Food Tycoon

Ah Hai was right, Yu did not sleep much in the middle of the night before the road, thinking about the safety of Ah Hai and the store, he woke up with a start when he closed his eyes.It wasn't until I received a call from Ah Hai that a big stone in my heart fell to the ground.But then I couldn’t sleep peacefully like what Ah Hai said, and there was another kind of worry. Is Ah Hai really okay? Don’t just report the good news and not the bad news. At that time, I should have answered the mouse’s call, at least to verify .Thinking of this, I couldn't sleep anymore.

Yu Lu was half asleep and half awake until dawn, he quickly got up, washed his face with cold water, and dragged Yu Bing out, before leaving, he still didn't forget to bring A Hai the toiletries.Seeing my own tricycle downstairs, I was stunned for a moment, then realized again, and drove the tricycle to the store.

Ah Hai fell into a deep sleep. It was almost four o'clock when he came back from the police station, and he didn't sleep for a few hours all night. The morning was the best time to sleep, and he was still awake when he was on the way.Before the store door was opened, Yu Lu took a look outside, and it seemed that there was no damage. When he closed the shutter, he found that it opened more smoothly than usual, and the noise was not too loud, as if it had been oiled.

Yu Lu pushed open the glass door inside, and the inside seemed normal, not messy.Yu Bing has already found A Hai: "Abo, Uncle A Hai is here."

Ah Hai heard voices and opened his eyes: "Ah Bing, are you here?"

Yu Lu poked his head in from outside the counter: "You sleep here?"

Ah Hai yawned: "Are you here?"

Yu looked him up and down on the road: "Are you okay?"

Ah Hai smiled: "I'm fine."

"What the hell happened last night?"

Ah Hai sat up: "The one surnamed Sun called someone and planned to set fire to the kitchen, but I caught him on the spot."

Yu Lu opened his eyes wide: "He wants to burn down our shop?" He said and ran to the kitchen.

"That's what he planned. But it didn't happen." Ah Hai said lightly from behind.

Yu Lu looked at the tidy kitchen, everything was as usual, but who would have known that they had experienced a life-and-death disaster last night.Yu Lu bowed his head and found a mobile phone under the cabinet. When he picked it up, it was a Samsung mobile phone with a big spider web lying on the screen and the screen was cracked.Yu Lu checked around the kitchen, but fortunately, nothing changed.When he returned to the lobby, Ah Hai was picking up Bing and sitting on the front desk cabinet.

Yu Lu walked over: "It's really thanks to you."

Ah Hai just smiled: "I'm going to wash my face, let's go shopping together."

Yu Lu held the mobile phone: "I found it in the kitchen."

A Hai took it over and took a look, and thought for a while: "Sun Lei's." After turning on the phone, the screen was broken, it was a little hard to use, and there was a password, and I couldn't click on it. A Hai said: "Send it to Police Officer Liu in a while, maybe return What evidence is there?"

Yu Lu remembered: "Did the person surnamed Sun say anything? Did Huang Jiangong instruct him to do it?"

Ah Hai took the toiletries that Yu Lu brought him and walked to the kitchen: "I told you, he ordered it."

"The police also know?" Yu Lu asked.

"Officer Liu knows." Ah Hai said.

Yu Lu followed: "Will Huang Jiangong be arrested?"

Ah Hai said: "I don't know about that, maybe I will pass it on for an inquiry. He won't plead guilty so easily, and besides, you didn't say that his family is rich, so it probably won't be so easy to be brought down."

"Then forget it?" Yu Lu gritted his teeth in hatred.

"At least we can be quiet for some time." Ah Hai said.

Yu Lu was upset, but there was nothing he could do. He called Liu Haoyang. Liu Haoyang was catching up on sleep after interrogating the prisoner. When he received a call from Yu Lu, he said inarticulately, "I'll pick it up from your place in a while."

Yu Lu could hear his deep tiredness, so he said, "I'll take it to you later, you go to bed first."

"also."

Yu Lu thought that he seemed to be bothering Liu Haoyang all the time. He was almost becoming his own private policeman, so he was embarrassed.

