The Days of Opening a Restaurant on an Abnormal Earth

"Ah, my eyes!" Huo Ying covered his eyes and squatted down in pain. Now he finally understood why his nephew Huo Zheng wanted to cover his eyes just now.

I was also careless for a while, forgetting that Huo Zheng has such an ability, as long as he cooks seriously, he will make the dishes very fancy every time he finishes cooking.

No, it's not bells and whistles to describe it. It's like adding special effects to all the dishes, dazzling people and even blinding people's 24k titanium alloy dog ​​eyes.

"Uncle, are you okay? I'll help you to wash your eyes with water by the pool, it will make you feel much better."

Huo Zheng helped Huo Ying to the pool and washed his eyes with cold water. At this time, Huo Ying felt that his eyes were much more comfortable, without the sore and swollen feeling just now.

However, he still couldn't fully open his eyes, and said to Huo Zheng with slightly squinted eyes: "What are you doing?"

"I'm just trying to make fried rice with eggs. After all, I don't want to eat takeaway today, and there is no takeaway for the Chinese New Year."

"Well, you are not egg fried rice, you are a flash bomb, my eyes are almost blinded by the flash."

Regarding Huo Ying's complaints, Huo Zheng could only shrug his shoulders and said helplessly: "It can't be completely blamed on me, who told me that I have such abilities."

"The world I traveled to was the kind of world where chefs are respected. Everyone is fighting for cooking skills. The bright culinary world and the dark culinary world have been fighting each other for thousands of years, and have developed various dishes for fighting."

"In order to make a living in that world, I also worked hard to learn these skills. Who would have thought that I would come back one day." Huo Zheng was also very helpless.

Huo Ying dipped his hands in cold water, and then applied it to his eyes. He whispered: "Then you can't stop doing these fancy things? Cook well, don't make it look like a flash every time." Flicks or other nonsense come out."

"I want to, too, but I can't do it. Now that I'm back, my abilities are not as easy to control as when I was in another world. As long as I cook carefully every time, I will passively trigger these skills. Energy just pours into these dishes without you knowing it, and that always happens when it’s done.”

"Unless I intentionally make the dish unpalatable, then there won't be these special effects. But how can I eat egg fried rice without oil or salt?"

Huo Ying closed his eyes and rested for a while. After feeling that his eyes were not so painful, he opened them completely and looked at his nephew.

Huo is the son of his elder brother, but his elder brother died early. This kid has been in charge of himself since high school.

He couldn't write two Huo characters in one stroke. In the final analysis, he was a family whose blood was thicker than water, so I raised him as half my son.

Although Huo Zheng didn't know much about reading, he was still diligent. After graduating from high school, he went to learn art from a teacher and how to cook Sichuan cuisine without being admitted to university.

At that time, I thought that this kid would be good at his craft in the future, and he would be able to become a teacher. I would invest some money and let him open a food stall or something. After slowly developing, maybe he would be able to make a difference like his comrade-in-arms Jiang Aijun. .

But what I didn't expect was that this kid had just studied for two years, and hadn't completed his three-year apprenticeship, so he ended up time-traveling.

At that time, it was a good meal for me. Fortunately, after three years, this kid traveled back again. But according to what he said, he traveled for three years, but in fact he spent eight years in another world.

It is a world where culinary skills are respected. He learned all kinds of special cooking skills there.

Originally, Huo Ying thought that this was a good thing. Anyway, this kid is also a cook, although he disappeared after three years. But it's okay to treat him as an apprentice outside for three years and come back after learning a high level of cooking skills. After all, it will take two or three years to learn how to cook in New Oriental and Lanxiang.

If his craftsmanship is really good, he can rent a shop on the street for him with 100,000 yuan, and open a food stall and fly restaurant.

But after testing his cooking skills, he found a serious problem. That is, all the dishes he cooks seem to have added special effects.

Just like just now, it is obviously a plate of unpretentious egg fried rice, but when the lid is lifted, it will overflow with golden light. It's even more exaggerated than the performance techniques in those movies. It's almost catching up with the cartoon called China Little Master that my child watched when he was a child.

