Rebirth: Starting from the Cafeteria

Chapter 191 I'll do whatever you ask me to do
Du Shaojie didn't even turn his back when speaking to Zhong Fuxiang, which surprised Zhong Fuxiang.

In an era when the average monthly salary was only a few dozen yuan, 1000 yuan was definitely a huge sum of money, and it was generally difficult for ordinary families to come up with such a large sum of cash.

So some people despise "self-employed individuals" on the one hand, and envy them on the other.

What is despised is the identity of "self-employed" and what is envied is the income of "self-employed".

"Manager Du, I feel so unworthy of this."

Dong Jun was deeply moved. He was a stubborn person. Since he recognized Du Shaojie, he would do his best to do the job assigned by him.

Regardless of whether it is his job or not.

I didn't expect that my performance was seen and remembered by others, and today I was given a big surprise.

"Don't be so pretentious. Just take it. There are many things that require money for marriage. I will give it to you later as my gift."

Du Shaojie glared at Dong Jun. This guy has been fond of listening to storytelling recently. What has he learned?
The matter was settled, and Du Shaojie took the time to give Dong Jun a big red envelope containing 1000 yuan the next day.

On the wedding day, two top chefs, Du Shaojie and Zhong Fuxiang, were in charge of the cooking, which greatly elevated the quality of the wedding banquet.

"I'm in for a treat today!"

Dong Jun was very concerned about his reputation, so he had already spread the names of the wedding chefs, top chef Du Shaojie and top chef Zhong Fuxiang.

The guests were overjoyed because they usually didn't have the chance to dine in a big restaurant.

Today, thanks to Dong Jun’s wedding, they can also taste the chef’s cooking, and their anticipation is instantly high.

Du Shaojie and Zhong Fuxiang did not disappoint everyone. Every dish was carefully crafted, making some people almost swallow their tongues.

The wedding banquet made everyone feel very satisfied and felt that this trip was worth it. It would be difficult to eat such delicious food again in the future. How many times can ordinary people have the opportunity to eat out in a year? Not to mention going to a big restaurant to eat dishes cooked by a chef.

After finishing their work here, Du Shaojie and Zhong Fuxiang went to the private restaurant.

There were still three tables left in the evening. Although both of them were a little tired, they still gritted their teeth and persevered until the end of get off work.

"Manager Du, goodbye!"

"Manager Du, please ride slower."

Du Shaojie left the restaurant and rode his bike back home.

He didn't want to move at all at this moment. After washing up, he went into the room, lay down and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, someone from the snack bar delivered a telegram saying that Liang Meiqin and her mother had booked tickets for tomorrow's flight and would be returning home soon.

The telegram only contained a few brief words and did not mention the details of the medical treatment in Hong Kong.

It was not until the next day when Du Shaojie and Liang's father brought the person back that he asked in detail about the trip to Hong Kong.

"Sister Yu Mo took good care of us. She accompanied me to the hospital several times during this visit. The situation is neither good nor bad. Through medication and treatment, my vision has recovered a little, but it's still blurry."

Liang Meiqin looked in good spirits, just a little thinner.

Before she went to Hong Kong, she could see faint light in her eyes, and the doctor said there was still some hope of recovery.

The doctor helped her develop a treatment and recovery plan. Before she came back, her condition had improved. She could not only see the light, but also the vague shadows of objects.

She can't do complex movements yet, but she can basically take care of herself in a familiar small space.

"That's great! Mikoto, your condition is getting better little by little. We should have faith. Maybe one day you will suddenly regain your eyesight."

Du Shaojie felt very happy after listening to what the other party said.

Liang Meiqin is no longer blind, but her eyesight is extremely poor and cannot be corrected with glasses.

He thought this was a good start, and as long as the other party persisted in taking medication and doing recovery training, there was hope of recovery.

Of course, the probability of recovery is definitely low, but there is hope after all.

"Thanks to your good words, I am also looking forward to the day when I can see it completely."

Liang Meiqin knew that her family had done their best for this trip to Hong Kong. Not only did they empty their savings, but they also owed a lot of foreign debts.

In fact, the doctor asked her to go for a check-up once a year, but considering the actual situation at home, she didn't say it.

"You just came back, take a good rest, I'll come see you later."

Du Shaojie sat for a while and then stood up to say goodbye.

He planned to write a letter to Yu Mo later to ask about the specific situation. After all, she was the one who contacted the hospital and the doctors, so she would have more comprehensive information.

It was already afternoon, so Du Shaojie rode his bike directly to the snack bar.

"Manager Du, are you busy?"

"Master Dong, is there something wrong? Wait for me, I'll check the accounts quickly."

Du Shaojie was reconciling accounts with the finance department when Dong Yunxian walked in from outside.

He greeted him and quickly finished the work at hand before going to the office with him.

"Manager Du, I'd like to ask you for help with something. My apprentice Yu Jianxin wants to be transferred to the snack bar, is that okay?" The two had a good relationship, and after Dong Yunxian sat down, he didn't waste any words and directly stated his purpose.

His apprentice Yu Jianxin was transferred to the Chinese restaurant, but the current situation is that the Chinese restaurant is full of great chefs, and a second-level chef has no chance to cook in the kitchen and is more like doing odd jobs.

