When Huang Zhekai entered the hotel, he didn't say hello to Wang Xun or Liu Jinglong. He walked around in a familiar way and went directly to the small garden between the front hall and the back kitchen of the hotel.
This is the rest area for the chefs. At this time, there is a man wearing a high-end chef's hat squatting aside and smoking.
This is the person Huang Zhekai is looking for today.
He immediately walked over, squatted down next to the other party with a smile, and handed out a pack of cigarettes:
"Brother Sun, you are now the chef of our Mingyue Hotel. Why are you looking so gloomy?"
"Come on, smoke some huazi, calm down the fire, and talk to your brothers."
Seeing the Huazi handed over by Huang Zhekai, the eyes of Sun Deming, the chef of Mingyue Hotel, suddenly lit up.
Although he is a chef, he is usually reluctant to smoke such a good cigarette.
He took Huazi unceremoniously, lit it and smoked it fiercely, patted Huang Zhekai on the shoulder and said:
"You still have a filial heart, and it's worthy of my taking care of you."
Huang Zhekai smiled flatteringly:
"Brother Sun, you are right. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today. How could I not be obsessed with you?"
As the chef of Mingyue Hotel, Sun Deming has a lot of power in the selection of food in the hotel.
Sun Deming said that the restaurant would use whose food he wanted to use. Under normal circumstances, the boss Liu Jinglong would not interfere or object at all to show respect for the chef.
That's why Huang Zhekai worked hard to please Sun Deming. He usually couldn't bear to smoke a cigarette, but now he offered Sun Deming to squander it as if he didn't need money.
Xu Shihuazi had an effect. After taking a few hard puffs, Sun Deming frowned and said slowly:
"As you know, I, the head chef, have always been in charge of the kitchen at Mingyue Hotel, and basically there have been no problems."
"But a few days ago, Boss Liu had some trouble and insisted on inserting a sous chef into my kitchen, and she is a woman. What do you mean by this?"
"Originally, I was in charge of everyone, but suddenly there is an additional deputy leader. Who do you want the people below to listen to? Do you still have to lead my team?"
When Huang Zhekai heard this, he knew that the sous chef was definitely Jiang Wantong, but he kept a calm expression on his face and said haha:
"It's just a sous chef, so it's not a big deal, right? Doesn't she still have to listen to you? Is it possible that a sous chef has more power than you, a boss?"
Sun Deming smoked his cigarette and said with a depressed look:
"It would be great if she really listened to me in everything. The problem is that this woman is too lenient."
Huang Zhekai narrowed his eyes:
"How to say?"
Sun Deming said:
"You also know that I am a very strict person. I will write down any mistakes the boys in the kitchen make. When the time comes to pay wages... I will deduct a little bit and teach them a lesson. The main thing is actually for their own good. ,Right."
"Just two days ago, my superiors issued this month's salary. As usual, I will punish a few people... The intention is of course not to deduct money or anything."
"But the new sous chef didn't know where he was. He suddenly jumped out and said that what I did was wrong. He said that the hotel did not have these regulations on deducting money. Even if he had to deduct money, it was Boss Liu who had the right to deduct money. I No such right."
"You're saying this isn't a blatant attempt to dismantle me? If this continues, who will listen to me in the future?"
Huang Zhekai immediately looked shocked and said:
"Why is this like this? This is too disrespectful to you."
Sun Deming spread his hands:
"Who says it's not the case? But this woman named Jiang Wantong was stuffed in by Boss Liu himself. I can't do anything about her. You think this is really annoying."
After Sun Deming finished speaking, he smoked another cigarette depressedly.
If he were to be replaced by an ordinary sous chef, Sun Deming had thousands of ways to deal with him, but Liu Jinglong was standing behind Jiang Wantong, which made him feel a little unsure and he hesitated to attack him.
Seeing that the time was right, Huang Zhekai immediately patted his thigh and said:
"Jiang Wantong? I know this person."
Sun Deming's eyes lit up, he stopped smoking, and asked hurriedly:
"What's going on, brother, do you know that woman? Do you know her background?"
Huang Zhekai curled his lips and immediately said disdainfully:
"What kind of background can she have? She and I are from the same hometown, and she is just good at cooking. I think the boss just likes her cooking skills."
"In the past, our village held a running banquet, and she helped cook a few times. Everyone praised her for her skills. Later, she got married, and I haven't seen her for a long time."
"As for her background, she comes from a woman's family in a remote rural area. How can she have such a background?"
When Sun Deming heard this, he immediately slapped his thigh and said:
"Oh brother, if you had told me this two days earlier, I wouldn't be so worried."
"We have to find a way to drive this woman away. If this continues, our affairs may become dirty."
"Just yesterday, she questioned why the dishes I picked were obviously high-quality and high-priced, but why they were not fresh at all. She almost pointed at my nose and said I received kickbacks."
Upon hearing this, Huang Zhekai hated Jiang Wantong even more, and immediately said harshly:
"Brother Sun, don't worry. As long as you cooperate, I can find a way to drive this woman away."
After saying that, he leaned into Sun Deming's ear and whispered.
After hearing this, Sun Deming's eyes immediately lit up, he slapped his thigh hard and said:
"Wonderful, your plan is good, I'll do as you say."
Looking at the motivated Sun Deming, Huang Zhekai smiled and felt proud.
He wanted to see how Jiang Wantong would act crazy in front of him in the future without the job of sous chef.
At that time, if I throw some money at random, wouldn't she just beg for support?
At nine o'clock in the evening, Mingyue Hotel sent away the last group of fish-eating guests, and the employees finally got off work.
In the past few days, because of the fairy fish incident, the restaurant business was extremely booming, forcing them to work overtime until very late.
Jiang Wantong walked out of the hotel door with the employees who were off duty. Just as she was thinking about how to get back, she heard the familiar sound of the whistle.
On the roadside, Zhang Dachuan was sitting in a pickup truck, waving his hand and smiling at her.
He went to the rental house in the afternoon, and when Jiang Wantong disappeared from get off work in the evening, he drove here specially to wait.
Since the last experience of sleeping in the same bed, the two were no longer as awkward as before in the village. Zhang Dachuan would come to the rental house to live with Jiang Wantong from time to time.
Euphemistically called protection.
Although Jiang Wantong was shy, she did not tell anyone, and the two of them understood each other tacitly.
Seeing Zhang Dachuan at this time, Jiang Wantong was extremely happy and ran over immediately:
"Dachuan, you are here."
Zhang Dachuan saw that her face was tired, but she was very energetic, so he smiled and said:
"I came here during the day. I didn't call you because I was afraid of disturbing your work. How about this? I think this job is okay."
Jiang Wantong got into the car and said happily:
"Well, I like this job very much. The people in the kitchen are very nice and everyone is very polite to me."
"By the way, are you free tomorrow? Do you want to come to the restaurant to see if my skills have improved? I've already said hello to Boss Liu."
“I used to learn Yeluzi in the village, and I wasn’t very particular about its usage and ingredients, but I’ve been exposed to it over the past week, and I feel like my cooking skills have improved again.”
Zhang Dachuan understood this and said with a smile:
"That's great, I'm blessed again."
Jiang Wantong pursed her lips and smiled brightly and movingly:
"You are very lucky."
The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
