On the evening of June 8.

C city p county, grandma fish village is brightly lit, the car is parked outside the store, the store is full of customers, the sound of staggering, the sound of customers drinking and bragging, the sound of waiters shouting food, intertwined, noisy and prosperous.

Obviously, this is a good business.

One of the features of this hotel is that a large fish pond has been built in the corner of the hall, and there are rockeries and aquatic plants in the fish pond, and various fish are swimming in the water.

Whenever a guest comes here, he points to a fish in the fish pond and says to the boss who is holding a net next to him, "This is it!"

Every time a guest says this, the boss immediately uses a net in his hand to catch the fish pointed out by the guest from the water, then dumps it into a plastic bucket next to it and carries it to the kitchen.

The water bench worker in the kitchen will quickly remove the scales and gills of the fish in the bucket, cut the abdomen and intestines, and then hand it over to the chopping master to change the knife, and after changing the knife, it will be handed over to the master in charge of the spoon to cook.

Live fish is slaughtered and cooked, which is the biggest feature of this restaurant.

Many customers come here to eat live fish with peace of mind.

No, just now another guest ordered a fish, and the emaciated boss fished out the fish with a net, poured it into a plastic bucket, and carried it into the kitchen with a smile and handed it to the water table worker to slaughter, and he habitually walked to the sink to put water and wash his hands.

Next to this sink is a transparent glass wall, and behind the glass wall is a cold food room.

There was a young white-clothed cook cutting vegetables and melon slices, and the emaciated boss was washing his hands while looking at it with a smile and a slight nod.

Because the knife skills of the young chef in the cold dish room seem to be quite good, the kitchen knife in his hand jumps and cuts continuously, and this jumping knife technique seems to be very skillful.

The water platform worker who was descaling the fish followed the boss's line of sight and glanced at the cold dish room, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, where did you find this cold dish master?

Mr. Li, who had already washed his hands, glanced back at him, pulled a rag to wipe the water stains on his hands, and said, "I came to apply for the job today, and the knife work is okay, what do you say?"

When the water worker heard this, he glanced at the young chef in the cold dish room again, smiled, and hummed.

said casually: "But Mr. Li ...... Cooking cold dishes isn't just good at knives, you say?"

Mr. Li nodded slightly, glanced back at him again, thought about it, walked to the door of the cold food room, and said as he walked, "You're right!

As he spoke, the young chef in the cold dish room had already cut the last piece of vegetable melon, and when Mr. Li pushed the door in, the young chef was holding a stainless steel basin full of vegetable melon slices, walking to the place where the seasoning was placed, and preparing the vegetable melon slices in the pickling basin.

The sound of Mr. Li opening the door attracted his eyes, and when he saw that Mr. Li came in, the young chef gave a smile that met the expectations of the society, and said hello, "Mr. Li is good!"

Mr. Li smiled at the corner of his mouth, and hummed, "You're busy with you! I'll come in and take a look." ”

"Good!"

The young chef withdrew his gaze, picked up the spoon in the seasoning vat, and confidently scooped up spoonful after spoonful of salt and added it to the bowl with the slices of vegetables.

If Sun Quan was here, he would definitely be able to recognize this young chef at a glance, it was the son of his aunt and uncle, and his grandson's cousin - Chen Xiaofeng.

This kid is the same as the original time and space, after graduating from high school, he went to society and was not admitted to college.

Unlike the original time and space, a few years ago, after graduating from high school, he chose to learn to cook without much hesitation in entering society.

Probably because I saw my cousin Sun Quan studying cooking in college, and after graduation, he opened a shop and made a yellow stewed chicken, and he became popular?

Anyway, he embarked on the path of learning to be a chef.

Mr. Li stood at the door, smiling and watching Chen Xiaofeng confidently add salt to the pot of vegetable melons, spoonful after spoonful, looking at it, the smile on Mr. Li's face slowly disappeared, and his brows slowly wrinkled.

Finally, Mr. Li couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Chen, you add so much salt when you order such a vegetable melon?"

Chen Xiaofeng glanced back at him, shook his head and smiled: "No! I didn't add much, I don't believe you can wait to try the taste." ”

Mr. Li frowned and didn't make a sound, just stretched out his hand and motioned for him to continue.

Chen Xiaofeng confidently added two more spoonfuls of salt to the basin before he began to add seasonings such as monosodium glutamate, sugar, white vinegar, and sesame oil.

In this process, Mr. Li didn't say a word, just frowned and watched.

After all the seasonings were added, Chen Xiaofeng began to stir the vegetable melon slices in the basin, the technique was a little rusty, but it was very hard, maybe because the boss was watching from the side?

Look at the slices of vegetables and melons cut in his pot, they are indeed evenly thick and beautiful.

After a long time, he began to hold a handful of vegetable melon slices in both hands and squeezed the water in the vegetable melon slices vigorously.

Because of the addition of a lot of salt, these vegetable melon slices were squeezed hard by his hands, and a lot of water was squeezed out, and the dried vegetable melon slices were put into another clean stainless steel next to him.

