Chapter 345: The Old Man of the Restaurant

The little two who led the way are also old acquaintances of Cheng Xi and Xu Sanlang, but now they have different identities and statuses, and they are no longer as comfortable getting along as before.

When Xu Sanlang and Cheng Xi followed them to the private room, it was as Xu Wenyu said, everything was ready, and not long after sitting down, Xiao Er began to serve food one after another, and the meals were sumptuous, most of them were the signature dishes of Ruyi Restaurant.

Cheng Xi looked at the dishes on this table, and said with emotion, "It seems that this Xu Wenyu is very fast, and I don't know how this person knew that we would come to Ruyi Restaurant?" Could it be that we have Xu Wenyu around us? ”

Everyone felt that something was wrong when they heard Cheng Xi's words, Xu Sanlang also frowned slightly, and Ah Yi had already spoken, "How can there be Xu Wenyu's people around us?" Our subordinates can guarantee that they will never have anything to do with Xu Wenyu. ”

Xu Sanlang answered, "That's the people in Brother Yu's house, let's talk about the Ruyi Restaurant, only the people in Brother Yu's house know so quickly, I didn't expect Xu Wenyu to actually stretch his hand to Brother Yu's house, this hand is really long enough." ”

Cheng Xi responded, "It seems that Yu Zhaocai has to clean up the subordinates in his house before he can do it." ”

Xu Saburo nodded approvingly.

The meals were almost ready, but everyone was not in a hurry to move the chopsticks, but waited for Steward Xu and Chef Zhao to come over.

Cheng Xi looked at the food on the table and was a little hungry, mainly on the way, but he couldn't eat such a hearty meal, so he kept looking at the door.

Xu Saburo looked funny, so he urged, "If you're hungry, eat first." ”

Cheng Xi refused, "No, I have to wait for Steward Xu and my master to come over." ”

She came here to ask for help, but she couldn't be so insincere, she ate it first before people came.

Xu Sanlang saw Cheng Xi's insistence like that, and he was very helpless, so he had to let her.

Fortunately, Steward Xu and Chef Zhao came over soon, and as soon as the two of them came in, they looked at the table and the food on the table did not move, and several people sitting at the table looked at them in unison, but they were a little uncomfortable.

Before he had time to say hello, Chef Zhao asked with a little embarrassment, "Why didn't everyone move their chopsticks, could it be that there is something wrong with today's meal?" ”

Cheng Xi replied with a smile, "How come?" We're waiting for you to come over, Uncle Xu, master, come and sit down. ”

Steward Xu heard Cheng Xi's words, so he followed Chef Zhao to sit down on the vacant seat and said, "Why are you waiting for us?" Really, what to do with you starving? Let's move the chopsticks. ”

When Steward Xu and Chef Zhao sat down, everyone moved their chopsticks, chatting while eating, chatting about their respective situations during this time.

Cheng Xin no longer wears a veil now, of course, Steward Xu and Chef Zhao saw a face that resembled Cheng Xi by seven or eight points, and they were also curious to ask, I heard that it was Cheng Xi's lost sister, and now she and Ah Yi have married, congratulations again.

Because Cheng Xi and Xu Saburo were most familiar with Chef Zhao when they were in Ruyi Restaurant, even if their identities have changed, Chef Xu and Chef Zhao are not as unfamiliar as others, they are still as warm as before, and the atmosphere is unusually good.

When the conversation was almost over, and the eating and drinking were almost over, Cheng Xi mentioned his business, "Uncle Xu and the master, do you still remember what Xi'er said?" Later, Xi'er opened a restaurant, so she invited Uncle Xu and the master to come over. ”

Steward Xu looked at Cheng Xi with interest, "You mentioned it to us last time, what's the matter?" Is this restaurant open? We promised you a long time ago, if it really started, we would definitely not break our promise. ”

Cheng Xi scratched his head with a smile and responded, "Ah, did I tell you?" Look at my memory. ”

Immediately, Cheng Xi continued to introduce the situation of the restaurant now, "It's not so easy to open, but it's already starting to be opened, on Huai'an's side, but the kitchen matter, I'm afraid it's going to trouble you." ”

Chef Zhao said with a little surprise, "Huh? Is this going to Huai'an? ”

Cheng Xi smiled embarrassedly and replied, "At first, I was afraid that the two of you would have to go over for a trip, and when we are on the right track over there, let's open a store in Anyang County, and it is convenient for you to be here." ”

Steward Xu heard Cheng Xi's words, so he asked, "It seems that Xi'er has her own plan, why don't you tell us about it?" ”

Cheng Xi responded, "Originally, when opening a restaurant, the chef was a very critical point, although it is not impossible to find it outside, but I am not very relieved, I still think that the master's cooking skills are the best, and the kitchen affairs are still more trusting to the master and Uncle Xu, so this matter can only trouble you two." ”

Chef Zhao, who was praised for his good cooking skills, heard Cheng Xi's words, so he said, "You girl, your mouth is very sweet, but when it comes to cooking, the master can't compare to you, just your little head melon seeds, strange dishes emerge in endlessly, and my master can't think of it." ”

