Chapter 1: Deadwood Learns to Cook

A small sound shadow squatted on the side of the playground, unable to play with his friends, or unable to participate in the content of their play.

As long as they are together, they are discussing the strength and weakness of their abilities, saying that they will become powerful people in the future and benefit the world.

Deadwood, who is only eight years old and has no mechanical ability, obviously has no way to understand what his companions think, and Deadwood also has his own ability, but the detecting machine will say that he has no ability, so that Deadwood always thinks that the machine is broken, and for his own statement, others obviously believe in the detector, after all, the detector will not be wrong.

Maybe a day or two of very boring time when no one plays is nothing, but after such a long time, people's hearts will begin to change, and they will become eager for partners, and want to find something to vent the loneliness in their hearts.

But my sister also has to go to school, and she won't play with her, so she doesn't fit in with the person who has the ability at school, so she can't join it.

"But ......"

Deadwood's little head suddenly remembered what the teacher had told him.

"There are a lot of incapable people in the world, don't be too sad about the dead wood, you will be very successful if you study hard."

It turns out that what the teacher said is indeed right, but only the second half of the sentence is right.

The people around Deadwood have abilities, and in their opinion, only Deadwood is a maverick and has no abilities.

At first, there will be people who invite Deadwood to play with them, but the content involved will hardly leave the ability, and they can't understand it at all, and they can't be understood, and it feels like someone is falsely involving themselves, and in fact they are completely excluded and don't care about themselves.

The bored Deadwood watched the swarms of ants on the ground come and go, and felt that it would be nice if he were like ants, so that he would have many companions to accompany him.

....................

Everyone else walked in groups on the sun-drenched path, with only the dead wood alone and the shadow.

Deadwood walked slowly towards home, and he had experienced this situation countless times.

What is different is that today Deadwood found a puppy on the side of the road, a puppy with snow-white hair, and Deadwood slowly approached curiously.

The puppy was not afraid when he saw the dead wood approaching, but sat upright on the ground and wagged his tail at the dead wood.

Although the fur is a snow-white puppy, it is not a little messy on the body, but extra neat, and the puppy also has a bell around its neck, which rings under the blowing of the breeze.

Deadwood walked to the puppy, slowly squatted down, and the little hand slowly stroked the puppy's head, and the puppy also squinted his eyes and enjoyed the caress of the deadwood.

Deadwood loves this puppy very much, and whenever he pets it, he feels a sense of loneliness and release.

Looking at the puppy's appearance, Deadwood knew that the puppy had an owner, and now he needed to find it.

When Deadwood stretched out his hand to pick up the puppy in front of him, the puppy suddenly took a step back, stood up, looked at Deadwood and then behind him, and walked slowly.

Deadwood's immature face was a little puzzled, but it seemed to know that it was to keep up with it.

Deadwood trotted to keep up with the dog, constantly walking to places he didn't recognize.

After a while, Deadwood followed the dog to an inaccessible corner, and the dog came to a door and stopped.

Deadwood looked at the door, and lowered his head to talk to the dog.

"Is this your home?"

With a child's natural curiosity, Deadwood walked through the door and smelled the fragrance.

When Deadwood cared about the smell, he realized that the whole air was filled with this smell.

The deadwood opened the door, and the aroma came directly to the face, and this smell accelerated the hunger of the deadwood.

Although it was in a strange place, the dead wood timidly walked into the door under the lure of the aroma, and then tiptoed against the wall, surveying the surroundings.

The puppy walked up to the dead wood and barked a few times, which caused the house to react.

The sound was hurried, accompanied by the sound of metal colliding with the ground, and the people inside were rushing out.

"Welcome."

Deadwood saw the man who had arrived, an uncle who looked very serious.

Seeing the dead wood, the disappointment is visible to the naked eye.

"Forget it, children, children."

Now Canglan hopes to have guests too much, even children like dead wood will not refuse.

"What do you want to eat, kids?"

Faced with the vicissitudes of the problem, Deadwood shook his head and told him that he had no money.

"It doesn't matter if you don't have money, can you try the food I cooked?"

You don't want money, and now no matter what, you have to let your dishes be tasted by others and get a satisfactory answer.

Deadwood asked Canglan in a low voice, "If you don't want money, do you want something else, will it be poisonous?" ”

Canglan faced the question of the dead wood, and the expression on his face turned into an embarrassing word.

