"They don't recruit cooks. To read the latest chapters, please lock in the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info"
Hu Wei got out of the crowd and wiped the sweat on his head, in this troubled world, it is not easy to find a job where you can eat, this is not seen anything, so people squeeze out a sweat, this already torn enough clothes have become more torn.
"Don't you recruit?" Qin Ming shook his head with some disappointment, he didn't expect that the two of them, who had more than 700,000 troops in their hands, couldn't even get a job as a man.
"You two want to find a job as a man?"
While Hu Wei and Qin Ming were talking, a bald man in cotton clothes interjected and asked.
Looking at the clothes of this big man, you can see at a glance that he is the little steward of a big family. Things seem to be turning around.
Hu Wei and Qin Ming glanced at each other, deliberately making the kind of timidity that belonged to the country boy, and looked at the big man in a daze without speaking.
The bald man looks very fierce, but he is quite angry, and he seems to be quite satisfied with the reaction of these two people, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, two little brothers, I'm not a bad person." My name is Liu Youdao, and I am a steward. I came here today to find two kitchen helpers, and after seeing a few people, they were not suitable. Just now, I accidentally heard this little brother say that he wanted to find a job cooking, so I came out. ”
Hu Wei saw that Qin Ming didn't mean to speak, so he took Liu Youdao's words and said, "Then which restaurant are you from?"
Hu Wei is asking a, everyone has already said it, he is the manager of the house, how can he open a restaurant.
What Hu Wei has to do is to act like he doesn't understand anything, and he does a full set of acts.
Liu Youdao did not get angry because of Hu Wei's words, but patiently explained: "This little brother didn't understand it, I don't open a restaurant, I am the manager of a family." ”
Hu Wei nodded as if he didn't understand, "Oh, then what is your family selling?"
Qin Ming was on the side, and he almost couldn't help but give Hu Wei a kick. It's okay to pretend, this kid is pretending to be a little too much. Does he think that the country boy is all the image of a fool?
Liu Youdao was also a little speechless by Hu You, but he still liked Hu Wei like this. When I came out today, I had already explained that I wanted to find two honest ones, and the ones I saw before were all oily and slippery, which was not ideal. He likes these two very much, and presumably the above ones will be satisfied.
Liu Youdao smiled and said, "We don't sell food. Alas, let me tell you this, our family is very big, you know the imperial capital, my family is very powerful in the imperial capital. Now, we are out to run errands, and there are some problems with the temporary husband, and there is a shortage of people for a while, so we came out to find two.
If you want, come back with me. If you do a good job, you can follow us on the road, and when you return to the imperial capital, you can also stay in the mansion to do things.
I said that, you know that, right?"
Hu Wei glanced at Qin Ming, and saw that Qin Ming nodded slightly, indicating that he was still satisfied. Hu Wei also felt that when he met a family in the imperial capital, it seemed to be not bad, so that he could have a lot less trouble when he entered the imperial capital all the way.
Hu Wei nodded, shook his head again, and said warily: "Why don't you go out to eat in a restaurant, do you still have to bring your own cook?"
You're not trying to fool us, are you? We don't have any money. We won't get anything out of you lying to us. Also, we're both men, so don't you want to sell us to the Qinglou. ”
Liu Youdao was really made to laugh and cry by Hu Wei's stupid 'shrewdness'. He shook his hand again and again: "How could I lie to you, go out with the cook, that is the habit of my young master, and it has nothing to do with the restaurant." ”
Seeing that Hu Wei still looked unconvinced, Liu Youdao took out dozens of copper coins, opened them in his hand and said: "There is no shortage of money in my house, if you do well, you will have fifty copper plates a month." If the host is happy, there will be a reward. ”
Hu Wei seemed to have never seen money, staring at the copper plate in Liu Youdao's hand, and nodded again and again: "Good girl, there is so much money, it shouldn't be a lie." We did, we did. ”
Liu Youdao laughed secretly in his heart, dozens of copper plates, you will faint, fortunately I am really looking for a husband, otherwise I will sell the two of you, and you don't know what happened
Liu Youdao saw that the goal was achieved, put away the money, and said with a smile: "It's not so easy to get into the mansion to do things. You have to tell me first, what is your name, where are you, and what kind of dishes do you cook? ”
Hu Wei replied without thinking: "Our brother is an old cousin in the same village, his name is Lu Dahai, my name is Wu Dahe, and I am from Niujia Village, Donggong City. We have followed Master, what spicy chicken, vinegared fish, we will know. ”
Liu Youdao asked again: "Then why did you come to Langtian to find a job?" ”
Hu Wei said with a sad face: "The family can't survive anymore, this year's harvest is not good, the taxes are heavy, and there is a war all day long." First came some kind of fire army, and then some kind of fooling general, fighting back and forth. My cousin and I were afraid of war, so we wanted to leave our hometown to make a living. Alas"
Hu Wei's acting skills are quite good, and he is about to cry when he talks about it. The best thing is that he deliberately said Hu Wei out of a fool's mind, making Qin Ming almost not laugh.
