Chapter 506 - This is a person who can't find a job
"Ah, my eyes!" Huo Ying covered his eyes and squatted down in pain, he now finally understood why his nephew Huo Zheng was just covering his eyes.
I was also careless for a while, forgetting that Huo Zheng had such an ability, as long as he cooked seriously, he would make the dishes particularly bells and whistles after every time he finished cooking.
No, it's not bells and whistles to describe. It's like adding special effects to all dishes, dazzling and even blinding 24K titanium alloy dog eyes.
"Uncle, are you alright? I'll help you go to the edge of the pool and wash your eyes with water, it will be much more comfortable. β
Huo Zheng helped Huo Ying to the edge of the pool and washed his eyes with cold water, and at this time Huo Ying felt that his eyes were much more comfortable, and he didn't have the soreness and swelling just now.
However, he still couldn't fully open his eyes, and said to Huo Zheng with a little squint: "What kind of moth are you doing?" β
"I'm just trying to make egg fried rice. After all, I don't want to eat takeout today, and there is no takeout for the Chinese New Year. β
"Okay, you're not egg fried rice, you're just a flashbang, I'm almost blinded. β
Regarding Huo Ying's complaints, Huo Zheng could only shrug his shoulders and said helplessly: "You can't blame me completely, who called me such an ability." β
"The world I used to travel to was the kind of world where chefs are respected, and everyone is fighting for cooking. The world of light and dark cuisine has been fighting each other for thousands of years, and a variety of dishes have been developed for battle. β
"In order to make a living in that world, I also worked hard to learn these skills. Who would have thought that I would come back one day. Huo Zheng was also very helpless.
Huo Ying dipped his hand in cold water, and then applied it to his eyes, and he whispered: "Then you can't help but engage in these bells and whistles? β
"I'd like to, too, but I can't. Now that I'm back, my abilities aren't as easy to control as they were in the Otherworld. As long as I cook seriously, I will passively trigger these skills. The energy in my body will unconsciously pour into these dishes, and this will always happen when they are ready. β
"Unless I deliberately make the dish very palatable, then I won't have these special effects. But how can I eat egg fried rice without oil and salt?"
Huo Ying closed his eyes and rested for a while, feeling that his eyes were not so painful, and then completely opened his eyes and looked at his nephew.
Huo is the son of his eldest brother, but his eldest brother died early. Since high school, this child has been in charge of himself.
I can't write two Huo characters in one stroke, in the final analysis, it is a family whose blood is thicker than water, and I can be regarded as raising him as half a son.
Although Huo Zheng is not very good at reading, he is still diligent in his hands, and after graduating from high school, he went to learn art and how to cook Sichuan cuisine without being admitted to university.
At that time, I thought that this kid would have a good craft in the future, and he would be able to become a teacher, so he would invest some money and let him open a food stall or something, and he would develop slowly in the future, and maybe he would be able to mix up a world like his comrade-in-arms Jiang Aijun.
But what I didn't expect was that this kid had just studied for two years and had not yet completed a three-year apprenticeship, and he crossed over.
At that time, I was looking for a meal. Fortunately, after three years, this kid crossed back again. But according to him, he traveled through three years, but in fact he spent eight years in another world.
It's a world where cooking is all about it. He learned all sorts of very good cooking skills there.
Originally, Huo Ying still thought that this was a good thing, anyway, this kid was also a chef, although he said that he hadn't seen him for three years. But it's okay to think of him as an apprentice who went outside for three years and learned a deep cooking skill. After all, it will take two or three years to learn cooking at New Oriental and Lanxiang.
If his craftsmanship is really good, he will pay 100,000 yuan for him to rent a shop on the street and open a food stall fly restaurant.
But this test of his cooking skills revealed that there was a very serious problem. That is, all the dishes he makes are like special effects.
Just like just now, it's a plate of unpretentious egg fried rice, but when you lift the lid, it will shine with gold. It's even more exaggerated than the way it was expressed in those movies. It's almost time to catch up with the cartoon called Little Master of China that my children watched when they were children.
Anyway, the dishes Huo Zheng is cooking are either golden, fluorescent, or green. If you don't let it go, then you may lift the lid again, and the moment you open the lid of the hot spring mouth, it will be like opening the lid of the hot spring mouth, and the sea of clouds will steam.