Cheng Xi smiled and said, "Isn't this a good teacher to teach?" This is called a famous teacher and a high apprentice. ”

After praising the master and praising himself by the way, Cheng Xi continued to talk about business, "Actually, we already have ready-made restaurants in this restaurant, and it is still a chain that exists everywhere, and it is my sister's industry, but because I haven't taken care of it well for many years, it has basically collapsed, and it seems to be a little famous before, called Drunk Qingfeng, I don't know if Uncle Xu has heard of it with the master?" ”

Steward Xu responded, "Drunk breeze? The smash hit drunken breeze restaurant back then? Is it your property? ”

Cheng Xi responded with a smile, "It should be the drunken breeze, the property was bought by my sister later, so I thought about reforming the restaurant and then opening the drunken breeze." ”

Steward Xu asked, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

Cheng Xi responded, "If you want the restaurant to become popular, of course, you need to be attractive enough to innovate, Huai'an City is the first place we experimented, I have arranged for the people over there to decorate according to my requirements, and when it is ready, I plan to open it first, so when the time comes, I still have to ask Uncle Xu to go over with the master, Zhang Luo's kitchen Li matter, when the time comes, arrange a few more apprentices, the master will pick out the teaching, and wait until you come back." ”

Chef Zhao frowned slightly when he heard this, and said with some unease, "Is this just recruiting apprentices, what if you go to another restaurant after learning the craft?" ”

It is said that the apprentices of the church starved to death of the master, and most craftsmen in this era are unwilling to accept apprentices casually, even if they accept apprentices, they must charge enough apprenticeship fees before they are willing to pass on their skills to apprentices, and Chef Zhao also has this concern.

Cheng Xi had already thought of this problem, and said, "Master rest assured, all the cooks and cooks, I plan to go directly to the tooth shop to find it, I have a deed of sale in hand, and I am afraid that people will not be able to run away." ”

Chef Zhao heard Cheng Xi's words, but he was relieved, but he said again, "How much money does this cost, you are willing to do it." ”

Cheng Xi responded with a smile, "In order to save this bit of silver, if someone steals the craft and goes out to fight against us, it will be too much." ”

Chef Zhao responded, "That's right." ”

Cheng Xi opened his mouth and continued, "Huai'an, at the beginning, I still have to trouble the master to run with Uncle Xu, by the way, let's see how the effect is there, is there anything that needs to be improved, if it is on the right track, you two will still come back to this Anyang County, and you will be responsible for training restaurant cooks and sending them to other places." ”

Steward Xu nodded in agreement, "This is a good way, although we can't go to other places, but in the end, we are used to living in this Anyang County, and if we really want to move to other places, we are really not used to it." ”

Chef Zhao also nodded in agreement, "Well, that's a good idea." ”

At this time, Cheng Xi turned his head and said to Xu Sanlang, who had been silent on the side, "You take out the written recipe." ”

Xu Sanlang heard Cheng Xi's words, so he took out a few pieces of paper from his arms and put them in front of Steward Xu and Chef Zhao.

He followed Cheng Xi in the back kitchen of Ruyi Restaurant for so long, and he knew a little about various dishes, but some of the dishes that Cheng Xi dictated, Xu Sanlang felt very novel, thinking about Cheng Xi's cooking skills, and the occasional novelty dishes, the texture and taste, presumably these will not be too bad.

And there are also many strange dish names, Xu Sanlang also thinks it is very novel, and I don't know how Cheng Xi's little head came up with it.

Listening to the recipe, although Steward Xu was not in charge, but he had been a steward in the back kitchen of the restaurant for so many years, and he also had a thorough understanding of various dishes, so he took the lead in picking it up, opened the folded rice paper, and looked at it carefully.

The more I look at it, the more interesting it is, and for those practices that I have never seen before, I feel even more novel, and I even have an urge to pull Chef Zhao to the kitchen immediately to try it out.

However, this is Ruyi Restaurant, Steward Xu finally endured it, and handed over the recipe to Chef Zhao with a little excitement, and said, "Take a look." ”

Chef Zhao is also literate, and when he saw Steward Xu's expression, he picked up the recipe and began to look through it, the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, and asked, "Can this sweet potato still do this?" What does this taste like? ……”

Chef Zhao, who was looking and asking, seemed to be endlessly planning to keep looking and asking, but in the end, it was Manager Xu who stopped him and said, "You will know if you try it yourself in the future." ”

Chef Zhao didn't have the same delicate mind as Steward Xu, so he stood up and planned to go to the back kitchen, and couldn't wait to say, "I'll go to the kitchen and try it." ”

But he was grabbed by Steward Xu and said, "This is a new recipe that Xi'er made for the new restaurant, what are you doing now?" ”

Being reminded by Steward Xu like this, Chef Zhao's mind finally cleared up a little, and he remembered that they were still people from Ruyi Restaurant, so he dispelled his thoughts.
