I work as a chef in the university cafeteria

Chapter 236 Is this sky-high price banquet delicious?
On the first floor of the Seventh Canteen, in the box.

When no one is resting, it becomes Hua Xiaoling's "temporary office".

Hua Xiaoling is not considered a full-time employee of Seven Canteens, at best she is just a non-staff employee, and her main job is to be an Internet celebrity in the live broadcast of food exploration. As for helping Jiang Yu operate the "Jiang Daqi Canteen" Douyin account and manage the restaurant reservation app , can only be regarded as "hobby".

Who made her fall in love with Jiang Yu's cooking?
She couldn't let go, couldn't let go, and could only use her professional skills to "earn" herself a bite to eat.

At this moment, Hua Xiaoling was sitting on a chair, her big eyes were staring at the laptop screen in front of her without blinking, and she was holding the mouse in her right hand, constantly clicking something.

Behind her, Jiang Yu was also looking at the screen with his arms folded, with a serious and focused expression on his face.

"Boss, it's almost eight o'clock. After eight o'clock, the reservation system on the app will automatically open."

Hua Xiaoling operated the computer for a while, then stopped, turned her head to look at Jiang Yu, and explained in a crisp voice,

"This time is standard time, according to the time on the computer system."

"Oh, that's pretty good, it's much more accurate than opening the reservation manually, and it also saves people from complaining that our time is not accurate."

Jiang Yu nodded and said with a smile,

"Xiaoling, take a look later, if we book all the boxes for this week, how long will it take?"

"Oh."

Hua Xiaoling responded, but before she could catch her breath, she hurriedly said,
"Well, boss, all the boxes for this week have been booked!"

"Huh?" Jiang Yu was taken aback.

"I said, all the boxes for this week have been booked!"

Hua Xiaoling turned her head, her two big eyes seemed to be shining, so bright that Jiang Yu was a little dazed, she said excitedly,

"40 boxes, all were robbed in 2 seconds!"

"It will be gone in 2 seconds?"

Jiang Yu was also taken aback. Before Yan Tongtong was asked to sit there to register the hotline for box reservations, even if the calls kept coming one after another, she would still have to answer them all morning.

Unexpectedly, after transferring this matter to the APP, it will be done in 2 seconds?

This speed is too fast!
"Uh, to be precise, it's a little more than 1 second, less than 2 seconds."

Hua Xiaoling operated the background management page of the restaurant reservation app, carefully checked the data, and then explained,
"For a while before eight o'clock, the number of people logging into the app at the same time soared to 5000, so that the app became a bit stuck. Otherwise, I think it would take less than a second for our 40 boxes. It's gone."

"Is it seriously stuck?"

"That's not very serious, it just recovers after a short delay, but it's enough to affect the customers' 'second kill' boxes."

Hua Xiaoling thought for a while, turned to look at Jiang Yu, and asked,
"Boss, do you want to ask Boss Duan to find a way to optimize the server?"

"I don't understand this very well, why don't you ask him how to deal with it after you finish your work here."

Jiang Yu didn't command blindly, he said with a smile,

"Okay, then you are busy, sort out the customer information and the corresponding menu, and then print it out and hand it to me. Thank you, Xiaoling."

After hearing Jiang Yu's words, Hua Xiaoling couldn't help but giggle and said:

"The boss cooks more delicious food, then I will definitely not have to work hard!"

"What do you mean, did I starve you before?"

Jiang Yu shook his head and laughed, and ignored Hua Xiaoling who was snickering behind the computer, turned around and opened the door of the box.

As soon as the door was opened, the noisy sound waves in the cafeteria hall rushed in like a tide, and instantly surrounded Jiang Yu, making him stunned for a moment.

At this moment, the cafeteria has been open for a while, and it is the time when there are the most students, and the hall is crowded with people and the noise is extraordinary.

During this period of time, the Seventh Canteen will introduce a new breakfast product or new dish almost every few days, which makes the students who already like the food in the Seventh Canteen even more eager for it.

This kind of change also made the other canteens on the campus of Jiang University even more "like facing the enemy", and each of them began to optimize their dishes or completely change them.

For example, Four Canteens has completely abandoned the Chinese fast food model and changed to Western food fried chicken, French fries, bread and hamburgers, plus various sodas and drinks, abruptly changing itself into a Western food canteen.

Since the five canteens closed last year, they reopened this year under a different owner, and gave up the main meals, turning the canteen into a "Huaxia Food City", focusing on famous snacks from all over China, such as grilled skewers, deep-fried stinky tofu, and Liangpi. And Roujiamo and so on.

Engaging in "differentiated" competition like this is, on the contrary, a way to avoid the desperate "rolling" between canteens.

