Liu Licai put the beef tendon meat into the brine, and was about to smoke a cigarette and take a break when he saw the minister beckoning from him.

"What's wrong?" Liu Li extinguished his cigarette and walked to his side.

The minister said with an unhappy face: "The chef is looking for you in the changing room to have something to say." ”

As soon as the words fell, he left, and his unhappiness made Liu Li think about what was going on at the same time. When he came to the changing room and pushed the door in, he saw the chef with a smile on his face, and his smile made Liu Li feel a little hairy.

The head chef pulled him to sit down and looked at him with a spring breeze on his face: "Are you still used to us here?"

Liu Li smiled and nodded: "Yes, the people here are very nice and welcoming." After carving and mixing vegetables, I learned some fur, and the braised vegetables began. ”

The head chef nodded with satisfaction, he wanted to say something and stopped, Liu Li coughed dryly: "Chef, if you have something to say, I'll try to do it." ”

The chef sighed and looked in the direction of the ceiling: "You are all young! you can learn a lot and learn quickly." It's not like back then, when it was so hard to learn something. It's the same now, but it's a little bit better, do you know how a newcomer can learn the real thing?"

Liu Li smiled: "You mean apprenticeship?"

A look of appreciation flashed in the chef's eyes: "Yes, I studied for three years and still didn't learn anything, until I worshipped the master and got to where I am today." Apprenticeship is not only about learning things, but also about living in the world and learning kitchen ethics. If you worship a famous teacher, as soon as you go out and say the name of the master, you can almost walk sideways in the entire kitchen world. It's not that you want to be powerful, but the suppression of this industry is too serious, and the veteran will make things difficult for rookies, and there is no reason why it is the same in the entire kitchen industry.

But it's different if they worship a good master, they will see if they have the strength to provoke the forces behind them. Let's put it this way, most of my disciples are bosses or chefs. Just like Huang Xin, I will make him a sous chef immediately, and I can say that the kitchen industry in the entire S city will be smooth sailing. In the future, if you introduce a few bosses to you, you can also open your own store and do business! What do you think?"

Liu Li smiled and took out a cigarette, handed him one, and then lit it himself, he said everything so bluntly, if you don't understand, you are a fool. He didn't speak, he just smoked, and the head chef waited for a reply.

As a result, he stood up and said, "I'll think about it, and I'll give you an answer tomorrow." ”

The chef was a little angry but still happy, if Liu Li didn't have that intention, he would have refused directly, but said that there should be no problem with giving a reply tomorrow. But he felt that it was still not enough, and he had to add another dose: "Then you have to think clearly, I have a lot of resources in my hands, and there are many, many things that can help you or give you." ”

Liu Li nodded and left, returning to the side of the brine, he clearly saw that Ling Xiao had gone in after leaving by himself.

He secretly guessed as he put things into the brine, and he should have known about it by looking at the minister's appearance before. The head chef has been talking about the advantages of apprenticeship just now, but what about the disadvantages? I didn't say anything at all, Ling Xiao had said that the water in it was very deep, and he had to be cautious.

He might have been happy if it had been someone else, but he was used to it, even if the chef had no ill intentions. He returned to the cold vegetable room and saw that the minister was napping, and reported in his ear about today's pickled vegetable work. Before Liu Li could ask the minister, he first asked, "Do you agree?"

Liu Li smiled: "I didn't agree or refuse, I said I would give him an answer tomorrow." ”

The minister sighed, thought about it again, and said, "You should agree directly, what else is there to consider?"

Liu Li said: "I'm just thinking about it, minister, what do you say is good about apprenticeship?"

The minister repeated the words of the chef just now in his ear, and Liu Li asked again: "What about the disadvantages?"

The minister was stunned for a moment, and then sighed: "The disadvantage is that you can't oppose him, you have to follow him." If he goes to work somewhere else, if he calls you, then he has to follow, and he has to teach more than others. But wages may be suppressed, and so will work. It is not a bad thing to show what should be expressed during the New Year's holidays, which is a matter of course. ”

Liu Li looked thoughtful, and Ling Xiao walked in, looking like a different person. He had a smirk on his face, and he walked and danced. Seeing the minister and Liu Li, they nodded slightly, and then hummed a song to their place and began to chop vegetables.

Without thinking about it, he must have agreed to the head chef, Liu Li came to the smoking place in silence and smoked. Although everyone said that the pros outweighed the cons, he always had a bad premonition. So much so that he didn't say yes directly, and he didn't look excited, but he was so worried. Maybe this hunch came from Huang Xin, or it could be something else.

Huang Xin will soon become a sous chef, and he may not be far from the head chef, and then the head chef may step aside to do something else and give up his position. Or will Huang Xin be transferred to another place as the head chef, if so, then there is no room for such a thorn in the flesh at this moment, and there are still two.

Liu Li patted his head and secretly said that he was thinking too much, and he and Ling Xiao had only learned for almost half a year. Then Huang Xin should also know that it is imperative for him to be on top, and he will not do anything because of this little thing. However, the human heart is not certain, he has not had much contact with Huang Xin, and he is not sure what kind of person he is.

His mind was in a mess, and his mind was about to explode. Quickly patted his head and took a hard sip, then threw it away and continued to return to the brine.

