Sun Maocai and others did not respond very much to Chef Arnold's journey. .
There is not much reaction. The main Tao Shu is just an ordinary kitchen assistant at the top restaurant. There is no credibility in what he said, just as if Sang Ming told others that Jiang Feng ran away and went to Yongheju, not many people would believe it.
Sun Maocai told Jiang Feng that when he used to work in a restaurant in Hong Kong City, he often asked for several days of leave to go abroad for exchanges or competitions. This is especially true for chefs like Arnold. The sudden disappearance is very normal and no fuss is needed.
It's just that the time when he disappeared is more coincident, so it looks a bit like running. Chef Arnold's character is not a person who can run at all.
After listening to Sun Mao said, Jiang Feng actually felt a little relieved.
Compared to what Arnold did when he returned to the United States, everyone was more concerned about when Peng Changping arrived.
Peng Changping wanted to receive the news that Zhou Shiwei was just a student. Just now Jiang Feng has told everyone that this is a happy event that can make everyone happy. Everyone is happy, some are jealous, and some are confused. But one thing is undoubted. Today's protagonist is Zhou Shi, and no one can steal his style.
Even the portion of the cold sea cucumber prepared in the week was protected and placed in a very safe place. Make sure that no one accidentally touches or something strange floats in while passing by, affecting its taste and taste.
It can be called a VIP level of protection.
Zhou Shi knew nothing about it, even chatting in a very calm Tao Shu.
Zhou Shi, who just finished ordering, found that the menu of Taifeng Building had been updated a lot, and could not help but sigh: "I didn't expect that I had changed the menu for more than half a year."
"Oh, has it changed a lot?" Tao Shu asked curiously.
"The price has gone up a lot."
Tao Shu:?
Zhou Shi sighed and gave a sad sigh: "If I leave my job half a year later, maybe I can take the larger store nearby."
Tao Shu:? ? ?
The dishes haven’t been pottery books and there is nothing to eat. I can only drink a few sips of kumquat lemonade without money: "How do I feel that you seem... a little sorry."
Tao Shu didn't understand why Zhou Shi would use such a tone of nostalgia for his old owner. He felt that if he had saved enough money one day, he could return to his hometown to open a shop.
Zhou Shi now lives the life he longs for.
"Is it regrettable?" Zhou Shi didn't realize that his tone was not right. "It may be that after opening the store, I found that... it's different from what I originally thought."
When Tao Shu looked at Zhou, he rarely heard anything and listened to him quietly.
"Originally, I always felt that floating outside is not good, living in no fixed place, there is no guarantee. No matter how hard you are, you are working for others. The money you can get every month is just a little bit of salary, even if you have a bonus, you actually earn If it’s not much, it’s better to save enough money and go back to my hometown to open a store. My life is more stable and I can accompany my parents."
Tao Shu nodded, he thought so too.
"But when I really opened the store, I found out that it was not as good as I thought. I stayed in Peiping for more than ten years, and I have been used to the busy life of 9 to 5 every day. After going back, I was actually tired. , Especially when recruiting for the site selection of the previous decoration, although my mother helped me, it was still busy from morning to night in those months. But I always feel that I am still too busy. I am obviously busy every day. When I came home from the store and took a shower, I didn’t even want to say anything. I just wanted to sleep in the bed, but I always felt that I was free.
"After the store was opened, the business in the store was indeed pretty good, and I made more than in Peiping, but... but I just thought it was wrong, I just thought it was not what I wanted. Was it a bit too hypocritical?" Zhou Shi laughed at himself Smiled, "Especially after I went into the kitchen for a while, I didn’t say a few words. I just made a dish. It feels the same as when I went to work, but when I made this dish, I felt very Enrich."
Tao Shu:?
"I think, you just went into the kitchen and saw that the original working environment was a bit nostalgic. Didn't you tell me that the working environment of Taifeng Building was good, you just miss it a little bit, and I tell you, if you are real Close your shop and go back to work, and you will certainly miss the original time when you opened the shop." Tao Shudao pointedly pointed at the waiter who was approaching him. He said, "We are ready to eat, let's eat first, but I'm starving to death."
Zhou Shi smiled and did not speak, eating quietly.
The dishes are ordered every week, and there are no more dishes and soup. Although Tao Shu works in the top-floor restaurant, the top-floor restaurant will not let each stove cook take turns cooking like Taifeng Building. The employees in the top-floor restaurant are more difficult to eat than Yongheju, and they are more perfunctory.
