Xi Chuan worked in a five-star hotel for half a month, and the manager was very satisfied with his performance, and promised to fight for an increase of 8000 yuan for him next month.Before Xi Chuan was overjoyed, the next day the manager told him that he didn't have to go to work, saying that it was the owner of the restaurant.Xi Chuan was puzzled: "Why? What didn't I do well?"

The manager was also a little helpless: "It's not your problem, you have done a good job. But the boss wants to fire an employee, and I can't help it. You go to settle the wages."

For the first time Xi Chuan experienced the moodiness of the human heart, and also the first time he experienced the power of power, if you let you go, you can leave, if you want to stay, you don’t need a reason, the boss has the final say, it seems that you still want to be your own boss.

Xi Chuan became unemployed again, and the former store manager of Xiaoyayuan called him and asked him if he had found a job. It's the ghost of Liu."

Xi Chuan couldn't help getting angry: "Is the Liu surname crazy? Why can't he get along with me?"

The store manager said: "Maybe I'm afraid of Mr. Sun, so I'm on guard against you. Why don't you come to my store? I'm currently working as a store manager in a store in Nancheng, and there is a shortage of people. The salary may be a little less than that of Xiaoyayuan, but I can definitely cover you."

Xi Chuan directly refused: "No, it's too far away."

The store manager said: "Why are you so far away? You haven't married or bought a house. You can just come here and live here. There are also dormitories in the store."

Xi Chuan said: "I really can't go. I'm taking Sun Youchen with me now. He's still in school. What if I leave him as a child? I'd better find something here."

The store manager sighed: "Yes, I almost forgot this. That's fine, you can figure it out for yourself. If you need my help, just tell me, and I can help as much as I can."

"Thank you Brother Zhang." Xi Chuan expressed his gratitude sincerely.

Sun Youchen just finished class at noon that day, and received a call from Xi Chuan: "I'll be waiting for you at the school gate." He was startled, and ran out quickly. Isn't it working time now? Why did he come to the school to find him? Something might have happened, but he ran there out of breath, only to find that Xi Chuan had just brought him food.Sun Youchen gasped for breath for a while, calming down his beating heart: "Why do you have time to deliver food to me? You don't go to work, so you have a rest today?" Sun Youchen was a little confused, he didn't remember that Xi Chuan had a rest today.

Xi Chuan pretended to be nonchalant: "I plan to find another job."

"Ah?" Sun Youchen was taken aback, "What's wrong?"

Xi Chuan smiled: "I didn't do well there, so I quit my job. Don't worry, I'll find a better job. If it doesn't work, I'll set up a stall to sell pot kui. I see the pot next to your school. Kui’s business is pretty good, so it’s not necessarily less than me.”

Sun Youchen smiled unconcernedly. Although he had thought about it before, he felt a bit bitter in his heart after hearing him say that: "You will definitely find a job."

Xi Chuan smiled and patted his head: "Of course. Okay, let's go eat, I'm looking for a job."

Sun Youchen felt a little sad. He didn't even have a good appetite after eating the meals Xi Chuan made himself. Xi Chuan was so nice that he could let him quit his job. He must have been wronged, but he refused to tell him what wronged him. Own.Sun Youchen felt that he was very weak and incompetent, why couldn't he act a little stronger, so that Xi Chuan felt that he was a person who could handle things, so he was willing to share things with himself.

He took out his mobile phone and tapped some words: [Brother Chuan, although I don't know what happened, I really want to share some for you. If you feel sad, you can also tell me.We are family, aren't we? ] After typing, he deleted "family" and replaced it with "friends". After reading it twice, he was sure that there was no problem, so he sent it.

After about an hour, Sun Youchen was about to go to class before he received Xi Chuan's reply: [I was busy just now, so I didn't have time to reply to your message.It's all right, I'm just not happy working there, I've found a job. 】

Sun Youchen's phone almost slid down, and he couldn't believe his eyes: 【Really?So fast? 】

Xi Chuan replied: [Of course it's true, I'm off to work, and I'll bring you dinner tonight.Go learn it. 】

Sun Youchen was a little puzzled, what kind of job did he find, and he could deliver meals to himself, he sent a message to ask, but Xi Chuan didn't reply to him anymore.

Xi Chuan's new job can almost be said to have been picked up.After delivering the meal to Sun Youchen, he rode a moped and wandered slowly in the streets to see if there were any restaurants recruiting workers. Liberty, wait until Sun Youchen finishes the college entrance examination before making plans, anyway, it will be more than two months.

