Governor of the Metropolitan Water Cook, Section 113
"Go make some tea."
"Whoa."
Cui Zhiyun continued to walk inside, and when he saw Su Xingzhang sitting leisurely inside, a light flashed in his eyes, and he quickly disappeared.
After closing the door, he slowly approached the other party and said:
"Today's visit, what new clues does Su Siqing have?"
Su Xingzhang didn't reply immediately, but shrunk his nose and sniffed the stronger and stronger the aroma that came from Cui Zhiyun's body as he got closer.
The first reaction in his mind was that his nose was wrong, and it was not that he had not been with Cui Zhiyun to discuss things before.
Even though Cui Jian Cheng was born in the Boling Cui clan, under the influence of the affairs of the capital water supervisor, his body was naturally filled with a faint smell of river water.
Especially on the day before, there was a sour smell all over his body, not only him, but also the people standing around Cui Jiancheng when he was in the court.
Even later, there were a lot of rumors in Luoyang City, and even he heard a few ears from the mouths of his colleagues.
But now, Su Xingzhang felt the increasingly rich fragrance on the tip of his nose, and began to wonder if there was something wrong with his nose?
In the officials of the capital water supervisor, especially Cui Zhiyun, who does everything himself, he actually felt the seductive fragrance?
His first reaction was that he had interrogated the prisoner for too long last night, and now his brain had not eased up, and he was dizzy, so that his nose would be wrong.
Because, unconsciously, he shook his head, shook his mind clearly, and he wanted to feel it carefully.
At this time, Cui Zhiyun had naturally sat in the seat next to Su Xingzhang.
Suddenly, I saw Su Xingzhang shaking his head violently, and thought that there was something wrong with the person they caught in the bribery account book.
Immediately anxiously asked, "But what went wrong during the interrogation?" ”
This sound sounded in Su Xingzhang's ears like thunder, and the cold voice also extinguished the curious flame in his heart.
After Su Xingzhang realized that it was caused by his own thoughts, he immediately explained:
"Cui Jiancheng acted properly, and naturally there was nothing wrong with the arrangement, the Guo Maoan you selected is really the weakest link in it, and if you use the son born in his outer room to threaten him, you will recruit everything.
According to him, their Guo family was mainly responsible for packing the smuggled salt transported from Guannai Province and replacing it with the bags of their Guo family trading house to sell as grain in the south. The checkpoints along the way will also be restricted for the influence of their interest groups, and the content of their shipments will not be checked, and there are also people from you who are water supervisors. ”
"It's clear below."
As long as it is Cao Yun, don't think about staggering the water supervisor, Cui Zhiyun knows all this very well, and if he remembers correctly, there is a name he is familiar with in the account book.
After coming back in the past two days, the other party also came to disturb him frequently, and said that he would deal with all the official business accumulated in these days.
There was endless malice hidden in the words, and in order not to affect the overall situation, he had to lie dormant temporarily.
Su Xingzhang looked at Cui Zhiyun's clear expression and continued to add:
"As for the biggest person we have found now, it is the Guo family who is a side concubine in the Zhao Palace, Guo Maoan's words revealed that they were contacted through Guo Fangfei, and even the silver earned was sent to the Zhao Wangfu through the reason of giving gifts to Guo Fangfei......"
While linking the known clues, the two pondered who the final mastermind of this illicit salt case was.
Cui Zhiyun looked at the characters of the gate valve family who appeared in the account books, and knew that this matter must not only be involved by King Zhao.
How could a powerless and powerless King Zhao attract so many people from a family and give up his own interests?
According to the share squeezed in the account books, King Zhao's income occupies almost half of the country, which is inconsistent with common sense.
There must be other doorways that they need to think about carefully, peel back the cocoon, and find out the people who are hiding in the depths.
In the interval between the two talks, Zheng Wan in the back kitchen is also busy with the morning food.
She glanced up at the sky outside, confused that Chef Liu hadn't arrived at this hour.
Suddenly, thinking of what Zhao Qingyou mentioned at home before, the steps that originally wanted to step out of the door of the kitchen stopped instantly, if Chef Liu was really celadon, it is estimated that she still has busy work today, at least now she can't leave.
Just before she could think about it, a person suddenly came to the kitchen courtyard, and when she saw Zheng Wan, she showed a flattering smile and saluted and asked:
"Presumably this is Mrs. Zheng, right? Wang Dian has something to do with Zheng Niangzi, and please go to the front yard. ”
Wang Dianshi is the official in charge of the public kitchen, and when Zheng Wan heard this, he immediately replied:
"Please also ask Lang Jun to lead the way."
"Mrs. Zheng is polite, please."
The people who came didn't expect a master like Zheng Wan to be so polite, his attitude became more and more respectful, and he took Zheng Wan all the way to the position where Wang Dianshi was doing things.
After a while, he came to the area where Wang Dianshi worked.
When Wang Dianshi heard the footsteps, he immediately looked at the passers-by, and was polite to Zheng Wan before, because she was the one Cui Jiancheng specially asked to stay in the kitchen.
Now he really has a little admiration for Zheng Wan, being able to defeat the palace people who often make meals for the saints in the assessment of the Shangshi Bureau, which is not something that anyone can do.
It was the first time he had encountered such a character since he came to the capital water prison.
