Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 462
And 95% is just a passing grade.

During these half a month, Master Sun knew that Chen Nian was practicing BJ roast duck every day, and he didn't make any new dishes for Chen Nian to learn.

That is to say, when playing chess, he told Chen Nian the general method of roasting sea cucumber with scallions, but most of the time it was Chen Nian who was discussing the key points of roast duck with Master Sun.

Of course, every time I talk about these things when playing chess, I keep silent, because although Master Sun is very powerful when playing chess, he has always been more inclined to exert his strength in the later stage. The bigger it is, the more you need to think about it.

So every time the chess game is played to the end, Chen Nian's attention will be fully focused on the chessboard.

But after half a month, Chen Nian finally figured out the internal structure of the duck, but at this time his salary for this month had already been used up.

Without money, it is absolutely impossible. Without money, it means that there is no way to buy new ingredients, and if there is no way to buy ingredients, you can’t continue to practice BJ roast duck.

Chen Nian has almost recorded half of the book, and now it is interrupted, and it is not impossible to continue after the wages are paid next month, but it will take another day or two to get familiar with it.

And now Chen Nian is only thinking about making BJ Roast Duck, so he doesn't want to interrupt the process.

But... If he borrowed money from Master Sun, Chen Nian knew that he would be able to borrow money, but he just didn't want to ask.

I used to insist on roasting a duck every day as a practice. At that time, Master Sun also said it, but I said that the roast duck is more important, but now I have no money and borrow it instead.

Then what did you say before?
It’s just that there are still many backup candidates who don’t borrow money from Master Sun, such as senior brother Tang Dechun, Shen Wen, and Qian Hu.

The three of them have also saved a lot, and these three themselves are honest and responsible people. After the senior brother and the second senior brother are paid their wages every month, they will send some back to their families, but the same they themselves Part of the living expenses will also be left behind.

But in the martial arts hall all day, those who eat here, use here, and live here don't need to spend money on anything. Even if they leave living expenses, generally speaking, they can't spend all of it.

So after having lunch at noon one day, Chen Nian cleaned up the kitchen and headed towards the dormitory of several people.

He knocked on the door, and soon there was a sound of "enter".

Chen Nian stepped into it, and saw that the three of them were lying on the bed at the moment, all shirtless looking at him.

"Master Chen, what's the matter?" Tang Dechun asked curiously.

Now that his injuries have healed, he started to practice in the martial arts gym every day, and the remaining bruises and other injuries did not affect his actions at all.

Chen Nian's primary target this time is also Tang Dechun.

"Brother, I came here this time to tell you something, even you know that I am practicing roast duck recently, we ate it half a month ago, this is my master's signature craft, I will I want to learn this thing to inherit his old man's mantle, but as recently as one duck a day, I have spent all my wages this month, so I want to ask if you have any spare money here that I can lend to me first. No, I can pay you back as soon as I get paid next month."

Chen Nian said, his tone was full of sincerity, after all, borrowing money requires the attitude of borrowing money.

How much money do you want to borrow, what is it for, why you need to borrow money, and when you can repay the money after borrowing.

Otherwise, if you don’t say anything clearly and just say that you want to borrow money, people don’t know why you want to borrow money. If you ask, you will feel embarrassed, and you will seem a bit preoccupied. I don't know what the other party is going to do with the money.

Just like Chen Nian, he directly explained everything clearly, and if the other party did have spare money and good character, most people would borrow it.

After Tang Dechun heard Chen Nian's words, he immediately sat up: "How much do you want?"

"It won't take much." Chen Nian said, "I just don't have it on hand now, and I can research the roast duck in a while. Anyway, what I want to borrow now is the duck money in the next ten days or so. I can pay back all the money when I get my salary next month."

Tang Dechun nodded. He has always been popular in the martial arts school. Some disciples would ask him if they needed money urgently, and Tang Dechun would usually borrow it, but this time it was because Tang Dechun had already given away the money at the end of the month. They were all sent home, and after the martial arts competition at the beginning of the month, he didn't want Shen San to worry too much, so he also asked Qian Hu to buy some medicine outside and spent some money.

So there are really not many on hand.

After he explained the situation to Chen Nian, he said that although he didn't have much, he could lend it all to Chen Nian.

Being so generous, Chen Nian waved his hand in embarrassment and said, "If that's the case, then Senior Brother Qian should keep it for now."

But Tang Dechun didn't want Chen Nian's study plan to be hindered, so he took out the money from under the pillow and came to Chen Nian, forcing the money into Chen Nian's arms.

