Song Zixuan's off-duty naturally means that he can leave Xunfeng Yuan with confidence, and Xunfeng Yuan also needs someone who can make five soups with golden scales.

And there is no other way to achieve this, but to use sealing technology to make semi-finished products like imperial fried rice.

However, the complexity of the golden scale five soups is obviously more complex than that of the imperial fried rice, and it cannot be achieved by simply sealing a bag of oil catalyzed by internal force.

If it's good, you should make the soup in advance and add the ingredients when you make it.

However, the soup of the golden scale five soups not only needs to be stewed with several ingredients, but also some medicinal herbs need to be fried, which is obviously much more troublesome than imperial fried rice.

That night, Song Zixuan had been pondering about this matter.

But I don't have a clue, it seems that no matter what, I will first teach the imperial fried rice to the chef of the Fa Cai Hotel in the near future.

Whether it is Li Yan or Hu Zhen, but there is a premise, whether this Li Yan is willing to continue to stay in Dumen City, whether he is willing to stay in Facai Hotel to work.

Early the next morning, Song Zixuan and Fang Rui simply ate breakfast and went to the Fortune Hotel.

At nine o'clock, seeing that the door of the Fortune Hotel was empty, Song Zixuan smiled: "Ruizi, how long has the imperial fried rice been off the shelves?"

"This ...... It's been more than a month. ”

"Hehe, it's time for these diners to come back. ”

"Second master, in fact, it doesn't matter, after all, Xunfeng Yuan's business is very good every day, yesterday we just put five soups on the shelves, and we sold sixteen copies. ”

Fang Rui said.

Indeed, as he said, Xunfeng Yuan sold a lot of five soups on the first day yesterday.

But there are prerequisites for this.

First of all, Song Zixuan has been in the store, and five soups can be served, and secondly, these diners are not the same as the diners of Fa Cai Restaurant.

Whether there are five soups or not, they will also go to the Wind Garden, because the grade and environment alone are enough to attract these diners.

Fa Cai Restaurant is different, the signature dish is gone, and at least half of the diners are missing.

Because they came for a very clear purpose, that is, imperial fried rice.

As for the nearby residents who will come to have a dinner party or pack a few dishes to take away, those amounts are at most maintained by the fortune restaurant, and there is still a lot of gap between making money.

Song Zixuan said with a smile: "That's not good, if you go on like this, the fortune hotel will not be able to withstand it sooner or later, so it must be restored, let's go Ruizi, let's go in and teach!"

Fang Rui obviously didn't understand, he was stunned, but he still walked in with Song Zixuan.

At this time, everyone was busy working, Song Zixuan saw Hu Zhen and said, "Old Hu, how is your hand?"

Hu Zhen shook his hand: "Hehe, don't worry, second master, it's not a big deal, it's just a scar, this dog Cao's foreign goods." ”

Song Zixuan nodded and smiled: "Don't be in a hurry to get to work, apply with me when it's good, and the salary will be paid." ”

"Don't don't, second master, I can't hold it now, I just told Li Yan, the kitchen will be mine today, if you don't let me fry two dishes, I guess I should grow hair." ”

Hearing this, everyone laughed.

Song Zixuan went directly into the back kitchen.

At this time, the people in the kitchen are busy with their own work, cutting onions and peeling garlic to make semi-finished products, which is also a normal scene in the kitchen every day.

And Li Yan is already standing in front of the stove, he is often like this, even if no one orders, he likes to stand in front of the pot and make gestures.

This guy is a real kitchen idiot.

Song Zixuan approached, looked at Li Yan and the empty pot in front of him, and said, "Hehe, can you be so excited when you touch the wok?"

Li Yan was startled, turned around and said, "Oh, it's the second master." ”

It's rare for Li Yan to call him that, maybe he learned it from others, or maybe it's ...... The relationship between them seems to be less strained.

"How about it, did Rakishius hurt you?" Song Zixuan said with a smile.

"No, I beat him that day. Li Yan said flatly, it seems that defeating Rakishius is not something to be happy about.

"I heard that, congratulations, when are you going to challenge me?"

Song Zixuan's Li Yan was stunned for a moment: "Huh, challenge you?"

"yes, isn't that what you've always wanted to do? Come on, I'm ready. ”

When Song Zixuan spoke, he was always smiling and friendly.

Looking at Song Zixuan, Li Yan was a little speechless, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Indeed, his purpose was to defeat Song Zixuan, and he felt that as long as he defeated Song Zixuan, he could leave the ferry and go to other cities.

And all he has to do is keep beating the chef, as for why...... Song Zixuan didn't know.

"This ...... Second master, I'm ...... I don't want to...... yes, I don't want to challenge you. ”

"Huh?" Song Zixuan was stunned, he really didn't expect it, isn't this what Li Yan has always wanted?

"Why not?"

In fact, Song Zixuan thought very simply, that is, to come to the Facai Hotel today to defeat Li Yan and persuade him to stay.

But now, it seems that things are not going in the direction I expected.

"I ...... I can't win against you, second master, I've also watched your competition with Rakishius. ”

"Hehe, didn't you win him too?" Song Zixuan said.

"I ...... Second master, I believe that if you let go of your hand and compete with me, or even use fire control, I will lose ugly. Li Yan lowered his head and said.

