After Lu Yongliang processed a fish, he placed mushrooms, cooked ham, and winter bamboo shoots on the fish, poured Shaoxing wine and shredded green onions and ginger on it, and put it directly into the steamer.

Wang Laoer, who was originally intimidated, suddenly relaxed his vigilance.

He thought that this steamed sea bass was the signature dish of the restaurant, and he had seen it hundreds of times if not thousands of times.

If it was cooked according to the old man's method, there would be nothing to say about this fish, it was just an ordinary steamed fish.

In addition, in order to ensure that the taste of each fish is consistent, the restaurant's back kitchen has long used a temperature-controlled steamer. As for the temperature and how to convert it in the middle, these are all secrets of their own chefs.

If the old man does this, he will probably lose to his own chef.

'One thousand yuan is not much, but it's great to fail in the challenge! ’

Wang Laoer thought silently, and he put the walnuts in his hand back on the plate. The worry on his face eased a little.

At this moment, Lu Yongliang covered the pot and quickly ran to the fish tank to fish out another fish.

Wang Laoer suddenly put away his smile, "Didn't you say you only cook one fish? The fish in my restaurant is not enough to sell every day. What do you mean?"

Lu Yongliang came back with the fish and grinned, "Delicious fish should be cooked this way. Ten times of one is one thousand, and ten times of two is two thousand. If I lose, I will pay according to the price."

These words made Wang Laoer speechless.

Lao Lu quickly performed the killing of fish again, and then took a knife.

Thinking silently in his heart, the first time he saw Su Chen cook fish, he steamed two fish at once.

The soup of one fish was used to stir-fry the sauce, and the other fish was lifted up in the plate.

Afterwards, Shang Mingke also said after tasting the fish that although the two methods were similar in taste and texture, the fish made by Boss Su tasted more indescribable. It was this difficult feeling that made Lu Yongliang's steamed fish at a disadvantage.

Lu Yongliang was almost certain that the source of that flavor was the reason why Su Chen steamed two fish.

So taking advantage of the opportunity today, Lao Lu simply imitated Su Chen and tried it once. Anyway, it would not be worse than steaming it directly!

The first fish was directly put into the steamer with seasonings.

For the second fish, Lu Yongliang began to change the knife.

It was still his best knife method of opening the screen fish. Cut the fish piece by piece, leaving a little connection between each piece and the belly of the fish, and then connect the head and tail, and the whole fish spread out like a peacock opening its screen.

In the past, this fish was lying on the plate with its screen opened like this.

But not today.

Lu Yongliang used two toothpicks to string the fish head and tail together, and then stood the whole fish up!

This fish is like an archway with a screen opened, and it is beautiful just by looking at it.

Wang Laoer's brows are getting tighter.

He doesn't understand. It's just a fish. Is it useful to do it so fancy? Is the fish standing up better than the one lying down?

Don't say Wang Laoer doesn't know.

Lu Yongliang didn't know it in his heart. He just knew that when he first met Boss Su a few months ago, Boss Su did this!

Since Xiao Su did this, there must be a reason. Lu Yongliang is going to try it today!

According to his personal habit, put ham slices, mushrooms, and winter bamboo shoots in the middle of the fish slices with the screen opened.

The shredded green onion and ginger are scattered on the fish. Take a high lid and borrow a stove. This standing "screen fish" is put into the steamer.

Old Lu clapped his hands. This dish is not finished yet.

Steaming fish is a test of the heat. Su Chen has reached the level of feeling the size of the steam in the steamer through the steamer. Lu Yongliang believes that he does not have this ability. He stared at the steamer carefully for a long time until the heat stabilized before he took out a wok.

Some white lard was scooped into the pot. It was not time to turn on the fire yet. Lu Yongliang stretched his body and turned his head to look at Wang Laoer.

"Boss, this fish will be ready soon. Let's talk about the conditions now?"

Laughed.

Wang Laoer really laughed, "You negotiate with me?"

Lu Yongliang nodded, "I have made it clear what the conditions are if I lose. What if I win."

Wang Laoer waved his hand holding the walnut, "Forget it, you can't win."

Lu Yongliang smiled and said, "I still say that if I win, you give us three a job. My salary requirement is not high, 3,000 a day, and the same goes for the two of them."

Wang Laoer: ? ? ?

