The boss cooks, and the bankrupt company opens a state banquet restaurant

Chapter 91 Cui Yufen: It’s okay if we can’t beat him, we can fight in a group!
  Several employees went to the urban sports center to play table tennis and billiards. Only Abao stayed in the lounge and turned on the live broadcast, drinking tea with Su Chen and Shang Mingke.

There are not many people in the live broadcast room, just one.

Lu Yongliang was so anxious that he directly connected with Abao's live broadcast room.

"Boss Su, hey, how are you doing?"

Su Chen was still kept in the dark. He didn't know that if Lu Yongliang hadn't taken the blame, this matter would have turned upside down.

"It's okay. How is the old man's health?"

"Okay." Lu Yongliang's voice was very loud, "When will you come to Hubei Province to play? I will prepare delicious food for you!"

Su Chen smiled and said, "I will go when I have time."

In addition to tasting several time-honored brands and copying a few recipes this time, the biggest gain was that Su Chen knew what Lu Yongliang did after returning to Hubei Province.

It doesn't matter whether the dish is famous or not, just adding Su Chen's name to the newly compiled recipe is pretty good.

It's not that Su Chen is eager to enter the chef circle, but that thing can show off!

I went back to buy that cookbook, picked out that page and framed it on the wall. Next to it was the master of state banquets, Lu Yongliang. How awesome!

"Uncle Lu, the guests are here, let's not talk about it for now." Shang Mingke waved his hand to Abao's head, indicating that Abao should hang up the phone.

From the window, you can see a car entering the yard downstairs.

An old lady wearing loose sportswear, followed by Wang Peixin.

Manager Wang was carrying large and small bags, and he didn’t know what was in them.

Su Chen looked at the old lady from a distance, "Old Shang, are you okay? Why do I feel like this old lady is so menacing?"

"It's okay." Shang Mingke suppressed a smile.

If you want to say that the person who came here is evil, it’s not Cui Yufen, it’s Lu Yongliang!

Shang Mingke could tell what was going on from the simple words just now. He knew his uncle very well, and Uncle Lu's encouragement was indispensable here.

‘Uncle Lu, you want to serve Lu cuisine in the capital in one pot’

Not long after, Shang Mingke and Su Chen went to the door to greet them.

Cui Yufen stood at the door and looked at Su Chen from top to bottom, "Young people are scary!"

It is hard to imagine that such an ordinary-looking man defeated his apprentice.

Oh no, I even had a [-]-[-] draw with Master Lu.

A few people sat down, Cui Yufen held his teacup, "Mr. Su, I heard about you cooking in Cuihua Building. I wonder where Mr. Su comes from?"

This was what she had been thinking about on the way here.

Shandong cuisine and Hubei cuisine are no longer related. How could one person appear to be proficient in both?

The key point is that Mr. Su is still so young. He planned to learn cooking from his mother's womb, so that's all, right?
  "I don't have a master, I just like delicious food and figure it out on my own." Su Chen still insisted on what he said to Lu Yongliang last time.

This is also true.

Every improvement was actually the result of Su Chen's concentrating on training in the practice room and slowly thinking about it.

I don’t have any plug-ins!
  "Oh." Cui Yufen responded, thinking that Boss Su was not honest either. He couldn't even find out who was a disciple.

"I was out of town a few days ago. I didn't know that such a master came to the capital. As soon as I came back, I brought my apprentice to visit you."

Su Chen twisted around and was really annoyed by an old lady in her [-]s or [-]s who kept yelling at her.

And I always feel that this old lady is not as down-to-earth as Lu Yongliang.

"I'm really planning to go back today, otherwise I would have paid you a visit." Su Chen also said politely.

Cui Yufen smiled, then suddenly his expression changed, he turned slightly and his tone became a little more serious, "Xiaoxin, what did you just say you wanted to ask Boss Su for advice?"

Wang Peixin:? ? ?

I don't make it!

I didn't say anything!

No, Master, why are you compiling it now?
  "I mean, uh, um." Wang Peixin was sweating profusely. "Oh, yes, I just want to ask why I can't get rid of the fishy smell of the chicken in an immature state after trying many times. Yes, that's it. !”

