Chapter 231 Another big deal comes(1/2)
The quality of fish meat can directly affect the eating experience, but it is the first time that Wu Youwei has encountered such a big change like the fish provided by Xu Weiguo!
Wu Youwei discussed this point with the master chefs at Diaoyutai more than once, and finally came to the conclusion that Xu Weiguo himself is a person with superb cooking skills. This has long been confirmed. Xu Weiguo's cooking skills are not only superb, but also comparable to
Royal Chef!
As a master of cooking skills, he is very good at selecting ingredients, so the quality of the fish that passes through his hands is so high!
This has also been confirmed by the news that came out after Xu Weiguo entered the special donation department!
This news came from the Imperial Kitchen. It is said that a new purchasing cadre has come to the Special Supply Department. The quality of the ingredients he purchases is absolutely unparalleled, from vegetables to aquatic products!
No need to think about this person, Wu Youwei also knew it was Xu Weiguo!
So why do people in Diaoyutai know the news about the Imperial Kitchen? The reason is also very simple, that is because many of the imperial chefs first worked in the Diaoyutai and then entered the Imperial Kitchen after completing their work!
So the connection between them is still very close.
Every time he hears this kind of news, Wu Youwei regrets it from the bottom of his heart!
We should have tried every means to keep Xu Weiguo in Diaoyutai from the beginning. If that were the case, Diaoyutai would never be in the current situation!
Xu Weiguo smiled and said: "Manager Wu, you'd better just tell me how you want me to help you!"
Wu Youwei suddenly became energetic and said quickly: "Chief Xu, I only have one idea now, and that is that you can provide us with ingredients again without violating organizational disciplines!"
"This time we not only want fish, vegetables, fruits... whatever the restaurant needs, we want it!"
Hearing this, Xu Weiguo frowned instantly, "Manager Wu, you should know that I work in the special provision department now, and my status is quite special... Just what you said is a violation of discipline!"
"In the eyes of others, I am just relying on my position to open a back door for you. This is a serious problem!"
The hope that was ignited in Wu Youwei's eyes dimmed instantly. As the manager of Diaoyutai, he naturally knew the seriousness of this matter.
"Hey~ The quality of the ingredients you purchased is so good, what a pity!"
"I know this is really embarrassing for you, so... I can only..."
After saying that, Wu Youwei planned to leave.
Xu Weiguo thought for a while and said slowly: "It's not that there is no chance for this matter, but this time I don't want money, but some old things..."
Huh!?
Wu Youwei suddenly turned around, his expression looking extremely complicated, including joy, confusion, shock...
In fact, before arriving, Wu Youwei had already made mental preparations. The situation in Diaoyutai must be improved, otherwise his job as a manager would be over.
The special supply department is definitely a fate-determining existence for a restaurant. It can be said that there is no restaurant manager in Sijiucheng who does not want to get involved with the special supply department!
Just think about it, if you can get the top ingredients through the special supply channel, then the competitive strength of this restaurant will be infinitely amplified. Everyone is a top chef, but if there is a gap in the ingredients, the final dishes will still be different.
Gap!
But there are very few people who can establish a relationship!
And Xu Weiguo is definitely the person that major hotels and restaurants want to fawn over the most. Although Xu Weiguo is just a newcomer who has just joined the special service department, he has easily conquered the imperial chef in the imperial dining room these few times. This news has long been spread in major hotels.
It spread among hotel managers!
And Wu Youwei was also keenly aware of the opportunity here.
And compared to other hotels and restaurants, he has a unique advantage. First of all, he and Xu Weiguo have worked together before, and they get along very happily and trust each other. In addition, Diaoyutai is a state-owned store, and the Special Supply Department has also cooperated with Diaoyutai.
, can find reasons to cooperate!
Therefore, he is sure to convince Xu Weiguo both publicly and privately!
But what Wu Youwei didn't expect was that Xu Weiguo agreed, but he didn't want money, he wanted old items.
He naturally knows what old objects are.
Suddenly he became a little confused.
Xu Weiguo explained with a smile: "Manager Wu, the old things I want are mainly books, ancient scrolls, ceramic bottles and other cultural heritage items. Although my little girl is still young, she has begun to enlighten. My Chinese culture is broad and profound.
I plan to let her have more exposure to these and cultivate her sentiment!"
"Fortunately, Xiaoya is also very smart, so I have to be more considerate."
Ran Qiu also came to assist at this time, "Xiaoya is indeed smarter than children of the same age. Being exposed to these in advance can cultivate her cultural literacy!"
Wu Youwei nodded, "Chief Xu, I can understand the thoughts of a parent, but this old thing... is not easy to get rid of now..."
I am even more excited in my heart. Use old objects to improve cultural literacy or cultivate sentiment? Although it makes sense, it sounds weird.
If you want old items, I will give you the money directly and you can use the money to buy them. Why go through all the trouble!
