Return to the era: starting from the state-owned hotel

Chapter 35 Little Fatty’s Background
When Fang Jidong said this, the chubby little fat man was so ashamed that he couldn't even lift his head.

At this time, among everyone, only Su Qingfeng was left uncommented.

Fang Jidong quickened his pace slightly and came to Su Qingfeng.

He looked at the plate of spicy and sour potato shreds in front of him. He first picked up one with restraint, then put it into his mouth and chewed it carefully.

The moment he bit into his mouth, his eyes suddenly lit up. Immediately, with a sullen face, he picked up a few more chopsticks, stuffed them into his mouth, and started chewing quickly.

Facing the slightly surprised looks from the people around him, Fang Jidong felt regretful and put down his chopsticks.

I heard him clear his throat, with a faint smile on his face, "You did a good job. At your level, it is more than enough to pass the seventh level chef exam."

"You have a good talent for seasoning. In this home-cooked dish, you have the right combination of sour, spicy, and salty flavors without being too harsh."

"But what really surprised me was that you soaked the potatoes in cold water and dropped vinegar on them, so that the starch on the surface of the potatoes could be washed away without burning the pot, making the shredded potatoes crispy."

"And when you made the final seasoning, you chose mature vinegar instead of white vinegar. Did you also consider that the vinegar smell of white vinegar is too strong, and the finished product will be too sour, while mature vinegar can maintain the right sourness."

Obviously, Fang Jidong had a very high opinion of Su Qingfeng, which made other people present feel envious and jealous.

However, when they heard the subsequent analysis, their mentality changed greatly.

If Fang Jidong hadn't been present, some might even have screamed in surprise.

They didn't even notice these small details!
Fang Jidong happily put a check mark behind Su Qingfeng's name in the notebook.

"Little fat man, you and Su Qingfeng will leave later. I will write a certificate for you and seal it."

Su Qingfeng was stunned.

The process of issuance of this certificate... is not very valuable.

The little fat man also looked around, his eyes seeming suspicious.

Until the rest of the group cheered and left, Fang Jidong also took out two certificates.

Flamboyant characters.

thump.

A bright red seal was struck, and it was done.

Fang Jidong raised his head and noticed the little fat man's suspicious gaze. He raised his eyebrows as if he could see into his heart:

"What's wrong? Do you think this certificate is not of a good standard?"

The little fat man hesitated and said nothing, but the look on his face revealed everything.

Fang Jidong said angrily, "As a fourth-level chef, I can write you a certificate, which is more than enough. These days, everything must be frugal! Where can there be so many bells and whistles?"

After saying that, he stuffed the certificates into the two of them, and then moved his eyes to the cloth shoes on Su Qingfeng's feet, with an expression of envy and emotion:

"Is this made by your family? It's really nice. It seems like only family members can make these old cloth shoes."

The little fat man was a little confused.

These rag shoes are shabby and rustic, what’s so good about them?
He wouldn't even be willing to wear it if it was given to him for free.

Perhaps seeing the little fat man's confusion, Fang Jidong tapped the back of his hand with a pen and said quietly, "It's because he is young and doesn't understand anything. Generally, if you wear these kind of cloth shoes, your family will have thousand-layer soles."

"Thousand-layer soles are time-consuming and labor-intensive. Think about it, how much effort does it take to fold so many pieces of cloth together and then prick them down with such a thin needle? If you want to make it into an insole, it also takes a lot of effort. How many times have you pricked like this?”

Hearing this, Su Qingfeng also laughed.

He has never felt out of place or even inferior to others because of these shoes.

Besides, isn’t this how ordinary people dress up in this day and age?
He said with a somewhat proud tone, "My sisters and I made this together. The clothes I am wearing were also sewed for me by my sister-in-law and my aunt. When I came here, my mother and I even forced money on me." and votes.”

Fang Jidong became more and more envious.

"You are so lucky. What's the use of making more money? The family lives happily and happily. Even if there are any difficulties, the family members will work hard. Are they still afraid that they will not be able to live well? "

After saying that, he added with a smile, "Xiao Su, work hard, your good days are ahead."

The little fat man on the side also fell silent.

He felt that his previous words of "bumpkin" were like a loud slap in the face.

Why should he look down on Su Qingfeng?
Why do you think he is stupid?

He has superb cooking skills, and with this ability, he is popular wherever he goes.These days, cooks have a high status and are well paid.

With Su Qingfeng like this, still worried about not making money?
I used to dislike him for being a country boy, but at least he has a good relationship with his family and there are few bullshit things that can ruin things.

Instead, my own home...

The little fat man became even more envious when he thought about it.

He leaned forward, with a shy face, and smiled, "Comrade Su, look at me. My name is Guo Sheng. I live here in the provincial capital, next to the pig factory's family compound. Do we know each other?"

When Su Qingfeng heard "pig factory", his expression changed slightly.

Then, a smile appeared on his face naturally, "Okay, how about we go and eat here?"

The little fat man's smile became even more cheerful, "Come on, come on, I'm the boss, and I'll treat you to food this time."

Fang Jidong looked at their backs and was [-]% sure that Su Qingfeng was not holding anything back.

But he didn't point it out, instead he smiled and said goodbye to them.

Sly boy.

He smiled inwardly.

……

State-owned hotels in provincial capitals are just different.

When the door opened, the crowds of people poured in, almost filling the huge restaurant to capacity.

Su Qingfeng and Guo Sheng were both cooks and very naughty.

Even so, after ordering two plates, it was hard to find fault.

But at the dinner table, as the two of them were talking, the topic turned a corner.

"Brother Su, I won't call you gay, that's foreign. You said your home is in the countryside, do you have any good things? I'm just like this, what about pigs, canned yellow peaches... My family is not lacking either, and we are all tired of eating.”

If outsiders knew this, they would think that the fat man was bragging again.

But Su Qingfeng knew that he really wasn't.

From his previous words, we can know that Guo Sheng’s father kills pigs in a pig factory, his mother works in a food factory, and his sisters have all married, also to people from the city. Now he is the only one left in the family. Single seedling.

This kind of treatment is simply worse than Su Qingfeng's status at home.

Su Qingfeng was really moved.

I'm afraid I won't be able to take the fresh pork back.

But it can be completely replaced with canned meat.

He ostensibly pondered for a while, but actually rummaged through the system warehouse, and he actually found something.

"I have a pound of chicken fat mushrooms and two pounds of thick leg mushrooms here. Do you want them?"

Chanterelle mushrooms and bolete mushrooms are also known as chanterelles and white porcini mushrooms in later generations.

Very few people make chanterelles these days because they absorb oil, and if you want to make them delicious, it takes too much oil and water.

But if it is done well, after frying, if you bite into it, the juice will come out like chicken fat.

White porcini mushrooms are quite popular because they taste very much like meat. To put it bluntly, they are a bit like a meal replacement for meat.

At the same time, white porcini mushrooms have good taste and rich nutritional value. The only drawback is the low yield.

Guo Sheng is a good eater, and his eyes lit up when he heard about these two types of bacteria.

This thing is of no use to people who don’t have enough to eat.

But for him, it is better than any pork or canned food.

This new buddy can do it!

He thought he would be taken advantage of, but he didn't expect him to be such a good person.

It’s someone worth further contact with!
　Second update, see you tomorrow!