After all, there are more than 4 teachers and students in this school. There are always some people who like to eat fried chicken, French fries, or grilled skewers, and meat sandwiches. Even those "regular customers" of the Seven Canteens will change Appetite needs.

Under this change, even if other canteens can't get meat, they can at least have broth.

But in any case, the various changes in Jiang Da's cafeteria are always a good thing for the students of the school.

Who wouldn't want to be able to eat delicious food every day?
After standing in the hall for a while, Jiang Yu came to his senses amidst the deafening noise. He took a deep breath, walked through the crowded dining area, and prepared to go up to the second floor.

He originally thought that he would have to exert a lot of effort to squeeze through, but he didn't know that before he got close, someone among the students who squeezed in front spotted him, and all of them were extremely enthusiastic, and greeted him one after another:

"Morning Brother Jiang!"

"Have you had breakfast, brother?"

"Hello Senior Brother Jiang!"

"..."

While saying hello, these students retreated to both sides consciously, leaving a narrow temporary passage for Jiang Yu.

Although Jiang Yu was a little surprised, he didn't say much. With a smile on his face, he nodded to the students who greeted him, and hurried through, feeling inexplicably emotional.

The students in the school are still pure-minded. If you treat them better, they will naturally get closer to you.

This is also the reason why Jiang Yu is willing to stay in the school to open the cafeteria, he is reluctant to let go of this innocence.

It was still early, and no one came to the second floor. Jiang Yu was planning to find a place to sit down and play a game of chess to relax, when the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

He took it out and took a look. The call was from Xiong Tiansheng. Without thinking too much, he reached out and connected the call:

"Hello, Teacher Xiong?"

"Xiao Jiang, I've already been notified that the alumni I told you about will be coming this afternoon."

Xiong Tiansheng didn't say anything nonsense, and said directly,
"When they come over, they may go to the Seventh Canteen to meet you first. After all, according to seniority, they are all your senior brothers and sisters. They are also very curious about you and want to get to know you first.

How are you doing? Will you be busy today? "

"It's okay for now, it's about the same as usual."

Jiang Yu smiled, and asked again, "Is the reception banquet arranged by the school at night?"

"Yes, there are five people including the accompanying personnel."

Xiong Tingsheng replied, "When they arrive in the afternoon, I will accompany them to find you."

"it is good."

Jiang Yu didn't say much, and chatted with Xiong Tisheng for a few more words before hanging up the phone.

In fact, Xiong Zhisheng had already told him about this two days ago. These alumni were invited by the school to guide the training of the school sports team in order to prepare for the Provincial Games in July this year.

The provincial sports meeting is held every four years. It is said that in the last provincial sports meeting, Jiangzhou University also organized a sports team to participate in the competition, but the result was very few, while the Jiangzhou University of Finance and Economics and Jiangzhou Normal University next door have student stations On the podium.

There is a sophomore in the Sports College of Jiangzhou University of Finance and Economics who even won a championship medal in the 58kg Taekwondo competition. After the competition, he was directly recruited into the national team.

This made the principal of Jiangzhou University feel ashamed. Therefore, he made up his mind that this time the Provincial Games must show its style, results, and level.

It is precisely because of this that the School of Physical Education invites these outstanding alumni who have graduated and achieved results in international and domestic competitions to come back to assist in training.

Coincidentally, October is the [-]th anniversary of Jiangda University, and these alumni had to go back to their alma mater in advance.

When the two things came together, it made all this logical.

……

"This is so exaggerated. I clicked the reservation button as soon as I saw it was on, and a pop-up popped up, 'Dear, I'm so sorry'. I was stunned!"

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

"Upstairs, your swollen fingers are fine. I poked the screen and who will pay for it? The new mobile phone I just bought!"

"..."

Not long after eight o'clock, hundreds of new comments appeared in the comments section of the latest video posted by the Douyin account of "Jiang Daqi Canteen".

The resentment and unwillingness in the comments made people feel chills on the back and chills all over after reading it.

People who don't know the inside story may be surprised, but netizens who often visit "Jiang Daqi Canteen" know that this is just a normal phenomenon.

After all, today is Monday!
After waiting for such a long time, my heart was full of anticipation and longing, and I just waited to grab a chance to taste the legendary delicacy, but after spending so much effort, I still failed to get a private room. Could there be no resentment in my heart?
In addition to these complaints, of course, there are also those who snatched the box and "reported the good news":

"Ahahaha! I'm so happy! After so many snatches, I finally managed to snatch a private room! Two days later, I'll take my family to Jiang Daqi canteen to taste Master Xiaojiang's handicrafts!"

"Envy, envy, hate, I haven't snatched a private room since I opened the reservation call in dining room No. [-], I'm so unlucky!"

