From selling box lunches to becoming a famous Chinese chef

Chapter 314 People come back one after another
Relying on the passenger flow at the train station, Feng Zhengming's three large pots of meat were sold out before 2 p.m.

When the stall was closed, some tourists who had not been able to buy a handful of meat looked disappointed.

Feng Zhengming said with a smile: "Don't feel disappointed. When you come back from other places or come to Quancheng again, look for our Feng Family Restaurant. You can eat the most delicious meat at any time."

After hearing what Feng Zhengming said, many people who were about to go to other places said that they would definitely eat here when they return to Quancheng.

And those who had just come to Quancheng from other places asked when they would come to sell again tomorrow?

Feng Zhengming said that he would come to the train station to sell at noon every day.

"If you want to come tomorrow, you can come to this old place again. The Feng Family Restaurant needs to be renovated, so for more than a month we will be selling meat at the train station at noon and here at night. Biangan Food Stall, everyone is welcome to join us and try the authentic Shandong cuisine stir-fry."

Feng Zhengming was really rude and showed no humility at all. He directly claimed that his Xiao Chao was authentic Shandong cuisine.

This made many people who were new to Quancheng say that if they have time in the evening, they must come and try his craftsmanship.

After all the customers dispersed, Feng Zhengming packed up his things and took his younger siblings and Xia Hui to clean up some of the garbage around them.

Xia Hui wondered: "Why do you only bring one pot? Handfuls of pork are the signature of our restaurant."

And waited for Feng Zhengming and others to push the cart back to the dry rice shop.

Zhang Hongwei still couldn't help but want to fight for it: "Brother, I'm a boy, I can do it, and I can bring my homework with you. While helping the waiters to greet the guests, I can also do my homework next to you."

Feng Zhengming smiled and said: "No reason, because you are too young to stay up late."

Zhang Hongwei saw Feng Shengnan staring at him and said unhappily: "Why should she supervise my homework? She is younger than me and she doesn't understand my homework."

Feng Zhengming said: "You have finished writing, but you are a girl, and you are too young to stay up late. We should have to do it until 0 o'clock at night, or even until after 1 o'clock."

Feng Zhengming smiled and said: "Okay, okay, don't flatter me here. I'm working at the food stall at night. Shengnan and Hongwei shouldn't follow me. The food stall may work late and it will delay your sleep." .”

Feng Shengnan pouted, but did not open his mouth to protest.

Feng Zhengming said: "You will do your homework at grandpa's house honestly. If you can finish it before school starts, I will let you follow."

When the two of them saw Feng Zhengming and the others coming back, they rushed to greet them together.

Xia Hui smiled and said, "Sister is now an adult."

As a result, Feng Shengnan immediately raised his little hand and shouted: "I've finished writing."

Zhang Hongwei immediately expressed his stance: "I can stay up late. I'm not young anymore. I'm already in my second year of high school."

Wei Xiuling took her daughter and walked forward and said, "Xiao Xia is back too?"

As soon as these words came out, Feng Shengnan and Zhang Hongwei almost protested in unison.

After all this persuasion, Feng Shengnan finally nodded and agreed not to follow him that night.

Leave a good impression on the people at the train station and city management, and it will be easier to talk to them if they continue to set up stalls in the future.

Xia Hui thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "It's true."

Feng Zhengming followed his grandfather's words and persuaded him: "You can stay at home with grandpa, and you can also supervise your brother's homework."

Feng Shengnan said: "Because I have already finished writing."

"We're coming too."

Although I do business near the train station, I also attach great importance to the hygiene here.

Before Feng Shengnan could continue to protest, grandpa spoke: "Okay, Shengnan, you can come with me at noon, but don't come with me at night, otherwise your parents will definitely be worried, and so will grandpa."

Feng Zhengming responded: "You also know that you are in the second year of high school? Have you finished your winter vacation homework?"

Zhang Hongwei was speechless for a moment and could only accept this arrangement obediently.

This is done to ensure that the area around the stall is clean and tidy, and also to show off to people at the train station.

The little girl also understands that if she goes to the food stall until 0 o'clock or even 1 o'clock, her parents will definitely not agree.

When Feng Zhengming and others were cleaning, they did see people from the railway station and city management in the distance.

Feng Zhengming said with a smile: "We mainly operate food stalls in the evening. If everyone orders meat to eat, who will we sell the stir-fried vegetables we prepare?"

"Master Feng, did you really go to the train station to set up a stall?"

Watching Feng Zhengming and the others clean up the surrounding area, the staff at the train station and city management were speechless.

Feng Shengnan was unhappy: "It's not fair, why can he come?"