He was a little bit unconvinced about what he had just heard, and tilted his head to look at his lobby manager, "Did I hear it right? He said, daily salary? Three thousand? Not monthly salary?"

The lobby manager was also confused.

If coming to eat fish to find fault was enough to confuse her, then this daily salary of three thousand would just make her confused!

What does a daily salary of three thousand mean?

A monthly salary of ninety thousand.

After being confused for a long time, the manager suddenly laughed, "Boss, you heard it right, the master said a daily salary of three thousand, and it was all three of them, all of them got this salary."

After that, the manager smiled and looked at Lu Yongliang, "Old sir, there is no such salary standard in our Qinzhou. Unless you are a state banquet chef, we will never offer this salary."

Oh, so that's it.

Lu Yongliang nodded. This was all within his expectations. After all, a monthly salary of 90,000 is really outrageous, but the three of them only work for three days, which means they earn 30,000 yuan.

But Lu Yongliang didn't plan to earn this 30,000 yuan for nothing. He was going to leave some technology for this restaurant.

The kind of technology that can change the turnover of a restaurant is not something that can be obtained with 30,000 or 50,000 yuan.

"Don't rush to refuse, isn't the fish not cooked yet?"

Lu Yongliang looked at the clock hanging on the wall, waited for another minute, and then quickly took out the first fish that had been steamed in the pot.

Wang Laoer tiptoed and stretched his neck, sniffed hard, and didn't find anything special about the taste of this dish.

It's not even an exaggeration to say that it's not as good as this chef!

Just watch Lu Yongliang put the steamed fish aside, and turn on the fire in another pot. The lard in the pot began to melt at a very fast speed. When the oil temperature was 50% hot, he poured all the fish soup from the fish dish into the pork!

The fire was turned on, and the soup in the pot began to boil in an instant.

Lu Yongliang's movements were neat and tidy. He scooped a spoonful of chicken oil into the soup, and sprinkled a little MSG and a small amount of pepper.

This pot was boiling and ignored. He walked to the steamer of the second open-screen fish and opened the lid!

The standing open-screen fish, the meat pieces are obviously mature. The meat slices that were originally a little soft are now unusually plump. Because no seasonings have been added, just some shredded green onions and ginger are sprinkled on it. The color of the meat slices looks like white jade, and it feels unusually fresh just by looking at it.

Lu Yongliang carefully took the fish out of the steamer, scooped the boiling sauce in the wok with a spoon, and slowly poured it on the fish.

The boiling sauce poured on it seemed to cook the fresh fish fillet for the second time, and the tender fish meat just now looked slightly tightened on the surface.

The lard melted in the soup also hung lightly on the fish meat because of this pouring, making the fish fillet look a little shiny.

Lu Yongliang picked up all the shredded green onions and ginger on it with chopsticks and threw them away, "It's ready to be served."

Wang Laoer frowned, put his arm around his chest and pinched his chin, staring at the fish standing on the plate, the meat slices like a flower.

"Mr. Zhang, how are you doing?"

On the other side, Chef Zhang flipped the spoon in his hand and poured a spoonful of thickened soup on the fish body, "Okay, serve!"

The lobby manager trotted over, "Let me help serve one."

The waiter brought Lu Yongliang's open-screen fish. When the two of them walked to the kitchen door, they stopped. The manager looked around the hall and finally his eyes fell on a round table.

There were 6 people sitting at the table, a young couple, an older couple, and two children, a boy and a girl.

It was obvious that this was a family of six who came out to eat at a restaurant. This kind of family combination is not uncommon in restaurants like Yujingyuan.

Many nearby families would choose to eat here when they wanted to splurge on a meal at noon, just for this steamed sea bass.

Wang Laoer nodded, "Okay, send it to that table. Explain the situation clearly, don't let the customers think we are cheating them."

It should be said that although Wang Laoer looks a bit like a social person, he is still very considerate of customers when doing business.

Lu Yongliang and his group also stood at the door and looked far away. Anyway, this door is a side door, which does not affect the back kitchen to serve dishes.

Chef Zhang looked at the order nailed on the wall and felt that there were not too many people ordering fish at noon today. He simply steamed ten fish at once and followed to the side door.

"What do you think, Lao Zhang? This old master said he wants to challenge you. Do you have confidence?"

