The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan

Chapter 485
Three days later, Zhou Xiaomei and Shangguan Qingyuan came to Suzhou.

It is midsummer in Suzhou, and the temperature is as high as 33 degrees.

The trees on both sides of the street are green and luxuriant, and the main rivers criss-crossing in the urban area render the coolness.

At noon, there was a long queue of diners at Aqiao's Humble Administrator's Garden restaurant. Most of them came to visit the Humble Administrator's Garden, and there were people from all over the country.

Shangguan Qingyuan came to Suzhou for the first time, and it was also the first time she saw such a lively dining scene, she couldn't help being shocked.

Zhou Xiaomei, who was standing beside her, said: "This is our first store in Suzhou. The business has been booming. The other stores are also very good, but generally speaking, they are not so good."

Li Shuang, who picked them up at the airport, said: "The daily turnover is now between 700,000 and 20, with an average monthly turnover of [-], and the annual turnover is [-] million less. The same area is [-] times that of the provincial capital. Suzhou still has potential."

Shangguan Qingyuan said: "It has great potential."

Li Shuang led Shangguan Qingyuan to meet the store manager and head chef. The store was busy at noon, and the three of them didn't stay. Had a light meal.

In the evening, Gu Yi, Sister Wang, and Qiao Shan came forward to greet Shangguan Qingyuan in a private restaurant. Zhou Xiaomei, Li Shuang, Xiao Gao, Erdun and Yaru participated.

Yaru originally didn't want to participate, but was forced to go by Sister Wang.

When people communicate with each other, they pay attention to eye relationship.When Sister Wang met Yaru for the first time, she felt that she hit it off and could chat together, so she liked it.It's like Gu Yi likes Erdun, looking at him with enthusiasm, looking pleasing to the eye, nothing else.

This kind of communication is purely emotional, with no interest mixed in, and it is relatively simple.Often simple exchanges can turn into pure friendship in the end, and those mixed with interests either give up halfway or part ways, and few reach the end.

Shangguan Qingyuan's performance is still good.

In terms of appearance, youthful and beautiful, it is almost a copy of Zhou Xiaomei.Zhou Xiaomei's beauty and temperament are recognized, her figure is not inferior to that of a professional model, she exudes the charm of a white-collar beauty, and has the dominance of a beautiful president.

Speaking of it, don't look at Lao Tan as her uncle, but he is actually not as old as her, one year younger than her.The seniority relationship made her look younger than old Tan and older, as if she was from another generation.

Old Tan was one year younger than her, two years younger than Yanhua, five years younger than Zhang Li, seven years younger than Wang Shulan, and even Li Shuang was three years older than him.

But everyone feels that Old Tan is big and is willing to let him lead, and they are used to it.

Having said that, Lao Tan is indeed very handsome, and he is admirable in his behavior and deeds.

Looking back at Shangguan Qingyuan, she was first recognized by everyone for her appearance.To be honest, it is undeniable that a woman is beautiful and has a good figure.

Her performance at the banquet was also recognized by everyone.

The attitude is humble, gentle and warm, the language expression ability is strong, the thinking is quick, and witty.The most important thing is that he has unique insights, strong logic, and is full of passion and love for the catering industry.

Another point is that she is young, 32 years old, just in time.

After eating, Zhou Xiaomei and Shangguan Qingyuan followed Yaru and Li Shuang back to the courtyard and temporarily stayed in Lao Tan's room.

After returning to the house, Yaru had something on her mind, so she called Zhou Xiaomei over.

"Xiaomei, you were here when Lao Tan got sick, and you went to Beijing for a checkup. You know what's going on, tell me, I've been wondering what's going on," Yaru said.

So Zhou Xiaomei told Yaru about the ins and outs of Lao Tan's illness in detail, and finally said: "Don't worry, you don't know about my uncle, you have a good attitude, I promise you'll be fine.

At the beginning, I was like you, always thinking about it, just afraid that he would not be able to think about it.

As the saying goes, how many cancers die of illness, don’t they all scare themselves to death because they can’t think about it?As long as you think about what happened, keep a good mood, and actively cooperate with the treatment, even if the cure is not cured, you will not die immediately, and you will live for ten or eight years.

