"I think your idea is better. Open a teahouse first and then expand the business..." Zhou Sen felt that he still had to start from reality.
"Now that we have the capital, it would be a waste to open just one restaurant. I think we can open another restaurant, just as you mentioned in the plan, with an open kitchen design. As long as our dishes reach a certain level, We will definitely be able to attract customers." Although Bai Yulan feels that Zhou Sen's plan is difficult to implement at the moment, there are many ideas in it that can be used.
"Okay, you are better at doing business than me. I'll listen to you." Zhou Sen nodded and offered ideas, but in actual operation, he was really far behind.
"Aren't you afraid that I will lose all your money?"
"If you make a profit, each person will get half of it. If you lose, just treat it as the gift money I gave you." Zhou Sen looked at Bai Yulan and said.
"Are you serious?"
"certainly."
"Well, then go back early, I don't care about dinner here." Bai Yulan said with her eyelashes trembling slightly.
"I want to sit there for a while. There's nothing to do anyway when I go back?" Zhou Sen chuckled. Bai Yulan didn't explicitly refuse, which is a welcome improvement.
"You can stay here if you want, but don't come into my study." Bai Yulan drew a red line for him and said.
"Okay, I get it."
Bai Yulan didn't believe that Zhou Sen would abide by the rules, but after she entered the study, she couldn't hear anything outside after a while, so she opened the door and came out to take a look.
It was discovered that Zhou Sen was no longer there.
Driven by curiosity, she went down to the attic and heard the sound of laughter coming from the kitchen downstairs. Who could it be if it wasn't Zhou Sen and Axiang?
"Axiang, let me tell you, when making this lion head, the most important thing is the meat filling. The meat must be fat and lean pork belly, and the meat must be cut along this grain..."
"Brother Sen, how come you, a young master from a rich family, know so many cooking skills?" A Xiang asked with admiration.
"I am an old gourmet. Even if my cooking skills are not as good as those of the royal chefs at state banquets, at least I cannot lose to those mediocre chefs. In fact, if I eat too much, I will inevitably have to understand the cooking method. Over time, I will master it. Zhou Sen said without blushing or heart beating.
"Then how much delicious food did you have to eat?" Axiang asked curiously.
"That's a lot. You, Brother Sen, have hundreds of dishes in your mind. Sichuan cuisine, stewed vegetables, Huaiyang cuisine, Cantonese cuisine. As long as you have the ingredients, I can make them for you. The standard is at least It also has to be at the level of Chef Houdofu!”
"Just brag, the chef of Hou Defu, he is the direct descendant of the royal chef of the palace who served as a Man-Han banquet." Axiang curled her lips.
"There's a Man-Han banquet. It's been so many years since Lafayette died. He probably has never seen what a Man-Han banquet is."
"have you seen?"
"I haven't seen it either, but I know what the dishes are for the Manchu-Han Banquet. However, it's not easy to get the raw materials for these dishes now, let alone eat them." Zhou Sen chuckled, "It's better not to overdo it. Think about it, you have learned everything I taught you, and from now on, you will be the head chef of our Ningxiang Restaurant."
"I'm the head chef?"
"Yes, could it be me?"
"No, Brother Sen, how can I do this..."
"No one is born with skills. They are all learned and earned through hard work. You have talent. As long as you learn well, I will teach you three dishes every day. How many dishes can you learn in a month?" What about one year?" Zhou Sen encouraged while making stuffing.
Outside the window, Bai Yulan, who was listening to the conversation between the two, couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
In fact, Zhou Sen already knew that Bai Yulan was outside. His words were obviously meant for Axiang, but they were also meant for her.
Bai Yulan didn't knock on the door after all. She listened for a while and then went back directly.
…
While drinking the delicious mushroom soup, Bai Yulan asked Axiang, "He's gone?"
"Brother Sen said, you didn't keep him to eat, why didn't he leave?" Axiang nodded.
"Why is he so obedient this time?"
"This..." This is a question that Axiang can't handle. You two have always hidden what you said, and you want others to guess?
"Did he teach you how to make this steamed rice dumpling?"
"ah……"
"Ah, what? From now on, when he teaches you, you should study seriously and don't act like a flirt. Do you understand?" Bai Yulan scolded.
"Oh, Sister Lan, you heard it all, hee hee, is Sister Lan jealous?"
"Damn girl, your skin is itchy, isn't it..."
…
When he got home, he threw away his coat, took off his shoes, and lay down on the sofa. This day was quite tiring, especially after learning that Anthony's father participated in the infamous top-secret assassination plan "Bear Job", he was heartbroken. No longer calm.
Damn, this is like trapping yourself into a sinkhole.
How to play this?
Now that others have died, leaving a mess for themselves, what kind of "priest" is there? This kind of secret organization has always been doomed to no good results as long as you join it.
Oh, it's just fatal.
"Master Wasim, what do you want to eat for dinner?" Irina came over and asked.
"Whatever, just make me a bowl of noodles." Zhou Sen thought for a while, but he didn't have the appetite to eat.
