Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 595 Realistic Xiao Huang, Changing Face Online (ask for a monthly ticket)
Although it's a matter of pulling wool, it's not a problem if it goes on like this, even if Xiao Huang did have some prejudices against him before.

But a person's personality is like this, and it is impossible to change it so easily. It is not without reason that jealousy is one of the original sins in this world.

It's just that for Chen Nian, it's true that he told himself how to make those dishes, and he really learned a lot from it.

For any cuisine, learning a few classic dishes can lead to many other dishes.

So even though Chen Nian went to the island to play happily for a few days this time, he still didn't forget to bring some gifts to Master Huang when he finally came back.

The main reason is that I looked around and couldn't find anything suitable, so I finally asked the driver to introduce a reliable store to buy a bottle of wine.

The bottle of wine cost a full $[-] to age.

At that time, when Chen Nian bought it, he found that there were expensive wines and cheap wines.

You can buy a bottle of cheap wine for less than one dollar, but expensive wine can cost thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars.

It's just that this kind of wine can already be regarded as the treasure of the town store.

With such a bottle of wine, he could even buy a small island not far away.

Although Chen Nian didn't have that much money, he had tens of thousands of dollars on him when he got off the boat.

After all, every time you get a place in the chef competition on the ship, you will be rewarded.

And there are many rewards.

It doesn't cost much to age on board.

That is to say, after arriving on the island of Hawaii, I bought some messy things and brought some gifts to my friends. The total cost was about two to three thousand dollars.

The rest are from Vivienne.

Spend $[-] on a bottle of wine, and the age can be fully paid for, and it doesn't feel bad at all.

Anyway, the money can't be brought back.

Therefore, it doesn't feel at all to spend this money in old age.

And Huang Su was a little surprised after receiving Chen Nian's gift. After all, he never thought that Chen Nian would actually give him something. , and finally taught them all.

But every time Chen Nian left, he would swear by himself again, and of course Chen Nian would not let Chen Nian hear these words.

"It's okay, I'm not the only one who knows those dishes, so it's okay to teach, just forget about giving things." Huang Su's first reaction after seeing this gift was to reject it.

But all the presents have been brought, how could Chen Nian bring them back.

"Master Huang, why are you being polite to me? Do you pretend that I don't know that you often drink wine alone in the room? All right, I'll put it on the table for you, and I'll go first."

Chen Nian was not too polite with the other party, after all, he came to give gifts this time, and Chen Nian had to tidy up the house when he got back, after all, he bought a lot of things after getting off the ship this time, so he had to tidy up.

Master Huang, on the other hand, looked at the bottle of wine on the table with a complicated expression, looked at it again, turned his head and left, and aged without giving him a chance.

As Chen Nian left and closed the door, Master Huang looked at the wine and sighed.

"I know some foreign language, but what does it mean?" Huang Su looked left and right and couldn't understand it. It was not too bad for him to communicate in some daily vocabulary, but like the words written on the packaging of this bottle of wine He couldn't understand all the words like place names and trademarks.

"Forget it, it's probably not a valuable wine. This kid has never given me anything before. What can he give me this time? Is he willing to buy it?" Huang Su muttered.

He doesn't think that aging will buy him any expensive wine, just as if it is the kind of wine that can buy a bottle for a few dollars at most.

But at this moment his door was knocked again.

Huang Su thought it was Chen Nian who came back, cursed inwardly, and then went to open the door, but when he opened the door, he found that the person standing at the door was not Chen Nian, but another chef who was better than him.

This is a chef from Iceland, Sorel.

Due to the small size of the country, when he came on board, everyone thought he was from a small place.

So no one is willing to get close to him. Once he was accidentally injured, and ended up meeting Master Huang.

Master Huang didn't plan to take care of it, and Solnier didn't plan to ask anyone for help, but at this time he was in so much pain that he had no choice but to ask Huang Su for help.

