Chapter 14: This plot is not right
After counting what ingredients were there, combined with the hometown characteristics of the dining leader, Li Ye quickly decided what dishes to cook.
The first dish is braised lion's head, and Li Ye asked MCA to be responsible for chopping up the fat and thin meat, shiitake mushrooms and other ingredients.
This kind of work that does not have much technical content can be handed over to MCA to help deal with.
MCA's whole person became excited, although he is now doing some very simple and marginal work, but this is a small stove for the leader, and the meaning is different.
He was an apprentice at He Yuzhu, and he had something to do when he was cooking a big pot of dishes.
opened a small stove for the leader, and guarded him everywhere, for fear that he would learn the essence of Tan's cuisine.
Li Ye is completely different, he is completely undefended.
Li Ye not only guarded him, after he finished simple tasks such as washing vegetables and chopping meat foam, Li Ye asked him to stand aside and watch carefully.
What is the significance of a certain step in making a certain dish, and why it must be done, these details are all told to him.
MCA has benefited a lot, and there is a feeling of empowerment, and many doubts that were half-understood before can be answered here by Li Ye.
Ma Hua studied carefully on the side, and when the dishes came out, he was responsible for serving the dishes to the leaders who ate in the reception room of the canteen.
"Here comes the braised lion's head."
Ma Hua served two dishes to the leaders with steaming braised lion's head and steamed Wuchong fish.
"Leader Liu, Director Zhang, let's go, the dishes in the back will come up one after another, let's talk while eating."
As the host, Director Yang beckoned everyone to move.
Xu Damao, who had just finished the movie, had the opportunity to have two drinks with the leaders at the table.
In fact, he is a tool man, and he is eloquent and good at sycophancy, so Director Yang and Li Changming asked him to accompany the wine.
When leaders and other factory directors come to visit, they must make people drink to their heart's content.
If Director Yang and Li Changming toast with their lives, it is not appropriate, in case they get drunk and do something ridiculous, it will be too embarrassing?
They are people with status, and they want to save face.
Accompany the leader to drink, and leave the work to Xu Damao, a tool man.
Xu Damao's performance did not disappoint Director Yang and Li Changming, I saw him pick up a bottle of wine, skillfully unscrew the lid, and pour wine into the leader's cup, while extremely flattering: "I can drink at the same table with the leaders today, I Xu Damao is fortunate to have three lives, and it is a blessing that I have cultivated in my last life."
I Xu Damao toasted and paid attention to the rules. One large, three small, twenty-five ten.
What is leadership in my case? Leadership is the sky!
The leader has one drink, and I have to drink three cups for the small one. ”
Xu Damao usually shows movies to people, and he needs to explain them in the process of showing movies, and convey the main theme of the movie and the correct values expressed to the audience.
Several years of career as a film projectionist have allowed Xu Damao to practice a good eloquence, and this sycophant has really captured the hearts of the leaders.
The leaders were very happy, Xu Damao's goal was achieved, and they helped Director Yang and Li Changming share the firepower.
Next, most of the wine was toasted by him, and he was responsible for accompanying the leader to have a drink.
Leader Liu is a native of Suzhou and Hangzhou, and the braised lion's head in the first two dishes is quite to his liking, which is a famous dish in his hometown.
Leader Liu sandwiched a small piece of meat from the lion's head and stuffed it into his mouth, the entrance was soft, fat but not greasy, and it was unusually tender, which made people linger after eating.
"Lao Yang, have you changed chefs? It doesn't taste the same as before. ”
Leader Liu pointed to the fragrant and delicious braised lion's head with chopsticks, and asked curiously.
Director Yang was stunned, he was not a roundworm in the stomach of Leader Liu, and he couldn't always figure out Leader Liu's thoughts, he thought that Leader Liu was dissatisfied with this meal.
Director Yang couldn't help but be a little annoyed, he repeatedly resigned five orders, and named He Yuzhu to personally cook and open a small stove to entertain the leaders, how did he change the chef? Leader Liu tasted it differently.
The leader is not satisfied, whose pot is it?
