Out of the Qin Mansion, Hua Qingyan also breathed a sigh of relief, looked back at the gate of the Qin Mansion, and couldn't help sighing, she really didn't like intrigue, it was to this extent, it made her feel so tired.

Fortunately, after this incident, the Han family has one more enemy, and the Qin family will no longer stumble on Yun Shumo, no matter what, their Qin family will accept her love for sending medicine today.

Hua Qingyan smiled, obviously in a very good mood.

Hu Baizhi is also very happy, the Qin family gave a lot of consultation fees, a full fifty taels! Hu Baizhi thinks she is a cheesy person, and when she sees these fifty taels, she is willing to treat these nobles every day! Don't make money too fast! And she is not stupid, Hua Qingyan can bring her to show her trust, this is also to show the Qin family the attitude of the Marquis of Zhongyong, this is to give them Baicaotang, increase the bargaining chips for the Hu family, and set up a backstage for them.

"Hey, hey, hey."

Hearing Hu Baizhi's laughter, Hua Qingyan turned her head and saw that this girl was holding a silver ingot and smiling stupidly, and her eyes were about to turn into silver ingots.

"So happy?"

"Aren't you happy when you make money?" Hu Baizhi asked rhetorically.

Hua Qingyan thought about it, and she was indeed very happy, but Hu Baizhi's girl was too easy to satisfy, and just these fifty taels made her so happy that she couldn't find the north.

Hua Qingyan took the happy Hu Baizhi to the new shop in the east of the city, which I didn't know, and I found that the shop is too much worse than when I just bought it, the whole shop has been decorated, the rows of counters are neatly arranged, wiped clean, and there is a row of small bamboo slips hanging behind the main counter, on which are written the names and prices of various dim sum.

As soon as Hua Qingyan stepped into the shop, Qi Yu walked in from the backyard, and happened to be right: "The county lord is here, are you still satisfied?" ”

"How can I be dissatisfied with what Qi Gongzi does." Hua Qingyan asked Qi Yu to take her to the kitchen again. The wing room in the backyard has been replanned, separated by a large kitchen and a large warehouse, and a room has been rebuilt on the vacant land, which is a place for the cook master and the second child who usually stay in the shop to rest. Although it is a chase shop, the lighting and warmth are very good. Of course, this room is just a temporary lounge, and Hua Qingyan will prepare another place for her cook, Xiao Er, to live.

After visiting, Hua Qingyan did not pick out any dissatisfaction. Now that everything is ready, all that is left is the cook.

However, on the second day, Yun Zixi brought five cooks, and they were all young men, listening to Yun Zixi talk about the people of the imperial chef in the palace. This group of people doesn't pay much attention to the red case on weekdays, so they like to make some snacks for the white case, which is not reused at home. I heard that the county lord's dim sum shop was going to recruit people, so I told my parents that I wanted to go to the county lord as an apprentice. The elders in the family felt that this was also a way out, so they begged Yun Zixi's head.

The cook is such a big thing, Yun Zixi naturally can't make his own decisions, and on the second day, he took five teenagers to find Hua Qingyan, the big owner.

Hua Qingyan has no prejudice against these five little teenagers, and she will not feel that they are not her own people, so there is an extra layer of estrangement and distrust of them. She thinks it's better to have a foundation, and it's easier to teach. Of course, what Hua Qingyan wants to know more is their creativity, after all, what she can teach is limited, and if the shop wants to be prosperous, it has to innovate!

Therefore, Hua Qingyan did not immediately agree to accept them, but said: "It's not impossible for you to stay if you want to, but I need to know your ability first." You already know how to make dim sum, right? ”

Facing Hua Qingyan, the county lord, the five teenagers were still a little trembling, but they were not stupid, and when they heard Hua Qingyan ask, they understood, Hua Qingyan was afraid that they would be a little nervous. They have heard of Hua Qingyan's name, and they have also tasted the dishes of Guanlanju, so they naturally know Hua Qingyan's craftsmanship very well, that is what they need and admire, and they feel that they will not be able to catch up in their lifetime, and now they want to show their clumsy craftsmanship in front of Hua Qingyan, it is really ashamed to think about it.

But even if they are ashamed, in order to be recognized by the county lord, they must also accept this test.

The five teenagers glanced at each other and nodded heavily, their cautious and frightened appearance made Hua Qingyan have the illusion that he was bullying them.

Hua Qingyan really didn't want to embarrass them, just asked them to make their best dim sum, and then used the limited three ingredients she provided on the board to use their imagination to create an ingredient. Of course, this time is also limited, and throughout the afternoon, if the final thing can't be eaten, then Hua Qingyan can only say sorry.

