Chapter 197 Quarrel
Chapter 197 Quarrel
After knowing each other for such a long time, this was the first time Xiao Su saw Uncle Xu so angry.
My impression is that although he is a bit quiet, he is very sincere to people.
After all, how bad can someone who can make so many delicious meals be?
He had just vaguely heard something about releasing raw ingredients, and he felt that it was a bit outrageous.
The sound continued, and it was obvious that the boss was really angry.
"What's the use of crying? Where did you put the snake? There's still time to get it out now!"
The two older ones who were watching the excitement outside were silent, and the younger one didn't understand a bit and his head was still dizzy.
Release the snake?
How dare you release this?
Two middle-aged men in chef uniforms hurried out from the kitchen.
I don’t know if he was hiding from the spotlight or getting the ingredients.
When they saw Xiao Su, they felt like they had seen a savior.
"Mr. Xiao, you came just in time!"
Xiao Su was curious, "What's going on in there? Why is Uncle Xu so angry?"
The two chefs had strange and angry expressions. Thinking that they were all their own people, they couldn't help but complain to him.
"Some time ago, our master's wife fainted while out on her own. A passing girl called 120 and saved her. My master's wife then asked her what she wanted in return. At first, the girl said she wanted nothing, but then she found out who my master's wife was and asked her to find her a job at Ke Du Zhai."
So far, it's quite normal and within the scope of understanding.
In a restaurant like Ke Du Zhai, every person who comes in needs to be strictly screened.
But the little girl saved the boss's wife, so she made an exception and was given a cleaning job.
The working hours are from 12 o'clock in the evening to 3 o'clock in the morning. At this time, all the guests have left, and her cleaning will not affect anyone.
The salary is the same as other cleaners, and it's pretty good except that I have to stay up late.
But last night, before they left work, they put the food they had prepared in advance in the breeding area, hoping to wait for them to come and clean it up this morning.
But when I arrived in the morning, I saw that the breeding area was empty and all the living creatures that I had ordered in advance were gone.
They were startled and quickly checked the surveillance footage.
Then we found that the little girl used a snakeskin bag that she got from somewhere to scoop out the turtle and three snakes in the fish tank.
They immediately tried to remedy the situation and rushed to the market to find new ingredients.
But the turtle and snake were booked with someone more than a month in advance.
These are not local ingredients from Beijing, nor are they farm-raised. They are purely wild and need to be airlifted.
So they ran around all the seafood markets in Beijing, but couldn't find all the ingredients.
Because they want wild ones and they have to be fresh.
Both of these things are from other places. They are also available in farms, but the taste will be a little worse.
Customers also know that it is precious, so they made a reservation a month in advance, giving them enough time to find the ingredients.
Ke Du Zhai contacted the seafood vendors and asked them to deliver the food at the agreed time to ensure the freshness of the ingredients.
The reason for buying wild ones is that they are fresh, because this thing requires a relatively high level of cooking skills from the chef. If it is not cooked well, the taste of the ingredients themselves will not be brought out.
Therefore, most of the goods are collected by restaurants. Every time a batch of good goods arrives in Beijing, they will be taken away by old customers who have learned the news in advance.
Most of these old customers are in the same industry.
Colleagues are enemies. Even if they don’t process the items they buy, they may not necessarily give them to you.
Ke Du Zhai's position remains unshakable. On the surface, everyone smiles and congratulates it, but in their hearts they may be hoping that it will soon fail and take its place.
The customer ordered today's meal a month ago. In addition to the classic dishes, he also specially added a dragon and phoenix soup.
It is said that one of the partners loves to eat snake meat, so they want to cater to his taste.
Knowing that Ke Du Zhai is the most well-received restaurant in Beijing, we decided to have our meal here.
Not only that, they also spent a lot of money to ask the boss to do it personally.
I just want to use the boss's skills to promote this business.
In this case, the ingredients that the customer specifically requested and the partner’s favorite were lost.
Originally, only one snake would have been enough, but to be on the safe side, Ke Du Zhai took five snakes from this batch. Two of them had been executed yesterday, and the remaining three were kept in the breeding area.
I kept so many just in case, but I didn't expect to lose all three.
After failing to find replacement ingredients, the restaurant staff quickly contacted the girl who took the ingredients away.
Just an hour ago, she slowly came to the back door of the hotel.
When the boss asked her, she said calmly that she had released it.
It is almost noon now. On one side are the customers who have been specifically mentioned, and on the other side is the reputation of Ke Du Zhai.
How could the boss not be anxious?
After listening to what the two chefs said, Fu Yueci was speechless.
"This man must be sick. Grandpa Xu is so pitiful."
Then he thought about it thoughtfully and muttered something.
"My grandfather has a lot of snakes on the mountain. I don't know if it's the right species."
Xiao Su tilted his head, looked at the young man who was thinking seriously, and unlocked another way of beating for him in his mind.
"I'll go back and tell your grandfather."
"?" Fu Yueci suddenly said seriously, "Uncle Xiao, you're just joking. Don't tell him."
Hearing the noise inside that had not stopped, Xiao Su decided to go in and take a look.
The kitchen was very large, and he went not to the cooking area, but to an aisle leading to the kitchen.
This place is as big as two classrooms, filled with various ingredients and small boxes to maintain the temperature of the dishes.
It is very clean, and the aroma of various foods is so fragrant that it makes people dizzy.
Qingqing, who didn't understand what was going on, lay on Xiao Su's shoulder, drooling at the aroma of food that filled the room.
She didn't hear a word I just said.
But she could smell the aroma of the dishes that were being heated around her.
Xiao Su tilted his head to look at her and found that her pink mouth was wet, so he took out a handkerchief and wiped it for her.
Qingqing is hungry.
But there was a quarrel here, and my uncle and brother were watching intently.
But in this environment, she couldn't concentrate at all.
In the aisle, a girl dressed casually was crying.
The old man in his sixties sitting opposite her looked very fierce, his face red and his neck thick with anger.
"What's the point of crying? Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, I'll call the police right now!"
After the old man finished saying this, the girl who had been covering her face and crying raised her face, looking extremely aggrieved.
"I just released them. I didn't do anything illegal."
Seeing everyone's incredulous looks, she even felt justified.
"There's so much frozen snake meat in the restaurant. Why not just use that to cook? Why do we have to kill them?"
Bai Xiaonian knew this; she had heard from her colleagues who worked as cleaners that the hotel's cold storage had everything.
And, and she felt like the three snakes were asking her for help!
In her hometown, spiritual snakes must never be eaten, as eating them will result in revenge from the snake fairy.
So by doing this she not only freed the four lives, but also saved the people and customers in the restaurant in disguise.
In order to win the favor of the snake fairy, she endured her fear and fished them out of the pond and put them into the artificial lake in the community.
She even dreamed of a snake fairy last night.
But who would have thought that before she woke up in the morning, the life-threatening phone call came and woke her up from her sweet dream.
