Rebirth: Starting from the Cafeteria

Chapter 256 Are you a chef or a butcher?

It has been a long time since we last met. When we came to Du Shaojie's private kitchen again, we couldn't help but sigh that his cooking skills had improved greatly.

Moreover, they didn't recognize half of the dishes on the table.

Du Shaojie introduced them to everyone and specifically told the stories and changes of these old dishes.

"Shaojie, you are always able to surprise us. Come on, don't just focus on eating. I'll raise a glass of wine, let's drink it!"

Cai Jing sighed and then clinked glasses with everyone.

After Qin Lu had eaten and drunk her fill, she tactfully said goodbye early. She actually felt a little uncomfortable sitting here. It was simply because she felt she didn't fit in with everyone.

Of course, this does not include Du Shaojie.

After Qin Lu left, Cai Jing, Liu Ying and others spoke more casually.

Du Shaojie just listened with a smile and didn't interrupt. He was not unfamiliar with things within the system, but he wasn't very interested in them either.

"Shaojie, you can reserve a large private room for me at Xichuan Restaurant at noon tomorrow, is that ok?"

Everyone was having a great time chatting, and Cai Jing finally remembered the important business.

Du Shaojie nodded. He would not offend the other party for such a small matter. Regardless of whether there was a private room at that time, he would find a way to handle this matter.

Liu Ying and others said goodbye and left, and Du Shaojie drove Cai Jing back to the hotel.

"Shaojie, I've got you a piece of land. When you go back and take a look, if you're satisfied, we can go through the formalities. However, starting next year, there won't be any such good things. Shenzhen City will establish a land auction system. Do you understand?"

It was not until this time that Cai Jing talked about what Du Shaojie was most concerned about.

Du Shaojie understood what he meant. It seemed that the Shenzhen branch of Xichuan Restaurant would be found soon.

"Understood! You should get some rest. I should leave too."

Du Shaojie immediately said goodbye, and Cai Jing nodded and did not keep him.

There are some things she hasn't decided on yet, so it's too early to tell them now, so she'll tell the other party later.

the next day.

noon.

Cai Jing hosted a banquet for all the guests at Xichuan Restaurant.

No one took it seriously at first. What kind of decent dishes could a small restaurant in a remote city make?

As a result, Du Shaojie used his absolute strength to let them eat "delicious food", which surprised these people.

But when they learned that Du Shaojie's [Xichuan Restaurant] had already established a foothold in Beijing and Guangzhou, and planned to open a store in Shenzhen, these people showed a look of understanding.

Qin Lu smiled without saying anything. She knew very well Du Shaojie's true ability. He was just a nobody. He could eat the food he cooked only because of Director Cai's favor.

After the meal, Cai Jing, Qin Lu and others took a bus to the scenic spot.

Du Shaojie worked for several days and taught 10 new dishes to Luo Gang, Liu Ziwang and others.

He took some time to take stock of what he had achieved during this period, and to his surprise, he found that 45 dishes had received an overall evaluation of "delicious food."

These days, he has hosted two banquets and often has to give demonstrations during training and teaching.

If you accumulate it, the rewards will naturally be huge.

After finishing his work, Du Shaojie called Liu Ying.

Liu Ying helped him arrange a van, and a group of people took the van to the alpine ranch.

We have already called the ranch, and the reception is very considerate, but the accommodation conditions are a bit poor. But no one cares. If you care so much when you go out to play, you might as well stay at home.

In addition to the three siblings Du Shaojie, Xiaomei and Xiaoya, the others who came out to play this time included Qi Yan, Su Dapeng and the couple Huang Tingting, a total of six people.

A large yurt was vacated on the ranch, and everyone could only rest and sleep in the yurt.

After taking the things from the car, the van headed back home and would come back to pick them up the day after tomorrow morning, which meant that Du Shaojie and the others would have to stay at the ranch for two nights.

It was still early, so everyone took the cooking utensils and leftovers to the stream to wash them.

Du Shaojie had a complete set of outdoor cooking utensils, but some of them were not needed, so he only brought some of them.

There are two iron stoves and a barbecue stove outside the yurt. People have also prepared firewood and coal, as well as an iron kettle for boiling water in advance.

In addition, there are buckets and large iron pots, so there is basically no need to worry about food and drink.

But they have to do it themselves, as the herdsmen are all very busy and don't have the manpower to take care of them the whole time.

"We have Chef Du, right? Can we still eat dry naan?"

Qi Yan, like Xiao Mei and Xiao Ya, has strong confidence in Du Shaojie.

Afterwards, Qi Yan, Xiaomei, Xiaoya and Huang Tingting went to fetch water, wash the rice, and then clean the carrots and other ingredients.

Su Dapeng lit a fire and soon boiled a pot of water. Du Shaojie went to buy a sheep from a herdsman. The herdsman was very enthusiastic and helped him pick one. However, he was very busy at the moment and said he would not have time to help with the slaughter until the afternoon.

"No, I can do it myself."

Du Shaojie didn't care. He knew how to slaughter sheep and pigs. He had done it many times when he was on the farm.

"Are you okay? If not, wait for me to come over this afternoon. You can have something to eat at noon to fill your stomach first."

