Chapter 279: Xiao Jiang, You Are Our Secret Weapon for Admissions

"Yikes! The interview list for the recruitment of chefs in the Seven Canteens has come out, who are these people, and do you know anyone who comes out to talk about it? ”

"Hold the grass! I'm a cooking technician, but I haven't even passed the initial screening? This, this, this, there must be a shady scene, a dark box operation! ”

"I'm going to die laughing upstairs! When a university recruits a chef, it must be a suitable one, and it is necessary to operate in the dark? ”

"Hahaha! I actually passed the primary selection and made the interview list! Sorry comrades! From now on, please call me Chef of Seven Canteens! ”

"This colleague, please don't be embarrassed yet, when you can pass the interview and sign an employment contract with Boss Xiaojiang, you can brag again!"

“……”

The "Jiang Daqi Canteen" comic account just released the "Interview Notice on the Recruitment of Chefs in Jiang Daqi Canteen", which immediately attracted the attention of many netizens, and for a while, the comment area instantly became lively.

But in fact, most netizens are just spectators, and those who really submitted resumes to apply for jobs are actually about 200 people, which is really a drop in the bucket compared to the hundreds of thousands of attention of "Jiangda Seven Canteen".

Like Xiong Zhengtao, the other nine candidates who were shortlisted for the interview were naturally ecstatic, you know, they got the interview qualification for the recruitment of chefs in the Seven Canteens of Jiang University, which means that they are one step closer to whether they can successfully join the big collective of the Seven Canteens.

It's not just a job, it's also a great opportunity to improve your skills.

The most important thing is that as long as you work in the seventh canteen, it means that you can eat the food cooked by Boss Xiaojiang every day, which is much more important than being able to improve your cooking skills.

However, after being excited and excited, Xiong Zhengtao and these people also became nervous one by one.

As we all know, it has been made clear in the recruitment notice that Jiang Daqi Canteen only recruits three chefs for this chef recruitment, two of whom are red eucalyptus chefs and one is white eucalyptus chefs.

The requirements of the red eucalyptus chef are higher, and the senior chef is good at making dishes of one or two cuisines, and must also have his own representative dishes.

This so-called representative dish refers to the dishes that a chef is best at making and can perfectly bring out his highest level of culinary skills.

A good chef's representative dishes can often become a restaurant's signature dish, and can also become the restaurant's highlight to attract customers.

Comparatively speaking, the requirements of the white eucalyptus chef are much simpler, and only require proficiency in making all kinds of steamed buns, pancakes, ramen and other pasta dishes.

Skills like these can be met by anyone who has worked in a steamed bun shop or noodle shop for a few years, and they don't even need to study professionally in a culinary school.

Among the ten chefs, three are white eucalyptus chefs, and there are seven red eucalyptus chefs left, and two of these seven people are finally selected, which means that there are still five people to be eliminated.

No one wants to be eliminated by themselves, this is not only a faceless thing, this is a great opportunity to learn from Boss Xiaojiang!

Therefore, ten people, including Xiong Zhengtao, practiced desperately as if they were crazy in the remaining few days.

They don't know what the content of the interview is, but they can more or less know that cooking skills are the same as martial arts, no one can see the level of martial arts just by looking at the surface, whether it is okay or not, then you have to pull it out and practice!

At the end of the day, you still have to make a few signature dishes for everyone to enjoy.

Who is strong and who is weak, you will know it in one product!

……

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the end of June.

In the past few days, various colleges have begun to organize students to take final exams, and the whole campus is filled with a busy and tense atmosphere.

Except for those students who study very weekdays, they are relatively calm, and the other students are all "like great enemies", and they all wish to have 48 hours a day, so that they can have a little more time to make up for the study they have missed on weekdays.

Even if it's just grinding the gun in battle, it's better than "sitting still".

After all, if you want to eat delicious, you have to wait in a long line, and just that waiting time can make you read a few more pages of a book or memorize a few more words.

In the past, I always felt that time was too slow and life was boring, but when it came to the exam, I suddenly realized that it always ran fast when it needed time.

It is precisely because of this that some people have to give up the delicious food in the Seven Canteens, and grasp the revision while nibbling on bread.

Of course, although there are fewer students coming to eat in the seventh canteen, it is still overcrowded and bustling compared to the other cafeterias in the school.

After all, there is no shortage of people who appreciate food in this world.

On this day, Jiang Yu, as usual, came to the kitchen on the first floor early in the morning to help, and Lu Shuwu, who was standing in front of the operating table and was busy making noodles, saw him coming, and greeted him with a smile:

"The boss is here!"

"Hmm."

