After walking around two streets, Ye Guhong could already see the entrance of a house not far away. It was bustling with people, many of whom were still trying their best to squeeze in.
"Is the Jueying Sect recruiting disciples here?" Ye Guhong hurriedly rushed closer and suddenly felt something was wrong.
Most of the people gathered around were middle-aged women and strong men. Judging from their body shape and appearance, they should not have practiced cultivation.
But the direction indicated by the hexagram is obviously around here.
Ye Guhong was completely stunned now. When he came to the back of the crowd, he saw a middle-aged woman who had not squeezed in for a long time and was leaving dejectedly. He hurriedly went over and asked: "Auntie, what is going on here?"
What? Why are so many people vying to squeeze in?"
The woman sighed: "Of course the Jueying Sect is recruiting servants. It's my fault that I'm late."
"How could recruiting servants attract so many people? How could Jueying Sect suddenly recruit so many servants?"
The woman glanced at Ye Guhong doubtfully and said matter-of-factly: "Jueying Sect's price is high, and they won't scold us poor people harshly. Naturally, everyone wants to go there. This time, we suddenly recruited so many handymen.
It seems that it was for some conference or party, I forgot.”
The woman said and left with a sigh.
Ye Guhong suddenly realized that the Jueying Sect held a ‘Destroy the Beast Conference’ and if many guests were invited to the mountain, of course they would have to arrange some servants to take care of these guests’ daily chores such as eating, cleaning and so on.
Thinking of this, Ye Guhong's eyes suddenly lit up
In the past two years, Ye Guhong has often helped Jin's cook, and he has been influenced by it. Moreover, Jin does not hide his good cooking skills at all, so Ye Guhong's cooking skills have also learned 70% to 80% of Jin's.
about
With such skills, wouldn't it be easy to fool a cook? If you sneak into the Jueying Sect first, you will naturally have the opportunity to meet those few people who know you.
Thinking of this, Ye Guhong, who was originally extremely disappointed, regained hope.
Just as he was about to squeeze into the mansion, a young boy wearing a Jueying Sect warrior uniform appeared at the door. He raised his hand to calm down the chaotic crowd, and then said loudly: "Everyone, we have recruited you.
For all handymen, if there is still demand in the future, we will continue to recruit here. I’m sorry today.”
As soon as the words came out, there were a lot of complaints. Some people cursed, but they didn't dare to raise their voices.
The young man didn't care, and watched the crowd evacuate with an apologetic smile.
The crowd gradually dispersed, and just when the young man was about to turn around and go back, Ye Guhong hurried forward and shouted: "Wait a minute!"
The young man turned around and saw Ye Guhong, still with a slight smile: "Little brother, is something okay?"
Ye Guhong deliberately slumped down, with a dazed expression on his face, and murmured: "I want to work, be a cook."
"Oh, I'm sorry, little brother, we have hired more than a dozen cooks this time."
Ye Guhong shook his head: "No, I want to work and make money."
The young man frowned slightly, as if he could see Ye Guhong's demented look.
Ye Guhong continued: "If I can't make money, my mother will be unhappy."
"Well, I also want to help you, but this is..." the young man muttered for a moment, "How about this, I will help you introduce a handyman in the city."
Ye Guhong saw that this young man had a good heart and knew that he had a chance. He hurriedly summoned his spiritual energy to force tears from his eyes: "All the shopkeepers in the city despise me and say that I am stupid. In fact, A Niu is not stupid, he is just very stupid.
Cows are also very obedient and won’t cause trouble.”
When the young man saw that Ye Guhong started crying without saying a few words, his heart softened and he quickly pulled Ye Guhong into the door.
Because at this moment, all the people around who have come to apply for handyman jobs are not gone yet. If they are found begging for mercy, there is a chance of being recruited. Then it will be chaos.
After being pulled into the courtyard, the young man shouted loudly: "Brother Zhu, come out!"
Not long after, a tall, bald man about thirty years old walked out of the house next to him and asked, "What's going on?"
The young man whispered something into Senior Brother Zhu's ear. Senior Brother Zhu frowned and said, "We already have thirteen cooks, do we need to recruit more?"
Ye Guhong bent down and said with a trembling voice: "If I can't go to Jueyingmen, I will never see my wife again in the future, please."
This sentence is absolutely true
The young man said: "Senior Brother Zhu, thirteen and fourteen are about the same, so please help him."
Senior Brother Zhu frowned and whispered: "But look at him like this... can he cook?"
Ye Guhong hurriedly raised his head and said, "Let me make a dish to try. It's delicious."
Senior Brother Zhu said simply: "Okay, let's talk about it first. If the food you make doesn't taste good, you can't pester us anymore."
Ye Guhong nodded excitedly and said to himself, no matter how delicious the delicacies are, you still have to surrender to my craftsmanship.
In fact, when we were recruiting handymen just now, we were also in the process of testing our cooking skills. Now we still have a lot of kitchen utensils and ingredients left, so we can cook immediately.
After washing his hands and putting on his apron, Ye Guhong took a quick look at the ingredients on the chopping board and already had a pretty good idea.
Grabbing a piece of lean pork, Ye Guhong patted it gently, ostensibly to make the meat soft and smooth, but in fact, Ye Guhong secretly used his slight blade aura to cut all the fibers of the piece of meat along the lines.
This invisible knife technique can secretly process meat because the spiritual energy can penetrate into any minute part of the meat and process it to perfection.
Beat for a while, then cut into shreds and seasoned
Chop the soaked fungus and green and red pepper into shreds
Since the meat has been specially processed to highlight the tenderness and smoothness of the meat, Ye Guhong uses very light seasonings.
Stir-fry in boiling oil. First, cook the delicate shredded meat until cooked, then simply stir-fry the ingredients. Finally, just add a little salt and pepper and other necessary seasonings, and it is ready.
Senior Brother Zhu and the young man looked on and shook their heads secretly, thinking that if someone doesn't know how to put in seasonings, how can the food they make be delicious?
Senior Brother Zhu took a bite with chopsticks, prepared to swallow it by force, and then sent Ye Guhong away.
Who would have thought that as soon as this shredded pork was put into the mouth, it would emit a rich and fresh aroma, including nine parts of the meat aroma and one part of the oil aroma. The combination was so ingenious.
The most shocking thing is that the simple seasoning penetrates into every corner of the meat, evenly distributed even with just a little bit of minced meat, and has a light salty and peppery flavor.
The reason why the meat is so smooth and fragrant is of course due to Ye Guhong’s blade aura.
Seeing the stupid look on Senior Brother Zhu's face, the kind-hearted young man was also slightly stunned. He took a bite and immediately stayed there.
After a long time, Senior Brother Zhu sighed softly and said: "I will go to Jueyingmen in the afternoon. Will you be willing to be paid two taels of silver a month?"
Ye Guhong was overjoyed, nodded crazily and thought, even if you ask me to pay you back, I will do it.
Despite all the hardships, Ye Guhong was finally able to step into the world's number one sect, the Jueying Sect.