Besides, in his early days, nothing happened, don't worry. "

"I'm just thinking about it—I haven't seen him since he was sick, and I always feel like it's the same thing, so I can't sleep—" Yaru said.

"Don't worry this time." Zhou Xiaomei said with a smile.

"Well, don't worry."

Zhou Xiaomei then asked: "I heard that Erdun treated you very well, how are you two doing now?"

Yaru said: "It's all nonsense - he does mean that to me, but I don't like it, so I made it clear to him."

"Oh--"

Yaru asked about Zhang Li's injury again. Zhou Xiaomei said that she was about to be discharged from the hospital and was fine, and then the two fell asleep.

Old Tan went down the mountain on June [-]th.

Bao Litu didn't follow him down the mountain, and became a monk.

After the old lama said that he would accept Baolitu, Lao Tan told Baolitu, and Baolitu agreed almost without thinking.

The day of hair loss was very grand, and Lao Tan, Mr. Jia, Mrs. Jiang, Wang Jianguo, Li Guohua, Yuan Fang and others all participated.Tantric lamas do not have a dharma name, and Baolitu is still called Baolitu, but the word Lama is added after it.

Bao Litu, with hair falling, is dressed in a red lama robe, with his right arm exposed, bald head, and a solemn Dharma appearance, which looks a bit like a living Buddha.

After becoming a monk, he seems to have opened his mind, and his words have Zen wisdom, which is impressive.The miraculous thing is that his hands can touch the bone to heal the wound, and the effect is good.The old lama taught him all his bone-touching skills like picking up a treasure. Bao Litu couldn't do anything else, and bone-touching seemed to be a natural talent. Once he learned it, the old lama was amazed.

Since then, the world has lost a boorish man, and there have been more lamas in the mountains who healed their wounds.

Lao Tan was taken to Hohhot by Yang Zhijun, and first told Baolitu's sister, Su Yaqiqige, about Baolitu's becoming a monk. Su Ya was silent for a while, and then said calmly: "It's good for him to become a monk. An An will do."

This is a beautiful wish from a sister to a brother.

Lao Tan stayed in Hohhot for one night and arrived in Beijing the next day.

Wang Shulan, who picked him up, complained fiercely at first, but Lao Tan didn't make a sound, just smiled and listened to her rebuke.

After complaining, Wang Shulan drove directly to the old Chinese medicine clinic.

The three-month conditioning in the mountains has achieved remarkable results, and the disease has basically been controlled and started to develop in a better direction.

This is great news, Lao Tan is happy, Wang Shulan is happy, and the old Chinese doctor is also happy.

"Continue to treat like this, and I can guarantee that you will be fine within three years, just like normal people." The old Chinese doctor said.

"Thank you very much." Lao Tan hurriedly bowed.

"You don't have to thank me. If you want to thank you, thank yourself. I told you that medicine can cure diseases, as long as the heart is not dead, diseases can be cured. There are no difficult diseases in the world, only people who cannot be cured." The old Chinese doctor said.

Old Tan said, "That's what happened."

"It's a pity that not many people believe in Chinese medicine these days. They all think that Western medicine is good, and they feel relieved when they ask someone to stab something with a knife, saying that it is a cure. Hey——

Traditional Chinese medicine is handed down from the ancestors. It has a history of 5000 years. How old is Western medicine?A full count of 100 years.It's sad that you don't believe in 5000 years. "

The old Chinese doctor expressed his emotions, and the old Tan Xiang said with emotion: "Chinese medicine is broad and profound, and it treats the symptoms and removes the root, and the common people recognize it."

Wang Shulan said: "I just believe in Chinese medicine, what is passed down from my ancestors is good."

The old Chinese doctor calmed down and said: "Western medicine treats the symptoms, and Chinese medicine treats the root cause. The difference between the two is high and low. It's just that Chinese medicine is difficult to learn, and it requires understanding. It is not easy to open a clinic to treat diseases with good theory.

Fortunately, there are traditional Chinese medicine hospitals all over the country now, so it will not decline, but it needs a long-term plan to develop it.

First of all, restore the old tradition, passed on by the master, and put an end to fake experts and fake Chinese medicine practitioners;

The second is to seek benevolence, and the doctor is benevolent;
The third is to strictly control the market of Chinese herbal medicines, to eliminate substandard and counterfeit medicines, so that genuine medicines can cure diseases. "
