Siheyuan: Started in 1950, third-level cook

Master Liang fell silent after hearing this.

The business in the store has indeed not been as good as before recently.

Although a 30% reduction may not sound like a lot, it has a huge impact on the restaurant.

A small stir-fry stall could actually affect Fengdeng Building. Thinking of this, Master Liang couldn't help but look at Chen Jun again.

At this time, Chen Jun was waving the spatula vigorously. His movements were skillful and he controlled the heat very well. He was indeed a rare talent.

For the sake of the store's business, Master Liang nodded and planned to call Chen Jun over for a chat after he finished his work.

So Manager Liu and he ate and chatted until after one in the afternoon.

At this time, the vegetables on the stall were almost sold out, and Chen Jun sat on a chair and chatted with the uncle who was selling candied haws next to him.

This old man was quite interesting. He exchanged the candied haws for some braised meat, intending to take it home and drink it with wine.

Chen Jun hadn't eaten candied haws for a long time. He found it surprisingly sweet and sour, really good.

"Chen Jun, Chen Jun, come here for a moment."

Seeing that there were not many people at the stall, Master Liang waved to Chen Jun.

Chen Jun glanced at them and didn't rush over. Instead, he finished the candied haws in his hand, looked at the little kid in open-crotch pants jumping in front of him, and inserted the stick into the crack of the kid's butt.

This little brat is the old man’s grandson. He has been following the old man out to sell candied haws these days and has become familiar with them.

The little brat looked back at the crack of his butt, then ran to the old man crying.

"Grandpa~Grandpa~~"

Pulling a chair over and sitting down, Chen Jun looked at Master Liang and Shopkeeper Liu, and asked with a smile, "Did you two enjoy your meal? Have you paid? If not, it doesn't matter. Consider it my treat."

After saying this, Master Liang swallowed the words back.

He glanced at Shopkeeper Liu with some annoyance.

Use your eyes to question him why he hasn't paid yet?

This stir-fry stall is different from a restaurant. Generally, you pay first and then eat.

Otherwise, the stall will be in a mess and it will be easy for orders to be lost.

Setting up a stall is a small business, and you can suffer a big loss if you only take a few orders.

Shopkeeper Liu smiled awkwardly, took out some money from his pocket, counted it and put it on the table.

He originally thought that if Chen Jun was willing to return to Fengdeng Tower, the money for today's meal could be saved.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jun did not follow the routine and asked about the meal money right away, which disrupted the rhythm of their conversation.

"Then I'll accept it. You can just treat me to a meal some other day." Chen Jun smiled and took the money.

"Yeah, no problem." Master Liang didn't notice anything wrong and agreed immediately. Then he went straight to the point and asked, "Chen Jun, I didn't expect you to be a good cook. Why didn't I see you show off your skills at Fengdeng Tower before?"

Chen Jun smiled and waved his hands: "No, no, my level is just enough to make a living, how dare I show off my skills in the kitchen."

Forehead......

Master Liang suddenly didn't know what to say.

Your skills are not good enough, so those people in the kitchen should pack up and go home.

Seeing that Master Liang was so tongue-tied, Manager Liu quickly said, "Chen Jun, are you willing to go back to Fengdeng Tower? It's so hard for you to set up a stall in the wind and rain. It's better to come back to our Fengdeng Tower. You can have face and make money."

Call yourself back to Fengdeng Tower?

Chen Jun was not too surprised. The stir-fry stall business was so good, it was only a matter of time before these two people came to find him.

"How much money does Manager Liu plan to charge me?" Chen Jun asked casually.

"Fifty. I'll give you a salary of fifty yuan per month. If you think it's too low, I'll go to Mr. Wang to apply for it." Shopkeeper Liu said generously.

His target price is seventy dollars.

But when recruiting employees, you definitely can't just give them the details right away. You have to understate the price first and then wait for Chen Jun to raise the price.

"Fifty? That's indeed a lot." Chen Jun nodded.

Shopkeeper Liu raised his eyebrows and looked at Master Liang proudly.

Master Liang also grinned and sent him away with fifty yuan.

But just when the two of them were happy, Chen Jun shook his head again: "I really want to go back to work, but unfortunately my stir-fry stall has already been set up. It cost a lot of money just to buy these things. If I go to work, all this money will be wasted."

"Oh, they are just some pots and pans. We at Fengdeng Tower will reimburse you for them." Shopkeeper Liu said generously.

"I'm so sorry. These things cost me more than a thousand yuan."

"Mr. Duo? More than a thousand?"

Shopkeeper Liu was so frightened that he almost jumped off his stool.

It cost less than a thousand yuan to replace all the tables, chairs, benches, pots, pans, and utensils in Fengdeng Building.

You spent more than a thousand on this stir-fry stall?

Who are you trying to trick!

Shopkeeper Liu felt that Chen Jun was asking for too much and was trying to take advantage of Feng Denglou.

Chen Jun didn't explain much, he just stood up and took the kitchen knife.

"I asked a master to forge this kitchen knife. It can cut hair and iron like mud. This knife alone is worth a thousand dollars."

As he spoke, Chen Jun casually lifted up Manager Liu's cotton jacket and lightly scratched it with a knife.

The corner of the clothes that was being pulled was pulled off smoothly.

Master Liang was stunned.

He is with the kitchen knife every day, so he can naturally tell that this kitchen knife is of top quality.

Looks ordinary, but sharp and unreasonable.

"Hiss, such a good knife is hard to come by!" Master Liang said with some envy.

But Shopkeeper Liu was a little upset.

It’s a good knife, so what? Why did you cut my clothes?

This is a cotton-padded jacket, very expensive.

But before Manager Liu could get mad, Chen Jun spoke sincerely, "Manager Liu, you are such a nice person. You are willing to reimburse me for more than a thousand yuan."

"Um, when will you pay me? I can go back to work at our restaurant sooner."

to reimburse?

Report a fart!

Where can I get reimbursement of more than a thousand dollars?

If I go to Wang Dongjia to ask for money, I will be kicked out of Fengdeng Tower the moment I open my mouth.

Moreover, Manager Liu also realized that Chen Jun was probably making fun of them.

I really want to go back to work at Fengdeng Building. I won’t ask the restaurant for reimbursement!

"More than a thousand yuan is too much. The boss will never agree to it." Shopkeeper Liu pinched his clothes with heartache and said unhappily.

Chen Jun said with a look of regret: "Alas, there is nothing I can do. I can only guard this small stall for now."

"You two eat first, I'll go get busy."

After saying that, Chen Jun was about to stand up.

The little kid who had just been wearing open-crotch pants was still crying, and the old man hadn't even managed to comfort him yet. Chen Jun felt that he needed to take action.

Chef Liang also felt a little regretful, thinking that the kitchen had lost a great general.

Manager Liu quickly grabbed Chen Jun and asked, "Chen Jun, since you don't want to go back to Fengdeng Tower, can you set up your stall somewhere else?"

"The business in my store is not affected... but our two stores are too close to each other. I'm afraid it will affect your business."

Chen Jun raised his eyebrows when he heard that, and smiled as he extended five fingers to Shopkeeper Liu.
