Volume 1 The Pirate Flag of Faith Chapter 30 Grand Maison Tokyo

Wu Sheng and the three of them went up to the second floor, the view suddenly opened, this restaurant looks like a three-story building from the outside, in fact, there is no partition between the second floor and the third floor, so the height of the second floor is two floors close to 6 meters high, making the whole restaurant environment look unusually open.

The floor area of the room is not large, only about 140 square meters, including the terrace, it is less than 200 square meters.

To Wu Sheng's surprise, half of the kitchen was in the room. Because it's an open kitchen, it still doesn't look particularly crowded, and it's obviously been carefully designed.

Due to the area, the number of tables is small, but each table is unusually clean, with pure white hot tablecloths, neat and bright plates, cutlery and cutlery, and decorative flowers placed in the center of the table, making the dining environment very comfortable.

"Nami-san, let's take a look here with Luffy first, Takeda, you and I will go to see Chef Ryoko, Mr. Kyono, I'll take care of you here." After coming to the second floor, Sanji's whole person became extremely stable, and his momentum seemed to rise.

"Is this what the kitchen does for cooks?" Wu Sheng and the other three nodded and said hello, and followed him into the kitchen, thinking as they thought.

Not to mention Nami and Luffy who are visiting the restaurant.

Takeshi followed Sanji into the kitchen from the side and saw the chef of this restaurant, who turned out to be a female chef with a gentle temperament. This is French cuisine, where male chefs dominate.

"He must be a very powerful person, after all, Sanjito works as an assistant chef here." Wu Sheng, who knew Sanji's talent, looked at the female chef with a peaceful atmosphere in front of him.

At the age of about 40 years old, the years have brought her not wrinkles and exhaustion, but a more and more precipitated and translucent life.

"Hello, I'm Takeda Xu, a classmate of Sanji, and I hope to work part-time in your store, washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, and washing dishes, as long as I can help, I can do it."

"Haha, don't be so restrained, since it's a friend brought by Sanji-chan, we must all be trustworthy." The female chef looked at the young man in front of him with a smile, with neat short hair, firm eyes, and neat and clean facial features, obviously only a freshman in high school, but with an unusually mature temperament.

"Yes, after all, Sanji-chan has been here for more than half a year, and I haven't heard of any friends from him." A young lady next to me who was playing cream came over with a smile and said, "Hello, my name is Songjing Menghua, and the little brother just calls me Menghua." ”

"Well, yes, everyone is a very good person to get along with here, just treat it normally, by the way, I haven't introduced myself yet." The female chef said, "I am the manager and head chef of this restaurant, so please take care of me when I see Ryuko early." ”

"Ah, please take care of me." Wu Sheng hurriedly said.

"Well, since we are all friends, we can get to know each other slowly in the future, and we are preparing today's ingredients." Chef Ryūko looked at the clock on the wall, "What you have to do at a part-time job, let Sanji tell you about it, and the specific hourly salary of a part-time job, Mr. Kyono will communicate with you later." ”

In the whole kitchen, in addition to Chef Lunzi and Miss Matsukei, there are 2 male chefs who are busy processing the ingredients on the side, and the whole kitchen plus Sanji is only 5 people, which just matches the number of customers in the restaurant. "Okay, okay, you get busy first." Wu Sheng hurriedly said.

With such a number of members, there must also be a logistics staff who is responsible for washing the dishes, closing the dishes, washing the dishes, and serving, otherwise it will waste a lot of time for the chef to do these things.

And the most troublesome and annoying thing in the kitchen is the closing of the dishes and the washing of dishes.

"So, your first week here is to do the laundry, the dishes, and the vegetables. When you are familiar with it, I will teach you some French food serving etiquette, and then let you take on the task of serving food. Sanji walked around the kitchen with Takekatsu, and introduced as he spoke.

"If you're interested in cooking yourself, we can teach you how to do it~," said the bespectacled chef who was handling fish next to him.

"This is Mr. Aizawa, a very good chef and a well-known 'cooking video nobleman' on the Internet." Sanji said with a very embarrassing title.

"Poof!" Wu Sheng couldn't hold back for a moment, laughed, and then reacted: "I'm sorry..... Mr. Aizawa looks very steady, but this noble boy didn't react at once. ”

"Hahaha, Aizawa, I'm not wrong! It's really funny that you're titled. Another male chef laughed loudly.

Sanji's face became more serious, and he stretched out his hand to make an inviting gesture and introduced, "This is the sous chef of Ohana and my master." ”

“!!!”

