Chapter 156: Shocking
Hearing this, Carpenter Zhang put down the guy in his hand, rubbed his hands on his shirt, and walked over to Chen Nong: "I know that your kid is reliable, come and sit down and tell your uncle what kind of work it is?" ”
Chen Nong followed Carpenter Zhang and sat down at the table outside the carpenter's room: "This boss took a drawing and said that it must be made exactly as on this drawing, I wonder if Uncle Zhang can do it?" ”
"And the drawings." Carpenter Zhang was in good spirits when he heard it.
He turned out to be the apprentice of a famous carpenter in the state capital, and he was about to leave the school, but later because his parents were old, he returned to this Blackwater Town.
In the past, when he was working in the state capital, he did see the master working according to the drawings, but after returning to the town, no one could use the drawings, and they were all made by saying the drawings, so he never had the opportunity to touch the drawings again.
After so many years, he suddenly heard that this guy had drawings, and Carpenter Zhang was very excited, and he hurriedly said: "Have you brought the drawings, show me quickly." ”
As soon as he saw him like this, Chen Nong knew that he had a score in his heart, so he took out the drawing drawn by Lin Jiu and spread it on the table.
Carpenter Zhang picked up the drawing and looked at it carefully, the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became, he had never seen such a style before, and it took a long time to draw back his senses from the drawing, and asked Chen Nong: "Where did you get this drawing, it is so exquisite." ”
"This is the master's own painting."
After another burst of surprise, Carpenter Zhang asked urgently: "Then why do you want to dig a hole in the middle of this good table, and why add a shelf underneath, isn't it an extra move?" ”
Chen Nong still doesn't know that Lin Jiu is going to make hot pot, he only knows that Lin Jiu is going to open a restaurant, so he can't answer this question.
So he had no choice but to say to Carpenter Zhang: "Since the master asks for this, we can only do this, then Uncle Zhang, you can do it." ”
Carpenter Zhang nodded: "I can do it, but I am really curious, if it is convenient, you can bring this customer to my place, I have a few questions to ask." ”
Chen Nong knew that Lin Jiu would definitely not take care of this matter from the morning when Lin Jiu handed over a large mess of things, and looked like he was the shopkeeper, so he took the lead and shirked it for her.
"The main family is still very busy with Zhang Luo's business, and I really can't spare time to come here, otherwise I wouldn't have handed over this job to Zhang Luo."
Carpenter Zhang didn't give up and said: "Since the master's house is inconvenient, then can you take me to see it, if I don't ask clearly, I have a pimple in my heart, and I can't understand this work." ”
Seeing Carpenter Zhang say this, Chen Nong had no choice but to agree.
The two discussed, and Carpenter Zhang didn't care about the work at hand, beckoned his daughter-in-law to help him wash up, changed his clothes, and followed Chen Nong to Lin Jiu's house.
Lin Jiu handed over all the things about the decoration of the store to Chen Nong, and began to concentrate on studying the dishes to be added in the restaurant.
In addition to hot pot, this medicinal diet seems to be also considered, and these days, the Zhao family and the old lady of the Zheng family have seen that their complexions have improved, indicating that the effect is good.
There is also her original wild mushroom meat sauce, although this can only be sold in the Zeng family's restaurant, but she can also develop other flavors of sauce.
I kept thinking about these things in my head, so Lin Jiu was busy in the kitchen all morning.
When Chen Nong led Carpenter Zhang to arrive, Lin Jiu hadn't come out yet, but the Zhao family saw Chen Nong first.
Lin Jiu had already told the Zhao family that Chen Nong was her newly hired buddy in the store, and the Zhao family also treated Chen Nong with a pleasant face: "The young man is done, so hurry up and take a break, and stay here to eat for a while." ”
Chen Nong hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Mrs. don't be busy, I'm here to bring the carpenter to meet the girl." ”
Seeing that they had something to do, Zhao didn't delay any longer, and hurriedly shouted at the kitchen: "Jiu'er, Chen Nong is back and has something to look for you." ”
As soon as she heard Zhao call her, Lin Jiu hurriedly added a handful of firewood to the stove to keep the bone broth in the pot boiling, and then walked out of the kitchen.
