After marrying sick Yangzi, I made my whole family rich

Chapter 358 Recruiting and accepting disciples

In the end, they signed a contract to open the next store in Jiangnan. The specific location and time were uncertain, but with the golden booklet Lu He gave, Xu Mengxiao basically didn't have to worry.

"Okay, half of the dividends from this store are yours."

Xu Mengxiao blew on the ink that had not yet dried and handed one of the deeds to Zhang Bin.

Zhang Bin was so excited that his fingers were trembling. This was really like a carp leaping over the dragon's gate and turning over!

Not only did he get a job in the royal kitchen that had honored his ancestors for eight generations, but he also received a reward that was unimaginable.

He also gained a sustainable source of income and participated in the Taoyuan Township business!
He knew that his contribution only accounted for a very small part of it...

Zhang Bin took a deep breath and finally made up his mind, "I, if I can be of any help, you must not be polite to me!"

"...If it has something to do with the Imperial Kitchen, I will try to take root there."

This is not something you just talk about. Even if he hasn't been exposed to it, he can still imagine the hardships and dangers involved.

The situation in today's world is not stable enough. It is vaguely heard that the fifth prince, the second prince, and the prince are competing for the title of heir. There is also a leftist prime minister who is stirring up trouble. Your Majesty still has an unstable temperament...

The palace must be extremely unsafe, especially when it comes to the various dining rooms for eating and drinking.

In addition, he also felt that Xu Mengxiao and Lu He were not simple, and they wanted something so good from him.

But he is willing to do so. Without them, he would not be where he is now!

Xu Mengxiao's eyebrows straightened immediately. This was exactly what she wanted, but she never made it clear.

Zhang Bin could see it and express his position in time, which made her feel relieved.

If a stupid person is inserted, not only will it not help them, it will also implicate them and bring disaster to them!
"Okay, you can talk about it slowly. I'll go with Ah Cai to deal with the opening of Taoyuan Township first. I wonder if your majesty can send the title to it before tomorrow." Zhang Linjiang said.

It turned out that when Cao Cao arrived, they had only been to Xindian in Taoyuan Township for a short while when an eunuch beside Emperor Daxing sent his calligraphy treasure.

After Xu Mengxiao and others knelt down to thank them, they looked at it for a moment——

Not to mention, the words "Taoyuan Township" are written very well!
I don't know whether it was due to that artificial performance, but several people saw that Emperor Daxing had used the snacks, and not only sent the words over in time.

It is written with great momentum and elegance. Even people who don't know about it will stop and take a look when they see this word.

Sure enough, a person who can become an emperor, no matter how mediocre he is, is nothing like ordinary people.

"Then hurry up and frame it as soon as possible. I have already inquired about the shop where the plaque can be made and paid a deposit." Lin Cai said with a smile.

"Good guy, Uncle Lin, you are a prophet!" Xu Mengxiao joked, and everyone was in a good mood.

Taking advantage of this, she glanced at Zhang Bin.

Several people left one after another. It was obvious that Xu Mengxiao wanted to do something, so they didn't bother them.

Zhang Bin followed Xu Mengxiao to the tea room on the second floor of Taoyuan Township, feeling nervous and uneasy.

Xu Mengxiao poured a cup of tea for Lu He and said, "I want to accept you as my disciple. Do you have any intention?"

"W-what?" Zhang Bin was caught off guard. This was exactly what he wanted. Was it so easy to get it?
"You don't want to?" Xu Mengxiao was surprised.

"No, how is that possible!" Zhang Bin shouted excitedly and knelt down with a thud.

"You, you are willing to accept me as your disciple, I, I am so grateful!"

"Like Lin Gui, you not only have the talent for cooking, but you also love cooking. You can learn it as soon as you teach it. You don't need to put any effort on my part. You are a good seedling!" Xu Mengxiao praised her without hesitation. This was what she was thinking.

Zhang Bin instantly became confused, thinking that he had incurred enemies because he worked as a cook for others, and was also blamed for not eating the food he cooked. He even caused his employer to lose business.