Liu Youdao seemed to be hooked up by Hu Wei, and he wiped his eyes and sighed: "Alas, there is no way to do it." Let's go, go back with me, as long as you have real skills, I will definitely keep you staying. When I returned to the imperial capital, I was all right. ”
Hu Wei and Qin Ming went back to the inn together under the pseudonym Lu Dahai and Wu Dahe, following Liu Wudao. Because Langtian is at war and has blocked the traffic of Water 6, the head of the family of Liu Youdao does not live in Langtian City, but on the cross slope ten miles south of Langtian.
Cross Slope is the frontier of Langtian, it was a market before, with the exhibition of Langtian City, it is also very lively here, because there is no strategic value, Cross Slope does not have the entry of the Fire Army, it is a safe place.
Along the way, it was full of ordinary people fleeing the war. The cows and the sheep are about to block the road. The main street of Cross Slope is not much better, and both sides of the street are full of people.
Listening to Liu Youdao's introduction all the way, Hu Wei and Qin Ming knew that it turned out that what they were going to join was the imperial capital Liu family. Hu Wei had been to the imperial capital several times, but he was not familiar with the family in the imperial capital, and looked at Qin Ming when he heard the words. Qin Ming also shook his head, saying that he didn't know the origin of this Liu family.
No matter where he comes from, it's certain that he has money. The largest Cross Slope Inn on the Cross Slope has been completely wrapped by the Liu family. According to Liu Youdao, many guest rooms are empty, and they can't live with Ben, and the reason why they are all-inclusive is because of safety.
Liu Youdao seems to be in charge of the work of his subordinates, and his status is not very high, after Hu Wei and the two entered the inn with him, they met several stewards in a row, and then they were assigned a room. When Liu Youdao left, he told him that he had not been summoned, and he should not walk around casually, so as not to injure the guards by mistake. If there was any work to be done, he would personally come and take the two of them there.
Qin Ming checked that the left and right rooms were empty, and then he stepped down on the bed that belonged to him. He didn't care about Hu Wei's random names. Anyway, this name won't last a few days, and it's not a real name.
Hu Wei saw Qin Ming go down, and he also fell on the bed with a big grin, from the assassination of Liu Guang to now, two days, I haven't slept well, and I am really tired.
Hu Wei lay on the bed, muttering what Liu Youdao said when he left: "Don't ask what you shouldn't know, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't understand what you shouldn't understand, don't listen to what you shouldn't hear, don't hear it, don't hear it, Maragobi, what the hell is this Liu family doing, the spectrum is so big." Lao Qin, how can you say that you have lived in the imperial capital for a few days, and you really haven't heard of it at all?"
Qin Ming said speechlessly: "You don't know, ninety percent of the aristocratic families in the Mandala Empire are all in the imperial capital, and if you throw a stone, you can hit a nobleman, and I will go to know so many people." ”
Hu Wei waved his hand and said: "You have to get it, if you don't know, you don't know, anyway, it doesn't matter much, I'm tired, I'll sleep first, you'll be on duty all night if you're fine." ”
"On fart night, two country boys, who will pay attention to us. Qin Ming also pulled the quilt to sleep, so as not to worry about it. With their kung fu, whoever wants to get close, they can know that they can use the special night duty, besides, the sky is still bright, so what is the night value.