He is not like Zhou Shi when he was 30 years old and he just talked about a girlfriend. He has a family, a wife and a child. He has a lot of daily expenses, and he lives in a normal way. It is impossible to come to Taifeng Building. Eat at restaurants of this price.
I don't even want to say a word after eating a meal, and then start the tuberculosis mode after eating.
"Zhou Shi I tell you, don't think you can't open the store in your hometown and go to Peiping to float." Tao Shu still remembers what Zhou Shi told him before eating, "We used to shop Are you still in touch with the couple who are doing messy things together?
Zhou Shi shook his head. The only person he had been in contact with all these years was Tao Shu.
"I tell you, it's already very good to be mixed up with me. Remember, Xiao Wang, you were recruited in the same batch as you. When you first entered the store, you could do nothing, just The one who can beat vegetables and not cut them."
Zhou Tao seemed to be somewhat impressed by this statement.
"A little impression, is the tall one?" Zhou Shi asked.
"Yes, that's that. He returned to his hometown several years ago, and he hasn't worked as a cook anymore. I heard that he later ran to sell, first selling furniture, and then selling a house. Selling a house seems to earn a little money directly. Tao Shudao said, "I have a little contact with him. When you returned to your hometown to open a store, I mentioned it to him. You don't know if he envyed you. I told you that we had so many people in the store. Now you are the best."
"Actually, I always think that you are the most powerful. I was lucky, my dad was a chef. I learned a little from him since I was a child, and then I went into the store to learn the relationship and learned a few things with the teacher. Enter those big hotels as a kitchen assistant.” Tao Shu burped. “Although I haven’t saved much money for so many years, I haven’t starved to death. Fortunately, I got married and bought a house early, otherwise I want to buy a house and pay a mortgage. Don't give me this opportunity."
Zhou Shi was amused by his last sentence.
"Don’t laugh, I’ll tell you the truth. I don’t hide from you. I thought you were awesome from the beginning. You said what you would do when you first entered the store, you would hold a knife, and you wouldn’t cut the vegetables properly. I don’t know how to cut it, and no one teaches it. I just look at others and learn secretly."
"I remember at that time I didn't know how to cut meat, and the master chef who was always cutting indiscriminately scolded, and you still taught me later." Zhou Shi laughed.
"How can I teach, how easy it is to cut meat, even if I don't teach you to watch other people watch for a week or two, you can see it. At that time, I just felt weird. It was hard to find a job and had to come to the kitchen and suffer. You’re not tired yet, and you won’t do anything.
"When I was a teenager, I thought so much. I just saw the recruitment at the door of the hotel and I went to apply for it. I was hired when I was confused. There was no money in my pocket and I couldn't afford the rent. Dry under your scalp." Zhou Shidao said.
"Actually, I was not convinced at the beginning. The person with a bad temper was Master. At that time, I always asked him to teach me something. He didn't teach much, and he hasn't given a good face. What about you? You haven’t been in the store for half a year. Master Zhan is willing to teach you two good dishes. At that time, I was much stronger than you.” Uncle Tao felt that his mouth was a little dry, and he drank half a cup of kumquat lemon Juice, "But in fact, I can understand later, why Master Zhan doesn't teach you. You are just a handyman, because you don't have enough kitchen staff to let you cut vegetables, you can't even cut meat at first, only a few months. The dishes cut out by Kung Fu look decent."
"You are so smart, if I master Master, I will teach you."
"Actually, it wasn't Master Zhan who taught me actively. At first, I learned from it." Zhou Shidao said.
Tao Shu was shocked.
"In the beginning, I just thought there was too little money for miscellaneous goods. If I could be a better chef and even a stove cooker, my salary would be much higher. So I thought about seeing how other people did Yes, I’ve learned a little bit myself."
"At that time, my idea was also very simple. Although our store was small, the business was always good. It was because the master chef had high cooking skills. I think it was stealing anyway. If you want to steal, steal the best, and you are not afraid of death. Every day, he was attentive with Master Zhan, and he laid down his hands and shook his edge. He wanted to see more, but it turned out that I really saw something I learned."
Tao Shu was so shocked that he couldn't speak. He didn't expect Zhou Shi to embark on a chef's journey like this.
"Because it's not very glorious, I haven't dared to tell anyone. Later I discovered that Master Zhan was stealing, Master Zhan was actually quite angry, but it was hard not to get angry, but instead taught me two dishes With a lot of basic skills, helped me lay a solid foundation and taught me a lot of things."
"Yes, Master Zhan is very good," Tao Shu agreed. "You are stupid, you should have directly regarded Master Zhan as a teacher."
