Food starts with noodles

Xu Zhuo didn't promise him anything, he just said that after Lu Xiaobing went, he could do a survey first, find out the situation in the provincial capital, and sign an agreement if possible.

Then register a company and let Lu Xiaobing toss about it.

After the end, Lu Xiaobing took Zou Yushu to go shopping, while Xu Zhuo drove around with the little girl around the bare and unsightly West Lake.

If you come to Hangzhou but don’t go to the West Lake, you always feel that something is missing.

But after walking around the West Lake, there was nothing to see.

At this time, there are no flowers and plants, and there is no scenery. Even so, there are bustling crowds everywhere. It is really better to watch it on the Yellow River Beach.

The next morning, he left Hangzhou by high-speed train with the little girl and Lu Xiaobing who packed up his belongings.

Before leaving, Dai Yunxia gave Yu Keke a brooch studded with diamonds.

Xu Zhuo really didn't expect that rich people would still wear such useless accessories as brooches.

But the little girl was very satisfied, pinned it to her chest happily, and even took a few selfies and sent them to the group.

But the drill on the brooch was a bit small, so Sun Panpan looked at it for a long time, but couldn't see the two points of the selfie. Instead, he teased the little girl that the airport looked so flat.

……

All the way to the provincial capital, when Xu Zhuo came out of the high-speed railway station, he saw Chen Guifang who came to greet him.

She drove a car and took a few people to the airport...

Two days ago Xu Zhuo left the car at the airport, this time he came back by high-speed train, so now he has to drive the car away.

On the way, Chen Guifang chatted with Lu Xiaobing about the food delivery company.

Xu Zhuo didn't say much.

Because he is not very familiar with starting a company. In addition, the main investors of the food delivery company this time are the little girl and Chen Guifang, and there is nothing wrong with Boss Xu.

So he is not very enthusiastic.

At the airport, Xu Zhuo let the little girl continue to sit in Cheng Guifang's car, so that the three partners could have a good chat about starting the company.

Xu Zhuo drove by himself, followed behind Chen Guifang's car, and drove slowly to the provincial capital.

After eating at Xu's restaurant, Xu Zhuo helped Lu Xiaobing find a single room in an apartment nearby.

What Chen Guifang meant was to just start a company right now. Anyway, with an investment of hundreds of thousands, it doesn't matter if it loses money.

However, Lu Xiaobing insisted on investigating, otherwise he felt that it would be unsafe to take the investor's money.

Xu Zhuo let him go.

Anyway, there is still some time before moving to the provincial capital, so Lu Xiaobing can visit the provincial capital and find out the takeaway situation in the provincial capital.

When it was getting dark, Xu Zhuo and the little girl drove to David City, bought a brooch of the same style as Dai Yunxia's gift, and then drove to the old lady's house.

The little girl doesn't like this brooch very much, so she wants to give it to the old lady.

But you can't just give one away, so Xu Zhuo drove to David City to buy another one.

Today is not only to visit the two old ladies, the main reason is that the latest version of the design drawing has come out, so Xu Zhuo needs to look at it.

If possible, the construction team can be found here.

But Xu Zhuo didn't have any hope.

Because judging from the tasks given by the system, if the design drawings can be finalized within one month and workers enter the site, the task will be considered as passed. It is less than half a month now, will it be so fast?

This design drawing will definitely need to be revised.

When they entered the house, the two old ladies had just had dinner.

Today the nanny made dumplings stuffed with mutton and radish for the two of them, which seemed to taste pretty good, because the two old ladies had no one left and ate them all.

As soon as the little girl came in, she took out two brooches: "The presents for you two old girlfriends, one for each of you, don't snatch it."

Two diamond brooches, one red and one blue.

This is a little girl's bad taste, forcing red and blue CP.

The old lady of the Xu family chose red, and the old lady of the Yu family chose blue.

After getting the brooch, the two old ladies quickly pinned it on and asked the little girl to take a few photos.

Xu Zhuo is not very interested in this matter, and he doesn't know how much a humble brooch can enhance the beauty.

But the two old ladies tried tirelessly, and he could only boast about his good looks against his will.

After more than 20 minutes, the old lady of the Yu family finally said: "Look at my memory, Xiao Zhuo, the design is ready, take a look, we have actually revised it several times among us, you should be satisfied."

Xu Zhuo didn't care, opened her laptop, found the design drawing and renderings, and looked at them seriously.

He saw the private rooms on the third floor from the lobby on the first floor, and the kitchen layout from the exterior decoration.

actually……

Very satisfied!

This design is great both in terms of functionality and aesthetics.

Xu Zhuo doubted whether the third-ring task given by the dog system was a sub-question.

In order to prevent any mistakes, Xu Zhuo read it again, and even called Chen Guifang to come over, but the couple checked repeatedly and could not find any dissatisfaction with the task.

Is that what the blueprints are for?

Shouldn't it be revised repeatedly, slapping the table and turning faces, and finally both sides take a step back?

It's surprisingly easy.

But after reading the whole drawing, there is nothing wrong with it.

Xu Zhuo even felt that as long as the construction was carried out according to the design drawings, it would definitely become the focus of the entire provincial capital.

After he really couldn't find the problem, Xu Zhuo didn't even look for it.

