Love comes after eating halberds

Raising his hand to pat his head, Hoshino Kong sighed softly, his eyes wandering around, hoping that the person coming was an easy guy to deal with, otherwise it would be a bit big.

"Excuse me...it's really Hoshino-kun! That's great, I'm actually in the same group as Hoshino-kun!"

Seeing the person in front of him turn around, a familiar face appeared in front of him. There was strong surprise in Tian Sohui's voice, and he dragged the box and trotted to Ai Liaoqi's side.

"It's you. It scares me to death. I'm still wondering if the people traveling with me will be difficult to get along with, but if it's Xiao Hui, I'll be relieved."

Hoshino Sora also showed a surprised expression. If the target was Tadokoroe, he felt that there would be no big problem and he should be able to have a very happy time during this period of field training.

When he was in a good mood, Hoshino Sora came to Tazoe's side and reached out to help her carry her luggage. However, he touched his hand. At the moment of contact, the other party hid as if he was electrocuted.

"I'll get it for you."

"No, I can do this. And where is your luggage, Hoshino-kun?"

"Me? They're all here."

He pointed at the bag he was carrying behind him. He always followed the principle of traveling light and did not bring anything useless, so his luggage was much less than that of ordinary people.

"Is this all you bring?"

There was a little surprise in Tazoe's eyes. She looked at Hoshino Sora's extremely small luggage and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Well, that's enough. The training location this time is "Mushiguya" in downtown Tokyo. I wonder what kind of store it is? "

I raised my hands behind my head and looked at the blue sky. I have to say that today is a really good weather. The sky is clear and the wind is gentle. I hope the training store manager can deal with it easier now.

----------

At noon, the two people taking the Shinkansen arrived at the address stated on the notice.

"Is it here?"

"It feels...a little shabby, and it doesn't seem like there are many customers."

Frowning slightly, he looked at the restaurant in front of him, which had a small area and shabby decoration. Hoshino Sora took out the list and repeatedly compared the locations. Finally, he regretfully discovered that the location of the field training was here.

"It's obviously located in the center of a city where people gather, why is there not a single customer?"

Tadokoro had a puzzled expression. Although it looked quite shabby outside, it was still in a downtown area and in the middle of a meal, so it shouldn't be as quiet as it is now.

"There are many reasons for the lack of customers, including vicious business competition, unpalatable food, poor environment, bad attitudes of store managers and clerks, etc... I wonder what kind of store this is?"

"Are you students sent here by Yueyue?"

Just as the two were having a heated discussion at the door, a burly man suddenly opened the store door after hearing the sound, looked at the logos and school uniforms on the chests of the two, and said.

"Yes, please take care of me!"

Looking at the big man with a sinister face, Tadokoro suddenly became nervous. She couldn't help but grab Hoshino Sora's sleeves and bowed deeply as she spoke.

"Oh, then you guys come in first. My name is Tetsuo Chongmu. Are you hungry? Come into the store and see what I want to order. I'll take it as a welcome treat for you."

Looking at the scared Tadokoro, the big man didn't say anything, but stepped aside and asked the two of them to go in. Hoshino Sora didn't hesitate, holding the girl's trembling hand and went in.

Don't worry, everything is mine.

Although she didn't speak, the determination in Hoshino Sora's eyes still reassured Tadokoro, and the warmth from her palms made her heart beat faster.

He raised his head and looked around the room. Seriously, although this store looked shabby and small from the outside, it was neatly kept and the interior space was quite large.

The overall layout is that the chef works outside and cooks on-site according to the customer's ordering needs. There is no so-called back kitchen and there are no waiters in the store except the boss.

Yes, there are not even customers, so why do we need so many waiters?

Hoshino Sora complained in his heart, and dragged Taguo E to the cooking table, wanting to see the dishes in this restaurant.

"this is menu."

The boss said and placed the menu in front of the two of them. The moment he saw the menu, Hoshino Sora suddenly understood why this store was open in a downtown area but there was no one there.

"So many...bugs."

An expression of disgust appeared on his face inadvertently, but he quickly returned to normal out of politeness. Looking at the various dishes made with insects on the menu, Tadokoro immediately understood the seriousness of the situation.

If you want to sell these insect dishes, you need not only superb cooking skills, but also excellent speaking skills. After all, not everyone can accept this type of food.

"Our store specializes in various insect dishes. Among them, the fried silkworm chrysalises and bamboo shoot jelly are the most acceptable. I feel like you may not be able to accept the others."

