Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 419 Girlfriends Are Not Like Good Money (Ask for a Monthly Ticket)

But even so, the vegetable market in old Tianjin is still very interesting, after all, as mentioned before, there is a wharf by the sea.

Various resources on the cargo ships are also very rich.

"Master Sun, what are we going to buy today?" Chen Nian asked curiously.

And Sun Fuquan who was asked raised his head and looked at Chen Nian: "Don't ask me, you can see for yourself, buy whatever you want, but buy more meat, those boys are all practicing martial arts, so don't eat more There is no physical strength."

Chen Nian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, apparently he didn't expect Master Sun to delegate power to him in this way, obviously he was just here.

"Don't look at me, what do you think I want you for? You can buy whatever you want, and you can make it for them when you go back. Don't think that I can't see that you came here with your skills." Sun Fuquan posed He waved his hand and said angrily, as if he had already seen through it.

Chen Nian didn't realize until then, Master Sun is...going to paddle?
Just like the old master in the factory, after finding a capable newcomer, he will leave all his work to the newcomer, and he only needs to stand by and look at it, and give guidance.

You can even go out to smoke a few more cigarettes and come back to find a place to sit and rest for a while, drinking tea.

"Sure!" Chen Nian agreed without hesitation.

To be honest, he does not reject this.

Because Chen Nian knows that what he experienced in the dream is virtual.

Although I am now working for others and being an apprentice to others, I will leave the dream and return to reality after I finish my studies. Even if there will be a projection of Master Sun in the future, or the descendants of Master Sun will meet me It will not be affected by the experience in the dream at all.

Because the only one who knows this experience is Chen Nian himself.

So the most important thing for me to do now is not to promote the so-called human rights and equality and the division of labor between superiors and subordinates in the workplace. I can gain the trust of Master Sun as quickly as possible so that I can learn the other party's best skills.

He is not afraid that the other party will entrust the work to himself. What Chen Nian is most afraid of is the kind of work that is arranged for you and you just follow it and do nothing else. Don’t ask or say anything, just let everyone perform their duties.

Usually there is not much communication, so even if you want to get closer to the other party, it will take a lot of effort.

And along the way just now, Master Sun talked to himself a lot, and now it seems that he is also a person who is a bit cold on the outside and hot on the inside, but everyone has a different personality. Because of my age, my body is also a little tired, and I don't want to think about many things.

That's why I asked myself to watch and buy.

"Then what is our meal standard for noon?"

"There is no standard, but it shouldn't be too expensive. Anyway, you can see for yourself. If there is any problem, I will tell you later." Sun Fuquan waved his hand and looked a little impatient.

But the other party's impatience looked a little amiable in Chen Nian's eyes.

Immediately began to search around in the vegetable market.

When Chen Nian came over just now, he had already gone around the kitchen, and now he basically knows what's in the kitchen.

Moreover, Chen Nian is very familiar with the eating habits of northerners. After all, he went to university in the north for four years, and he also knows many students from the north.

First of all, I bought a large bag of potatoes in the old age. This stuff can hold up, and the portion is also sufficient.

Then I bought a lot of pork, but some of them were packed directly by the stall owner, and some of them were chopped into meat stuffing by the stall owner.

Then I bought five more chickens and asked the owner of the stall to kill them.

Finally, I bought some vegetables piecemeal.

During the buying process, Chen Nian skillfully negotiated the price with the boss, while asking the other party to lower the price a bit, while using the less proficient Tianjin dialect to establish a relationship with the other party.

Sun Fuquan's eyes were full of admiration. To be honest, he didn't hate this kind of young people who bargained in the vegetable market, because everyone was ordinary people.

Don't talk about philistines or philistines, save a province here, save a province there, you can save a fortune, and the most important thing is that the old-fashioned way of bargaining is not offensive at all.

On the other hand, if Chen Nian is the kind of person who doesn’t even bargain for the price of vegetables and takes advantage of what others say, Sun Fuquan will look down on Chen Nian instead. If there are other things that he is not satisfied with later, Sun Fuquan will think way to drive it away.

After negotiating the price, Chen Niantong asked the other party to deliver these items to the martial arts gym and reported the address.

