Chapter 709 I owe too much

Time passed slowly.

Yu Zhiyu was a little surprised, it hadn't been half a month, and his master seemed to be getting lazy again.

Those radishes are being cut in the kitchen every day, and the business hours are pitifully short.

But what makes Yu Zhiyu happy is that, except for cutting the radishes every day, he is the one who cuts the rest of the vegetables.

…………

Chefs Association, in the president's office.

"Old Xu, the half-month agreement you made with Jiang Yang seems to be coming soon, right?" Lin Yong asked.

Xu Zheng nodded and said, "There are still two more days, don't worry."

Lin Yong and Xu Zheng drank tea together, and the tea was fragrant.

"You are not in a hurry. They will help you. You are lucky. You even made an appointment for a month and a half." Lin Yong scolded Xu Zheng.

Xu Zheng, who was drinking tea, didn't care about Lin Yong's scolding, and said, "Old Lin, you're making it sound like I don't know what's good and what's wrong."

Lin Yong said: "Isn't it just that you don't know good from bad?"

"Old Lin, to be honest, am I Xu Zheng a master chef?" Xu Zheng asked.

Lin Yong nodded and said, "Of course you are a master chef, but so what?"

Xu Zheng said: "I'm a culinary master, if I want to work in a restaurant, where can I go? Not to mention the shares in the restaurant, it's tens of thousands of yuan a month. There are a lot of restaurants vying for me to go."

Lin Yong poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "You're right, as long as you, a master chef, want to work, where can you not go? But have you ever thought about how many years you can still work?"

Lin Yong's question made Xu Zheng silent. After a long time, Xu Zheng sighed slightly: "You're right, I can't work for a few years. I always don't want to obey my old age, but I have to obey my old age."

Lin Yong comforted: "Everyone has a time to grow old, and there is nothing to be dissatisfied with."

After a pause, Lin Yong said again: "You know that few restaurants will give you a high salary for a chef who is not young like you. After all, the shorter the working years, the more money you can bring to the restaurant. The benefits will be less. As you said, there must be restaurants that will give you tens of thousands a month, but is tens of thousands enough for you?"

Xu Zheng stopped talking, he was unable to refute what Lin Yong said.

After another silence.

"I can't spend much money by myself, why is tens of thousands not enough?" Xu Zheng said stiffly.

Lin Yong cast a glance at Xu Zheng and said, "Old Xu, don't deceive yourself, you understand what I said better than anyone else. I know that you still have part of the debt to pay off. If you don't go to work, who do you expect to come?" Pay your debts? Your son or daughter?"

Xu Zheng's face turned green and white, Xu Zheng was very upset when someone exposed his scars back then, if it wasn't for Lin Yong who said this, Xu Zheng might have scolded him directly.

Even Lin Yong, Xu Zheng is still extremely uncomfortable.

I saw him drinking tea cup after cup, but he didn't speak.

Lin Yong looked at Xu Zheng's appearance, but also didn't speak, just watched quietly.

Lin Yong also felt a little helpless, if he could, he didn't want to do such a thing of exposing his scars face to face.

It's just...some things are not exposed, maybe Xu Zheng has to avoid them all the time.

Xu Zheng was drinking tea non-stop. It seemed that the tea had been turned into wine by him, as if he could get drunk after drinking a few more cups.

"Okay, don't drink so much." Lin Yong said.

Xu Zheng grinned and said, "What? Still feel sorry for your tea?"

Lin Yong said angrily: "I remind you kindly, why do you speak with thorns? I don't feel sorry for this tea. It's not good to drink too much water."

Xu Zheng lowered his head and ignored Lin Yong, but he didn't drink the tea.

Lin Yong sighed and said, "I know your difficulties, but Jiang Yang is kind enough to help you, so you don't have to make such an agreement to make things difficult for him, right?"

Xu Zheng raised his head and looked at Lin Yong. After a long time, he seemed to let go of his breath and said, "I also know that this agreement is a bit difficult. Although I, Xu Zheng, have no great skills in my life, I can't even educate my son." Well, I'm the only one who can be proud of my knife skill, which has been practiced hard for most of my life, and it's really unlikely that Jiang Yang will surpass me in half a month."

Lin Yong said speechlessly: "Where is the possibility that it is not possible, it is basically impossible. The knife skills can only rely on hard training, and the so-called epiphany basically does not play a big role. Your half-month appointment, obviously It just rejected Jiang Yang directly. In other words, Jiang Yang foolishly agreed to you, and if it were me, I would just slap my ass and leave, don't care about you."

Lin Yong's words made Xu Zheng's face blush.

"No, if Jiang Yang creates a miracle, it may not be possible." Xu Zheng said without confidence.

This is nothing else. In terms of knife skills, he is also the one who knows the most in the entire chef world.It is basically impossible to let the knife skills advance by leaps and bounds in half a month.If you are just starting to learn knife skills, it is still possible.But Jiang Yang's knife skills are already very good, and the rest can only be improved by a lot of practice and bit by bit.

Just as Lin Yong was about to say something, he suddenly remembered the age at which Jiang Yang became a culinary master, and couldn't help but change his words: "What Jiang Yang said, maybe it's really possible."

He used to think that it would take many years for Jiang Yang to become a culinary master. Even if he stepped in halfway, it was not easy to really step in.It is not uncommon for master chefs who have been stuck at the half-step threshold for decades.

However, Jiang Yang unexpectedly became a culinary master, which surprised the entire Chinese chef circle.

Therefore, Lin Yong didn't dare to judge whether Jiang Yang could surpass Xu Zheng in knife skills in half a month.

"Okay, I've had tea and chatted, so I'm leaving." Xu Zheng stood up and said.

"Wait a minute." Lin Yong called.

"Is there anything else?" Xu Zheng asked.

"When your agreement expires, I will also go and have a look." Lin Yong said.

Unexpectedly, Xu Zheng scolded: "Fuck off, my agreement with Jiang boy, you outsider, what are you watching?"

Lin Yong shrugged, and said, "It's okay not to look at it. When the time comes, you should be careful with what you say, and don't hit Jiang Yang too much."

Xu Zhi said: "Don't worry, Kid Jiang is not as delicate as he thought."

"I'm not afraid that your cursing will be too harsh." Lin Yong laughed.

"Fart! I have a very good temper, when did I ever scold someone?" Xu Zheng said with a beard and a stare.

Lin Yong said weakly: "All right, all you say is right, remember not to scold too much then."

Xu Zheng stood up and walked outside, leaving a sentence: "I know, it's been like this all my life, long-winded."

Lin Yong couldn't help laughing wryly when he heard this, but he didn't refute Xu Zheng's words.

When he reached the door, Xu Zheng stopped suddenly, and said without turning his head, "Old Lin, thank you, I owe you too much in this life, and I can't pay it off."

Before Lin Yong could speak, Xu Zheng opened the office door and left.
