Province Fucheng Chun Hotel.
Du Yingchun's cell phone rang suddenly. He looked at the caller ID and quickly answered the call: "Hello, Chef Liu."
Liu Yongping asked: "Has the batch of seasonings sent from the capital been put into storage?"
Du Yingchun said quickly: "The goods arrived in the afternoon, I haven't had time to take stock yet."
Liu Yongping ordered: "Okay, think carefully. There are two gift boxes prepared for Fu Yu. They will be sent directly to Bei'an Maxima Hotel tomorrow. Do you have Fu Yu's phone number?"
Du Yingchun responded: "Yes, just leave his phone number when the time comes."
After the matter was explained, Liu Yongping asked again: "Lao Du, did you watch the news just now?"
Du Yingchun smiled and said: "Yes, I saw it."
Liu Yongping said with emotion: "Xiao Fu is really amazing. I knew he was quite capable, but I really didn't expect him to win the championship in one fell swoop and break the previous score record!"
Du Yingchun sighed: "Chef Liu, you told me to pay more attention and pay more attention to Fu Yu. He is very talented and has a very high level. I didn't take it to heart at all at the time. By the time I realized it, it was too late. ."
"Now he is Chollima's chef, and he will definitely be the chef in the future!"
Liu Yongping couldn't help but said: "I can only say that Boss Dong from Chollima is really courageous and very lucky! With a capable chef like Fu Yu, the store's business will definitely not have to worry about in the future."
Du Yingchun nodded: "Indeed, but with Fu Yu's ability, I'm afraid Qianlima may not be able to retain him. And after he showed up in this competition, you don't know how many people have wanted to do it through our channels during this period." Contact Fu Yu and poach him."
"I don't know about others. Just in the two days since I went to the capital to be a judge, at least three big hotels in the capital have started to inquire!"
After hearing this, Liu Yongping smiled: "That's for sure. You must know that Fu Yu has the highest score in the history of the National Chef Competition, and his results in these competitions are really excellent. Such an outstanding talent is only 23 years old this year. Who do you think could avoid robbing him if he knew about it?"
Du Yingchun was also quite emotional and couldn't help but sigh.
Yes, such young and talented talents will shine wherever they go.
No matter how you train it, you can achieve results, who wouldn’t want to take advantage of it?
Thinking of this, he shook his head, who would have thought of today?
When Liu Yongping talked about Fu Yu's Shi Hui, he felt that it was somewhat exaggerated.
Now it seems that old age is still the best. Liu Yongping was able to reach his current status because he had extraordinary vision!
The communication that happened in Fuchengchun also happened in many other places in different forms.
Fu Yu and the Chollima Hotel where he works have become hot topics in the entire food circle.
After finishing the meal at noon, Fu Yu did not eat in the kitchen. He said hello to Zhao Meng and took Liu Yuqing to have a delicious spicy hot pot together.
Fu Yu and Liu Yuqing both like to eat heavy oily and spicy food. It is especially easy to make a choice when they go on a date.
When two people are together, it is important for them to have similar personalities, similar tastes, and being able to eat together actually has a great impact on their relationship.
There was no need to go to Shangshi Private Restaurant in the evening, so Fu Yu stayed in the kitchen and took charge of the dishes.
When it was time to get off work, he followed Zhao Meng to Liu Ji BBQ on the side street.
When entering the store, Yao Shi had already arrived.
We ordered a bunch of barbecue and tripe shabu-shabu, and a dozen beers were served directly.
The three of them sat across the table, chatting affectionately and drinking.
Zhao Meng raised his wine glass, touched it with Yao Shi, and said with a smile: "Old Yao, you finally got rid of it completely, congratulations!"
The two of them raised their glasses and drank together.
Yao Shi also smiled: "I have been dragging my feet on this matter all my life. Now that I have finally resigned, I actually feel quite complicated in my heart."
The two brothers squeezed each other's shoulders and patted their backs. Zhao Meng smiled and said, "I can understand your mood. You will slowly get over it in a few days. You can concentrate on your career in the future."
Yao Shi poured another glass of wine with a melancholy expression.
Zhao Meng looked at it and said with a smile: "Cheer up and take this step sooner or later. I'm telling you, you have to keep fighting. I'm still waiting to mess with you!"
Yao Shi smiled: "Okay, come and help me after a while."
Zhao Meng leaned his head and smiled and said, "Okay, I can't bear to do it this time."
Yao Shi's lips curled up: "I think your mentality is quite stable. You can't shed tears when you leave, right?"
Zhao Meng was delighted: "Oh!"
No matter what, Yao Shi came out, and the day when Zhao Meng resigned was not far away.
