Food: How Did I Become a Chef When I Set Up a Stall?

Chapter 119 Nonsense Literature Lets You Understand It!

Jiang Feng cooked three dishes in a row.

 Oil-fried Double Crisp, Kongfu Yipin Hot Pot, Sweet and Sour Carp

 In terms of craftsmanship, there is nothing wrong with it.

 In terms of taste, it is the most authentic among the authentic.

Executive chef Zhang Hu was shocked.

 At such an age, not only is he a restaurant owner, but he is also such a good cook.

 It’s really incredible.

Jiang Feng’s skills are at the level of a master chef.

Zhang Hu is an orthodox Shandong cuisine chef who learned his craft from a Shandong cuisine master chef.

 He realized that Jiang Feng’s master might be more powerful than his own master.

Jiang Feng’s background is definitely not simple.

 Actually, Jiang Feng has no background, he just has a system.

 Three dishes were eaten by the chefs.

 Everyone is an expert. Even if his skill is not high, he can still see Jiang Feng's level.

 Just two words: master.

“Boss, you can lead the team easily with your skills. Can I ask who your master is?”

 Zhang Hu said with admiration.

 “I learned it on the Internet myself, without a master.”

Jiang Feng explained.

Hearing what he said, Zhang Hu thought it was inconvenient to say, so he stopped asking any more questions.

 After all, there are quite a lot of grievances among the masters of Shandong cuisine. One doesn't like the other, and the other doesn't like the other, or they say they are more authentic.

  I don’t want to say it’s normal.

Jiang Feng looked at everyone and said:

“My purpose in cooking today is to tell everyone that I know how to make a dish, and I can taste it if it is not done well.”

“In a while, everyone will cook a few dishes as usual.”

 “If you are satisfied, we will sign the contract.”

"The restaurant needs to be renovated for half a month. I will pay you the salary for this half month, provided that you work here from now on."

 “Okay, Lao Zhang, you make the arrangements.”

Jiang Feng acted like a boss when he spoke to everyone.

 Although his words were quite gentle, the majesty in his eyes was still there.

 Seeing him like this, Zhang Hu immediately started making arrangements.

 The chefs are busy at their respective posts.

 Just like an assembly line.

 Everyone is in good spirits.

 The restaurant relies on a team of chefs and cannot be supported by one person.

 So Jiang Feng needs to know people well and assign them well.

 Soon, common dishes were prepared and served in front of Jiang Feng.

 Sweet and sour pork loin, Sixi meatballs, nine-turn large intestine, sweet and sour carp, braised prawns, and fried sea cucumbers with green onions.

Jiang Feng tastes one dish after another.

These dishes are above the standard, the taste is not bad, but there is room for improvement.

Jiang Feng has ideas for improving every dish, but he doesn’t know if these people were working here when they opened the business.

 He plans to hold a training two days before opening.

  Suggestions for improvements will be made after pre-opening training.

“Okay, the workmanship is fine, and the contract can be signed.”

“I will have training before opening, and I will organize it. There are some areas for improvement in these dishes.”

 “My salary is definitely higher than before.”

 “If the business is good, there will be bonuses.”

Jiang Feng said to the chefs.

 Everyone smiled when they heard Jiang Feng's words.

 As long as you can keep doing it.

"Okay, that's it for today. I will communicate with Lao Zhang later. Let's go."

Jiang Feng called Zhang Hu and Liu Mei over again and had a separate meeting.

"We will start decorating tomorrow, mainly adding some fences, screens and the like. It will be completed in half a month. I will be responsible for the publicity by then, and you guys just need to be ready to welcome the guests."

Hearing this, Liu Mei immediately said:

“Boss, I’ll come here every day and keep an eye on it. Someone has to keep an eye on it. After all, the restaurant was just renovated at the end of last year, and it’s only been half a year. I’m afraid the construction team will damage it.”

“Okay, just come and take a look when you have time.”

Jiang Feng arranged everything properly.

 I felt relieved.

 Opening a restaurant is not an easy task, and the possibility of losing money if you don't do it well is very high.

However, Jiang Feng will always make money, because the restaurant is located in a prosperous area and has two floors, so the restaurant itself is worth a lot of money.

 Next, Jiang Feng started busy with the restaurant.

 The system prompts that a new task will be released in three days.

 Before the restaurant opens, Jiang Feng should still have time to set up a stall for a week, and he doesn’t know where he will go yet.

Jiang Feng named his restaurant "Jiang Yuetai Lu Cuisine Restaurant" and also made a logo and registered a trademark.

Soon, the decoration company removed the three characters "Meishi Zhai" on the top of the restaurant, repainted it, brushed it, and hung a plaque, turning it into the three characters "Jiang Yuetai".

 A regular customer of the restaurant came to the restaurant.

 He looked at the newly replaced plaque on the restaurant and suddenly felt a little confused. He happened to see the person in charge of decoration walking out of the restaurant, so he stepped forward and asked:

“Excuse me, Master, this plaque used to say ‘Food Restaurant’, why did it change to ‘Jiang Yuetai’?”

Hearing his words, the person in charge of decoration responded:

“Originally, this was a gourmet restaurant, but now it has been changed to ‘Jiang Yuetai’.”