Anyway, Huo Zheng's dishes were either golden, fluorescent, or green. If there is no light, then it is possible that the moment the lid is lifted again, steam will overflow, and the sea of ​​clouds will evaporate, as if the lid of the hot spring mouth is opened.

Or for example, the last time I used the tree flower, a specialty of Yunnan, to make a tree flower scrambled egg. This time, there was no luminescence, or the phenomenon of emitting various gases. But the moment the lid was lifted, everyone actually heard the chirping of cicadas and birds in the forest.

And this is just the feeling of seeing or hearing. If you really eat these dishes, it will bring you an even more unexpected feeling.

For example, he cooks a braised Yellow River carp. As long as others take a bite, they will feel that the Yangtze River is rolling... It is the rolling water of the Yellow River.

It seems that the mother river that has nourished the Chinese nation for 5,000 years is flowing in my mouth.

Eating a fried bean sprouts with shredded pork can also give you the feeling of a phoenix ascending to heaven. I even heard fairy music fluttering.

Also because of his ability. So after eating Huo Zheng's meal, some people felt that he must have put medicine in the meal, otherwise the effect would not be achieved, so some people quietly reported him.

Because at that time, many returnees from other worlds also had some special cooking methods. Their method is to add raw materials that are banned by various countries. Those raw materials have illusory and addictive ingredients, and after eating, they will have the same hallucinations as Huo Zheng's dishes.

The dishes made by these people have caused many problems. Because those things are scarier than drug addiction.

So after being reported, Huo Zheng was also invited by the relevant authorities to assist in the investigation.

Later, after repeated verification, it was found that Huo Zheng did not use any addictive raw materials.

Those hallucinations were more like some kind of illusion presented by Huo Zheng's own ability, it would be more appropriate to understand it as a magic show.

But after such a check. The food sanitation unit still refused to approve Huo Zheng's chef qualifications, nor did he allow him to engage in related food processing industries.

Huo Zheng was very helpless about this. And Huo Ying also asked Huo Zheng why the food department didn't issue him a certificate?

"Didn't they check your ability?"

"Yeah, they did check and couldn't prove that my cooking was harmful. That's why I wasn't sued."

"Then why can't you issue a certificate? Your cooking is actually quite a gimmick."

"Yeah, that's what I said, but they said that while they can't prove that my cooking is harmful, they can't prove that my cooking is not harmful. It's like Schrödinger's cat, it can never be done without someone opening the box prove."

What Huo Zheng said made Huo Ying silent at the time, because the statement given by the food department was also true.

Because most people in the world are condemning the problem of genetically modified food. There are even many people in China who criticize Yuan Longping's hybrid rice.

Their theory is that although it cannot prove that genetically modified and hybrid rice is harmful to humans. But there is no way to prove that these foods are harmless to the human body! They are more inclined to have problems with these things, but they have not been discovered.

This is a common feature of human beings. If all those who oppose genetically modified rice, hybrid rice, hybrid wheat, and other crops that are not natural but produced through human interference are dragged out and shot, China may reduce its population by 1 billion. .

So Huo Zheng couldn't be a chef anymore, but he didn't know much about other skills. The long appearance is not very good, the height is only 1 meter 65. I wanted to find a job in the service industry, but no one accepted it.

So I can only be a courier when I come back. Walking around the streets to deliver couriers to people.

However, although express delivery can earn some money, it is too hard, and express delivery is not considered a skill. In the eyes of people of the older generation like Huo Ying. If you can't work in a public unit, whether you are a civil servant, a career editor, or a large state-owned factory. If you can't get in with these, then mastering a technology is a must. Only in this way can there be security in the society.

Huo Zheng is his own nephew, who has raised him for so many years and is also his half son. Even with a shy old face today, I asked Jiang Aijun to do me a favor.

"Pack up your things, dress yourself up and go to your Uncle Jiang's house with me."

"Isn't it too early to celebrate the New Year today? The New Year hasn't arrived yet."

"It's not New Year's greetings. I heard that the management of returnees in Huaihai should be more open. You are in your 20s and almost 30s. You don't have a serious job. You can't use a craft. This is not good. This year you Jianghua My sister is back, we are going to ask if you can run a restaurant in Huaihai in a situation like yours."