At this time, the song "Little Apple" suddenly rang out in the store. When Yu Bing heard this song, he sang along: "...Little, little Apple, I can never love you too much..."

Yu Lu stared at the broken Samsung mobile phone on the front cabinet: "The mobile phone is ringing." He picked up the mobile phone and saw that the caller ID was "Boss Huang", and hurried to ask Ah Hai who was brushing his teeth: "It may be Huang Jiangong's , accept it or not?"

Ah Hai spit out toothpaste foam, calmed down, and said to Bing, "Shh, don't talk."

Yu Bing calmed down obediently, Ah Hai took out his mobile phone, switched to the recording button, turned it on the loudest, put it next to the Samsung mobile phone, and connected the call.

As soon as the phone was connected, the other side asked straight to the point: "Sun Lei, is the matter settled?" Yu Lu recognized Huang Jiangong's voice when he heard it, and mouthed "It's him" to Ah Hai.

Ah Hai glanced at Yu Lu, and said in a vague voice, "No. I'm afraid I'll burn down other people's houses."

The other side said: "I'm afraid of a fart, if I burn it, I will burn it, let him pay for it, until he can't turn over for the rest of his life."

Ah Hai glanced at Yu Lu, and said: "Then what about today's banquet, do you still want to eat?"

Huang Jiangong scolded at the other end: "Eat your mother's head! You can't handle such a trivial matter. Let me tell you, you can find a way to get back the 4 yuan, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"

Yu Lu said: "Huang Jiangong, you grandson, you despicable villain, what else can you do besides being a secretive person?"

There was silence at the other end, and Yu Lu went on to say: "You are very capable, you can do things like murder and arson, again and again, if you have the ability, you should be clear about it, don't be looked down upon like a turtle."

There was a busy tone on the phone, and the phone was hung up.Ah Haiguan switched on his mobile phone, looked at each other with Yu Lu, and then both laughed, what a farce.

"Do you think Huang Jiangong is scared to pee?" Yu Lu said.

Ah Hai said lightly: "Yes, he is probably busy looking for someone to wipe his ass."

Yu Lu clapped his hands in relief: "Okay, let me see what else this despicable guy will do."

"This man surnamed Huang is despicable to the extreme, but his methods are too clumsy, so don't be afraid. After drinking tea at the police station, he will probably be honest for a while." Ah Hai put down his phone and went to wash his face.

After washing his face, Ah Hai touched his chin: "Did you bring the razor?"

Yu Lu said: "No, I forgot." His own body hair is not too heavy, and shaving is not a daily compulsory course, so he didn't expect to go up this level.Ah Hai is different, his beard is full of vitality, and he has to shave every day, so at this moment, there is a layer of blue stubble on his mouth and chin, which looks very masculine and has a different kind of sexy.

Ah Hai said, "Forget it, I'll shave tomorrow."

"It looks good without scratching." Yu Rou said sincerely.

Ah Hai turned to look at him, raised his eyebrows: "Really?"

Yu Lu was embarrassed, his brain was short-circuited, so he said that.

Ah Hai added: "The chef grows a beard, which makes people feel unhygienic."

The two went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and came back. Zhang Yiwei and Zhao Xiaoyang had already arrived. They came to help unload the vegetables. Zhang Yiwei said, "Why did you only buy such a small amount of meat? Aren't there twenty tables of banquets at noon?"

Yu Lu said: "The banquet will not be held, and it is open for business as usual."

Zhang Yiwei opened his eyes wide: "Why didn't you show it? That guest canceled the banquet?"

Yu Lu said: "It was originally a scam, trying to cheat us of liquidated damages, but now he has breached the contract himself."

Zhang Yiwei wanted to find out more inside stories, but Yu Lu didn't say much, letting everyone know that someone came to the store and set fire to the store would probably cause a lot of panic.

Zhao Xiaoyang frowned: "Then our water card is not for nothing?"

Zhang Yiwei patted him on the shoulder: "Since the other party has breached the contract, the deposit must not be refunded. How much does it cost to make water cards, our boss is sure to make money, right? Brother Lu."

Zhao Xiaoyang said with some disbelief: "Is there really no need to do it? Then if someone comes over and we don't prepare the meals, isn't it because we have breached the contract?"