Chef Zhang looked at Lu Yongliang who was squeezed at the door. After a long time of careful observation, he was sure that he had never seen this person before, and then said, "When it comes to cooking fish, I'm afraid the old master will lose."

Lu Yongliang smiled and glanced at him, "Don't worry. Just wait and see how the customers react."

In the hall, the manager and the waiter came to the table for six together.

"Hello~" the manager interrupted the family's chat in a very sweet voice, "Today our store is holding an event, this fish is what you ordered, this fish is given to everyone in our store, you can enjoy it for free, but after eating it, you have to make an evaluation of our two fish today, do you think it is convenient to participate in the event?"

The middle-aged man's eyes lit up.

Thinking, there is such a good thing?

On the contrary, the old man nodded in succession, "I said that Yujingyuan's business will get better and better in the future. It's good to try new dishes in time and listen to customer feedback. Of course we have to participate, haha, a free fish~"

The manager put down the fish plate in his hand, and the four adults looked at the two fish.

"This fish is well cooked, it looks pretty good, and there are more varieties. At least it looks better than this one I have been eating before." The young wife started to comment before she started eating.

Even the manager must admit this.

The restaurant's previous steamed fish was cut from the belly and placed on the plate lying down, with slices of ham and mushrooms placed around the fish body. It looked like these were used for decoration.

As for Lu Yongliang's fish, it is connected head to tail and stands on the plate, which looks more three-dimensional. Slices of ham and mushrooms are sandwiched between the fish slices.

The three colors of white, black and red echo each other and are indeed superior in color.

The manager kept her professional smile.

Is there any use in having nice colors?

Just because it looks good doesn’t necessarily mean it tastes good. Chef Zhang’s steamed fish has stood the test of the market and has been the best-selling dish in the store for three consecutive months. Otherwise, it would not have become the number one dish in Yujingyuan today!

Because of the previous remarks, even if the manager is standing here, the whole family does not feel disgusted.

The old man took his chopsticks and took the first bite of the fish.

He put together the ham slices and mushroom slices, and a piece of fish. He shouted in surprise, "If you do this, this fish will not only look good, but it will also be convenient to eat. You guys try it." ”

Several people started to try it one after another.

Sure enough, the chopsticks could easily pick up three ingredients at once with just a little force. And after all four people had picked up the fish, they found that there were very few shredded meats on the bones under the fish.

This is awesome.

The old man put the three ingredients into his mouth at once.

"Well."

He didn't even have time to chew, but he felt as if the fish meat was melting in his mouth. It rolled around in circles in his mouth, and then it was caught by his teeth, and he bit it down gently.

fresh.

The old man chewed slowly and tasted it carefully.

This was a taste his taste buds had never experienced before.

Tender, this tender and smooth texture is like a freshly slaughtered fish. It is cooked immediately after being cleaned, and the fish meat comes into your mouth as soon as it is mature.

There is no redundant process in between.

And this fish meat is just mature. If it takes one second longer, it will be a bit old, and if it takes one second less, it will be a bit raw.

This feeling.

The salty taste in the mouth was even more amazing. This kind of saltiness was not the saltiness that I usually felt. It was an indescribable salty taste that had surpassed the old man's taste buds.

tasty!

The old man finished the meal in one bite and immediately took another chopstick to the fish on the plate.

"This fish can be made, beauty. Is this the fish made by your new chef? Thumbs up." The middle-aged man kept eating the fish while eating the fish.

"It's really delicious!" The woman also kept eating. "I think this fish has a bit of ham and mushroom flavor. It combines them all. It's much more delicious than the previous method."

While he was talking, two more bites of meat came into his mouth.

Four adults share a fish.

There is a saying that no one can eat more than four or five pieces of fish, and the fish is so delicious, as if everything has been considered for the customers, and they only need to use chopsticks to pick it up.

Unlike the other fish, you have to use chopsticks to tear it apart.

In less than five minutes, a fish was clean, leaving only the bones and head.

At this time, a weak voice whispered: "Mom, I want to eat fish."

Another little girl also raised her head innocently, with her eyes wide open, "Daddy, eat fish."

The man looked at the fish bones awkwardly, "Well, it's okay, there's another fish."

The old man's eyes widened, "You are just eating for yourself, and my grandchildren are starving! Get out of here, and quickly order me another flowering fish, who eats that kind of crawling fish?"

