In fact, Jia Zuozhen's sycophant seems to be a bit exaggerated, but it is very useful to listen to Master Qin's ears, he himself is an insignificant small character, and most of the people he usually comes into contact with are ordinary chefs or apprentice helpers, to put it bluntly, he is just mixed at the bottom of the hotel.

In addition, Master Qin's temper is notoriously smelly and hard in the back kitchen, whether it is a cook or a helper in the back kitchen on weekdays, let alone flattering him, he even has to walk around him.

And today's praise of Jia Zuozhen made him feel as if he was really a character, at least he had made a lot of achievements on the road of cooking.

In a happy mood, Master Qin readily agreed to Jia Zuozhen's proposal, and even more affectionately promised: "Thank you, brother, you can afford me, don't say any food consultants, I'm just a layman with little culture, but if there is anything you don't understand from the chef over there, call me directly, as long as I know, I will definitely know everything!"

Jia Zuozhen hurriedly took out his mobile phone and wrote down Master Qin's phone number, then took out the red envelope from his pocket that he didn't know when it was ready, and stuffed it into his pocket while Master Qin was dialing his mobile phone.

"Alas, what are you doing? How can you get paid before you work?" Although Master Qin likes to listen to flattery, but as he himself said, he is a layman, although he doesn't understand those big truths, but he still understands that he is useless, and he is very resistant to this kind of unknown red envelope, and immediately wants to take it out of his pocket and return it.

How can Jia Zuozhen let him get his wish? The previous touting is just a foreshadowing, this red envelope with 2,000 yuan is just a stepping stone, if the stepping stone is returned, how will the next plan be implemented?

"Don't, don't, Master Qin, listen to me!" Jia Zuozhen hurriedly blocked Master Qin's hand, and shouted in a low voice while tugging slightly, "This money is not given to you for free! In addition to asking you to be a food consultant, I also have another thing to ask for, this red envelope is for you!"

"Oh, brother, tell me first, if I can't do it, then you might as well take this back!"

Hearing Jia Zuozhen say that there was something else to ask for himself, Master Qin took it seriously, although he did not continue to push the red envelope out, but he did not withdraw the hand holding the red envelope, looking at the look If Jia Zuozhen was seeking something he couldn't help, this red envelope was still resolutely unwilling to accept it.

Jia Zuozhen tidied up the wrinkled and messy sleeves in the pulling, and said: "Actually, it's not a big deal, my small restaurant, just opened, the Health Bureau ran to me two times in three days, and I also dotted everything that should be done, but I am a monk halfway, I really don't know how to arrange the back kitchen, and I toss my head several times but it is not up to standard! I thought, just take your opportunity, can you take me to the back kitchen of your hotel to have a look?" I promise I won't embarrass you, just take a look at the structure of the kitchen, and I'll draw a scoop according to the gourd, right?"

Master Qin frowned and thought about it, this matter seems to be really taken care of? The already small vigilance has completely dissipated, but he feels that this red envelope really has to be accepted, and he can't help but carry it when people give him face! As for saying that this money is not at ease, it is easy to solve, and it will be enough to have more snacks for Jia Zuozhen's small restaurant in the future!

Thinking of this, Master Qin also agreed half-pushed, half-on-the-spot, as the saying goes, the night is long and dreams are many, taking advantage of the fact that there are only a few apprentices left in the back kitchen to clean up, Master Qin simply said: "Then I'll take you in to have a look now, but there is one thing we said in advance, if the leader of the hotel bumps into you and asks about your identity, just say that it is my distant cousin, come to me for a job!"

In this regard, Jia Zuozhen was naturally full of promises, and with a tone of teaching juniors, he explained to Tang Tian, and said: "Did you hear that? After following Master Qin in, don't be as stupid as staying at home, don't open your mouth when you meet the hotel leader, don't speak, remember?"

Resisting the urge to slap him, Tang Tian pretended to be obedient and nodded, and then followed the two of them down the passage into the back kitchen.

More than half of the space on the second floor is divided into a back kitchen, everything is set in strict accordance with five-star standards, and the long row of stoves next to each other is clean, and even the most easily dirty vegetable sink is spotless.

"Tsk, it's different, it's really different! Look at this clean one!" Jia Zuozhen sighed half-truthfully, looking east and west along the way, and didn't forget to turn his head and say to Tang Tian, "Don't be stupid to follow me and do nothing, I didn't bring you in for sightseeing! Take a good look at how people get it, and go back and learn!"

This seems to be an assignment, but in fact, it is to tell Tang Tian, this Master Qin and I are pestering, you hurry up and find clues!

