The black-faced man with a bun face who came to try the dishes today is a candidate introduced by Ding Basket to apply for the head chef of the new restaurant.

Zhou An has plans to open four more branches this year, and he wants to prepare all four branches before the arrival of this year's crayfish season and officially open to the public.

So, just a few days after the New Year, he was looking for a chef for the new restaurant.

The ancients said: A thousand armies are easy to get, and a general is hard to find.

For him, the head chef is equivalent to the general of a restaurant, and whether he can choose a good head chef is directly related to the success or failure of a new restaurant.

That's why the first thing he does every time he prepares a branch is to find a chef.

It can be said that today is an important day, and if someone else calls in at this time, he may directly refuse to answer.

But at this time, the call was from the eldest cousin Xia Wenjing......

"Mr. Zhou, you can answer the phone first! It's okay, really. ”

The bun-faced black-faced man who was applying for the job smiled and gestured loudly, because he noticed that Zhou An was hesitating.

Ding Basket, who introduced him, also smiled and echoed: "Yes, Mr. Zhou, you should answer the phone first! We will wait for you." ”

Zhou An glanced at them, nodded with a smile, and got up, "Okay! Then you wait for me, I'm sorry!"

As he spoke, he made his way to the door of the store as he answered the call.

"Sister, is there something wrong?"

As soon as the phone rang, he asked in a low voice.

On the phone, Xia Wenjing: "Xiao An, I have a woman here who claims to be Lin Jiaojiao's friend, she said that she has a life-threatening matter to tell you, and I hope you can come back, you see...... Would you like to say a few words to her?"

Hearing this, Zhou An was a little speechless.

The words "human life is at stake" made him feel like a joke.

What is so serious?

Why don't you say that the earth is going to explode, please let me save the earth?

I don't wear my underwear outside, do you think I'm Superman?

However, the words "Lin Jiaojiao's friend" made his heart move slightly, and Lin Jiaojiao has always had a status in his heart.

Standing at the door of the store, groaning slightly, Zhou An spoke: "Sister, is she next to you now?"

Xia Wenjing: "Yes, she's looking at me to call you." ”

Zhou An: "Okay, then you give her the phone! I'll hear what she has to say." ”

Xia Wenjing: "Okay, then you wait!"

A few seconds later, the phone changed to Zhou An's slightly familiar female voice, "Zhou An?"

Zhou An smiled faintly, "It's me!

"I'm Julie! We met in your county's food street two days ago, and Jiaojiao introduced us to each other at that time, do you still have an impression?"

Zhou An raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh, it's you? Well, I remember you, hello! Hehe, just now my sister told me that you have a life-threatening matter to tell me? What is the specific matter?"

Julie: "It's about Jiaojiao!"

Zhou An smiled faintly, "Is her life in danger?"

Julie: "Yes!"

The smile on the corner of Zhou An's mouth suddenly froze, his brows furrowed together, and for a moment, his breathing seemed to stop.

After a moment of silence, he asked in a deep voice, "Are you sure? You're not joking?"

Julie: "You and I have only met once, do you think I need to go out of my way to find your store and ask your cousin to call you and make such a joke with you?"

Zhou An gritted his teeth, his eyes narrowed slightly, "She...... What's wrong with her? You say be specific!"

Julie: "It's complicated, I can't explain it in a few words, maybe even if I say it, you won't believe it, can you come back? I have something for you! When you read it, I'm sure you can understand it all." ”

……

When Zhou An answered the call and walked back to Mi Fei and Ding Basket, his face was not very good-looking, and his expression was a little solemn.

The black-faced man with the bun face who came to try the dish today saw it, smiled slightly bitterly, and realized that he was afraid that his trial today might be hanging, and he was in a bad mood to catch up with the boss, what can he do?

Zhou An tilted his head slightly to Liang Yu, "Brother Yu, you go start the car first, and then send me back to the county!"

Liang Yu was curious, but he didn't ask, nodded and went out.

Zhou An's eyes fell on the black-faced man with the bun face who tried the dishes today, smiled apologetically, but didn't say anything, reached out and took a calendula, ate an egg tart, and ate a bite of the scallop chicken in the marigold, there were seven marigolds on the plate, and each marigold was filled with scallops and chickens.

After taking a bite, squinting and tasting the taste, Zhou An nodded slightly, smiled at the black-faced man with the bun face, and said: "It tastes good! Master Cheng, if you have no problem over there, you can sign a contract with us next, you can talk to my assistant Mi Fei in detail about the specific contract, I still have something to do, I need to go back to my hometown, so I can't accompany you, sorry!"

Cheng Huayong is the name of the man with a bun face and a black face.

He was mentally prepared to fail today's food trial just now, Zhou An's words at this time were a surprise to him, and he got up excitedly and said: "Ah, okay, okay! No problem, Mr. Zhou! If you have something, you can go and get busy, I don't care here!

Zhou An squeezed out a smile and nodded slightly, nodded to Mi Fei and Ding Basket, and said to Mi Fei: "The next contract will be handed over to you!

Mi Fei got up: "Okay, no problem!"

Ding Basket interjected: "Mr. Zhou, you go slowly!"

Zhou An nodded, turned around and left.

……

On the speeding car, Zhou An seemed to close his eyes and recuperate, but in fact, he kept thinking about what happened to Lin Jiaojiao, why was his life in danger?

That woman named Julie, what is there to give him?

……

Yinma County.

Julie was still waiting in Zhou An's shop, and she was very patient.

Xia Wenjing asked someone to make her a cup of tea, and arranged Julie to sit at a table by the window.

But Julie, who was waiting for Zhou An to come back, was very indifferent, cherishing words like gold, no matter how Xia Wenjing tried it, she was tight-lipped.

If this is repeated, Xia Wenjing's patience has also run out, so she simply let her sit there alone and wait, Xia Wenjing returned to the bar and continued to lie down and rest.

The waiting time seems to have passed very long, usually an hour feels like a flash, but today Julie sat there waiting, but it felt that the time was very slow.

During this period, she received a call from Lin Jiaojiao's mother, Yan Xihua.

On the phone, Yan Xihua asked her, "Xiao Zhu, I heard my brother say that the notebook you found from Jiaojiao's locker is blank? How is this possible? Are you sure it's really blank?"

Julie: "Yes, Auntie, I also think it's incredible, but it's true, I've already handed over the notebook to President Yan, if you don't believe it, you can read it yourself." ”