Su Chen put down the tea cup and said openly, "It's very simple. The critical value of chicken's maturity is 53 degrees. Above this temperature, the meat will start to react, but below this temperature it won't. You can think of this as soaking in cold water. An accelerated version."

what?
  Wang Peixin was stunned, "You mean, you turn the fire on and off from time to time just to keep the water at that temperature?"

Su Chen nodded, "Yes."

He was still unwilling to give up, "You mean, you don't use a thermometer, and then control the fire to keep the water at a constant temperature?"

Su Chen nodded again, "Yes."

hiss!
  I obviously saw it live at the time, but why does it always sound like I'm bragging now?
  Abao was not surprised by this. Boss Su used this technique to make fried chicken at Delicious Food. He also followed it for a while, and now he has learned it by [-]% to [-]%.

I glanced at the live broadcast room and saw that there were a lot of barrages in the live broadcast room with only one audience!

Lu Yongliang's typing speed is not fast, but the spoken words are automatically converted into text.

[Lu Yongliang: What? Hurry up and start fighting. Why are you studying the recipe? 】

[Lu Yongliang: Master Xiao Su can control the temperature like this now? Bullfrog Bullfrog! 】

[Lu Yongliang: You point the camera at Cui Yufen, let me see if she is angry, haha! 】

Abao turned the camera helplessly, feeling like he was Master's tool.

"Now that you've asked clearly, it's good. Your skills are not as good as others, so go back and practice hard." Cui Yufen said to his apprentice as if he was scolding him.

"That's what you said." Wang Peixin stood behind the master, not daring to raise his head.

After teaching his apprentice a lesson, Cui Yufen continued chatting with Su Chen with a smile.

On the way here, Wang Peixin mentioned that Su Chen had a company in Jingzhou. At that time, Cui Yufen felt it was strange.

Why does the chairman of a company have such superb cooking skills? Is this reasonable? Could it be that the chairman of their company cooks the food himself?
  Out of curiosity, Cui Yufen asked Wang Peixin to check the company online.

I didn't find out the specific situation, but I did find the company's Douyin account. The screen was filled with messages that made the old lady say in the car that this was not a serious company!

Fortunately, there are still several cooking videos in the account. After watching them repeatedly, the old lady is certain of one thing. This chairman really has two skills.

Cui Yufen was even more surprised when he learned more about the company's business.

How can anyone here open a restaurant like this? If you do this, can you make money?

So compared to Su Chen's cooking skills, Cui Yufen was more surprised by what was in this boss's head?

With such good craftsmanship, if you just open a restaurant and cook a few signature dishes to build a reputation, won't the money just go into your pocket?
  So Cui Yufen was very curious, "I heard that Master Xiao Su opened a catering company in Jingzhou?"

Su Chen didn't expect the old lady to talk to him about this, "It's a small company."

Cui Yufen took a breath and said, "Boss Su, I would like to ask a question. I also know a little bit about it. Can you please tell me that your delicious customization can only receive 2 to 3 waves of customers every day?"

Su Chen knew what the old lady wanted to say, "If it's a banquet with a lot of people, that's it."

"Fortunately, the rent in Jingzhou is not expensive and the salary is not high, so the company can still barely keep operating."

Hmm. It almost went bankrupt.

That's not what Cui Yufen wanted to hear. She asked, "Mr. Su, what I mean is, since you have such superb skills, why would you start such a company? Your skills can be used anywhere in the country." It’s a top-notch restaurant.”

She didn't dare to talk about other dishes, but Cui Yufen dared to talk about the fried chicken with soy sauce that made her disciples stupefied. If this could be sold in Cuihua Building.

It won’t be a problem to double the flow of people!
  Only people who are engaged in catering know how difficult it is for a restaurant to have a dish that is so delicious that I want to eat it again!

Hearing this, Su Chen paused.

He didn't know what to say. To be honest, it was just to clear out the inventory, and the company didn’t have any individual customers at all.

Facing this old lady with a very high status, Su Chen decided to be patient.

"I have always felt that real gourmet food must be accumulated over time. When I come to this business, I don't care about how much money I make, but I just want to be able to make dishes that truly satisfy customers. This is my original intention."

