"Derpy!"

As soon as he entered the back kitchen of Qin Tower, Ivan heard Dong Xiaowan's excited shout.

He found that the system was pulling himself into the copy earlier and earlier, for example, today, when he entered the kitchen, Dong Xiaowan began to take Tie Niu and Xiaocui to steam the buns served for breakfast today.

But that's exactly what he wanted.

Because he realized his shortcomings, he needed to improve himself in all aspects of cooking knowledge, basic skills, and practice, which required a lot of time, so he had to make full use of twice the time flow after entering the dungeon.

If he didn't have to go to work, he would have liked to stay in the copy every day.

He immediately walked over to Dong Xiaowan and asked, "How much did you do this morning?"

"Thirty cages of soup dumplings, ten cages of crystal packets. There weren't many customers in the morning, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to sell out if I did too much. ”

Dong Xiaowan replied with a soft smile.

In Qin Lou, the main people who order breakfast are the ladies in the building and the guests who stay overnight, compared with the evening, the demand is indeed much less, so Dong Xiaowan does not dare to do more.

Of course, even if she made these forty steamed buns, she and Xiaocui and Tie Niu were busy for a long time.

"Well, less is less, and it can guarantee the amount at night. ”

Ivan did the math.

If the current situation is stable, he can earn more than fifty taels in one night, and nearly twenty taels in the morning, so that in less than a month, Dong Xiaowan can not only earn enough silver to pay off debts, but also have some surplus.

In this way, he has a great chance of persuading Dong Xiaowan to leave Qin Lou, and his task of saving the celebrity chef will also be able to achieve a breakthrough.

"You guys are busy first, I'll go to the yard and chop firewood for a while. ”

Ivan turned and walked into the courtyard.

For him, he needs to arrange his time reasonably now to ensure the progress of his task, so in the case of Dong Xiaowan and the others, there is no need for him to participate in some things.

His move made Dong Xiaowan sigh again.

She found that Ivan is really serious, persistent, and pursues perfection in doing things, whether it is trial production of new products, killing fish, or practicing knife work.

In this regard, she felt inferior to him.

After thinking about it, she handed over the steamed buns to Tie Niu and Xiao Cui, turned around and followed them to the courtyard.

"Derpy, why are you so obsessed with cooking?"

Ivan, who was picking up an axe and preparing to start chopping wood, was stunned for a moment.

His heart moved, and he thought, since this little girl talked about this topic, should he take the opportunity to brainwash her?

This can be there!

Since the system has given him the task of saving the celebrity chef, it is necessary to make the little girl enjoy cooking more.

After thinking about it, he spoke.

"Let me ask you, do you feel particularly happy and happy the moment you eat the delicious food?"

Dong Xiaowan nodded.

"This is the charm of cooking, the best food, just like the beautiful poetry and beautiful rhythm, can bring people joy and pleasure. Therefore, in the West, top chefs are regarded as artists and are very respected. ”

Ivan begins his brainwashing process.

He said that, of course, for a reason.

There is a sentence in the "Liang Hui Wang Chapter and Sentences" in "Mencius": "...... A gentleman cannot bear to see the death of an animal when he sees it, and he cannot bear to eat its flesh when he hears its voice. It is a gentleman who cooks far away. ”

The original meaning of this sentence refers to the fact that when a gentleman sees a living beast, he cannot bear to see it die, and when he hears its voice, he cannot bear to eat its meat, so the gentleman should stay away from the place where the beast is slaughtered.

But as time passed, this sentence was taken out of context, and only the words "gentleman is far away from cooking" were well-known to everyone, and slowly, chefs were regarded as an inferior profession.

This was especially true in ancient times.

Therefore, if Ivan wants Dong Xiaowan to really like cooking and put energy into it, he must first make her believe that this is indeed an art.

"Really?" Dong Xiaowan asked with wide eyes.

Sure enough, she was surprised by Ivan's statement.

"Of course, in the West, even high-ranking officials and aristocrats have to be respectful in front of top chefs to be able to eat the delicious food made by the master himself. ”

These words immediately aroused Dong Xiaowan's yearning.

In Qinlou, although she is a red ling, although there are so many high-ranking officials and nobles vying to see her, she knows that in the eyes of those people, she is actually an inferior female play, a plaything used to play with blasphemy.

If it weren't for her insistence on selling her art and not selling her body, so that she still gained a little respect, maybe those people would have torn off their disguises a long time ago.

Therefore, she actually yearns to be respected in her heart.

"The West is so good!" Dong Xiaowan sighed.

If it weren't for being implicated by her family background, she really wanted to go to the West to open her eyes like Ivan.

She immediately added: "It's a pity that our Daming is not Western." ”

Ivan: "......"

What does this mean?

You don't want me to take you to the West, do you?

He had to doubt that.

Because in Dong Xiaowan's information, this little girl's favorite thing is to play in the mountains and rivers, even in the Qinglou, she often accompanies some guests to run out often, and it is many days when she goes out.

In this era, he couldn't really take her to the West.

Then quickly change the subject.

"What about Daming? In any profession, as long as you look up to yourself, as long as you can make this profession the top, as long as you can support yourself, you don't need to look at other people's faces! When you meet those who don't respect you, you can completely turn them away, so that respect will naturally come slowly. ”

Dong Xiaowan was immediately shocked when she heard it.

There is no doubt that because she looks down on her current profession in her heart, she is now inferior, even if she pretends to be calm in front of guests.

She didn't think the profession of a chef was noble, but she didn't see any humility in Ivan, and she was very confident in her words.

If you want to be respected, you must first look up to yourself!

She remembered the core meaning of Ivan's words.

"Derpy, do you mean to let me stick to it in the Qin Tower?"

Ivan: "......"

Wow, what's your head?

This comprehension ability......

He couldn't help but shake his head.

Then go ahead and wash!

Wash it up!

"It's not that I look down on the woman in Qinlou, but there is a difference between earning money with my body and earning money by my ability, and if I want to earn money with my body to win the respect of others, it is basically impossible. ”

"And you, even if you insist on selling your art now, what will happen after a long time? What if you meet high-ranking officials and powerful people that you can't resist? Can you still keep your innocence?"

Dong Xiaowan was immediately stunned.

Ivan's words were so straightforward that they directly crushed her luck mentality.

Yes, I insist on selling my art and not selling my body, how long can I last like this?

Can you really make a green lotus that comes out of the mud forever without staining?

My name is Qinglian!

She couldn't help but feel sad, and asked faintly, "Then what should I do?"
