Dessert War [Ancient and Modern]

He had already eaten a lot of top-quality Belgian dark chocolate, although the taste was bitter, the aftertaste was sweet. He also dreamed that Shen Lie was showing a bright smile to him, like a phoenix flower blooming in July, warm as fire.

In the early morning, when the first rays of sunlight passed through the curtains, Shen Lie had already opened his eyes, and glanced at Tang Yu who was sleeping next to him with complicated emotions.Originally, this time was the same as the last time, it was just a desire to vent your desire, but for some reason, the feeling of falling asleep with his arms was unexpectedly beautiful.

Just now, when I woke up and saw his sleeping face with a peaceful smile, I even subconsciously wanted to give him a "Morning kiss"?Was my head caught by the elevator last night?

Feeling a little disturbed, Shen Lie got up quite a bit, and just took off his shoes and was about to stand up, but the pajamas on his body were gently pulled from behind.Turning around, Tangyu was already awake, with a pair of big black eyes as clear as mountain springs, staring at herself against the morning light.

"Brother, I know you hate me. I knew it from the first day I came back with you. Yesterday I made a mistake and did such a shameful thing..." The young man got up, his voice was very soft, The expression on his face was still a little timid at the beginning, and the little hand holding the corner of his clothes trembled slightly.However, as soon as he spoke, his eyes gradually became firmer.

Shen Lie remained calm, and only listened quietly to him saying to himself: "I don't know how bad I was before, or how many bad things I did to make my brother hate me so much. But I want to tell my brother that what happened in the past I have already forgotten everything, and I am determined not to regain any memory. What happened last night was my fault, and if I make jokes again in the future, I will be willing to punish me whatever my brother does."

Speaking of this, Tang Yu's pink face turned slightly red, bit his lip, he raised his head again, and said to Shen Lie seriously: "I am the bad one in the past, from now on, I just want to start again Come here, at least, to be a person who no longer makes you hate. Brother, please believe me!"

A certain place in my heart seemed to be gently touched. Indeed, Shen Lie knew that the Tang Yu in front of him was very different from the previous one.In the past, when Tang Yu was in front of him, his words were always provocative and ambiguous, his smile was also hypocritical, and the corners of his eyes and brows were full of naked desire.But the eyes in front of her were clean and simple, so clear that she couldn't see the slightest bit of pretense and charm.

Just like the passage he said just now, there is not a single gorgeous character, but it is simple and sincere, pointing directly to people's hearts.Although Shen Lie knew that he shouldn't trust him so easily, his heart began to soften.

Pulling Tangyu's slender wrist, Shen Liewei pulled him in front of him with all his strength, wrapped his arms around his soft and tough waist, and didn't answer what he asked himself, just asked lightly: "How is your body, where is it?" Are you uncomfortable?"

"It's okay, but the butt still hurts..." Recalling her debauchery last night, Tang Yu blushed and knelt on the edge of the bed, her waist was hugged close to the man's chest, and she felt the faint fragrance lingering around each other. It made him feel a little nervous again for a moment.

However, before he could sway, his upper body was suddenly knocked down, his buttocks were raised high, and he was slapped seven or eight times by the man with his bows left and right.

Although her butt was very painful, Tangyu knew that it was her fault last night, so she gritted her teeth and let him beat her.

Seeing that the little guy didn't cry out for pain or beg for mercy when he was beaten, but just looked at him with big eyes full of grievances, Shen Lie's heart softened again, and he grabbed the little guy up, but there was still a cruel smile on the corner of his mouth: " Your butt hurts, right? Next time you dare to take drugs with Cao Jun and his gang, see if I can beat you to death!"

Tangyu hummed, bit her lip and replied in a low voice: "I said never again, whether you believe me or not, I will never break my promise."

Shen Lie took the time to change his clothes, and said with a blank expression: "You should know that I am not your real brother. To you, I am just fulfilling my guardianship. At least you should not cause me trouble until you are 20 years old. Come on, demon moth. After the age of 20, even if you rot into mud in the stinky ditch, it has nothing to do with me!"

20 years old?Tangyu is 17 years old this year, so if she calculates it, it means that after three years, this man in front of her will throw her aside and ignore her?It stands to reason that it would be an excellent thing to be able to leave this devil, but for some reason, I feel a little bit cold in my heart.Knowing that Shen Lie is also eager to get rid of himself, this makes him feel very uncomfortable.

But immediately, Tangyu heard some words that made him feel a little relieved.

"During the time you have been with me, if you perform well enough, I can teach you some dessert-making techniques. As for how much you can learn from me, it depends on your own ability."

