Food starts with noodles

I am renovating my house recently and can't open a shop to start a business, okay?

However, he also knew that if he wanted to practice his skills during this period of time, he would be able to get systematic training no matter whether he went to Xu's Restaurant or Sichuan Restaurant.

Even in Rongcheng, if he went to help Zhang Fugui's restaurant, he would be welcomed with applause.

There are few people today, and there are not many dishes prepared. There are eight dishes in total. There are hot dishes and cold dishes. Although Zhang Yuejin hasn’t cooked for a long time, the fried dishes are still very authentic. Xu Zhuo was amazed.

The old man is old and can't drink too much wine, and Zhang Yuejin has to catch a plane in the afternoon, so he can't drink too much, so they each drank a small glass and had a drink.

However, Zhang Yuejin has already made an appointment with the old man, and when he is free, he will go to the Central Plains to visit them and taste the old man's craftsmanship by the way.

The old man patted his chest and said no problem.

After eating and drinking enough, and without delaying the lunch break, the old man took the lead in saying goodbye.

Zhang Yuejin was worried that the few people would not be able to get a taxi, so he asked his driver to drive the few people to Yao Meixiang's house.

As soon as he got home, the old man handed his mobile phone to Xu Zhuo: "How does this business of buying and delivering flowers online work? You can play with it for me."

Xu Zhuo was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean? What kind of flowers do you want to buy?"

The old man patted him: "Isn't it Qixi Festival today? I haven't bought flowers for your grandma yet. How does this thing work? Help me make it so your grandma won't be unhappy..."

Boss Xu pouted, with a helpless expression on his face.

It doesn't feel good to be stuffed with dog food inadvertently.

Seeing him in a daze, the old man said, "You silly boy, you forgot, didn't you? Didn't you buy a gift for that girl from the Yu family?"

Boss Xu naturally wouldn't admit it: "We don't give gifts, we just give out red envelopes."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and began to operate the steps of sending flowers online.

This thing is actually similar to takeaway, just enter the address, choose the type of flower and the style of the bouquet to send, and pay online, and someone will be arranged to deliver it immediately.

If you want to include a card in the bouquet, they will do it for you.

When Xu Zhuo was about to submit the order, he asked the old man, "Do you still need to write cards?"

The old man asked curiously, "What card?"

Xu Zhuo explained to him with a smile: "It's just a card with the love words you want to say to my grandma. It can be carried in the bouquet. Doesn't it look romantic?"

He was planning to pay the amount while talking, thinking that the old man and the old lady are old couples, so there must be nothing to say.

As a result, as soon as I thought of this, the old man next to me said: "Well, then write that you will always be my little sweet, this sentence is enough, your grandma understands what it means..."

belch……

Today's dog food is a bit full.

Sweetie, this is really 666.

Xu Zhuo couldn't help but double-click to like the two old people.

After the order was submitted, the old man happily entered Xu Zhuo's room to take a lunch break.

Boss Xu was sitting in the living room, staring at the phone and lost in thought.

Today's Chinese Valentine's Day, what gift should I give Yu Keke?

This is the first Valentine's Day for the two of them, and it must not be improvised.

After thinking about it, Xu Zhuo decided to ask others to see if they have any good suggestions...

Chapter 235 Happy Tanabata Festival

He glanced at Wei Junming and Xu Wenhai, who were also playing with their phones, and said, "Today's Chinese Valentine's Day, have you both prepared gifts?"

Xu Wenhai nodded: "When you went to the airport, I bought a bottle of perfume for your mother, how about you? Didn't you prepare any gifts?"

This rhetorical question left Xu Zhuo speechless.

Compared to Xu Wenhai, Wei Junming is a bit straight: "What does Qixi Festival have to do with gift giving?"

Well, there really is no connection.

But people give gifts, so we can't just say the same thing.

After all, the romance between couples is not a business negotiation, so there is no need to be so meticulous.

