“Thank you, head chef Yuan.” Qiu Ji said.
“Thank you, head chef Yuan, for being willing to give us another chance.” Cui Hang said.
The two of them looked at each other again, then lowered their heads and spoke together.
“I’m sorry for last time. We were too narrow-minded. ” Cui Hang and Qiu Ji apologized in a serious tone.
“Yes.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head to show his acceptance.
Qiu Ji and Cui Hang weren’t awkward people. After they apologized, they felt much better when they saw Yuan Zhou accept their apology.
“Thank you, head chef Yuan. Please have a taste.” Qiu Ji immediately took out the chopsticks prepared in the lunchbox and handed them to Yuan Zhou.
Yuan Zhou received the chopsticks and started to eat directly.
The stir-fried Osmanthus bass made by Qiu Ji this time was indeed one-third thinner than the last time. The fish slices were crystal clear, and one could even vaguely see the bottom of the bowl.
When he picked up the fish slice with his chopsticks, it swayed on the chopsticks but didn’t break. Yuan Zhou then directly ate it up.
The fish slices were smooth, tender, and delicious, but they melted in the mouth. The fish skin was a little tender and chewy.
“There’s a natural fishy smell in the delicacy, but this fishy smell doesn’t destroy the deliciousness of the fish. Instead, it serves as a foil to the deliciousness of the fish.” Yuan Zhou said.
“Yes, our Fengcheng cuisine is all about the original taste of the dish. This fish has a fishy smell, so it’s not difficult to get rid of it all. However, the fish without the fishy smell is no longer a fish. It has to be fishy and fresh.” The moment Qiu Ji heard Yuan Zhou’s praise, he immediately started to explain happily.
“Not bad. The original taste of the ingredients is the taste of the dish.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
“Head chef Yuan, try my fragrant chicken.” Cui Hang also immediately took out the chopsticks from the customers and handed them to Yuan Zhou.
The chopsticks were handed out and Cui Hang immediately opened the claypot. The snow-white chicken meat and tender yellow chicken skin were set off by the pure black claypot. The heat and fragrance came out at once, which whetted people’s appetite.
“Zi Zi”. The chicken was placed in the earthenware pot. The soup at the bottom of the earthenware pot was still boiling, and the small drops of oil on the surface kept exploding, making a wonderful sound of food.
“This fragrant chicken is Qing Yuan chick. I made it from a 500-kilogram chick that hasn’t even crowed yet.” Cui Hang said.
“This chicken weighed 500 grams before shedding.” Yuan Zhou could tell the weight of the chicken at a glance.
“Yes, yes, yes, it’s indeed this heavy.” Cui Hang nodded.
Having said that, Yuan Zhou didn’t say anything more. He just picked up the chopsticks and started to eat.
Of course, Yuan Zhou had already rinsed his mouth before eating, so that he could taste the taste of the next dish better.
Although Yuan Zhou knew the taste, heat control, and advantages and disadvantages of the fragrant chicken just by taking off the lid and smelling it, he still had to taste it personally. This was Yuan Zhou’s strictness.
Yuan Zhou picked up a piece of leg meat. The cylindrical leg meat was wrapped in a circle of tender yellow chicken skin.
When he was chewing, the chicken skin was very crisp, and the chicken meat inside was very elastic and had gravy. It was probably the taste of the chicken soup that was absorbed when it was re-boiled.
The fragrance of the scallion and the sand ginger lingered in every piece of chicken. It was a perfect combination with the meat fragrance of the chicken itself.
“The taste is not bad.” Yuan Zhou set down the chopsticks and said earnestly.
“It’s good that head chef Yuan is satisfied. ” Cui Hang laughed immediately.
“This time, it’s pretty good.” Yuan Zhou said.
“That’s good, that’s good. ” Qiu Ji and Cui Hang both heaved a sigh of relief.
“I’ll make the arrangements for the exchange. You guys can go back first. ” Yuan Zhou checked the time and then said.