The man always swung the stick to himself every day and only occasionally stuffed a candy, so that Tangyu couldn't believe that such a good thing would suddenly happen to her.While sitting in Maiji eating breakfast, he couldn't help asking again: "Brother is really willing to teach me personally?"

Shen Lie drank his coffee slowly, and asked without answering: "You have also been a trainee at Black Swan for a month, Tang Yu, so far, what do you think is the most difficult part? What fascinates you the most? What is it?"

The hardest part?Since entering the Black Swan, Tangyu has almost entered a new field, and every piece of equipment and every technology needs to be familiarized with by him.There, he got a preliminary understanding of some concepts of modern desserts, and also got to know countless novel ingredients, most of which can bring him endless creativity and inspiration, but there are also a few that confuse him from beginning to end.But what puzzled him the most was the pricing of desserts!Today, he has no concept of money as he did back then, so a dine-in cake costs 65 yuan, which is beyond his comprehension.

So, seeing Shen Lie asking him at this moment, Tangyu blurted out: "Chocolate, coffee, and ice cream all fascinate me, but I have never been able to grasp what kind of taste is the best. Besides, I don't understand our shop very well. Why can the things in it be sold so expensive?"

"What kind of problem is this! If this can become your problem, it only means one thing, your foundation is worse than I imagined!" Shen Lie felt a little bored, wasting precious time teaching him such an idiot However, he still took out some change and ordered Tangyu to go to the counter to buy a sundae with syrup served separately, an apple pie, and two milkshakes of different flavors.

While shopping at the counter, Tangyu received a text message on her mobile phone. When she opened it, it was Cao Jun who asked her if she was okay and why she didn't return his call.Only then did Tangyu realize that there were still more than a dozen missed calls on her phone. After thinking about it, she didn't know how to reply to the text message.

He also thought a lot about what happened last night, and he knew that Cao Jun couldn't be blamed entirely. After all, it can be seen from everything they did that Tang Yu in the past was also happy to suck the kind of food that made people feel ecstatic. drug.And this body was indeed tempted last night, and enjoyed it.

Sighing helplessly, the boy stuffed his phone back into his pocket, and returned to his seat with the food he bought.

"Do you want to know the mystery of the pricing?" Shen Lie picked up an apple pie and a cup of sundae from the dinner plate and placed them in front of Tang Yu, asking, "How much did you pay for these two things just now?"

Tangyu didn't know what the master meant, so she replied honestly: "The apple pie is four yuan, the sundae is seven yuan, uh, the total is 11 yuan."

"OK, 11 yuan, this is the price of Mai Kee. Look at—" As he spoke, Shen Lie tore open the hamburger box, turned it into a simple plate, and then put the apple pie from the middle Break it apart, make a V shape and place it on the right side of the serving plate, so that part of the apple dices and sweet juice in the pie will naturally flow out on the serving plate.

Afterwards, Shen Lie scooped out about an ounce of ice cream from the sundae cup, spread it into a smooth semicircle shape with the back of the spoon and placed it on the upper left side of the plate, and then surrounded the ice cream with the strawberry syrup of the sundae The shape of a comet across the sky was lightly drawn on the dinner plate, and a few crushed strawberries were picked out and arranged delicately like scattered petals in several blank places on the dinner plate.

After finishing all this, Shen Lie pushed the finished product in front of Tangyu, and asked with a smile: "It's still the apple pie that costs four yuan, and I only used about one-fifth of a cup for the sundae. Now Let's take a look again, if the same dessert is sold in our store, how much will it cost?"

Tang Yu seemed to be watching him perform all these miraculous things, and said dumbfounded: "The store we opened was originally a black shop, and after all your troubles, I think it should sell at least 35!"

"It's called a black shop after selling you to make human meat buns!" Shen Lie glared at Tangyu, and said seriously: "Maiji uses frozen instant food products, if they are sold in our shop, of course the pies are freshly made .Pie crust, fillings, including ice cream, I will use better quality ingredients, and the taste I make will naturally be several blocks away from Mai Kee. The name can be taken as 'Ice and Fire Two Heavens', so that customers can have a clear feeling The pie is fresh and hot, and the ice cream is cool. Of course, the presentation can be done better, and the price will never be lower than 50 yuan. Now, do you understand?"

Tangyu nodded half-understanding, as if he had realized something, but it was not too clear in his mind.

"Give me another simple example." Shen Lie placed his sip of coffee in the center of the dinner plate, "A cup of the most ordinary coffee costs five yuan. Then
