"What's going on, miss? Why are you bringing outsiders to the kitchen? And you're bringing them here yourself?"
"I heard that this is a famous chef who came here to try the dishes!"
"Really? I don't look very good at it!"
The employees of Jufu Restaurant pointed in a low voice.
Wei Han ignored them and scanned the entire kitchen.
This kitchen occupies a very wide area, but it only has eight stoves and a few chopping boards. The rest of the place is neatly tidied and looks clean.
"What do you want to try, Mr. Qiao?" Xu Youran asked softly: "I have already told you, how about all the kitchen staff cooperating with you today?"
"No need to bother!"
Wei Han waved his hand nonchalantly.
Without asking anyone for help, I just put on an apron.
Then he raised his hand to pick from the food box, and soon he started to get busy.
His purpose today is very simple, which is to show off his skills in a small way and let Xu Youran confirm his ability before discussing the next cooperation matters.
Therefore, it is necessary to show your ability!
Wei Han first chopped up half of the lamb carcass, blanched it, added it to the pot, added eighteen warming and tonic herbs, and carefully cooked a pot of medicinal food.
His movements are quick and smooth, as beautiful as art, making people unable to take their eyes away.
Then he took the time to stir-fry three side dishes in the large pot on the side.
They are a braised fish, a stir-fried live chicken, and a spicy pork steak!
These are just ordinary home-cooked dishes in Blue Star, but with the blessing of Wei Han's cooking skills, they appear to be full of color, flavor and flavor.
The amazing aroma wafted out, and everyone inside and outside the kitchen couldn't help but salivate.
Everyone looked at the three dishes with green eyes like beggars who had been hungry for half a year.
The expressions of the chefs in particular were extremely rich. They were all shocked and looked like they had seen a ghost. They obviously couldn't understand why the food he cooked was so delicious.
"Shopkeeper Xu, the medicinal food still needs to be stewed for a while. Let's try these three humble side dishes first, please!" Wei Han waved his hand with a smile.
“It smells so good!”
Xu Youran couldn't care less about being reserved.
She elegantly picked up a piece of fish and tasted it.
For a moment, it was as if he had been struck by lightning. Not only did his eyes widen, he couldn't help but chew a few more times regardless of the image.
"Try something else!" Wei Han reminded.
"good!"
Xu Youran solemnly tried a few more mouthfuls.
After picking up more than a dozen chopsticks in a row, she realized that she was a little out of sorts.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Qiao, these dishes are so delicious. I have never tasted such delicious dishes, little girl. Not only are they incomparable to restaurants in Qingshan County, but even in the county, I, little girl, have never tasted such delicious food." I have never seen any restaurant with better dishes than these, it’s amazing!” Xu Youran blushed and praised with bright eyes.
"Is it really that powerful?"
"I don't know, it smells really good!"
“I really want to try it!”
Everyone around was talking quietly.
"You guys should try it too!" Xu Youran put down her chopsticks, and while taking care of everyone to taste it, she said to Wei Han, "Mr. Qiao, how about we talk in a private room?"
"good!"
Wei Han nodded and agreed.
The two of them returned to the private room just now.
Also brought along was a simple version of the medicated meal that had been cooked.
"Mr. Qiao!" As soon as he sat down, Xu Youran couldn't help but win over him: "My little lady sincerely invites you to be the chef of our Jufu Restaurant. As long as you are willing to agree, the price and everything can be easily negotiated, and in the future You will be responsible for all the kitchen in the restaurant, how about that?"
"Actually!" Wei Han shook his head decisively and said, "I'm not interested in being a cook. Cooking delicious food is just because I like to eat."
"this?"
Xu Youran was speechless.
The sword-wielding maid on the side stared with anger and said: "You are not interested in being a cook, so why did you come to the restaurant to try the dishes? Are you here to play a trick on us?"
"Of course not!" Wei Han tapped his fingers on the table and said seriously: "I never said that I came to apply for a job as a chef. What I said was to talk about cooperation. I told you a cooperation method. If you can accept it, then accept it. If you accept it, If not, then just pretend that what happened today never happened.”
"Sir, please speak!" Xu Youran signaled softly.
"Yes!" Wei Han nodded and said, "The cooperation method is very simple. From now on, I will arrive at the store at 9 o'clock in the morning and leave at 8 o'clock in the morning. I will only stay for an hour every day and be personally responsible for cooking the medicinal food."
"When I have time, I will also guide the chefs in the restaurant to improve their skills, and teach them a few special dishes. I will ensure that the restaurant's business will grow tenfold or a hundredfold."
"And my request is very simple. I only need 20% of the total monthly revenue of Jufu Restaurant. Remember! It is the total revenue. I don't care about costs. I only want 20% of the total revenue!"
Xu Youran and the maid Xiaolu looked at each other.
Both women had strange eyes and remained silent for a while.
What kind of weird way of cooperation is this?
Just come in for an hour every day in the morning, and then ask for 20% of the restaurant's total revenue? Is there such easy money in the world?
There are many restaurants and restaurants in Qingshan County, and the competition between them is also high.
Excluding various costs and food loss, the profit should be only 40 to 50%.
Wei Han asked for 20% of the total income. To put it bluntly, he made more money than his boss, and he didn't need any investment at all.
"Sir, can we discuss this cooperation method?" Xu Youran frowned and asked tentatively.
"There's no need to talk. If you want to agree, just agree. If you don't want to agree, I'll find another restaurant to cooperate with. That's all." Wei Han said without any doubt: "Of course, I can also give Shopkeeper Xu two guarantees. First, you The restaurant business will definitely be popular in the county after I take over, and we will make a lot of money every day! If it is not popular, you can kick me out directly."
"Second, you can send an apprentice to study with me, and I will never hide it. If you think someone can replace me at any time, our cooperation can be canceled at any time!"
"That's it, you think about it for yourselves, oh by the way! Remember to try this pot of medicinal food, it will give you a surprise. I will come over tomorrow morning, and you can tell me the answer then."
After saying that, Wei Han stood up and left!
After Xu Youran said goodbye again and again, he sat back in his seat with a sense of loss.
"What a strange person." Xu Youran muttered with a wry smile: "Lu'er, what kind of person do you think this Mr. Qiao Feng is?"
"I don't know, but he is not very old, younger than me." Lu'er answered seriously.
"How is that possible?" Xu Youran exclaimed, "At his age, he must be in his thirties or forties at worst, right?"
"No, miss." Lu'er smiled: "You know my nose has been different from ordinary people's since I was a child. Although he has amazing disguise skills and has no flaws in his body shape, demeanor, or smell, I can smell something on him. He has a vitality that is different from ordinary people."
"Vitality?" Xu Youran was surprised.
"That's right!" Lu'er thought for a while and said, "Everyone has a smell. The little baby has a nice milky smell, and the old man has a rotten smell. His smell is very, very special. Anyway, he’s definitely not that old.”
"What an interesting guy." Xu Youran covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Miss, is his cooperation too much? Do you want to agree?" Lu'er asked curiously.
Xu Youran didn't answer immediately, but scooped up a bowl of medicinal food.
While tasting it silently, as if he had discovered some great treasure, the light in his eyes was getting brighter and brighter.