Wu Sheng looked at the man's handsome black face, his pupils shrunk, "My mother, Takuya Kimura???? ”

"What's the situation?" Wu Shengren was stunned, his mind turned rapidly, and he checked all his existing memories in an instant, and there were no film and television works related to this person.

"Ahh The man who looked like Takuya Kimura looked at Takekatsu with surprise in his eyes, as if he recognized himself.

Wu Sheng reacted, found that he was a little out of shape, and hurriedly explained: "No, no, I feel familiar." Maybe Mr. Oyaka is too handsome. ”

"Hahaha, the lad is really good at talking! Good work, I'm optimistic about you! ”

"Uh...... "Wu Sheng doesn't know how to answer, I'm a miscellaneous person, what do you like about me......

"How so?" Chef Lunko leaned over and said, "Mr. Obana is also very famous in a sense." ”

"Hey, this kind of thing is in the past, there's no need to talk about it anymore, right?" Takuya Kimura.... Uh-huh, Tail said dissatisfiedly.

"Hey, hey!" Chef Lunzi smiled and turned his head to Wu Sheng, "Sanji has made it clear to you, right?" ”

Wu Sheng's mind was clear: "Well, it's all clear. ”

"Okay, you go and say hello to Mr. Kyono again. If that's all right, I'd like to be able to start today, because the kitchen is really tight right now. ”

"Okay."

Takesheng and Sanji said hello to the other people and went to the lobby.

Luffy and Nami are sitting at a table, each eating a cake.

Seeing their eyes light up, they eat quickly and don't want to finish it, it seems to be quite delicious.

Sanji said to the middle-aged waiter standing aside, "Mr. Kyono, we have already met with Chef Ryūko, and I have also told Takeda about the specific work, so I will leave him to you now." ”

Then he said to Nami and Luffy at the table: "Nami-san~ Hmm, then I won't disturb you to enjoy the food, now that it's about to open, I'm going to help." ”

"Okay, okay." Luffy and Nami nodded repeatedly, feeling that today's trip was worth it.

"Hmm." Sanji nodded, gestured to Takekatsu again, and went to the kitchen.

Wu Sheng didn't care about the two people eating next to him, and greeted the man named Jingye politely: "Hello, I'm Takeda Xu who will work here next, please take care of me." ”

"Uh-huh, please take care of me." Kyono looked at him and continued, "We have never hired a part-time high school student before, and it was also at noon that Sanji called us and strongly recommended you to us. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Sanji, who was busy in the kitchen: "We just happen to be short of manpower now, and since Sanji recommends it, we will also believe you." ”

Jing Ye turned around, his momentum changed, and his face became serious: "But we are a star-rated restaurant, so the requirements for employees will naturally be very high." ”

"Understood." Wu Sheng also responded seriously.

Kyono looked serious and nodded, understanding that he was going to his heart.

So his expression relaxed, and he continued with a smile: "Our part-time job here is 2,000 yen per hour, which is a little higher than many places outside, and I hope you can understand the seriousness of this job, and don't be negligent because the job is not technical, I hope you can take it seriously." ”

Wu Sheng nodded in surprise, he didn't expect to give such a high salary, the minimum hourly wage in Tokyo, Japan is 985 yen/hour, and the relatively high one can be given 1200.

He thought that the star restaurant, with a high card, would be about 1,500, but he didn't expect to give 2,000 yen/hour.

"Okay! I'm going to work hard. ”

"Okay, and then I'll talk about other things:

Wages are paid on a daily basis.

For dinner, the chefs at the restaurant will cook staff meals.

If you are interested in learning how to cook, you can also ask the chefs for advice in their free time, they are not hesitant to teach.

......”

Kyono's series of matters include various benefits and vacation systems.

Finally, he said, "If you are going to quit this job, please let us know 2 weeks in advance, and we can hire someone to replace you." ”

Wu Sheng remembered them one by one, and then nodded at him, indicating that he had memorized them all: "I can start working today." ”

"Oh? That's a great favor, so I'll take you to get your overalls. Kyino was overjoyed, the busy kitchen in the past two days made him also worried, and hurriedly took him to the back kitchen.

"Then I'll go first, and you guys can watch for yourselves." Wu Sheng greeted the two who were eating.

"Go, go, go!" Both waved their hands and signaled that they would leave later.

At this time, Sanji ran over with three small bowls of seafood soup.

"Nami-san~ Let's try the seafood soup I made!"

