Chapter 86 Temporary Mission
After completing all the preparations smoothly, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Du Shaojie had nothing to do next, and he was busy with the "stove" and "cooking". Zhong Fuxiang was the main force, responsible for cooking. Dong Jun was the assistant, responsible for the delivery of ingredients, the purchase of ingredients, the decoration of dishes, etc.
However, Du Shaojie and the other two could not leave, and they were waiting for Master Zhong's call at any time.
"Master Zhong, the dishes can be served. In addition, the leader specifically asked Xiao Du to make a [dry-fried fish], and you have to help keep a close eye on it when
the time comes." Not long after, Cao Dachuan walked in and said a few words to Zhong Fuxiang.
Zhong Fuxiang was stunned and said, "Manager Cao, it's probably against the rules to let Xiao Du cook on the stove?"
He definitely had no opinion on Du Shaojie. On the contrary, after the initial contact, he had a good opinion of this young man in all aspects.
But rules are rules. If you rashly let someone who doesn't even have the level of a chef cook on the stove, you're really afraid that it will ruin the restaurant's reputation.
"You! Isn't it obvious? The leader and Xiao Du are acquaintances, otherwise why would he be asked to cook that dish? It's right to follow the rules, but sometimes you need to be flexible. This is it, I'll be responsible if there is any problem."
Cao Dachuan usually respects Zhong Fuxiang, but at this time he had to take out the manager's airs.
Zhong Fuxiang nodded thoughtfully and started cooking.
Dong Jun and others also heard the conversation between the two. It would be a lie to say that they were not envious. The three of them had no chance to cook, but Du Shaojie broke the rules as soon as he came.
People can't be compared, who can blame him for having a strong backing?
"Xiao Du, you will go to the second stove to cook [Dry Braised Fish] later. You and Master Zhong will stagger the cooking time. Do you understand?"
Cao Dachuan waved his hand and called Du Shaojie to him.
The reason why he wanted to stagger the cooking time with Zhong Fuxiang was nothing more than to let Zhong Fuxiang check for him.
To be honest, if the leader hadn't named him, Cao Dachuan would not have let Du Shaojie cook.
"Understood!"
Du Shaojie responded neatly, and Cao Dachuan left the kitchen.
No one knew what Du Shaojie was feeling at the moment. The leader mentioned by the manager was Director Luo. Perhaps in the eyes of Dong Jun and others, it was a lucky thing to be appreciated by someone, but he smiled bitterly in secret.
Some things cannot be avoided just by wanting to avoid them, so just go with the flow.
Putting aside all the tangled thoughts, Du Shaojie walked to the second stove and began to prepare. It was just one dish, and he didn't need Dong Jun's help. He brought the ingredients and small ingredients over by himself, and then started to fry the fish.
After the fish was fried, the [Chicken Slices with Lotus Root] made by Zhong Fuxiang was just out of the pot.
Du Shaojie immediately started to make [Dry-fried Fish], and Zhong Fuxiang came over and stood aside, staring closely.
In fact, Zhong Fuxiang had already prepared himself in his heart. If the [Dry-fried Fish] made by the other party was not up to standard, he would ask someone to prepare the ingredients immediately and make another one himself. In short, he
must never let unqualified dishes be served on the table. This is his bottom line.
Du Shaojie was busy with his work without distraction. In his eyes, there was no room for anything else except this fish dish.
Perhaps he wanted to prove himself today. The whole production process was like divine help. On the basis of his already mature skills, he once again achieved self-transcendence.
Zhong Fuxiang looked at Du Shaojie's smooth movements, precise and neat fire control, and textbook-like standard operation procedures. He suddenly felt unreal.
How old is he? But watching his operation is like watching an old chef performing.
Young face and sophisticated cooking skills will inevitably produce a strong sense of disobedience.
"Bring a pair of bowls and chopsticks."
Zhong Fuxiang stretched out his hand, and Dong Jun handed over bowls, chopsticks and soup spoons.
When the [Dry-fried Fish] was finished, he tasted the taste and his brows relaxed immediately.
"Serve it."
Zhong Fuxiang secretly gave a thumbs up. The level of Du Shaojie's dish has reached a considerable level. It will definitely not ruin the restaurant's reputation but will only add luster to the restaurant.
His personality is like this. Even if he keeps praising in his heart, he doesn't say anything.
But Dong Jun and others saw the clue from the details that Zhong Fuxiang did not hesitate to serve the dishes.
Master Zhong has very high requirements for cooking skills. If he can find no fault with it, then the level of this dish is at least at the top level.
It's true that people don't judge by appearance. Today, Du Shaojie really shocked them.
Next, Zhong Fuxiang prepared all the dishes in an orderly manner and successfully completed this temporary task.
"Thank you for your hard work! Everyone go back. You will have half a day off tomorrow morning. Have a good rest. Xiao Du, don't leave yet. I have something to tell you."
After cleaning up the kitchen, Zhong Dexiang and others were about to leave when Cao Dachuan walked in with a smile on his face.
He had just received praise from his leader. Today, these dishes were all excellent, which made him, the restaurant manager, very proud.