Yu Lu wanted to say, that guy has gone to a hut, and he still has time to come out for dinner?I'm afraid I'll have to eat a few more free public meals.

Ah Hai said, "Go to work."

"Yes, Master." Zhang Yiwei and Zhao Xiaoyang hurried away.

Yu Lu looked at Ah Hai: "What about those seafood? If you can't sell such expensive things, you will lose money."

Ah Hai said: "Go and take some photos, post a few advertisements on Weibo, and tell them that our restaurant has recently launched Alaskan King Crab Dinner, American Lobster Dinner and Norwegian Salmon Dinner. The quantity is limited, first come first served."

Yu Lu asked, "Do you want to set a price?"

Ah Hai said: "It's not sure yet, I'll draw up the menu first."

After Yu Lu posted on Weibo, he went to the kitchen to make breakfast.Ah Hai said: "Go to a real estate agent and ask them to help us find a bigger shop and prepare to move."

Yu Lu recalled yesterday that the landlord said that he would cancel the lease, and nodded: "Yes, it's just that I can't find it so quickly, right? Renovation also takes time, and half a month is too late."

Ah Hai said: "Go and prepare first, it is impossible to rent here."

"Can I still ask for compensation?" Yu Lu said.

Ah Hai glanced at him: "We must come, he wants us to move, not us."

Yu Lu said, "Then I'll go to the housing agency after dinner."

Zhang Yiwei has sharp ears: "Brother Lu, what are you doing with an intermediary company?"

"Yesterday, the landlord didn't come to make a fuss for us to move. I plan to find another shop." Yu Lu said.

Zhang Yiwei said: "I'm looking for this one. My dad is a special agent who introduces houses to people."

Yu Lu looked at him in surprise: "Really?"

"What do you want, I'll call my dad and tell me." Zhang Yiwei didn't even do his work, and took out his mobile phone to make a call.

Yu Lu looked at Ah Hai and said, "It should be bigger than ours, and the road section should be more prosperous."

Ah Hai added: "It doesn't matter if there are three or four floors."

Yu Lu said, "Does it have to be that big?" Wouldn't the cost be high? Where did they get so much money?

"Private rooms can be used upstairs, and the one that can hold banquets is the best." Ah Hai doesn't seem to consider the issue of cost at all.

Zhang Yiwei said: "No problem, I'll talk to my dad."

"That's troublesome." I didn't expect that the agency company didn't need to look for it. It was really sleepy and came to deliver the pillow. Yu Lu said that he was not happy, but it was a lie.

Yu Lu was in a good mood and didn't mind the trouble, so he started making crystal shrimp dumplings for breakfast.Shrimp dumplings are not only delicious but also beautiful. The dumpling skin is translucent and looks like a crystal, hence the name.The dumpling skin of shrimp dumplings is made of Chengfen, which is gluten-removed flour and is very delicate. When mixing Chengfen, you need to use boiling water. Pour boiling water and stir slowly. After the noodles are wet, they will not burn your hands. When kneading the dough, add a little lard, which can make the dough brighter, and the shrimp dumplings will be bright and gratifying.

The dumpling filling of the shrimp dumpling is mainly made of shelled shrimp, carrots, and shiitake mushrooms. Ahai also specially oils the carrots to remove the peculiar smell to make it more delicious, and then adds minced green onion and ginger, black sesame, pepper, and salt , cooking wine, etc. and mix well to make stuffing.

Chengfen is not tough, and the skin of shrimp dumpling is thinner than that of ordinary dumpling. Most people can’t roll the skin well. Only Ah Hai and Yu Lu can handle it, and Yu Lu only learned it from Ah Hai. It is indeed a technical job.From rolling skins, making dumplings to steaming dumplings, you have to handle them with care. If you don’t pay attention, the shrimp dumplings will break.

Zhao Xiaoyang is particularly interested in making dim sum. He has always wanted to learn how to make dim sum from Ah Hai, but Ah Hai doesn’t have much time to make dim sum. The opportunity to learn is rare, and when he catches the opportunity, he is very serious.Today he also tried to help Yu Lu roll out several dumpling wrappers, but none of them were rolled out well.