Tang Tian naturally understood Jia Zuozhen's hidden meaning, and immediately turned around and walked towards the neatly arranged condiment area.

Seeing Tang Tian go straight to the condiment, a different color flashed in Master Qin's eyes, any store in the catering industry has its own uniqueness, and this uniqueness is often in the matching of condiments. The kid in front of him seems to be silent, and after being reprimanded, he still knows that he goes straight to the condiment area, and he thinks he is also a smart person.

Although Master Qin was thinking so much in his heart, he didn't mean to stop it, so many condiments prepared by chefs could still make a little clever fart child think it through after a few glances?

Noticing Master Qin's strange gaze at Tang Tian, Jia Zuozhen touted even harder, in the midst of Hu Tianhai's flattery, Master Qin became more and more dizzy, and the whole person was fluttering, where was he still in the mood to care about what Tang Tian was looking at?

With Jia Zuozhen's containment, Tang Tian's actions were extremely smooth, he carefully checked all the condiment boxes, and each box had to be opened to smell the smell, wanting to find the unique fragrance of corpse mushrooms.

But the result was very disappointing to him, the air in the whole kitchen was filled with a rich mushroom aroma, but there was no taste in these condiments!

In other words, mushroom powder is not mixed with condiments at all!

Don't......

Tang Tian's heart moved, and his eyes turned to Master Qin, who was chatting and laughing with Jia Zuozhen, could it be that the mushroom powder in this hotel was not mixed with any seasoning at all, but was added separately when cooking?

No! No way! He already knows the cost of mushroom powder, and it is a huge waste to use it alone, and according to the hotel's reluctance to replace the old ventilation ducts, they will definitely not be so extravagant!

So, what else is necessary for cooking besides spices?

Qin Siming's gaze swept over the entire back kitchen, and his gaze finally fixed on the bucket of water neatly placed on the wall.

- Water!

Most dishes require a small amount of clean water during the cooking process, even if it is a dish that does not need to be watered, putting two or three spoonfuls will not affect the appearance!

What's more, when passing by the vegetable sink just now, Tang Tian saw a very complete water purification device, why did the hotel have to spend money on these bottled water separately? Isn't this also a waste?

Tang Tian had a faint judgment in his heart, he walked quickly to the bottled water, squatted on the ground and carefully inspected these bottled water with very high-end packaging but no logo.

These bottled water are no different from those used in ordinary water dispensers from a distance, but when you look closely, you will find the difference.

The first is that the material of the bucket is different. The material of this kind of bottled water bucket is obviously thicker, not like a generic bucket, but a special custom for a certain bottled water company.

The second is the sealing of the bucket, on the basis of the disposable sealing device, a two-centimeter-thick silicone leak-proof layer is added, which can not only prevent leakage, but also well isolate odors.

Tang Tian picked out a bucket of pure water with half a bucket left, squeezed the leak-proof layer that had obviously been pierced several times, and leaned his nose up and sniffed lightly.

Sure enough, a faint fragrance penetrated Tang Tian's nostrils!

"It seems that the other party has learned the lesson that mushroom powder is not easy to hide?" After finding the source of the strange fragrance, Tang Tian's mood became even heavier, if it weren't for the fact that the hotel had a perfect water purification device, he wouldn't have turned his suspicious eyes to these pure waters at all, with the confrontation between the Special Investigation Bureau and the Meridian Meeting again and again, the enemy's camouflage became more and more ingenious......

Now that he has found the problem, there is no need for Tang Tian to continue to stay in the back kitchen, he gave Jia Zuozhen, who was talking not far away, and signaled him to stop fooling around and retreat quickly.

Jia Zuozhen saw Tang Tian's eyes, nodded slightly, took out his mobile phone and glanced at the time, and exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Oops! Bad thing! I hit it off with Master Qin at first sight, and I forgot to look at the time while chatting! I still have to pick up a friend, Master Qin, I'll be the east another day, let's talk while eating! Today's incident has caused you trouble!"

"Look at what you said! What's not troublesome, don't delay here, hurry up and pick up your friend, I'll take the time to go to your restaurant these days to have a look, it's still the same sentence, I know everything!" Master Qin got up and sent the two of them out, seeing that it was almost half a day, he was also in a hurry to go back to rest, this was a tiring day, and he was also fighting hard at this time and Jia Zuozhen Kan Dashan!

Under Master Qin's enthusiastic send-off, Tang Tian and the others got into a taxi, went to the train station on purpose, and took a taxi back after a turn.

Along the way, Tang Tian was quite curious, how did this old god stick know that this person could speak in the back kitchen?