At this moment, Qian Hu also sat up: "Master Chen, I still have some here. Most of my money has been sent home this month, so I really don't have much."

As Qian Hu said, he also took out all his money from under the pillow and put it in his hands. Although it was not much, it was also his heart.

At the end, Shen Wen also took out the money. Unlike the other two, he didn't need to send money to his family here, because he lived in the martial arts hall and lived at home.

The money of these apprentices is not the wages paid by the martial arts hall, because the martial arts hall itself is in charge of food and housing, and it is not bad to ask them for tuition fees.

And the money they got from the martial arts hall was basically distributed by the martial arts hall after they went out to pick up the work.

As mentioned in the previous article, if you finish your studies in Jinwumen, you can take on some guard-type jobs. After the salary is settled for this kind of work, the martial arts school will take a relatively small part of it, and then spend the rest of the money. Distributed to disciples.

And the best of them in these martial arts schools will go out to do similar things more or less every month.

Although Shen Wen is Shen San's apprentice, he is also a member of the martial arts gym, so the distribution is the same as other senior brothers.

And Chen Nian saw that Shen Wen directly took out so much money, and quickly waved his hands: "No, no, you can't use so much."

It's true that you don't need so much for old age, and there's no need to hold it all in your hands. Anyway, you only need to have duck money for the next period of time.

Make it through this month, and pay back the owed money as soon as the next month's wages are paid, and the rest is almost enough to pass the roast duck training.

But Shen Wen is also a hearty person, if the money has been taken out, why should it be taken back?

"No, you didn't have any money with you when you first came here, so you just take the money. Anyway, I don't have anything to spend, just return it to me when you have it, and I'll take it from you for half a month. There are a lot of ducks eaten there, if you are really sorry, this is the money I have to eat at your place for the past half month."

They all knew that Chen Nian paid for the practice of roast duck by himself, and Shen Wen knew better that his father didn't pay Chen Nian for it, although Shen San also mentioned it at the beginning.

But Chen Nian finally refused on the grounds that this belonged to his own practice, because Chen Nian didn't want to take advantage of the martial arts gym either.

But as soon as Shen Wen said this, Qian Hu on the side found the key point: "Third brother, if you want to say that, why do you ask Master Chen to pay you back? This is the food money you gave to others."

When Shen Wen heard this, he suddenly realized, and after turning his head a few times, he finally understood: "Oh, the second senior brother is right, Master Chen, you can just take the money, and you don't have to pay it back when the time comes, anyway, you will pay it back later. When making supper, I definitely still want to eat."

As soon as Shen Wen said this, Qian Hu also realized that he was only talking about Shen Wen just now, but he didn't expect that in the past half a month, he would often go to Chen Nian at night to play the autumn wind.

Then he patted himself on the head: "Look at my memory, I don't have to pay back the money. I ate a lot at your place. It may not be enough for cooking money, but I have it now. I don’t have much money anymore, and when the wages are paid next month, I will also give you the food money for the next month.”

Among these three people, Tang Dechun is the only one who hasn't eaten the supper made by Chen Nian at night, because he sleeps and rests very regularly every day, and he can eat as much as he can at night, at least he won't let him down I am starving myself.

So he didn't say anything, but wanted to see what Chen Nian had to say.

But after hearing what they said, Chen Nian had a look of dumbfounding on his face. Originally, he wanted to practice making roast duck, but he couldn't eat it after finishing it every day, so he asked them to help eliminate it. Make supper for them to eat, but still charge money?
"I can't, I can't, this will change the nature. I didn't make supper for you specially, but I was afraid of waste, so I invited you to eat. If you are like this, then I will lose it if I make it later. I can't give it to you anymore." Chen Nian quickly refused, he couldn't do such a thing.

Isn't it hooliganism to pass on your own learning costs to other people?

Everyone has a simple personality, and I can't do such a thing myself.

It was only then that Tang Decun finally said: "Actually, I think they should all know what you mean, but even if they ate it, they would eat it. Master Chen, you can share the duck you made with everyone. It's so generous that they will eat it." Naturally, you can’t eat two of them for free, and if you really say it, they can make a lot more money in a month than you, so it’s right to ask them to pay some money.”

Chen Nian wanted to speak at first, but Tang Dechun didn't give him this chance: "So you just accept it first, and I don't have to pay back my money, just treat it as a sponsorship for you, and we happen to be going to BJ for a while next month to participate Ten thousand countries contest, when we come back, you and Master Sun can give us something to celebrate and celebrate."