Yu Lu taught him: "You can use ordinary dough to learn how to roll dumpling wrappers, and then try to roll dumpling wrappers with Chengfen after you have mastered it completely. When you are resting and have nothing to do, you can learn by yourself."

Zhao Xiaoyang nodded fiercely: "Okay, thank you Brother Lu. Brother Lu, will Master do anything else?"

Yu Lu looked at him and smiled, "We'll make carrot cake tomorrow morning."

Zhao Xiaoyang bowed abruptly: "Thank you, Brother Lu."

Yu Lu looked at Zhao Xiaoyang, and his mind came alive. Their shop only has Chinese food and dinner, and they are closed in the morning.In fact, the people here also love to drink tea. Like the people in City G, if they have morning tea in the morning, there may not be no guests. If Zhao Xiaoyang is interested, he can make breakfast for him in the future, or contract it to him, which is also a fortune Income.

Zhang Yiwei made dumplings one by one, and couldn't stand up. Zhao Xiaoyang said, "It's ugly, eat it by yourself."

Zhang Yiwei said: "I eat it by myself, I put two more shrimps in one."

Yu Lu said: "Don't put it in too much, it will break." Before the words finished, Zhang Yiwei broke a dumpling wrapper.

Zhao Xiaoyang said: "You can't chew too much, pig!"

Zhang Yiwei said: "I can eat it myself. Master will roll out a big dumpling wrapper for me, and I will wrap the broken ones in."

Ah Hai glanced at him, but he didn't refuse, and really rolled out a big dumpling wrapper for him.Zhang Yiwei was flattered: "Thank you Master, long live Master!"

Yu Lu glanced at Ah Hai, then smiled.

Yu Bing also stood on the stool to make dumplings. He also likes to eat shrimp dumplings. They are beautiful, delicious and fun. Making dumplings feels like playing a game.But he didn't wrap it in a good shape, because he couldn't control the strength of his hands, and the skin was torn in a while. As a result, the dumplings were not wrapped, and the skin was torn several times.

Zhang Yiwei said to him: "A Bing, get out quickly, the master will scold you in a while."

Yu Bing sucked his nose: "Master wouldn't scold me, he scolded you, cluck cluck."

Ah Hai has always been tolerant towards Bing, and said to Zhang Yiwei: "Ah Bing is about to catch up with you now, and when you are this age, you will be far behind."

Zhang Yiwei clenched his fists: "Master, don't look down on me too much, I must be a top celebrity chef, just wait and see."

Ah Hai didn't look at him either: "Then I'll wait." Zhang Yiwei is very smart, but impetuous, he is not as calm as Zhao Xiaoyang, and he still needs to be honed to become a master.

All kinds of shrimp dumplings are stacked in the steamer. The plump and beautiful ones are Yu Lu’s masterpieces. The ordinary ones are made by Zhao Xiaoyang. Whether the stuffing or the stuffing is wrapped must come from the hands of "future chef" Yu Bing.There are so many dumplings, Ah Hai didn't make any of them. Of course, the essence of the dumplings - the dumpling stuffing was made by him, and all the dumplings were made by him.

Steam on the drawer for no more than 8 minutes, and the dumplings will come out of the pot. The white, plump and crystal-clear shrimp dumplings exude an attractive luster, and the red shrimp inside can be faintly seen, which makes people drool, and the dumpling skin is broken with a light bite , the fresh and delicious sweet taste of the stuffing spread on the tip of the tongue, and the saliva immediately filled the mouth. Everyone didn't care about the heat, and after swallowing a few in one go, they had time to slowly taste the deliciousness of the shrimp dumplings.

It is rare to eat only shrimp dumplings for breakfast like this in the morning. Because the cost of shrimp dumplings is high, it is not worth it to eat only this. Today, Yu Lu is generous. Please eat shrimp dumplings with your belly open.

Ah Hai was eating dumplings when his phone rang. It was from Zhong Yanhong. He picked it up, and the other party said, "Hey, I just saw Weibo and said that your family has imported seafood. Leave one for me." Boss Zhong's voice was full of sleepiness, as if he hadn't slept yet.