At this moment, Xu Weiguo spoke again, "Ahem, Manager Wu, I really hope that my daughter will be successful in the future, so I'm going to train her more now. It's a bit embarrassing to say that Du Yue and I have been married for so long.
, I only have one daughter, Xiaoya. Other people have several children, and they have people to accompany each other, but my Xiaoya seems a little lonely!"
Huh?!
At first, everyone thought that Xu Weiguo was stating a fact, but after hearing this sentence, they immediately determined that Xu Weiguo was actually talking nonsense!
Especially Lou Xiaoe and Ran Qiu, they almost rolled their eyes!
It is true that Xu Xiaoya has no younger siblings, but it is absolutely nonsense to say that she is lonely.
Have you ever seen a child who is alone with his godmother and great-grandmother during the day and his parents at night?
Besides, you and Du Yue are still young. If you have a few more children in two years, Xu Xiaoya will naturally not be alone!
Wu Youwei also wanted to complain about Xu Weiguo saying that Xu Xiaoya was lonely, but he just grumbled in his heart and did not say it out loud. After all, he came to beg Xu Weiguo today!
Du Yue nodded cooperatively, with a guilty look on her face, "Manager Wu, you don't know, Wei Guo and I have to go to work during the day, and we can only spend time with Xiaoya at night. Sometimes I really feel sorry for the child!"
Wu Youwei almost got up and left.
Good guy! Are you sorry for your child?
Whose family is not like this now! Everyone is busy making a living, and it is unfair during the day, so how can we feed the family!
Your tone of voice is too tragic!
But...Wu Youwei also had to admit that what Xu Weiguo and Du Yue said made sense. Everyone was making money to support their families, so the time spent with their children was reduced. It was true that they were making money to support their families, but it was also true that they lacked the time to accompany their children.
So raising children well is indeed the right way!
Xu Weiguo said seriously: "I am not doing this to make Xiaoya a very successful person, I just hope that her starting point will not be lower than anyone else!"
"At the same time, I also hope that she can see more, appreciate more good things, and grow up happily. This is enough!"
"Many old objects carry the crystallization of our Chinese culture and wisdom. There is nothing wrong with taking a look at these more now!"
After hearing this, Wu Youwei was convinced.
Lou Xiao'e and Ran Qiu were also convinced. They thought Xu Weiguo was talking nonsense just now, but now they also agree with Xu Weiguo's statement.
Xu Weiguo smiled and said: "I know that Diaoyutai is an elegant place. Many social celebrities and literati like to go to Diaoyutai for gatherings and meals. When communicating, they will inevitably bring out famous works and paintings to appreciate, and even use these calligraphy and calligraphy treasures.
Books can be used as credit or something!"
"So, I just want to..."
Before he finished speaking, Wu Youwei completely understood what Xu Weiguo was thinking.
At the same time, I also sighed in my heart that Xu Weiguo really knew a lot about restaurants. It is true that there are often literati and celebrities who use their calligraphy treasures, calligraphy and paintings, books and other old objects to offset their debts. This kind of thing is not a shameful thing in the eyes of those literati. On the contrary, they think
This is an elegant thing!
Over time, Diaoyutai has really accumulated a lot of calligraphy and paintings, and these calligraphy and paintings have been well placed!
Wu Youwei is not one of those ignorant people. These calligraphy and paintings are all left by celebrities and literati. Some of them are old objects, and some are newly written. But I can't guarantee that he will become famous that day. Let's draw these calligraphy
The child becomes valuable!
He originally thought that no one would notice, but he didn't expect that Xu Weiguo and him thought of going together!
But saving the Diaoyutai was more important now. Wu Youwei gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, then you can follow me to the warehouse to make selections!"
Xu Weiguo smiled and said: "That's just right!"
Wu Youwei thought for a while and then said: "Chief Xu, do you think this will work? I'll ask you to help purchase ingredients every month. You can choose a calligraphy and painting from me that month. As for the money needed for the purchase, Diaoyutai will pay for it."
If you pay, I will give you an additional hard-earned fee!"
Xu Weiguo immediately looked at Wu Youwei with a serious expression.
This sight made Wu Youwei feel frightened and panicked.
"Chief Xu, are you... dissatisfied with the conditions I gave?" Wu Youwei asked nervously.
Xu Weiguo replied seriously: "Manager Wu, because of our relationship, I agree to help you. The calligraphy and painting are just a reason to set up a threshold. Otherwise, what will other hotels think?"
"Let's not talk about money. If you give me more money, the nature of this will change!"
Hearing this, Wu Youwei blushed with shame.
Xu Weiguo continued: "The purpose of finding famous calligraphers, paintings, and books is for Xiaoya to receive cultural influence. For me, it is already a big advantage!"
"That's it, it's settled!"
Wu Youwei became even more ashamed. Xu Weiguo's mind and structure were really beyond his comparison. No wonder he could directly enter the special institution!
