Chapter 27 Stay in a five-star hotel and work in a steamed bun restaurant

"Yes, I am the boss here."

Jiang Yu also felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, and couldn't help but look at the other person one more time, and asked,

"Are you looking for me? What's the matter?"

"Ah, yes, yes! Something happened, something happened!"

Lu Shuwu came back to his senses, quickly took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, nodded with a smile and said,

"Hello boss, my surname is Lu and my name is Lu Shuwu. I came here to ask if there is still a shortage of people in our store?"

Seeing the hesitation on Jiang Yu's face, he quickly added,

"I can do a little bit of everything, and I don't need to be paid, as long as I take care of food and housing!"

Before Jiang Yu could speak, Hu Zhihai, who had been standing by and watching, couldn't help but ask:

"Tell me, what do you do?"

"I can do it, that's a lot!"

Fortunately, this did not happen.

"It seems that you have indeed made soup dumplings. That's good. If you are willing, you can stay and make them for a few days.

“I can do all the jobs that clerks can do, such as selling steamed buns and cashiering. I can also do odd jobs such as washing steamers, washing dishes, mopping floors and wiping tables.

Seeing that the two of them seemed to be having trouble dealing with each other, Jiang Yu, of course, couldn't just watch from the side, so he quickly interrupted and changed the subject, saying,

"We are really short of a pastry chef in the store right now. We don't need to do anything else. He just needs to be able to make soup dumplings."

After thinking for a while, he added,

"Boss, actually I really don't need wages, as long as the store can provide food and accommodation, do you think?"

For more complex tasks, such as kneading dough and making buns, even if you ask me to cook a few dishes to go with wine, I will still be unambiguous."

When Jiang Yu heard this, it made sense. He looked back at Lu Shuwu and asked tentatively:

I don't know whether it was due to same-sex repulsion or some other reason. When Hu Zhihai saw Lu Shuwu's handsome and somewhat ruffian face, he always felt a little displeased and couldn't help but feel a little bit irritated when he spoke.

"When I was studying in university in the north, I learned how to make soup dumplings from a master chef, and my level was pretty good."

Hu Zhihai was startled: "Good guy, I live in a five-star hotel and work in a bun shop!"

"Don't you have a place to live? Where do you live now?"

Lu Shuwu’s purpose in learning cooking is to be able to eat the food he wants anytime, anywhere. He also enjoys the process of turning various ingredients into delicious food, but he does not want to be a cook like his grandfather and be trapped in the kitchen all his life.

In a small space, cook for the sake of cooking.

"Yes, yes!"

Lu Shuwu was a little embarrassed and said with a smile,

In fact, the fundamental "conflict" between him and his grandfather is not about whether to learn cooking skills, but about whether to be a cook.

"There is no difference between the preparation of soup dumplings and steamed buns. The only difference is that the noodles of authentic soup dumplings are dead noodles, unlike steamed buns, which need to be fermented."

"Do you still have money in your pocket to rent a house? If not, you can pay some from me first, and the rent will be paid by the store."

In my opinion, you'd better stay in the store to familiarize yourself with the situation and get started, and then I'll take you there when the store closes in the evening."

Before Lu Shuwu could speak, Hu Zhihai waved his hand, turned around and patted Lu Shuwu on the shoulder, and said with a serious look,

How else can you think about this?

Who knew that when I came to Jiangzhou this time, I would meet such a weirdo with superb cooking skills in the school cafeteria?

There is a saying that goes well, every true foodie actually has a chef living in his heart.

But he did as he pleased and learned whatever he liked.

"I only stayed here for two or three days, and I will soon be out of money."

"Do you still want to wrap it up?"

"Xiao Lu, don't go out to rent a house by yourself. You're not familiar with the place. Living alone is neither safe nor boring. Living with me can help you relax by chatting.

By the way, do you have your ID card and health certificate?"

Hu Zhihai looked surprised and couldn't help but look at him twice more and muttered:

He thought to himself, this kid has an unknown origin, who knows if he has any bad intentions, so he should just keep an eye on him and feel at ease!

If I hadn't thought about being able to eat his delicious food as soon as possible, I wouldn't have stayed. If I hadn't stayed, my grandfather wouldn't have let my dad block my bank card. If I hadn't blocked my bank card,

I can still stay in five-star hotels...

After all, you know the situation in this store. Many people come to buy soup dumplings every day, so the workload is very heavy. I'm worried that you won't be able to adapt to the intensity.

Lu Shuwu: "..."

"You are almost out of money, but you are still staying in a five-star hotel. What are you thinking?"

Hu Zhihai was choked all of a sudden and his face turned red from holding it in.

"Otherwise, you can rent a house nearby by yourself later."

Over time, he developed excellent cooking skills.

Hu Zhihai, who hadn't spoken for a long time, couldn't help but speak.

When Lu Shuwu mentioned this, his face regained some confidence, and he said with a smile,

"Oh, you are so awesome! Why don't you go to a big restaurant instead of a small stall like ours?"

Lu Shuwu glanced at Hu Zhihai strangely and asked seriously,

“Can a big restaurant make such delicious soup dumplings and hot and sour soup?”

This is another "conflict" between Lu Shuwu and his grandfather.

If you can get used to it, we can talk about the treatment then.

"You are right, the soup dumplings are made from dead dough, because the dough after fermentation is fluffy and soft, and it is difficult to lock the soup in the soup dumplings."

Seeing that he could stay, Lu Shuwu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that the other party would refuse. If that happened, then he would have no choice but to run home in despair as his little sister said before.

Lu Shuwu said honestly, "It's the Qinghu Hotel opposite the square."

"Hey, why bother?"

He nodded to Lu Shuwu and said with a smile,

Of course, none of this is actually important. What is important is that he can indeed make soup dumplings.

"Isn't there an empty room where I live? It's empty anyway, just let Xiao Lu live here!"

"You just said you know how to knead dough and make buns?"

"The reason why I come here is of course because the boss is a superb cook. It's not something shameful."

“Stay in a hotel in the city.”

The other one, his grandfather is a master of Hunan cuisine, also hopes that he can become a chef specializing in Hunan cuisine, and does not want to see him like a hodgepodge, learning a dish here, a dish there, knowing everything but not being good at anything.

Hearing what he said, Jiang Yu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worrying about where to find the pastry chef. Unexpectedly, less than a day later, the pastry chef came to his door. It seemed that he had been busy during this period.

Very lucky.

Lu Shuwu nodded and said,

As a big foodie, Lu Shuwu not only likes food, but also likes to study how to make food. Whenever he encounters a food that interests him, he will try to make it himself.

Jiang Yu himself lived in the school dormitory, so naturally he couldn't provide him with a place to live. After thinking about it, he could only let Lu Shuwu rent a house by himself. He said,

"That's why I thought about asking my boss to provide me with a place to live. I don't have to choose, as long as I have a place to sleep at night."

"this……"

"what do you think?"

"No problem, that's good too, thank you boss!"

Lu Shuwu responded with a smile, but complained to Hu Zhihai in his heart:

Xiao Lu...

Xiao Lu, you’re such a big-headed guy, your labor and capital are bigger than yours, okay?!
