Chapter 183 An Old Man's Ambition (2600 Monthly Pass
Sun Quan still laughed and shook his head. He didn't believe that Yuan Shuiqing was so sure that Luo Na liked him, because he firmly believed that Luo Na could not like him, it was impossible!
But he didn't continue to argue with Yuan Shuiqing. He had no idea about Lorna anyway, and he wouldn't be able to do so in the future, so what did Yuan Shuiqing think about it? Time would let her understand that her judgment today was wrong.
He regarded Yuan Shuiqing's determination in this matter as Yuan Shuiqing's immaturity in the relationship between men and women, and thought she was quite cute like this.
"Okay, whatever you say! Shall I take you back first?"
"Well, you drive!"
Seeing that he no longer refuted, Yuan Shuiqing did not continue the topic just now, but there was still a smile on her lips.
…
It's 8:30 this evening.
99 Braised Chicken Old Shop.
It was closing time. Chef Liu Guangfu had already changed his clothes and came out of the kitchen with a packing box. When he passed the bar, he handed 7 yuan to Zhang Juanjuan at the bar, "Juanzi! I'll bring a braised chicken."
Go back and drink, keep the money!"
Zhang Juanjuan glanced at the packing box in his hand, smiled and took the money, "Master Liu, you will enjoy it! You have often brought food back for drinks in the past two months! Your wife doesn't talk about you?"
Liu Guangfu chuckled and walked out of the store, laughing at the cowhide: "Hey! She dares to talk about me? I'm busy all day long, and she still talks about me when I go back to drink some wine at night? Lend her some courage!"
Zhang Juanjuan at the bar couldn't help laughing.
The waiter Qu Li, who was just about to go to the kitchen to change clothes, couldn't bear it. She sneered directly, obviously not believing in Liu Guangfu's reputation.
Liu Guangfu lives not far away and walks to and from get off work every day, and it's the same tonight.
Carrying a packing box in one hand and a cigarette in the other, he walked home at a leisurely pace. His brows were furrowed along the way, probably because he was worried, and he smoked one cigarette after another.
About ten minutes later, he walked through an alley and came to the second-floor door of a self-built building. He took the key and opened the door, turned on the light, put the packing box he brought back on the Eight Immortals table, and breathed.
Feeling sullen, he walked to the kitchen next to the main room.
Take out a large soup bowl covered with plastic wrap from the refrigerator, go to the liquefied gas stove, turn on the stove, pour a portion of the vegetable in the large soup bowl into the pot, cover the pot, and cook over low heat.
During this process, the cigarette between his left fingers remained unextinguished and he puffed from time to time.
Time passed little by little amidst the whirring sound of the liquefied gas stove, and the aroma of chicken gradually began to fill the kitchen.
At this moment, the bedroom door on the other side of the hall rang, and footsteps were heard walking toward the kitchen. Liu Guangfu tilted his head slightly, but did not turn around or make a sound.
After a while, footsteps stopped at the door of the kitchen, and his wife's voice came, "Old Liu, are you still trying today?"
Liu Guangfu hummed.
Her wife's voice was filled with helplessness, "You have tried so many times in the past few months, and you have wasted a lot of money. How long will you continue to try? Your family is not well off."
Liu Guangfu puffed on his cigarette again, and when he turned around, he already had a smile on his face, "Daughter-in-law! It's almost here! Don't worry, you can try it with me later. I think it's almost done. If you think
Okay, then today is the last time!"
His wife... looks to be in her early thirties at most.
And Liu Guangfu is already over forty.
This woman takes good care of herself, so she looks fair and pretty, and Liu Guangfu doesn't smoke or drink alcohol. He faces the stove and fireworks all the time. He is in his early forties and has wrinkles all over the place. It seems that these two people are not beautiful.
Like a pair, but they are exactly the same.
I wonder how this guy hooked up with this widow in the first place?
Of course, this is not important.
A few minutes later, Liu Guangfu opened the lid of the pot, looked at it, turned off the heat, and put all the chicken in the pot back into the big soup bowl.
Holding the soup bowl with both hands, he brought it close to his nose and smelled it. He smiled with satisfaction and said, "Well, it smells really good!"
After saying that, he strode towards the kitchen door and said as he walked: "Let's go! Wife! Come with me and try!"
The woman smiled helplessly, stepped aside to open the kitchen door, and let him come out first. Then she followed him to the Eight Immortals table, and skillfully opened the braised chicken that Liu Guangfu had just brought back. There were two pairs of disposable chopsticks next to the packing box.
One pair for each person.
Liu Guangfu first tasted a piece of braised chicken he brought back from the store, and at the same time used his chopsticks to signal the woman to eat too.
But the woman stretched out her chopsticks and ate a piece of chicken that he had just cooked.
Liu Guangfu swallowed the chicken in his mouth and asked her: "How is it? Are you making progress?" He looked expectant.
But the woman shook her head slightly and sighed: "I think it's still the same, there is no progress."
