In the afternoon of the same day, the small stove was bought a lot, Qin Wuran felt that it was very convenient to use, and she had to admire the craftsmanship of making things, at least this thing was unheard of in her opinion, and why the master thought of this, it really made her a little strange.

However, when Qin Wuran asked, the master in the shop just waved his hand, with a consistent smile on his honest face, "It's just that I went out to travel and saw some novelties in the early years, and I made some of them myself after I came back, and now I have improved them many times, and only big families like you will buy them." You must know that most people are very busy, and they definitely didn't buy a stove to heat it because a meal was cold, and this thing was not sold in my place for a long time, and now you have bought more. ”

Qin Wuran didn't say what she was doing when she got these stoves back, but she went back and tried them, and they were indeed very easy to use.

Now everything is ready.

Roughly estimated, I am afraid that there will inevitably be twenty people tonight, and it is impossible for Qin Wuran to cook the meals of those long-term workers together, so he instructed Zhang Ruanyang to go to the small kitchen to cook some by himself in the evening, and the latter naturally agreed, after all, they are here to work, not to let the master serve.

However, the taste of the two pots at noon still made people feel unstoppable, but Zhang Ruanyang still came over before leaving, and said with a rare shyness to Qin Wuran: "The two pots I ate at noon today are really the latest and most delicious things I have eaten for so many years, can the little boss teach me how to make them?" ”

She said with a little embarrassment.

Qin Wuran looked at her, and when she saw that the girl's eyes were clear, she knew that she must not have become some kind of misdemeanor to steal from school, so she agreed.

"Don't worry, I'm here to help, and I'll teach you what should be taught. It's just that you have to be faithful enough, and if you sell the craft I taught you to someone else, I won't follow it. ”

Whether to spread these foods is one thing, and being betrayed by his own family is another, because Qin Wuran has followed Mrs. Li to run Li Ji Restaurant since she was a child, and she also knows how to deter those who work for her own family, so even if she knew that Zhang Ruanyang didn't have that mind, she still informed her in advance.

After all, knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing hearts, who she is is not something that can be seen clearly at a glance, not to mention that even if she doesn't have this mind now, it may not change in the future.

It's better to make it clear from the beginning, although it's a little ugly, but it's absolutely indispensable.

Fortunately, Zhang Ruanyang is also a reasonable person, and he didn't feel anything wrong when he heard her words, so he quickly nodded.

"The little boss can rest assured, we have all signed the contract, if we expose the things of the master's family privately, wouldn't we be asking for a dead end? What's more, the craftsmanship of the little boss is so good, I will definitely be blessed in this shop in the future. ”

There was not so much restraint in talking between the two, and it also made Qin Wuran have some things because of this unfamiliar new environment, so she would be extra close to Zhang Ruanyang.

So she asked, "What are you going to do in the afternoon?" ”

Zhang Ruanyang obviously didn't expect the owner to ask him this, thought about it carefully, and then replied: "It's just to sort out the things to be used in the shop, and you have to learn the rules, in addition to some preparations before opening the store, these big bosses will tell us in a while, in fact, I don't know yet." ”

Qin Wuran nodded.

There is indeed a lot of preparation before opening the shop, she is busy here, and Shen Linzhou is not idle. I don't know if there will be anything inconsiderate about such a young master of a family ordering people to get up.

However, thinking that when he was just in his early tens, he followed his parents to start the family's business, Qin Wuran also felt that he couldn't worry about this kind of thing, Shen Linzhou must have understood better than her, so he didn't say anything anymore.

However, Zhang Ruanyang was about to leave, but Qin Wuran suddenly stopped her.

"You can help in the kitchen in the future, you don't have to prepare the ones outside, there are people in the kitchen on the left and right."

Hearing her say this, Zhang Ruanyang was naturally happy, after all, although he was a little tired in the kitchen, the work of entertaining guests outside was not easy, and it was very likely that he would encounter some difficult guests, and there was really no kitchen to make people quiet.

So Zhang Ruanyang hurriedly nodded in response, and then looked at her hand skillfully cutting the fish open, and asked, "Is there a place I can help now?" ”

Qin Wuran took the time to order the shrimp raised in the pond on the side, "You help me deal with that, remove the shell, and keep the meat inside." ”

Zhang Ruanyang responded very happily, then rolled up his sleeves and faced the pool of shrimp, picked up a three or two shrimps and peeled the shell, and put the crystal meat in the white porcelain plate on the side, and dismantled the small half plate in a short time.