There is no room for advancement in the Chinese restaurant, the salary is low and the bonuses are low, so it is better to just follow Du Shaojie.

Following Du Shaojie, at least you can get some benefits.

Yu Jianxin once saw Du Shaojie as a threat and was very jealous of him, but as Du Shaojie made rapid progress, he no longer had any thoughts because the gap was too big.

"I have no objection. As long as he obeys my arrangements when he comes, everything will be fine."

Of course Du Shaojie agreed. The other party was a second-level chef like Dong Jun, with solid basic skills and not too old.

However, he remembered that Yu Jianxin seemed to be a man with a bad temper, so he said the ugly words in advance.

"Of course, he comes here to work hard. If he dares to disobey, I will beat him up. Thank you, Manager Du. I will treat you to a drink this weekend."

Dong Yunxian achieved his goal and left happily.

Within two days, Yu Jianxin was transferred to the snack bar.

Du Shaojie asked Dong Jun to teach Yu Jianxin first, and when he got familiar with him, he would give him the task of cooking small stir-fries. In this way, Dong Jun would have some free time and could arrange his own time.

To be honest, Yu Jianxin’s cooking skills are even better than Dong Jun’s, and he replaced the other in just a few days.

"Master Yu, how do you feel after coming here for a while?"

Du Shaojie took some time to call Yu Jianxin to his office, wanting to have a chat with him.

"I feel great! Manager Du, don't worry, I will put myself in the right position and do whatever you ask me to do. I will never cause any trouble for you. In addition, I am still a little rusty in [making big plate chicken], please give me more guidance."

Yu Jianxin's attitude was very sincere and his posture was very humble.

This made Du Shaojie look at him with admiration. The days of youth and recklessness will eventually pass. How many people will not bow to reality?
After this conversation, the relationship between the two became much more harmonious. Whenever Yu Jianxin had any questions, he would ask Du Shaojie for advice. It seemed that he had really let go of his worries.

Du Shaojie soon received a reply from Yu Mo. The other party did not say much in the letter, but only emphasized that Liang Meiqin needed to have a follow-up examination once a year.

Yu Mo said that it doesn’t matter if you don’t come to Hong Kong for a follow-up examination, but you must go to a large hospital in the mainland.

At the end of the letter, Yu Mo once again invited Du Shaojie to visit Hong Kong and said that if she had the chance she would go to the other side of the ocean to visit Wang Liwen.

Du Shaojie's impression of Mo had changed a lot, and he thought, should he go there sometime? He was not interested in anything else, but if he really went there, he could buy a shop.

There's nothing he can do about it, he just has a special liking for shops.

night.

There was only one table of customers in the private restaurant.

Feng Qingsong is hosting a banquet for an important guest here today, and the other party has informed him in advance, so Du Shaojie simply stopped accepting reservations for tonight and served the other party exclusively.

This situation is relatively rare. He has explained it clearly to the waitresses, and they all know what to do.

There are a total of 8 hot dishes, 4 cold dishes and a soup on the table.

The dish is not very common in the local area, but Du Shaojie and Zhong Fuxiang can cook it. This is why Feng Qingsong opened his mouth. If another customer made such a request, they would not care at all.

[Boiled dried shredded pork], [Squirrel mandarin fish], [Dongpo pork elbow], [Lion's head with crab meat], [Sweet and sour spare ribs], [Steamed abalone with vermicelli and garlic sauce], [Roasted sea cucumber with scallions], and [Silky tofu].

The hot dishes are mainly Huaiyang cuisine, probably to cater to the guests' tastes.

Du Shaojie and Zhong Fuxiang spent two days just gathering the ingredients, especially the mandarin fish, which was hard to find. In the end, Du Shaojie spent one exchange point to exchange it from the mall.

"Manager Du, I'm really tired today. I'm really tired! It seems that I have to continue learning even though I'm old. Otherwise, it will be embarrassing if I can't cook the dishes well next time when customers order them."

Fortunately, both of them have good skills and completed today's task perfectly.

After the guests left, Feng Qingsong also expressed his gratitude to Du Shaojie and Zhong Fuxiang. He said that the guests were very satisfied with the meal today and kept praising the chef of the restaurant.

Feng Qingsong left soon as well, and Zhong Fuxiang couldn't help but sigh.

"Master Zhong, normally the dishes we make will not go beyond the menu. Today is a special case, please bear with me. To be honest, I am not good at Huaiyang cuisine, so I will have to practice more in the future."

One is [Boiled Dried Silky Vermicelli] and the other is [Lion Head with Crab Roe], which Du Shaojie had never made before.

All he knew was theoretical knowledge, but luckily the menu was decided in advance. He had been working on these two dishes for the past few days, and whenever he had some free time, he would immerse himself in simulation scenarios and train hard.

If he had enough time left, he would definitely spend the exchange points and time to instantly raise the overall evaluation of the two dishes to the level of "leaving a delicious taste in the mouth".

For tonight's table, he even consumed 1000 hours of work, and the remaining time was running out again, with only a pitiful 1900 hours left.

Perhaps it was because he had just broken through the ceiling of his culinary skills, he had not been able to make any "upscale" dishes in the past period of time. Without rewards, there was no income.

The same thing happened during the exam. There was no reward for using redemption points and time to upgrade the level of dishes on that day.

And today, he felt that he would gain a lot.