Gee!
  Shang Mingke crossed his legs and pinched his chin. Seeing Boss Su say this seriously, he felt awkward no matter how hard he heard it!
  Cui Yu laughed a few times, "There are not many people who can be as pure as Mr. Su. In that case."

Is the main event finally here?

Su Chen sat upright and listened carefully.

"It will be my birthday in a few days. A few days ago, Peixin and the others said they wanted to set up a table for a meal at Cuihua Building. If I say that I really want to go to Cuihua Building, won't the other disciples be sad?"

"I have had many apprentices over the years, and all of them are thinking about celebrating my birthday."

"When I think about it, it's not appropriate to go to anyone's house. I'm still worried about this matter when I come back this time. In my opinion."

Cui Yufen turned to look at Wang Peixin, "This capital is not very far from Jingzhou. Let's go to Boss Su's place and save you brothers from having to quarrel!"

Wang Peixin said expressionlessly: "I will follow your orders."

In fact, my heart has long been numb!

Why are you blaming me again? We clearly agreed to go to Quanjude, and don’t you go there every year for your birthday?
  Because Master Shi has worked in Quanjude all his life, Cui Yufen would go to Quanjude every year on his birthday. On several occasions, even the apprenticeship ceremony was held there.

"That's very welcome!" Su Chen, a client, was overjoyed before it was too late. He stood up and shook hands with Cui Yufen, "When is your birthday? How many apprentices are there? I can prepare in advance."

Cui Yufen smiled and said, "My birthday is about half a month away. I don't have many apprentices. Counting the last disciple I accepted this year, there are forty of them."

Su Chen:?
  Cui Yufen added, "Many of them are busy elsewhere and may not be able to make it. Just count them as twenty."

Good guy!
  Only now did Su Chen know that the old lady had not let him go, but that she was holding back a big trick!
  Cui Yu's points were not finished yet, "I am a descendant of Mr. Wang Chunlong. When I came to the capital from Hebei Province, I learned Shandong cuisine, and my whole family has been Shandong cuisine. Since you are customizing delicious food, then Then let’s eat Shandong cuisine.”

Su Chen wanted to refuse.

This is when I go to someone else’s restaurant to cause trouble, and they also want to bring their apprentices to my company to cause trouble!

There are more than [-] Shandong cuisine masters, I dare not say all of them, at least half of them are prominent figures in the chef world. Going to delicious food to taste my Shandong cuisine is not putting people on the fire to roast them?
  I, Su Chen, am not a fool!
  I will never agree!
  Seeing Boss Su open his mouth to speak, Cui Yufen held Su Chen's hand and patted it, "Boss Su, don't think too much about the budget. All of my apprentices are very rich! I asked them to contribute two thousand each, you Do you think it will work?"

Two thousand per person is not much to celebrate an old lady's birthday.

But for twenty people, that’s forty thousand!

According to the rules of Delicious Food, a [-]% service charge will be added, totaling [-]!

Su Chen snorted coldly, without even thinking about it, "Of course that's no problem! All the staff at Delicious Food welcome you all at all times!"

Cui Yufen nodded with satisfaction, chatted with Shang Mingke and others for a while, put down the gifts and left the Urban Construction Group.

As soon as the person left, Abao's heart almost jumped out of his chest when he saw the barrage in the live broadcast room.

[Lu Yongliang: What’s going on? Why didn't we start a fight? 】

[Lu Yongliang: Cui Yufen is very ruthless. Is he afraid that he can’t defeat him alone, so he wants to bring someone to defeat Boss Su? 】

[Lu Yongliang: Damn it! Cui Yu belongs to this lineage and accounts for half of the Shandong cuisine chefs. This person is really ruthless! If I had known earlier, I really shouldn’t have teased you, hey! 】

[Lu Yongliang: It’s getting more and more lively. The old man also wants to celebrate Yufen’s birthday, hahaha! 】

Liu Abao quickly kicked the old man out of the live broadcast room, thinking you should stop talking.

If Boss Su finds out about this, you will not be in Jingzhou, but I will be!
  Do you want a white-haired person to send a black-haired person?
  After seeing off Cui Yufen's master and apprentice, Shang Mingke said sheepishly, "I'm sorry, Boss Su, I didn't expect to cause you such a big trouble."