"Why do you want to go out next month? Didn't you just finish the competition this month?" Chen Nian asked in surprise, he had just heard the news.

"This is different. This month is our martial arts competition in Tianjin. When we go to BJ next month, not only our Tianjin, but also famous martial arts gyms in China will participate. Besides our Chinese, there are also many foreigners. Come here, that's why it's called the Ten Thousand Nations Tournament." Tang Dechun explained.

When Chen Nian heard this, he couldn't sit still on the spot, this thing is very powerful, to be honest, he still wants to follow it.

It's just that he only heard the news from Tang Dechun, so Chen Nian felt that it was impossible for him to follow.

But Tang Dechun said so, Chen Nian could only respond first.

But this time he did get enough money for the future. It's just that Chen Nian didn't ask Tang Dechun when they will go next month and how many people will go there. But Chen Nian doesn't think everyone will go there, after all The Tournament of Nations, an event whose name is very bluffing, must select elites to go there.

No wonder Chen Nian saw Shen San working so hard every day during this period, even harder than his disciples.

Sometimes he would even hand over the martial arts gym to Tang Dechun after he had recovered, while he went out to visit fellow friends to improve himself.

But at that time, there will definitely be a lot less people in the martial arts hall, and after a few fewer elites, Jinwumen will definitely be much deserted.

In that way, I can also calm down and practice with great concentration.

Back in the house, Chen Nian kept a record of all the money he borrowed, so that he would not know who should pay it back when he got it. Although everyone said that he didn't need to pay it back, Chen Nian felt that the things they said were the same.

Just like that, after another five days, Aged Nian can roast a more decent roast duck, but it is a little less interesting in terms of color and quality.

Without the guidance of Master Sun, Chen Nian would always forget and omit some details while doing it.

But now the progress of the roast duck is almost the same. Chen Nian knows that if he continues to roast one roast duck every day with high intensity, the progress will probably not be much faster. The old hot three, such as Mu Shu pork and hibiscus chicken slices and so on.

But these ingredients are still bought at his own expense when they are aged. Of course, he doesn't have enough money to spend, and he borrowed money from the three senior brothers.

It's just that the cost of roast duck is much higher than these. After all, the price of picking a good-looking duck in the vegetable market can buy more than ten catties of pigs.

Therefore, since I started trying to practice other dishes as an adult, only the first comers can eat old dishes every day.

But even so, everyone still enjoys it.

If it wasn't for Shen San's refusal, they even wanted to just sit at the kitchen door and wait.

In this way, another five or six days passed.

The level of aged Shandong cuisine has improved a lot, and the level of roast duck has reached the entry stage, but he is still abused by Master Sun every time in chess.

"Your level is actually pretty good. In the past, Dechun and Luo Sheng would often come to me to play chess. Every time they would come back with a smile and cry, because I always left a poor commander after eating what they had. "

On the first day of Chen Nian at the beginning of the month, he played chess with Master Sun. After losing, he watched Chen Nian recover the endgame he was thinking about before on the chessboard and said.

"Master, I still don't know who that Luo Sheng is. Obviously, Jinwumen was the number one in Jinmen. Why did he go to Longhumen? And he left in such a high-profile way?" Chen Nian asked curiously.

And Master Sun obviously knew about this, but Chen Nian didn't ask about it before, so he didn't say: "Actually, his ambition is big. Think about it, to put it bluntly, even if you are in Jinwumen So what if he is powerful? In the end, if he goes out, he can only be the third master's apprentice?
The Jinwumen will definitely be passed on to Master Shen Wen in the future, and the Jinwumen basically has no other business except for sometimes taking on some jobs outside.

But Longhumen is different. There is Dragonhu Chamber of Commerce in Longhumen, and Hong Long's son in Longhumen is not suitable for martial arts training, so he took the route of the Chamber of Commerce. Then who can give the martial arts hall to when it comes? "

While talking, Master Sun looked at Chen Nian.

Chen Nian nodded, suddenly realized: "To Luo Sheng?"

"Yes." Master Sun took the cannon in his hand and slapped it heavily on the table, "It's broken in Jinwumen. Luo Sheng is just a second apprentice. He will be a teacher in the future. With his talent and Strength, although he will definitely be famous in Jinmen in the future, but that is only a name, but if he goes to Longhumen, he will be the head of Longhumen in the future. Not only is he famous, but he also has power. And money."