"Why does this kid talk so terrifyingly."

Canglan smiled helplessly, it's good to have one person here, how can he still be poisoned.

Canglan said, what's the use of poisoning dead wood.

Canglan smiled and turned around and walked to the kitchen.

Then there was a panicked shout, "Oh, I'll go, I forgot to turn off the fire, the food is paste." ”

Listening to the cries of Canglan, Deadwood naturally felt that this was a careless uncle.

After processing the food in the kitchen, Canglan came to the dead wood with the finished vegetables.

Deadwood looked up at Canglan with attentive eyes, and then looked at the fragrant dishes, but he couldn't help but eat.

The deadwood didn't stop until he licked the plate like a little gluttonous cat.

Canglan looked at the dead wood's satisfied smile, and felt relieved that his food was finally eaten.

Canglan stroked the puppy's head and said, "Did you bring the person, how did you do it?" ”

After eating the meal, Deadwood jumped down from the stool and looked at Canglan with adoring eyes, wanting to know how Canglan made such a meal.

Canglan is happy to answer such questions, telling Deadwood is talent plus practice.

Talent accounts for 10%, hard work accounts for 90%, hard work is to improve your cooking skills, and the rest of the talent is used to reach the peak.

So talent and hard work are important, as long as you want to be at the top.

Canglan told himself the secret of success, looking at the dead wood and nodding clearly, Canglan was also happy in his heart, he liked the feeling of being liked.

Deadwood now feels that Canglan is not a bad person in his heart, because bad people can't make Deadwood eat delicious dishes in his heart.

Deadwood looked at the puppy next to Canglan and asked Canglan, "Is this your puppy?" ”

Canglan clasped his hands in front of his chest and told Deadwood with certainty that this was his puppy.

"It's called Xiaobai."

As the name suggests, Canglan gave the puppy such a name based on the puppy's intuitive appearance.

Deadwood knew the name of the puppy and immediately called out, "Xiaobai." ”

The puppy who heard his name also stuck out his tongue and wagged his tail at the dead wood, looking cheerful.

Xiaobai likes dead wood very much, and it is also the joy of showing that his owner's restaurant finally has customers to patronize.

In general, Xiaobai deliberately lured Deadwood to see Canglan, and he wanted to help Canglan attract guests.

Deadwood looked at the unmanned restaurant and wondered how no one would come to such a delicious thing.

The problem of dead wood unveiled the pain of the vicissitudes, perhaps because he had been depressed for too long, and he didn't care that dead wood was a child.

Until now, I have been learning to cook for fifteen years, and not long ago I felt that I had the strength to open a restaurant, so I left my original position and prepared to create my own restaurant, but the store was not smooth, because I didn't understand, without the slightest consideration, I bought this extremely remote place, and I wondered why this place was so cheap.

Canglan laughed self-deprecatingly, he felt that this place was more suitable for meditation.

But the remoteness of the place did not wear down the fighting spirit of the vicissitudes, and he believed that as long as he relied on his exquisite craftsmanship, he would be able to open up a piece of the sky.

Canglan has real skills, and finally after unremitting efforts, the business of his store finally opened, but with the increase in the number of people coming to his restaurant, Canglan gradually became too busy, and finally he had no way to resist and decided to hire someone.

At first, there were no problems, and I gradually put my mind at ease, so I handed over the task of purchasing ingredients to my most trusted apprentice and concentrated on cooking.

Canglan didn't expect that his apprentice would use the money to purchase improper materials and swallow the rest of the money himself.

Of course, if there is a problem with the dish, the food will not be much better, fortunately, it does not involve other people's lives, but because of this incident, the restaurant was rectified.

It was such a thing that Canglan finally recognized his apprentice, immediately expelled him, and checked all the projects about cooking by himself, at which time Canglan found that all the procedures were much different from what he had done, and it was not what he expected at all.

After the blow of this incident, all the people hired by Canglan were driven away at once, and everything came back to his own hands.

After this big cleaning, Canglan began to do everything by himself again, and now his restaurant has finally passed the rectification period and can reopen, but even if his cooking skills are still the same, who will come to the restaurant that has a bad reputation.

Speaking of this, Canglan sighed helplessly, blaming himself for using people easily and without scrutiny.

Even Xiaobai was raised when he was frustrated, in order to get his state back on track.

Deadwood is very sympathetic to Canglan, with such a powerful cooking skill, but there is no way to show it.

