money, Luo Li, you let me go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire without frowning for a moment. ”

In order to take revenge, let Xu Zhongqiang not care about anything.

Mother Xu didn't expect Luo Li to make such a promise to her son, their mother and daughter have been bothering Luo Li for so long, and her son has not done anything, how can he give him so much money a year.

The old lady hurriedly said: "Luo Li, this is reluctant, why give him so much money, you have helped our mother and daughter enough, how can you make Zhiqiang ask you for so much money, he has six thousand yuan all year round is enough for him to earn, I say, you will give him six thousand." ”

Luo Li smiled: "Auntie, you don't have to worry about this matter, how much to give depends on how much contribution Brother Xu can make, now it is a market economy, more work, less work, as long as Brother Xu pays the corresponding labor, you can earn the corresponding wealth, this is a reciprocal relationship, I like his craft, Auntie, you can rest assured!"

Mother Xu didn't understand where Luo Lixiang fell in love with her son, she, the son who knew her best, had no other specialties except for being able to stir-fry.

"Luo Li, my son is loyal and honest, if you like his craft, you can use him, if he dares to be sorry for you, I will slap him with big ears. ”

After breakfast, Luo Li took Xu Zhongqiang directly to the hot pot restaurant, the entire hot pot restaurant has been almost renovated, and the finishing work is underway.

Xu Zhongqiang walked in and saw it, he was immediately dumbfounded, he couldn't think of such a big storefront, as soon as he came in, it was like walking into the 'palace', his eyes were not enough. The key is that Luo Li's hot pot restaurant is too beautifully decorated, giving people a feeling of youth and vigor, and more magnificent, anyway, let Xu Zhongqiang describe it like this.

"Luo Li, this... Is the store yours?" Xu Zhongqiang was dizzying, and he didn't believe it.

Luo Li led him to the back kitchen, which was decorated according to the design plan given by Li Jie, referring to the kitchen template of the international five-star hotel, scientifically decorated, able to make full use of every bit of space, Xu Zhongqiang looked stupid.

Luo Li said: "Brother Xu, this place is where you will work in the future, all the ingredients in the entire hot pot restaurant come from here, your task is very heavy, you must not only be responsible for the recipe production and confidentiality of the hot pot base, but also responsible for the selection of the entire ingredients, whether you can retain the guests, but it depends on your skills!"

Luo Li deliberately put pressure on him, Xu Zhongqiang gritted his teeth, and did not show timidity: "Luo Li, don't worry, I will definitely take out the skill of looking at the bottom of the box that the master taught me." ”

Luo Li smiled, he knew that if such an honest person could say such a thing, it would prove that the honest man was going to work hard!

How did he know that Xu Zhongqiang was going to sleep with Wang Dazhi's wife, he was fighting, if he didn't sleep back, he felt that he wouldn't be able to raise his head in this life!

(Can Xu Zhongqiang sleep with Wang Dazhi's daughter-in-law?
