The boisterous Yuanzhou Shop was bustling with customers at noon.
"Wuhai, I heard you are going to hold an art exhibition?" Ling Hong and Wuhai could get along well.
"One more week." Wuhai drank up a mouthful of seaweed soup.
"Then why aren't you leaving?" Ling Hong revealed a manner of dislike.
"It's none of your business." Wuhai stroked his small mustaches and said earnestly.
"If you leave, I can come here every day." Ling Hong also said primly.
"Ok." Wuhai answered with a nod, but didn't tell him when he would leave.
However, Zheng Jiawei had already come to urge him last night.
The reason why Wuhai didn't leave was very simple. He hadn't learned how to cook yet. However, this standard was measured according to Yuan Zhou's level.
"Boss Yuan, you still owe me half a day." Wuhai ate up the last mouthful of rice and looked at Yuan Zhou earnestly.
"Humm. We can continue this afternoon. You buy the ingredients." Yuan Zhou thought for a while and then agreed.
"Still vegetable dishes?" Wuhai knitted his brows.
"Do you expect to learn how to eat meat dishes?" Yuan Zhou asked back unreservedly.
"Alright." Wuhai shrugged, indicating that he understood.
Just as the two of them finished talking, someone else stood up. It was a new customer. They were regular customers. One of them was Ma Wei, a salesman under Wu Anlu. The other was also a young man with a square face. The two of them were chatting happily.
"Fang Chao, the dishes here are really delicious. But it's a little expensive. You pay for it yourself." Ma Wei pointed at the price list and said.
"I didn't expect such a small restaurant could be so expensive." The young man called Fang Chao looked at the price list and felt a little scared.
"I can't help it. The dishes are so delicious." Ma Wei pulled Fang Chao to sit down and then ordered a serving of Egg Fried Rice. Only after that did he turn his head and ask Fang Chao what he wanted to eat.
"I also want Egg Fried Rice." Fang Chao said to Mu Xiaoyun courteously.
After ordering, they started to chat. Ma Wei looked a little unhappy and started to complain.
"You just arrived here and don't know. The old tortoise is the most annoying. You have to be careful," Ma Wei said to Fang Chao, pretending to be serious.
"What's wrong?" Fang Chao tilted his head and listened attentively. As a rookie, he should listen to the senior's experience.
"As a salesman, we don't need to know about those materials at all, but the Old Tortoise still wants us to memorize them and even put them into the performance evaluation. He said that it's to save money for the customers." Ma Wei couldn't stop talking. He was like a Gatling gun, rattling non-stop.
"If we save money for our customers, we will have repeat customers, right?" Fang Chao thought for a while and finally said it.
"What do you mean by repeat customers? Previously, when I brought orders for others, all the decoration companies would try to curry favor with me. But now, they treat me as their enemy and say that I won't help them." Ma Wei waved his hand and revealed a manner of "You don't understand".
"But the company's performance has improved, and the salary has increased, right?" Fang Chao didn't agree with what Ma Wei said, but it wasn't appropriate for him to refute him directly. Therefore, he could only say some benefits to smooth things over.
"It's all because of the Old Tortoise's meddling. I can recite a lot of information about the decoration materials now. Whenever I see any wallpaper or floor tile, I start to calculate the price. He's really crazy," Ma Wei didn't appreciate his kindness and even said indignantly.
"A salesman like you should retire early. You've learned so much knowledge, but you still blame your teacher," Wu Hai suddenly knitted his brows and said to Ma Wei.
"Eh …" Ma Wei was a little embarrassed. After all, he talked behind others' back and even gave him an unpleasant nickname.
"I'm sorry. I was just saying casually. It has nothing to do with you. Of course, I'm not talking to you," Wu Hai looked at Ma Wei discontentedly and said straightforwardly.
After that, he directly walked out of the door without giving Ma Wei any time to retort.
Wu Hai had drunk wine with Wu Anlu several times. His idea was to train his own employees so that they could be independent in the future.
