Chapter 26 Staying in a five-star hotel and working in a steamed bun shop
"Yes, I'm the boss here."
Jiang Yu also felt that the atmosphere was a little weird, and couldn't help but glance at the other party more, and asked,
"You're looking for me? Can I help you? ”
"Ah, yes, yes! Something, something! ”
Lu Shuwu came back to his senses, quickly took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, nodded with a smile and said,
"Hello boss, my surname is Lu, my name is Lu Shuwu, I came to ask, is there still a shortage of people in our store?"
Seeing that the expression on Jiang Yu's face was a little hesitant, he hurriedly added,
"I can do a little bit of everything, and I can do it without pay, just take care of food and housing!"
Before Jiang Yu could speak, Hu Zhihai, who had been standing on the side and watching, couldn't help but ask:
"Tell me, what are you going to do?"
"I'll do it, that's a lot!"
Speaking of this, Lu Shuwu's face regained a little confidence, and he said with a smile,
"I can do all the work that a clerk can do, such as selling steamed buns and cashiers, and I can do chores such as washing steamers, washing dishes, mopping the floor, and wiping the table.
It's a little more complicated, like rolling noodles and making steamed buns, even if I am asked to stir-fry a few snacks, I am just as unambiguous. ”
"Yo, you're so good! Why don't you go to a big restaurant and run to such a small stall like ours? ”
I don't know if it's same-sex rejection, or what's the reason, Hu Zhihai saw Lu Shuwu's handsome and somewhat ruffian face, and he always felt a little unpleasant, and he couldn't help but feel a little prickly when he spoke.
"The reason why I came here is, of course, because the boss is a superb cook, and this is not something to be seen."
Lu Shuwu glanced at Hu Zhihai with a strange expression, and asked with a serious face,
"Can you make such delicious soup dumplings and hot and sour soup in a big restaurant?"
"This ......"
Hu Zhihai was choked all of a sudden, and his face turned red.
"You just said that you will roll noodles and make steamed buns?"
Seeing that the two seemed to be a little incompatible, of course Jiang Yu couldn't watch from the sidelines, so he quickly interjected and opened his mouth to open the topic,
"We really don't need a pastry chef in our store now, and we don't need to make anything else, just be able to make soup dumplings."
"There is no difference between the soup dumplings and the steamed buns, the only difference is that the noodles of the authentic soup dumplings are dead noodles, unlike the steamed buns, which need to be fermented."
Lu Shuwu nodded and said,
"When I was studying in college in the north, I once learned the method of filling soup dumplings from a teacher, and my level was quite passable."
There is a good saying that every real foodie actually has a chef living in his heart.
As a big foodie, Lu Shuwu not only likes food, but also likes to study the production method of food, and every time he encounters a food that makes his heart move, he will try to do it himself.
Over time, he has developed a good cooking skill.
In fact, the fundamental "contradiction" between him and his grandfather is not whether to learn to cook, but whether to be a cook.
Lu Shuwu's purpose in learning cooking is to hope that he can eat the food he wants anytime and anywhere, and he also enjoys the process of turning various ingredients into food, but he doesn't want to be a cook like his grandfather, trapped in the kitchen all his life, cooking for the sake of cooking.
On the other hand, his grandfather is a master of Hunan cuisine, and he also hopes that he can become a chef specializing in Hunan cuisine, and he doesn't want to see him like a hodgepodge, learning a dish here, learning a dish there, and being able to do everything and not be good at anything.
But he does what he wants, and learns whatever he likes.
This is another "contradiction" between Lu Shuwu and his grandfather.
Of course, none of this really matters, the important thing is that he does make soup dumplings.
"You're right, the soup dumplings are indeed dead noodles, because the fermented dough is fluffy and soft, and it is difficult to lock the soup in the soup dumplings."
Hearing him say this, Jiang Yu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, he had been worrying about where to find a pastry chef before, but he didn't expect that it was less than a day, and he sent it to the door by himself, it seems that his luck during this time is really good.
He nodded at Lu Shuwu and said with a smile,
"It seems that you did make soup dumplings, so that's fine, if you want, stay and make it for a few days.
After all, you also know the situation in this store, there are many people who come to buy soup dumplings every day, so the workload is very large, and I am afraid that you will not be able to adapt to this intensity.
If we can get used to it, let's talk about the treatment then.
By the way, you have ID cards and health certificates or something, right? ”
"Yes, yes!"
Lu Shuwu saw that he could stay, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that the other party would refuse, if that was the case, then he could only run home in a gloomy manner as the little sister said before.
Thankfully, that didn't happen.
After thinking about it, he added,
"Boss, in fact, I really don't need to be paid, as long as the store can provide food and accommodation, you see?"
"Still wrapped?"
Hu Zhihai, who hadn't spoken for a long time, couldn't help but speak when he heard it,
"Don't you have a place to live? So where do you live now? ”
"Stay in a hotel in the city."
Lu Shuwu said honestly, "It's the Qinghu Hotel across the square." ”
Hu Zhihai was taken aback: "Good guy, I live in a five-star hotel, and I come to work in a steamed bun shop!" ”
"I only stayed for two or three days, and soon I would run out of money."
Lu Shuwu was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile,
"That's why I thought about asking the boss to provide a place to live, and I didn't pick it, just a place to sleep at night."
Hu Zhihai looked surprised, couldn't help but look at him twice, and muttered:
"You have no money, and you still live in a five-star hotel, what do you think in your head?"
Lu Shuwu: "......"
What else can you think about this?
Who knew that when I came to Jiangzhou this time, I would meet such a freak with superb cooking skills in the school cafeteria?
If I hadn't thought that I could eat the food he made for the first time, I wouldn't have stayed, and if I hadn't stayed, my grandfather wouldn't have asked my dad to block my bank card, and if I hadn't blocked my bank card, I would have been able to continue to live in a five-star hotel......
"Otherwise, you can rent a house nearby by yourself in a while."
Jiang Yu himself lived in the school dormitory, so naturally he couldn't provide him with a place to live, and after thinking about it, he could only let Lu Shuwu rent a house by himself, he said,
"Do you still have money in your pocket to rent a house? If not, you can pay some from me first, and the rent will be paid in the store. ”
"Hey, why bother?"
"Isn't there an empty room where I live? Anyway, it's empty and empty, just let Xiao Lu live here! ”
Without waiting for Lu Shuwu to speak, Hu Zhihai waved his hand, he turned his head and patted Lu Shuwu's shoulder, and said with a serious look,
"Xiao Lu, don't go out to rent a house by yourself, you don't know the place well, it's not safe and boring to live alone, you can chat and relieve boredom if you live with me."
In my opinion, you should stay in the store to familiarize yourself with the situation first, and then I will take you there when the store closes in the evening. ”
He thought to himself, this kid is unknown, who knows if he has any bad intentions, or let him stare at ease!
Jiang Yu also made a little sense when he heard it, glanced back at Lu Shuwu, and asked tentatively:
"What do you think?"
"No problem, that's good, thank you boss!"
Lu Shuwu responded with a smile, but complained to Hu Zhihai in his heart:
Xiao Lu ......
Xiao Lu, you are a big-headed ghost, is it better for labor and management to be bigger than you?!
