The first thing I did was to find out

Chapter 299 Worthy of Being a Couple

March 3th is Han Youxin’s second birthday.

It’s embarrassing to say, but Han Youxin was obviously the real protagonist of this birthday party, the only birthday boy, but the protagonist’s presence has always been very low, so low that Qin Huai didn’t see the little birthday boy until his birthday.

Little fat boy and little birthday boy.

Han Youxin was well taken care of by Mr. and Mrs. Han. He was fair and tender, with arms as plump as lotus roots.

The weather in March was still a little chilly. When Qin Huai saw Han Youxin, the little fat boy was wrapped tightly in his mother's arms. He was wearing a thick brown bear-shaped cotton jacket and pointed at the lamp on the ceiling with his little hand and grinned.

It can be seen that Wang Jing has good arm strength.

A two-year-old child is already quite heavy, not to mention that Han Youxin is a little fat boy with arms as fat as lotus roots and he is wearing such thick clothes. However, Wang Jing can easily pick up the child with one hand and even use the other hand to hold a mobile phone and send messages. You can tell at a glance that she has practiced this skill.

"Master Qin, I'm sorry to call you out at this time. I hope I didn't delay your making snacks?" Wang Jing had an apologetic smile on her face. She patted her son in her arms, signaling Han Youxin to be quiet and stop crying.

"No delay." Qin Huai said.

There really is no delay. It is only 9 o'clock in the morning. Qin Huai was worried that he and Zang Liang would not be able to handle it, so he arrived at the kitchen at 5 o'clock this morning.

However, Qin Huai was not the first one to arrive. Zang Mu arrived at around 4 o'clock, and Tong Deyan arrived a little later around 7 o'clock. Not to mention the other helpers, most of them arrived before 6 o'clock.

For banquets, it's always a good idea for the kitchen staff to arrive early. It's better to have them idle than to be too busy at the last minute.

We all signed a contract, and we have to pay compensation if there is any problem.

The result of arriving early was that Qin Huai and Zang Liang quickly finished the work they were supposed to do. The first batch of tasting three-diced buns, fermented glutinous rice steamed buns and four-happiness dumplings were all out of the pot. Even Qin Huai, Zang Liang, Zang Mu and Tong Deyan each had a bowl of longevity noodles. If Qin Huai hadn't been worried about not having enough broth, he would have eaten a few more bowls.

When I was at Huang Ji, there was plenty of longevity noodles. As long as Qin Huai wanted to eat it, there would be broth to cook noodles anytime and anywhere.

It was different after returning to Yunzhong Canteen. There were no such high-end cooking talents in Yunzhong Canteen.

50 points of longevity noodles are provided by the noodles, and 50 points are provided by the soup.

Longevity noodles cooked with ordinary chicken soup are just very ordinary chicken soup noodles. Only the longevity noodles simmered with broth are the golden B-grade or even B+-grade longevity noodles.

The longevity noodles cooked with Zang Mu Diao's broth are of B+ grade. Qin Huai himself hasn't eaten B+ grade longevity noodles for a long time. When he first tasted it, he wanted to lick the bowl.

"Mr. Wang, do you have any additional requests?" Qin Huai asked.

Chen Gong told Qin Huai that Wang Jing and Han Guishan were a husband and wife team who started from scratch. In the past few years, Wang Jing was also a senior executive of the company. In the past two years, she has become financially independent and had a child, so she retired completely and is no longer involved in company affairs. There is nothing wrong with calling him President Wang.

"It's not a request. Master Tong just told my husband Han yesterday that the menu has changed. The sweet soup has been replaced with longevity noodles. I think that's great. I just want to ask if the longevity noodles use ingredients that children can't eat. Today is Youxin's birthday, and he will have to try a few bites of the longevity noodles at the banquet. The child doesn't have any allergies, I'm just worried that there are some things that the child can't eat right now."

While Wang Jing was talking, Han Youxin started sucking his fingers. Wang Jing patted Han Youxin's little hands twice, and Han Youxin had to reluctantly take his fingers out of his mouth.

