This is also a good opportunity for Zhao Zixian. When I was the boss, I was dealing with struggles with other large companies, and I didn't know anything about the employees.

Walking to the cafeteria with other new employees, Xiao Yong couldn't help but make a "tsk" sound from his mouth. Zhao Zixian also felt very satisfied, this is the atmospheric style of Zhao's hot pot, and the staff ate a buffet.

The tables are separated by tin boxes, which contain a variety of meals. Tomato scrambled eggs, milk, chicken cakes, burgers. Ramen, fruit juice, soy milk, fried dough sticks, fried chicken thighs, duck neck, fried noodles with pho, etc., Chinese food is also available, and Western food is also available. Eating and drinking, there are more than 20 kinds of meals in total.

A variety of meals can make people who are not hungry feel appetizing. Not to mention Zhao Zixian, they are indeed hungry.

Zhao Zixian took a glass of milk, two chicken cakes, and a plate of egg fried rice. Xiao Yong is a variety of dishes sandwiched on a large plate. All kinds of dishes are mixed together, and I can't tell which one is which.

And Fat Rong took one chicken leg, two chicken legs, and three chicken legs. No wonder you are tall and strong, O Nima, and you can eat three chicken legs without drinking a glass of water.

Such a working environment, no matter how oppressive the manager is, is worth it, no wonder when Zhao Zixian just returned to Haikou that day, there was such a long queue of applicants at the door.

Anyway, Fat Rong is now obedient to Zhao Zixian, so Xiao Yong and Thin Monkey, together with Zhao Zixian, are of course people in a circle, and the four of them found a table and sat down. There were people around who had seen Fat Rong yesterday, and they were all surprised, how could this person have such a good relationship with Zhao Zixian.

As soon as I ate the other half of the meal, I saw a person hurrying over at the door of the canteen to interview the manager.

"Rub, as soon as this person comes, nothing good happens." Zhao Zixian thought to himself.

Sure enough, the manager went straight to Zhao Zixian and Fat Rong and them, but his face was a little anxious, he pointed to the four of them, and said, "You guys, come on, come on, don't eat yet, come with me quickly." ”

scolded in his heart, the identity of the manager was there, Zhao Zixian's current identity was an ordinary employee, and he still had to obey the management. And looking at the manager's expression, it is completely different from when he deliberately rectified himself in the morning, maybe there is something.

At this time, Zhao Zixian had just eaten a chicken cake and drank half a glass of milk. And Fat Rong had already eaten two chicken legs, standing up and following the manager, still holding the last chicken leg in his hand and gnawing on it.

The manager walked and said: "First of all, I want to say that you have worked hard, but don't say that I don't take care of you, just now a guest came, I have to eat our hot pot, you also know that this early morning, the chefs have not come yet, you go up to prepare first, to noon the boss came, see that you are still so diligent, I will definitely be happy, and it can be of great help to your future in Zhao's hot pot." ”

Of course, Zhao Zixian would not have been so kind to this manager, but in fact, the manager's words were half true, that is, there was indeed a guest who came to eat hot pot in the morning, and this was not a good host. The manager saw that the guest was sitting in a BMW 8 Series, driven by a driver, and followed by two black-clad bodyguards. Although I can't figure out how such a master would come to eat hot pot in the morning, but push this business to Zhao Zixian and let Zhao Zixian do it, what kind of hot pot will such a small union do? The manager knew that yesterday's gluttonous duck was made by Fat Rong, so he had already made up his mind how to deal with Zhao Zixian. must let Zhao Zixian mess up this job, then he can sweep the floor out.

Thinking of this, the manager said: "Fat Rong, you hurry up and come with me to the front hall and introduce our dishes to the guests, Xiao Zhao, you go to the back kitchen to prepare the hot pot base and various dishes, and make the dishes platter look good." ”

The manager made up his mind that Zhao Zixian couldn't make hot pot, so he asked him to prepare the bottom of the pot. When the hot pot served by Zhao Zixian was a mess, he severely reprimanded Zhao Zixian in front of the guests, and then asked Zhao Zixian to get out of the way and go home.

But I didn't expect Zhao Zixian to agree so happily.

The manager and Fat Rong went to the front hall, and Zhao Zixian went to the back kitchen with Thin Monkey and Xiao Yong.

"Cut, want to yin me? No way, sooner or later, I'll get tired of playing and kick you out. Zhao Zixian sneered and said.

Looking at Xiao Yong, he was still happy that the manager said that he would be promoted. choked Zhao Zixian, so he deliberately scared him and said: "Xiao Yong, you hurry up and prepare these few things for me, I want to use them, this hot pot can't be done well, and our work will be finished." ”

As soon as he heard that he had a salary of seven or eight thousand yuan a month, and that he would lose his job of being able to drink milk and eat chicken legs, Xiao Yongke was anxious: "Brother Xiao Zhao, you hurry up, I'll go and prepare immediately, make sure not to delay your business, grinding guns in battle, it's not good for me, although I don't know how to make hot pot, you tell me a little, I can help you more or less." ”

Zhao Zixian couldn't help but look at Xiao Yong twice, and thought: Are you stupid or fine, say you are stupid, you have a lot of witty words. didn't say much at the moment, only said: "Bare fart, if you can't do it well, we both have to leave bare-assed." ”

"No, I don't want a bare butt."