Jiang Yu answered, washed his hands and took the plum blossom meat from the side dish room, washed and drained it, chopped it into meat filling, and then added chicken soup jelly to it, brought it to the outside operating table, and began to adjust the filling.

Seeing Jiang Yu sitting down opposite, Lu Shuwu raised his head and glanced at it, and asked:

"By the way, boss, this weekend, the chefs recruited by our canteen are going to start interviews, right?"

"Yes, pick three out of ten people, and it should be done in one morning."

Jiang Yu didn't stop the movements in his hand, and said while adjusting the stuffing, "When the time comes, you and Lao Jia will also come together to help refer to it." ”

"It's okay to refer to it, I'm afraid that my level is not enough."

Lu Shuwu smiled "hehe" and said with some embarrassment,

"Among these ten chefs, several of them are from professional backgrounds, and I feel that their level may be higher than mine, how can I have the qualifications to give them reviews?"

"Be confident, get rid of the word 'maybe.'"

Jiang Yu made a rare joke with Lu Shuwu, he said with a smile,

"It doesn't matter if you're a professional or not, the key is that you are still the chef in charge of a big restaurant, with your current level, you can only be a small chef when you go to a big hotel."

“……”

Listening to Jiang Yu's words, Lu Shuwu suddenly had a black line on his face.

Listen, you listen! Is this what people say?

But after thinking about it, he suddenly deflated again, and said that if he put aside the dishes that the boss taught him, his own cooking skills were really not good.

Just like when the Seven Canteen first opened in October last year, the dishes he fried were farmhouse fried meat, sauerkraut fried noodles and pickled pepper duck offal, and even the part-time students in the kitchen didn't like to eat them, and they were not as popular as the fresh meat buns made by Ma Guoqiang!

This blow is really too big.

Then again, he has been working in the Seven Canteen for so long, not only with Jiang Yu's guidance, but also Lao Jia by his side from time to time to teach a few tricks, but his cooking skills are still limited to improve, which is really a bit embarrassing.

If I go back to Tanzhou in a few years, I still have such poor cooking skills, I am afraid that my old man will be so angry that he will jump up.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but say, "Boss, why don't you just take me as an apprentice, I feel that my cooking skills have not improved much, and I won't have the face to go back to see my grandfather when the time comes." ”

"What kind of apprentices? If you are embarrassed to call me Master, I am embarrassed to agree. ”

Jiang Yu raised his head and glanced at him, and said speechlessly,

"Later, I'll give you back the kitchen notebook that your grandfather gave me before, what is recorded in this notebook is your grandfather's valuable experience in this life, you yourself read it carefully and study it seriously, and if you don't understand, come and ask me, or ask Lao Jia."

I believe that as long as you thoroughly understand your grandfather's notebook and can apply it to cooking, then you can at least reach the level of your grandfather. ”

"Really?"

Lu Shuwu's eyes lit up all of a sudden, just like Ultraman's eyes would glow.

Jiang Yu glared at him, and asked angrily, "Did I lie to you that you have any money?" ”

"Thank you, boss!"

When Lu Shuwu heard this, he immediately said "hehe" and smiled.

Jiang Yu shook his head: "What are you thanking me for?" It was originally your Lu family's thing. ”

The two of them chatted and began to wrap soup dumplings, and it didn't take long for Ma Guoqiang, He Chunxiao and others to come to the canteen one after another, cooking porridge for porridge, buns for buns, and cold dishes for cold dishes......

For a while, the kitchen suddenly began to be lively, and the rich aroma of hot brine also wafted in the air.

In a blink of an eye, the canteen began to open, Jiang Yu also rested, and Hu Zhihai sat in the corner with a big bowl of cold noodles, and ate breakfast "tremblingly".

After the graduation thesis defense, Hu Zhihai seemed to be sensible in an instant, and he no longer thought about being lazy as before, he got up early every day to memorize words, except for three meals a day and would come to the cafeteria, the rest of the time he hid in the self-study room of the library, seriously reviewing and preparing for the war.

It is difficult to tell whether others have studied diligently, but Hu Zhihai's efforts are visible to the naked eye.

In just one month, his whole person looked thinner, and his fat face, which was originally fat, even his cheeks became a little angular.

"Fatty, being admitted to graduate school is not as important as you think, don't break your body."

Jiang Yu didn't want to talk about this, after all, it wasn't a bad thing for Hu Zhihai to be willing to learn, but seeing that he had lost so much weight all of a sudden, he was still a little worried as a brother, so he couldn't help but remind,

"If you go home like this now, I guess your mother won't recognize you."