Qin Huai felt relieved when he heard that this was what Wang Jing was worried about. Tong Deyan, an experienced chef, chatted with Qin Huai on WeChat for more than 20 minutes last night. The topic of the conversation was always the ingredients needed for longevity noodles. He confirmed it again and again to prevent the food from containing any food taboos for the guests.

"You don't need to worry about this. Chef Tong has already confirmed it last night. There is no problem with the ingredients. The children can eat it." Qin Huai explained with a smile, "Boss Han also specifically instructed that a small bowl of longevity noodles should be specially prepared for Han Youxin. The noodles should be thin and the portion should be small, but the length should be the same as ordinary longevity noodles."

Wang Jing was relieved then and gave a look to the nanny not far away. The nanny immediately walked forward and took Han Youxin from Wang Jing's arms.

"That's great. Master Qin, are you busy now? I just heard from Chen Gong that your kitchen staff are eating noodles."

Qin Huai:?
"No… not busy."

Wang Jing's smile became more sincere. "That's great. I'm trying to lose weight recently so I don't eat carbohydrates at night. Last night I asked Lao Han to leave me some fermented glutinous rice steamed buns, three-diced buns, and four-happiness dumplings. But he ate them all and only left me one fermented glutinous rice steamed bun. After eating that steamed bun this morning, I couldn't eat any other breakfast. Do you have any noodles in the kitchen? Give me a bowl."

Qin Huai:......

Mr. Wang, you and Mr. Han are truly a couple who started from scratch and worked hard together!

"Yes." Qin Huai said, "If you don't mind, the first batch is the trial-made three-piece buns, fermented glutinous rice steamed buns, and four-happiness dumplings. The four-happiness dumplings are raw and need to be cooked, the fermented glutinous rice steamed buns may be a little cold, and the three-piece buns... it seems that there are still a few raw doughs, you may have to wait a few minutes for me to steam them for you."

Zang Liang had just finished eating the steamed three-piece buns.

Wang Jing's eyes lit up when she heard this, but she still asked, "Do you have noodles?"

"You need to wait a little longer for the noodles, and the hand-kneaded noodles need to be made fresh."

Wang Jing's smile became even more satisfied. "No hurry. It's a good opportunity to try the taste of the three-diced buns and four-happiness dumplings. Alas, eating is burdensome for people who are on a diet. I won't dare to eat these carbohydrates at the banquet later."

Qinhuai: 6
You don't dare to eat at the banquet, but you dare to eat in the kitchen, right? Mr. Wang knows how to lose weight.

"Then may I ask, Mr. Wang, would you like to eat noodles?"

"Eat all. My husband Han will be here soon. He can eat what I can't finish."

Qin Huai understood immediately: "Okay, I'll cook more."

Wang Jing nodded with satisfaction, thinking that Chen Gong had not lied to him. This Master Qin was a wonderful person who could understand the underlying meaning of other people's words.

Ten minutes later, Wang Jing, wearing an LV skirt, a Burberry trench coat, a Gucci scarf, Valentino shoes, a Cartier bracelet, a Tiffany necklace, and an Hermès bag, squatted at the kitchen door very skillfully, with one foot in front and one foot behind, and half of her body leaning forward so that she could easily see the person at the kitchen door.

Hold the noodles with one hand and the chopsticks with the other, steadily, and inhale like a storm.

Qin Huai squatted beside her, blending in with the group, and ate another bowl of longevity noodles.

Zang Mu, who was preparing food, looked at the scene in front of him with great confusion. He gave Tong Deyan a look that asked, "Did you really go to remind Qin Huai yesterday?" But all he got was Tong Deyan closing his eyes in despair.

Zang Liang asked Zang Mu eagerly: "Master, can I..."

"Don't even think about it!"

At the door of the kitchen, Wang Jing finished a bowl of noodles with great relish, then stood up to drink the soup. She also shared her experience with Qin Huai: "You can squat while eating, but you must stand up when drinking the soup at the end, otherwise the soup won't flow down smoothly."