Ah Hai put down his chopsticks: "Okay. Come here as soon as possible."

Zhong Yanhong yawned: "I'll come at night when I wake up. Don't talk about it. I hung up. I haven't slept since last night." It is estimated that it is also a matter of living habits.

Yu Lu watched Ah Hai put down the phone: "Boss Zhong is calling?" There are probably only two people who can call Ah Hai's mobile phone, one is himself, and the other is Zhong Yanhong. For some reason, the relationship between Zhong Yanhong and Ah Hai is relatively close My own good, why do they chat better?

Ah Hai nodded, but did not speak.

Yu Lu put down his chopsticks: "I'm full. You guys are busy. I'll go to the police station and deliver my cell phone." Yu Lu was thinking about Huang Jiangong, so he packed a shrimp dumpling, took Sun Lei's cell phone and talked to Ah. Along with Hai's recording, he went to the police station. Liu Haoyang was catching up on sleep in the temporary lounge when he was woken up by his colleague.

Yu Lu looked at Liu Haoyang's tired face, and felt a little guilty: "Just leave this matter to your colleague, and you sleep with you. By the way, I brought you a shrimp dumpling for dessert."

Liu Haoyang wiped his face: "Thank you. I greeted him and said that you came to wake me up. I am mainly responsible for this matter."

Yu Lu took out the recording and played it to him: "Is this useful?"

Liu Haoyang said: "It's useful. But in this recording, at most, it can be heard that the surname Huang and Sun Lei colluded. It is not certain that the surname Huang ordered Sun Lei to set the fire."

"Have you found someone surnamed Huang?" Yu Lu asked.

Liu Haoyang said: "I have already looked for it, but I refused to plead guilty. He put the responsibility on Sun Lei."

Yu Lu said: "Then Sun Lei is a dead person, so he won't tell?"

Liu Haoyang sighed helplessly: "Sun Lei's words are only one-sided. There is no conclusive evidence to prove that the surnamed Huang told him to set the fire. The surnamed Huang has already gone back, and the higher-ups told him to let go."

"Is this over?" Yu Lu said angrily.

Liu Haoyang said: "With this recording, we can know that he is related to Sun Lei's fraud of liquidated damages. I don't think it will be of much use, because the recording cannot be used as evidence, and even if he is sentenced, I think it is only a suspension of execution."

Yu Lu sneered helplessly: "Can money turn ghosts around?"

Liu Haoyang patted him on the shoulder helplessly: "But after this time, I guess he will restrain himself for a while. You should be more careful in the future. Don't worry, I will help you to investigate. As soon as there is evidence, I will send him Grab it."

Yu Lu knew that this matter may not have made much progress. The surnamed Huang is a local snake, and it is not easy to bring him down, unless he is caught as a murderer and arsonist.

Yu Lu went back to the store listlessly, and was brought back to reality by phone calls for ordering food and consultation along the way. As soon as the Weibo in the morning was sent out, many people responded to the post. Others are still on the sidelines, asking about prices and selling methods.

Yu Lu got up his spirits and went back to the store to help. It was only this time that he saw king crabs. They were really big ones, usually one weighed five or six catties, and the small ones weighed three or four catties.The goods they buy are chilled crabs, which cost tens of yuan per catty. If they are fresh crabs, they cost 300 yuan per catty, and one crab costs 2000 yuan.King crabs are not easy to keep fresh, and they will die within one day of being out of the water. When transported from Alaska to China, they are already dead. For storage, they are usually frozen immediately after being caught, so the domestic consumption is usually frozen crabs.

A large king crab can be sold for thousands of dollars if it is processed. If it is not for a banquet, most people will not be able to eat one, so it is normal for diners to wait and see.

Back in the store, Ah Hai has already listed the menu. There are several ways to eat a kind of seafood, and the prices of different menus are naturally different. Yu Lu recorded these menus one by one, accompanied by prices, and sent on weibo.As soon as this Weibo was posted, everyone saw that it was okay. Although the expensive one cost more than 1000 yuan, the cheap one was only a few dozen yuan, which is still affordable, so what are you waiting for, hurry up and try it.

