Chapter 167 Picked up the treasure
Luo Li comforted Xu Ying a few more words, which made Xu Ying stop her tears. This kind of thing was a shame for men, especially Xu Zhongqiang had not recovered from this matter. If he kept chasing him and asking him all the time would be counterproductive. He asked Xu Ying to go back and rest first and go back to the house by himself.
Seeing Luo Li come back, Xu Zhongqiang felt embarrassed. He, a big man, was crying here. Luo Li seemed to have nothing happened. He said to Xu Zhongqiang: "Brother Xu, Teacher Xu has to go to class tomorrow. She goes back to rest. You should live in that bed. I am not at home normally. You should stay here for a while. It's getting late. You should go to bed early too."
After Luo Li finished explaining, he gave Xu Zhongqiang a quilt. He climbed on the bed and went to sleep by himself. He was really tired during this period. Luo Li fell asleep without much time after lying on the bed.
He woke up in the morning by the smell of the food. Xu Ying went to study early in the morning and had no time to cook. Usually, Xu's mother cooked, but this morning the aroma of this dish was obviously different from the past.
Luo Li got up and saw Xu Zhongqiang wearing an apron and put a few plates of fried side dishes on the table under the old locust tree in the yard. Xu's mother saw Luo Li getting up and said to him: "Luo Li, wash your face quickly and come over to have a meal."
After washing his face, he sat on the table, and then carefully looked at a few side dishes, cabbage soup, shredded potatoes, and strips of sauce. They were also mixed with pickles. They were all vegetarian dishes, but they were made with color, fragrance and flavor. Luo Li looked at Xu Zhongqiang in surprise.
"Brother Xu, you made this dish!"
Although Xu Zhongqiang was still a little decadent, he was not easy to show his mother in front of him. He just said that he had nothing to do at home and came to see me. The old lady believed it.
"I made it all, Luo Li, eat more!" Xu Zhongqiang was a little embarrassed when he was in front of Luo Li. He felt so distressed when he came last night. He couldn't help but shed tears in front of Luo Li. He was much better in the morning. When he saw Luo Li again, he felt a little embarrassed.
Luo Liquan pretended that nothing happened, and tasted all the side dishes next to each other. The taste was not ordinary, even the chef of the hotel was just like this.
He looked at Xu Zhongqiang and said, "Brother Xu, have you worked as a chef in a restaurant?"
Before Xu Zhongqiang could answer, Xu's mother said, "Zhongqiang has never been a chef in a restaurant, but he has a 'Imperial Chef'."
Luo Li didn't understand, and the old lady explained with a smile: "Our family originally had an old neighbor. His master used to be a chef for the last emperor. He followed his master to be a chef for the royal family at the age of twelve or thirteen. Later, the last emperor was driven out of the Forbidden City. He followed his master out of the palace. In a mess, he got separated from the master.
Later, when he was old, he wanted to return to his hometown. Unexpectedly, our two families became neighbors. The old man had no children in his life. Zhongqiang always ran to him when he was a child. The old man liked Zhongqiang, honest and honest, so he passed on his craft to Zhongqiang."
Luo Li's eyes lit up instantly: "Brother Xu, so, are you the foundation of the imperial chef?"
Xu Zhongqiang smiled honestly: "There is no imperial chef? The master has taught me a lot of things, but I have never made some things he taught. Where did the food come from in my small place? Most of the food is talked about on paper. I am in charge of home-cooked side dishes. In recent years, I have a big and small family in the village. I am the chef in the kitchen."
Luo Li didn't expect Xu Zhongqiang to have such an experience. He was missing a master. He was worried about this these days, but he didn't expect to meet an apprentice of the Imperial Chef.
"Brother Xu, can hot pot be done?"
Xu Zhongqiang said: "What kind of thing are you referring to? Northern or Southern?
"What kind of brother Xu can do?"
Xu Zhongqiang said embarrassedly: "The master has taught me more than a dozen types, and I have all learned from the North and South schools, but many of them have not been practiced. I just remember some ingredients and recipes, which are all memorized by rote, and I have not really practiced them much. You know, in our small place, where can I afford hot pot?"
When Luo Li heard this, he knew that he had picked up a treasure. Although Xu Zhongqiang did not have much practical experience, he had something in his mind, and with the recipe given by the pawn shop, he had no problem in making hot pot soup ingredients with excellent taste.
Although Luo Li didn't have much contact with Xu Zhongqiang, this man was honest and cowardly, but this personality was just a good thing for Luo Li and was more conducive to his control. Moreover, Xu Zhongqiang was Xu Ying's brother-in-law. To put it bluntly, that was his future brother-in-law, and this guy was still very 'recognizable'. He immediately asked, "Brother Xu, how much money can you make in the countryside a year?"
