"Let me accompany you to the White Swan, what do you have to say?"
Du Shaojie was no stranger to the White Swan Hotel.
This hotel opened at the beginning of the year and is the first truly five-star hotel in the history of Guangzhou. The investor is the Huo family, which can be said to have a deep background.
He just couldn't figure out what Qin Lu meant.
"Just go to a dinner party, and then accompany me to investigate other people's business model, that's all."
Qin Lu smiled, her meaning was very clear, she wanted to see the true level of the other party's Chinese restaurant.
So, she thought of bringing Du Shaojie, an expert.
"That's no problem!"
Du Shaojie nodded, he would not refute other people's face for such a small matter.
Qin Lu was still good to him, especially the identity of a Hong Kong resident provided him with a lot of conveniences, and he has always been grateful.
The next day.
Du Shaojie and Qin Lu went to Guangzhou together.
After getting off the car, the two separated temporarily and agreed to meet at the White Swan in the evening.
In fact, he was not interested in any banquets or dinners, but he wanted to see the level of the Chinese restaurant in a five-star hotel.
Of course, I can afford to eat alone, but today is a dinner hosted by the Huo family, so the dishes must be different from usual, right?
In the evening.
Du Shaojie came to the White Swan as agreed, and soon saw Qin Lu, who was dressed beautifully.
The other party looked very ladylike, and smiled sweetly, which was not the same as when she asked him for a light on the train.
Fortunately, Du Shaojie had bought two well-fitting suits in Hong Kong before, otherwise he would be embarrassed to walk with the other party. He didn't care, but he was afraid that it would affect Qin Lu.
"Lulu, you are so beautiful tonight."
"Ajie, you are also handsome."
The two flattered each other and went to the restaurant upstairs.
Before entering the door, Qin Lu took out the invitation, and the waiter led the two to a table and sat down.
The whole hall was filled with tables and chairs, and guests arrived one after another, and a middle-aged man gave a toast.
The foreplay didn't take long, and Du Shaojie didn't listen seriously. When he came to his senses, the dishes had already been served.
"What are you thinking about?"
There were 8 guests at the table. Qin Lu exchanged a few words with each of them. Du Shaojie just smiled and nodded at everyone, and then stopped talking.
Qin Lu turned her head and asked quietly.
"I'm not thinking about anything. Look, today's banquet is probably mainly Cantonese cuisine."
Du Shaojie saw the [Marinated Platter], [Sweet and Sour Pork], [Lotus King Duck], [Flying Fish with Scallion Oil], and so on. He
had some expectations in his heart.
The guests at the table gave way to each other and started eating.
Du Shaojie only tasted one bite of each dish, then cleaned his mouth with tea, and then tasted the second dish.
"Ajie, how do you feel?"
Qin Lu's eyes were full of stars. These dishes were really delicious and completely exceeded her expectations.
But the professional judgment still had to be heard by Chef Du.
"It's worthy of being a five-star hotel. I can also cook this table of dishes, but my level is definitely not as good as others."
The expression on Du Shaojie's face was very natural. There was nothing to be ashamed of to tell the truth.
He has never been an arrogant person, nor would he belittle himself, but the level of the chef cooking today is definitely above the special chef, at least a master chef.
Du Shaojie judged that his level should have reached the peak of the special chef, but there is still a gap from the level of the master chef.
"Ajie, do you know a chef of this level? After the hotel in Shenzhen is put into operation, the Chinese restaurant must be established. If you have a suitable candidate, you must recommend it to me."
Du Shaojie understood at once that it seemed that the Qin Group had great ambitions. The Shenzhen project was directly targeted at the White Swan invested by the Huo family.
Speaking of which, he really didn't know a "master chef" in reality, but he could pay attention to it. After
dinner, at Qin Lu's suggestion, the two went to the cafe to sit for a while.
"Lulu, the Chinese restaurant of White Swan is very distinctive, and the chef is very high. If you plan to emulate White Swan, I'm afraid you will have to spend a lot of money."
Du Shaojie didn't say too much, and Qin Lu was thoughtful after listening.
The two sat for more than half an hour before getting up and leaving. Du Shaojie and the other party separated downstairs and returned directly to their home in the old street.
In fact, he knew Qin Lu's thoughts very well. She was probably hesitating between running the business herself and outsourcing it to others. These two models have their own advantages, but for the Qin Group, running it by itself should be better.
Du Shaojie did not plan to get involved in high-end catering for the time being, so even if he saw the other party's thoughts, he would pretend to be confused.
At night.
Du Shaojie entered the simulation scene and planned to replicate today's table of dishes.
After 100 hours, he returned to reality and seemed a little helpless.
The replicated dishes were constrained by his current level of cooking skills, and they seemed a little overwhelmed, that is, they were a little worse than others.
[Exchange points: 27518 points\190666 points]
[Duration: 876,000 hours\3.605 million hours]
For the next period of time, Du Shaojie devoted himself to studying cooking skills and rarely went to [Xichuan Restaurant].
However, he still took the time to entertain Lin Zhiyuan and his two friends. In Feng Bin's matter, others helped him, so he couldn't just sit there and show some appreciation.