Qin Yu was salted with fish here, and she saw Zhang Ruanyang's very skillful movements over there, and she was slightly surprised at that time.

"Look at you are so skilled, what did the family do before?"

Zhang Ruanyang smiled a little embarrassed, "I was embarrassed to tell the little boss before, in fact, my family used to make food, but it was just a small shop, which was not as good as our Shanhe restaurant." ”

Qin Wuran was really a little happy in her heart, "Then you have to work hard with me, maybe you can do a good job, and you can become the third-in-command in our shop." ”

There was a bit of a joke in these words, but Qin Wuran really had high hopes for Zhang Ruanyang, at least when everything was difficult at the beginning, it was inevitable to let her help, and Qin Wuran naturally wanted to let Shanhe Restaurant get on the right track as soon as possible.

But if you want to get on the right track as soon as possible, you must train a group of helpers who can help, Zhang Ruanyang will only be one of them, and then she has to recruit workers, and Qin Yuran must think in the long run.

Fortunately, when she was a child, she watched a lot of how Mrs. Li controlled the cooks at home, and even if she was in charge of a shop at this time, she would not be in a hurry.

What's more, although Shen Linzhou is not very old, he has thunderous means, and whether these people are loyal or not does not need to be taken care of by himself at all, Shen Linzhou will naturally distinguish it.

That's where it comes in.

Thinking of this, Qin Wuran felt a lot more relaxed, and the work in her hands also sped up a little.

According to Qin Wuran's previous experience, barbecue and hot pot are undoubtedly the most popular novelty foods, at least these two things make them full of praise, compared to other home-cooked stir-fries, a glance is enough to make people amazing, even if they eat it later, as long as they don't eat for several days in a row, they will definitely be unstoppable, so Qin Wuran decided on these two things in the evening.

It's just that the barbecue stove has to be kept outside, otherwise the smell will be very bad in the kitchen.

So Shen Linzhou thought about it, anyway, there is also a courtyard behind the Shanhe restaurant, so it is better to set up two tables there, and it will not be restricted by the lobby.

When Qin Wuran heard this, she couldn't help frowning slightly, and then said, "It's all the young lady of the family, will you not like such an unruly way of eating?" ”

Hearing this, Shen Linzhou couldn't help but think about his so-called friends from the family, even in the private room of the Shen family's restaurant, they didn't care about the etiquette on the table, and they didn't even fight after eating, so they waved their hands very indifferently.

"Don't expect too much from them, maybe when you meet them, you'll be the one who knows the rules best."

Qin Wuran listened to the clouds, but she also knew that the only thing that had been decided was to open two tables in the courtyard.

Fortunately, the ingredients for the evening were prepared in sufficient quantities, and everything that should be pickled was pickled, and I went to prepare those big dishes.

Vegetarian dishes do not need to be pickled, at this time, a bunch of bamboo skewers were placed next to it, and Qin Wuran began to teach Zhang Ruanyang how to string vegetarian dishes, although the other party learned quickly, but this fresh way of eating was obviously beyond her imagination, Qin Wuran demonstrated it, and her eyes widened slightly.

Seeing her like this, Qin Wuran couldn't help but feel a little funny, so she stretched out her hand and shook it in front of her eyes, and then said, "Don't hurry up yet?" If you continue to delay, I'll have to call someone else to come and help. ”

Where is Zhang Ruanyang willing? There were too many things here that she didn't expect, and she felt new for a while, and she also wanted to learn very much, so she immediately waved her hand again and again.

"I'm just so surprised, how can the little boss come up with so many good ideas? Our family used to run a food shop, and I really never thought of having such a way of eating. ”

Qin Wuran listened to her surprised question, and couldn't help but think of Old Lady Li.

"When my grandfather was young, he used to travel from north to south in order to collect the world's delicacies, and now what I do is just what he once saw, not what I thought of myself."

There are indeed different things in the four lakes, even in an imperial capital, there are complete differences between the main city and a small place like Yuanxi Town. So it is not an exaggeration to have this kind of food in other places, and Zhang Ruanyang is also convinced of this reason.

It's just that while she quickly skewered the vegetarian dishes in her hand, she inevitably remembered her former life.