He was a little surprised that Xu Wenhai could take the initiative to buy a gift. He originally wanted to buy a gift for Yu Keke and give it to Yu Keke in front of Chen Guifang, to stimulate Chen Guifang.

Unexpectedly, he made the first move.

It's appropriate for Xu Wenhai to give Chengui fragrant water, but it's not good to give it to himself as cocoa perfume. He hasn't reached the age of paying attention to perfume, so buying perfume is a bit perfunctory.

You have to buy things that are in line with Coco's age and what she likes.

Xu Zhuo scrolled through the circle of friends, the dynamics of people who gave gifts and posted gifts, and all kinds of singles playing jokes, which made him dazzled.

While he was thinking hard, Xu Wenhai called Chen Guifang on the phone: "Where are you? We went home... yes... we didn't drink too much, each of us drank a small cup... that's fine, I'll wait at home You."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Wenhai said: "The two of them walked around the street all morning, and then met up with your godmother to eat skewers. They just finished eating and are taking a taxi to get back. Xiaozhuo, prepare some for Keke. What gift from you?"

This question is a bit of a question of whether you haven't written your homework after I finished my homework.

Boss Xu narrowed his eyes, he really couldn't think of anything to give away.

I didn't wear any jade pendant myself, otherwise it would be reasonable to just take it off and give it to someone else.

But all over his body, he didn't have any jade pendants, bracelets and rings, and he didn't even buy a watch.

Is it really necessary to use sweet words to fool him?

But when he thought of Xu Wenhai beside him, he had a bad feeling.

He had been making up the knife yesterday morning, and now it was finally Xu Wenhai's turn to deal with him.

But Xu Zhuo's only advantage is that Yu Keke won't do anything to him.

Even if he said a few sweet words casually, this girl would be very happy.

But if he did this, Xu Zhuo always felt a little scumbag.

After thinking about it for a while, he planned to give away the gift he got today.

Xu Zhuo patted the box: "This is my gift to Ke Ke, how about it?"

Xu Wenhai and Wei Junming's eyes widened immediately: "What? You want to give this recipe to Ke Ke? She doesn't know how to cook, so why are you giving her this stuff?"

Boss Xu began to argue forcefully: "Based on my current level, this recipe is completely incomprehensible, and I don't have time to understand it, so letting Keke hold it is considered safekeeping for me."

"And this also represents my attitude. This recipe is priceless to me, but I can still give it away for love. Even if the old man of the Yu family knows it, he can't say anything."

"Of course, maybe someone else has such a cookbook at home. I read it. There are at least a dozen copies of this cookbook. So giving it to Ke Ke is like asking for directions."

From the perspective of cultural relics, this recipe is not low in value, after all, it is a unique copy, and it is still from the palace.

But from the perspective of a chef, this cookbook is all about basic dishes, and there is nothing worth studying.

The real high-end dishes are all soups, and this is the essence.

Now the lost dishes of Shandong cuisine are almost all soups and relatively cumbersome high-end dishes. There are no lost dishes in stir-fry and cold dishes, so the research value of this recipe is not high.

After Xu Zhuo's explanation, the two nodded in doubt.

But Xu Wenhai still had some disbelief: "Did you not prepare a gift and plan to use this to perfunctory Keke?"

Xu Zhuo shook his head: "How is it possible? I transferred 5200 yuan to her earlier, which represents my heart. Do you have 5200 yuan for the perfume you bought?"

Xu Wenhai stopped talking.

Holding the mobile phone, Xu Zhuo quickly transferred 5200 yuan to Yu Keke, and also made a note: "My dear, happy Chinese Valentine's Day!"

As a result, less than 2 minutes after he transferred, Yu Keke's voice suddenly sounded in the yard: "Wow, the handsome boss just transferred me 5200, hahahaha, I have to take a screenshot and send it to Moments to show off..."

Xu Wenhai glanced at Xu Zhuo with a clear expression.

Boss Xu coughed twice: "The Internet in Rongcheng is just not good, it's been delayed for at least two hours..."