The frozen king crab is refrigerated at a low temperature below minus 18C. When you want to eat it, take it out and thaw it naturally, so that the meat quality of the crab can be perfect.Wash the thawed king crab, carefully cut off the thorns on the legs, otherwise the mouth will be pricked, and then disassemble the crab legs, eat more crabs: eat the crab body, steam, the crab meat and crab paste taste delicious together, feel the king The original taste of the crab; eat the crab thigh, cut the leg shell, and steam it with garlic vermicelli, garlic vermicelli crab, unique flavor; eat the crab shank again, cut into small pieces and make soup with mushrooms and tofu, etc. It is very sweet, and you can also fry spicy crabs; in addition, the crab shells can also be used to steam eggs, and the eggs absorb the crab aroma of the crab shells, which has a unique taste.If you are not afraid of spending money, you can have a perfect king crab feast, which is extremely enjoyable.

American lobster fish and Norwegian salmon are also multi-dish dishes.For high-end ingredients, the best way to eat is to keep the original flavor of the food as much as possible. Ah Hai tries his best to bake, sashimi, and boil these two seafoods, which just fits the original flavor of local diners. taste.

At noon that day, many people who ate imported seafood came to the store.While Ah Hai was cooking, Yu Lu was taking pictures, posting every freshly cooked dish on Weibo, those foodies who were still hesitant saw the attractive food pictures, they couldn't hold back anymore, they called one after another Start booking.

For a while, Yu Lu turned into a wiring niche again.As soon as he was busy, he finally realized the importance of one thing, he had to recruit employees.Yu Lu took the time to write a recruitment notice and posted it at the door of his shop.This kind of recruitment method is a bit of a wait-and-see, and the effect will definitely not be good, and you will have to go to the talent market to recruit workers later.

In the evening, the restaurant ushered in a small climax of passenger flow, 80.00% of the guests came for imported seafood.The kitchen was buzzing with activity.

Zhong Yanhong was full of sleep, and finally ran to Haibawang to look for food. He went to the kitchen familiarly, but was stopped by Ah Shui who didn't know him: "Sir, we don't let outsiders in here."

Zhong Yanhong looked at her: "You are new here, why am I an outsider?"

Yu Lu turned his head and looked at the door: "Ah Shui, this is my friend Boss Zhong, let him in."

Zhong Yanhong glanced at Ah Shui, and walked in: "What's the matter with you, it's very good to keep people from entering the kitchen."

Zhang Yiwei spoke quickly: "Brother Hong, you don't know, someone came to our shop to poison us yesterday, so outsiders are not allowed in the kitchen now."

Zhong Yanhong was taken aback: "Who the hell doesn't have eyes, and came to your store to poison you, you are really courageous, has something happened?"

Yu Lu said: "It's not that exaggerated. Someone came to put poppy shells, and Ah Hai found out. It's okay."

"Who did it?" Zhong Yanhong frowned.

Zhang Yiwei said again: "Brother Hong, you don't know, yesterday was a mess, there were a lot of troubles, and that shameless landlord came to chase people away, saying that he would not rent the house to us, and let us move yesterday. Almost got into a fight."

Zhong Yanhong looked at Ah Hai: "Is there such a thing?"

Hai said, "Well, so we're planning to move."

"Are you really moving? Tell the landlord to come over. I beat him until his parents don't know him." Zhong Yanhong has long regarded Ah Hai and Yu Lu as his friends, and his friends are bullied, which is fine.

Ah Hai said lightly: "I happened to think the place was small, so I moved. The landlord breached the contract, so he has to pay for the loss."

Zhong Yanhong said: "That's right, how much do you want to pay, I will help you get it, and you won't lose a penny. Oh, by the way, where and when are you going to move?"

Yu Lu said: "Not yet decided, waiting to find a house, ready to change to a bigger place."

Zhong Yanhong looked at the spicy crab that A Haisheng put on the plate, reached out and grabbed a piece of the calf and put it in his mouth: "I will find a place for you to make sure you are satisfied. From now on, I will cover you and see who doesn't have eyes and dares to eat it." Come make trouble."
