"good!"

Su Changyao was not vague either. He directly picked up the pork belly and put it on the chopping board to start cutting it. The pork belly he cut was even in size, as if it had been cut with a ruler, which was enough to show his knife skills.

When a dish of braised pork was about to be served, Gu Min finally understood what those gourmets in the yard meant when they said that making braised pork tests the chef's skills.

Not only was she drooling when she smelled the braised pork in the pot, the two aunts who were wiping the tables, chairs and benches outside couldn't help but stick their heads into the kitchen to take a look when they smelled the aroma.

A dish of braised pork came out of the pot and he presented it to Gu Min.

“Try it!”

Gu Min picked up a piece of fat and lean braised pork and put it into his mouth. He didn't know what to say for a moment.

Because the taste is so good, it doesn’t feel greasy, and the taste is indescribable.

"Your cooking skills are at the level of a state banquet."

After praising him, Gu Min asked, "With your cooking skills, isn't it a waste of your talent to come to a small braised food restaurant like ours, which is privately owned?"

Who hasn’t done a state banquet?

But that glory is a death warrant, so it’s better not to mention it.

Otherwise, why would he have been confined to Qingshan Mental Hospital for so many years, performing photosynthesis like a plant?

Being a plant is much easier than being a human.

But it was also his self-abandonment that caused his loved ones to leave one by one and led to the tragic deaths of Xiuwan and her child.

If they were like himself, not caring or taking things seriously, and willing to be a plant without emotions, then perhaps his relatives would still be alive.

Su Changyao was heartbroken when he thought of the little girl who looked just like Xiuwan and who could not escape the fate of going to the countryside when she grew up and never came back.

He knew it was time for him to come out.

He couldn't be a plant anymore. He had to be a human being and settle accounts with those who harmed their Su family and those who killed Xiuwan and her daughter.

In just a short moment, Su Changyao went through a long period of psychological activities, but nothing showed on his face.

Knowing that Gu Min would definitely investigate him, Su Changyao simply said, "He has a bad background. He has been hiding in a mental hospital for a long time, helping them cook and avoid the world."

Su Changyao guessed correctly, Gu Min did doubt his identity.

She called Su Guangyao: "Let's have dinner together. I can't answer you for now. I'm just managing the shop for someone else."

"Where do you live now? I'll let the boss taste the braised pork you made. I'll ask someone to send a letter to you with the result."

Gu Min explained: "Our shop will open in three days. I will send you a letter tomorrow to let you know whether I will hire you or not."

"I'm still trying the dishes privately these days."

Su Changyao was not discouraged and nodded quietly, as if he was not very interested in whether Gu Min would use him or not.

It was completely different from the enthusiasm he had when cooking before.

Gu Min picked up two pieces of braised pork made by Su Changyao and gave them to the two aunties who helped with cleaning. He and Su Changyao each got a few pieces. She planned to wait for Lu Baiwei, He Ting and others to come back from school to taste the rest.

The other three dishes were so delicious that they were bought out by the girls.

Su Changyao is a strange man who seems to be at peace with the world. This is fully reflected in the way he eats. He eats very simple and small portions.

After dinner, Su Changyao left, leaving his address at his friend's place.

But before leaving, she gave Gu Min a suggestion: "Try making stewed dishes. You will have to buy a lot of meat and vegetables every day, which will inevitably be wasted."

"You can use the braised meat made during the trial run to test the store. This way you can understand the customer flow and the popularity of the braised dishes in the store. On the day of the official opening, you can better understand how much ingredients to purchase."

"Also, in addition to white flour buns, you can also have some flour as the staple food."

"Whether it's dry or soup-mixed, the braised noodles can satisfy the needs of diners."

After saying these words, Su Changyao left without looking back.

As soon as Gu Min heard what he said, he knew that he was an expert.

After calling He Hua who was in the army, Gu Min made a special trip to the farmers' market and bought some noodles.

Then when Lu Baiwei, He Ting and others came back from school, they not only ate the braised pork made by Su Changyao, but also the braised noodles and rice noodles made by Gu Min.

The gravy was slightly spicy, and pregnant Tang Yunling's appetite was greatly increased, so she ate two bowls directly.

"Weiwei, I plan to sell braised rice noodles or noodles in our braised food restaurant. We can make rice noodles or noodles with braised sauce, or we can make them with soup. In this way, the state-owned restaurants have plain noodles, and we also have special staple foods in our restaurant."

Lu Baiwei did have plans in this regard, but because she couldn't predict the level of the chef she would hire and was afraid that the store would be overwhelmed at the beginning, she planned to use large steamed buns with braised dishes first, and then noodles later.

Finally, Gu Min brought it up himself.

Lu Baiwei was very surprised: "Sister-in-law, when you haven't seen someone for three days, you should look at them with new eyes."

"This braised pork is so delicious. Where did you learn this trick from?"

"I didn't make this, and it wasn't my idea. It was made by a chef named Su Changyao."

Gu Min told He Hua about Su Changyao's visit to find a job, and also told him the results of the investigation after He Hua went to Qingshan Hospital.

"This guy has a bad background. Some of his family members died or got sick. Then he said he was crazy too. He has been living in Qingshan Mental Hospital for many years. He doesn't hit or scold anyone. When he's in a good mood, he occasionally goes to the kitchen to help with cooking."

"I always feel a little unsure about such a powerful person falling from the sky. As soon as he left, I called your brother to investigate."

"It is said that the doctors at Qingshan Mental Hospital were reluctant to let him go, but he has fully recovered and there is no reason to keep him there any longer."

"From what your brother said, there have never been any problems with the dishes he makes when he's in a good mood. On the contrary, he's very popular in the mental hospital."

"As long as he's cooking in the kitchen, all the food in the mental hospital will be snapped up that day."

"That's the thing. It's up to you to decide whether or not to use this person."

Su Changyao, Lu Baiwei is familiar with this name.

In her previous life, she did business with Yin Zhihe in the south. The boss behind the largest hotel in Pengcheng was this name.

It is said that he was locked up in a mental hospital for more than ten years when he was young.

Then it started to flourish during the reform and opening up period, and it became unstoppable. Its chain hotels opened all over the country, making it a giant in the domestic hotel industry.

She had only seen this man once in her previous life, and it was Yin Zhi and his uncle who introduced her to him as a VIP guest of their hotel.

Lu Baiwei asked Gu Min: "What does he look like?"

"He's as tall as A-Ting. How can I describe his temperament? It's hard to put into words. He has a bit of Yan Feng's refined and elegant scholarly air, but a bit more mature."

"Noble. If I have to use one word to describe him, he looks quite noble."

Although his white shirt was worn out and he looked like he was living in poverty, the first impression he gave to Gu Min was that he could indeed be described as noble, and this nobility came from his bones.