With Huang Su's character, if others open their mouths, he will naturally help, and as a Chinese, he has more skills, so he directly helped Sorel complete the application of medicine and bandaging.

Sorrell was shocked at the time.

During the chat, Sorrell mentioned that he was from Iceland. At that time, Huang Su didn't even know what Iceland was.

As a result, after listening to the other party's description, I found that the entire country of the other party is not as large as FJ's provincial university.

Immediately, he felt that the other party came from a small place, and he smiled happily on the spot.

After that, they came and went, and they became friends.

Sorel also knew Huang Su's character, but he was careless, so he didn't care. Later, Sorel would often come to Huang Su to sit and drink.

But today, when Huang Su opened the door, he found that the person who came was Sorel, not Chen Nian, so he smiled.

Sorel was still holding a bottle of wine when he came, and he also came to find Huang Su to drink this time.

But as soon as he entered the door and sat down, he found a bottle of wine on the table.

But when he took a closer look...

"Master Huang, did you buy this wine?"

As soon as Huang Su heard the other party ask about the wine, she sighed and said: "I didn't buy it, it was given by the old man. He said he bought it on the island of Hawaii, but I don't know if it is." Huang Su Su's tone of voice was very casual, and it was obvious that he didn't take the wine seriously.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Sorel couldn't help showing envy.

"This is good wine, or else I'd drink it today." Sorrell said.

When Huang Su heard this, she immediately regained her spirits: "Good wine? I think this wine is just average, how can it be better? If you want to drink, then let's drink this today."

Sorel laughed like something on the spot, quickly put down his wine, picked up the bottle of wine from Chen Nian, and was about to open it: "Master Huang, it's rare to see you so generous, such a bottle of wine costs two A thousand dollars, I have never drank such a good wine in my life, it seems that I can taste it with you today."

As a result, Huang Su's eyes widened when he heard this!
"What? Two thousand dollars?"

"Of course, I won't admit it wrong. The characteristics of this wine are obvious. The estate that produced this bottle of wine is also famous all over the world. Look at the logo here and the year. I can assure you that this The bottle of wine is at least two thousand dollars, if it is used for auction on some special occasions, then the value is hard to say." Sorrell said confidently.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he felt that his hands were empty...

At this time, Huang Su snatched the wine back.

"No, no, I've changed my mind. I can't drink this wine. I didn't know that this wine was so expensive. I still drink yours."

If the wine was only twenty dollars, maybe Huang Su would be willing to give up.

But that's two thousand dollars!
Using his own salary as a comparison, his current salary on the Platinum Star is [-] US dollars per year.

And that's already a high salary.

Work on the boat for a year, don't eat, drink, or spend money.

He can build a yard with at least seven rooms in his hometown when he goes back.

And the bottle alone was worth two thousand dollars.

Now how can he not know the gold content in it?

Even if he sells it now, he absolutely can't just drink this bottle of wine like this.

"Is this really given to you by the old age?" Seeing Huang Su's expression changed instantly, Sorel also asked in surprise.

"He gave it to me, but I didn't expect that he would give me such an expensive wine..." Huang Su was still in shock, because he just let the bottle of wine be placed on the table carelessly just now.

If there was a sudden jolt on the boat and the bottle of wine fell to the ground...

Scared to think about.

It was only then that Sorel realized what a great thing he had just said.

"It seems that this old man really knows how to do things. He got a lot of bonuses on the boat before, but you just taught him a few dishes, and he is willing to spend two thousand dollars to buy such an expensive wine for you to cook. Gift……"

Sorel didn't say anything later, and only then did Huang Su really realize that Chen Nian might be telling the truth to himself.

Thinking of this, he directly excused that he was not feeling well today, and he didn't want to drink anymore. After tactfully letting Sorel leave, he rolled up his mattress from the bed and wrapped the bottle of wine carefully.

Looking left and right, he finally turned out all the clothes boxes, put the bottle of wine in carefully, and locked it.