When Master Sun said this, Chen Nian also fully understood: "Then what is Su Yunjin planning? Could it be that she also wants to be famous like Luo Sheng, and is not willing to just be the third master's goddaughter here?"

Speaking of Su Yunjin, Master Sun was a little unclear.

"I can't say anything about this girl. I only know that she was very close to Luo Sheng and De Chun in the past, but it was only a few months before Luo Sheng left that the two of them got closer. Later, I also heard that she joined the Dragon and Tiger Chamber of Commerce after she arrived at the Dragon and Tiger Gate, and she seems to be doing well now, taking charge of many things. I guess there may be the reason you mentioned, after all, the three of them almost grew up together. , are very self-motivated.”

And after Chen Nian chatted with Master Sun here for a while, he planned to get up and go back first.

Master Sun also got up to send Chen Nian to the door.

But as soon as he stood up, his whole body suddenly began to shake, subconsciously supporting his head with one hand, and frantically looking for something to rely on with the other.

After finally touching the table, he stabilized his figure.

Seeing this, Chen Nian quickly jumped up to support Sun Fuquan: "Master, what's wrong with you?"

But Sun Fuquan waved his hand: "It's okay, I just stood a little too hard and felt a little dizzy, you go back first, I won't see you off."

But Chen Nian was still a little worried: "Master, why don't we find a doctor to take a look at it, and at least we'll know if it's all right."

But at Sun Fuquan's age, he is very resistant to contacting doctors: "There is no need to find any doctors, I am fine, you go back quickly, I will study chess for a while."

After speaking, Master Sun sat down again, looked at Chen Nian and said angrily.

"Master, are you all right?"

"It's all right."

"Master, if you are really fine, I will go back first. If there is anything, you can call me. I am next door. If you can't say anything, just throw something and I can hear it." Chen Nian was still worried. Said.

"Go, go... What kind of crow's mouth are you? I can't speak anymore? I treat you as my apprentice, why are you still cursing me? Hurry up!"

Seeing that Master Sun was about to get angry, Chen Nian left the room worried.

But after Chen Nian left, Master Sun did not go to play chess, but stretched out his right hand tremblingly and tapped his left shoulder, and then tapped his left leg.

No response.

"Oh, I used to have it once or twice a year, but now I can do it once or twice a month. I'm really old." Master Sun muttered.

But he didn't care about the same thing. After all, he felt that he might be too tired, so he would have this symptom, and he was indeed getting old. It is common for old people to feel inconvenient and feel dizzy and headache. thing.

Usually, a good night's sleep is fine.

Chen Nian, who had just left, only knew that Master Sun was a little dizzy when he stood up, but he didn't know that Master Sun's body was starting to become stiff and numb, and he was unconscious.

So on the one hand, he was really worried about something wrong with Master Sun's body, but on the other hand, he felt that it might be caused by hypoglycemia.

After all, even if Chen Nian himself sometimes squats for a long time and suddenly stands up, his eyes will turn black and his head will feel dizzy.

……

At the same time, on the other side, the Dragon and Tiger Chamber of Commerce.

After practicing martial arts, Luo Sheng went to see Su Yunjin at the Dragon and Tiger Chamber of Commerce.

Everyone in the Dragon and Tiger Chamber of Commerce now knows that Luo Sheng will definitely be the next head of the Dragon and Tiger Sect if nothing happens, and the son of Head Hong will also take over the Dragon and Tiger Chamber of Commerce in the future.

It's just that under this situation, they all know that the Longhumen will definitely be merged into the Dragonhu Chamber of Commerce, instead of the current Dragonhu Chamber of Commerce being attached to the Dragonhumen.

After all, no matter what, the Longhumen will still have the surname Hong in the future.

And Su Yunjin works in Longhumen, but his relationship with Luo Sheng is well known, so even if Su Yunjin is dignified and beautiful, no one dares to think of her.

After all, if you want to fight Su Yunjin, you have to weigh whether you have the courage to confront Luo Sheng.

Su Yunjin also had his own office in the Dragon and Tiger Chamber of Commerce, and there were not many things going on in the Chamber of Commerce today, so Luo Sheng quickly found Su Yunjin's office.

Push the door to enter.

"Brother Sheng, why are you here? Isn't the martial arts hall busy today?" Seeing this, Su Yunjin quickly put down the pen in his hand, got up and walked towards Luo Sheng.

After approaching, he stretched out his hand and took off Luo Sheng's coat, and asked while hanging it on the hanger.