As a result, when many stall owners heard that they were going to deliver goods to Jinwumen, those stall owners who originally wanted to add some price to the delivery immediately said that they would send the goods for free, and that if they bought from them in the future, they would be able to send them for free. door to door.

In the end, when Chen Nian and Sun Fuquan left, apart from the loss of a few dollars, nothing else had been added.

"Have you done this before?" Sun Fuquan asked. Of course, what he asked was not that Chen Nian was a chef before, but that Chen Nian had done this kind of work in charge of purchasing ingredients before.

You must know that in many stores and homes, chefs are not responsible for purchasing ingredients, and there are special personnel to purchase ingredients.

The division of labor and cooperation is afraid that they will use their power to enrich themselves.

But in Jinwumen, Sun Fuquan was invited back by Shen San himself, so he was naturally very assured of his character.

Listening to Master Sun's question, Chen Nian nodded: "I used to work in a troupe for a while."

Sun Fuquan didn't ask where Chen Nian's troupe was, anyway, there were only a few types, either Henan, Hebei, or Peking Opera troupe.

"It's good, do it well, don't say anything else here, at least you can eat enough, and there will be meat in every meal."

"I also hope that Master Sun can teach you more in the future." Seeing that the other party was easy to talk to, Chen Nian said respectfully.

In this way, Master Sun has a better impression of Chen Nian.

But just after Chen Nian and Sun Fuquan returned to the gate of the martial arts hall, Sun Fuquan was a little tired from running all morning and went back to rest, while Chen Nian was waiting at the gate for the ingredients to be delivered by the vendors.

There are also people guarding the entrance of the martial arts hall, so it is not boring for Chen Nian to wait here, chatting with those disciples while waiting.

"I remember you are called Xiaosan and Xiaosi, right?" Chen Nian had a vague impression of these two gatekeepers in his mind, but although their names were San and Si, they were not the third or fourth. The fourth child is just a name.

"Yes." The two nodded, with immature expressions on their faces.

37 years younger and 46 years younger, they are all minors when they say it, but in this period, at the age of sixteen or seventeen, they have already begun to become the pillars of the family.

"How long have you two been here?" Chen Nian asked curiously.

"Three or four years, I can't remember the details." Xiaosan thought for a while and then said, "But Brother Chen, why did you come to our martial arts hall to find a job as a cook?"

Hearing this question, Chen Nian smiled: "It must be because the food in the martial arts hall is good. You all practice martial arts and you want to eat meat every day. As a cook, I can mix some broth for drinking Well, it's better than eating chaffy vegetables outside, besides, it's a blessing from the previous life to work in the third master's martial arts school."

Chen Nian spoke polite words very skillfully, with a Tianjin accent.

There are some similarities between the Tianjin accent and the BJ accent, but there are obvious differences in the tone of speaking, but it is not difficult to speak Tianjin dialect, that is, some unique words are not very clear.

But it is not impossible to change that word to another way of saying it.

This kind of beautiful talk does not cost money, and everyone loves to hear it and is not afraid of others spreading it around.

On the contrary, Chen Nian very much hoped that they would spread it everywhere, so that Shen San would have a better impression of himself.

"That's right, our parents also sent us here to practice martial arts because of the third master's reputation." Xiaosan and Xiaosi nodded in agreement. They obviously recognized Shen San's character very much, and also read between the lines. It could be heard that the two of them respected Shen San very much.

At this time, we still pay attention to being a teacher for one day and being a father for life.

Especially a good master can make them treat them like their own parents.

"That's really good." Chen Nian thought to himself that if this was the case, then he would be able to stay more securely.

And if it's true, life in the martial arts hall may be better than in the theater before. After all, the actors in the theater eat differently from other people. Just need to do the same.

Also, you will feel more secure here.

To give the most common example, a thief dares to steal from an opera troupe, but never from a martial arts hall.

Wusheng in the troupe discovered that the thief might not be able to catch the thief on the spot. Once he escaped, even Wusheng would not be able to catch up.

But it's different if it's in a martial arts gym.

It's like sheep among wolves.