Mr. Li looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but ask again: "After pickling, you should squeeze out the water first, and then add the seasonings such as monosodium glutamate and white vinegar, right? ”

When Chen Xiaofeng heard this, he bit his lip lightly, his face was a little red, and he didn't know if he was embarrassed by the boss's question, or if he squeezed the vegetable melon slices hard just now, making his whole body hot and his face hot, but he didn't coax it, "This will make the flavor effect better! ”

Mr. Li: "......"

After another ten minutes, all the vegetable melon slices have been squeezed dry, and Mr. Li came over and asked, "Can you try the taste?"

Chen Xiaofeng: "Wait a minute! I'll add some more sesame oil!"

At this time, Mr. Li's face was already dark, because there was obviously a lot of sesame oil floating in the water that was squeezed out just now.

Sesame oil is expensive! a few dollars a bottle.

But he had a good self-cultivation, he still didn't have a seizure at this time, frowning and waiting for Chen Xiaofeng to add a lot of sesame oil to the vegetable melon slices, and mixed all the sesame oil into the vegetable melon slices, Mr. Li reached out and put two or three slices of vegetable melon into his mouth, just put them in his mouth and chewed them twice, and then spit them into the trash can next to him.

At this time, Chen Xiaofeng's expression was slightly stunned, "Mr. Li, what's wrong?"

"Try it yourself!"

Mr. Li commanded coldly.

"What's wrong? Does it taste bad?"

Chen Xiaofeng frowned and muttered, reached out and put two slices of vegetable melon slices into his mouth, just chewed a few times, his mouth stopped, his brows were furrowed, his face quickly turned red, he had an expression of wanting to vomit but didn't dare to vomit, and his eyes didn't dare to look at Mr. Li.

At this time, at the door of the cold food room, there were already two apprentices standing who were playing lotus, looking curiously.

Probably too curious, one of the sixteen or seventeen-year-old apprentices walked in with a smile, reached out and put a few slices of vegetable melon slices into his mouth, just chewed them twice, frowned, and quickly spit into the trash can next to him, and said repeatedly: "Hmm, so salty...... It's too salty...... It's too salty!"

When the other worker heard this, he also trotted in curiously, took a few slices of vegetable melon slices and put them in his mouth, and then reacted similar to the first one who had just chewed two bites, and then quickly spit it into the trash can next to him, and said in his mouth: "It's too salty! How much salt is put in it? Mr. Li, don't we need money for the salt in our store?"

Some young people just speak so directly, without caring about other people's face.

Chen Xiaofeng's face was already red at this time.

However, although this Mr. Li's expression was very ugly, he did not get angry, but sighed and waved his hand to signal the two workers to go out.

When the last hand-picked worker went out, Mr. Li also ordered: "Close the door!"

"Hey! ”

The hand-wreath man closed the door of the cold food room with his backhand.

Mr. Li sighed again, lowered his head and took out a cigarette case from his trouser pocket, took out two cigarettes, handed one to Chen Xiaofeng, and took a lighter to help Chen Xiaofeng light the cigarette.

During this process, Chen Xiaofeng's face was flushed and his expression was very embarrassed.

But Mr. Li's face slowly returned to calm.

When Chen Xiaofeng took a puff of cigarette, Mr. Li cleared his throat, "Ahem, Xiao Chen! I have a friend who has a shop, and he happens to be short of a side dish recently, or I'll give you the phone number, and you can go to him to apply for a job?"

Chen Xiaofeng was a little surprised, this Mr. Li drove people away, and he was so polite?

Chen Xiaofeng hesitated slightly, "Mr. Li, where is that store?"

Mr. Li: "It's not far! It's near the county hospital, if you're willing to try, I'll give you his number!"

As he spoke, Mr. Li really took out his mobile phone and turned out a number for Chen Xiaofeng in the address book.

After Chen Xiaofeng blushed and recorded the number with his mobile phone, Mr. Li put away his mobile phone and asked with a smile: "Xiao Chen, you tell me the truth, haven't you cooked cold dishes before?"

Chen Xiaofeng lowered his head and hummed with a blushing face.

Mr. Li raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's okay! In this way, you go to the bar now to settle today's salary with the proprietress, and after you settle the salary, you can get off work! Go to my friend's store tomorrow to apply for a job!"

Chen Xiaofeng looked up at him, only embarrassed in his heart, and couldn't be angry at all.

Nodding, he began to take off his chef's clothes, and Mr. Li had already turned around and left the cold food room with a smile, and when he went out, he said to one of the workers: "Xiao Wang, you go to the cold food room! ”

"Okay, Mr. Li!"

Xiao Wang happily agreed, the status and salary of making cold dishes are much higher than that of playing lotus.

Mr. Li walked out of the kitchen and instructed his daughter-in-law in the bar: "Wait a minute, you will settle today's salary for Xiao Chen, who came to work today!

His daughter-in-law gave him a cold look and sneered.

recruited a cold dish master who couldn't be used, and she hadn't finished her shift for a day, and she had to pay her salary, of course she was unhappy.

But when Chen Xiaofeng came to settle the salary, she didn't say anything, and really paid Chen Xiaofeng's salary today, but there was no smile on her face.

......

When Chen Xiaofeng walked out of this hotel, his expression was both embarrassed and a little regretful.

The owner of this shop, he still likes it very much, but unfortunately, the owner doesn't like him.

Thank you for finally starting to see the genuine Lao Li's tip.