"I snatched it too! I snatched it too! Haha, I still can't believe my eyes. I've been unlucky, but I was able to snatch a box in dining room No. [-]!"

"Upstairs, don't be too happy too early, maybe all your luck in this life will be used up this time!"

"The friend upstairs is too hostile. You don't have to speak so viciously if you didn't grab the box. Maybe the landlord will have good luck from now on?"

"Well, let me ask the landlord, what day do you make an appointment, is it convenient to bring me one? I'll pay for it!"

"..."

Some netizens even made suggestions and began to make "suggestions" to Restaurant No. [-]:
"Hey, there are only four boxes for a meal, and there are too few boxes. It's not the amount that a normal restaurant should have at all. There are so many of us vying for it, so it's no wonder we can get it!"

"Perhaps this is a so-called high-end restaurant, which can only serve well when it receives few customers? I have heard that the dishes in dining room No. [-] are all made by Boss Xiao Jiang alone, and other people can't make that taste. !"

"Hey, it's gone in just over a second, which is too fast! I think it's better to open a takeaway instead of opening a private room for restaurant No. 1. It saves the time for receiving guests and saves more time." Make a little dish, let more people taste the delicacy made by Boss Xiaojiang."

"Takeaway? Are you sure the delivery man can bear it and won't steal food on the way?"

"I think, is it possible to make some food with a longer shelf life, such as cold and cooked food like stewed vegetables, vacuum-packed and put on the app for snap-up, and then express delivery..."

"The idea upstairs is brilliant! If anyone in dining room No. [-] sees it, tell Boss Xiaojiang immediately!!!"

"..."

"Boss, I think this proposal is feasible, what do you think?"

In the kitchen of dining room No. [-], after Hua Xiaoling handed over the printed box reservation information and order details to Jiang Yu, she blinked her big eyes and looked at him curiously.

"How do you see it? Of course you see it with your eyes."

Jiang Yu raised his eyelids to glance at Hua Xiaoling, then lowered his head and continued to look at the dishes ordered in several boxes at noon today.

"Oh, what I'm talking about is Douyin's suggestion, which is to sell cold dishes on the APP. Let's make some cold dishes and send them out by express after vacuum packaging..."

Hua Xiaoling is in charge of managing and operating the "Jiang Daqi Canteen" Douyin account. Naturally, she often pays attention to the comments of netizens. In order to increase the stickiness of fans, she occasionally selects some messages to reply to in order to achieve the purpose of strengthening interaction. .

On this point, Hua Xiaoling is still conscientious and has done a very good job.

Therefore, after the booking of the box was completed today, she took the time to scan the comments of netizens in the comment area. She did not expect to see such a "suggestion", which immediately made her overjoyed.

She thought that Jiang Yu would be very moved after hearing this suggestion, but she didn't seem to be interested at all.

"Too much trouble."

Jiang Yu didn't raise his head, he continued to look at the order menu in his hand, and said lightly,

"There are many and busy things in the cafeteria. Let's stop looking for things for ourselves. It's good enough to do the things at hand with peace of mind."

"Oh, okay."

Hua Xiaoling curled her lips. At this moment, in her heart, she unconsciously added a label to Jiang Yuxin - "lazy".

No one knows better than her how well-known restaurant No. 20 is outside. Not to mention anything else, the Douyin account of "Jiang Daqi Canteen" alone already has [-]+ followers!

For the 20+ followers, excluding most of those who join in the fun, and minus a small number of "black fans", there are tens of thousands of people who are willing to pay for restaurant No. [-].

If Jiang Yu really followed this suggestion and made some cold dishes and vacuum-packed them for sale, how much money would he make!
Seeing Jiang Yu looking at the menu seriously, Hua Xiaoling couldn't help curling her lips secretly, thinking to herself:
"It's a pity, if I could cook as delicious as his, I would have been rich and free long ago!
tired?What's the point of being tired of making money?When you earn enough money, you will have time to rest! "

After Hua Xiaoling left the kitchen, she was ready to continue the live broadcast. She was not as lazy as someone like Jiang. In order to make more money, she often broadcast live until midnight.

When she went downstairs, Du Guangning, Pei Guofu and others also came to the kitchen on the second floor.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the "lazy" Jiang Yu finally started to move...

……

At 2 p.m., the conference room on the second floor of Jiangda Sports College.

Xiong Tiansheng, deputy director of Jiang University's work office and director of the alumni work office, and Xing Yongyang, assistant to the dean of the School of Physical Education, made speeches respectively, expressing warm welcome to Chen Lei, Lin Yahui and Wang Dongkai, a group of well-known alumni who visited their alma mater for a return visit.

