In Lu Zhiang's expectant gaze, Hu Lei nodded imperceptibly, and then took another bite.

"How's that?", Lu Zhiang continued to ask.

Although Hu Lei closed his eyes and shook his head at this time, he looked quite enjoyable, but Lu Zhiang was still a little apprehensive in his heart, God knows if Boss Hu was sick again.

One bite, one bite, one bite.

The begonia crisp is only the size of a palm, and a few bites of begonia crisp have been wiped out by Hu Lei.

Because he has not eaten the products of the system, Hu Lei has no way to compare. But just talking about this begonia crisp, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is definitely the most delicious pastry he has ever tasted in his life.

I thought that after being fried at high temperature, this begonia crisp would taste a little greasy. But the truth is the opposite, this thing not only smells non-greasy, but also tastes like a burst of flowers.

Eating it in one bite, it is like coming to spring, and the begonias are in full bloom. Isn't there a poet who praised begonias, the so-called, "a city of incense at one time", which feels wonderful.

As a pastry, appearance is important, but more important is the texture and taste.

In this regard, Lu Zhiang's begonia cake is also very well done.

The skin is crispy, and when you bite into it, it's full of crumbs like flowers blooming on the tip of your tongue. In contrast to the crispy crust, it is soft and moisturized inside. The lotus paste stuffing wrapped in it is fried at high temperature, making it more and more sweet and delicious.

"It's great, Brother Lu, you really don't have to say anything about your craftsmanship. Hu Lei said with heartfelt admiration.

Hearing this, Lu Zhiang's face showed a hint of self-satisfaction. Although the past few years have not been satisfactory, and even his work is unstable, he is very confident in his craft, especially the upheaval in the past few years, which has made him have a deeper understanding of pastry.

Gu Qianqian also pinched a piece and tasted it.

Looking at Gu Qianqian's delicate red lips one by one, Hu Lei suddenly felt a little dry mouth, he subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and then stretched out his tongue and licked his lips.

Believe me, what he is looking at is definitely the begonia cake in Gu Qianqian's hand, not the red lips.

After a while, Gu Qianqian also finished eating, and Hu Lei asked, "Qianqian, how is it." ”

Miss Gu's feeling was far less intense than Hu Lei's, and she said leisurely, "The taste is not bad, but it is still much worse than the one in our store." She has already said this very tactfully, it is true that this begonia crisp tastes good, but it is not at the same level as the system at all.

As soon as she said this, both men were stunned.

What Hu Lei thinks about is how delicious the system is. When I think of this, my heart is itching. For the sake of his appetite, he immediately began to bargain with ET.

And Lu Zhiang completely returned to reality because of Gu Qianqian's words. Just like Gu Qianqian said, her level can only be regarded as good, and she also ate Mao Fengshu just now, and she doesn't know how many grades higher than herself.

At that moment, he suddenly became firm, "Boss Hu, I don't know if I'm qualified to stay." ”

Yes, Lu Zhiang decided not to bother anymore, even if Hu Lei was really a manic plus sperm patient, it didn't matter, he had to stay, just because he could get access to more advanced skills here.

Hu Lei was protesting with ET at this time, and he was finally happy to hear Lu Zhiang's words. Although ET doesn't give face, but with Lu Zhiang, he will not be short of food in the future, there are Gu Qianqian for dinner, and Lu Zhiang for snacks, it's really beautiful to think about.

By the way, I will leave a pastry for Lu Zhiang every day in the future, so that he can try to see if he can copy it. Isn't it said that awesome chefs have a powerful skill that can be made immediately after tasting a dish, and Lu Zhiang's pastry chef should not be bad.

"Of course, I appreciate your pastries, and from today you will be the only pastry chef in the shop. ”

"The only one?", Lu Zhiang was a little confused.

"Ahem, I mean the only resident pastry chef. Hu Lei hurriedly remedied.

"Doesn't that master usually come to the store?," Lu Zhiang asked, this matter was his greatest concern.

"You said that it was the master, the master is very busy, why does he come to the store every day!", Hu Lei began to make up nonsense.

"Oh. Lu Zhiang was obviously a little disappointed, "How often does the master come?"

"Don't worry, although I don't come often, I will come once in a long time. Hu Lei continued to flicker, "As long as you behave well, I will ask the master to give you guidance." Not to mention ......"

"You can get access to the master's work every day in the shop, which is not a treat anywhere else!"