However, he did not dwell on the dishes that White Swan had eaten. His own accumulation was enough. What he had to do was to open the ceiling of his cooking skills and achieve a new breakthrough.
And the opportunity for the breakthrough was to make a dish that was comprehensively evaluated as [exquisite delicacies].
In the evening.
Liang Meiqin deliberately left work early and took Du Shaojie out to eat seafood.
"Shaojie, it's not good for you to stay at home all the time. Why don't you go out for a walk? There is no rush to study cooking skills. If you encounter a bottleneck, you can put it aside first. Maybe the effect will be better."
Liang Meiqin knew that the other party had been studying cooking skills, but it was a bit too much to stay at home.
She was afraid that the other party would go crazy, so she comforted him in various ways.
"It's okay, I just have a lot of ideas recently and plan to try them all. Don't worry, I won't get stuck in a dead end."
Du Shaojie smiled and shook his head, indicating that he had no problems.
At present, the business conditions of each store are very good. He doesn't need to do anything, and he can freely use a lot of free time.
After coming back from dinner, with Liang Meiqin's full cooperation, he was completely relaxed.
In fact, the two had not been together for quite a long time. Once Du Shaojie started to study cooking, he basically turned a deaf ear to the outside world and did not like to be disturbed by others.
If the weather had not been getting colder, he would have wanted to stay in Rongcheng.
Rongcheng and Shancheng are both treasure troves of delicious food, and there is simply too much to eat.
The next day.
After waking up from a sleep, Du Shaojie felt refreshed.
Liang Meiqin had already gone to work and prepared breakfast for him before leaving.
After washing up, he ate something and began to take stock of his gains in recent times.
During this period, he hardly cooked in reality, but he consumed a lot of time, an average of 1,000 hours a day, and the whole person looked muddle-headed.
Otherwise, Liang Meiqin would worry about him, because of this reason.
Therefore, he also planned to reduce the forced crossing. If he did this for a long time, his body would not be able to bear it, but his spirit would not be able to bear it.
Near noon, the phone suddenly rang.
He walked over to answer the phone, and Cai Jing's voice came from the microphone: "Ajie, I have good news for you. I won the bid for that piece of land."
Cai Jing seemed so excited that her voice was a little trembling.
The auction was held early in the morning. After several rounds of fierce bidding, Cai Jing finally won the land at a total price of 5.35 million yuan.
"Sister Cai, congratulations, congratulations! You have achieved your wish."
Du Shaojie was also happy for the other party. After winning this piece of land, he could go to the bank for a loan and then start building a residential community.
After the main structure is completed, it can be sold in advance, and the subsequent financial pressure is not so great.
"Ajie, I have to thank you. If it weren't for your one million support, I wouldn't dare to bid so high.
Do you have anything to do recently? Come over to celebrate and have a drink with me."
Du Shaojie just wanted to take a break, so he agreed.
The next day.
Du Shaojie went to Shenzhen.
The development of the special zone can be said to be changing with each passing day, and there will be some changes when you go there again after a period of time.
Cai Jing took Du Shaojie to see the plot of land in high spirits. The location was very good and the transportation was convenient.
Du Shaojie didn't understand real estate and couldn't give him too much advice.
"Let's go, I'll treat you to a meal."
Cai Jing then pulled Du Shaojie into the car. Nowadays, only those who have cars are powerful people, but Du Shaojie doesn't have one. It's not that he can't afford it, but it's very troublesome .
As a result, the other party took him to the [Seafood Restaurant].
"Boss, you are making a surprise attack. There are many varieties of seafood today, and they are very fresh. I will help you pick some?"
Xiao Jianjun came forward at the first time, and then Zhang Yufei also ran over.
Du Shaojie smiled and nodded. When he came to his own territory, he could eat whatever he wanted, so why did he need Cai Jing to treat him.
He could see that Cai Jing was too excited and needed someone to talk to, not to eat and drink.
"Ajie, Director Luo will retire at the latest by the year after next. You should visit him more often when you have time. I resigned to start a business and received strong support from the director. He helped me solve many problems."
The dishes were served quickly, and Du Shaojie went upstairs to get a bottle of Moutai.
After three rounds of drinking, Cai Jing told him the truth. It was precisely because Director Luo was going to retire that she took the lead, otherwise there would be a lot of trouble waiting for her.
After leaving the unit to start a business, the original opposition can be transformed into a helper.
Du Shaojie didn't understand this kind of thing, and he didn't need to understand it. He just listened quietly.
Cai Jing needed a reliable person to talk to, and he was undoubtedly the most suitable person.
"Sister Cai, eat some food first and drink slowly."
Du Shaojie actually admired Cai Jing very much. When Director Luo went south, she followed him without hesitation.
In addition to the support of the old leader, she opened up the situation with her own ability.
Now she has jumped out of the vortex of right and wrong and started a new business, which is better than many men.
The two talked a lot, mainly Cai Jing talking and Du Shaojie listening. In the end, not a drop of Moutai was left, and they drank it all up.
Du Shaojie felt a little dizzy, but Cai Jing seemed fine. (End of this chapter)