The man felt a little aggrieved and a little angry.

Am I not your son?

It's enough to have a separate marriage. Didn't you just eat it for yourself? Didn't you also forget about your son?

Isn't it normal for me to forget my son and daughter?

But he didn't dare to say it.

The seven wolves in childhood are still vivid in my mind.

The man had no choice but to turn his head and look at the lobby manager with a smile, "Well, just the fish we ate just now, here's another one."

The lobby manager was stunned for a long time, and after saying "Oh" several times, he just said, "Why don't you guys continue to taste this fish? After all, this is our hotel's event today, and you guys have also been selected by us to become lucky customers. ”

Oh yes.

Several customers then remembered that the fish was indeed given for free, but it could not be eaten for free.

In addition to eating, they also have to review it with others.

The old man took the lead and took a chopstick to the crawling bass, put it in his mouth and sipped hard.

"Hey! I'm confused. I thought this fish was quite delicious before. But today, have you changed the cook?"

The man also took a bite and ate, "Something's wrong. It tastes slimy. It doesn't taste as refreshing and tender as the fish just now. What's going on? I remember it wasn't like this before."

Similarly, the woman also took a bite, and her reaction was even more intense.

"Bah, bah, bah, why does this fish still smell like fish? Are you trying to tease us on purpose?"

The woman simply spit out the fish in her mouth into the bowl. After wiping her mouth with a paper towel for a long time, she said, "And is this fish salty or sweet? Are you just trying to introduce a new fish? The fish before was probably poorly cooked on purpose.”

The lobby manager didn't expect the customer to react like this.

She was shocked.

The problem is that the fish you ate before was the fish you ate now. Why did it taste so good when you ate it before, but not now?

She looked at the fish with only bones left.

Could it be related to this?

Indeed, sometimes when you have eaten the same thing, you will find that other things are extremely unpalatable.

This is what the old saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality, but the question is, is this fish really so delicious?

The lobby manager smiled lightly, "Please wait a moment, I will go to report the situation to the boss first. Our other dishes will be out soon, you eat first."

After that, she trotted back to the side door of the kitchen in the expectant eyes of several customers.

"How is it?" Wang Laoer asked with concern.

The lobby manager looked at Lu Yongliang and opened his mouth several times, but didn't speak.

There are so many people now. If she directly said that the customers didn't want to eat Chef Zhang's fish at all, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of Chef Zhang and Boss Wang?

And it also gave the old man room to negotiate.

As a qualified manager, you have to make all-round considerations for your boss!

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Wang Laoer said angrily, "If you have something to say, just say it quickly! What happened? What did the customers who tasted the food say? I saw that you guys talked a lot over there just now, who won?"

The manager glanced at Lu Yongliang with slippery eyes, but still didn't dare to speak. She thought about it and just whispered, "The customer asked us to hurry up and serve the dishes."

The two Wangs were dumbfounded.

What happened to this girl today? I promoted her to the lobby manager because I thought she was smart and spoke well. Why did she lose her mind today when she encountered this matter?

Is it so difficult for you to speak?

The impatient Wang Laoer pushed the lobby manager away, "Get out of the way, I'll go and communicate with the customer in person!"

The lobby manager stretched out his hand to pull the boss, but saw Wang Laoer rubbing walnuts and swaggering towards the round table.

Lu Yongliang, confidently leaned against the door frame.

"Old Liu, there should be no problem here. You have to think of a solution for yourself."

Liu Guochu glanced at Chef Zhang, "It's okay, they will know later!"

Yujingyuan absorbs famous dishes from all over the country. The top dish is fish, and other stir-fries are slightly weaker.

And Hunan cuisine is least afraid of stir-fries!

Several people stood at the door, looking at Wang Laoer from a distance, waiting for a final answer.

Qinzhou, Happy Egg Fried Rice, outside the door.

"Boss, is it a bit unfair for us to do this?"

He Shuting finally finished the last stroke on the carton.

On the torn beer box, there are a few big words at this moment.

[Super Happy Egg Fried Rice: 188 yuan/portion]

And behind them is the signboard of this restaurant: Happy Egg Fried Rice.

Su Chen shook his head, "You don't understand this."