So he not only praised Zhong Dexiang and others, but also immediately fulfilled his promise to give half a day off to those who worked overtime today. Finally, he left Du Shaojie alone.
Du Shaojie followed Cao Dachuan to a private room upstairs. When he opened the door, he saw Director Cai sitting alone inside.
Cao Dachuan brought the person in, then turned around and left, closing the door behind him.
"Hello, Director Cai!"
"Master Du, we meet again. Sit down, why are you standing?"
After Du Shaojie entered the room, he stood by the door and greeted the other party.
Director Cai pointed to the table and chairs and asked him to sit down and talk.
Du Shaojie then walked over and sat opposite Director Cai, waiting for the other party to speak.
"The director has to accompany several important guests today and can't leave, so he asked me to come and see you on his behalf. How do you feel here? If you encounter any difficulties, you can tell me."
Director Cai stated the purpose of his visit. Director Luo happened to come to Xijiang Hotel for dinner today, so she asked her to come and see Du Shaojie.
She had learned about it from Cao Dachuan before, and the other party said that Du Shaojie's performance in the hotel was remarkable. He was not only diligent and studious, but also quickly got rid of the situation of being isolated by everyone with his own strength.
She felt very relieved. It seemed that Director Luo did not make a mistake.
"I'm fine here, Director Cai, there is a question I have been thinking about, and I want to ask you today when I have the chance. It was Director Luo who seconded me from the farm to Xijiang Hotel, right?"
Du Shaojie had actually confirmed this matter 100% in his heart, but he still asked it in person, just to know what all this was for?
Director Cai laughed and responded:
"I knew you would ask this! The director thinks you are a promising talent, so he plans to let you practice more. Master Du, you can't get ahead if you always stay in the farm. The world outside is very broad, and it won't hurt to gain more knowledge."
Du Shaojie was silent for a moment, and then he expressed his gratitude sincerely: "Thank you Director Luo! Thank you Director Cai!"
He had figured it out. Director Luo and Director Cai in front of him had no ill will towards him. They just helped him because they liked him.
This was just a trivial matter for others, but it was a great opportunity for him.
If he didn't have a golden finger.
Du Shaojie didn't think about the future anymore, so he just took things as they came. He is a grateful person, otherwise why would he care so much when something happened to Su Dapeng's family?
So this thank you is absolutely sincere, and Director Cai can feel it.
"The director said that you are very talented in cooking, and today's [dry-fried fish] has improved again. This weekend, the director will hold a family dinner at home, and I will trouble you and Master Liao to prepare it at that time."
"Thank you for the compliment from Director Luo, I will work hard to improve myself. There is no problem with the weekend. Should I wait for your notice or ask Master Liao?"
When Director Cai asked Du Shaojie to help, he agreed without hesitation.
If you don't understand this little bit of human relations, wouldn't you have lived two lives in vain?
Director Cai was very happy and asked Du Shaojie to wait for notice, and she would call Cao Dachuan's office at that time.
"You have been working overtime so late, go back and rest."
The two chatted for a while, and Director Cai ended the conversation.
Du Shaojie rode his bicycle home. It was late at night when he got home. Wang Yuxiu, Xiaomei and Xiaoya were all asleep.
[Bound Chef: Du Shaojie]
[Level: First-class Worker]
[Current Work: Dry-fried Fish]
[Overall Rating: Medium]
[Bonus: Restaurant Management Tutorial (VII)]
[Reward: Dried Abalone (4 kg), Simulation Training Time (40 hours)]
[Special Reward: Clear Oil (20 kg), Eggs (20 kg), White Sugar (20 kg), Spices (20 kg), Seasonings (20 kg)]
Note: Break through the ceiling of the current comprehensive evaluation of dishes and trigger special rewards.
Du Shaojie lay on the bed and checked today's harvest, and couldn't help laughing silently.
When he made [Dry-fried Fish] today, he had a hunch that his dish would make a breakthrough. Sure enough, [Dry-fried Fish] received a comprehensive evaluation of "Medium".
Since it was the first dish to reach the "Medium" level, it triggered special rewards and got a lot of very practical reward items.
Among them, 20 kg of spices almost covered all the mainstream varieties, which was enough for him to use for a long time.
In addition, the seasoning also contains 1 kilogram of "papain", which has a good effect of tenderizing meat and may be useful at critical moments.
The ceiling of cooking skills has been opened, and Du Shaojie has a new direction of effort, which is to make 10 dishes with a comprehensive evaluation of "medium" in reality and complete a new round of achievements.
Then, he fell asleep with his head tilted.
The next day.
Du Shaojie still got up at dawn, went for a run first, and then "lifted iron" in the yard after coming back, until he was sweating all over, and then ended today's exercise.
After returning to the house to wash and change clothes, Wang Yuxiu, Xiaomei, and Xiaoya got up to wash and eat breakfast.
"Brother, don't you have to rush to work today?"
Because Xijiang Hotel is far from Chunfeng Lane, Du Shaojie usually leaves early, and he doesn't have time to eat at home today.
Xiaomei was curious and asked while packing her schoolbag.