As an alumni representative, Chen Lei, the champion of the Women's Discus Throw World Championships, also gave a speech full of affection. She said that without the vigorous training and careful care of her alma mater, they would not have achieved their current results. Half of the championship medal is hers. There is also half of the alma mater.

Chen Lei said that after they graduated and went to work, they often cared about the situation of their alma mater, but due to the busy training and competition, it was difficult to come back and take a look.

During this return visit to their alma mater, they saw that the scenery of the alma mater is getting more and more beautiful, and the younger students are full of youth. They are very happy in their hearts. They also hope that the alma mater can flourish and work hard, so that the world will be full of peaches and plums, and tomorrow will be more brilliant!

After the symposium, accompanied by Xiong Tiansheng and Xing Yongyang, Chen Lei, Lin Yahui, Wang Dongkai and other alumni also went to the gymnasium, watched the training of the school sports team athletes, and had a cordial conversation with some athletes.

Chen Lei and others said that in the next period of time, they will formulate a scientific and reasonable training plan according to the physical condition and training intensity of the students, and strive to further consolidate their foundation and improve their performance before the Provincial Games. their grades.

On the way back from the gymnasium, Lin Yahui approached Xiong Tiansheng in a few steps, and asked with a smile:
"Mr. Xiong, the process that needs to be done is almost over. The rest of us will have to wait until tomorrow to go down to the sports team to guide those juniors and juniors. So can we go see Junior Brother Xiaojiang now?"

Lin Yahui is an active member of the Huaxia Athletics High Jump Team and has won many medals such as the Men's High Jump Asian Games Championship.

It was not the first time he had contact with Xiong Tisheng, who was in charge of alumni work, and the two of them knew each other very well, so they spoke more casually.

"Is there anything special about Junior Brother Jiang? I've heard you talk about it several times before, but I haven't had time to ask in detail."

Chen Lei is the champion of the Women's Discus Throw World Championships, but it was already ten years ago. Now she has already retired and works as the director of the Sports Management Center of Xiangchu Province in her hometown.

The Hunan-Chu Provincial Games had already been held last year, and it will take another three years for the next one to be held. Therefore, she is relatively free during this time, otherwise she would not have time to go back to her alma mater to take a look.

When she came from the airport with Lin Yahui and others in the car, she heard other people talking about Junior Brother Xiao Jiang, but they knew each other very well at that time, so she didn't have the nerve to ask.

Now, when she heard Lin Yahui talking about Junior Brother Xiao Jiang again, she couldn't bear it any longer, and looked over curiously.

"Sister Chen, you haven't heard about Junior Brother Xiao Jiang, have you?"

Before Lin Yahui had time to speak, Wang Dongkai who was beside him shouted, with a look of surprise on his face, he said with a smile,

"Junior Brother Xiaojiang has become so popular in the past six months, and news about him is everywhere on the Internet!

As long as you turn on your phone, you can't hide even if you want! "

This Wang Dongkai had won the men's 100-meter sprint track and field grand prix. He was younger than Lin Yahui, but his temper was much more out of touch, and he was surprised when he opened his mouth.

Chen Lei was taken aback by these words.

Is this junior brother Jiang so famous?Then why didn't I seem to have heard of it?

In fact, Chen Lei was so busy last year because of the provincial sports meeting, she didn't have the time to pay attention to these things outside, and she didn't even have a tickle on her mobile phone. Free to watch a short video?
Of course, the most important thing is that she doesn't particularly care about food, and she doesn't pursue any taste, as long as she can get by and fill her stomach, so if she really hears about Jiang Yu, she probably won't pay attention to it.

"Don't listen to Xiao Wang's nonsense, it's not that exaggerated, it's just that more people know about it on Douyin."

Seeing that Chen Lei was being bluffed, Xiong Tiansheng quickly took over the conversation and explained with a smile,
"Xiao Jiang is still a senior student of our Jiang University, but he will be studying in our school in the second half of the year. In the second half of last year, with the strong support of the school, he started his own business and contracted the school's seventh canteen. Loved by the majority of teachers and students.

Because the food in the canteen was delicious, it attracted many people from outside the school, so that the reputation of the seven canteens and Junior Jiang gradually spread on the Internet. "

"You mean, Junior Brother Xiao Jiang runs a school cafeteria while studying?"

Chen Lei's eyes widened suddenly, and she subconsciously asked,
"In other words, Junior Brother Xiao Jiang's cooking skills are quite good, and the food he cooks is quite delicious?"

Her alma mater, Jiang University, has cultivated many talents, but she has never heard of it. Jiang University can also train chefs, which is too incredible!

"It's not just good, this banquet for Junior Brother Xiao Jiang sold for a high price of 10 yuan!"

Lin Yahui also spoke at this time, his face was full of admiration,

"This sky-high price banquet, can it be delicious?"