"It makes sense." Xia Hui thought about it and felt it made sense.

"Why?"

Feng Zhengming replied: "Just bring a pot with you at night."

After cleaning up, Feng Zhengming asked Xia Hui to put the things he brought back in the car, and he and everyone else pushed the cart and tricycle back.

On the way back, Xia Hui asked: "Uncle Master, when we come over to eat at the food stall in the evening, should we also make one or two pots of meat and bring it with us?"

Feng Zhengming said: "Because he is a boy, it is not safe for you, a girl, to follow him so late."

I saw Chen Anbang and Wei Xiuling waiting at the door of the shop.

Feng Shengnan heard Xiaohehe say from the side: "Brother Zhengming always makes sense when he speaks."

Feng Shengnan looked at Xia Hui and said, "But sister Xia Hui is also a girl."

Xia Hui took the initiative to tease Wei Xiuling's daughter "Little Hongdou".

"Yes, Sister Wei. As soon as I came back and left the train station, I saw my uncle and the others setting up a stall there. I helped my uncle and the others set up a stall at the train station and sold a bunch of meat, and then came back with them."

Wei Xiuling said with a smile: "I came to the shop and saw Xiao Chen at the door, but the shop was not open. I was wondering if Boss Xiao Feng had gone to the train station to set up a stall, but I didn't expect that he actually went."

Feng Zhengming went to open the door of the shop and responded with a smile: "I just went to practice my skills and see if my trolley still has appeal."

Wei Xiuling said: "It must be true. Who doesn't know that Xiao Feng, the owner of Feng's restaurant, started his business with a pushcart?"

Feng Zhengming turned around and said: "I didn't start out with a pushcart. The pushcart is the inheritance of our family. When my grandfather was young, he used a pushcart to sell meat on the street."

Grandpa Feng smiled and said, "Okay, there's no need to talk about what happened back then. Everyone goes in first."

Let's go into the shop together.

Seeing everything in the shop made everyone feel a little emotional.

Wei Xiuling couldn't help but said: "I really didn't expect that our shop will be expanded after only half a year of work."

Xia Hui said: "Expansion is the best. Expansion means that our business is good, and good business means that everyone recognizes my uncle's craftsmanship."

Xiao Hongdou, who was held by Xia Hui, clapped her little hands and said, "Uncle Feng's cooking is delicious." Feng Zhengming turned his head and poked the little girl's face gently.

"Thank you Anko."

Chen Anbang asked: "Master Feng, you will go to the train station to set up a stall at noon. Do you want to go at night?"

Xia Hui said with a smile: "You really came back at the right time. My uncle is going to continue working at the food stall tonight. Will you come with us tonight?"

Chen Anbang immediately said: "Of course, I will definitely go there tonight."

Wei Xiuling asked: "Boss Xiao Feng, can I go with you tonight?"

Feng Zhengming didn't speak, but Grandpa Feng said first: "Xiao Wei, don't go at night. They may work late at night, and you have to take care of the children. During this time, you can take good care of the children and help clean up the shop by the way. Waiting for the decoration." When the masters come back after the New Year, you will be responsible for delivering water and meals to them.”

After Wei Xiuling heard her grandfather's arrangement, she still looked at Feng Zhengming again to confirm.

After listening to his grandfather's arrangements, Feng Zhengming felt that his arrangements were very good.

Wait until the people from the Liujiacun construction team come back after the New Year.

They gave Feng Zhengming a lot of discounts for the decoration. It can be said that they hardly earned Feng Zhengming much in decoration and construction costs.

Therefore, Feng Zhengming must take care of lunch for their entire construction team.

Feng Zhengming also went to the train station to set up a stall at noon to sell meat.

It is impossible for him to come here every day at noon to deliver meals to the decoration construction workers.

Grandpa arranged for Wei Xiuling to help deliver meals, which was indeed a very good arrangement.

Feng Zhengming nodded and said to Wei Xiuling: "Sister Wei, just do as grandpa said. You may have to travel a little. Before starting the decoration, you are responsible for taking a look at the shop. When the decoration starts, you will deliver meals to them sooner or later. You Can you ride a tricycle? You ride a tricycle to bring them food from grandpa’s house.”

After Wei Xiuling heard Feng Zhengming's specific arrangements, she nodded and agreed: "Okay, leave those to me."

Xia Hui couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Xiao Chen and Sister Wei are both back, why don't you see Aunt Duan back?"

When Feng Zhengming heard what Xia Hui said, he also thought of Duan Sufen and wondered if Duan Sufen was entangled by her son Yue Rui when she didn't show up. Could it be that Yue Rui caused something else?