Song Zixuan smiled: "We can not allow fire control." ”

Li Yan thought for a while: "In that case, you will let me yourself, the Chinese cooking competition, there has been a fire control since ancient times, and ...... I haven't figured out the Imperial Fried Rice yet. ”

Song Zixuan nodded slowly, then took out a cigarette and lit it, and said, "Are you willing to stay in the Fortune Hotel?"

Li Yan raised his head suddenly when he heard this, in fact, he hadn't thought about this problem.

Because he has been living well in the Facai Hotel recently, or it can be said that he is very comfortable.

Whether it was in Chunxia Garden or other hotels before, he had never felt so relaxed.

Whether it is the kindness between colleagues or the boss like Song Zixuan, he is very down-to-earth and willing to live such a life.

So much so that he forgot his purpose, so Song Zixuan asked him today, and he would feel a little surprised.

"If you want, be the chef of my fortune restaurant. ”

"Uh-huh, chef, but Chef Hu, he ......."

Song Zixuan smiled: "I will arrange it, and he will be very happy, it just depends on whether you are willing or not?"

"This ...... Second master, are you serious, can I stay forever?"

"Yes, but there are two prerequisites. ”

Li Yan was silent, looked at Song Zixuan, and obviously asked him to continue.

"First, you have to master the Imperial Fried Rice. ”

"I'll work on it. ”

"Hehe, number two, you're going to tell me why you're constantly beating the chef. ”

"This ......" Li Yan's face showed a hint of embarrassment.

"I know, this is your private matter, but since I am from the hotel, I want to know you, of course, I can teach you imperial fried rice in exchange. ”

This sentence shocked Li Yan.

Song Zixuan: What does this mean...... Teach him?

He has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years.

From learning to cook, to helping cook, to being in charge, to being a chef, and even including various challenges later, I have never seen a chef willing to teach signature dishes. Because it's a chef's ability to survive.

Except for the old chef who will pass on his signature dishes to the next generation, no one will want to teach the signature dishes.

To a certain extent, this is tantamount to digging one's own grave.

But Song Zixuan actually made such a decision, which really shocked Li Yan.

"Second master, you say...... Teach me Imperial Fried Rice? That version of yours?"

Song Zixuan smiled slightly: "Hehe, I can only let you make it, as for teaching...... I'm afraid you'll have to figure it out for yourself. ”

Song Zixuan is not a fool, he will not do it if he digs his own grave, but if Li Yan realizes it himself, it belongs to his high understanding, and Song Zixuan will not mind.

Li Yan also understood what Song Zixuan meant, but it was already a great honor for Rao to be like this.

"I'm willing, second master, I'm willing!"

Song Zixuan smiled: "OK, let Chef Hu Zhen today, let's go to the private room to talk." ”

"Good!"

Afterwards, Hu Zhenle walked to the stove, and Song Zixuan took Li Yan to the private room.

This time, he didn't even let Fang Rui in, the reason was very simple, Li Yan's private affairs obviously didn't want outsiders to know.

In the private room, Li Yan took a sip of tea and said, "Second master, in fact, if you ask me to make imperial fried rice, according to the rules of the industry, it will be my master." ”

Song Zixuan smiled: "It's not that serious, I never force it, it's okay if we're friends." ”

"No, second master, in fact, in the kitchen industry, it is normal to have a few masters, but when I once worshiped the master, I swore that I would never betray the master and never switch to other disciples. ”

Song Zixuan nodded when he heard this: "I've heard that some famous chefs have established these rules, which is understandable. ”

Speaking of this, Li Yan smiled bitterly.

On his cold face, it seemed that a smile was a luxury.

Song Zixuan has known Li Yan for so long, and he seems to have seen him laugh once.

And the other time, when Song Zixuan and Rakishius were competing, Li Yan smiled, but he didn't see it.

"But I'm not expelled from the division now, and the master won't let me stay in the division anymore, second master, isn't it embarrassing?"

Hearing this, Song Zixuan frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"

"Under Master, I am probably the stupidest disciple, my brother doesn't like me, and Master doesn't like me, I know that. ”

"But they shouldn't have bullied me, made me a servant, a slave, and framed me!"

The more Li Yan spoke, the louder he became, and the last punch hit the table.

Song Zixuan didn't rush to speak, he tried to let Li Yan vent, he obviously had an unknown and unforgettable story.

But he needs to vent, and since he left the school, he may never have vented.

Confiding is the best vent, so Song Zixuan didn't interrupt him.

"They didn't treat me as a human being, including deliberately designing punishment and slashing me with a knife in the face...... It's only right for me to depose him!"

Li Yan said, his eyes were shining, and he didn't know how many grievances were contained in it.

"Because of this incident, the master wants to punish me, saying that I ruined his disciple," Li Yan said that, Li Yan looked at Song Zixuan, "But I am also his disciple, why am I not human? I deserve to be tortured by them?"

Song Zixuan took a deep breath, and although he didn't know what he had experienced, he still patted him on the shoulder.

"That's why you, that's why you stepped on the chef everywhere later, just to prove it to your master. Song Zixuan said.

Li Yan hesitated for a moment, and a tear finally slipped from his eyes.

"Yes, but ...... I've changed my mind, Second Master, I want to follow you!"
