Jiang Xiaokang is an activist. He buys tickets when he says he wants to, and goes straight to the high-speed rail station as soon as he packs his luggage.
As for his wife, he has to check out the accommodation conditions and then consider whether to bring her family members.
By coincidence, Chang Letian also caught this train.
Although things at the hotel were complicated and difficult to keep away from, Master Qian was the top priority! In a hurry, he took two rich and experienced kitchen staff and went straight to Yunqiao Village!
Only when I got in the car did I realize that - well, he was sitting with Jiang Xiaokang!
"Master Jiang!"
When Chang Letian saw him, he was overjoyed at first: "Why are you going out too? Are you in good health? You are always welcome here in Changleju!"
Jiang Xiaokang waved his hand: "No, no, this is a big problem. My body will not be able to return to its previous state for a while. I can only go to the countryside to make a big pot of rice..."
That's what he said, but looking at his happy expression, he obviously thought it would be good to go to the countryside.
Chang Letian frowned and said worriedly: "Is it also Yunqiao Village? Master Qian asked you to go?"
Why did Master Qian's development start to go offline so quickly? Then when he entered the village, could the two employees he brought in a hurry be able to do it?
After thinking about it, he took out his cell phone again - damn it! Time was running out, and it spanned two provinces. He didn't even have time to ask someone to introduce the official...
The worry in his heart became more and more intense, but there was a warm smile on his face: "Master Jiang, we also have lobby food in Changle! After all, it is inconvenient in the village, and maybe the salary is not high... Now our new store is about to open, and we need you.
Such a chef is in charge!"
He means it sincerely.
Although Jiang Xiaokang is not in good health, his experience and vision are still there. Even if he doesn't do any work in the kitchen, he just needs to give guidance to the chefs, and the salary will be worth it!
This is not the first time he has said this. He said it when Jiang Xiaokang was hospitalized.
But it is a pity that when Jiang Xiaokang resigned as soon as he fell ill, he did not persuade him to stop him!
It's good now, I'm afraid I won't be taken by Master Qian to engage in pyramid schemes...
Jiang Xiaokang laughed loudly: "Boss Chang, my body can't bear the burden of cooking in the lobby. I know you take care of me, and you must have advised me to take a rest... But the working hours are much shorter than others, and you still have to dictate.
, when the time comes when the people behind the kitchen are not united, there will be trouble!"
As he spoke, there was also a hint of sadness in his expression: "Besides, although Xiao Shun is a junior, he is more talented than us. Now he is following the master, and when the master retires, he will be able to do the job... I won't go
Adding to the chaos!"
However, Chang Letian thought that every word of advice would be enough, and at this moment he said:
"But cooking in a big pot is tiring! Master Jiang is the only one who relies on you to feed dozens of people. How can you cope with this? Don't be tired again when you look back."
Jiang Xiaokang sighed: "Boss Chang, thank you for thinking about me like this. But this time, besides going to work, the main reason why I went there was because my master said that the soil and water there are good and suitable for recuperation, so he persuaded me."
Jiang Xiaokang is not the kind of person who just takes whatever the master says, but he knows that Master Qian and Xiao Shun will not harm him no matter what!
So what if his salary is only 4,500? His children are all in college, and he has saved money for his house. Nowadays, apart from taking care of his body, everything else comes second.
And I sit at home every day, even if I can go out for a walk, my physical fitness is different, and everyone will talk to me when I go out...
His mood has indeed deteriorated a lot in the past few months.
Master Qian's proposal actually gave him an honest excuse to escape from that environment.
He can still have a salary of 4,500 to cover daily expenses, which makes him feel at ease!
As for saying that big pot dishes are tiring...
In fact, Jiang Xiaokang also did this job when he was young.
The tiring thing about cooking a big pot of food is that I am busy washing and rinsing it from morning to night, and my hands can't stop.
But Master Qian said that there is already a helper. If there are more people coming back to eat, he will hire another one.
When the time comes, the chef won’t have to worry about these chores at all.
The only thing he has to do is to prepare the meal.
In fact, there is still a gap between the hours spent cooking and the hours spent cooking in a hotel lobby, which means he can't hold on for an hour or two.
After thinking about it for two days, he finally made up his mind.
Seeing that Chang Letian couldn't persuade him, he sighed silently at this moment——
In short, if something goes wrong in the village, one of the four big men can always escape no matter how bad things happen, right?
He decided to change his perspective.
At this moment, Jiang Xiaokang also curiously asked: "By the way, Boss Chang, my master praises the vegetables here as being unique in the world. Have you tasted them? Are they really that good?"
He grinned, a little embarrassed:
"It stands to reason that my master is very strict about the dishes and should not exaggerate. But during this period, he has been praising me every day. Xiao Shun also said that he can eat two big bowls in one meal... The more I talk about this, the more I am murmuring in my heart.
.”
What a coincidence, isn’t it!
Chang Letian also nodded excitedly: "Me too. As you know in Changle, as long as the quality is good enough, which of us will try our best to get ingredients from all over the world?"
"And Master Qian, he has done state banquets before! You really have a lot of exposure to top-quality ingredients, right? But this time I am so excited... To tell you the truth, I was also thinking about it, so I was ready to go over and have a look!"
He said half-truthfully, and then successfully saw Jiang Xiaokang's face slowly tightening.
…
But Master Qian, who was trapped in the MLM center, didn’t know anything. He just watched handfuls of sweet potato vines being roughly cut off and chopped into messy pieces, then fed to the pigs...
"What a waste! What a waste!"
If this sweet potato vine is placed in an urban area, it will be very popular regardless of whether it is stir-fried or stir-fried with chili and pork!
After all, these days, the mainstream is that various rural pig-feeding ingredients are healthy!
And now...
He asked Lao Xu again: "You really don't want to eat some sweet potato vines? If you don't eat them, they will have to cut them all to feed the pigs!"
The sweet potatoes haven't grown yet, and the vines are too thick, so they selectively cut off part of them. Master Qian looks at the green leaves and poles entering the pig pen every day, and is reluctant to part with them.
However, Old Xu shook his head wildly: "No, no! Master Qian, we work hard every day and we are all from the village. We really don't care about these sweet potato vines..."
"If you stir-fry it with meat, wouldn't it still be a sweet potato vine? This thing really isn't that delicious. There will definitely be no oil or water when we eat it."
He thought for a while and then added: "By the way, Master Qian, I know you city people like to eat everything. You can sell those Zheergen for five yuan a catty... but we really don't like it!"
"If you feel really uncomfortable, why don't you go stew a pot of soybeans and pig's trotters? Everyone loves that."