"My father also said before that these foods of our Daqi are all the same, there is nothing new, it seems that there are only a few flavors when you eat them, and the difference is only in the ingredients themselves. Sometimes the flavor of the seasoning is so strong that it can even overshadow the flavor of the ingredients. For example, a plate of stir-fry, using pork and beef, obviously there should be a big difference, but with one method, the taste will be almost the same, at most the taste will change, which is not what we are pursuing. ”

But so what? Everyone does this, and gradually no one wants to look outside, after all, we used to live in a small place, you look at the side, learn a fresh food, others don't want to accept it, that's it. ”

Qin Wuran felt a little resonant when she heard this, but she was the one who was difficult to accept.

"I actually thought so before," Qin Wuran didn't hide it, and when she said this, there was a little smile on the corner of her lips, "At that time, my grandfather wanted to teach me all these skills, but I have always been reluctant to learn, and he can't, so I can only recruit apprentices by myself later, but I didn't expect that there was a white-eyed wolf in the family, and in the end I didn't do anything, and it is a pity to this day." ”

"So sometimes I wonder if my grandfather wouldn't have died if I had accepted my grandfather's expectations for me at that time."

When the topic came to this, it already had a bit of a heavy meaning, Zhang Ruanyang was not very good at comforting people, after all, she was here and had too little experience, but in the face of Qin Wuran, who suddenly lowered her mood, she was still slightly flustered, and then said that it was persuasion, but it was better to say what she thought in her heart.

"Our house was destroyed in a fire, my father and mother were burned to the ground, and in the end, all the money and property in the family were used for treatment, and no one was saved. Before leaving, my father said that the biggest regret in this life is that he didn't go outside, otherwise he would have seen a wider range of things, and maybe his own shop could also change. ”

"My mother laughed at him at the time, but now it's hard to protect himself, and the shop has burned down, it's good that he can survive, how dare he think about those things after his death. However, my father just sighed lightly, saying that he was a useless person, but he believed that there would always be such a group of people in Daqi, who would not insist on hundreds of years of old craftsmanship and change the business in the slightest. ”

Zhang Ruanyang had already finished skewering the mushrooms in his hand while speaking, and then stacked them very neatly aside, and picked up the green peppers.

"I didn't really understand why he said this at that time, after all, I was the same as my mother, I wanted him to live at that time, where did I care how Daqi developed? But now I think my father is also a powerful person, he said that one day Daqi will appear someone who will change the current situation, isn't this in front of my eyes. ”

She smiled with crooked eyes, which made her even more gentle, and the movements in Qin Wuran's hands paused slightly, and then she also smiled back.

"Then you have to help, maybe your father knows that you are the one who has changed the status quo of Daqi, and he must be very pleased."

Zhang Ruanyang then nodded.

In fact, they all know how difficult it is to change a country, and for people like them, it is almost difficult to reach the sky, but they still have to have wishes, and it is unknown whether it will come true one day.

The two of them just talked and laughed, and the work in their hands was not delayed at all, when Gao Jinli came in to deliver things, she saw them chattering endlessly, and she also smiled and quipped: "I am busy outside, and I don't dare to talk much, so one by one I am silent, which makes people feel a little uncomfortable, you are good, hiding here and whispering, it seems that it is still very leisurely." ”

Qin Wuran glanced at her, Gao Jinli is now dressed in clean clothes, and her hair is also in a bun, much better than the embarrassed appearance before, more like the gentle woman she saw before, so she also replied: "If Aunt Gao is bored outside, come to this kitchen to help, anyway, let's chat and talk, it won't be too boring." ”

Gao Jinli's current age is actually not very old, but compared to Qin Wuran, there is still a difference of more than ten years, plus she was the aunt of the Qin family before, this "Aunt Gao" shouting is not disobedient, and Gao Jinli is not surprised.

"Since you said that, then I'm just staying in the kitchen, after all, it's too quiet outside, and I'm not used to staying there."

Qin Wuran nodded, and then found her something to do, and the three of them finally continued to chat.

When the ingredients were almost ready, there were a lot of bowls, plates and baskets on the table, but they were also neat and tidy, so as not to make people feel in a hurry, so Qin Wuran asked the two of them to rest for a while, and then start stir-frying in the evening.

Otherwise, when people come and the dishes are cold, it will not be good.

The other two didn't have any objections, so they went out to stay for a while, and it didn't take long for Shen Linzhou's friends to come over one after another.