"Before I met Lao Han, I worked as a waiter in a state-owned restaurant. At that time, the kitchens in state-owned restaurants were not as big as those in today's restaurants, but the layouts were similar. Sometimes we secretly cooked for ourselves. We couldn't eat outside, but we couldn't go into the kitchen to delay the chefs' cooking. The most important thing was that our clothes were dirty, and we were worried about dirtying the kitchen, so we squatted at the door to eat."

"This position and this action are particularly good. I have learned this from squatting for several years. People squatting here can see what is happening outside. If someone comes, they can get up immediately, put down the bowl and go out. With the angle of the door, it is difficult for people outside to notice this place and you won't be seen eating secretly inside. It is very safe."

"That's true." Qin Huai had an expression of being willing to learn. "It's very practical. When I give my sister some special treatment in the future, I can ask her to try to find the angle as well."

"But my community cafeteria has transparent glass, and people from outside can see into the kitchen through the window. Is this angle..."

"It can be stuck in a blind spot." Wang Jing said with experience, "Just follow this method and you will definitely find the blind spot."

"Thank you, Mr. Wang." "It's just a small matter."

After finishing the noodle soup, Wang Jing changed from a waitress in a state-owned restaurant to a retired Mr. Wang. She straightened her clothes, calmly walked to the kitchen door, played with her son, and then handed over her position to Han Guishan.

"Take it easy when eating, so you don't lose your appetite at lunch," Wang Jing reminded.

"I know." Han Guishan nodded, and then began to inhale violently.

Qin Huai smiled at Chen Gong in a friendly manner: "Assistant Chen, would you like a bowl of noodles?"

Chen Gong first glanced at Han Guishan, and seeing that his boss was eating heartily, he thought for two seconds and nodded.

Seeing that Han Guishan and Chen Gong had already eaten, Qin Huai returned to the kitchen counter to continue making snacks. It was true that he had come early and had a lot of free time, but today was a birthday party and a day to work, so Qin Huai couldn't pull Chen Gong aside to ask questions and gossip like he did yesterday.

As for why I was squatting at the door with Wang Jing to eat noodles just now...

Master Qin, who was not full, felt that he would enjoy his meal more if he had a bowl of Wang Zong.

Seeing that Qin Huai had returned to work, Zang Liang also went back to work.

Zang Liang worked very efficiently and had already cut all the ingredients that needed to be cut. Now he was cutting ingredients that exceeded the quantity for the birthday party.

There's nothing wrong with making more, Mr. Han can eat it.

Qin Huai was mixing the stuffing for the four-happiness dumplings. With his current master-level skills, not to mention chatting while mixing the stuffing, even if he mixed the stuffing and chatted while closing his eyes, there would be no problem with the stuffing.

"Zang Liang, who do you think would work wholeheartedly for the company?" Qin Huai asked.

Zang Liang was chopping meat, not daring to be distracted. He stared at the meat and thought half a beat slower than usual. After thinking for a while, he said, "The salary is high?"

"When I first started learning cooking from my master, I was an apprentice with no salary. At that time, I envied the dishwashers in the kitchen. Dishwashers made more than 2000 yuan a month. At that time, I felt that 2000 yuan a month was not enough to spend. If I was given 2000 yuan a month, I would work in the kitchen until I died!"

"Then let me ask it another way. Suppose there are spirits in this world, and they will change their life direction and habits because of obsession. Then what kind of obsession will make the spirit follow the boss wholeheartedly and work hard until death?"

Faced with Qin Huai's very strange question, Zang Liang accepted it well. He was a good friend of Tan Weian, and Tan Weian told Zang Liang that Qin Huai had a habit of imagining that he had a game system that issued tasks to rate dishes.

After seeing Qinhuai's stuffing skills, Zang Liang felt that any flaws in Qinhuai's cooking were acceptable.

Guli from Zhiweiju has a habit of working 14 hours a day.

