Hong Yanwu's persistent pursuit completely blocked Master Pang's path.
No choice, forced by love and feelings, Master Pang could only bite the bullet and step into the door of "Zhang Dashao" personally and entrust Hong Yanwu to him.
But I didn't expect it to be the opposite. This "Zhang Dashao" was as guarded about his craft as an old cat watching a mouse.
Master Pang didn't show any respect to him, so he refused immediately.
"What are you doing, learning skills from me? Zengtai, who said this? You shouldn't say this, right?"
"What? Descendants of the Hong family of 'Yanmei House'? Oh, that's the young master's destiny. How can he be Qinxing? I said you should not let him come before it's too late. They are so expensive that I can't afford it. This should be the dial.
Leng Abacus, the materials for selling meal tickets, can you still hold a big spoon?"
"Ah? The kid is good? The one who can make fried liver? Ah, I didn't expect this. But he is much better, why should he be my apprentice? Besides, it takes time to gain recognition of people's hearts. What you said is too much
It's early. It looks good, you can just stay here by yourself."
"What? He is willing to endure hardship and let me beat him? That's even worse. Now is the new society, everyone is equal, and beating is illegal. Besides, why should he suffer this crime if he is not doing anything but eating? When he said that,
Just listen to it."
"Come on, don't talk nonsense. I just do some hard work here. It's hard to say, but dogs can do it if they can understand human speech. What conditions can he ask me for? Tell him, my old man doesn't
I am blessed to be a master and ask him not to have any ideas about me."
Yes, I dare to love Hong Yanwu and I'm trying to get others to beat me, but I'm not lucky enough yet.
When these words came back, not only Master Pang was embarrassed, but Hong Yanwu himself was also disappointed.
But he thought again, no, he had to persist.
Because asking for help is just a matter of time and effort. As the saying goes, a drop of water wears away a stone. If you are not happy at first, you may become happy in the future.
The key is that such a master can't be found even with a lantern, and considering his age, he won't be able to work for a few more years.
I really want to miss it, otherwise I won’t be able to find such craftsmanship again.
Don’t forget, the key to catering is to have a good cook.
Don’t ever think that as long as you have money, you can hire a good chef.
Because it's not about money at all. If the chef is really good at his craftsmanship, the boss is just an errand boy.
On the other hand, if the chef's skills are not good, the boss will quickly change from a general to a slave.
So the most important thing is that the boss must know his own business.
Only in this way can we suppress the kitchen and keep the sign from falling.
Otherwise, no matter how big you open your store, it will still be "filling holes" and you are just trying to destroy the ancestral brand.
Yes, for the Hong family’s old shop and for my father’s long-cherished wish, I have to keep grinding!
In this way, Hong Yanwu, determined not to give up until he achieved his goal, went to the small canteen to report.
It doesn't matter if he leaves, of course Chen Liquan will follow him.
He would never be separated from Hong Yanwu, and he would not even listen to Hong Yanwu's advice to him not to suffer along with him.
In this way, the two main members of the white crime team in the big cafeteria are gone, and they have all been replaced by the "power workers" of the small cafeteria. Can Master Gou be happy?
Over at the canteen, "Zhang Dashao" looked at the two young brothers making out with each other. It was obvious that the visitors were not good-natured, and his face turned dark.
So there were a lot of complaints from both sides.
But who did Master Pang provoke? Just like that, Zhu Bajie looked in the mirror and he was no longer a human being.
The only person who was happy was the boy who was pushed by Chen Liquan.
He has only been due for three months, and he is about to be "released after serving his sentence" early. Isn't that beautiful?
As a result, during the last week of taking Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan to familiarize themselves with the process, he was humming songs every day, couldn't help smiling, and felt so relaxed.
Of course, through his performance, you can imagine what it's like to be here.
To put it bluntly, the word "bitter" is not false.
No matter how small the canteen is, it is still a kitchen. All the chores are shouldered by two people. How can it be done easily?
Like a daily routine, it is also indispensable.
You have to start by sweeping the yard, sharpening knives, cutting ice, transporting coal, and burning the stove.
Then there are peeling onions, peeling garlic, washing vegetables, mincing ginger, killing chickens and ducks, washing rice, and making soup.
Finally, when lunch is over, it’s time to wash the pots, dishes, rub the spoon, and take out the trash.
Tasks like these may seem simple, but if you don't pay attention, you won't be able to complete them or do them well.
How big the workload is and how demanding Zhang Dashao's requirements are. Let's talk about a few specific things so that we can truly understand.
As the most physically demanding job, "getting on the ice" is the first one.
There were no refrigerators at that time, so everyone's canteen relied entirely on natural ice to be stored in the winter for use in the summer.
"Polar Bear" has an advantage in this regard, as it produces artificial ice itself.
So the big cafeteria has a house with tiles on the floor, a floor drain, and no windows.
Once artificial ice is placed on the iron shelf, it becomes an "earth cold storage".
The ingredients were placed in a basin and placed on ice, and the ice water slipped out through the floor drain.