Wu Anlu's good intentions turned out to be ill-intentioned.
Many people always looked down on old people for being old-fashioned. But if being old-fashioned included being grateful, then the young people should really learn from the old people.
When he passed by the door, he happened to see the only rule that Yuan Zhou had hung outside. This sign was, however, a silent communication between two people who had never spoken before.
Wu Hai looked at the sign and then at Ma Wei who was still talking incessantly inside. Then he laughed and straightforwardly went back to his own art studio.
Since Zheng Jiawei, the omnipotent agent, had left, Wu Hai had to go buy the vegetables by himself. As an artist, however, such a small matter was naturally not difficult for him.
Therefore, the dishes that Yuan Zhou saw when he came in the afternoon were some strange combinations.
"What are you going to do by putting the asparagus and broccoli together?" Yuan Zhou pointed at the broccoli and asparagus and asked curiously.
Yuan Zhou indicated that he was really just curious and didn't want to strangle this idiot to death.
"Asparagus soup and stir-fried broccoli," Wu Hai said wittily.
"Good. What do you say about this?" Yuan Zhou pointed at a big pile of coriander and asked.
"This one is fresh and there's even soil in it," Wu Hai stroked his small mustaches and said earnestly.
"It's indeed quite fresh. You can eat it raw tonight," Yuan Zhou also said quite earnestly.
"That's not necessary. It's used for flavoring." Wu Hai indicated that he understood that.
"Ho Ho. Let me teach you the last two dishes and you can learn them," Yuan Zhou didn't bother to argue with Wu Hai, thus he pointed at the asparagus and the green vegetables and said.
"Are you going to make the soup with the asparagus?" Wu Hai asked curiously.
"Um," Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
"That's good." Wu Hai nodded his head with relief. Actually, he really didn't know that the dish was called asparagus when he bought it. He just felt it looked nice and fresh, so he bought it.
Of course, freshness was the most important thing when buying vegetables. Wu Hai knew that.
As a great master of culinary skills, Yuan Zhou definitely wouldn't use his hands if he could teach Wu Hai.
Fortunately, Yuan Zhou had already changed Wu Hai's recognition of color by ingenious methods. Therefore, he didn't need to worry that he would add a pigment to color when he was stir-frying a single vegetable.
"Only the top inch and the middle inch and a half of the asparagus can be eaten. Get rid of the rest." Yuan Zhou began to instruct Wu Hai to pick the vegetables.
"Add some garlic for flavoring. The garlic can only be patted but can't be chopped. Otherwise, the taste will be damaged." Every time he instructed, Yuan Zhou always mentioned some small tricks. Only Wu Hai, who learned painting, didn't care about that. If it were other chefs, they would definitely carry a small notebook with them to record them.
While the teaching was in full swing here, Jiang Changxi was making a phone call at the other side.
"Master Bai, you didn't go out today, did you?" Jiang Changxi didn't see the usual taxi when she went out.
"Oh, it's Little Jiang. I drank a little and didn't go out today." From the other end of the phone came the voice of Master Bai. He seemed quite happy.
"Why are you so happy?" Jiang Changxi asked with a little curiosity.
"Indeed. My wife allowed me to go to Fang Family Pub with my old friend to have a drink today. The taste of the liquor is superb." Master Bai said with a lingering aftertaste.
"How can that Fang Family Pub be as good as the liquor of Boss Yuan? I will treat you to a drink some other day." Jiang Changxi said smilingly.
"Next time, next time." Master Bai answered smilingly.
"What? Are you afraid of your wife's words?" Jiang Changxi teased him.
"Hey Hey. Let's talk about it when there is a chance." Just by smelling the fragrance of the liquor, he knew the liquor of Yuanzhou Shop was the best. Of course, he wanted to have a try.
"Alright. I'm hanging up." After saying that, Jiang Changxi hung up the phone.
"This drunkard doesn't even earn money by drinking." Jiang Changxi shook her head smilingly. She didn't think more and took another taxi home.