It would be unfair for Qin Huai to have such cooking skills at his age, unless he is mentally ill.

Zang Liang began to think seriously.

Actually, Qin Huai discussed this issue in a video call in the loving family group last night.

After chatting for a day yesterday, Qin Huai could basically conclude that Chen Gong's obsession was related to work, and he might want to be a good employee or something like that.

The obsessions of spirits are strange and varied, and no matter what kind of obsession they have, it is not strange. Chen Gong is currently awakening, which means that he has now encountered an opportunity to awaken. According to his performance, this opportunity to awaken is probably Han Guishan.

These were the results Qin Huai had already analyzed yesterday afternoon. After a night of discussion, he only came to these conclusions.

Luo Jun, the top analyst of goblins, suffered a setback when faced with Chen Gong, a pervert who loves work and is obsessed with work. He was unable to analyze the situation and expressed neither understanding nor respect.

Chen Huihong guessed that Chen Gong might be short of money. His obsession might not be related to work but might be related to money. Han Guishan gave him an annual salary of 700 million yuan so Chen Gong was completely devoted to him.

Qu Jing felt that Chen Gong's devotion had little to do with money, but was mainly due to Han Guishan. Chen Gong's obsession might be a person, and Han Guishan happened to be very similar to the person he was obsessed with.

Qin Huai felt that their guesses were unreliable, and planned to find a pure human who was not a monster to analyze the situation rationally.

Zang Liang thought for a long time.

"That may be because... you think the boss is a very nice person?"

"In fact, I didn't want to learn cooking when I was young. My family was poor at that time. My parents thought I had talent in this area. My cousin happened to be a chef. My parents thought that being a chef could make money, so I followed my master to learn cooking since I was young."

"At that time, I cried and made a fuss every day. I didn't want to live in my master's house and wanted to go home. I didn't want to practice cutting vegetables and wanted to watch TV. I used every possible means, including throwing tantrums and rolling around."

"My master couldn't send me back. My parents lied to me that being a chef was hard when I was little, but I would make a lot of money when I grew up. I could go wherever I wanted to play and eat whatever I wanted. I could eat a candy and throw it away. I could drink a bottle of Coke and pour it out."

“I was deceived again.”

"When I first started learning cooking, I just wanted to learn quickly and make money. At that time, I envied the dishwashers, the washers, the choppers, and the waiters. I thought they all had salaries and were not as tired as I was. It was so cool."

"But after a while, I stopped being envious because I have an exceptionally good master. It's their turn to be envious of me."

"Put myself in your shoes. If there is any reason why I would be so devoted to my boss or master until my death, it is probably not because of money. Of course, it would be better if I had a lot of money, but if it is a lot, that is another matter. But I still think that people are very important. First of all, he must be someone worthy of me doing this for."

Qin Huai instantly looked at Zang Liang with new eyes. Although he was just a person with connections, he was actually a person with connections who had ideas, aspirations, and depth.

Qin Huai felt that the angle provided by Zang Liang was very good and was most like an answer.

The money must be in place and the people must be good.

If this is the case, the breakthrough to the Chen Gong side quest may lie in Han Guishan.

To conquer other monsters, you need to build good relationships with them; to conquer Chen Gong, you need to build good relationships with his boss.

"Are you tired?" Qin Huai asked.

"Not tired. The amount of food I prepared today is quite small, less than 1/3 of what I usually prepare. I found that your white cases are much more enjoyable than our red cases. Your preparation of food is not complicated at all, and the quantity is large."

Qin Huai smiled and said, "Do you mind doing a little more work?"

Zang Liang: Isn’t he working?

"I plan to make an extra 30 kilograms of three-piece buns and 50 kilograms of four-happiness dumplings. Please take some time to prepare them. I will cook longevity noodles for you later."

"If there's enough broth, I'll make you a pot!"

"30 kilograms of ingredients for three-piece buns and 50 kilograms of four-happiness dumplings, right? Don't worry, I'll take care of it!"
