Chapter 46: I have to work hard just to have a bite to eat (please vote for me!)

When Qin Luo heard that Qin Huai asked Huang Xi to inform the supplier to deliver more materials for hand-made lemon tea tomorrow, Qin Luo still giggled happily, thinking that he would drink hand-made lemon tea every day from now on, and didn't know what he was about to face.

When Qin Huai arrived at the cafeteria on the second day, he found that Huang Xi had already arrived.

"Sister Xi, why did you come so early?" Qin Huai was extremely surprised.

It's not 6 o'clock, it's 4 o'clock. It's not even bright yet. Huang Xi's house is still some distance away from Yunzhong Canteen. If you arrive so early, you probably got up at 3 o'clock. Those who don't know better think that Huang Xi is the new dim sum chef hired by the store. Woolen cloth.

"There was something wrong with the supplier. Plumeria and Chrysanthemum were out of stock. Last night I had to urgently contact the supplier of the restaurant where I worked before to get these two. The quality should be good, that is. I have to go and get it. Their warehouse over there ships it at 3:30, so I came right after I got it." Huang Xi said a little tiredly.

Zhao Rong raised her head and said loudly: "Xiao Xi, I think you should go back and rest. You won't have to go to work today. We will give you a day off."

"That's right." Qin Congwen agreed, "You've only slept for a few hours, and your iron-clad body can't bear it."

Qin Huai didn't expect that he just picked two kinds of herbal tea raw materials at random, and let Huang Xi toss around all night. He nodded quickly: "Yes, sister Xi, you go back and rest. I will let my sister and An Youyou keep an eye on the food delivery in the morning." , my mother and father can also temporarily support one from the supplier.”

Huang Xi has been working in the catering service industry for so many years. From being an ordinary employee to being a store manager and then back to being an ordinary employee, there are times when you are even more impressive, but it is rare for a boss to persuade you to work less.

Huang Xi blinked his reddish eyes due to lack of sleep, yawned, and tears came out again. He didn't shirk it, and nodded cheerfully: "Thank you, bosses."

"By the way, Master Xiao Qin, Grandma Ding came over last night and brought two more cans of Sophora nectar. She said that she got the best quality from her relatives and it was good for your health. She asked you to keep it for soaking. Drink honey water.”

"I'll put the sophora nectar on the second floor of the first shelf on the left side of the warehouse. Master Xiao Qin, Master Qin, and Sister Rong, I'll go back first. Thank you for your hard work." Huang Xi finished with a smile, walking briskly. ,get off work.

Huang Xi's words reminded Qin Huai again that he seemed to have given up Grandma Ding.

Goo goo goo goo.

When Qin Huai happily accepted the honey gift from Grandma Ding that day, he had the idea of ​​​​making Sophora japonica steamed buns the next day.

Admittedly, he would never be able to make S-level Sophora japonica buns.

Of course not A-level.

B-level Qin Huai is not sure either.

After all, Jiang Chengde's video tutorials are indeed not very good. They are too fast and too awesome. It feels like a top student has gone through the process in his mind when solving problems, and only writes the simplest steps to get points on the paper.

But the problem is that Qin Huai is not a top academic like Jiang Chengde, and he can't understand Jiang Chengde's steps.

He cannot yet contact Jiang Chengde on WeChat and ask him what the detailed steps are to solve the problem.

If the key to fermented steamed buns is temperature, then there are many keys to sophora steamed buns.

Mixing, kneading, kneading, honey fermentation, exhausting, kneading, secondary fermentation, and steaming are all key.

To put it simply, in the entire video, wherever the dough appears is critical.

The most difficult thing is undoubtedly the fermentation of honey.

Qin Huai had a good idea at the beginning. He first made fermented fermented steamed buns, which was a success the first time. Then he practiced the sophora flower steamed buns step by step. He first conquered the most difficult part of honey fermentation, and then solved the other not-so-easy steps one by one.

Then put them together and see if you can make a B-grade Sophora japonica steamed bun.

As a result, Qin Huai did not expect that his idea would overturn in the first step.