"Thank you, Sanji-san." Nami was a lot happier after eating the dim sum, and took the soup brought by Sanji with a smile on her face.

"Hi~, Luffy, this is yours, what about Takeda?" He also prepared for Luffy and Wu Sheng, and he also had a heart.

"He went in to change his clothes and said he would start working today."

"Oh? What a fierce guy. Sanji raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"Alright, now that everything is going well, it's time for us to take our leave." After Nami finished the seafood soup, she got up and said, "It's time for me to go back and quit my job at the restaurant where I work." ”

"Okay, then let's go." Luffy also got up and said to Sanji, "Thank you for your hospitality, Takeda will please you." ”

"Oh, no problem." Sanji replied, "I'll see you tomorrow morning ~Nami-san~"

"Uh-huh, bye-bye."

------

By the time Takeshi came out, Luffy and the two had already left, and Sanji said to him.

He started a new life as a part-time worker.

However, the first day did not let him deal with complicated things.

First of all, he helped Jingye, that is, the lobby manager, to place tableware, plates and decorative flowers.

Then it was to wash the vegetables in the back kitchen, and everyone hastily ate some to cushion their stomachs before the business, and it was almost 6 o'clock at this time.

The first batch of guests to make reservations arrived at about 6:40, and Kyono and Ryoko gathered everyone together before the opening and officially introduced Takeda: "This is our new partner, Takeda Asahi, who is a high school student like Sanji, so you should take good care of the children." ”

"Hello everyone, my name is Takeda Xu, I will be working in the store for the next time, I can do anything, if you need any help, please feel free to call me, please take care of me in the future." Wu Sheng bowed to the members of the store.

Ah, there are really a lot of such etiquettes in Japan, but thanks to this etiquette, when people first meet each other, a set of processes is completed, and everyone feels less unfamiliar, right? Wu Sheng thought as he nodded his head in thanks to the welcome applause from his new work partners.

"Okay, there's a new force joining today! Let's do our best today to provide our guests with the best food and service! ”

“D’accord chef!” (Okay, Chef)

......

In his last life, Wu Sheng always heard from students who came to study in Japan that part-time work was the basic part of the life of Japanese students.

There are always legends of washing dishes for international students who have gone abroad.

He always wondered, where are there so many plate brushes? From the start of the brush to the closing? Can you brush the plate and brush the history of blood and tears? That's an exaggeration, right?

Now that it was his turn to participate, he realized that there were really many plates of Western food!

French cuisine is famous for its complicated process, exquisite meals, and extreme tastes, although no matter how complex it is, it is not as good as the Manchu and Han banquets in Chinese food, which take six meals in three days to eat.

But the Manchu and Han banquets are for a bunch of people, while the French set meal is for one person.

Among them, appetizers, wine pairings, flavors, stomach-filling, finishing, desserts after the meal, a set down, just 6 or 7 minutes full.

No matter what exercise you do after eating, it doesn't matter, and hiccups or anything don't exist, which can be said to be just right.

And "Grand Maison Tokyo", a French restaurant, is actually a full-course meal.

The full meal, which is recommended by the chef of the restaurant, has no à la carte and no choice other than drinks.

If you want to eat, you have to eat the whole set.

And the course at "Grand Maison Tokyo" has a total of 10 dishes including appetizers!

For one dish per dish, one guest will use 10 plates, 2 is 20, and there can be about 20 guests in a round, and 200 plates to be washed in one round.

This is also because this store is super boutique, consciously limiting the number of customers it picks up, and only receives two rounds of customers per night.

And those large Western restaurants have an extremely high turnover rate every day, and the number of plates produced every day, Wu Sheng can't imagine it.

According to tonight's full house, there will be about 400 plates, and if you manually wash one every minute, you will have to wash it for 7 hours in a row!

Fortunately, with the advancement of the times, the fashionable tool of the dishwasher has already entered the high-end restaurant.

So Wu Sheng's job is actually to close the dishes, put the dishes in the dishwasher, then take them out, and then put them back in their original location, so that the chefs can take them and use them at any time.

But the 400 plates were packed back and forth, which also took up a lot of his time.

Coupled with washing vegetables or something, one night, it was unusually fulfilling!

Seeing off the last batch of guests, Wu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and threw the last batch of plates into the dishwasher.

"It's okay, little brother!" The young lady named Songjing Menghui ran over, and Wu Sheng observed, she was in charge of making dim sum.

"You're amazing! I can't tell you're on your first day at work! She patted Wu Sheng on the shoulder.

