From selling box lunches to becoming a famous Chinese chef

Chapter 7 The craftsmanship is impressive
  The first person to exclaim was the guest invited by deputy director Fang Jian today.

Lin Jiacheng naturally noticed this when he saw that the other party was arranged to sit in the first place in the middle.

Now hearing such an exclamation from the other party, Lin Jiacheng's hanging heart suddenly settled.

Fang Jian exclaimed when he heard that he had invited guests.

He quickly used his spoon to scoop up the diced chicken and walnut kernels that were put into the bowl, and ate both items in one bite.

Before he even started chewing, the first thing he felt was the taste of the soup coating the diced chicken and walnut kernels, which already made Fang Jian feel that this dish was indeed the right one.

Then chew slowly in your mouth.

The walnut kernels are crispy.

The diced chicken is smooth and tender.

There is also the salty aroma of the sauce coating it.

Fang Jian ate the food in his mouth, then picked up the wine glass and took a gentle sip of the wine.

"Tsk, okay, it is indeed a good dish."

After admiring, Fang Jian raised his head and looked at Lin Jiacheng and said: "Old Lin, I am convinced today just for this plate of "Chicken with Sauce Sauce". The one who can make this dish of "Chicken with Sauce Sauce" must be from Yanxilou. master."

Lin Jiacheng was instantly proud and proud, feeling like he could straighten his waist.

"Factory Director Fang, you just need to be satisfied with the food. We are responsible for the canteen and the small kitchen receptionists in the factory. If you don't have this skill, you will be embarrassed to do it, no."

The first guest to praise asked: "Is your chef really the former chef of Yanxilou?"

Lin Jiacheng said quickly: "To tell you the truth, the chef is my brother-in-law. Zhenger came from Yanxi Tower. He used to learn cooking from Master Yan of Yanxi Tower, and he was also Master Yan's eldest disciple."

The guest nodded: "No wonder, I just said that this "Chicken with Sauce Sauce" tastes almost exactly like the one I had at Yanxi Restaurant. Only Master Yan's apprentice can produce such a similar effect."

Fang Jian immediately said: "Old Lin, when I come over to receive guests from now on, you must let your brother-in-law cook it for me. You can't let those little cooks in your back kitchen interfere anymore."

Lin Jiacheng naturally agreed: "Don't worry, Factory Director Fang. If you come and tell me in advance, I promise to let my brother-in-law do it himself and will never let his two apprentices cook for you again."

Tonight's invited guest asked again: "May I ask, can I meet your chef?"

Lin Jiacheng looked at the other party with a suspicious look on his face. He didn't quite understand why the other party wanted to see Li Huidong?

Seeing that Lin Jiacheng did not agree, the guest still had a puzzled look on his face.

He quickly explained: "Oh, I don't mean any harm, I just want to see the chef. If it's inconvenient, forget it."

Before Lin Jiacheng could speak, Fang Jian said in a comprehensive manner: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu, if you want to see the chef, it's just a matter of one sentence. Since you have spoken, I will definitely let you see him."

After giving his promise, Fang Jian said to Lin Jiacheng: "Old Lin, go and ask your brother-in-law to come out and meet him."

Seeing this situation, Lin Jiacheng could only agree: "Okay, Mr. Liu and Factory Director Fang, please wait a moment."

Coming out of the private room, Lin Jiacheng was still a little embarrassed.

Because that "Chicken with Soy Sauce" wasn't made by my brother-in-law?
  As Lin Jiacheng walked to the kitchen, he was thinking in his mind that he could not let his brother-in-law spill the beans no matter what.

Arriving at the kitchen, Lin Jiacheng immediately shouted: "Huidong, have you finished cooking? Just in time, you come with me. Deputy Factory Director Fang and his guest tonight, Mr. Liu, want to meet you."

Li Huidong has been with his master since he was an apprentice. Now that he is nearly forty, he almost always works in the kitchen and rarely participates in things like greeting guests.

Now I heard from my brother-in-law that he was asked to meet the deputy factory director and the guests invited tonight.

Li Huidong immediately said: "Brother-in-law, I'm not very good at talking, so I won't go, right?" Lin Jiacheng said: "How can we do it if you don't go? The deputy director and Mr. Liu have both said that they want to see you by name. , I told them that you are from Yanxi Tower and Master Yan’s eldest disciple. If they want to see you, they will definitely not be able to do it if you don’t go."

After hearing this, Li Huidong couldn't help complaining: "Brother-in-law, why do you say everything to others?"

Lin Jiacheng said: "Then when you go to serve food to others, don't you also want to see me? What? You are Master Yanxi Louyan's eldest apprentice. Do you feel that you can't say it out loud?"

Li Huidong immediately said: "Brother-in-law, you said I can, but you can't say master."

Seeing that his brother-in-law is getting angry with him.

Lin Jiacheng quickly changed his words: "No, I didn't mean that. I meant that you are Master Yanxilou's eldest apprentice. There is nothing that can't be said. Telling it will give you more status, and the dishes you cook will gain recognition." If someone praises you, doesn’t Master Yan’s face shine?”

After saying this, Lin Jiacheng looked at Feng Zhengming and asked, "Zhengming, do you think what my brother-in-law said is right?"

Feng Zhengming originally stood aside and watched, but now he was asked this by his brother-in-law.

He smiled and said, "What my brother-in-law said is indeed reasonable. Using Master's name is actually a spur to ourselves, reminding us not to disgrace Master's name."

Lin Jiacheng said: "Look, Zhengming still knows how to speak. That's what I mean."

Li Huidong said: "Okay, Zhengming, you come with me. You made the dish of "Chicken with Soy Sauce" just now, so you should go and let others see it."

When Lin Jiacheng heard this, he quickly stopped him: "Why did you ask Zhengming to do it? They want to see you."

Feng Zhengming actually didn't want to see the deputy director.

He immediately agreed: "Brother-in-law is right. Senior brother, you and brother-in-law go and meet, let people know that we have not insulted the craftsmanship passed down to us by master, and let the deputy director know that you are really capable of contracting the canteen."

Lin Jiacheng clapped his hands again and praised: "Zhengming really knows how to speak, and my brother-in-law means the same thing."

Finally, Li Huidong served the food and followed his brother-in-law to serve the food.

There are two apprentices left in the kitchen: Feng Zhengming and his senior brother.

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng looked at each other and immediately came together in front of Feng Zhengming.

This time, the two of them no longer looked down upon Feng Zhengming when he first arrived, but treated him respectfully.

The two of them saluted Feng Zhengming together.

"Uncle Junior, it was the two of us who were rude before. Please forgive me, Junior Uncle."

"That's right, little uncle, you asked us to call you by your name before. It was because we didn't know what to do. We will definitely not call you by your name again in the future."

Feng Zhengming smiled and said: "We are of the same age, you really don't need to call me 'junior uncle'."

Zhang Lei quickly said: "No, no, master often teaches us that respecting teachers is the most important thing. Although we are about the same age, Pengzi and I are one or two years older than you, little master uncle, but your seniority is there, and We saw your craftsmanship tonight, so I still have to call you 'Little Master Uncle'."

Yang Peng echoed: "That's right, Junior Master, please don't hold grudges. If there is anything we don't understand in the future, I hope Junior Master will give us some pointers."

Feng Zhengming could see that the skills he showed really impressed the two apprentices, his senior brother.

He smiled calmly and said, "Okay, if you encounter any problems in the kitchen from now on, you can ask me. As long as I know how to do it, I will definitely teach you."

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng were immediately happy and thanked Feng Zhengming together: "Thank you, little uncle."

　There will be another update later. Thank you all for your tips and votes.