Xu Zhongqiang didn't understand why Luo Li suddenly asked him such a question. He said a little embarrassedly: "The farmyard can't make a lot of money. It costs more than 3,000 yuan a year to farm and work. Fortunately, I have this skill. Anyone who does big things and small things in the village will ask me to take charge of the chef, so I can earn 3,000 or 2,000 yuan a year."
Only then did Luo Li understand why Xu Zhongqiang was able to save a small member for his sister and mother, and it turned out that he had this skill.
He smiled and said, "Brother Xu, let me tell you something. I plan to open a hot pot restaurant in Fengyuan. The store is quite large and lacks a chef. How about you come and help me? The basic salary is 2,000 yuan, the year-end dividends are also a lot of bonuses. I guarantee that you will earn at least 50,000 yuan a year, just to work harder. Are you interested?"
The chopsticks Xu Zhongqiang held in his hand fell on the table.
"You...what did you say? How much money did you give me?" His eyes were about to fall out.
"The monthly salary is 2,000 yuan, and there will be bonuses and dividends at the end of the year!"
Xu Zhongqiang was stunned when he heard this. He was 2,000 yuan a month and 2,000 yuan a year in December. He only had a basic salary of 24,000 yuan, and he also had a bonus and dividend. At least 50,000 yuan a year. Wang Dazhi was engaged in the project and heard that he could earn 50,000 yuan a year. He was so awesome in the village that he even slept with his wife.
Thinking that he could earn so much in a year, could he sleep with his wife? Thinking that he could sleep with Wang Dazhi's wife, Xu Zhongqiang's eyes turned red. In his simple thoughts, his wife let Wang Dazhi sleep with him, and he had to take revenge.
How can we take revenge? That is to sleep with Wang Dazhi's wife, which is equal. But how can we sleep with Wang Dazhi's wife? Xu Zhongqiang has his own ideas. Isn't Wang Dazhi's wife just because he has money? So as long as he has money, can he sleep with Wang Dazhi's wife? Xu Zhongqiang thinks that this is OK, but he doesn't know how to make money.
Now Luo Li suddenly told him that as long as he works with him, he can earn more than 50,000 yuan a year, and Xu Zhongqiang's eyes were red.
"Are you saying true or false? If you really can make so much money, Luo Li, I will not frown when I let me go to the mountain of swords and the sea of fire."
In order to avenge, Xu Zhongqiang didn't care about anything he did.
Xu's mother didn't expect Luo Li to make such a promise to her son. The mother and daughter have been bothering Luo Li for so long, and her son has not done anything, so how could he give him so much money a year?
The old lady said anxiously: "Luo Li, I can't bear to give him that. Why do you give him so much money? You have enough help to our mother and daughter. How can Zhiqiang ask you for so much money? He has 6,000 yuan a year, which is enough for him to make money. I have the final say, so you give him 6,000."
Luo Li smiled and said, "Auntie, you don't have to worry about this matter. How much you give depends on how much contribution Brother Xu can make. Now it is a market economy. More work is more rewarding, less work is less rewarding. As long as Brother Xu pays the corresponding labor, he can earn corresponding wealth. This is a reciprocal relationship. I like his craft. Auntie, don't worry!"
Xu's mother didn't understand where Luo Li fell in love with her son. She, the mother, knew her son best, had no other specialty except knowing how to cook a dish.
"Luo Li, my son is honest and honest. If you like his skills, you can use him. If he dares to be sorry for you, I will slap him with a big ear."
After breakfast, Luo Li took Xu Zhongqiang directly to the hot pot restaurant. The entire hot pot restaurant has been renovated much, and the finishing work is underway.
When Xu Zhongqiang walked in, he was stunned. He couldn't even imagine such a large store. As soon as he came in, he seemed to have entered the "Palace", and he didn't have enough eyes. The key is that Luo Li's hot pot restaurant is decorated too beautifully, giving people a youthful and vigorous feeling, and more magnificent. Anyway, Xu Zhongqiang described it as such.
"Luo Li, is this... store yours?" Xu Zhongqiang was overwhelmed and didn't believe it.
Luo Li led him to the kitchen, which was decorated according to the design plan given by Li Jie. The kitchen templates of five-star hotels in the international world were decorated scientifically and able to make full use of every little space. Xu Zhongqiang was stunned.
Luo Li said: "Brother Xu, this place is where you will work in the future. All the ingredients in the entire hot pot restaurant come from here. Your task is very heavy. You must be responsible for the recipe and confidentiality of the hot pot base, and also for the selection of the entire ingredients. Whether you can retain customers depends on your skills!
Luo Li deliberately put pressure on him, and Xu Zhongqiang gritted his teeth and did not show any timidity: "Luo Li, don't worry, I will take out the skills that the master taught me to see the bottom of the box."
Luo Li smiled. He knew that if such an honest person could say such a thing, it would prove that an honest person would work hard!
He didn't know that Xu Zhongqiang wanted to sleep with Wang Dazhi's wife. He was trying hard. If he didn't sleep, he felt that he would never be able to raise his head in his life!