"How can it be so exaggerated? I'm naturally thin, and it's not a physical problem. ”

Hu Zhihai chewed the mixed noodles in his mouth and swallowed it, and said with a smile,

"If you look at the amount of food I have now, do you think this is what an unhealthy person can have? I was able to eat, drink, sleep, and be in good health.

The reason why I have lost weight is because of the excessive use of my brain for revision and preparation, and I still have to run every morning when I get up, how can I persist in this high-intensity study if my health is not good? ”

"That's good, anyway, you have to know it yourself, and physical health is the most important thing."

When Jiang Yu heard him say this, he was immediately relieved, he looked up at Hu Zhihai, and joked with a smile,

"But don't say it, you're really a little handsome when you lose weight, not bad!"

"Cut! What kind of vision do you have? Am I handsome? ”

When Hu Zhihai heard this, he couldn't help but his tail, and he said with a narcissistic look,

"I'm telling you, I'm so handsome that even I'm afraid of myself!"

Jiang Yu didn't speak, didn't even eat the rice noodles, and touched his forehead with a free hand.

Hu Zhihai was stunned: "What are you doing?" ”

Jiang Yu shook his head and said with a puzzled expression: "You don't have a fever, how can you talk nonsense like this kid?" ”

Hu Zhihai: "......"

After breakfast, Hu Zhihai didn't stay in the cafeteria for long, picked up his backpack and hurried out, the library was about to open in a while, he had to hurry to the study room to occupy a seat, if he went late, it is estimated that the seats in the study room would be full of books and water glasses.

No matter what school you are in, there are always some people who occupy the pit and don't, and he is not afraid of being smoked into stinky meat.

After Hu Zhihai left, Jiang Yu looked at the time and saw that it was still early, and he was about to take advantage of the fact that it was not very hot outside, and when he went out for a walk, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

He took out his mobile phone and saw that the call was from Xiong Yusheng.

Jiang Yu couldn't help but be stunned, he hadn't seen Xiong Yusheng for a while, and he didn't know what he was busy with, he was looking for himself now, could it be something?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yu didn't delay, stretched out his finger and swiped it on the mobile phone screen, and connected the phone.

"Xiao Jiang, have you had breakfast?"

As soon as the phone was connected, Xiong Yusheng's honest and slightly hoarse voice came from the phone line, and he said with a smile in his tone,

"I called you so early and didn't disturb your work, did I?"

"Hello Mr. Xiong, I've already eaten, and I'm planning to go out for a walk now."

Jiang Yu held his mobile phone and said as he raised his feet and walked outside the cafeteria, and said with a smile,

"The cafeteria on the first floor has been open for a while, and the time when it should be busy has long passed, so why bother me?

By the way, Mr. Xiong, have you had breakfast? If you haven't eaten, why don't you come to the cafeteria for a bit? I can leave you a copy of what you want to eat. ”

"No, no, I've eaten it at home."

When Xiong Yusheng heard Jiang Yu say this, he was immediately relieved.

This Xiaojiang still misses the old love very much, even now, he still respects himself as much as before, which is really rare.

This thought only flashed in his heart, he was looking for Jiang Yu today, after thinking about it, he continued,

"By the way, Xiao Jiang, since you plan to come out for a walk now, why don't you come to my side for a cup of tea? As it happens, I have something I'd like to discuss with you. ”

After a pause, he said in a serious tone,

"This matter may be more complicated, and I am afraid that it will not be clear for a while on the phone."

"Is that so? Okay, I'll go over now. ”

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yu didn't waste time, and walked slowly in the direction of the administrative building along a path next to the canteen.

At the end of June, it was already very hot in Jiangzhou, and the sun hung in the sky early, just like a woman who was angered by her husband, unleashing her anger without any scruples, so that the big trees on the side of the campus road also became wilted, and even the leaves were curled up in the sun.

In this scorching heat, even the wind is a luxury.

Only those who have been affected know it, lying among the dense branches and leaves of the big tree, shouting with their throats "knowing and knowing", this shrill singing one after another, adding a bit of dryness to the sultry weather.

It is not far from the seventh canteen to the administrative building of Jiang University, and it is only a ten-minute walk, but by the time Jiang Yu came to the front of the administrative building, he was already sweating all over, and even the clothes on his back were soaked.

It was not yet time to go to work, and the administrative building seemed quite quiet, and I didn't see a few people all the way in.

Jiang Yu didn't bother with it, he went up the stairs to the third floor in one breath, and soon came to Xiong Yusheng's office.

The office door was still ajar, and Xiong Yusheng had probably arrived not long ago, and he was holding a wet rag and carefully wiping the cigarette ash that had fallen on the coffee table.