For Qianli Ma, he must be a little reluctant to leave, but Zhao Meng is still looking forward to following Yao Shi to develop in a music restaurant.
Yao Shi felt really uncomfortable for a while before, but then he experienced so many things. He felt a little melancholy, but mostly relaxed.
From now on, I can focus solely on building my own career. Thinking of this makes me feel very at ease.
Yao Shi turned around and put his hand on Fu Yu's shoulder: "Xiao Fu, you are really up to date. You are so proud of me and Lao Zhao. I answered several calls today, all because of your glory!"
Fu Yu chuckled, but he didn't mean to be modest.
Zhao Meng was also quite happy, with the attitude that his child would be successful and his family would shine brightly.
The three of them drank happily and had a good relationship at first. Now that Yao Shi has resigned, they have become a little closer.
Overcome with drunkenness, Zhao Meng patted Fu Yu on the back: "Time actually doesn't pass very fast. The main reason is that you are like riding a rocket. You are jumping up too fast step by step!"
If someone else were in front of him, Fu Yu would never be as sullen as he is now: "That's necessary! Why don't I have to be better than my master!"
Zhao Meng made a show of punching Fu Yu and said with a smile: "You kid can't be more humble!"
Yao Shi couldn't help but smile as he watched the two of them playing around.
The scene in front of me had a sense of familiarity.
The same place, the same scene, three people sitting around the same table.
Half a year ago, Fu Yu was just a junior worker who had just been promoted to work with Zhao Meng as a cook.
Now, they have become celebrities in the province.
Yao Shi looked at Fu Yu and was really filled with emotion.
Zhao Meng joked with Fu Yu, put his hands on his shoulders, and the smile on his face deepened a little.
He was really happy, happy for Fu Yu, and more importantly, very pleased.
It is actually a very happy thing to be able to see the people you personally promoted develop better and better.
The atmosphere was so good that Fu Yu drank two more drinks and had a good sleep with the help of his drunkenness.
The next morning, he went to the kitchen to prepare a meal for the employees as usual, only to find that Zhang Jiaxin had already started cooking.
Seeing Fu Yu coming, Zhang Jiaxin smiled and said hello: "Good morning, Fu Chu!"
Although it's still the same title, the meaning has long since changed.
Fu Yu is now a chef on par with Zhao Menggu Yunwu.
Previously, according to the leader's wishes, he would immediately arrange a team under him for Fu Yu.
Small workers can be recruited at any time, but the assistant cooks and chefs who can serve as assistants must be trained and trained slowly.
Zhang Jiaxin thought that on Zhao Meng's side, Fu Yu had become independent, and the key training targets must be Sun Qingning and Zhang Jinyu.
As for Gu Yunwu, Qi Shun is obviously doing better than him. It's hard to say who will be promoted to take charge in the future.
In contrast, Fu Yu's side turned out to be a rare opportunity.
Zhang Jiaxin originally admired Fu Yu very much, and now he is obsessed with making friends with him.
In fact, in the kitchen, Zhao Meng and Gu Yunwu originally took turns preparing meals for the employees.
Whenever Gu Yunwu takes charge, Zhang Jiaxin and Qi Shun will take charge.
On the contrary, on Zhao Meng's side, whenever it was his turn, Fu Yu would prepare breakfast almost every time.
Zhang Jiaxin has a stupid mouth and an upright personality, but he is not stupid.
He knew that as long as he could help cook under Fu Yu, he would be more confident about being promoted to chef.
After thinking about it, Zhang Jiaxin woke up early today and took the initiative to rush to the kitchen to help Fu Yu prepare breakfast.
It not only provides more opportunities to get closer, but also cultivates a tacit understanding between each other in advance.
Fu Yu suddenly saw Zhang Jiaxin preparing a staff meal and was stunned for a moment.
He almost thought that he had drunk some wine last night and misremembered the date when he was in charge.
After confirming that Zhao Meng should be in charge of breakfast today, Fu Yu asked strangely: "Jia Xin, we should be the ones cooking today, right? Why are you still here and busy?"
Zhang Jiaxin smiled and said, "I got up early. I can't sleep at this time anyway, so I just wanted to come over and lend a hand."
Fu Yu didn't think much about it when he saw Zhang Jiaxin frying a dish of spicy and sour potato shreds, and the seafood pancake that Bai An brought over last night was hot in the pot.
Seafood pancakes are Chollima's specialty staple food. Fresh shrimp skins are mixed with shredded zucchini and carrots and baked into soft pancakes with batter.
Although it has been refrigerated overnight, the taste is definitely not as good as freshly baked, but it tastes good after re-frying.