The two people in the room fell asleep, and they didn't know how long they had been asleep, when they suddenly felt alarmed, and they opened their eyes at the same time. Hu Wei saw that Qin Ming was about to move, so he gave him a look and asked him not to startle the snake.
It was clear that there was someone outside the door, but they didn't push the door in. Hu Wei guessed that the people outside the door should have come to probe them, so he opened his eyes and snored.
Qin Ming glanced at Hu Wei with some admiration, he couldn't do this hand. At most, he can lie down and pretend to sleep, unlike Hu Wei, who can open his eyes and pretend to be more real.
There was a sound from the door, because Liu Youdao said that he was not allowed to stalk the door when he left, so the door opened with a slight push, and Hu Wei quickly closed his eyes and paid attention to the movements around him.
"Don't they have any baggage?"
An unfamiliar voice sounded in the room, and Hu Wei wanted to see who was talking, but he didn't dare, because he could feel that the person's gaze was on him. As soon as you open your eyes, you will be revealed.
Liu Youdao's voice sounded: "If you go back to the manager, they are so poor that they only have a set of clothes, and they don't even have a baggage." ”
The manager snorted and said, "Yes, have you checked the details of the two of them?"
Liu Youdao nodded again and again: "Check it out, they are just two country boys, cousins, they haven't seen much of the world, and they don't have any relatives at home." ”
The manager warned: "Liu Youdao, don't blame me for not reminding you. Since you recruited them, you have to be responsible for them, and if something goes wrong, I can count them on you. ”
Liu Youdao replied: "Don't worry, manager, I will guarantee that they will not have any problems, if there is a problem, you"
The sound became smaller and smaller, and the sound after that could not be heard.
Hu worriedly said, this Liu Youdao said goodbye to people who don't look good, he still protects them, and he is a good person.
Hu Wei and Qin Ming didn't move, looking at the door that was not closed, they knew that Liu Youdao would definitely come back. Sure enough, about ten minutes later, Liu Youdao walked into the room again and woke up Hu You.
"Steward Liu, is there something wrong?" Hu Wei just woke up, looking at Liu Youdao in a daze.
Liu Youdao said: "Don't sleep, get up and follow me to the kitchen." The young master is going to invite someone to dinner tonight. ”
Hu Wei was surprised: "There is work to do so soon, but we haven't tried the craft yet." ”
Liu Youdao hurriedly said: "I don't have the kung fu to try, I'll talk about this later."
"Later?" Hu Wei looked at Qin Ming with some puzzlement, unable to understand what it meant. It wasn't until they entered the kitchen that they understood what Liu Youdao meant, it turned out that there were not only two of them here, but also four of them, and the two of them were newcomers, and they couldn't get a tight job with Ben, and it was all about cutting vegetables and washing vegetables.
Speaking of chopping vegetables, Hu worries about that hatred. It turned out that Qin Ming said that he had never been a husband, which was completely true. This guy doesn't even know how to chop vegetables, and he doesn't know where he learned his murderous methods.
Hu Wei had no choice but to kick Qin Ming to wash the vegetables, take a kitchen knife himself, and dry it with the yellow leek.
After a period of hecticism, Hu Wei and Qin Ming were so tired that they were about to sit on the ground, daring to love that washing vegetables and cutting vegetables was more tiring than cutting people to fight. Hu Wei used to make something for himself and his master at most, but after having the four maids of Xuanri, he basically didn't do anything.
Qin Ming has never been in the kitchen since he was a child, just like that, they dare to come to be a partner, if it weren't for the fact that there were four cooks here, their dream of being a husband would have been shattered, and they would have to roll up their things and get out of the house today.
"It doesn't look like we're capable of doing it. Hu Wei looked at Qin Ming with a wry smile.
Qin Ming's eyes flashed with excitement: "If others can do it, we can do it, I have already learned a few hands just now, give me some time, and I will be able to learn it all." ”
Hu Wei was stunned when he heard this, and said, "You kid shouldn't have regarded being a cook as a lifelong dream?" ”
"Hey, you two newcomers, don't be lazy, the dish is almost done, hurry up and serve it. A chef yelled at the two of them.