In a corner in front of the balcony, the water in the electric kettle was about to boil, and it was "gurgling" out steaming.

Seeing Jiang Yu coming, Xiong Yusheng immediately straightened up and said with a smile:

"Xiao Jiang is here? Look at the sweat on your head, hurry in and blow the air conditioner!

The bad weather in Jiangzhou, cold in winter and hot in summer, are simply two extremes, if people from other places come from other places, they really can't adapt to it for a while. ”

"I've been here for four years, and I'm used to it."

Jiang Yu exhaled lightly, walked to the sofa and sat down, smiled and said,

"Is Mr. Xiong busy during this time? I don't seem to see you go to the cafeteria lately. ”

"Well, every year at this time, it is the busiest time for the Student Affairs Office, a series of jobs for students to graduate and find employment, as well as various student jobs before the summer vacation, etc."

Xiong Yusheng took out a clean cup from the cupboard, and said while making tea for Jiang Yu,

"Although there are a lot of things, these are things that have to be done every year, and it is not difficult, but it is more time-consuming."

As he spoke, he had already made tea, and the office was suddenly filled with a fragrant fragrance of tea leaves.

Xiong Yusheng brought the steaming tea to the coffee table in front of Jiang Yu, and said with a smile,

"I called you here today because it has something to do with my work.

In fact, since June, our student work office has been intensively preparing for the recruitment of new students in September this year.

At the end of June, students will soon start to fill in the volunteers, although our school will also take the initiative to contact some outstanding students in middle schools in the province at this point in time.

But to be honest, compared with Shuimu Kyyo University and Magic University of Science and Technology, our school is not half a star worse in terms of scientific research and teachers, and it is not competitive at all.

Therefore, the teachers of our admissions office have always done their best to obey the destiny of God, and it is naturally best if students are willing to apply for our school, and if they are not, we will have no problem. ”

Speaking of this, Xiong Yusheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and his face began to show an excited expression, and even his voice was raised all of a sudden,

"But this year is different, because our school has you and the seven canteens, which is our 'secret weapon' to compete with other universities!"

“……”

Jiang Yu looked at Xiong Yusheng's eyes lit up, with an excited look, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.

He never thought that he and the Seven Canteens could "add glory" to the school's enrollment?

The food in the Seven Canteens is indeed delicious, but it will not affect students to change their college entrance examination aspirations, right?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yu said with some hesitation, "Teacher Xiong, I didn't understand what you meant......

This is too exaggerated, who would bet on their future for the sake of a bite to eat?

Wouldn't that be a fool?

Even if he wanted to, his family would not agree!

"Hehe, Xiao Jiang, you must have misunderstood what I meant."

Xiong Yusheng looked at Jiang Yu with a puzzled look, obviously guessing his thoughts, he waved his hand and said with a smile,

"We're not saying that we want to compete for students with top domestic universities such as Mizuki Kyyo University and Magic University of Science and Technology, that's not realistic.

Let's tell the truth in private, even if the top batch of high-quality students really come to our school, with the current teaching strength and teaching level of the school, I am afraid that they are really not able to teach according to their aptitude and give full play to their maximum potential.

But we can do what we can, and compete with those schools that are slightly stronger than us for better quality students than in previous years, which we can completely do, don't you say? ”

After a pause, he added,

"Xiao Jiang, you should know that all universities want to recruit good students.

The quality of students not only reflects the candidates' recognition of the school, but also reflects the reputation of a university for talent training.

Let's put it this way, the better the quality of students, the better the students that can be cultivated, the better the reputation and reputation of the school, and the more resources the school itself can get for the construction of teachers and disciplines, and naturally it will be better.

To put it bluntly, this is a virtuous circle process. ”

Regarding university education, to be honest, Jiang Yu really doesn't understand much, after all, he is still just a student.

But listening to Xiong Yusheng's words, I can understand a little bit.

If nothing else, let's just say that there is now a professor Hans in the School of Life Sciences of Jiang University, who is an internationally renowned expert in the field of biological sciences.

This is why many colleges and universities are willing to introduce high-level professors and experts, which can not only improve the school's discipline construction ability, but also attract more high-quality students.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yu probably understood, he thought about it, and asked again:

"Teacher Xiong, what can I and the Seven Canteens do for the school in terms of freshman enrollment?"

"You don't have to worry about this, I already have an idea."

Xiong Yusheng took a sip of tea from the teacup and smiled at Jiang Yu,

"When the time comes, I'm afraid I'll have to work hard for you to make something delicious to whet the appetite of those students.

As long as I have tasted the food you cooked, I can't believe that they can still be impressed! ”