"Then let's have a plate of fried silkworm chrysalises, but doesn't it matter? If we have guests later..."

"Don't worry. As you can see, there have been no customers in this store for a long time. I just wanted to give it a try, so I applied for the internship dispatch to Yuanyue."

Hearing Hoshino Sora's question, a wry smile appeared on the store manager's face. Since the nearby demolition and the old residential buildings turned into new communities and shopping malls, his store has become deserted.

Although people would come in to ask from time to time, those customers ran away as soon as they saw the menu and refused to stop no matter how he called.

There are also some people who are willing to try, but after seeing his cooking, they all excuse themselves to go to the toilet and run away. If there is no more business, he will have to consider closing down.

"Have you not considered changing to some normal store dishes? Your store's traffic is not bad, and there are residential buildings nearby. Logically speaking, the business shouldn't be so bad."

"I'm only good at insect cooking, and I'm not proficient in other things. I'm far from the level to open a store. Naturally, I can't add a menu and ruin the sign."

"Then we have to find a way to sell these insect dishes."

Looking at the golden fried silkworm chrysalises in front of me, although I felt a little uncomfortable because I knew they were insects, the smell was still very fragrant, so I gritted my teeth and took a piece into my mouth.

It may be due to psychological effects. Hoshino Sora felt that this taste was very strange, with a sense of reality and illusion. The salt and pepper sprinkled on the surface was very fragrant.

What is certain is that this dish is not unpalatable. On the contrary, it is very delicious and is extra crispy after deep-frying.

As long as you can overcome the psychological obstacle.

"Aren't you going to eat?"

"I...I'm not very hungry yet."

With an awkward smile on her face, Tadokoro slightly scratched the ground with her toes. She was currently looking at the living, squirming silkworm chrysalis in front of her on the cooking table. Her psychological pressure reached the extreme.

"Okay, close your eyes for a moment. There seems to be something next to your eyes."

"Ok?"

Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, although Tadokoro was confused, she still closed her eyes obediently.

Suddenly, she felt her mouth being opened, and then a foreign object was thrown in. A warm hand moved on her chin, and a wonderful taste burst out in her mouth.

"As a chef, you can't be afraid of cooking. If you want to help this restaurant get out of trouble, you must start by tasting the food here."

Looking at Tadokoro with a stunned expression after opening his eyes, Hoshino Sora said softly that this assessment is to leave significant results in the internship place, and helping this store to regain its vitality is the test given to them by Totsuki.

If even the staff are afraid of the food in this restaurant, how can they make customers feel safe eating? !

"Well..."

Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, Tazoe subtly puffed up her face and turned her head to the side without speaking. Of course she knew this, but wasn't it a bit unacceptable?

However, there is no problem with the taste.

"Boss, are you willing to accept the reform? As long as the food served is still insect food."

The assessment time for field training is one week. If you want to achieve results within this period, attracting customers to visit is the most important thing. You have to start tomorrow, no, tonight!

"Have you thought of a solution? I am willing to accept reforms without changing the characteristics of the cuisine."

Tetsuo Mushigi's expression was slightly startled. Should he be said to be a student of Totsuki?It took less than an hour to come up with a way to get his store out of trouble.

Unlike his ferocious appearance, Tetsuo Chomu is a very simple and honest man because he has loved catching insects since he was a child and cooking them in various ways after catching them.

Over time, he became an expert in cooking insect dishes.

"first..."

In the room, Hoshino Sora stretched out his finger and started talking nonstop.

If you want to retain the characteristics without scaring away customers, the best way is...

Play word games!

----------

"Insect Gakuya, welcome to your arrival."

Holding a freshly printed leaflet in her hand, she handed one over when someone came. Tadokoro was so busy that she was sweating profusely, and Hoshino Sora was not idle during the process.

While rewriting the recipe names, you should also study how to make the dishes more appetizing. But before that, you must do one thing, which is to cover the kitchen with a cloth.

After doing all this, Hoshino Sora came to the door of the shop and recruited customers together with Tadokoro. However, because the shop was shabby and small, not many people paid attention at all.

Even if they shout very hard.

Time passes slowly, the golden color of the sky gradually fades, the surrounding street lights gradually light up, and there are many more pedestrians than during the day. The air is filled with the aroma of various food stalls, and the prosperity of the night market is perfectly revealed at this moment.

"Make a pot of golden crispy cake right now. It will be dinner time soon. It depends on whether you can make it happen this time."