Thinking of the document of Liu Xingyan's resignation that he received yesterday, he felt that it was the best decision to keep Zheng Wan in the kitchen to be in charge of the meal.
So, in Zheng Wan's calm gaze, he slowly spoke:
"Invite Mrs. Zheng to come over, there is something to discuss."
"Wang Dian, please speak up."
Chapter 75: Apprenticeship?
"Yesterday, Liu Xingyan came to say goodbye, saying that he wanted to step down as the head chef of the Dushui Supervisor, thinking of his old age, and the official agreed to his request. Thinking that Zheng Niangzi has just passed the assessment of the Shang Food Bureau, and is also qualified to serve as the head chef of the supervisor, I don't know what Zheng Niangzi thinks? ”
Wang Dianshi felt that his attitude was already good, and he couldn't be better.
At the same time, he was also thinking about Zheng Wan's winning the first place in his heart, thinking about whether he should find a time to go to the public chef to try the other party's craftsmanship.
Zheng Wan was already a little prepared for this matter, and when he heard Wang Dianshi's words, he immediately bowed down to Wang Dianshi and bowed his hand.
"Thank you for your thoughts, but it's disrespectful."
"Hahahaha! Mrs. Zheng doesn't have to be humble, the chef's cooking skills are still working in our water superintendent, which is also the honor of our first prison official. This matter is decided, other monthly money and benefits will be changed this month, and the lady can go directly to the account office at the end of the month to receive it. ”
"Thank you, Wang."
"Mrs. Zheng doesn't have to be so polite, you have to take up the burden of the chef today."
"Whoa."
After a brief conversation, it was immediately decided that Zheng Wan would become the chef of the public chef of the capital water supervisor.
After Zheng Wan turned to leave the front yard, his mind came back to his senses from such a surprise, and realized that he was about to hurry up and start making lunch, and countless delicacies were floating in his mind.
But the implementation of all this depends on the ingredients prepared by the security manager before it can be concretely determined.
Therefore, when she returned to the public kitchen, she immediately walked in the direction of the storeroom.
An Yunhuan had been waiting for Zheng Wan at the door for a long time, and the moment he saw her appear, his face was still uncontrollable happy, and he appeared in front of Zheng Wan with a bright smile, and said with a smile:
"Today's lunch is in charge of Mrs. Zheng, right?"
"How did Steward An know about this?"
"Rumors, just rumors. In addition, Chef Liu has not appeared today, and the lady has not come home, so you will know it by guessing. ”
"Then it seems that Steward An has prepared so many ingredients today, and he is prepared."
"Hahahaha! It's good for everyone to understand this kind of careful thinking, and it's good to understand. ”
While the two of them were talking, the other handymen who had guessed the news also gathered around, and when they heard An Yunhuan's words, they all smiled tacitly.
After all, although when Zheng Wan was in charge of the public kitchen, everyone had to work a little, but it was worth it to eat such a delicious meal.
Therefore, after An Yunhuan finished speaking, everyone congratulated in unison:
"Congratulations to Mrs. Zheng!"
It was Zhao Qingyou who took the lead, and as soon as Zheng Wan turned around, he saw her standing in the front row of the crowd.
Hearing everyone's congratulatory shouts, I couldn't help but smile with joy on my face.
"Thank you very much, and please bear with me in the future."
"The lady is polite, everyone expects the chef to get better and better under your leadership."
"That's it, the lady doesn't have to be humble, everyone knows your craft."
"These days, everyone also eats beautifully, and expects that three meals a day will be like this in the future."
……
Zheng Wan, who listened to the words that everyone responded, was a little embarrassed, so he had to selectively change the topic.
"Everyone's mind is clear, but it's time to start preparing lunch, so it's better to get busy with business first, and talk about the rest of the rest."
With that, he immediately turned around and walked towards the location of the storeroom.
When the others heard this, they followed suit, and in an instant, the already crowded warehouse was directly crowded, and there was no room to walk.
An Yunhuan obviously went in with Zheng Wan, but the more he walked, the worse his vision became.
As soon as he turned around, he saw the human wall that was about to block himself, and subconsciously retreated, almost knocking Zheng Wan down.
"Oops!"
The sudden impact made Zheng Wan shout out, and after stabilizing his body, he turned to look at the dense crowd and ingredients, and shouted loudly:
"You don't have to come in in such a hurry, you haven't made a specific decision on the dishes for today's lunch, so let's discuss it with the security manager first, you wait at the door first."
"Whoa."
Everyone also realized that the current situation was not good, and walked backwards one after another, standing on both sides of the door to observe the movement inside.
After only An Yunhuan and Zheng Wan were left, the air in the warehouse was easy to breathe.
Zheng Wan looked back and forth at the ingredients in the warehouse and asked:
"What is the rule for lunch and dinner for the chef?"
"There has always been no specific arrangement for these, but there is a certain amount of monthly money withdrawn from the account. For example, the ingredients that Zheng Niangzi saw in the warehouse today, those perishable ones are basically three days' servings, and the others are also used within five days. ”
"But in the past, it doesn't seem that the storehouse has piled up so many ingredients."
"That's because Chef Liu and Lady have different requirements for cooking, and Chef Liu will prefer expensive ingredients when making food for Jian Cheng and others, so he consumes more money. The lady rarely even touches the fashionable mutton in Luoyang City, and with the same money, she can naturally buy more ingredients. ”
