In the kitchen of Zhiweixuan, Comrade Xu is preparing dishes and cooking a pot of lamb and scorpions.
It is said that his work at Zhiweixuan has been quite leisurely in recent months, because in summer there are very few people eating the whole lamb feast. Every day at noon, there are usually only a few tables of guests ordering a few dishes from the whole lamb feast.
If Tongdao Xu hadn't had to work in his shop every night, with his leisurely work and good food at Zhiweixuan in the past few months, he might have gained ten pounds.
By the way, it has been more than a year since he was reborn. Probably because the food was good, he is no longer as thin as when he was first reborn.
Judging from his body shape, he is already an out-and-out young man.
A few days ago, he bought a razor and shaved the hair around his mouth. Now, except that he still looks a little tender, overall he is no different from an adult.
Upper middle in height.
Body shape... although still slightly thin, but just a little bit thinner.
If you look at his calm and reserved eyes... you may feel that he is already mature.
Comrade Xu, who was roasting sheep and scorpions, suddenly heard Zhang Chang's voice coming from behind him, "Xiao Xu, are you busy?"
Comrade Xu looked back and saw Zhang Fafa looking at him with a smile.
Usually, Zhang Chang rarely comes to the kitchen, and sometimes he doesn’t come to the kitchen even once for several days in a row.
Today he suddenly came to see him, Comrade Xu, obviously because he had something to say.
And Tongdao Xu also knew what he wanted to say.
"Mr. Zhang, wait for me for a few minutes! I'll be there soon!"
"Okay! You go about your business first."
…
A few minutes later, Comrade Xu raised his legs, turned off the hot stove with his knees, picked up a small half pot of sheep and scorpions, put it on the clay pot not far away, simmered it over low heat, covered the pot, put down the frying spoon, and picked it up.
He lowered his apron from his waist and walked back with a smile. When he passed the desk, he picked up a rag and wiped his hands. Then he extended his hand to Zhang Fang, who had been waiting there, and motioned to go outside.
Zhang Fang smiled back.
The two of them came to the open space outside the kitchen one after the other.
Comrade Xu took out his cigarettes, handed one to Zhang Fang, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, do you have any good news for me?"
Zhang Changshang took the cigarette but did not light it. He nodded slightly, "I have discussed the plan you told me with Lao Hou. Five years is too long, three years at most! If you agree, this matter can be done like this
Once it’s settled, what do you think?”
Comrade Xu was not surprised.
He had previously told Zhang Fafa about five years, which originally left room for Zhang Fafa to bargain. Three years was actually his expectation.
But, at this time, of course he has to try again, what if it works?
Therefore, he chuckled and said, "At least four years! Mr. Zhang, this is my bottom line!"
Zhang Sheng laughed and shook his head, "Xiao Xu! We are not selling side dishes, so don't bargain like this. Besides, you also know that in the legend of the hungry wolf, most of the shares belong to Lao Hou, and I don't hold much of the shares there.
Lao Hou is already giving me a lot of face by agreeing to give you three years. Please don't make it too difficult for me, okay? Otherwise, it will be three years as promised! In addition, I will give you another ten thousand yuan, which is
I express my utmost sincerity. If you can agree, then we will settle this matter. If you think it is not possible, then...hehe, there is nothing I can do."
No room for bargaining over the number of years?
But an extra ten thousand yuan is not bad.
Comrade Xu did not continue to pester, but simply extended his right hand and said, "Happy cooperation! Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Fafa smiled, stretched out his hand and shook his hand.
"Happy cooperation, to be honest, Xiao Xu! If it weren't for the fact that my ancestors made whole-sheep feasts, and our family's whole-sheep feast cooking skills have been lost, I have always wanted to make up for this regret, and I wouldn't have been able to do it again.
I’ll give you an extra 10,000 yuan!”
Tongdao Xu grinned and nodded.
He didn't know how much of Zhang Sheng's words were true and how false, so let's just take what he said as true!
Anyway, the conditions have been negotiated and all that is left is to sign the contract. To Comrade Xu, what Zhang Fa said is not important at all.
In the afternoon of that day, Zhang Fafa and Xu Tongdao came to Shazhou County together and came to the office on the second floor of Legend of the Hungry Wolf. Together with Hou Jinbiao, the three of them signed a new agreement.
The agreement stipulates that Xu Tongdao will hand over his skills in making the whole sheep feast, Zhiweixuan will pay him 10,000 yuan, and Daolin's barbecue dishes can continue to be sold in the form of takeout for three years in Legend of the Hungry Wolf.
In addition, this agreement also stipulates that during the period of the agreement, Xu Tongdao will serve as the consultant of Zhiweixuan's whole sheep feast. When Zhiweixuan needs it, he, as a consultant, has the responsibility to help guide the production of the whole sheep feast without salary.
However, both parties agreed that he would not go to Zhiweixuan for guidance more than five times a year.
No more than half a day at a time.
Of course, the specific terms of the agreement must be more than these.
I won’t list them all in detail here.
The agreement was signed, and Comrade Xu held his copy of the agreement with a smile on his face.
Hou Jinbiao's expression was a little lazy. This matter had nothing to do with him in the first place. If he was not the big boss of Legend of the Wolf, and Xu Tongdao's barbecue restaurant was close enough to his Legend of the Wolf, today's agreement would not be possible at all.
Nothing happened to him.
Zhang Chang's expression was the most satisfied.
She also felt a little emotional, "Oh! It's a pity that my mother left a little early, otherwise she would be very happy if she knew about our Zhang family's Zhiweixuan and mastered the art of making whole sheep feast."
Hou Jinbiao laughed, "That's easy! You can buy some paper money later, burn it on your mother's grave, and tell her about it, right?"
Xu Tongdao: "..."
Zhang Fang nodded, "You're right! This is a good idea!"
…
Starting from the second day after the agreement was signed, Xu Tongdao began to teach his skills in making whole sheep feast at Zhiweixuan.
The person Zhang Fa arranged to learn the art of whole-sheep banquet was a middle-aged master named Zhang.
Tongdao Xu has never seen him before.
Zhang Fafa introduced that Master Zhang was his cousin who was transferred from Zhiweixuan No. 1 branch.
Comrade Xu didn't care about this person's identity. Anyway, since he had decided to sell the whole sheep banquet craftsmanship to Zhang Fafa, he would teach no matter who Zhang Fafa arranged to learn from him.
The ones who were dumbfounded were Jiang Jinsong, who had been preparing dishes for Xu Tongdao since he came to Zhiweixuan, and Wei Xiaokun, who was making lotus.
Beforehand, neither of them expected that Comrade Xu would suddenly make such a move.
There are actually some spoon chefs who are willing to completely hand over their special skills to other spoon chefs?
Not only have they seen this, they have never heard of it before.
Therefore, after learning about this incident, both of them felt bad.
Fortunately, Tongdao Xu still remembered his previous promise to them, and found an opportunity to say to them privately: "When I teach Master Zhang these days, you two should also come over and listen more and watch more! In the end, you will learn something."
How much depends on your abilities!"
In order to stabilize them, Xu Tongdao promised to teach them how to make a whole sheep feast.