"Really? How is it possible? I changed two kinds of seasonings this afternoon..."
Liu Guangfu frowned and said, and quickly took a piece of the chicken he had just cooked and put it in his mouth, chewing it. He looked at the woman suspiciously, "Are you sure the taste is not improved? You didn't lie to me, did you?"
The woman's expression became increasingly helpless, "You don't even believe me? What good does it do me to lie to you? Don't I want you to open your own shop and earn more? If you can't taste it, you still don't believe me!"
The woman was a little unhappy.
Liu Guangfu frowned and spit out the bones in his mouth, then picked up another piece of chicken and put it in his mouth, tasting it carefully.
When the woman saw it, she looked to the side helplessly and sighed: "Why are you trying? You drink and smoke every day, and your mouth has long since lost its taste. You still don't believe me when I say you haven't made any progress!"
Liu Guangfu looked at her, his face a little hesitant.
Suddenly he cursed in a cold voice: "You idiot! That kid must have lied to me! What is Papijiang? I have almost searched all the dry goods stores nearby and can't buy it at all! Even the owners of other dry goods stores said they have never heard of it.
What kind of Papijiang is this?"
The woman couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Are you stupid? You already know that they lied to you, but you still stupidly go around asking about Papi Jiang? Besides, people tell you the name of the sauce so easily? You are stupid, why?
Treat others as stupid as you!"
Liu Guangfu was speechless.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked: "Hey! Let me ask you, if you don't compare it with the braised chicken in our store, what do you think of my chicken? Does it taste good?"
The woman looked up at him, frowned and asked, "Why do you ask?"
Liu Guangfu frowned, with an impatient tone in his tone, "Don't ask this yet, just tell me that the taste is okay? If you don't want to compare it with the ones in our store!"
The woman thought for a while and nodded slightly, "If it doesn't compare, the taste is not bad. What's wrong?"
Liu Guangfu raised his hand and touched his head. He thought for a long time, then suddenly slapped his thigh and shouted: "It's done! I've been researching it for several months. Since I can't figure out the smell of our store, I won't do it."
Now, just sell it according to the method I have researched now! I don’t believe it, it must be bad if the taste is different? I still don’t believe this evil! I will resign tomorrow! Then I will find a suitable store! At worst, I will turn the store
Choose a place far away from that guy’s shop. As long as the taste is good, are you afraid that no one will eat it? The price is not expensive!”
The woman was startled by the sudden sound of him slapping her thigh, but after hearing what he said, she was a little moved and her eyes shone slightly, "Old Liu! What you said... seems to make sense."
"Haha, right? You think it makes sense, right?"
When Liu Guangfu heard what she said, he immediately became happy.
The woman also smiled and nodded, "Well, that makes sense!"
So, Liu Guangfu got up excitedly, walked around, and thought a little excitedly: "Why didn't I think of this earlier! If I had thought of this earlier, maybe our store would have been opened long ago, hehe,
With just those three dishes, that guy has opened two branches now, and is about to open a third branch! Well, I can't wait any longer! If I wait any longer, the better locations will be taken by that guy.
The branch has occupied the market, well... I have to hurry! While there are not many branches now, I have to pick a good place and open our store as soon as possible. Hehe, if it goes well, maybe next year we
I can open another branch at home, daughter-in-law! Let me tell you, don’t forget that guy’s store is not big, but if you make money, I tell you! It’s not cost-effective for me to work for him!”
The woman smiled and nodded, "How can a part-time worker earn more than a boss? You told me last year that you wanted to learn those dishes and open our own shop. I supported your idea at that time. If you hadn't figured out the recipe,
, I have already paid you to open a store."
…
The couple were both in a good mood at this time, and they were very happy with what you said and what I said.
A few minutes later, Liu Guangfu looked at the woman, frowned slightly, and sighed, "Oh! Our son is still young, you have to take him with you every day, otherwise we won't have to spend money to hire anyone to open this shop!"
When it comes to this, the woman is helpless, "There's nothing we can do about it, the child can't get rid of it. By the way, if we hire someone, we have to hire someone who can do it. Do you have a suitable candidate?"
Liu Guangfu frowned and scratched his head, and subconsciously lit another cigarette. After taking two puffs, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said happily: "Yes! The current waiter named Qu in our store is about the same age as you. He works smoothly and can speak well.
!How about I ask her before I resign tomorrow to see if she is willing to have sex with me?"
The woman frowned and looked at him with a bit of doubt in her eyes, "About my age? Are you attracted to her?"
Liu Guangfu snorted and curled his lips, "What are you talking about? I'm interested in someone who is about your age? Then you say it yourself! A girl in her twenties, or an aunt in her forties or fifties, can do things in three ways?
A teenage woman is nimble?"
The woman frowned and thought for a while, then said helplessly: "It seems true."
She no longer objected, but Liu Guangfu did not become happy, but said distressedly: "However, that woman usually doesn't deal with me very much. If she wants to do it with me, I'm afraid I have to give her a higher salary..."