Fu Yu stepped forward and started frying seafood pancakes.
As soon as he got started, he heard someone walking in from the back door.
Purchaser Sun Weigang had just finished taking stock of the purchase orders with the workers on the morning shift, and was about to come to the kitchen to find someone to sign, when he suddenly remembered that there was a small bucket of snails and river mussels sent by the supplier on the pickup truck.
As the saying goes, "March is the time for snails and April is the time for mussels." March and April are the seasons when snails and river mussels grow the fattest. At this time, the snail meat is fragrant and plump, and there is no muddy smell. River mussels are the cleanest, and the meat is thick and juicy. It’s a good time to eat.
Chollima is a big customer in the eyes of suppliers. Although Sun Wei is just a purchaser, he usually has quite a lot of power.
In order to maintain a long-term cooperative relationship, suppliers often rush to see what new seafood is in the store and pick some up to give to Sun Wei.
Sun Wei sometimes finds it too troublesome to take it home for cooking, or if he wants to make friends with the chef, he will rush to deliver some seafood in the morning and leave some seafood for the chef.
Sun Wei didn’t keep any of the small bucket of snails and river mussels he received this year.
The main reason is that snails are too troublesome to deal with and no one in his family can do it.
River mussels are too finicky, and the fishy smell will be very strong if they are not cooked properly.
On the other hand, the clam soup made by Chollima's kitchen is really delicious and delicious.
It is said that drinking a bowl of clam soup in spring will prevent prickly heat and sores. Sun Wei usually buys aquatic products, but in winter, even if he wears gloves, his hands will always get frostbite.
So every time it was the best season to eat river mussels, he would specially bring some and let the chef help him make a bowl of soup to replenish them in advance.
Sun Wei was carrying the bucket, still thinking that he wouldn't go home for a while and would have a meal in the kitchen.
He knew that the people in the kitchen were good at craftsmanship and greedy.
The fresh snails and river mussels were sent over, and I guess they will be added to breakfast.
Thinking of the delicious breakfast, Sun Wei ran briskly towards the back door of the hotel. He had been busy all morning, and he was really hungry!
As a result, he was stopped as soon as he took two steps.
Chollima's opening hours are 10:30 am.
The earliest it has to be is around ten o'clock, and it can't be any earlier. After all, the hotel doesn't serve breakfast, and the hotel doesn't open before ten o'clock.
Therefore, even if he heard Sun Wei say that a customer wanted to order food in the store, Fu Yu didn't take it seriously.
Not to mention Fu Yu, even Zhang Jiaxin's first reaction was that the customer wanted to book a table.
After all, it's not even seven o'clock yet.
Fu Yu asked, "Give him the phone number at the front desk. If you want to book a table, just contact him directly when you get to work."
Sun Wei walked to the kitchen counter with a small bucket, put the bucket down first, and then said: "No, he wants to order breakfast in our store."
Fu Yu was stunned, frowned and asked, "Breakfast? Our store doesn't sell breakfast either? What's going on?"
Sun Wei is an old man in the store. Now he is specially sending messages for customers. He must have something to hide.
Sun Wei was actually a little helpless, mainly because the customer stopped him, and the reason was really irresistible.
Sun Wei explained: "His wife is pregnant. IVF failed three times. This time she finally got pregnant. However, because of the great psychological pressure, her reaction during pregnancy was particularly severe. She has an unstable temper and is easily emotional. , If you want to eat something, you must eat it immediately, otherwise you will be tortured to death."
"He wanted to ask our store to help him make a breakfast because his wife had been clamoring for the seafood porridge from our store in the early morning. It is not easy to conceive an IVF baby. It is just over two months now. At the most dangerous time, he He’s worried that because he can’t have a delicious breakfast, his wife will be too emotional and it will affect the fetus.”
Speaking of this, Sun Wei was also a little helpless: "You haven't seen it, he almost knelt down for me, oh, there is really nothing we can do."
Sun Wei's own sister also had a child through in vitro fertilization back then, and she knows all too well the hard work involved.
I can’t imagine how much suffering the pregnant woman must have suffered after failing three times and succeeding only the fourth time.
It was precisely because he knew and understood that Sun Wei felt compassion.
Whenever someone else made a request today, he would be able to handle it very smoothly.
Sun Wei said empathically: "Fu Chu, can we help here? His situation is indeed quite special. My sister was a test-tube baby back then, and she was really stressed. Moreover, pregnancy is really like this. Pregnant women suddenly want to What do you want to eat? If you can't eat, it will be so uncomfortable! It's really, I can't bear it at all." (End of Chapter)