The two of them did a lot of shopping today, carrying big and small bags, and even Yao Meixiang helped them carry several clothes.

Yu Keke put all her mind beside Xu Zhuo, and began to stuff it into Xu Zhuo's arms.

"My aunt and I chose these shoes together. You can try them. There are also these two pairs of pants, these shirts and T-shirts, and there are two coats and a sportswear. Let me see where they are. It's..."

Most of the clothes this girl brought were bought for Xu Zhuo, which made Boss Xu a little embarrassed.

"Ke Ke, I have a lot of clothes, you bought me so much... You take this box, this is my Qixi Festival gift for you."

Yu Keke didn't expect that Xu Zhuo sent her a red envelope and prepared a gift, so he took it immediately, and while fiddling with the box, he said to himself: "Such an exquisite box, and it's so high-end, did you buy me calligraphy and painting?"

When I opened it, it turned out to be a tattered book.

She looked at Xu Zhuo in surprise: "What is this?"

Wei Junming said: "You can take a picture and ask your grandfather to find out, this book is priceless, you should cherish it well."

Yu Keke nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, godfather, I will definitely keep it well."

Xu Zhuo took all his clothes and shoes into Li Hao's room, and he didn't dare to go back now, for fear of disturbing the old man's lunch break.

Tried it on and it fits fine.

Walking out of the room, Yu Keke was taking pictures.

For the old man, a life without pretense is incomplete, but from Coco's point of view, a life without showing off is boring.

Usually Xu Zhuo can't help showing off when she does little things, but today is a special day when everyone is posting presents and showing happiness, and the rich woman Yu will not miss it.

She took pictures of the Huanghuali box and the cookbook respectively, and then sent them to Moments along with the screenshot of Xu Zhuo transferring money to her, along with a sentence: "Happy Qixi Festival!"

As soon as it was posted, Li Hao commented: "It's late but it's here!"

Yu Keke replied, "What do you mean?"

Li Hao returned quickly: "Although the big rich woman will be late to show off, she will never be absent."

Chapter 236

Xu Zhuo took the phone and asked Li Hao, "Aren't you going to Mount Emei? Why are you so leisurely?"

Li Hao replied: "I saw in the tourist group that there are many people on Mount Emei, so we didn't go there. We ate Dongpo meat and Dongpo pork in the urban area of ​​Meishan, and we will take a shuttle bus back to Rongcheng later."

Dongpo meat?

Isn't this Hangzhou cuisine?

Xu Zhuo looked at Wei Junming and asked, "Is Dongpo pork from Sichuan or Zhejiang?"

Wei Junming smiled: "Yes, there is no definite conclusion on this thing. As long as Su Dongpo has been to places, there is Dongpo meat. For example, Huangzhou in Hubei and Xuzhou in Anhui also have Dongpo meat. There is even a Dongpo four in Xuzhou." Jane."

When he said that, Xu Zhuo understood.

That's how food culture came about.

This is the case in ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, when a celebrity complements each other, it not only increases the popularity of the celebrity, but the star effect of the celebrity also endows this dish with a story other than food.

Win-win!

So no matter in ancient times or now, people like to associate food with celebrities.

If Zhang Ergou eats a dish and praises it with a thumbs up, everyone doesn’t think so, and even despises it. What qualifications do you, Zhang Er, have to evaluate this dish?

But if a celebrity gives a thumbs up and praises the food, it will immediately become a good story in the food industry, and even form a food trend.

Boss Xu has seen this kind of thing too much, so Wei Junming understood what it meant when he said it a little.

At the moment Li Hao is still chattering in the group about how delicious the food in Meishan is, Dongpo pork melts in the mouth, Dongpo elbow is fat but not greasy, etc.

Xu Zhuo couldn't help but asked him after watching it: "You are arguing about going to Meishan today, did you watch some food show and want to eat Dongpo pork and Dongpo pork?"

After he sent out these words, there was a silence in the group.

Yu Keke was the first to respond: "That's right, it seems that Li Hao can really do this kind of thing..."