"I'm not afraid of you jokes, do you know who I wanted to worship as a teacher?"
"Who?" Tao Shu asked curiously.
"Isn’t Master Zhan saying that the master of Zheng'er Bajing can only worship one? If you admit it, you can't change it, or you will betray the master and bully the master and destroy the ancestor. When I want to steal the best, I steal the master's things, and the apprentice also wants to worship the best. So..." Zhou Shi laughed and laughed at himself, making Tao Shu's face dumbfounded.
"Do you remember, the old master Zhan told us that his dad is the chef of Yongheju?" Zhou Shi asked.
"Remember, of course, Master Zhan always said that he would like to say it three times a day. What his dad was originally a chef of Yongheju, even if his luck is not very good, he will be able to worship Master Peng Changping as his teacher, his father If you were able to worship Master Peng as a teacher now, it must be different now. It’s a big difference. Master Zhang every day brags about Master Peng Changping, and hopes to blow Master Peng into the sky as if he has seen it." Tao Shuyi said this. Excited, talking and suddenly reacting, looking at Zhou incredulously, even pointing his finger at him, his hand stopped in midair.
"You...you shouldn't..."
Zhou Shi nodded helplessly.
"Wow, you...you can..." Tao Shuke can't say a word for a long time, "You can think of it, no wonder you told me what you want to go to the United States, I thought you were I want to play."
"At that time, I just wanted to take a simple look. Didn't I give up because I didn't know where Master Peng lived? Then how old I was at that time, was I only 20? 10 years ago!"
"But now Master Peng is back home, why don't you give it a try?" A voice not belonging to Zhou Shi and Tao Shu came from behind Zhou Shi.
Zhou Shi turned his head and saw Peng Changping, who was smiling, and staring at the ground as if the floor tiles of Taifeng Building were very beautiful, very unique, and very attractive, Lu Sheng.
"How did you come? Didn't you go to Yonghe for tea in the afternoon?" Zhou Shi was a little surprised.
"I didn't go for something today. I didn't accompany my juniors to Taifeng Building for a light meal. I didn't expect to see you. The table I ordered is next to you." Peng Changping smiled and pointed to the one next door that had been empty. Table.
Lu Sheng continued to stare at the ground.
"You haven't answered me yet. Isn't that Mr. Peng Changping already returned to China? I think you have a chance. Wasn't you originally a chef at Taifeng Building? Now Taifeng Building is unique and unique, I think You can try it, maybe Master Peng will say you do... close your disciples."
Lu Sheng is still staring at the ground, hoping to stare out a gap to let himself jump down.
"Don't make fun of me, I'm just an ordinary cook, I haven't even been listed in the famous cookbook, how can this skill be accepted by Master Peng. Didn't I tell you before? Master Peng is 100 years old How can I still accept the apprentices. Besides, I’m all 30, who would take such a big apprentice this year!" Zhou Shiquan when Peng Changping was joking with him.
Lu Sheng has something to say, but he knows he can’t, at least not now.
"How do you know if you don't try it? Maybe the master Peng you said just wanted to accept a closed disciple. Maybe someone likes to accept more than 30 years old." Peng Changping's face was full of 4 characters.
"Don't joke about it."
Peng Changping stopped talking and went to sit at the dining room next to Zhou Shi and said to Lu Sheng: "Send a message to let them serve."
Lu Sheng immediately took out his mobile phone and started sending messages.
On the kitchen side, Jiang Feng has been holding the phone and waiting for Lu Sheng's news since he received the news that Lu Sheng said they were coming. Seeing that Lu Sheng finally sent a message telling him that he was ready to serve, Jiang Feng quickly sent the cold sea cucumbers to the dish delivery window. Qian Dingzhen Wan asked the responsible waiter to remember to be stable and don't spill it.
The waiter solemnly carried the cold sea cucumber and walked very slowly, being extra careful.
With a sharp eye, Tao Shu saw at a distance that the waiter was about to serve Peng Changping their table-top dishes, and sighed: "It's good to book in advance, you don't have to wait for the dishes to be served as soon as you come."
Zhou Shi subconsciously looked at the waiter and saw the plate of cold sea cucumber she was carrying.
Very familiar.
This is the same dish he just made!
It's the kind that hasn't been touched in one bite.
Zhou Shi watched as the waiter brought the cold sea cucumber he had made to Peng Changping's table, looked at Peng Changping, Peng Changping smiled at him, and picked up the chopsticks.
Zhou Shi:?
Suddenly he felt that something was amiss.
It's not very wrong, it's very wrong.
Who is this old gentleman?