It's very convenient to change it at any time.
But the small canteen does not have this condition, and the ingredients have to be individually prepared.
Then every day, the kitchen workers have to use ice tongs to carry a piece of ice that is 40 centimeters thick, one square meter in size, and weighs 400 kilograms into the kitchen, and then chops it into six to eight pieces.
After that, it is flattened with a knife, sprinkled with salt, and put into a one-meter-two wooden barrel to preserve the ingredients.
Zhang Dashao also had additional requirements for this job.
It is said that raw meat cannot be placed directly in the barrel against the ice. The meat must be placed in a small jar and then placed in the barrel.
In addition, the jars cannot be placed next to each other. They must be packed with crushed ice and covered with ice to pass the test.
Look, with just a few more sentences, the workload has almost doubled.
In addition to "putting on the ice", the kitchen workers also have to break coal.
Every day, the coal to be burned had to be smashed into "hand-sized pieces", about the size of walnuts.
The coal is not flammable when it is large, and it takes an hour to light a fire.
If it's too small and the stove doesn't have strong firepower, it won't work.
After burning, the furnace pit must be dug out.
The things taken out cannot be poured out first, but the cinders must be sifted out.
This is also the requirement of "Zhang Dashao".
He did not do it to save coal, but because when the cinders are burned again, there is no smoke or smell of coal, which is perfect for making pancakes and so on.
But these are not troubles. The most troublesome thing is to follow Zhang Dashao's request to clean up those guys on the stove.
In the past, coal-burning stoves were very particular, with one main burner and two secondary burners.
The main burner is for cooking, the secondary burner is for "simmering vegetables", and the other is for holding a soup pot.
This is what the so-called cook "three spoons for cooking" means.
Because the mouth of the spoon in serious craftsmanship mostly points to the soup stock, so those who do not bring a soup pot must be wild cooks.
So it can be imagined that the two masters, "Zhang Dashao" and Hua Ying, each have a stove.
Moreover, they don't let others in when they are cooking, so they can't have a kitchen worker standing by and using them whenever they want.
How many pots and pans do you need to cook that meal?
The most important thing is the cleanliness of the stove. "Zhang Dashao" is like a germophobe and cannot tolerate any negligence.
You have to touch it every day. If there is oil or dust, you will definitely be blown away.
But at that time, daily chemicals had not yet been developed, so boiling water and alkaline noodles were all needed to clean pots, so you can imagine how difficult it was.
But this is not over yet, even the order in which the seasonings are stacked is fixed, and there must be no mistake.
"Salt, sugar, flavor, cooking wine, soy sauce and vinegar" must be placed in the order of color "from light to dark", from thin to dry.
He said the reason was to prevent the light-colored salt and sugar from being contaminated by dark-colored seasonings.
So, by analogy, all these trivial requests are gathered together. Is it something that ordinary people can handle?
That requires both quick hands and feet, speed, and meticulousness to ensure quality.
So when they first started working, Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan were bound to be in a hurry and make mistakes.
As a result, they just listened to "Angry".
It must be said that Zhang Dashao's ability to curse is quite impressive.
When he calls you dirty words, that's when he has a good temper.
People with a bad temper no longer use curse words; instead, they use bad words to hurt others.
The so-called harming people is to use the method of concealing the truth with the false, setting off the side, making insinuations, and just one word at the important point, just like killing someone with a knife at the throat.
The more he scolds you, the more he wants to forgive you.
Only this kind of scolding can show that the words he scolded are true and conclusive, making you feel ashamed beyond words.
For example, if you are not satisfied with your work, he can say this to you.
"How can human hands do such a job? Look, not only are you not careless, but you don't have any brains at all. That's right, don't explain it. I know that you are like many people, not intentionally.
Work hard, it's just a habit, right? Since you were a child, you didn't know what clean means, and you can tolerate no matter how dirty or smelly you are. But others may not have the same preferences as you?"
In addition, when he scolds people, he also likes to tell the truth and set up ambushes for you.
For example, when you make a mistake repeatedly, he will deliberately ask you, "Hey, there is a saying, what is the mud, and how did it get on the wall?"
Another example is that he thinks you are slow and stupid, and he asks you deliberately. "Hey, do you know there is an idiom? It is used to describe a person who is very stupid. You can never teach him."
This will not only embarrass you, but also strengthen his power to scold you.
If you don't pay attention and don't hold your tongue, you might actually say words like "the mud can't hold up the wall" or "stupefied" or "stupid".
Then if you're done, he'll catch you even more.
At that time, I must have said a long "Oh!" and then said it to you very politely.
"Well, young people are good, educated, and know a lot. This is teaching by words and deeds. Thank you, looking at you, I really understand this word."
That's so sharp that it hurts your skin.
Is it any wonder that others can't stand his annoyance?
Meeting such a man will definitely cast a shadow for a lifetime.
To be honest, this pain lies not only in the torture inflicted by "Zhang Dashao", but also in the desire to suppress oneself and always want to strangle this old guy to death.