Hu Wei shook his head helplessly: "Yes, let's go to work." ”
took two large trays, Hu Wei and Qin Ming respectively loaded the prepared dishes and held them in their hands. Liu Youdao is just outside the kitchen, they don't have to worry, they can't find the way.
Liu Youdao seemed to have known that Hu Wei and the two would be called to serve the food, and when he saw the two of them coming out, he only said 'follow me', and led the way in front.
This cross slope inn, not very famous, the layout is very good, all wooden structure, there are more than 50 rooms of various specifications and styles, suites.
Hu Wei and Qin Ming followed behind Liu Youdao, walked through the corridor all the way through the courtyard, and went through several inspections of the palace guards before they came to a flower hall.
On the round table in the flower hall, dishes have been placed, and it seems that there are only two or three people at this table today.
While serving the dishes, Hu Wei muttered: "The six people who cook, and the two or three who eat, I don't know, whether this is a waste of resources." ”
They have made few banquets, but they have eaten a lot, and they still know how to set up dishes.
Qin Ming glanced at Liu Youdao, who was guarding the door, and ignored Hu Wei. After setting up the dishes in three or two, he gave Hu Wei a look, and withdrew one by one.
Just about to go out, suddenly a person's voice came from outside the door, which startled Hu Wei and grabbed Qin Ming. Fortunately, Qin Ming has been accustomed to Hu You's sudden movements in the past few days, otherwise he would have to throw Hu Wei out.
Qin Ming stopped and looked at Hu Wei in confusion. Hu Wei put his fingers to his mouth, signaling Qin Ming not to speak, and pricking up his ears to listen to the movement outside.
Qin Ming thought that Hu Wei had shown something, and he also pricked up his ears and paid attention to the conversation outside. Outside the door, it was Liu Youdao talking to a young man, all about the preparation of the banquet, and there was nothing special. Qin Ming couldn't figure out what kind of wind Hu Wei was smoking.
On the way back, Hu Wei kept frowning, as if he was thinking about something. Qin Ming wanted to ask, but there was still Liu Youdao walking in front of him, and it was difficult for him to speak.
Finally finding an opportunity, Qin Ming asked, "What are you thinking, did you know that person just now?"
Hu nodded worriedly and said, "Do you remember when we were in a group, there was one named Rildo?"
Qin Ming thought for a while, shook his head and said, "The time of our group is not enough for half a day, so I don't have any impression. ”
Hu Wei said: "The young guard who spoke outside the door just now is Rildo. ”
Qin Ming still didn't understand and asked, "What exactly do you want to say?"
Hu Wei thought for a while and said: "Lildo is from Zhongzhou, he was originally from my group, you know." When I went to the Columbia Military Academy, because Anrong invaded Qingzhou, those under my command, including Zhu Daneng and Hou San, were all scattered and assigned to different units.
After that, I retrieved Zhu Daneng one by one, but there were only two people, and I couldn't find them, and no one knew their whereabouts. ”
Qin Ming interjected, "One of them is Rildo?"
Hu Wei nodded and said, "Yes, one of them is Lildo, and the other is Lalei."
Qin Ming said: "I remember Lalei, that little man who looks like a girl. When you say that, I remember that Larley has always been followed by a person. By the way, when we fought with the second class, Laray's side has always protected one person, and that person is Rildo."
Hu Wei nodded and said, "Although I didn't notice what you said, I can be sure that the person you are talking about is Rildo." I've seen this happen more than once.
We are enemies and not friends, and there are some things that I wouldn't have told you, but today we happened to meet so much, so I'll tell you. I've always suspected that Larley's identity is mysterious, but I can't find out what he does. Now seeing Lildo, I suspect Laray is here too, maybe"
Qin Ming said: "Maybe he is the young master in Liu Youdao's mouth"
Hu Wei nodded and said, "Smart." So I want you to join forces with me to find out about this. ”
Qin Ming reminded: "You already owe me once"
Hu Wei said angrily: "Aren't I paying you back?" If I'm guessing correctly, Laray must be from the Royal Cavalry Regiment and his identity is beyond our imagination."