When he returned to the rental room, he told the fat man about it, and the fat man thought for a long time and finally said, "There should be no problem! I'll be free tomorrow to investigate him and see what his background is. ”

Liu Li nodded: "Okay, know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles." I still need to know some things, and I have to be on guard or I won't be sure. ”

decided that he was still not as excited as Ling Xiao. He was thinking that now was not the ancient times, when the master preached and received karma to solve doubts, and the apprentice respectfully obeyed his orders and respected the teacher. Now everything in this society is linked to interests, and you have to pay what you want to get. How much can he pay?

When he came to the hotel early the next morning, the chef had already come to the cold dish room and waited, and at this time, the others had not yet come, and Liu Li was held by him as soon as he entered: "How is it?

Liu Li nodded calmly, and the head chef immediately laughed like a child, he suppressed his voice and patted him on the shoulder: "You will know that the choice you made is the right one." ”

Liu Li smiled and bowed his head: "Disciple to meet Master!"

The head chef waved his hand: "It's too early to say this, it's a busy time." Wait for next month, we will hold a banquet here, and let your brothers and uncles come over and have fun. You and Ling Xiao breathe to each other, and when it's time to prepare. ”

Liu Li nodded, and the head chef seemed to feel that it disturbed him to do things, so he was ready to leave, and when he left, he also said: "You have to learn things from the minister, I told him that you two don't have to keep it." ”

As soon as Ling Xiao came, he pulled him and asked, "How is it?"

Liu Li snorted, and he was immediately happy: "Yes, I didn't expect that we would become his apprentices one day, but who is the senior brother and who is the junior brother?"

Liu Li Yile: "The door that enters together should be regardless of generation, but Huang Xin is the senior brother of the two of us, which is true." ”

Of course, Ling Xiao heard what he meant, and he waved his hand: "What's the matter, as long as I am his Li Dao's apprentice." I don't want to fight with anyone for anything, as long as I go out and say his name Li Dao in the future and have a job, it will be almost the same if I don't attract people's eyes and suppress it. ”

Liu Li nodded slightly, he was thinking about what was going on, maybe it wouldn't be so simple, but it wasn't until that time, so he didn't have to think about it.

Three days later, Liu Li and the fat man sat on the bed and talked on the phone with Ju'er, and after a while, there were all kinds of ridicule, talking about some small frictions between Hu'er and Wang Fang, but they finally got along. It was enviable to hear, and finally the old cheap snatched the phone and said: "Hu'er, this bastard BB hasn't said anything serious for a long time, and it will be troublesome when the bunker comes in later." ”

Liu Lile said: "Is the bunker so strict now?"

The old man said: "No, it's not! The lights are turned off at ten o'clock every night, grass! All kinds of trouble, I don't know if menopause is coming or how it is dripping." It made a few of us want to go to the street with Bin. Fortunately, I finished reading it right away, otherwise I would have gone to the streets. Oh, by the way, you two will come back for the exam next week?"

"Exam?" The two looked at each other before remembering that the time for the high school entrance examination seemed to be approaching.

"You two don't know? Didn't Lao Cheng tell you?" asked the old.

The fat man said no, and the pot answered over there: "Then you will come back, first go to Lao Cheng to get the graduation certificate and admission ticket, and then take the exam, in the county, it will take about three days." Lao Zi and Bin and I are going to rent a house in the county first, and wait for the two of you to have a good drink. ”

"Come on! You're flushed when you drink. The fat man teased everyone and laughed.

We chatted for a long time until I heard the voice of the bunker scolding on the other side of the phone.

The fat man said: "Where is my school good to ask for leave, just tell the truth." ”

Liu Li nodded: "Then please take one more day, go home a day in advance, it's time to go home and take a look after we have been out for so long." ”

The fat man snorted, in fact, everyone was homesick. But the old men said it and felt numb, and he patted his head: "Look, I almost forgot." ”

He walked to the table, squatted down, took out a document from below, blew the dust on it and threw it beside Liu Li.

"I got it done yesterday, but I forgot about it underneath, it's just a little more dusty. The vague places inside should be unimportant, and basically it should be fine. ”

As soon as Liu Li opened it, he began to read it carefully: Huang Xin, 25 years old. Home address: No. 120 and No. 007, Donghua Road, landline...... Cell phone...... Graduated from the elementary, junior high, high school...... There were also introductions from his immediate family, followed by some important things that happened to him.

His life was miserable, as his father died in the line of duty when he was seven years old. My mother died of depression after half a year, and she grew up alone in an empty house, because her father was a police officer and could go to high school. However, it seems that he was diagnosed with severe schizophrenia when he was in junior high school, and he was hospitalized in a psychiatric hospital for half a year. graduated from high school uneventfully, and met Li Dao by accident and worshiped him as a teacher until now.

Liu Li closed the file and touched his chin and muttered, "Psychotic?

He remembers himself as having multiple personalities, with a total of five personalities. It's just five what kind of personality, the forged certificate is not stated. The fat man is also schizophrenic, he laughed. If psychosis and psychopathy fight, where the hell can this be reasonable? Liu Li's acting skills should be no problem, and the fat man can be fooled if he goes crazy. The thought of the three of them being locked up in a psychiatric hospital was a little embarrassing.
