Liu Qinghuan and Ye Heng went out hand in hand. Although they were going to buy food, it was also a date.
The houses in Suzhou City are surrounded by water, and there are people paddling small boats on the water.
"This place is really different from the north." Ye Heng said.
"Yes, yes, the air here is very moisturizing. I feel my skin has gotten better." With Ye Heng's company, Liu Qinghuan felt better in every way.
"Where can we find orchids... I don't see any hillsides in Suzhou City. If they are not wild, the cost of this ingredient will be very high." We can't use artificially bred ornamental flowers to make stuffing.
"Just ask." After Ye Heng finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and grabbed a person.
The person who was caught was confused and very angry at first, but when he saw Ye Heng's ferocious face, he became terrified.
“Where are the wild orchids?”
"This... Big brother, there are wild orchids everywhere. Go forward, there is an abandoned house, and the yard is full of orchids." The young man was holding the collar and couldn't breathe, but he still had to look at Ye Heng with a flattering face.
"Got it. Thank you."
Ye Heng let go of the young man and thanked him in a proper manner.
Liu Qinghuan: Thank you so much, please don’t be so mean…
I quickly pulled the person away and walked a little further. Sure enough, I saw a field of orchids growing in a shabby yard without even a door.
"It's blooming just right. Zijun, let's pick all these." As he said this, he was about to roll up his sleeves and get to work.
"We need a basket." Ye Heng pulled Liu Qinghuan up and tapped her nose.
Liu Qinghuan chuckled twice: "I don't know what's wrong with my brain lately."
"I don't mind."
Liu Qinghuan and Ye Heng had no choice but to go somewhere else to buy flour and other things, and then came back to pick all the orchids in the yard.
When leaving, Liu Qinghuan said, "Come back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, maybe there will be a lot more flowers."
Orchid: Trembling, are you a devil?
When the two returned, they saw An Lin was there too.
"Uncle An, what's the matter?"
An Lin glanced at the basket of orchids in Ye Heng's hand and was a little confused.
"Oh, I heard there's going to be a grand event the day after tomorrow, and I'm planning to go there to advertise our shop." Liu Qinghuan explained after seeing An Lin's confused look.
"I see. Boss Liu is truly dedicated to business. I'm here for business matters. Now that we've chosen a shop, we should also decorate it and recruit staff. I wonder if Boss Liu has any advice for us?"
When Liu Qinghuan heard about the renovation, he paused and said, "Leave it to me. The people I lead are specifically responsible for this. When the time comes, have him find some helpers and it will be completed quickly."
"I have some connections here, and I have those materials. If you need anything, just tell me."
"No, no, just let my people do it. Uncle An, you can go back in five days, and the decoration and storage will be ready for you. This is what we discussed at the beginning. Besides, since it's a chain store, the decoration should be the same. If we find a construction team here, I don't have the drawings for them to follow." The contract between the two did say that Liu Qinghuan would provide the shop, and the decoration was naturally part of the shop.
"Since Boss Liu said so, I'll take a couple of days off." An Lin wasn't one to take on too much, so if he could take some time off, he would do it without hesitation.
"Of course not. Boss An has to recruit some people these days, especially for the kitchen. I'll pass on all my skills to them. I have to keep this person in my hands."
An Lin understood what Liu Qinghuan meant. Most of the chefs who opened restaurants brought their own skills. However, their situation was different, so they did need to be more cautious.
"Then does the chef in the kitchen have any requests?"
"A little experience is enough. If you have previous skills, it would be difficult to teach you."
"That makes sense." Liu Qinghuan was just making it up, but An Lin felt that it was because Liu Qinghuan's level was too high that his thoughts were different.
After all, An Lin knew nothing about anything in the kitchen.
"I believe in Boss An's judgment. Let's each do our own thing and call it a day in five days."
"Okay, I'll take care of the manpower."
On the second day, Liu Qinghuan and Ye Heng went to the kitchen to turn the ingredients they brought back into finished products.
"Isn't it too early to do it now?"
After all, it doesn’t start until tomorrow night. Although the temperature is not high now, it will still be a bit stale by then.
"Don't worry, make the filling today and freeze it. Otherwise, the flowers will be stale. Steam them tomorrow morning and they won't be stale." Liu Qinghuan pointed to the basket of fresh orchids.
"Then I'll help you."
"Just watch from the side and don't make any trouble." Liu Qinghuan didn't expect Ye Heng's big hands covered with sword calluses to help her in the kitchen.
I can also wash the dishes.
Liu Qinghuan wanted to wash the flowers, so she picked up a ladle and scooped water.
Ye Heng: "I'll help you scoop it."
Liu Qinghuan poured the flowers in, rinsed them in water, and then placed them in a stone mortar to crush them.
Ye Heng: "I'll help you."
Liu Qinghuan: "Okay, okay, then you do it. Wash and crush all of these, then put them in here and freeze them."
Liu Qinghuan bought two cubes of ice from the store and put them in a large porcelain bowl.
"good."
Ye Heng was very strong, and soon the orchid was beaten to pieces.
Liu Qinghuan: ...
"It doesn't have to be so bad..."
This can't be seen as an orchid at all, it's orchid mud!
Ye Heng looked at the mess under his command and felt a little embarrassed.
"I'll be gentle with the rest. When they're mixed together, it won't be noticeable." Ye Heng tried to save face, and Liu Qinghuan nodded awkwardly.
After the flowers were mashed into a puree, they were covered with a plate and placed in a large, icy basin. Liu Qinghuan then placed a bowl of ice cubes on top.
"It's not a big deal. I'll get up and knead the dough tomorrow morning."
"Why don't you find someone to help you?" Ye Heng saw that there was a lot of stuffing and it must be very troublesome to wrap it.
Liu Qinghuan patted Ye Heng and said, "It's not in the shop. Only I can make that taste. Are you stupid?"
Ye Heng understood that Liu Qinghuan was talking about the system, so he nodded: "Then I'll accompany you."
"You just need to serve tea and water tomorrow." Liu Qinghuan patted Ye Heng's shoulder, looking as if he was entrusted with an important task.
"Yes, sir." Ye Heng also cooperated and responded very seriously. Liu Qinghuan chuckled.
"Let's go, Sister Li said that the clothes designed in Suzhou are very beautiful. Go with me to pick out two pieces so that I can wear them and choose Baihuaxian." Liu Qinghuan laughed enough and said again.
"You want to choose the Hundred Flower Fairy?" Ye Heng frowned. This title sounded like the kind that someone else's young master would crazily propose to her for. It was really inappropriate.
He knew immediately that the person in front of him was jealous. To avoid unnecessary disaster, Liu Qinghuan coaxed him, "I'm joking. Which flower fairy would choose a cook? Those ladies who are good at music, chess, calligraphy and painting will be pissed to death."