“Yes, head chef Yuan,” The two of them replied in unison again.
“I’ll see you at the exchange. ” Yuan Zhou said.
“OK, head chef Yuan,” “Head chef Yuan, see you at the exchange meeting.” The two of them said their goodbyes and quickly packed up the food boxes on the table.
Seeing the two of them finish cleaning up, Yuan Zhou led them out of the restaurant. Only after he saw them walking out of the restaurant did he prepare to sit down.
However, the two who had just left the shop suddenly turned around, and Qiu Ji said,””Head chef Yuan, we are not here for the exchange meeting. We are here for the cooking attitude that you have mentioned.”
“Yes, we’re doing this for the sake of cooking attitude.” Cui Hang also nodded.
“Yes.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head, indicating that he understood.
Only then did the two of them leave with their food boxes in peace.
“I should go upstairs to wash up. Yin ya will be here soon.” Yuan Zhou watched the two people walk away and then turned around and went upstairs.
On this side, Yuan Zhou went to wash up and prepare to meet Yin ya in a clean manner. On the other side, it was also the first time for the two of them to meet each other in a restaurant that was not Yuan Zhou ‘s.
Or rather, ruan Xiaoqing left with Ling Hong after breakfast. Of course, it was the first time.
After breakfast, Ling Hong stopped ruan Xiaoqing and asked,””Have you considered the job you offered last night?”
“Sure, I’ll take the job.” Ruan Xiaoqing subconsciously brushed her hair behind her ear and said naturally.
“Thank you so much. It’s hard to find a reliable actuary at the end of the year now.” Ling Hong immediately smiled happily.
That’s right. Ling Hong had successfully gotten ruan Xiaoqing’s phone number by pestering her and using some small tricks after he had drunk last time.
Today, Ling Hong told ruan Xiaoqing that he had a small subsidiary company and he couldn’t find someone to read the year-end financial report at the moment. Therefore, he needed her help.
Ling Hong’s reason was also quite reasonable. The company was very small and didn’t have any professional accountant or actuary. Previously, they were all transferred over temporarily. However, this year, the company was too busy with the tax reform and the accountants in the market were also too busy to find any accountant.
It just so happened that ruan Xiaoqing was taking up loose orders recently. That was why Ling Hong asked her.
This was a serious business.
“Actually, you can transfer someone from another company to do it.” Ruan Xiaoqing suggested sincerely.
“Don’t mention it. I’ve already looked for them, but they’re so busy with the new tax. If I arrange a job for them, they’ll hang themselves in front of me.” Ling Hong spread his hands and said helplessly.
“That’s true. The recent tax reform has indeed had a huge impact. A lot of the initial work has to be redone. Now is indeed their busiest time.” Ruan Xiaoqing nodded.
“That’s right. Many people on the market who can take on outsourcing jobs have been sold out. Fortunately, I know an amazing actuary like you.” Ling Hong looked at ruan Xiaoqing seriously while saying that.
“Ahem, I’m only taking some orders now, so I’m not really busy.” Ruan Xiaoqing felt a little uncomfortable Under Ling Hong’s stare and couldn’t help but turn her head and say.
“It’s good to order separately. It’s easy. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely follow what we agreed on last night. I won’t give you more or less than the market price.” Ling Hong said that again to calm ruan Xiaoqing’s heart.
“Alright, I’ll head over now.” Ruan Xiaoqing’s heart relaxed slightly as she nodded.
“Just in time. Where am I going? it’s really on the way this time. Let’s go together?” Ling Hong said and walked forward quickly.
It was obvious that he was afraid that ruan Xiaoqing would reject him and was prepared to pretend that he didn’t hear her.
Ruan Xiaoqing, who had been left behind, gave a rare smile. She pouted her lips like a spring flower and whispered,””Alright,” he said.
But obviously, Ling Hong didn’t see that. He was still immersed in his somewhat perturbed heart.