"Okay." Irina didn't ask any more questions. Anyway, she just followed her little master's instructions.
Zhou Sen searched his mind for information about the "Bear Job" that he knew. It was probably that the Japanese intelligence agency sent an assassination team to sneak into Soviet Russia through a third country.
He entered the holiday villa through a sewer on the seaside and entered the bathroom to carry out the assassination operation, but this operation had already been mastered by the Soviet side.
This action team was surrounded by border guards before they entered Soviet Russia. The assassination plan failed. Some people came back alive, while others were shot dead on the spot by the Soviet army.
If Akiyama Nosuke had not told lies, Anthony's father would have been one of the action team members who was killed.
The failure of the "Bear Job" was later discovered by the Japanese to be an internal leak, and there were Soviet undercover agents among the White Russian members of the action team.
In other words, someone had already sent their plan to the Soviet intelligence agency.
The Japanese military intelligence agency does not know who this person is. Therefore, whether he comes back alive or is dead, it is questionable.
Although Anthony's father is dead, he will still be under the suspicion of the Japanese intelligence agency, if Anthony is the lurking Soviet Russian agent.
Then he must not be alone, because it is impossible to pass on such important information by just one person.
He must be online or offline in Bingcheng, so people who are close to him will naturally be included as suspects.
He is the adopted son of Anthony's father, so he must be the biggest target of suspicion, and he also has a police identity that is convenient for him...
Zhou Sen knew that the Japanese intelligence agency had been investigating for a long time but could not find this so-called mole lurking in Soviet Russia. The real leaker was in Tokyo, not Manchuria at all, let alone Ice City.
It is the famous "Ramza" group.
In other words, there may not be any Soviet spies in the "Bear Job" assassination team. All this is false, or it is simply false news deliberately leaked by the Soviet side to divert the investigation direction of the Japanese intelligence agency. .
This is extremely possible. In order to protect one's own strategic intelligence agents, it is also a routine operation to disclose false information to the other party through secrets and disrupt the direction of the other party's investigation.
Inexplicable kidnapping, and inexplicable release...
If it were the original person, he would really believe it, but now he doesn't believe the nonsense told by the Japanese at all. Maybe Anthony's father is still alive and is still undergoing screening by the Japanese.
If Anthony's father is alive but the Japanese tell him that he is dead, then the Japanese are actually observing and investigating him. Do they suspect that he is a leaker?
The bug on the chandelier in the study at home can explain it clearly.
There is no one else except the Japanese.
They probably didn't notice anything unusual about themselves, but the fact that they listened to Russian radio broadcasts on those two nights...
This is troublesome. I listened to the radio late at night, and it was in Russian. It happened two nights in a row. I can’t explain it.
This thing is getting darker and darker as it is described. Since it was not mentioned immediately afterwards, there is no need to take the initiative to mention it in the future.
However, that fable always felt like it was being told to him. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?
If the hunter and the wolf refer to Father Anthony and him respectively, now the hunter is dead and the wolf is still alive.
But in the story, the wolf died to save the hunter. The wolf died but the hunter lived.
In other words, one must die so that the other can live. Father Anthony must die before he can live.
Zhou Sen felt that he was thinking too much. Is there really such a profound meaning in this?
But the hunter is already dead, how can he still use this method to convey this kind of information to him? unless……
If that's the case, wouldn't that be the case with Daddy Anthony?
"Master Wasim, the noodles are ready, do you want to eat them now?" Irina came over, bent down and asked.
"Yeah, okay, I'll be right here."
He was not used to eating noodles with a knife and fork, but he was still used to using chopsticks. After filling his stomach, Zhou Sen went directly upstairs.
Go back to the room, close the door, and continue thinking about the problem just now.
He went through everything that had happened since he woke up from Ningxiang Pavilion in his mind, not missing a single detail.
Whatever he thought was inconsistent with normal circumstances and logic, he wrote it down in pencil one by one and marked it with time.
Of course, there was also the situation that he knew clearly in his mind but never mentioned to anyone that he was being followed and that a bug was found in his home.
After this line, Zhou Sen found that there was a pair of hands behind him controlling everything.
It started when he was suddenly announced to be promoted to police lieutenant.
His life trajectory was no longer plain and real, and began to undergo drastic changes.
Zhou Sen has not received any professional special training, but he has some basic skills in this field. Coupled with his years of work, his logical reasoning and analysis abilities are naturally much stronger than those of ordinary people.
The Japanese have done so many things on themselves, allowing them to investigate cases, secretly arranging for people to follow them, and installing bugs to monitor themselves. Isn't it obvious what their intentions are?
They suspected that Anthony's father was a mole lurking in the "Bear Hunting" team, and wanted to find a breakthrough in themselves, or they simply doubted themselves.
This is a special screening.
Zhou Sen threw the manuscript paper into the fireplace, burned it all, then went to bed and lay down. How should he deal with it next? Will the Japanese continue to test him?
Zhou Sen has insomnia...