Because Hua Qingyan didn't say anything about leaving them all, the five little teenagers did their best in the kitchen, and they even made their best snacks beyond the level of practicing at home on weekdays. Although the five kinds of dim sum are roughly the same, they are also remarkable, Hua Qingyan did not find faults, but let them start to create their own dim sum.

While the little boys breathed a sigh of relief, they felt extremely embarrassed. There are only three ingredients on the board, and the simplest flour, eggs, and red beans are still on the board. This improvisation was so difficult for them that they didn't know how to start.

But they don't want to give up, after all, this is their opportunity!

But Hua Qingyan didn't seem to know their difficulties, and actually said with a smile: "When you finish it, you will take it to this market and invite passing customers to try it, if they agree with your craftsmanship, then you can stay." ”

Now it's not just the five teenagers, even Yun Zixi feels pressured, after all, these five teenagers can only be regarded as apprentices, she agreed with the imperial chefs to bring people, also because they would definitely enter Hua Qingyan's training before taking up their posts, but Hua Qingyan is now letting them make a new dim sum alone, which is simply embarrassing!

Yun Zixi pulled Hua Qingyan aside and asked in a low voice, "Qingyan, isn't this too harsh?" They're still apprentices. ”

Hua Qingyan shook her head and said: "I don't want to see how good they are, I just want to see if they can innovate, after all, there are always only fixed dim sum in the shop, and I can't always rely on me to make new dim sum." Everyone has their own different tastes and ideas, maybe they will do better than me? ”

"But ......" Although she felt that what Hua Qingyan said made sense, Yun Zixi still felt that it was too strict, and she was a little worried that these teenagers would not be able to do it at all.

Hua Qingyan patted her shoulder and comforted: "Don't worry, this person's potential can be stimulated by pressure, if you can't do it, it can only be said that you can't do it." What else can he achieve by imitation, in that case, I advise him to give up earlier. ”

Hua Qingyan's voice is not small, and this kitchen is not very big, so naturally everyone hears it. The five young men glanced at each other, but at this moment they made up their minds. Just like Hua Qingyan said, if they can't do it, it proves that they have no talent, so it's good to recognize themselves early! However, they have to prove it to the county lord now, they can!

The five little teenagers suddenly cheered each other loudly, and energetically picked up their own ingredients and began to ponder. Looking at their busy figures, Hua Qingyan also smiled, these people are not so much teenagers as children, all of them are only teenagers, and the oldest is only fifteen years old. Their faces are still immature, although there is persistence and tenacity, but in fact, they are more proud.

Because they were born different, there are people in the family who are imperial chefs, and they are exposed to the best ingredients and dishes every day, so they think that they are superior to others in cooking or cooking.

Hua Qingyan didn't feel that this kind of pride was unacceptable, just like she was also proud of her birth in the Marshal's Mansion, but this pride sometimes became an obstacle to their progress. Because they were born in such a family, when they learned to cook or make snacks, they would subconsciously imitate it, because they thought it was the best, as long as they could make exactly the same thing, then they would succeed and become a teacher.

But everyone's tastes are different, preferences are different, and one dish will not be liked by everyone. At this time, innovation is needed. Only by pushing through the old and bringing forth the new can it be a long-term way, and it can be regarded as real progress.

These are all taught to her by Hua Qingyan's grandfather in her previous life, and her grandfather always likes those ingredients for her, and lets her combine them at will to make things in her imagination, and present the taste she wants in the ingredients in her hands little by little. And Hua Qingyan was not very talented from the beginning, and at the beginning, she often made dark dishes, many of which could not even be eaten. But fortunately, Hua Qingyan's talent is still good, and after mastering the characteristics of the ingredients, she can also put the whimsical ideas in her mind into practice.

Yun Shumo happened to hear Hua Qingyan's words when he came over, but he smiled after being stunned. The truth that Hua Qingyan said, Yun Shumo understands, it can be used here, and it can also be used in national affairs. If Daqi wants to become completely strong, he can't rely on those experiences that have been passed down, but he must boldly open up!

Yun Shumo walked up to Hua Qingyan and patted her head gently.

Hua Qingyan looked up and saw that he also smiled: "Why are you here?" ”

"Come and see you," Yun Shumo said, standing behind Hua Qingyan without planning to leave, holding her shoulder with one hand, "Will there be a mouth for a while?" ”

Hua Qingyan sneered: "I'm afraid there is no mouth blessing, look at the things in their hands, do you still have an appetite?" ”

Yun Shumo looked at Hua Qingyan's line of sight, and the originally white flour in the little boy's hand had turned into an indescribable color. Even after looking at it, Yun Shumo really had no appetite, but he didn't want to hit people, so he said: "Maybe it's just that the color is ugly, but the taste is good." ”

"But the appearance of the snack is also very important."

"......" Yun Shumo was speechless.