Su Chen shook his head, "This has nothing to do with you. I can refuse."

Shang Mingke said softly, "If possible, I will also give a gift to Mrs. Cui then."

"Don't come and join in the fun!" Su Chen shook his head, "I'm afraid this may be a bit troublesome. Fortunately, there's only half a month left, so I have to get ready quickly."

"Boss Su." Lao Shang rarely held his hand, "If you can do a good job this time, I dare not say that your name and your company will be mentioned in the whole country, at least in this part of the capital. "

Shang Mingke gave a thumbs up, "Come on!"

On the way back to Jingzhou, Su Chen simply asked everyone to buy business seats.

He didn't want to deal with those bad things anymore, he was already annoyed enough now.

‘Shandong cuisine, Shandong cuisine’

'It's not just about cooking.'

Su Chen felt like his head was going to explode. He tried his best to stay calm and decided to take a nap first.

Jingzhou City.

Seven days have passed. Ling Shuyu stood at the elevator entrance on the second floor, looking at the rough floor that had now turned into what she had planned.

"Mr. Ling, I just showed the videos and photos I took to the parents, and everyone was very satisfied." Director Li is also here.

In order to solve the problem of his son's study, he really took great pains.

For this decoration work, Li Mingtao contacted nearly 30 parents in the group. Whether it was materials or labor, almost all of it was done by the parents themselves.

In the end, the decoration of the 500-square-meter floor only cost about [-] yuan per square meter.

The [-] yuan account was finally fully advanced by the parent in charge of the renovation. Ling Shuyu signed an interest-free loan contract with the parent in the name of the company, promising to pay it all back in one year. .

Under Ling Shuyu's urging, hundreds of workers worked almost continuously and completed the project in seven days!
  Of course, this also has a lot to do with the overall simplicity of the decoration.

Except for tiling, which is a bit more laborious, almost all other work can be done with ready-made installations.

Since the completion of the project was announced, parents have come to take a walk from time to time. Some parents have even selected beds for their children and laid out the mattresses!

"Director Li, you have worked hard these days."

"It's not as hard as yours." Li Mingtao finally knew what it meant to be a workaholic.

Ling Shuyu has not been home at all this week. Often in the middle of the night, when the workers are just sitting on the floor to drink a glass of water, Ling Shuyu will take the elevator and come in leisurely from the 19th floor.

The workers all admired this little girl.

They work in two shifts, and this girl supervises two shifts by herself, so awesome!

If Ling Shuyu hadn't been keeping such an eye on him, the construction period would have been pushed back by at least a week.

Li Mingtao was still imagining that it would be easier for his son to study this time. When he came to work in the morning, he would take his child to kindergarten.

At noon, my son comes here to have a meal and take a nap, and then he brings it back to his son when he gets off work in the evening. It is perfect, even more perfect than before!

Thanks to Boss Su, he agreed to his plan.

Ling Shuyu's sudden words interrupted Li Mingtao's fantasy, "Director Li. If my guess is correct, your trial contract at Xinghui is about to end. It's time to make a choice."

Li Mingtao was stunned.

That's right, as Meili Lai's rent starts in the new year, his contract will be terminated immediately, and Xinghui's contract will be converted into a formal employment contract.

Hmm. It seems like it’s really time to make a choice!

So heavy!
  "Well, I'll think about it carefully." Li Mingtao had nothing to hide from Mr. Ling. Ling Shuyu had threatened him with this matter when he was at Xinghui.

The two chatted for a few more words, and Ling Shuyu looked at his watch.

"Ha, it's time for them to come back, boss."

"Well, I'll leave first." Li Mingtao was very sensible and didn't want to meet Su Chen at this time. He was also afraid of embarrassment.

The two entered two elevators respectively, one going up and one going down.

Back on the 19th floor, Ling Shuyu touched his stomach and said, "Damn it, I've been starving and losing weight these days since the boss has been away!"

Seeing that I managed the second floor all by myself, the boss should at least reward me with a good meal, right?
  Um.
  I want to think about how to hint him then!