"Then why don't you hurry up and get something for me."

"Uh-huh, okay, Brother Zhao, you can say it."

Zhao Zixian said slowly: "You can remember, you go to the cold storage, take out the big bones of the cow, the pig bones, the chicken rack, and the frozen butter, take these things first." It's all in the cold storage, take it and come to the back kitchen to find me. After speaking, he was afraid that Xiao Yong would not be able to remember, so he helped him strengthen his memory again, but the method of strengthening was not to repeat the name of the thing he wanted to take, but to say loudly: "Remember, if you look at it, we will all get out of the way with bare butts." ”

"Uh-huh." Xiao Yong nodded fiercely, and before he had time to say anything, he ran to the cold storage.

Zhao Zixian walked unhurriedly to the back kitchen, thinking as he walked: You bastard manager, you are really ruthless, you actually let a newcomer make hot pot, fortunately it is me, if you change any newcomer, you will definitely mess up.

Ordinary people think that hot pot is easy to make, which is a big mistake. Hot pot? Isn't it just a pot of water to boil, a hot pot base is poured, a little monosodium glutamate, salt or not according to the taste, and when it rolls away, what dish you want to eat is put in and boiled? It's a able-bodied person, what's so difficult?

But there is a problem that everyone generally ignores, that is, the seemingly simple "put in the hot pot base." "Of course, it's easy to put in this matter, but where does the hot pot base come from? Ordinary families buy it directly, so can it be called?

The first dish Zhao Zixian learned was beer duck, and this beer duck is a hot pot dish. This dish accompanied Zhao Zixian from an unknown little worker, to a famous chef in the catering industry, and then to the owner of his own catering company. Just like his first woman, hot pot has indescribable feelings for Zhao Zixian.

Zhao Zixian's first store later opened, which is now Zhao's hot pot restaurant, in addition to financial problems, it is also a big reason that he has always loved hot pot.

As soon as he arrived at the kitchen, Xiao Yong ran over with this big bag of things in a hurry. It seems that Xiao Yong attaches much importance to this job of drinking milk and eating chicken legs.

"Well, Xiao Yong, put the things away, you go and get these things again, dried chili, ginger, garlic, green onions, rock sugar, star anise, hexagonal, cinnamon, cumin, anise, grass fruit, cloves." Zhao Zixian said the names of a large list of seasonings in one breath.

Xiao Yong ran out with a "whoosh", then quickly turned his head and said, "That, Brother Xiao Zhao, you just said that I don't know anything except green onions, ginger, garlic, and rock sugar." What size pentagonal hexagonal. ”

"Yes," Zhao Zixian slapped his thigh, and I had to go by myself. He also instructed Xiao Yong: "You go to the front hall to see how the manager and Fat Rong explained to the guests." After speaking, he added, "Don't go in, just look outside the door, don't let them see you." ”

Xiao Yongmu agreed: "Oh." "Maybe he's still worried about his good job.

"Oh what. Do you understand? Zhao Zixian asked.

"Understood, understood, it's my sneaky past." Xiao Yong said very sincerely.

“…… Almost, go for it. ”

After Xiao Yong left, Zhao Zixian began to make hot pot bases, and after preparing the ingredients. Pour peanut oil for stir-frying vegetables into a wok, wait for the oil to be hot, cut the yellowed butter into small pieces, pour it into the oil and start boiling, and soon the butter will be boiled and mixed with peanut oil. When the butter is almost done, cut the green onions, ginger, garlic and dried chili peppers into large pieces and pour them in. After pouring it in, I turned off the fire of the gas a little. One lid. Sitting on a chair with Erlang's legs crossed, I don't know what to think.

After a while, the spicy taste of butter and chili peppers couldn't even cover the lid of the pot, and slowly overflowed. Zhao Zixian sniffed his nose, stood up and lifted the lid of the pot, and took a big chopstick with the characteristics of fried fritters, as if a martial arts master made a sword in the movie.

At this time, Zhao Zixian took a breath, took out a handful of rock candy, put it on the board, and slapped it down. When he lifted his palm, the rock candy had already been shaken into powder. Use a knife to remove the icing sugar powder and pour it into the pot, and add star anise, hexagonal, cinnamon, cumin, anise, grass fruit, and cloves. I turned on the low heat and boiled slowly, only to see that the butter in the pot was mixed with various spices, and my eyes became deeper and darker. It is almost as sticky as ice cream. I turned off the heat and put on a large pressure cooker.

As soon as he added water to the pressure cooker and was about to start the fire, Xiao Yong trotted in.

Zhao Zixian asked, "What's the situation now?" See? ”

That person seemed to be quite magnificent, and Fat Rong and the manager both lowered their heads in front of him and didn't dare to speak. The guest asked the two of them how to eat hot pot, and the two of them couldn't answer, hey, who wouldn't eat hot pot? Xiao Yong said lightly.