He said to the old lady at home: "Grandma, this design is really amazing, just follow this."

"No change?"

"No change, it's perfect!"

Both parties are happy.

Xu Zhuo felt that the old lady Yu really designed the hotel in his mind.

And the old lady Yu is also emotional, she has participated in the design of many large buildings, but Sifang Restaurant is the smoothest one.

Next, print out the drawings and let the construction team come in.

Xu Zhuo handed this matter over to Chen Guifang, and he drove back to wait for the harvest.

However, three days later, when Xu Zhuo received a call from Chen Guifang, he realized that things were not that simple.

"What did you say? No decoration company took this job? What's the situation?"

Chapter 651 I Don't Want This Reward

Xu Zhuo pinched the center of his eyebrows, a little confused.

The design drawings were made, but the construction unit could not be found.

Is this a joke?

After careful questioning, Xu Zhuo realized that it wasn't that he couldn't find a decoration company to take the job, but that several decoration companies joined forces to drive up the price.

The storefront designed by Mrs. Yu and her students requires a relatively large amount of work, and also uses a lot of highly technical decoration materials, so the general small decoration team can't afford this kind of work.

Even if she could afford it, Chen Guifang didn't dare to look for them, because if the project of several million was really messed up, the loss would not be small.

There are only a few decoration companies in the provincial capital that are capable of taking on this job.

After they read the design drawings, they moved their minds.

With such a large storefront and such intricate and exquisite design drawings, it must be the owner who is not short of money.

So I want to increase the construction cost.

Chen Guifang found several companies, but they all spoke in the same tone.

First of all, it is difficult, and then I say that my subordinates have a lot of work and need to queue up.

The final construction cost was three million yuan higher than what the old lady Yu expected.

Chen Guifang is not a fool, so naturally she won't be fooled.

So after searching for a few days, this matter was not settled.

"Those decoration companies must have colluded. It's so irritating! But don't worry, it won't delay you."

After finishing speaking, Chen Guifang was about to hang up the phone.

Xu Zhuo asked curiously, "Where is the company that helped me decorate the Sifang Pavilion last year? Aren't you an acquaintance? They also opened their mouths?"

Chen Guifang said helplessly: "At the end of the year, several shareholders of the company turned against each other because of the uneven dividend distribution, and canceled the company, and the people in the company went their separate ways."

Well, it can still be like this.

There are still ten days before the deadline for the third ring task, Xu Zhuo is not in a hurry.

The big deal is that the task rewards for the third ring or even the next few rings are not worth it. You can’t pay a few million more just because of one or two dishes.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Zhuo started to make dry fried bells for the little girl.

Since eating it in Hangzhou, she has eaten it almost every day, and her mouth is about to get angry.

While cooking, Xu Zhuo remembered the flower mounting technique he had learned in Hangzhou.

I wondered whether to buy a set of decoration tools online, and try to improve the appearance of fried sweet potato mash.

This is a job that requires trial and error, and it is estimated that it cannot be done overnight.

So while there is nothing to do now, try more experiments and find a combination of Western-style flower decoration and Chinese-style presentation. Not only should the fried sweet potato mash look good, but it should become the signature dish of the store.

This is not a one-off thing.

However, with the existence of flower mounting skills and the blessing of arranging skills, it should not be very difficult to improve the appearance of sweet potato mash.

When Xu Zhuo finished the fried bells, he just brought them outside for the little girl to eat, when his cell phone rang suddenly.

Opening it, it was a message from Lu Bo.

How did this foreign student who was far away in the United States think of sending himself a message?

Turning on the phone, the message from Lu Bo was very simple.

"A chef in our cafeteria was very interested in watching your cooking video, and kept pestering me to ask about the secrets of cooking Chinese food. I don't understand these, so let him add you on WeChat to chat with you later, what do you think?"

Xu Zhuo casually held the dry fried bell, dipped it in salt and pepper and put it in his mouth, not very interested in this proposal.

Although he has the task of teaching foreigners how to cook Zuo Zongtang's chicken, and he really wants to get the reward of Li Hongzhang's chowder, but Boss Xu has a shortcoming.

He doesn't understand English.

At this moment, the disadvantages of scumbags are reflected.

Back then, he used to use snacks and study hard, even if he was not a complete person, at least he could communicate with foreigners with gestures.

And now, the limited words he knows are also related to game operations.

There is no way to communicate with foreigners.

And foreigners are like a bible when it comes to Chinese.

Xu Zhuo thought for a while before replying: "I don't understand English. If he understands Chinese, it's fine. If he doesn't understand Chinese, then I really can't do anything. How about I publish a more detailed tutorial, and you can follow my instructions. How about doing a good job of labeling in English and letting him learn like a gourd painting?"

Lu Bo was a little speechless: "You don't understand any English? Then where did you get your graduation certificate? Didn't you buy it?"

Xu Zhuo didn't know how to reply to this news.

In desperation, Lu Bo had no choice but to agree to Xu Zhuo's proposal.

Let’s make a detailed tutorial video for the foreigner first, and wait until he has learned General Tso’s chicken before talking about other dishes.

If you still can't learn it, Lu Bo plans to let the chef and Xu Zhuo make a video call when he is not busy in the future, and he can act as an interpreter on the side.
