Culinary Specialization through Farming

A competition seems to only make two bowls of noodles, but it takes a long time.

Everyone was still talking about the delicious fried noodles, but Boss Lu had already calmed down the depression in his heart.

At this moment, he called Chen Yan to stop, causing everyone to turn their attention to Boss Lu.

The clerk next to him thought Boss Lu was furious and wanted to comfort him, but Boss Lu pushed him away.

He walked up to Chen Yan, the brother in front of him was still very young and had a good appearance, the man beside him was also tall and handsome, they were a perfect match when they stood together.

Boss Lu looked at Chen Yan carefully at this time, and the anger in his eyes was gradually replaced by appreciation.

A young brother has a skill that has been immersed in facial expressions for decades, and he can still be flattered or humiliated when praised by others, which makes Boss Lu have to think highly of him.

Chen Yan was quite dissatisfied with being scrutinized like this. Since the other party just lost to him in the competition, he would not laugh at the other party. After all, he also took advantage of some things that others did not know.

"Boss Lu, what else do you need?"

Seeing him not speaking for a long time, Chen Yan could only ask aloud.

"Little brother, can't you afford to lose?" Uncle Zhou saw him blocking Chen Yan's path, so he stepped forward a few steps and stood beside Boss Lu.Uncle Zhou was a little taller than Boss Lu, and the two stood opposite each other. Uncle Zhou gave him a sideways look, guarding against his sudden attack.

Boss Lu raised his eyes and gave Uncle Zhou a cold look, then turned his gaze to Chen Yan.

"My little brother is very skilled. This pair of skills is more than a little bit better than that of old brother Zhou."

While Boss Lu praised Chen Yan, he also belittled Uncle Zhou.

Uncle Zhou snorted coldly and said, "That's right, it's called blue out of blue and better than blue."

"The young man has a good mind and is worthy of praise. You can't do it yourself, you bad old man. You need someone to help you to win me. It's better not to jump out and embarrass yourself."

Boss Lu's down-to-earth sarcasm, Uncle Zhou almost raised his hand to beat someone, while Amo Zhou hurriedly grabbed Uncle Zhou.

"Why do you need to be as knowledgeable as him?" Zhou Ahma pulled Uncle Zhou to comfort him, and glared at Boss Lu with dissatisfaction.

Seeing that Uncle Zhou was very angry, Chen Yan had no choice but to take up the quarrel: "If Boss Lu just praised the kid, that kid is very honored." He expressed his gratitude to Boss Lu politely.

"Brother Yan, ignore him, go and have a good time in my noodle shop." Zhou Shushun resigned himself, and did not forget to give Boss Lu a hard look.

Chen Yan, who was so forthright and would jump when he was provoked, wanted to laugh.

"Brother Zhou wants to go back to your little noodle shop. Go back. I still have something to discuss with my brother." Boss Lu's self-cultivation is not bad, even if he lost face to a junior, he still treated him well. Chen Yan was very polite.

"What is there to discuss?" Uncle Zhou asked dissatisfied.

"This matter has nothing to do with you, Old Brother Zhou." Boss Lu replied, and gestured to Chen Yan, "Sit down, brother, how about we have a good talk?"

Boss Lu's sudden change of attitude made Chen Yan secretly puzzled. Seeing the person in front of him politely invite him in, he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

Li Maoshan saw Chen Yan's hesitation, so he opened his mouth and said to Boss Lu, "Let's just tell Boss Lu what's going on."

Boss Lu looked up at this tall and handsome man. Seeing that Chen Yan seemed to be very obedient to him, he already knew the relationship between their identities.

He didn't care about Li Maoshan's indifferent attitude towards him, but instead reminded them: "It's inconvenient to stand and talk at the door like this, you two should come in with me, sit down and have a cup of tea."

As soon as Boss Lu finished speaking, some clerks began to order tea.

Faced with his invitation, Chen Yan tugged on Li Maoshan's sleeve, and said to Boss Lu, "Since Boss Lu is kind, we juniors should obey."

Under the puzzled gazes of Uncle Zhou and the others, Chen Yan dragged Li Maoshan back to the shop.

The table was cleared away, and as soon as the two sat down, someone came over with tea and pastries.

Boss Lu greeted them, let the two of them do whatever they wanted, and told the shop assistants to lure out the people who were watching the excitement, and closed the shop directly without doing business.

Uncle Zhou and Amo Zhou will not leave now, nor will they not leave.The two hesitated for a while, then sat down at the table.

Boss Lu didn't care about the two of them, took a sip of tea, and said to Chen Yan: "The little old man lost to the little brother today, and he is convinced. As for the bet, he is willing to gamble and admit defeat. Brother Zhou, you can rest assured Keep selling your noodles."

Uncle Zhou immediately raised his chin and hummed twice.

"My little brother, you have a good job. The old man has an idea. I wonder if you are interested?" Boss Lu pointed his words at Chen Yan again, threw an olive branch, and under Chen Yan's puzzled eyes, he continued: "My little brother This kind of craftsmanship should be more than just a few unique skills, right? I wonder if you are interested in opening a shop?"

Chen Yan was startled when he heard the words, and then asked, "What does Boss Lu mean by that?"

"You see, you have a craft, and I have a shop. Although I lost the competition, the little old man will not sell fried noodles, but he can sell other things." Boss Lu looked at Chen Yan with a hint, and made a wishful slap ring.