He lost confidence for a time and really thought that what he cooked was terrible.If Boss Zhang hadn't appreciated him and rescued him from his enemies, he might have lost his life!
If Xu Mengxiao had not given him this opportunity and taught him what to do, he would not have changed his destiny in such a short period of time and embarked on a path to "reaching the sky"...

Zhang Bin quickly calmed down and kowtowed to her three times solemnly.

Xu Mengxiao didn't care about the apprenticeship procedures and rituals, "Okay, from now on you will be my second apprentice."

No, Old Man Chen is the second apprentice, but he only has medical skills, not cooking skills.

"With your cooking skills, you will definitely have no problem staying in the Imperial Kitchen. But I heard that the competition in Daxing's Imperial Kitchen is very fierce. There are several levels of imperial chefs, such as three, six, and nine. You have to climb up step by step before you can be successful." More rights and freedoms."

Zhang Bin was shocked. This palace was indeed not a place for ordinary people to stay.

If he doesn't mix well in there, I'm afraid he will be the one to take the blame!

He swallowed and said, "Please master, please show me a clear path!"

"You won this kind of competition, and His Majesty still has some impressions of you. You have to seize the advantage now and consolidate his favor for you." Xu Mengxiao broke off the analysis with him.

"So I will teach you a few related dishes in the past few days, involving health preservation and medicinal diet. However, at this time, speaking skills are more important than cooking skills."

Zhang Bin became even more nervous. Was this asking him to continue to deceive His Majesty?If the left prime minister comes to expose him again, he may not be so lucky!

"So you have to firmly believe that what you do is to maintain health and longevity. It is actually a fact. There is nothing to be afraid of." Xu Mengxiao said indifferently.

Zhang Bin, "..."

Miraculously, he felt a lot more at ease. Originally, he would rather believe this kind of thing, and His Majesty was still happy with it.

"After you have dealt with this first hurdle, settled down temporarily, and been appreciated by His Majesty, I heard that there will be a chance to leave the palace. In this way, I will have the opportunity to teach you subsequent cooking skills."

"With these cooking skills, I believe you can continue to climb up. The higher you climb, the greater your power! But I make it so easy. You can only survive the dangers by yourself."

Hearing this, Lu He's fingers on the table moved slightly, but he said nothing.

However, Xu Mengxiao was so responsive that she was keenly aware of this subtle change in him, and then lowered her eyes to think about it.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?"

Zhang Bin was completely confused. He was originally just a chef with a little reputation, but now he can dominate the imperial kitchen with his cooking skills?

It has to be said that Xu Mengxiao's few words aroused the ambition in his heart.

The ambition of being oppressed but unable to refute and could only watch and let others bully me, but now I can stand up and control my own destiny!

"I'm temporarily...waiting! Is there anything Master wants me to do?" He said anxiously, wanting to show some value so that he could get corresponding help from Xu Mengxiao.

"There is nothing to do, but there are people in the court who are easy to do. With the current situation, who knows what will happen in the future. If someone can tell me what happened, I can feel at ease a lot." Xu Mengxiao said cryptically .

There was really nothing she wanted him to do at the moment. If she really wanted to do anything, a cook, even a first-class royal cook, couldn't do much, and it could easily lead to death.

Not to that point yet, far away!
Xu Mengxiao didn't realize that she had been thinking about this matter...

"The top priority is to stay in the imperial kitchen safely. I'm afraid that the second prince or the left prime minister will make things difficult for you. But if the latter bites your cook and won't let go, then he is not the left prime minister."

"In short, be careful in sailing the ten thousand year ship. If something happens to you, it will no longer be your fault. You represent our Taoyuan Township, and you are also my apprentice. A single move can affect the whole body!"

Zhang Bin's heart was shocked, but he felt a warm current in his heart for no reason.

Although it was so dangerous, the master chose to believe him, tied their interests together, and accepted him as his disciple...

I must not let her and Taoyuan Township down!
After Zhang Bin left with his heart full of worries, Lu He asked, "Do you trust him so much?"