He said confidently, "Think about it now, if you open a restaurant, you can make 500 yuan a day according to normal turnover. But suddenly one day, someone tells you to buy goods from your restaurant, you only need to do half of the previous workload, but you can make 5,000 yuan a day! Are you willing?"

He Shuting's finger rested on her chin, "It seems that I am willing."

Su Chen nodded, "That's right."

He looked at the staff who were following him, "Director Sun, I have a request now, I personally don't think it's too much, you see."

Sun Xiaoting waved his hand, "What request or no request, just say it."

Su Chen pointed to the things on the ground.

"The tools I have selected here are woks, spatulas, gas stoves, etc., but I have a problem, that is, I like to use my own tools when cooking. I sent a courier before I came here, and it is estimated that it has arrived now. I want to replace this wok and spatula with my own tools. Do you think it is okay?"

Yes, yes, no, no, Su Chen just asked tentatively.

Sun Xiaoting thought about it, "It doesn't seem to be a problem. Anyway, they are all pots and spatulas, it doesn't matter whose they are, then we will help you pick up the courier?"

Su Chen shook his head, "No, I can go by myself. Oh, yes. There is no need to shoot this part, we will start working after we get it back."

Sun Xiaoting didn't think much about it, but just told Su Chen to be careful on the road.

Su Chen turned and walked into Happy Egg Fried Rice, "Boss, can I buy from you on credit?"

The man looked at Su Chen warily, "What do you mean?"

Su Chen laughed, "Anyway, we are all here, I will buy from you a few bottles of Coke, and I will give it to you when I make money later."

The restaurant owner looked at He Shuting and Ling Shuyu outside the door with suspicion, thinking that young people dressed like this should not be liars, even if they are liars, is it interesting to cheat me of a few bottles of Coke?

But he still said very cautiously, "Then I can only give you nine servings of rice later, and I will give you the tenth serving after you pay me back."

Su Chen laughed a little, this boss is really vigilant, but he is also a small business, it is boring to argue about this, "Okay, three bottles."

He took out three bottles of iced Coke from the refrigerator and gave them to Ling Shuyu and He Shuting, "Director Sun, you pay for it if you want to drink! I am not well-off today, so I won't treat everyone."

Sun Xiaoting waved his hand speechlessly, "Okay, you do your thing."

But I think this Boss Su is a bit interesting.

Sun Xiaoting just learned about the situation through the work group, and other groups have basically started to take action.

Cui Yufen has done a good job and has already started to have customers.

Lu Yongliang is a bit unconventional, and he actually challenged the big hotel!

It was Jiang Wusheng, who didn't know what he was thinking, but he actually brought two little girls to the park to mess things up. This is really puzzling.

Does this great god have any backhand cards?

And Boss Su's side is also quite interesting.

He bought cooked rice and eggs directly from the restaurant that sells fried rice, and the purchase price is very high.

Then he set up a stall at the door of the restaurant.

This is not the point, the point is that Boss Su actually wants to sell fried rice at a sky-high price at the door of the restaurant.

188 yuan fried rice, anyway, Sun Xiaoting thought he would not buy it, no matter how delicious it is, isn't it still a fried rice?

Could it be so delicious?

'I guess only fools would eat such expensive fried rice? ’

Sun Xiaoting said silently in his heart.

Looking at Su Chen's back as he raised his head to drink Coke, Sun Xiaoting felt for the first time that the plot design of this game was a bit problematic.

Logically, we should let Boss Su win, which is more in line with the audience's expectations.

Now Boss Su's willful behavior, I'm afraid the program team will have to pay for them to stay in Qinzhou later.

Oh. I don't know what Boss Su thinks.

I guess he thought this was in his company.

Sun Xiaoting didn't think much about it and continued to shoot He Shuting and the others.

"Ton ton ton ton ton"

Su Chen drank the Coke while walking and looking up.

"It's just not as good as the Coke in the vending machine."

But it was very hot at noon, and it was still very happy to drink such a bottle of iced Coke.

Walking out of this street, Su Chen turned into an empty corner.

His expression was slightly startled, and a wok and a spatula appeared out of thin air in his hands.

"Today, it depends on you!"

The chef suit is back.

Looking at the exaggerated iron pot and spatula, Su Chen was looking forward to it.

When SSS egg fried rice appeared on the streets of Qinzhou City.

What would it look like?