The herdsman expressed doubt, but Du Shaojie smiled without saying anything and led the sheep back to the yurt.

Then he asked Su Dapeng to help him, and they walked a long way before starting to slaughter the sheep.

Slaughtering, bleeding, skinning, cleaning the internal organs, deboning and cutting the meat, the whole process was so fast that Su Dapeng was stunned.

"Aren't you a chef? Why are you doing the work of a butcher?"

"Isn't that nonsense? What do you think I did on the farm? I was both a cook and a butcher. Hurry up and send the meat back so they can wash it and put it on the skewers. We'll have barbecue for lunch."

There is still a lot of work to do next. Sheep intestines, sheep tripes, sheep hearts, sheep livers, etc. are all good things, but they are troublesome to handle.

Du Shaojie asked Su Dapeng to take the cut mutton and mutton bones back, while he went to the stream to clean the internal organs.

The herders had told her before which areas could be used to get water and which areas could be used to wash debris, and he remembered them all.

When you are on someone else's territory, you have to abide by their rules. There is nothing to say about it.

"Shaojie, let me help you."

Qi Yan came over and prepared to clean these things with Du Shaojie.

Du Shaojie waved his hand and asked her to go back and get some alkaline noodles and salt, as well as some flour. Sheep tripes and sheep intestines are difficult to clean, and some tricks are needed.

This time he was well prepared. He not only brought various seasonings and onions, ginger, garlic, yellow radish, carrots, tomatoes and green peppers, but also a small amount of rice, flour and oil.

All preparations are made according to picnic standards, so you don't have to worry about going hungry even in the wilderness.

After working for more than an hour, Du Shaojie and Qi Yan finally returned to the yurt with two basins of offal.

Huang Tingting, Xiaomei and Xiaoya were stringing lamb skewers. Du Shaojie asked them to cut some lamb liver and lamb intestines so that they would be delicious when grilled later.

Then he started to cut the yellow carrot and other ingredients, and after they were ready, he started to heat the pan. Later, he poured clear oil into the pan and started to stir-fry the mutton with bones, making sure to dry the mutton.

Next, pour in the chopped yellow radish strips, stir-fry for a while, add water to the pot, and add the rice that has been soaked in advance.

For lunch, we had pilaf and barbecue, and a cold dish made with tomatoes, green peppers and shrimps.

[Pilaf] After boiling over high heat, you need to turn to low heat and simmer slowly. Don't be in a hurry.

After the charcoal fire in the barbecue stove was completely red, Du Shaojie began to roast mutton, lamb intestines, lamb heart and lamb liver.

By this time, everyone was hungry. When the aroma of the barbecue wafted over, everyone couldn't help swallowing their saliva. This kind of waiting was the most tormenting, but fortunately the first batch of barbecue would be ready to eat soon.

"Are you hungry? Come, let's eat something first."

Du Shaojie invited everyone to eat barbecue skewers, and Su Dapeng immediately opened a few bottles of beer. They drank beer and ate barbecue skewers, and they immediately felt that this was the most delicious food in the world.

It’s nothing, I’m just very hungry.

Du Shaojie baked another batch before sitting down to eat with everyone.

After eating a few skewers of kebabs, he went to watch the fire. When cooking rice in an iron pot, you have to turn the pot from time to time, on the one hand to ensure even heating, and on the other hand to prevent the bottom of the pot from getting burnt.

Finally, the delicious rice is cooked.

Du Shaojie closed the damper, put the iron pot on the stove, and opened the lid. Suddenly, a rich aroma spread out, which was so tempting.

Their lunch consisted of pilaf and barbecue, with beer and cold dishes, which was a very sumptuous meal no matter how you looked at it.

We can make [Boiled Lamb] in the evening. Meat will definitely be the main meal for the next two days. I guess everyone will gain two pounds when we go back.

in the afternoon.

Some herdsmen brought over a few horses. These horses were relatively gentle in nature and were just right for them to ride.

Of course, to be on the safe side, there was also a herdsman following them, mainly in case something unexpected happened.

After a whole afternoon of fun, the guys all walked with their legs apart after getting off their horses. Riding a horse is a technical job, and this is the result if you are not skilled.

But no one cares. How many opportunities do you get to ride a horse in a year? It doesn't matter if your legs or butt hurts, as long as you're happy.

the next day.

It rained heavily in the mountains, so everyone had to hide in the yurt and play poker.

The rain stopped and the sky cleared up in the afternoon.

"Who is Master Du?"

Everyone came out of the yurt and happened to see a truck approaching.

After a while, the truck stopped in front of the yurt and two men got out of the truck.

"I am Du Shaojie, may I ask who you are?"

Du Shaojie didn't know the other person, but the other person was obviously looking for him.

"We are the staff of the Glacier Station. Sorry, we only learned about your arrival today, so we are late. The leader has arranged accommodation for you in the station. How about we go over now?"

One of them explained that he only knew that it was arranged by the station leader, but he was not sure who contacted the station leader about this matter.

Du Shaojie asked for the opinions of several people and decided to go with them.

There is no electricity in the yurt, so everyone is bored after dark. Moreover, everyone is crowded together and cannot get a good rest at night.
