Chapter 128 Severe shortage of manpower!



So arrogant, so haughty, so domineering—I wonder how much skill this person actually possesses.

Xu An stood up from his seat, met Liu Daxi's gaze, and smiled gently, "Master Liu, this way please."

After saying that, Xu An strode ahead and led the person to the second branch of Xu's Fast Food Restaurant.

Since Aunt He's friends came over, Zhou Qi has been completely freed from the work of serving meals. After 11 o'clock, it's basically free time. Now he is sitting idly by the sink, chatting and laughing happily with Aunt He and the others.

Zhou Qi, who was laughing, turned around unintentionally and saw Xu An walking towards him and Liu Daxi walking behind Xu An. The expression on his face immediately froze, just like a naughty child seeing an adult. He quickly stood up straight and pretended to be well-behaved.

Only after I stood still did I realize that I was now an independent chef, no longer a helper who could be summoned and dismissed at will.

Although that's what I was thinking, I still greeted him respectfully, "Master Liu, what brings you here?"

Liu Daxi was taken aback when he heard Zhou Qi address him. He searched his memory for a long time but couldn't find any related information about Zhou Qi. A look of doubt appeared on his face: "Who are you?"

“I worked at the Royal Banquet Hotel in 2004, and you were the head chef there at the time.” Zhou Qi scratched his head a little embarrassedly: “I was an assistant there, and you gave me some pointers a few times.”

"Oh, oh!" Liu Daxi looked like he suddenly realized something, but he still didn't remember Zhou Qi: "So, are you working at Xu's Fast Food Restaurant now?"

"Yes, I'm a chef at Xu's Fast Food Restaurant now." Zhou Qi's tone was very humble, but his expression was very proud.

Going from a lowly helper to a chef at a fast food restaurant might not seem like much to a seasoned chef like Liu Daxi, but for Zhou Qi, who started as a helper, it was quite an achievement.

"Oh! You cooked all three dishes and one soup at the restaurant today?" Liu Daxi asked, a hint of surprise in his voice.

“Yes.” Zhou Qi nodded and then quickly added, “I cooked it with the boss.”

boss?

Liu Daxi glanced at the young man standing next to him without showing any emotion. He hadn't expected that the owner of this fast food restaurant could cook, and his skills were quite good.

"Master Liu, since you're applying for the chef position, how about I give you a challenge and you give it a try?" Xu An interrupted their endless small talk. Once they became colleagues, there would be plenty of opportunities to chat.

"Sure." Liu Daxi nodded without hesitation, quite confident in himself: "Boss Xu, you give me the question."

Xu An glanced at the store's food inventory and blurted out the names of three dishes: "Oyster sauce lettuce, hot and sour shredded potatoes, and bitter melon stir-fried with eggs."

"OK!"

After Liu Daxi nodded, he walked to the vegetable basket without any hesitation and began to look through the vegetables inside, occasionally picking up a vegetable and smelling it under his nose.

You wouldn't believe it until you see it! The vegetables in this fast food restaurant are of exceptionally high quality!

It may not be quite as good as the big hotels I've worked at, but it can easily beat 99% of the restaurants and fast food outlets on the market.

No wonder the dishes taste so good; the quality of the vegetables alone deserves a perfect score.

After selecting the vegetables, Liu Daxi went to the back kitchen, familiarized himself with the kitchen utensils, and then began to show off his skills.

While Liu Daxi was busy in the kitchen, Xu An quietly approached Zhou Qi and whispered to ask him who this person was.

From their conversation, it is clear that Zhou Qi is quite familiar with Liu Daxi.