Deadwood raised his little hand and jumped to his feet.

"Can I learn, learn to cook."

The idle dead wood seems to see what he can do and recommends himself to Canglan.

Canglan didn't feel that this was a joke from Deadwood, but Canglan knew that Deadwood was just a child, and he must have his own business, so he was ready to shake his head.

Before Canglan shook his head, Deadwood preemptively said that he has no abilities to exercise, I am a person without abilities, if I can, I can come when I am free from school, Deadwood wants to help Canglan with a child-like simple heart.

Canglan looked at the dead wood, as if it was acceptable.

"Can you take the hard workouts, then?"

"Well, of course."

The only strength that Deadwood can clearly recognize is its own will.

"Then you can help first."

Canglan agreed to the dead wood first, but Canglan always felt weird with such a child.

Seeing that Canglan agreed, Deadwood nodded happily, and finally found something he could spend time on outside of studying.

....................

After becoming Canglan's new apprentice, Deadwood proposed his idea to Canglan, and he wanted to know if Canglan had promoted his own dishes after he reopened the business.

To put it simply, Deadwood suggested that Canglan could prepare a portable car, load the ingredients, and take the initiative to introduce himself, if the place is not good, then go to a good place.

Deadwood's suggestion was simple and clear, Canglan was stunned, and laughed at himself that he still hadn't adjusted, he didn't expect such a simple thing, and the reason why Canglan didn't expect it was that he was overconfident in his cooking skills and forgot the role of taking the initiative to recommend himself.

Just do it, Canglan drove out his long-dusted portable food truck, looked at his dining car, remembered the first time he opened it, at that time he was like a child in his heart, he had to watch it every day, he would clean it every day, treat his car like his wife, and wait until he had a store, he snubbed his car, now think about it, Canglan felt a trace of guilt in the face of his dining car, and his heart was sour, as if he saw "yesterday" that was still hot-blooded.

Wipe down your food cart again, down to every nook and cranny of dust, until it's brand new again.

The facility has been inspected, it is in good condition, the ingredients are ready, and there is no missing portion.

After solving the problem of relevant documents, the two of them were fully prepared.

....................

The two took advantage of the darkness and decided to go to the lively night market.

The night market is scary, and if you go late, there will be no place, and there will be no place the size of the sole of your foot.

The two of them, who arrived on the first night, returned in vain because they had no place to go.

The second time Canglan learned to be smart, and went directly to occupy the place during the day until night.

In the evening, when the dead wood came out of school, he ran to the stall in the vicissitudes and prepared to work, Xiaobai also wagged his tail excitedly, eager to try.

Although Canglan promised Deadwood, he really didn't know what to do with Deadwood.

Canglan's strength is always online, but in terms of qualifications, it is not as good as those old stalls.

Deadwood didn't want to sit still, took the finished product and walked out, and Xiaobai also followed deftly when he saw this.

Deadwood came to the side of a couple, put the finished product in front of him, looked at the two of them with innocent eyes, and then said in a delicate voice, "Brother and sister, can you try it?" ”

Xiaobai also shouted in agreement, selling cuteness.

In the face of such a cute and handsome little Zhengtai and a puppy, the two had no way to refuse, so they naturally wanted to try it.

The sister called Deadwood took a bite first, tasted it carefully, her eyes were bright, and she quickly let her boyfriend taste it.

The person who was called by the dead wood became suspicious, and his girlfriend's mouth was very harsh, and he felt that there was something that made her excited so easily.

The man quickly tasted it, acting like his girlfriend, and asked Deadwood where he got it from, and Deadwood smiled and pointed at Xiaobai.

Xiaobai barked at the two dogs, saying that he would take them to the stall in Canglan.

Deadwood continued his self-recommended journey, and Xiaobai also rushed to the stall immediately after bringing people to the stall, and ran to Deadwood excitedly......

Canglan is busy, Deadwood Xiaobai is busy, and the two of them are working hard in the division of labor.

As time passed, the efforts of the three finally paid off, and the number of people in front of the Canglan booth gradually increased, and both of them and a dog were very busy.

The stalls became crowded, and people were scrambling to be the first to place orders......

....................

Gradually, the dead wood can touch the kitchenware, and Canglan began to spare no effort to teach the dead wood his own skills, because of the dead wood, he was reborn again, for the dead wood, Canglan completely let go of his guard, and treated the dead wood as his son.