 After saying that, the person in charge of decoration left directly.

 Familiar customers were dumbfounded.

 Do you want to listen to what you are saying?

　　What about this and this?

 You can understand the nonsense literature!

He thought of the scenes of Bhikkhu Kingdom and Xiaoercheng. After hearing what you said, Monk Tang was so angry that he wanted to hit someone!

But seeing the surrounding decoration materials and the wooden furniture delivered by trucks, regular customers also knew that the food restaurant was closed and had a new owner.

 “Jiangyuetai Shandong Cuisine Restaurant.”

"never heard of that."

 “Is anyone going here?”

He thought secretly in his heart.

Jiang Feng found a very good chef Miao Zi among the chef team.

This man's name is He Tian. He is twenty-five years old. He is the apprentice of executive chef Zhang Hu and Zhang Hu's nephew.

He Tian was not good at studying, so his family asked him to master a craft early. When he was eighteen years old, he learned from Zhang Hu.

He Tian is the stove master and the one that most determines the taste among the seven positions in the kitchen.

 The stove cook is usually a master chef. Whether a dish tastes good or not depends on the stove in most cases.

By chance, it was time for the system to release tasks, and Jiang Feng received a new task.

 【Start the mission: take over the village's big banquets for seven consecutive days and satisfy the diners】

 【Task reward: Each time you complete it, you will be rewarded 1 million yuan】

【Whether to accept? 】

 After receiving the mission, Jiang Feng felt that the reward was very good.

Although he had earned 5 million before, buying a car, buying a small shop at the entrance of the community, and currently decorating the restaurant were all a big expense.

 Earning 70,000 to 80,000 yuan a month from running a stall is not enough.

“It’s another direct reward money, which happens to be the principal needed to invest in a restaurant.”

“And I have employees now, so it’s not a problem at all to take over the banquet.”

Jiang Feng made up his mind.

 Not long after, a villager called Jiang Feng.

"Hello, are you the new owner of Food Restaurant? I was introduced by Duan Feng, the former owner of Food Restaurant. The matter is urgent. The chef team I had booked suddenly broke the appointment. I want to book a banquet from you. We need it tomorrow. "

 The other party eagerly explained the purpose of his visit.

“It’s me, no problem.” Jiang Feng agreed immediately.

 The two chatted about the details.

 The person who called him was quite generous. The order price for one table was 1,200 and he wanted 16 tables.

 A large banquet in rural areas usually costs 400-600 per table. A better price is 800 or 1,200, which is indeed a relatively high price.

Each table is required to have beef, prawns, elbows, lamb chops, meatballs, fried fish, braised fish, stir-fried meat, musu pork, chicken, vegetarian dishes, desserts, cold dishes, etc.

 This is not difficult at all for a team of chefs.

So Jiang Feng immediately called Zhang Hu and told him about it.

 “Boss, no problem!”

“Everyone is already paid, so they can do it in the kitchen and in the village.”

  “Making banquets is a professional counterpart.”

“But boss, I want to say something. It’s best to give everyone a little reward, such as one or two hundred yuan for running errands, so that everyone can work harder and I can lead the team.”

 Zhang Hu was very down-to-earth and said directly.

Hearing this, Jiang Feng smiled and replied:

“Don’t worry, tell everyone, the turnover of this banquet is quite high, I will give each person 400 as hard work fee, and I will give 800 to the three chefs.”

 “I’ll go tomorrow too, and I’ll be responsible for a dish myself.”

“In the next period of time, the restaurant will be renovated. Don’t be idle. Follow me and make extra money.”

Hearing that Jiang Feng was so generous, Zhang Hu suddenly beamed.

 These days, money is the best thing to talk about.

As long as you are willing to give money, anything is easy to discuss.

If you are a stingy boss, you may think that it is only natural for you to go to the village to hold banquets. After all, you have been paid.

 But there will be internal conflicts, and the chefs will definitely not be happy.

 After all, if you travel so far to do private work, you have to be reimbursed for your travel expenses, and you also have to pay some hard work.

Jiang Feng made a rough calculation. For a 19,200 banquet, the ingredients cost almost 5,000. He gave 12 chefs 4,800 and 3 chefs 2,400. In total, he could earn 7,000.

 Has made a lot of money.

 Then, Jiang Feng contacted the butcher shop owner.

The butcher shop owner has always cooperated with Jiang Feng and never fooled him.

It is precisely because of this that he won a big order from the "Jiang Yuetai" restaurant.

 Purchasing matters can be tricky, so Jiang Feng chose to take matters into his own hands.

 Zhang Hu reported the demand, and Jiang Feng contacted the butcher shop owner to prepare meat and vegetables. As for seafood, he continued to cooperate with the previous dealer.

The butcher shop owner didn’t expect that good luck would suddenly come from heaven!

 I became rich all of a sudden.

 He respected Jiang Feng more and more in his heart.

Jiang Feng is simply his God of Wealth!

 Everything is ready.

“There will be no stalls this week, but a banquet instead.”

 “The banquet in the village should be quite lively.”

Jiang Feng couldn't help but look forward to it.

 Happy New Year everyone!