He rushed into the kitchen anxiously and shouted to Tetsuo Midsuki inside. Hoshino Sora's expression was serious. It doesn't matter what happened before. The key is now. Now is the best time to attract customers!

"it is good!"

Because he was infected by Hoshino Sora's mobility and understood that the other party really wanted to help him and his shop, Tetsuo Komugi now listened to him very much.

During the conversation, Tetsuo Chomu quickly fried the processed silkworm chrysalis in cold water, then took it out of the pot, poured in cold water, drained the water, added egg liquid, wrapped it in bread crumbs, and fried it again.

There is only one rule in the world of gourmet food, and that is that delicious food conquers all!As long as you can make delicious food, it doesn't matter even if you know the raw materials are bugs.

Of course, this does not mean that you can tell your guests from the beginning: "I am made of insects. Don't worry, it tastes good. Just overcome your psychological fear."

It's impossible for anyone to care about you.

"Don't miss it when you pass by, the wonderful Golden Pot Crispy! Get a [-]% discount when you enter the store today, and you can try it for free at the door. If you don't like it, you don't have to pay."

A rich aroma wafted in the kitchen. Hoshino Sora came to the door with a plate of golden hot pot crisps. However, the aroma of the cooking was still strong in the kitchen, but it became dull when placed in the larger environment.

"Can I take the spoon?"

Hoshino Sora discovered this problem as soon as the food was brought out. Such food would never attract customers. After thinking about it, he took the plate to the kitchen and asked Tetsuo Usuki.

"Please."

After swallowing his saliva, Tetsuo Komugi immediately gave up his position when he heard that Sora Hoshino was about to take charge. The opponent was a student from Totsuki Academy, a star school. In terms of cooking skills, he couldn't keep up with dozens of others.

After all, he is a wild man...

Let’s talk about Sora Hoshino.

Standing in front of the cooking table, he did not choose to act immediately. Instead, he held his chin and looked at the things on the stove and thought about it repeatedly. Finally, he even took out the encyclopedia of recipes.

After 10 minutes of repeated experiments, going through dozens of operating procedures in his mind, and simply matching them with existing seasonings in the kitchen, Hoshino Sora took action.

Handle the live silkworm chrysalis vigorously, blanch it in a pot under cold water, add cooking wine, boil for a few minutes, pour it into ice water to cool down, drain the water, sprinkle with salt and corn starch, and fry it in the pot.

Slowly fry in cold oil until golden brown, then coat with a layer of cornstarch and egg white mixture, fry again until golden and crispy.

Next...

Quickly prepare various chili peppers, stir-fry the Sichuan peppercorns, and cook them in the style of Sichuan cuisine. In order to maximize the flavor, Hoshino Sora works very carefully.

"It has been slightly improved, you can try the taste."

Putting the freshly cooked Golden Pot Crisp on the table, Sora Hoshino made a gesture of invitation to Tetsuo Utsugi. If he wanted to introduce a new dish, the first thing he had to do was to get the approval of the chef.

Turning his head, he found admiration on the other person's face. It was hard to imagine that such an expression would appear on a middle-aged man with a fleshy face and a huge body.

"Spicy, crispy and tender, with an endless aftertaste in your mouth. Is this the strength of Totsuki's students?"

Picking up a piece of silkworm chrysalis with his chopsticks, he put it into his mouth and savored it carefully. Tetsuo Chongmu's eyes suddenly widened, and he couldn't stop passing the chopsticks to the plate, shouting while eating.

"This dish is based on your cooking and adds some chili peppers. It has a relatively strong taste. I have written down the specific recipe here. If you think the taste is suitable, you can modify the dish appropriately."

Hoshino Sora said without waiting for a reply, he handed the recipe he had just written to Tetsuo Komugi, then came to the door with the remaining golden pot crispy and shouted loudly.

This time, it didn’t take long for the rich fragrance to attract customers.

"It smells so good, can I try this?"

"Please."

Handing over the chopsticks and plate, Hoshino Sora had a gentle smile on his face, and his handsome appearance made the woman in front of her inquire a little faster. She had been paying attention to this boy for a long time.

"What is this made of?"

Looking at the golden and crispy oval particles in front of them, the golden pot crispy after being stir-fried exudes a rich spicy aroma, the visitor couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Commercial secret, you will know it after you taste it. You will never be disappointed."

Facing the woman's inquiry, Hoshino Sora smiled mysteriously.

"It's so bad. You're betraying someone."