Because he didn't know the specific situation, Feng Zhengming could only say: "Maybe Aunt Duan has something going on at home. It doesn't matter. Anyway, the shop will be renovated next and we will not be open for business for the time being."

In the afternoon, Feng Zhengming led people in the shop to clean the big pot used for lunch.

And by the way, I packed up some dishes for the food stall in the evening.

As for the meat, Feng Zhengming really brought a big pot from his grandfather’s house.

The two big pots left at grandpa’s house are going to be sold at noon tomorrow.

When Feng Zhengming was busy in the shop, what he didn't expect was that Yan Jianxing and his senior brother actually came to the shop.

Seeing his senior brother and Yan Jianxing walking in together, Feng Zhengming had no choice but to put down what he was doing and greet them from the back kitchen.

"Eldest Brother, Brother Yan, why do you come here specially?"

Yan Jianxing smiled and said, "If we don't come, wouldn't you?"

Feng Zhengming pointed to the things in the kitchen and the shop and said: "Brother, you can see that my place has started to open for business. Although the shop is temporarily closed and has to wait for renovation, I still want to make money, so I want to open the shop at the train station." Let’s start working on the nearby meat stalls and the food stalls at night.”

Yan Jianxing could only give a thumbs up: "You are really awesome, I admire you."

Feng Zhengming said: "No, brother, I should be the one who admires you. Brother, you dare to use the name of master to start the Yan family restaurant. It really requires courage. The pressure behind this needs to be endured. Senior brother and I It’s all clear.”

Perhaps those who don't know better may feel that Yan Jianxing is borrowing his father's reputation to do business.

But Feng Zhengming and Li Huidong knew very well that the words Yan Jiacai put a huge pressure on both their fellow apprentices and Yan Jianxing.

Since you are using a signature dish, you must prepare the dish well.

Because even if there is a slight flaw, it is not your own face that will be lost, but the face of Master Yan.

Therefore, from the trial operation before the Chinese New Year, including during the Chinese New Year, Yan Jianxing has been constantly researching, constantly asking his father for advice, and cooperating with other people in the kitchen.

There are also very strict requirements for some services in Yanjia Restaurant.

Just to pass on his father's craftsmanship and not let others say that "Yan's cuisine" is just for fame and reputation.

Today at noon, we received favorable comments from customers on the first day of official business.

Yan Jianxing was able to temporarily let go of his worries.

"Yes, it's really a lot of pressure. I don't want to tarnish my father's reputation. I'm really worried about hearing people say, 'This is the Yan family's food.' I'm really afraid of hearing this, so I'm really nervous all the time."

Feng Zhengming encouraged: "Don't be nervous, brother, your craftsmanship is fine. As long as you manage the kitchen well, there will be no problem."

Yan Jianxing nodded: "Thank you Zhengming for reminding me, I will pay attention to the quality control of the dishes in the kitchen."

Li Huidong said: "Look at it this way, you can't go there at night?"

Feng Zhengming said apologetically: "I can't go. Brother, your restaurant is open. You should also understand that business is very busy, especially us chefs."

Yan Jianxing said: "I understand you. Since you have chosen to do something, you must do it well and stick to it."

Feng Zhengming said: "The shop is about to be renovated, and I am very short of money now. I have to do business, so I go to the train station to set up a stall to sell meat, and I also go to the food stalls at night to repair the renovation of my shop. money."

Yan Jianxing understood better: "Renovation is indeed a big sum of money. If you want to expand here, it will really cost a lot of money."

Feng Zhengming nodded: "Yes, so we have to work harder to make money."

Li Huidong sighed: "It's true, everyone is working so hard just to make more money."

Yan Jianxing said: "Well, Zhengming, if you have time, go to my place and have a look. You can also go to the kitchen and give my people some pointers to make the dishes better."

Feng Zhengming laughed: "Isn't it appropriate for me to go? Brother, you and Master are both here."

Yan Jianxing said: "Dad may go to a cooking school to join a job soon."

Feng Zhengming was a little surprised: "Master wants to go back?"

Yan Jianxing said: "I'm not going back, I'm going to work at a cooking school in Quancheng, the same school where Uncle Cui is."

Feng Zhengming suddenly said: "Oh, master, where are you going? That's good. This way, master and brother will be in Quancheng from now on, and it will be more convenient for us to move around."

Yan Jianxing nodded: "Yes, I will move around more in the future."

Feng Zhengming agreed: "Okay, I will go when I have time."

Yan Jianxing and Li Huidong didn't stay long. After wishing Feng Zhengming's food stall a prosperous new year, they left Feng's restaurant and went back together.

Feng Zhengming continued to lead the people to make final preparations for the opening of the food stall in the evening.