Not only did the fermented steamed buns fail once, but they also overturned for two days, which almost made him mentally depressed.

In the past few days, Qin Huai first overturned, then doubted his life, then worked hard, then suddenly realized, then performed exceptionally, and finally rewarded himself. It was such a wonderful time, so exciting that I threw the sophora nectar and sophora flower steamed buns out of the sky.

I don’t know how Grandma Ding has been spending these days.

In addition to a grandson who loves locust honey steamed buns, her family also has a second granddaughter who loves milk buckwheat steamed buns and a granddaughter who loves honey goat milk buckwheat steamed buns.

Qin Huai didn't even talk about locust honey steamed buns these days, he didn't even make buckwheat steamed buns.

If three children cry together...

I hope Grandma Ding is old enough to be deaf.

Qin Huai went to the warehouse and found the sophora nectar that Huang Xi said. The quality was very good, even better than the jar that Grandma Ding brought over two days ago.

It was obvious that the former kindergarten principal couldn't handle the three children making trouble together.

Qin Huai started kneading the dough.

Sophora japonica steamed buns need to be made, but not now. In the morning, it is time to make three-ding buns and five-ding buns. Now that the fermented buns have been mastered, Qin Huai thinks that the fermented buns can also be added to the early fixed drop combination. After all, the buff of the fermented buns is pretty good.

If you can taste the happiness of caring from others early in the morning, you should be in a better mood when facing work.

The only regret is that the quantity of Buff steamed buns is a bit small, there are 3 drawers a day, and each drawer is limited to 24 pieces. Only the lucky guests who eat the first 72 steamed buns every day can get the buff. If you encounter someone with a particularly big appetite, you will eat three or four at a time...

Qin Huai can only say that luck is also an important factor in happiness.

"Mom, help me wash the ingredients for Wuhua Tea and Qiwei Qushi Tea. Dad, help me cut the Smilax Poria into pieces. Remember to pick them before cutting them. Don't use the stale ones."

"Tell me when your whereabouts come."

"Don't worry Huaihuai, I'll let your dad keep an eye on it." Zhao Rong said, putting down the bun wrapper and going to wash her hands and pick out the ingredients.

Zhao Rong may not be a professional at making steamed buns, wontons, and siu mai, but she is very professional at making herbal tea. Regardless of the taste of the brewed herbal tea, Zhao Rong is still good at controlling the amount of various ingredients.

Zhao Rong picked the ingredients quickly and asked, "Huaihuai, how much should we cook?"

"The biggest pot." Qin Huai said without raising his head.

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Rong hesitated.

The biggest pot in the store, that's pretty big.

The cafeteria specializes in large portions, and the soup pot is enough for a child.

"Huaihuai." Zhao Rong looked at Qin Huai who was still mixing the stuffing, "We have made so much herbal tea, can we sell it?"

It's not that Zhao Rong is not confident in Qin Huai's craftsmanship, but that she is not confident in herbal tea.

Well, she admitted that she wasn't very confident in Qin Huai's skills in making herbal tea either.

How do you call herbal tea...

From the fact that Zhao Rong often persuades Qin Huai and Qin Luo to drink more herbal tea in the summer, it can be seen that this thing is really not very delicious.

"I won't sell it, but give it away." Qin Huai said, "I will give it away if you spend more than 25. I just said that it is hot now, so I will give you some herbal tea that can clear away heat, relieve dampness and reduce phlegm."

"Both dine-in and take-out are free. I'll tell Youyou when they get to work and ask them to pack a batch in advance so that they won't be in a hurry when they arrive."

"Mom, just wash the ingredients and I'll cook them then."

Although Zhao Rong felt that sending herbal tea was a bit of a loss, she also felt that there was nothing wrong with what Qin Huai said.

In summer, you should drink more herbal tea. When Luoluo comes later, let her drink two bowls first. She has been busy during this time and forgot to make herbal tea.