In March, the spring of Rongcheng is getting stronger, the sunshine is very provocative, like the eyes of lovers, warm and affectionate, which fits very well with the lazy and leisurely Chengdu temperament.If you don't worry about your livelihood, this kind of weather can really bring you an excellent mood.Xi Chuan stopped the car and went to a small shop by the road to buy water. He took a sip of the water when he saw a "recruitment notice" posted on the glass door of a small restaurant next door called "Eat Good". Xi Chuan couldn't help it. Zhu took a second look - "urgently recruiting a chef, male or female, no age limit, the only requirement is to cook delicious food, salary negotiable", this is the first time he has seen such a casual recruitment notice.Xi Chuan thought for a while, he was fine anyway, so why not go and see what's going on.

So Xi Chuan went in, the shop was very small, there were only four tables inside, and there was no one except the front desk, when he opened the door and entered, the wind chimes rang at the door, and the young woman who was busy at the front desk raised her head and said, "Welcome Come and sit wherever you want, what would you like to eat? There is a menu on the wall."

Xi Chuan looked at the other party's head dyed in various colors, and said in his heart that he was quite fashionable: "I don't eat. I saw that you wrote that you are recruiting chefs, and I want to ask how to recruit."

When the other party heard this, he raised his head and took another look, and then said, "Okay, wait a moment." She tapped on the computer, started to order, and then said to Xi Chuan with the menu: "Come with me, first Fry two dishes and let me see."

Xi Chuan was a little overwhelmed, shouldn't he discuss the conditions before cooking: "Shouldn't we talk first?"

"Did you see what I wrote in the recruitment notice? The only requirement is to cook delicious food. If you can't pass this test, you can talk about everything! Done, everything is negotiable." The woman looked at the menu in her hand and said, "Do One twice-cooked pork and one fish-flavored shredded pork."

Xi Chuan thought that this would not be free labor by himself, but when he thought that he usually had to cook for interviews, and this was just an extra fry, he no longer hesitated, rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen.In the kitchen, a man of medium build was cooking. When he heard someone come in, he said without raising his head, "These servings are ready, you can take them out." He was speaking in Northeast dialect.

Xi Chuan looked at the fast food boxes on the desk, and instantly realized that they were for takeaway.The woman who accompanied Xi Chuan said: "They haven't come back yet, I'll deliver it later. I found a helper for you, and a handsome guy came for an interview. Handsome guy, come cook two dishes. We're helping the kitchen deliver the food. You prepare it yourself. Call me when you are done frying." After finishing speaking, he took those lunch boxes and went out.

Hearing this, the cooking man turned his head to look at Xi Chuan, was taken aback for a moment, and said, "That's fine, you can figure it out yourself."

When Xi Chuan saw that the other party had set up two pots to fry vegetables at the same time, he felt a little itch, so he took out a piece of pork belly from the freezer. The Northeast Man turned his head and glanced at him: "The twice-cooked pork is ready, it has been cut, and it can be fried directly."

Hearing this, Xi Chuan took a look at the twice-cooked pork that had already been cut. He was still busy with himself. He cut the whole piece of meat into three small pieces, added onion and ginger and steamed it in a steamer. s material.The man from the Northeast murmured dissatisfiedly while he was busy: "Is this here to embroider? Cheng Zi asked someone to come over."

Xi Chuan ignored him and continued to work on his own. When he was a chef in a restaurant, he could use the ingredients prepared by the chef, but today he came for an interview, so he couldn’t just use it casually. After finishing the preparations, seeing that a pot was empty, I picked up the spatula, quickly filled the pot with water, and started frying fish-flavored shredded pork. Because it was not a kitchen I was familiar with, many things were not in hand, so the action was a bit slow, but It's fast enough. After a few minutes, the fish-flavored shredded pork is out of the pan.

Seeing that the meat had not been steamed, Xi Chuan came out with fried fish-flavored shredded pork: "The fish-flavored shredded pork is ready."

At this time, a young boy came in from the outside and saw Xi Chuan stunned for a moment: "New here? Sister Cheng, I'm back."

The woman with colorful hair said, "Just one dish? How about another one?"

Xi Chuan said, "There's one more thing to wait for, it hasn't been made yet."

The woman took out her chopsticks, picked up a piece of shredded meat, put it in her mouth, chewed it, couldn't help but put another chopstick into her mouth, and then nodded: "Not bad, Xiao Fang, you can try it too."

The young boy who came in just now took a pair of chopsticks and picked up a dish: "Wow, master. Where did you find it?"

"I ran into the door by myself. It's just you, hurry up and cook, this is a new menu." The smile lines appeared in the corners of the woman's eyes, thinking that she might have found a treasure.

Seeing that she didn't even wait for him to make twice-cooked pork, Xi Chuan asked, "Am I qualified?"

"Yes, you're qualified, I've hired you." The woman nodded.

Xi Chuan said, "Then how is the salary calculated?"

The woman rubbed her chin and said, "Do you have a place to live?"

Xi Chuan nodded: "Yes."

