Chapter 104 This is my apprentice
Wang Jianye told Chen Xiaoyang everything on the stove and the table, their names and uses.
Chen Xiaoyang took notes carefully, and when he couldn't remember it, he found a pen and paper and wrote it down.
"If you don't understand anything, just ask."
Wang Jianye said to Chen Xiaoyang who was studying seriously.
Chen Xiaoyang nodded, "Master, why do you say that some dishes should be served on hot plates and some dishes should be served on cold plates?"
He didn't understand.
Wang Jianye explained: "Cold dishes should be served on cold plates, but hot dishes like braised pork should be served on hot plates. Otherwise, the hot dishes will be cold before they are served to the guests, which will affect the taste."
Chen Xiaoyang took note of it carefully.
Wang Jianye then explained to him other precautions.
When it was time to go to work, Wang Jianye saw Chai Wenshan coming, so he asked Chen Xiaoyang to remember it first, and he came to Chai Wenshan and said, "Master, I want to add one more person to the banquet tonight."
Chai Wenshan took out the list from his pocket, added a 1 after the number of people, and asked casually, "Who is it?"
"The disciple I just accepted last night, Chen Xiaoyang."
"Ok?"
Chai Wenshan's eyes widened, "You accepted a disciple?"
Wang Jianye nodded.
Chai Wenshan received the list and quickly instructed: "You have to be cautious when accepting apprentices. You must find reliable ones with good talents. As for those with bad character, we can't accept them as apprentices."
When Chai Wenshan knew that Wang Jianye had already accepted a disciple, he couldn't help but worry.
He knew that Wang Jianye was talented, but he didn't dare to fully believe how Wang Jianye judged people.
Wang Jianye knew Chai Wenshan's worries, "Master, don't worry, that child is not bad, I didn't make a mistake in choosing your disciple."
Then, Wang Jianye told Chai Wenshan about the process of taking in an apprentice last night and his assessment and observation of Chen Xiaoyang.
After hearing this, Chai Wenshan breathed a sigh of relief, "According to what you said, this kid is really good."
"Yes, otherwise how can I accept a disciple casually?"
Wang Jianye took Chai Wenshan to find Chen Xiaoyang, who was busy memorizing the various tools and seasonings on the stove and table.
"Master, he is my new disciple, Chen Xiaoyang."
Then Wang Jianye introduced Chen Xiaoyang: "Xiaoyang, this is my master. According to seniority, you should call him Master."
"Hello, Master." Chen Xiaoyang greeted respectfully.
Chai Wenshan saw that the child was really good and said happily: "Okay, okay, how old are you this year?"
"Master, I am thirteen years old this year."
"Oh, thirteen years old? Then you started learning cooking much earlier than your master. When your master became his apprentice, he was already seventeen years old."
The more Chai Wenshan looked at him, the more he liked him. He asked Chen Xiaoyang questions about this and that, and even told Chen Xiaoyang about Wang Jianye.
Chen Xiaoyang found it very novel.
Later, Chai Wenshan asked about Chen Xiaoyang's family situation.
"Master, there are six people in my family now. My father died in an accident at the factory last year, and my mother took over as a welder in the factory. I stopped going to school after elementary school, and have been looking for flexible jobs outside in the past two years. I have two younger brothers and a younger sister. My second brother is in senior elementary school, and my third brother is in junior elementary school. My sister is only two years old this year..."
Chen Xiaoyang said simply.
Chai Wenshan was a little moved. It is really not easy for this child.
"Jianye, teach him well. If you have any difficulties, come to me."
Chai Wenshan instructed Wang Jianye.
Wang Jianye knew what Chai Wenshan meant, so he agreed.
A little after nine in the morning.
Wang Jianye took Chen Xiaoyang to find Zhou Qingde, "Master Zhou, this is my new apprentice, his name is Chen Xiaoyang. I want him to be our apprentice and I will take him in."
"That's a good thing."
Zhou Qingde agreed readily.
Wang Jianye is so talented that he took in an apprentice to pass on his cooking skills. If the apprentice learns well, he will be able to add another great chef to Fengze Garden in the future.
After talking to Zhou Qingde, Wang Jianye took Chen Xiaoyang to the office of manager Zheng Hao. Zheng Hao also agreed and completed the formalities for Chen Xiaoyang.
From this moment on, Chen Xiaoyang became an apprentice of Fengzeyuan, and Wang Jianye was responsible for teaching him.
"This is Master Cao, our chef."
After Wang Jianye met Cao Xiaodong, he introduced him to Chen Xiaoyang.
Cao Xiaodong was surprised to find out, "Master Wang, is this your apprentice?"
"Hello, Master Cao. My name is Chen Xiaoyang, and I am my master's apprentice."
Chen Xiaoyang and Cao Xiaodong bowed slightly and introduced themselves.
Wang Jianye smiled and said to Cao Xiaodong: "Yes, he is my apprentice."
"Good……"
Cao Xiaodong said with a complicated expression.
Half a month ago, Wang Jianye's level was far inferior to his.
As a result, now Wang Jianye has not only surpassed him in cooking skills, but also has an apprentice.
As for him, the chef in charge of cooking, he is not even qualified to accept an apprentice.
The gap between him and Wang Jianye is getting bigger and bigger.
Thinking of this, Cao Xiaodong felt very upset.
"Brother Cao, don't forget to attend the celebration banquet at the Dashilan Hotel tonight. We can have a good drink together then."
"Row."
Cao Xiaodong had no objection.
It doesn't feel good to be surpassed by others, but he admires Wang Jianye very much.
In just a few days, Wang Jianye's cooking skills improved by leaps and bounds.
It's not just because his talent was discovered, but also because Wang Jianye has been practicing day and night during this period.
He saw the tired figure and focused look at that time and admired her in his heart.
It is only natural that Wang Jianye can make a splash in the assessment.
……
After making an agreement with Cao Xiaodong, Wang Jianye took Chen Xiaoyang back to the stove.
He continued to introduce to Chen Xiaoyang the names and uses of each item on the stove and counter.
Chen Xiaoyang couldn't remember it in his head, so he wrote it down. He asked questions from time to time, very seriously.
[Ding, experience value +5]
A system prompt sound suddenly rang in Wang Jianye’s mind.
This puzzled him. I wasn't cooking at the moment, so where did these 5 experience points come from?
After seeing Chen Xiaoyang studying hard, Wang Jianye couldn't help but wonder, is it possible to gain experience points by teaching apprentices?
Wang Jianye wanted to give it a try, "Xiaoyang, let me teach you how to cut potatoes into shreds."
He picked out a suitable potato from the basket, placed it on the chopping board, picked up a kitchen knife, explained to Chen Xiaoyang the techniques and skills of cutting potatoes, and demonstrated how to cut a potato.
"Do you remember everything?"
Wang Jianye asked Chen Xiaoyang.
Chen Xiaoyang nodded, "Master, I will remember it."
"Then you can try it and cut it according to the method I taught you."
Wang Jianye gave his position to Chen Xiaoyang.
Chen Xiaoyang took out a potato, then picked up the kitchen knife that Wang Jianye had just used, and began to carefully cut the potato according to the method Wang Jianye taught him.
Wang Jianye found another advantage of Chen Xiaoyang, which is sufficient concentration.
When asked to cut potato shreds, he did it very seriously, completely immersed in the chopping board, knife and potatoes in front of him.
He was indifferent to other things. Just now, two people had a quarrel not far away, but he didn't even have the interest to look up.
If Shazhu were here, he would definitely not be able to help but take a look at the excitement.