Deadwood learns quickly, but he will also accidentally cut his hand, cutting his little thumb into, this thing makes Canglan feel distressed for a long time, Deadwood doesn't care much, and now Deadwood's intentions in cooking skills are even far more than his peers' intentions for abilities, and Deadwood finally encountered his own focus on the heart.

Deadwood's talent in cooking can be felt with the heart, and Deadwood is definitely a good chef when he grows up.

Canglan imagined the future, thinking that in the future, since Deadwood has no ability, then when he can't do it, he will hand over his shop to Deadwood, and it is also a thing to be proud of having successors.

"No......" Canglan considered the feelings of the dead wood, and it depends on whether the dead wood agrees.

When the popularity came up again, Canglan told everyone the location of his restaurant, so that his customers could come at any time.

Now Canglan has built up the reputation of his restaurant again, and it has exceeded its former notoriety by ten times.

With the revitalization of the restaurant, the problem also comes, the restaurant must be bigger than the dining car, the guests in front of the dining car are far less than the guests of the restaurant, if it is a dining car, Canglan can also come one by one in an orderly manner, but there are many guests in the restaurant, it can't take too long, otherwise the guests will wait too long and leave, speed up the cooking time, will reduce the quality of the dishes, which is contrary to Canglan's insistence, but Canglan still has the problem of not wanting to hire people, he is afraid that his store will be destroyed again, Deadwood had no choice but to wait for the day when his master would accept the hire again.

Deadwood once again gave Canglan an idea, let Canglan open for two weeks, and to act in advance, to make reservations in advance action, the restaurant will no longer accept reservations when it is full, so that it will neither make customers wait, nor cause too many people in the restaurant.

For the sake of the quality of the dish, Canglan accepted Deadwood's proposal without hesitation.

In the days to come, Deadwood will come to Canglan's store to learn to help when he is free, and whenever a guest comes, Xiaobai will bark to remind Canglan to serve food, Xiaobai is like a waiter, helping Canglan when Deadwood is not there.

Xiaobai is a very good puppy, it is it that connects Canglan Deadwood, indirectly rejuvenates his owner Canglan, and allows Deadwood to have something to focus on.

With Xiaobai's scream, Deadwood came out to greet the guests, Canglan was leisurely cooking in the kitchen, and the three of them worked methodically and enjoyed a happy time......

....................

Right now.

Business days of the double week

At this time, Canglan was half gray-haired, and he didn't look as young as he used to be, but his love for dishes was still undiminished, and Deadwood stood in front of the counter and said important things to his master Canglan.

Deadwood looked at the order that Canglan took out, and the dishes on it were more difficult to make one by one, and he couldn't help but look embarrassed.

Deadwood hopes that Canglan will not be tired, "Master, you are already a lot older, don't take so many orders directly, you have received all the orders the day after tomorrow at once." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, you're busy." Canglan showed that he would not get tired, so that the dead wood did not have to care.

Deadwood looked at Canglan and smiled understandingly.

After talking to the dead wood, Canglan walked into the kitchen, and at the same time a person came here, the man walked straight to the counter, patted the beckoning cat on it, and the beckoning cat made a corresponding sound, "Come to the guest, come to the guest." ”

Canglan, who had just walked to the kitchen, turned back and began to greet customers.

Deadwood walked to the door and said without looking back, "My high school has started, I am going to a new school, I may not be able to come for a while, you pay attention, don't get tired, remember to tell me when there are many orders." ”

"Hmm." Canglan replied to Deadwood succinctly, and instructed, "Bring your friends with you next time." ”

Hearing this, Deadwood smiled boredly in his heart and replied, "Then you have to hand it over." ”

Now the signal to notify Canglan to greet guests has been replaced by a mechanical beckoning cat, there are no pets in the restaurant, and Canglan has not raised it again, as for why it has not been raised again, one is that Canglan has aged a lot, and the other is that after raising other pets, Canglan feels that it is a betrayal of the aging and dead Xiaobai.

Deadwood didn't take Canglan too much into the problem of pets, after all, that was also the thing that made Deadwood sad.

Walking on the road, the dead wood faces the sun, and this remote place is no longer lonely during the double week.

Looking at the people who were going to the restaurant one after another, Deadwood's eyes swept over them, smiled knowingly, and basked in the sunshine and moved towards his new school.

Deadwood was looking forward to what was happening there.