"Sanji! The little brother you introduced is so amazing! Cooking tonight was very comfortable! When each dish is almost ready, there is always a sufficient number of corresponding plates at my hand. Sous Chef Ohana cleaned up the kitchen and praised Sanji, "My efficiency has increased by about 10% today?" ”

"yes, in the past, when I was halfway open, I always had to find the plate by myself, which was so annoying." The young lady continued to pat Wu Sheng's shoulder to show her greatest praise.

The height of 1.5 meters makes her a little funny: "Although the 10 kinds of plates in our store look similar, the actual size is different, and the dishes are also different, but I paid attention to it tonight, and you didn't make a mistake!" ”

"If you look closely, you can still tell." Wu Sheng smiled absently.

What are you kidding, his brain is now filled with all kinds of information every second, all the information he has read, heard, and seen, all in an orderly manner waiting to be called.

So washing and handing over a plate is not a matter for him at all.

"Awesome!" Chef Lunzi also ran over and praised Wu Sheng, "The matter of handing over the plate can actually improve the efficiency of the chef!" ”

"Probably doing it while looking for a plate, interrupting the smoothness of cooking, right?" Wu Sheng thought for a while and speculated: "It's okay at first, but when the first round of plates runs out, everyone's cooking process will be disrupted by taking plates?" ”

"You've just arrived, so you know who's in charge of which dish?" The noble son Aizawa was also shocked.

"If you look closely, you'll know that there are only ten dishes in total." Wu Sheng didn't think it was a big deal, wasn't it just a plate delivery assembly line?

"Ah, I'd love Serita to hear about it here." Songjing Meng said complained.

"Moe painting!" Chef Lunzi glanced at her and told her to shut up.

"Okay, Takeda-kun, it's really hard for you today, let's clean up the rest here, you still have classes tomorrow, go back early."

"I washed the last batch of dishes, and the other batch was in the dishwasher." Wu Sheng looked at the dishwasher.

"Okay, we'll clean up the kitchen too, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." Seeing this, Chef Lunzi smiled gently and walked away, obviously satisfied with this young man.

At this time, Sanji came over and patted Wu Sheng's shoulder: "That's good, Takeda, you deserve to be recognized by Nami's classmates, you are adapting to the speed, is it really the first time you have come out to work?" ”

"Ahh Wu Sheng stared at the dishwasher and responded, suddenly thought of something, turned back to Sanji and said, "Okay, I thought you were an apprentice or something, but I didn't expect you to be in charge of a dish?" ”

"No, Sanji is my proud apprentice, hahahaha!" Sochef Ohana came out from the side and grabbed Sanji's shoulder.

"Tsk, they're all elderly uncles, don't hug and hug, you're not a pretty young lady." Sanji broke off the hand of the sous chef of the tail flower in disgust.

Is the middle-aged man shameless ......? Sous Chef Obana thought to himself, double this eyebrow curl homework tomorrow!

At this time, the lobby manager Jingye came over with an envelope and handed it to Wu Sheng, "This is tonight's salary, I have to say, you surprised me very much, today's second round of guests, all said that today's food taste has improved."

I thought it was Chef Lunzi and they were in good shape, but I didn't expect it to be because of you. ”

"Well, I didn't expect that...... Isn't this routine? Wu Sheng took the envelope and politely did not open it.

"Hahahaha, it will become a regular operation in the future!" Tail Flower Sous Chef laughed loudly.

......

"How?" Sanji and Takesheng walked out of the store together, and the others were still busy in the store, with no intention of leaving work at all.

"How's that?" Wu Shengqi said.

"How does it feel to work part-time?" Sanji smacked him with his shoulder.

Wu Sheng squinted at him, and his tone was mocking: "Ah, can you still wash the dishes to reveal any insights?" ”

"I mean, what do you think of the people in the store?" Sanji's face is black, what do you mean you don't count in your heart?

"Yes, I feel like they're all good people."

"They're all geniuses, okay, they're all chefs with their own beliefs, and you know how lucky you are to be able to work in this shop?"

"I haven't eaten their cooking, how do I know, I only met them on the first day."

"Okay, I'll show you their strength tomorrow!"

"Okay, how do you go back?"

"Metro, what about you?"

"Let's go with me, I'm also on the subway."

"Let's go, then."

------

It was close to half past ten when he returned home, Wu Sheng lay on the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief, opened the envelope, and found a full 10,000 yen, which was already comparable to a full-time convenience store waiter.

Put the money aside, light up your phone, open LINE, and find a message from the small gang group Rinami.