The woman stretched out her finger and gestured: "Two meals are included, six thousand a month."

A small shop can open up to [-] yuan, and the salary is not bad, but Xi Chuan still said: "I want [-] yuan." He didn't discuss the working hours with the other party, and he estimated that the time would not be short, but thinking that he was here When I go to work, I can cook lunch and dinner for Sun Youchen, which can be regarded as a kind of welfare, so I don't care about the time.

The woman frowned and looked at Xi Chuan: "We'll talk about it after you've cooked twice-cooked pork."

Xi Chuan turned around and went into the kitchen. Twice-cooked pork had already been steamed, and it was almost ripe. He took it out to cool and sliced ​​it, skimmed off the excess oil, and then stir-fried it with other ingredients.

During this process, the woman and Xiaofang followed him to watch him cook, and they couldn't wait to pick up a piece after it was out of the pot. The meat was soft and tender, fat but not greasy, and the aftertaste was long. I just felt that the twice-cooked pork I had eaten for so many years It's free.The woman immediately made a decision: "[-] is [-]! We will keep this twice-cooked pork for ourselves. Now we are officially going to work, go to work, the menu is here, and make another twice-cooked pork."

Hearing what the woman said, the northeastern man couldn't help but pick up a piece of twice-cooked pork, and then he showed a look of surprise on his face, and couldn't help but take another look at Xi Chuan.

The woman with colorful hair carried two lunch boxes and said to Xiao Fang, "Xiao Fang, this is an order from the Internet cafe opposite, you can send it over there."

Xiao Fang said to the woman with colorful hair, "Sister Cheng, can I deliver food after eating?"

The woman with colorful hair waved her hands and said, "Hurry up to deliver the food, and you can still catch up to eat when you come back. Besides, this handsome guy will work in our store in the future, and you will often be able to eat his dishes in the future."

Xiao Fang reluctantly ate another piece of twice-cooked pork, and hurried to work.

Xi Chuan just went straight to work. When Sun Youchen sent us a WeChat message, he was busy cooking. Although almost no one came to eat in this small shop, there were a lot of takeaways. Most of them were students from the university next door. It was 01:30, so I was free to look at my phone, and I sent a message back to Sun Youchen, telling him that I had found a job, but before I had time to say anything, the proprietress received another order: "Handsome, let's cook, Gong Save a piece of chicken."

Xi Chuan had no choice but to put away his mobile phone, and decided to have a good chat with the proprietress about working hours when he was done with work.

After two o'clock, the phone calls for ordering food finally disappeared, and the proprietress was free, sitting behind the glass door in the sun with the orange cat in the small shop next door, and stroking the cat every now and then, looking very comfortable.Xi Chuan walked over: "Madam Boss."

The proprietress raised her head and looked at Xi Chuan with a smile: "You can just call me Sister Cheng. Sit down and talk, what's your name, how old are you? Do you have a health certificate? If not, go get one."

Xi Chuan nodded: "Yes, it was done at the beginning of the month. My name is Xi Chuan, and I am 25 this year."

"Xi Chuan? Okay, give me a copy of your ID card. My name is Tian Cheng. You can call me Sister Cheng. I'm the owner of this store. Tell me about your work. You've seen it. My business is in the store. It is mainly aimed at the students nearby, and the usual working hours are the busiest during meal time. We do not sell breakfast, go to work at 10:30 am, usually rest until 04 pm, go to work at 30:[-] pm, and leave work at [-] pm, as for rest Time, I will arrange three days for you in a month, can you accept it?"

Xi Chuan thought for a while and nodded: "Yes. But I have a condition. My younger brother is studying in the nearby Linyin Middle School. I want to cook lunch and dinner for him in the store. I can buy vegetables myself."

Tian Cheng looked at Xi Chuan and rolled his eyes: "Why don't you cook for us, and I can let your brother eat here for free. But we don't deliver food, so he has to come here by himself."

Xi Chuan listened, then nodded with a smile: "Okay. I'll pick him up tonight and bring him over to get his way."

"Yes." Tian Cheng raised her cheeks and looked sideways at Xi Chuan, "Your younger brother goes to school in Linyin, and your family is local?"

Xi Chuan said, "That's right."

"Then your brother is very good, he actually got into Lin Yin." Tian Cheng said in admiration.

"Well, he's not bad." Xi Chuan couldn't help laughing when he thought of Sun Youchen.

Tian Cheng asked, "Where did you learn cooking?"

Xi Chuan said, "A restaurant."

"The craftsmanship is good, it should be a big restaurant, right? Why would you think of coming to work in our small restaurant? Are you afraid that your craftsmanship will be buried?" Tian Cheng is 120% satisfied with Xi Chuan's craftsmanship.

Xi Chuan smiled: "You still get paid here."