I don't know if he was fooled by Hu Lei or if Lu Zhiang figured it out by himself, he nodded heavily, "Then I will ask Boss Hu to take care of it from now on." ”

Hu Lei grinned so much that he grinned, "It's easy to say, since you are already an employee of the shop, then don't call Boss Hu Boss Hu, you can call me Hu Lei and Lao Hu." ”

"I ......", Lu Zhiang was silent for a moment, "I'll call you boss!"

"Well, whatever you want. Hu Lei shrugged helplessly, "Then what do I call you?"

"Boss, you can call me ......"

"Yes, I'll call you marinade, simple and easy to remember. ”

The corners of Lu Zhiang's mouth, who was interrupted by Hu Lei and then forced to have a nickname, twitched, and was about to refute it, but Hu Lei stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder, and said happily, "It's decided." ”

"This is Gu Qianqian, the manager of our store, you can call her Qianqian. ”

"This is Lu Zhiang, and he will be the pastry chef of our shop in the future, so you can call him marinade like me. ”

Hu Lei really introduced Gu Qianqian and Lu Zhiang, Gu Qianqian nodded with a smile, and the corners of Lu Zhiang's mouth twitched again when he heard the name marinade.

Since he was already his own employee, Hu Lei couldn't help but be curious, "By the way, marinade, I see that your level is very high, and your basic skills are solid, how can you mix so poorly." ”

Hu Lei has already said it very tactfully, just this guy has no more than three hundred yuan on his body, and the suitcase that should have been scrapped a long time ago, where is this bad, it is clearly a failure!

Maybe it was because he was inexplicably more cordial and identified with Hu Lei after officially joining the shop, and when he heard Hu Lei's question, Lu Zhiang suddenly felt that his stomach of bitterness had finally found a place to vent.

He said with a bitter face, "Boss, don't you know, the classical pastry chefs are now in decline, and the traditional teahouses and pastry shops have closed down or transformed, and the living space of us classical pastry chefs is getting smaller and smaller." ”

Hu Lei nodded in understanding, this guy is like studying an unpopular major in college, and it is difficult to find a corresponding job after graduation, in this case, he will either change careers or will inevitably be poor.

"Then you haven't thought about opening a store by yourself?", Gu Qianqian was also curious. Although the evaluation of Begonia Crisp just now was not very high, she also knew that it was just a comparison with the system products, in fact, Lu Zhiang's pastries were still quite good.

Hearing Gu Qianqian's question, Lu Zhiang was stunned for a moment, and said bitterly, "I wanted to open a store three years ago, but then something happened, and it was over." ”

Hu Lei and Gu Qianqian both heard some different emotions from Lu Zhiang's words, and the two looked at each other, there is a story in between.

However, Lu Zhiang did not seem to have any intention of going into details, and he continued, "It was also from that time that I became a wandering pastry chef, traveling all over the world to learn and improve my skills. ”

"Good ambition. Hu Lei gave him a thumbs up, this kind of person who moves forward bravely for his dreams is admirable.

"However, with your ability, even if you do it in the short term, you should have a lot of income, at least not ......"

Hu Lei's words are obvious, at least not as much as he is now.

Lu Zhiang was very embarrassed, he pulled the corners of his mouth, "Boss, I won't tell you, I don't know what bad luck I have taken in the past few years, so nothing has gone well." ”

"Being bitten by a dog is not worth mentioning. ”

"Let's just say that last week, the teahouse where I worked closed down and was transferred. ”

"Last month, the pastry shop where I work closed down due to complaints about the use of expired raw materials. ”

"Last month, the kitchen caught fire in the middle of the night, but luckily there was no one in the store at the time, and when the owner arrived, the whole store burned to ashes. ”

Nima, this is the Heavenly Evil Lone Star, Hu Lei heard a cold sweat.

"...... half a year ago"

"Something happened in the store again?", Hu Lei, as the new "boss of Lu Zhiang", felt very bad. He suddenly began to worry about whether it was the right choice to stay with Lu Zhiang, and he wouldn't worry about the shop every day in the future.

"It's not that something happened in the store. Lu Zhiang shook his head.

"That's good. Hu Lei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"It was the boss's son who hit someone with his car, and as a result, in order to make up for the compensation, he had to sell the store. ”

“……”

Yes, in addition to worrying about the small shop, I also have to worry about whether Du Xiaoxiao will have an accident.

"And ......"

Hu Lei felt that his whole person was not good.