Seeing that Chen Nong had brought another person, he asked, "Who is this?" ”
Chen Nong hurriedly replied: "This is the carpenter I found for the girl, he looked at the drawings you drew and said that he could do it, but he wanted to talk to the girl, so I brought him over." ”
Lin Jiu naturally knew that what he painted was difficult for people in this era to accept, so he was not surprised, so he showed the two of them a seat, and then chatted with the carpenter.
Carpenter Zhang also guessed in his heart who would make this drawing, but he didn't expect it to be a little girl, so he couldn't help but be even more surprised, and hurriedly asked, "I don't know what the table on this drawing is made of." ”
Seeing that he asked so directly, Lin Jiu didn't answer directly, but said with a smile: "If Master Zhang is really curious, you can stay for dinner for a while, and I will show you how this table is used." ”
Originally, Carpenter Zhang was embarrassed, but he was too curious and eager to know the use of this table, so he blushed and nodded: "Then trouble the girl." ”
Lin Jiu waved his hand and said, "What's so troublesome about this?" It just so happens that you can also give me suggestions after eating, I want to put this dish in the restaurant to make a signature dish. After speaking, she turned her head to look at Chen Nong again, "You can also stay with you, and I'll make some good ones to bring later, and you can bring them back to your aunt after you finish eating." ”
After that, Lin Jiu asked Carpenter Zhang and Chen Nong about their preferences and taboos, so he left Chen Nong to let him talk to Carpenter Zhang, and he went into the kitchen again.
She just put bone broth in the pot to cook, and on the other stove is the newly researched hot pot dipping sauce, which is also convenient at this time, directly add the hot pot base to the small pot, and then pour bone broth into it to fill up.
Then they set up the table they used to eat hot pot in the courtyard, set up a simple shelf under the table, took a broken pot and filled it with red-hot charcoal and put it on the shelf, and then brought a small pot full of bone broth.
The bone broth in the pot was originally boiling, and it would be on the fire, so the water kept rolling, and Lin Jiu prepared some slices of meat and vegetables and brought them to the table, as well as the most indispensable hot pot dipping sauce she had just made.
After preparing these, he called Carpenter Zhang and Chen Nong over for dinner.
Carpenter Zhang had never seen such a dish before, he sat down with a blank face, looked at Chen Nong next to him in the same state, and then raised his eyes to look at Lin Jiu: "Dare to ask the girl, although this soup is steaming, but this meat and vegetables are still raw, how to eat it." ”
Zheng Jiadong, who had just sat down on the side, burst out laughing, and Mrs. Zheng frowned and scolded: "Jiadong, don't be rude." ”
Zheng Jiadong hurriedly restrained the smile on his face, bowed his head and apologized to Carpenter Zhang: "I'm sorry uncle, I didn't mean to laugh at you just now, this hot pot was researched by Sister Lin, and we didn't know how to eat it before, I'll teach you." ”
Carpenter Zhang is not a person with a small belly and chicken intestines, so he naturally does not care about children, and when he saw him showing himself how to eat hot pot, he learned it seriously, and so did Chen Nong on the side.
After watching Zheng Jiadong's demonstration, Carpenter Zhang and Chen Nong also did the same, picked up a piece of meat, soaked it in the hot pot, waited until the meat slice was ripe, and then dipped it in Lin Jiu's homemade sauce, as soon as it was put into their mouths, Zhang Carpenter and Chen Nong's eyes widened in shock.
Regardless of the heat. Hot, swallowed the meat slices into his stomach after chewing a few bites, Zhang Carpenter raised his eyes and looked at Lin Jiu: "The girl is like a second cook, she can make such a delicious dish, with this dish, the restaurant you opened will definitely be able to do prosperous business." ”
Lin Jiu smiled: "Then thank Master Zhang for his auspicious words, now does Master Zhang have any questions about my drawings?" ”
"No, no, when I go back, I will make an identical table for the girl."
In this way, Lin Jiu can be regarded as having achieved his goal.
Because she knew that her table and chair were time-consuming and laborious to make, Lin Jiu paid Zhang Carpenter a lot of wages.
However, although Carpenter Zhang is a money-loving person, he was very happy for the first time to be a man with drawings, and he didn't want to ask for such a high salary for anything, but he couldn't stand Lin Jiu's insistence, so he accepted: "I must live up to the girl's trust." ”
In addition to the table, Lin Jiu also handed over the work of making the screen to Carpenter Zhang.
Carpenter Zhang was naturally willing, but this furniture took a lot of work to make, so even if he tried his best, it took a lot of time.
