He was betrayed at the beginning, from a cake seller to a wealthy person

After the contract was signed, Lu Yan remembered the person Chen Xinghai had mentioned at the beginning and couldn't help but ask: "You said you wanted to recommend someone else at the beginning, who do you want to recommend?"

Chen Xinghai: "Xia Hefeng. He is the former master of Xiangyun Tower."

Lu Yan repeated: "Former master?"

"Shopkeeper Lu doesn't know something. This Xia Hefeng is Master Liu's man, and he wants to push me down." Chen Xinghai explained: "But didn't something happen to Master Liu? The boss was changed to Mrs. Liu again. Madam. I cleaned up Master Liu’s people, found a new master to take his place, found a problem and drove him away.”

Lu Yan suddenly realized: "I know who it is. I went to Xiangyun Tower for dinner that day. Many old diners said that the chef has been changed and the quality of the dishes is no longer good. Is it him?"

Chen Xinghai smiled awkwardly: "His level is indeed not very good, but I think it's mainly because he didn't learn from a serious master. I think Master Liu came to him mainly to find an excuse to get rid of our wages. Then there's him. I don’t know where I learned this from, but he often imitates what you make.”

Lu Yan nodded: "I've heard about this. I heard from diners that the quality is not that good?"

Chen Xinghai continued: "So he is a wild man. I think he is all self-taught, which is very evil. I think if his cooking style is all self-taught, he is still talented. He needs to have a serious chef. The leader will definitely be much better than he is now, and he also likes to learn from you, so wouldn't it be perfect to be your apprentice?"

Lu Yan's heart also moved. It took her a long time to train a Vernal Equinox. This is the premise that Vernal Equinox is particularly talented and can learn everything well. There is no way to teach someone like Xu's Huang Hui in the Winter Solstice. I don't dare to watch her do it every day. Get started, no need to waste time trying this. It can be seen that it is not easy to receive a suitable apprentice, and she is destined to make her business bigger and bigger. Only by cultivating apprentices and accepting apprentices can she achieve the state she envisioned.

Lu Yan was a little hesitant: "You also know that I am indeed in need of people. If he is willing to follow me, I will definitely welcome him. But he is different from you. If he wants to learn from me, he must come and be my apprentice. , it’s impossible for him to be the chef when he comes up. He used to be a master chef in a restaurant, is he willing?"

Chen Xinghai also hesitated. In fact, he didn't know Xia Hefeng very well, but he felt that this person was a bit stubborn in many cases, and he was not sure whether he would care about this. He thought for a moment and said, "Let's do this, Shopkeeper Lu. He's going to treat me to a drink tonight. I'll mention this to him then and see what his reaction is. I'll tell you if there's any drama."

Lu Yan was overjoyed: "That's a great relationship! I'll wait for your news!"

In the evening, Xia Hefeng came to see Chen Xinghai for a drink.

Chen Xinghai thought it was easier to talk at home, so he didn't go out with him. He cooked a few dishes, made a few bottles of wine, and drank in his courtyard.

The two of them were changing glasses and were slightly drunk. Chen Xinghai asked Xia Hefeng: "You are no longer working in Xiangyun Tower. What are your plans in the future?"

Xia Hefeng blanked his eyes for a moment and said, "I originally set up a stall on the street to sell food. If it doesn't work, I'll go back."

Chen Xinghai understood: "Did the food you sold at the stall before be the same as those sold by Lu Ji? Is that how the young master discovered you?"

Xia Hefeng smiled innocently: "Yes. I liked Lu Ji, so I wondered if I could do the same thing. Anyway, I set up a stall by myself. Later, the young master found me and said that I would pay him every month. I had three taels of silver and asked me to work as a chef in Xiangyun Tower. I was very happy when I heard that and I immediately agreed."

Xia Hefeng added: "I always had trouble with you before, I'm sorry. Actually, it's not that I hate you, it's because one day you saw me finishing cooking and asked me if I hadn't learned from the master? I really hadn't learned from the master. I thought you didn’t like me, so I always wanted to suppress you..."

Chen Xinghai clinked glasses with him: "I'm not looking down on you. I used to have a tendency to be a teacher. I see you have a lot of things that I want to talk about you. I won't mention the past things. I mainly want to ask you today, are you willing? Don’t you want to learn from a serious master?”

Xia Hefeng was stunned for a moment: "A serious master? I'm so old, do people want me? Is the apprenticeship fee expensive?"

Chen Xinghai changed the subject: "You said you like Lu Ji's food, right?"

Xia Hefeng nodded: "I like it very much."

Chen Xinghai: "If I say that Lu Ji's chef wants to take you on as his apprentice, would you be willing? The apprenticeship fee shouldn't be expensive, and you may not even have to pay it."

Xia Hefeng was stunned by the huge surprise: "What did you say? Lu Ji??? Oh my God!! I'm not dreaming!!!"

Chen Xinghai smiled: "You can do it if you want. If you want, you can go to Lu Ji and talk to the shopkeeper tomorrow. Shopkeeper Lu is a neat person, and there is indeed a shortage of people now. We should be able to make a decision soon."

Xia Hefeng's eyes were filled with excitement: "Brother Chen, I don't even know how to thank you!"

Chen Xinghai waved his hand: "I also plan to leave Xiangyun Tower and go to Lu Ji."

Xia Hefeng was very happy: "That's a good relationship. I thought Xiangyun Tower was going to die a long time ago. It would be better if I left as soon as possible."

Chen Xinghai was surprised: "Do you still feel this way?"

"Although the young master has been kind to me, and without him I wouldn't be where I am today, I still have to say that you are much better than me. Xiangyun Tower has been going downhill since the young master asked me to take your place. " Xia Hefeng said.

Chen Xinghai nodded in agreement. The reason why Xiangyun Tower can rise is because the master has faith. Young master and madam, no one thinks about the inner model of profit in an industry. They only want to fight for power and eliminate dissidents. Xiangyun Tower is just a tool in their hands.