"Oh, leader, you said this, I changed it.
Recently, there was a sixth-level cook in our factory, and I was thinking about asking him to show his hand and bring some different flavors to everyone.
How? Leader: Are you not satisfied with today's meal?
Anyway! I instructed the new chef and the previous chef to take charge of a few dishes, and just change them back. ”
Li Changming is an old man, and he is very skillful in what he said.
First of all, he raised the level of Li Ye's eighth-level cook.
Because I have to take into account the identity of Leader Liu, it is a bit disrespectful to change to a new eighth-level cook, and it will be fine to raise the eighth level to the sixth level.
Because the sixth-level cooker is the highest rank in the factory.
Li Changming's implication is that he asked a highest-level new chef in the factory to specially arrange some new dishes for Leader Liu, in order to let Leader Liu try it, right?
Later, it was mentioned that He Yuzhu, the old chef who used to open a small stove, was also there, and if Leader Liu didn't like the food cooked by this new chef, he would just change it back.
Li Changming's answer to Leader Liu can be described as watertight.
Leader Liu took a small piece of meat from the lion's head and said with great satisfaction: "This new chef is very good, and he has real skills."
This braised lion's head is a famous dish of Huaiyang cuisine. To be honest, I haven't eaten such authentic Huaiyang cuisine for many years since I came to the capital.
This braised lion's head is more authentic than the best lion head I've ever eaten in Suzhou and Hangzhou. Lao Li, this new chef you changed to is very good. ”
Director Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
It turned out that Leader Liu was not dissatisfied with the food, but was too satisfied with the food.
Li Changming's mind was racing, and he immediately called a young man in, and said to this young man: "Just let Li Ye be in charge of today's dishes, let He Yuzhu rest." ”
"Huh! Lao Li, you are ......"
How smart a person Liu was, he immediately understood what Li Changming meant, and knew that Li Changming wanted to arrange a table of hometown dishes for him, but he had to deliberately pretend to it.
finally tasted such authentic hometown dishes, and Leader Liu naturally thought that the rest of the dishes would be made by this new chef, all of which would be Huaiyang cuisine.
But it was not appropriate for it to come out of his mouth.
The people at this table are from all over the world, and he is the biggest, yes, but he can't be so selfish, at least he can't show his selfishness.
"Leader, aren't you satisfied with the new chef's cooking! So I thought, why don't you let this new chef take care of today's dishes?
The old chef went back and forth to that little style, and he ate almost everything, so today he will try something different. ”
Li Changming is very good at talking.
"Hey! Since Lao Li said so, then I'll listen to you. Today, you and Director Yang are the masters, we are just guests, and the guests follow the meaning of the master. ”
Leader Liu laughed heartily and was quite satisfied with what Li Changming had done.
……
In the kitchen, He Yuzhu, who was shouting to go to the toilet before, came back slowly.
He pinched the time to come back.
At this point, the appetizer arranged by Li Ye has been served, and he came back for the finale.
He showed his hand, did a trick on the whole day, ensured that the leader was satisfied, and completely suppressed Li Ye's limelight, and he would have to find him in the future to open a small stove.
"Master He, you are back, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
When the young man saw He Yuzhu coming back, he immediately greeted him.
He Yuzhu slowly picked up the enamel cup and took a sip of tea, not in a hurry at all.
What do you think? He said that Li Ye was too young, and the water in the small stove was too deep, and the young man couldn't grasp it.
Li Changming's people were waiting for him in the kitchen, it must be that Li Ye's food leader was not satisfied, and he had to go out at a critical moment.
"Okay, I'll start work right away, I just had an upset stomach and went to the bathroom. You go back, the dishes will be served soon. ”
As he spoke, He Yuzhu put on his apron and prepared to get to work.
The young man hesitated, paused, and said, "Master He, you misunderstood, Deputy Director Li asked me to inform you, you just have to rest today, and Li Ye has all the dishes in the back." ”
"What?"
He Yuzhu's eyes were as big as copper bells.
This plot is not right, why is it different from what he imagined?