Or for example, last time I made a scrambled egg with a tree flower that is a specialty of Yunnan. This time, there was no glow, or any kind of gas. But the moment the lid was lifted, everyone actually heard the cicadas and birds chirping in the forest.
And it's just the feeling of seeing or hearing. If you actually eat these dishes, it will give you an even more unexpected feeling.
For example, he made a braised Yellow River carp. As long as others take a bite, they will feel the Yangtze River...... It is the rolling Yellow River east of the passing water.
It is as if the mother river that has nourished the Chinese nation for 5,000 years is flowing in his mouth.
Eat a fried bean sprouts with shredded meat, and you can also eat the feeling of a phoenix ascending to heaven. I even heard fairy music fluttering.
And because of his ability. So after eating Huo Zheng's meal, some people felt that he must have drugged the rice, otherwise it would not have achieved such an effect, so some people quietly reported him.
At that time, there were many returnees from other worlds, and there were also some special ways to cook. The way they do that is to add raw materials that are prohibited by various countries. Those raw materials all have hallucinating and addictive ingredients, and after eating them, they will also have the same hallucinations as the dishes made by Huo Zheng.
The food cooked by these people has caused a lot of problems. Because those things are even more terrible than drug addiction.
So after being reported, Huo Zheng was also asked by the relevant authorities to assist in the investigation.
Later, after repeated verification, it was found that Huo Zheng did not use any addictive raw materials.
Those hallucinations were more like some kind of illusion presented by Huo Zheng's own ability, and it would be more appropriate to understand it as a kind of magic performance.
But after such an examination. The food hygiene unit still did not approve Huo Zheng's chef qualifications, nor did he let him engage in the relevant food processing industry.
Huo Zheng was very helpless about this. And Huo Ying also asked Huo Zheng, why didn't the food department issue him a certificate?
"Didn't they find out what you were capable of?"
"Yes, they did check and can't prove that my cooking is harmful. That's why I wasn't prosecuted. β
"Then why can't you get a certificate? You're actually quite a gimmick for cooking. β
"Yes, that's what I said, but they said that while they couldn't prove that my food was harmful, they couldn't prove that my food was harmless. It's like SchrΓΆdinger's cat, which can never be proven without anyone opening the box. β
Huo Zheng's words made Huo Ying silent at that time, because the statement given by the food department was not wrong.
Because most of the world's people are denouncing the problem of genetically modified foods. There are even many people in China who blame Yuan Longping's hybrid rice.
Their theory is that genetically modified and hybrid rice cannot be proven to be harmful to humans. But there's no way to prove that these foods are harmless to humans! they're more inclined to have problems with these things, but they just haven't been noticed.
This is the common denominator of all human beings, and if all these people who oppose genetically modified and hybrid rice, hybrid wheat, and other crops that are not purely natural but are made through human interference are dragged out and shot, China is afraid that it will reduce its population by 1 billion.
So Huo Zheng can't be a chef, but he doesn't know how to learn other skills. The appearance is not very good, the height is only 1.65 meters. If you want to find a job in the service industry, no one will accept it.
So when I come back, I can only work as a courier. Those who walk the streets and alleys deliver couriers.
However, although you can make some money by sending express delivery, it is too hard, and sending express delivery is not a technology. In the eyes of the older generation like Huo Ying. If you can't work in a public unit, whether it's a civil servant, a career editor, or a state-owned factory. If you can't get into any of this, then mastering a skill is a must. In this way, there is a guarantee in society.
Huo is his own nephew, and he is also half of his son after raising him for so many years. Even if he has a shy old face today, he asks Jiang Aijun to do him a favor.
"Pack up your things, dress yourself up and be refreshed, and come with me to your Uncle Jiang's house. β
"It's a little too early to greet the New Year today, isn't it? β
"It's not a New Year's greeting, but I heard that Huaihai should be more open to the management of returnees. You're in your 20s and almost 30, you don't have a serious job, and you can't use a craft, so it's not okay. This year, your sister Jianghua is back, and we have to ask if you can run a restaurant seriously in Huaihai like you. β
