Chapter 158: Income Soars
Not long after, Wang Jianye prepared six dishes, all of which were of state banquet level. Three of them triggered special effects. After eating them, one can increase lifespan by two days, strength by one kilogram, and concentration time by one minute.

Chai Wenshan drank a lot of wine during this meal.

After drinking too much, he talked about how proud he was to have Wang Jianye as his disciple, and how unsuccessful his original method of teaching Wang Jianye was. If he had discovered Wang Jianye's talent earlier, he would have been able to make Wang Jianye progress rapidly.

After eating and drinking, Wang Jianye asked Ma Hua to take the drunk Chai Wenshan home. They both lived nearby, so it was convenient for them to go there.

Wang Jianye drank a lot and was helped by his apprentice Chen Xiaoyang to sit on the edge of the bed.

Chen Xiaoyang brought a basin of hot water for Wang Jianye to soak his feet.

Wang Yijun cleaned the table, washed the pots and bowls, swept the floor, and put the unfinished dishes into the cupboard.

The water for Wang Jianye's foot soak had gotten cold, so Chen Xiaoyang came and asked if he wanted to soak for a while longer. Wang Jianye had also drunk quite a bit of wine, so he dazedly said he didn't need to soak anymore.

Chen Xiaoyang picked up the foot cloth on the side and wiped Wang Jianye's feet, then took off Wang Jianye's coat and put him into the quilt.

Afterwards, Chen Xiaoyang and Wang Yijun quietly walked out of Wang Jianye's house and closed the door.

Wang Jianye already has an apprentice, so he doesn't have to worry about many things anymore.

……

the next day.

Wang Jianye drank Fenjiu yesterday, which is of relatively good quality this year. After drinking too much, he didn’t have a headache when he woke up the next day.

It's just that he got up a little later today than usual.

The apprentice Chen Xiaoyang had packed up and was ready to go to work. He just got up when someone knocked on the door.

"You go first."

Wang Jianye asked Chen Xiaoyang to go to Fengze Garden to work first and not to wait for him.

Usually people go there early. Wang Jianye got up a little late today, but after washing up and having breakfast, he would not be late for Fengze Garden.

……

Because Wang Jianye cooked those three dishes to the level of Master Xia yesterday, there were three more dishes in Wang Jianye's column on the list of signature dishes handed to the guests.

After the three dishes made by Wang Jianye before, spicy and sour shredded potatoes, stir-fried kidney, and sweet and sour carp, were introduced as signature dishes, many customers have tried them.

After all, these dishes are of the state banquet chef level. Once you have tried them, you will love them.

So today Wang Jianye launched three more dishes, and immediately some people were willing to order them just because of the name Wang Jianye.

This is where fame and word of mouth come into play.

So Wang Jianye started to get busy in the kitchen.

For Wang Jianye, it's better to be busy.

Not only can you gain experience points in the process of cooking, but you can also earn a considerable amount of income.

Because the boss promised him that as long as customers ordered his signature dishes, he would get a sum of money, four cents for vegetarian dishes and six cents for meat dishes.

It doesn't look like much, but when you add it up, it's still a lot. When Wang Jianye finished cooking the last dish on the list before leaving get off work, he asked Chen Xiaoyang to count which dishes he had cooked today and how many of each he had cooked.

"Master, I counted them clearly. You cooked a total of 77 dishes today. Among them, you cooked 25 dishes of spicy and sour potato shreds, 15 dishes of sweet and sour carp, 10 dishes of stir-fried kidney, 12 dishes of braised winter bamboo shoots, 7 dishes of shredded white pork with mustard greens, and 8 dishes of cloud sliced ​​​​white fungus."

For some dishes, Wang Jianye does not cook them one by one, but uses a big pot to cook several dishes at the same time. For example, for the dish of spicy and sour potato shreds, Wang Jianye can cook five dishes in one pot, and the speed of serving the dishes is very fast.

Wang Jianye nodded and then asked, "I can make four cents from vegetarian dishes and six cents from non-vegetarian dishes. Can you calculate how much I made from these signature dishes today?"

Soon, Chen Xiaoyang figured it out, "Master, you earned a total of 3.72 yuan today..."

Then, Chen Xiaoyang said with envy and admiration: "Master, you made a lot today. You made more than three or four dollars a day. If you make this much for a month, you will make more than ninety dollars."

Wang Jianye smiled and shook his head. "Today is only the first day I launched these signature dishes. Customers have never eaten them before, so they ordered them to try them out. This doesn't happen every day. In a few days, fewer people will order these dishes."

After a couple of days, Wang Jianye will launch a few more signature dishes, and customers will order them to try them out. There will be fewer people ordering the previous six dishes, but more people ordering Wang Jianye’s new signature dishes. With this calculation, Wang Jianye’s income will not fluctuate much.

It’s a little over three yuan a day, which is more than ninety yuan a month. This money is extra.

If Wang Jianye's basic salary, bonuses, subsidies, lottery tickets, etc. are added, his monthly income would probably be a terrifying 200 yuan!
His monthly income was only more than 90 yuan two days ago.

And now, the income has more than doubled!
……

This weekend, Wang Jianye returned to his home in Nanluoguxiang, ready to fulfill his promise to Wang Jianwu.

That is, if Wang Jianwu ranked in the top fifteen in the class in the school test, he would prepare a table of Wang Jianwu's favorite dishes for him. As a result, Wang Jianwu ranked fifth in the class in the test.

So Wang Jianye had to follow the agreement and prepare a table of Wang Jianwu's favorite dishes, including sweet and sour carp, stir-fried kidney, stir-fried pork tenderloin, dry-fried meatballs, braised prawns, and pork stewed with cabbage and vermicelli. They were all meat dishes, and they were all Wang Jianwu's favorite dishes.

All six dishes are of state banquet quality and trigger three special effects. If you eat them, you can add three days to your lifespan, one point to your IQ, and one minute to your concentration time.

"Eat slowly, don't choke."

When Wang Jianye saw Wang Jianwu wolfing down his food, he couldn't help but advise him that eating too fast would make it difficult to digest.

"Brother, your dish is so delicious."

Wang Jianwu spoke vaguely while eating something.

Zhang Lan also asked him to eat slowly. After the scolding, Wang Jianwu slowed down a bit, but he still kept eating with his chopsticks.

Last weekend, Wang Jianting went home, and this weekend, she came back again. Originally, she went to college and had to take the bus for several hours to go home, so she only came back once every two weeks.

But ever since she had eaten a large table of delicious meals prepared by Wang Jianye last weekend, she couldn't stop thinking about it. She immediately took a bus back home on the weekend, craving for them.

"Tingting, tell me, are the dishes your brother cooks better, or are the dishes in your university cafeteria better?"

Zhang Lan asked Wang Jianting while eating and smiling.

Wang Jianting said as a matter of course: "It must be that my brother's cooking is delicious. Even if my brother's dishes have lost their flavor after being left for a few days, they are still better than the food in the cafeteria."

"No, no, no."
