The Courtyard House: He Yuzhu, Who Defied Fate

It's important to know that the grading process hasn't even started yet; the industry grading process only began five or six years ago.

It's only May 1st now, and everyone's rank is still based on the old system.

Moreover, there are no standards. Basically, it's the apprentice's salary, the regular employee's salary, and then it increases a little bit every year according to seniority.

Of course, the salary for highly skilled workers is determined by the employer.

After all, most factories and businesses are privately owned nowadays, and wages are determined according to the boss's rules.

Salaries and benefits vary across different industries.

Take Master Tian for example, his monthly salary is two million.

If it were lower than this, it would have been poached by someone else long ago.

However, this two million includes not only salary but also annual raises for those who have worked here for so many years.

However, He Yuzhu wouldn't have two million, but it's estimated to be at least one million four or five hundred thousand.

After all, He Yuzhu is a master, even though he is young. Giving him too little would be an insult to a master.

In that case, you'll offend the entire culinary world.

If we knew the wages were still at the current level, I doubt any cook would be working here.

Manager Gu was very excited. If his Hongbinlou restaurant had another master chef, the business would definitely be better than it is now.

So Manager Gu asked anxiously:

"By the way, where's the pillar?"

Tian Zehua said with a smile:

"If you ask me, Zhu Zi is indeed a remarkable kid. But I've noticed that my cooking skills have been improving slowly these past few days."

So I'm planning to go to the bookstore to buy some books on medicine, intending to prepare medicinal cuisine!

Upon hearing Tian Zehua's words, Manager Gu was extremely excited:

"Master Tian, ​​do you think Zhu Zi can develop medicinal cuisine?"

Tian Zehua said:

"If it were someone else, I would definitely say it's doubtful, but with Zhu Zi, I can only say that he definitely can. You know how much Zhu Zi has improved. When he first came, he only had a little bit of basic skills."

This is inseparable from the fact that his father and Da Ke were both cooks, but you also know He Daqing.

This person's cooking skills are, to put it mildly, just so-so, but to say they're bad is that they can handle all sorts of delicacies.

After all, we're in the capital city, not by the sea, so when it comes to dealing with these things, he's basically unique to Scorpion Poop.

As for his other skills, they were just so-so.

So the pillar has some foundation, but not much, but in less than a year.

You've seen his progress; it's been incredibly rapid.

I told him how to advance, and he figured it out on his own. Now his cooking skills are just as good as mine.

I have to admit, Zhu Zi's talent is indeed much better than mine.

As you've seen, Zhu Zi is researching medicinal cuisine to improve his cooking skills, so there's definitely no problem with that!

Manager Gu was also very excited, because medicinal cuisine is a high-end product.

High costs, but even higher profits.

What Tian Zehua and Manager Gu didn't know was that after He Yuzhu's upgrade, the category of medicinal cuisine was added. He Yuzhu now knows how to make medicinal cuisine, but he knows that if he had known it from the start...

That wouldn't make sense, so He Yuzhu went to learn medicine. After studying for a while, he would be able to fully develop his medicinal cuisine.

There won't be any surprises then, since I'm a genius and everyone can accept that.

Manager Gu said excitedly...

Chapter Thirty-Six: Manager Gu's Attempt to Win Him Over

We'll assess Lampstick when he gets back. If he passes the test, he'll also be a head chef at Hongbinlou Restaurant.

In fact, Tian Zehua was also happy for He Yuzhu. After spending the past few months together, Tian Zehua knew He Yuzhu's abilities.

Knowing He Yuzhu's character even better, He Yuzhu should not think that he is a master chef.

But just like an apprentice, he still chops and prepares ingredients, and He Yuzhu even provides guidance when the apprentices ask him questions.

He was not as arrogant or conceited as other geniuses; instead, he was extremely humble.

Tian Zehua asked He Yuzhu this question, and He Yuzhu said:

"Everyone has their own strengths, and we shouldn't look down on someone just because they are an apprentice."

Everyone has something worth learning from.

Moreover, He Yuzhu was very respectful and filial to himself and his lover Yu Hui.

No matter what good things come my way, I will never forget myself and my loved ones.

Since neither of her two children were around, He Yuzhu was almost like her own child in Tian Zehua's eyes.

This is also the main reason why Tian Zehua spared no effort in helping He Yuzhu.

If it were Yi Zhonghai, he would wish that He Yuzhu's salary would never increase, but Tian Zehua is the exact opposite.

The better He Yuzhu did, the happier Tian Zehua was, which was why He Yuzhu was willing to befriend Tian Zehua.

Soon, He Yuzhu bought several medical books.

When He Yuzhu returned, he saw Manager Gu standing at the door. Upon seeing He Yuzhu, Manager Gu smiled and said:

"Zhu Zi, you're back? That's not very nice of you!"

He Yuzhu looked at Manager Gu, then asked curiously:

"Manager Gu, I don't understand what you're saying. What do you mean I'm not being fair?"

I didn't do anything, did I?"

Manager Gu said to He Yuzhu:

"Zhu Zi, your skills have reached the master level, why didn't you tell me? If your master, Master Tian, ​​hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known until now!"

He Yuzhu scratched his head:

"Hehe, I'm just young, and besides, there's still so much I don't know to learn."

and so……

When Manager Gu heard He Yuzhu say this, he was surprised that He Yuzhu, who had reached the master level, was still so humble. He then said to He Yuzhu:

“Zhu Zi, I believe in your master, and I believe in you, but that’s just how Hongbinlou is.”

We need to demonstrate convincing skills, but we don't have many customers right now.

"Let's go to the cafeteria. You cook a few dishes for everyone to try, and then I'll give you a raise!"

He Yuzhu nodded:

"Alright, in that case, I'll leave it to Manager Gu!"

If He Yuzhu were to become a master chef, that would be a good thing for Manager Gu.

So Manager Gu said to He Yuzhu:

"This is what I should do, there's no trouble at all!"

He Yuzhu nodded:

"Okay, shall we go now?"

Manager Gu nodded:

"Okay, let's go now!"

Then he took He Yuzhu back to the kitchen, where He Yuzhu prepared several Sichuan dishes for everyone to taste.

After finishing his meal, Manager Gu was utterly shocked:

"That's right, he seems to be almost as good as Master Tian!"

Manager Gu was actually quite shocked. Although he said that, he had to admit that He Yuzhu's cooking skills had definitely surpassed Tian Zehua's.

He only said that to save face for Tian Zehua, since He Yuzhu is Tian Zehua's apprentice.

If Tian Zehua is angered, then when Tian Zehua goes to the capital, he will take He Yuzhu with him, and He Yuzhu will definitely follow.

In that case, I would have lost two master chefs.

He Yuzhu said modestly:

"No, no, I'm far from being as good as my master."

I will continue to study hard!

After everyone else finished eating, they were all shocked, never expecting He Yuzhu to be so amazing.

Manager Gu was utterly shocked to see that the dish had actually been prepared this way.