It's no wonder that Huang Su is so cautious, mainly because the two thousand dollars is equivalent to two to three million yuan if it is changed now.

"Hey, it's really old. If you bought a bottle of this wine for so much money, why don't you just give me the money..."

"What a prodigal, spending so much money..."

Sitting on the bed, Huang Su felt as if he had a dream, and he kept muttering, but no matter how he listened, he could hear that his tone was full of joy rather than real complaints.

……

It is said that Chen Nian returned to the house after delivering the wine.

Still thinking about the bottle of wine I gave, I don't know if Xiao Huang likes it or not.

Because Chen Nian is not a person of this era, so even if you know the prices of this period, Chen Nian will not feel much about it.

The main reason is that the bonuses given to the top chefs on the Platinum Star are too high, so that Chen Nian feels that it is easy to make money.

In addition, there was no way to take the money back, so Chen Nian didn't think it was a big deal when he bought it.

Even after arriving on shore, they just buy whatever they see and eat whatever they want, regardless of the price.

Among the few people accompanying them at that time, Vivienne was even more expensive, so in her opinion, this little money was actually just that.

Lucas is also a well-known musician. As early as the age of eighteen or nineteen, he had already earned 100 million US dollars of his own, directly realizing financial freedom, and took the money around the world for more than 20 years. Money spent.

Although Tonio can be regarded as the poorest of them here, he can't help him with a good attitude, and he has always believed in spending money when he has money.

Not to mention the driver, I have seen too many rich people's consumption patterns, and I am no longer surprised by these extravagant expenses.

"Forget it, I'll thank him later." After Chen Nian made up his mind, his heart calmed down, otherwise he always felt that something was wrong in his heart.

In this way, when Chen Nian got up early to go to work the next day, he met Huang Su in the kitchen.

As a result, Huang Su greeted him warmly on the spot.

Such an attitude even made Chen Nian a little unaccustomed to it.

And when Huang Su was working in the morning, the two cooks under Huang Su still spoke bad things about the old age as usual, but this time Huang Su straightened his face when he heard it.

He scolded them both head and face.

Talk as bad as you want, and finally tell them to do what they want, and get out if they don't want to.

This made those two people very wronged, thinking to themselves, isn't that what you often say?Why did you suddenly become so angry today?
Aren't we saying this to make you happy?

At night again, when Chen Nian went to Huang Su to learn how to cook again, Huang Su's attitude changed a lot.

Only then did Chen Nian feel that it was indeed useful to give him a small gift.

But Chen Nian learned a new dish this evening.

Minced chicken and golden bamboo shoots.

According to Master Huang, this dish is a Fuzhou dish among Fujian dishes, and it has always been listed as top-grade at banquets. Moreover, this dish originated in the Ming Dynasty and was one of the favorite dishes of Emperor Ming Shenzong at that time.

Hearing this, Chen Nian couldn't help but nodded, thinking that this was not bad, but now that Chen Nian couldn't wait to try this dish, but he really made an appointment with Mr. Huo at ten o'clock in the evening Go to him for a chat around one o'clock.

There was no other way, Chen Nian had no choice but to resist the impulse in his heart and went to Mr. Huo's side again.

It's just that the other party didn't talk much after they went there, but just asked Chen Nian how much he had learned in cooking now.

I also asked some old questions about management, but these are actually the weaknesses of old. If it is about how to manage small restaurants, old is very good at it, but what Mr. Huo asked is about large restaurants or restaurants like Platinum. Experience in management of such establishments as Asterisk.

But Chen Nian also said what he had, and said he didn't know if he didn't know.

In the end, Mr. Huo talked about other aspects: "Actually, after cooking, once you know everything you need to know about ingredients and dishes, you will enter a bottleneck period.

If you want to take a step forward, you have to improve your own aesthetics, and your current starting point is very high, so you can start to get in touch with these things at the same time, so as not to wait until you are 40 years old to touch these things again, and your understanding will be improved. Not so high, and many habits may not be able to change. "