Since Uncle Wang promised yesterday morning that the crab shell roe will be cooked on time at 6 o'clock this morning, Qin Huai's task this morning is quite busy. Sanding buns, Wuding buns, crab shell yolks, fermented steamed buns, and herbal tea are all produced in multiple lines, and the cooking table, pots, and ovens all have to be taken care of.

Qin Huai was so busy that he wanted to send a message to Chen Huihong, telling her that the resume he read yesterday was okay and that the masters should clean it up and come to work.

The recruitment of dim sum chefs is far less smooth than before. This may be because it is more difficult to recruit professional dim sum chefs these days, or it may be because professional dim sum chefs look down on community canteens. After submitting his resume to Chen Huihong Company, Qin Huai took a look at the resume that had been screened by HR and felt that it was not good enough.

Either he has little work experience and looks like a novice who is just messing around, or he has very high salary requirements. No wonder Chen Huihong didn't take the initiative to contact her. It was Qin Huai who asked before sending her resume.

When I think about it, there will be Dingsheng cake, lotus cake, donkey rolling, glutinous rice cake, and later I will try sophora flower steamed buns, fermented glutinous rice buns, Wu Ding Bao and San Ding Bao. Maybe I need to make up a batch of crab shells. Huang had to ship out a few more batches of goods in the morning, so Qin Huai sighed deeply.

Is this the price of fishing?

Qin Huai glanced at the lobby on the first floor.

Full to the brim.

Grandpas and aunts, office workers, and the owner of the convenience store opposite wearing masks all gathered together at 5:55, waiting eagerly.

so…

Why would any office worker want to buy breakfast at this time?

Are there any companies in the office buildings around here that work after 6 o'clock? Has the world rolled into something he couldn't imagine?

At 5:59, Uncle Wang and Chen Juan walked into the cafeteria hand in hand.

"Hey, there are so many people today?" Uncle Wang was surprised and went straight to table No. 9. Sure enough, the considerate Uncle Cao and Xu Tuqiang left a seat for him.

"What's going on today?" Uncle Wang asked as he sat down.

"It's all because of you." Uncle Cao said.

"Yes, because you have a lot of face. Didn't Master Xiao Qin promise at the door of the kitchen yesterday that you would cook the pot on time at 6 o'clock this morning? Everyone is taking advantage of you to eat some hot shrimp-filled crab shell roe. ." Xu Tuqiang said, with a hint of yin and yang in his tone.

He didn't understand. He was the one who came first, discovered this canteen first, and was the first diner. He was even the owner of Yunzhong Community and in the same owner group as Master Xiao Qin.

Why! Why does Master Xiao Qin only open small stoves for people named Wang?

What's good about Wang Laogen? This **** accountant can't even say a nice word, and he still insists that the steamed buns made by Master Xiao Qin are not as good as those in Gusu.

Xu Tuqiang's teeth were almost broken.

He is a loyal customer of Yunzhong Canteen. He eats three meals a day here and enjoys all kinds of snacks. But this does not mean that he doesn't have something he particularly likes to eat.

Wang Laogen's favorite shrimp-flavored crab shell yolk appeared only twice in 21 days. What did he say about his favorite glutinous rice cake?

Jiangmi rice cake has only appeared once since the opening of Yunzhong Canteen!

once!

Qin Huai's voice awakened Xu Tuqiang from his sadness.

"The crab shell yolk is ready!" Qin Huai shouted toward the window, "Our store has not yet opened, and the waiters have not gone to work yet. The crab shell yolk is freshly cooked. Please line up to buy it, and consciously scan the QR code to pay. ”

All the diners consciously lined up in a queue and purchased in an orderly manner.

The first person in line was an office worker with a work badge.

Qin Luo was guarding the herbal tea by the pot. Qin Huai glanced at the work badge, Luo Zijun.

My surname is Luo, but unfortunately I am not Luo Jun.

For the sake of this guest's surname Luo, Qin Huai decided to say a few more words: "Your company works so early."

Luo Zijun smiled weakly: "I go to work at 9 o'clock. I was pushed to the side when I was buying steamed buns yesterday. I happened to hear Master Xiao Qin telling an uncle that he should come over at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning to eat the freshly baked crab shell roe."