Uncle Zhou understood it as soon as he heard it, and couldn't help cursing angrily: "Little brother, you really know how to plan, this idea is all on Brother Yan."

"Why, old brother Zhou is still in charge of people's business?" Boss Lu looked at Uncle Zhou with a half-smile, "Although people call you uncle, after all, you are just uncle, old brother Zhou is a bit lenient."

Uncle Zhou, who was blocked by these words, got stuck halfway, neither up nor down, and was held back by Zhou Amo, so he had to shut up embarrassingly.

After listening to Boss Lu's words, Chen Yan lowered his head and began to ponder.

He wanted to open a store not only because he was in this business, but also because the family was short of money, and it didn't feel good to be in debt.

At the beginning, when he handed over the recipe for Zha Jiang Noodles to Uncle Zhou, it was also with the idea of ​​saving money before starting a small business.Hearing the invitation from Boss Lu at this moment, Chen Yan was really moved.

He thought for a while, then looked at Li Maoshan again.

Li Maoshan could see his intention, so he grabbed his hand and said softly: "You can make up your own mind."

Chen Yan still couldn't make a decision, so he could only discuss it with Boss Lu and go back and think about it before making an answer.

After leaving from Boss Lu, Uncle Zhou entertained the two of them to a noodle restaurant.

"It's late, I'll get you two bowls of noodles."

Uncle Zhou confessed, and dragged Zhou Amo into the kitchen.

"What are you pulling me in for?"

Zhou Ah was still very curious about Chen Yan's thoughts, and was about to ask, but was pulled in by Uncle Zhou, so she was a little dissatisfied.

"You go and get some money, a lot of fried noodles have been sold during this time, we should also give the money to Brother Yan and the others."

Uncle Zhou confessed, but saw Zhou Ama standing still and looking at him, even winking at him.

"What are you doing?" Uncle Zhou pushed him and urged, "Go quickly, don't make people wait."

"I'm waiting for your face." Seeing that he was completely out of line with her thoughts, Zhou Ahma frowned secretly angrily.He took two steps, then turned back and called Uncle Zhou, "I said, old man, how much money are you going to give them?"

"Didn't I just tell you before, why did you forget." Uncle Zhou said something disgusting, and in exchange for Zhou Ama's stare.

"I said why are you so stupid." Ah Zhou walked up to Uncle Zhou angrily, and said angrily, "Look at Lao Lu, if he loses, he immediately pulls up his brother, look at you again, what's wrong with you?" A few taels of silver, as a beggar."

Uncle Zhou scratched his head inexplicably when he saw his wife accusing him suddenly of a violent temper.

"It's so stupid, no wonder you've been in this small noodle shop for decades." Seeing that Uncle Zhou couldn't turn the corner, Zhou Ahma sighed and shook her head.

"I don't like to hear your words." Uncle Zhou pretended to be angry, and then hooked Zhou Amo's shoulders, "My little noodle restaurant raised you fat and white, how wonderful. This store Small is a little small, I am also afraid that you will be tired. Small, you can relax, money, it is good to earn as much as you can. The most important thing is to be happy. "

"Happy." Zhou Amo curled her lips, "Then you don't see that I am unhappy now?"

"Why are you unhappy?" Uncle Zhou was a little puzzled, "Didn't we just win the competition, you were so excited just now, what's going on now?"

Uncle Zhou asked, but he saw that Zhou Ama became more and more unhappy.He had to ponder for a while, and then suddenly realized.

"Are you doing this because of Brother Yan?" Uncle Zhou said, "Old Lu can see Brother Yan, that's because he has eyes. Don't say, I want to beat Brother Yan for showing his hands." idea."

"Then I just said so much, why didn't you react?" Zhou Ama threw his hand away, "I asked you to pay more money to lure Brother Yan to us. The money is booming and the business is booming."

"You, you just think too much." Uncle Zhou laughed, and he said soothingly, "Da Shan and Brother Yan have their own ideas, and we elders, even if we want to, don't interfere with their decisions at will. The conditions given by Lao Lu are not bad, is it possible that you still want me to pay more money for brother Yan to make noodles for us?"

Seeing that Zhou Ah was about to nod, Uncle Zhou hurriedly said: "Not to mention how prosperous the business is, but to talk about our original intention of opening this noodle restaurant back then. We just wanted to live a safe and stable life for the couple. It is a good thing to have more money, but There is a lot of money, and there is a lot of right and wrong. Just when the business is booming, you have to start worrying about other things, why bother. Isn’t it good for us to live a small life like this.”

Uncle Zhou's words also brought back Zhou Ah's memories of the past.

When this noodle shop was just opened, they were also distressed because they could not sell noodles, and they were also ecstatic because they sold the first bowl.For so many years, although the noodle shop is still so big, it also carries many memories.

"Hmph, you're the only one with a sharp mouth." Zhou Ahma couldn't help but rage when she recalled the past, "I'm going to get the silver, so you go downstairs quickly. Remember to add more eggs, brother Yan has worked hard."

"Okay." Uncle Zhou replied with a smile, and went to the kitchen.

In the lobby, Chen Yan sat silently for a long time before he came to his senses.

"Brother Shan."

"Ah."

Chen Yan settled down, looked up at Li Maoshan, under Li Maoshan's gentle gaze, he said heavily: "I want to make money."