But when they were chatting, a woman suddenly came over.

Wearing a dark green cloud-pattern cheongsam, the fork does not reach the calf, and the small part of the light-white calf exposed is dazzling and enviable.

The cheongsam seems to be made by a master. It fits perfectly from top to bottom. It perfectly outlines the other person's graceful figure with bumps and convexities. The face is painted with exquisite makeup. According to old guesses, this makeup is absolutely perfect in less than half an hour. Can't draw it.

In addition, there is a delicate bun on the head with a little wool.

But Chen Nian's impression of the other party's exquisite attire is not that of an ordinary wealthy wife. The main reason is the smile on the corner of the other party's mouth that made Chen Nian think:
"The maids don't look like good silver."

Sure enough, the other party spoke quickly: "You two little brothers, I'm here to find your senior brother, and I hope you can help pass it on."

"Who are you?" Xiao San was a little nervous at first when she saw the other party. After all, such a beautiful woman appeared in front of her, so little fledglings like them couldn't help but blush.

But as soon as he heard that the other party was looking for a senior brother, he immediately asked the other party about his background.

"I'm an old acquaintance of your elder brother. You just need to say Yunjin is here when you go in, and he will come out."

Xiao San and Xiao Si looked at each other and nodded at the same time, then Xiao San turned his head and headed towards the martial arts hall, with Xiao Si watching from here, of course Chen Nian was just making up for it.

It's just that after Xiaosan left, Chen Nian took a look at the other party, and couldn't help being a little curious about the relationship between this person who called himself Yunjin and the elder brother.

Logically speaking, the eldest brother looks honest and honest, which is completely opposite to this woman's style. How could the two of them be old acquaintances?

But the other party said such words again.

Therefore, Chen Nian concluded that there must be some problem between these two people!
"What's your last name, miss?" Chen Nian suddenly asked.

And the woman who claimed to be Yun Jin obviously didn't expect Chen Nian to ask such a question suddenly, and she didn't even know Chen Nian, she had never even met or heard of such a person.

But hearing the other party's indifferent tone of inquiry, Yun Jin couldn't figure out the other party's identity for a while, so she could only answer simply: "My surname is Su."

"Su Yunjin? The name sounds nice." Chen Nian nodded, and then stopped asking.

Seeing this move, Xiao Si and Su Yunjin were puzzled by Zhang Er's monk.

But seeing that Chen Nian didn't ask again, Su Yunjin couldn't ask the other party why he asked this question.

Not long after they waited, the senior brother Tang Dechun came out from the inside, and he was obviously taken aback when he saw Su Yunjin: "What are you here for?"

"Can't I come and see you if I'm fine? Anyway, we were childhood sweethearts back then."

Childhood sweetheart!

Chen Nian listened to Su Yunjin's words, and then looked at Tang Dechun's reaction, thinking that his guess just now was indeed correct, there was indeed a problem between these two people!

"What's the matter with you?" But after hearing this, Tang Dechun was unmoved and asked directly.

"After so many years, you are still like this. It is true that I came to you for something, but this is not a place to talk. Why don't you go to the teahouse in the alley over there? I heard that there is a batch of new tea over there, and I just haven't had time to taste it. Have a taste."

"No need, just here." Tang Dechun shook his head.

"You..." Su Yunjin covered her mouth and smiled. At this moment, Chen Nian saw that the other party was wearing all kinds of jewelry, each of which seemed to be of great value.

"Anyway, I'll wait for you over there. If you don't come, I'll be very sad..." Su Yunjin turned around and left after speaking. The swaying figure made Xiao San and Xiao Si swallow their saliva.

Of course, this is a secret move, after all, this woman seems to have some connection with the elder brother.

But when the other party walked out for about twenty or thirty steps, Tang Dechun, who had been standing at the door, sighed: "I'll go out for a while, and I'll be back in a while."

After speaking, he followed the other party's leaving figure.

Looking at the backs of the two of them one in front of the other, Chen Nian also began to imagine the past between the two of them at this time, maybe it was that kind of bloody love triangle relationship, and now this bad woman suddenly came to the door , maybe there is some conspiracy.