"It happened that our department was working on a project, so I took the initiative to ask Ying to work overtime today. I got off work at 4 o'clock, slept for more than an hour, came over to buy breakfast and went home."

Qin Huai:…

It’s not like bro, working so hard just to eat fresh crab shell roe.

Qin Huai silently installed an extra one for him and said: "It just so happens that our cafeteria is holding an event recently. If you spend 25 yuan or more, you will get a cup of herbal tea for you. The surname is Luo. Just show your ID card or related documents."

Luo Zijun was overjoyed and quickly raised his badge: "My surname is Luo, my surname is Luo!"

"It will take a few minutes for the herbal tea to come out of the pot. It also needs time to cool down after it is out of the pot. Can you please wait a moment? I think you need some time to eat." Qin Huai glanced at the pot where the herbal tea was boiled. Qin Luo was using his power for personal gain. , and poured rock sugar inside.

Qin Huai could only cough twice to remind her not to go too far. Although herbal tea tastes bad without sugar, it also tastes bad with too much sugar.

After finishing speaking, Qin Huai felt that this activity of giving herbal tea to Luo was really good. He was the boss anyway, so it was up to him to decide what kind of activities he would organize.

When the printing shop next door opens, he will ask Qin Luo to run over and make an event poster to put on the door.

He didn't believe that Luo Jun couldn't be found like this.

If you can't find him in this way, you can only post a missing person notice.

Qin Huai was thinking as he loaded the plate.

It was Xu Tuqiang's turn.

"Master Xiao Qin, here are 4 crab shell yolks. Please let me know when the buns are ready. By the way, what snacks are you selling today?" Xu Tuqiang said.

"Dingsheng cake, lotus cake, donkey rolling, glutinous rice cake, if nothing happens in the afternoon, I will try to make new steamed buns, and maybe buckwheat steamed buns." Qin Huai knew that Xu Tuqiang was a resident of the community, so he said a few more words.

Xu Tuqiang, who has always wanted to be strong in his life, almost shed tears.

"Okay, okay." Xu Tuqiang decided to sit in the cafeteria today instead of leaving.

Anyway, he doesn’t go to work, so he has plenty of time!

It was Uncle Wang's turn. Qin Huai took the initiative to greet him with a smile: "Good morning, Grandpa Wang. The fermented steamed buns may not be ready until about 8 o'clock. Making the steamed buns takes some time and it will probably be around this time after your morning run. I’m sorry I can’t eat the steamed buns.”

"It's okay, just make one more trip." Uncle Wang waved his hand and said it's no big deal, as long as it has crab shell yellow.

"Master Xiao Qin, let me tell you something."

"You said."

"Didn't I tell you that the steamed buns I ate in Suzhou were better when I was young? I'm really not kidding you. I still have old workers living in Gusu. I called them last night and asked them to Please help me find Master Jing’s contact information.”

"Let me tell you, Master Jing is a very good person. He loves to support the younger generations. I will give you the method when I get it. If you encounter any problems in making steamed buns, just call Master Jing. He will definitely be willing to give you some advice... Useful help.”

As he said that, Uncle Wang still felt a little guilty: "I haven't finished what I said yesterday. My words really didn't sound nice, uncle. I apologize to you. I really like your craftsmanship. Master Xiao Qin, if you want anything in the future, If you encounter something you don’t understand, just go to the uncle directly. He has been an accountant for more than 40 years. He has never made a mistake in calculation and can still continue to calculate it. "

Qin Huai didn't expect that Uncle Wang still cared about this matter, so he could only give Uncle Wang one more piece of cake and comforted him: "I really don't take it to heart. As long as you, Uncle Wang, can come and support our canteen business."

"I will ask Luoluo to bring you two cups of herbal tea later. Which one do you like to drink? Five-flower tea, seven-flavor dampness-removing tea, tangerine peel tea, and hand-made lemon tea."

Uncle Wang:?

Hand-made lemon tea?
