No regrets ninety-two

Chapter 4 Chef's Craft

The reality is even crueler than Wu Changhe imagined.

After arriving at the county seat, he took the car to the entrance of the largest vegetable market in the county, paid fifty cents for the management fee, occupied a palm-sized space at the entrance of the vegetable market, and temporarily sold radishes.

But a few hours later, the radish in the tricycle was only sold for about ten catties, and he only put more than three dry tickets in his pocket.

Wu Changhe sighed.

Judging by the situation, today's carload of radishes probably has to be taken home again.

Wu Changhe felt worried.

It's a trivial matter that the radish cannot be sold, but the problem is where will the tuition fees of the siblings come from after the next year?I don't even know who to ask for a loan.

I'm so sad!
Looking at Wu Changhe who was sighing, Wu Xiaozheng couldn't stay still anymore.

It was almost noon, and his stomach was already growling. If he didn't do anything, he would probably be hungry at noon.

"Grandpa, I'm going shopping for a while."

"You must be hungry. Use this money to buy two buns."

Wu Changhe gritted his teeth and took out fifty cents from his pocket and handed it to Wu Xiaozheng.

No matter how hard it is, you can't suffer children!The idea of ​​the old man is so simple.

Looking at the crumpled fifty cents, Wu Xiaozheng almost burst into tears again.

He knew what Grandpa was thinking, that is, he would rather be hungry than treat him badly.

"No, I'll be back after I go shopping."

Wu Xiaozheng quickly left the tricycle and walked into the market.

He had to find a way to help grandpa sell this cart of radishes.As a reborn person, if he can't even handle this trivial matter, then the decades of his previous life will be in vain.

Facts have proved that in the matter of selling radishes, the reborn him doesn't have much advantage. After walking around, Wu Xiaozheng was a little discouraged.

The reason is simple. There are radishes everywhere in the vegetable stalls in the market, and the price is about the same: twenty-five cents a catty.

But even with such a bad street price, basically no one cares about it. There are too many radishes on the market.

Have to think differently!

Wu Xiaozheng started to walk outside the market.

There is a row of shops facing the street outside the vegetable market. Some of these shops sell grain and oil, some sell condiments, some sell dry goods, and some open small restaurants.

Liu Shuigen, who is nearly 40 years old, is the owner of one of the small restaurants.

It is said to be the boss, but it is actually a small business. There is a small kitchen separated by a small shop of about [-] square meters, and seven or eight tables are set up. One of the husband and wife is a cook and the other is a waiter.

Because it is next to the vegetable market, the flow of people is not bad, and the husband and wife clean up relatively cleanly, the prices of the dishes are also affordable, and the business of the small shop is OK.

It was almost lunch time again, and more and more people came into the restaurant to eat. Liu Shuigen began to get busy in the small kitchen separated by the door.

"Boss, business is good!"

Liu Shuigen looked up and saw a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy in a tracksuit standing at the door of the kitchen, greeting him.

"Oh, it's okay. Why, kid, do you want to eat? Sit inside."

Because the child was about the same age as his son, Liu Shuigen felt a little kind, so he said a few more words.

"Boss, I don't eat, I want to ask you, do you still accept radishes here?"

Liu Shuigen raised his head in surprise.

Looking at the sportswear on the child, he knew that the child was a student from the city.Now that the winter vacation is just over, my son doesn't know where to go wild, and this kid actually helps the family out to sell radishes?
This kid is so sensible!
Liu Shuigen really wanted to help him, but unfortunately he couldn't help him.But he still replied in a good voice: "Child, I still have radishes here. There are too many radishes now, and no one orders radishes at all. Go to another house and ask."

What surprised Liu Shuigen was that the child was still unwilling to leave, and spoke again: "No way, radishes are so delicious, it's impossible for no one to order them. I'm afraid it's because you didn't cook them well!"

Liu Shuigen couldn't laugh or cry.

Although he didn't really learn any cooking skills, but after opening the shop for so many years, the taste of a few home-cooked dishes is still good. He didn't expect to be questioned by a child today.

Of course Liu Shuigen wouldn't care about a child, he asked jokingly: "Then tell me, how do you make the radish taste good?"

"Well, I'll teach you how to make a dish. If it tastes good, you'll be promoting this dish in the past two days, and then you bought my radish."

Teach me how to cook?This kid's tone is too big!

interesting.

Because there are not many customers in the store for the time being, Liu Shuigen responded smoothly: "Okay, then you can try it."

Liu Shuigen wanted to see what kind of dishes this kid could teach him.

The child entered the kitchen in a flash, walked to the cutting board, picked up the kitchen knife and tried it.

At this time, Liu Shuigen's wife also came over to watch the excitement.She said with a smile: "Child, can you do it, don't cut your hands."

Liu Shuigen also expressed doubts, thinking, if such an older child can really go to a restaurant to teach him how to cook, it would be strange!

But he didn't bother to stop him, instead he took it as a scene of excitement.

"Give me a carrot first." The child said seriously.

Liu Shuigen picked up a washed radish and handed it over.

The child started to get busy.

What surprised Liu Shuigen was that the kid was very good at knife skills.He first cut the radish into square blocks, then cut the radish into thin slices, and then cut the thin slices into shreds...

After some crackling, a radish becomes shredded radish with uniform length and thickness.

This knife is amazing!Liu Shuigen feels ashamed.

Is this kid really good at cooking?
"Boss, some fresh lean meat."

The child interrupted the astonishment of Liu Shuigen and his wife again, and Liu Shuigen quickly picked up a piece of lean meat and handed it over.

Under the watchful eyes of the couple, the child cut the lean meat into even shreds.

Then the child continued to give orders to Liu Shuigen.

"Boss, some green onions."

"Boss, some garlic sprouts."

"Boss, do you have chopped peppers?"

……

In just a short while, the child finished the work of preparing the dishes. The white shredded radish, bright red shredded pork, emerald green onion, green and white garlic, and fiery red chopped peppers were neatly arranged.

This kid is not only good at knife skills, but also very fast.

"Get out of the way, it's time for me to demonstrate cooking."

The kid's tone was a bit twitchy, but Liu Shuigen willingly moved away from the seat by the stove.

He has been amazed by the child's craftsmanship, and no longer doubts whether he can cook.What he is now curious about is how delicious this kid can make shredded radish.

"Look, I'm a chef's skill!"
