Chapter 216 Wang Jianye breaks the record again

Although many people who had eaten the braised pork made by Wang Jianye at Fengze Garden at noon told their relatives and friends about it after returning home, they spontaneously promoted Fengze Garden.

But their relatives and friends had already eaten lunch at this time and were not hungry anymore. If they wanted to try how delicious the braised pork made by Master Wang was, they would have to wait until dinner in the evening.

Many people think this way, so it is conceivable that there will be more guests coming to Fengze Garden in the evening than at noon, and it may even be as packed as in the past few days.

However, the braised pork from Fengzeyuan was not enough to sell at noon and was sold out at 12:30 noon.

There are more customers coming in the afternoon, all to taste this dish. If you want to make more money, you have to make more braised pork and keep it. Anyway, such delicious braised pork will never be a problem to sell!

Xu Youliang reported the situation to Jiang Rongqing.

After discussing with Zhou Qingde and Wang Jianye, Jiang Rongqing decided to buy another big pot to stew the braised pork, and also coordinate a stove for Wang Jianye to use.

Wang Jianye returned to the kitchen and found 50 kilograms of pork belly.

Since there were no such large pieces of pork belly of such good quality, we could only find a few decent pieces and piece them together to make up the 50 kilograms.

All of Fengzeyuan’s pork belly was sold out in one go.

If the customers order other dishes that require pork belly, and Fengzeyuan doesn't have enough pork belly, they won't be able to continue, which is not acceptable.

Zhou Qingde quickly found Qiao Jianliang and said, "Quick, go to the market and buy another 30 kilograms of pork belly."

"understand!"

Qiao Jianliang quickly rode his bike to the vegetable market to buy it.

In the front hall, Xu Youliang once again called all the receptionists together. "Everyone did a good job at noon, but at night, it is the real peak of customer flow. Under the leadership of Master Wang, our Fengze Garden will be full again.

I hope everyone can be more nervous and serious, and welcome the guests tonight with the most enthusiastic enthusiasm, so that they can eat and drink well and leave safely. Don't let me find out who dares to cheat. Once I find out, I will immediately deduct one week's salary, and I will fire them if I find out again!"

After scaring off his waiters, Xu Youliang then made another promise: "As long as we do our job well and entertain this wave of guests tonight, and let our Fengze Garden's sales reach a new level, then I will ask the boss for a red envelope, and everyone will get a share!"

After hearing that everyone would receive a red envelope as long as they worked hard, the originally silent crowd became excited.

"Great!"

"There are red envelopes to take."

"You must work hard, I want to get a red envelope."

"..."

Seeing the performance of his men, Xu Youliang was very satisfied. He then asked everyone to go back and do their respective tasks which had been arranged long ago.

In the kitchen, Wang Jianye put the meat into two large pots, a total of 50 kilograms, and then instructed his apprentices: "Chen Xiaoyang, Wang Yijun, Defu brothers, Cheng Jie, the five of you should cut the meat into the same mahjong pieces as in the morning.
Ma Hua, you go and clean the new pot after they bring it over. Ye Youzhang, you peel five heads of garlic and ten shallots. We'll have to work hard today. Let's try to make these two large pots of fifty braised pork dishes before 5:30 pm, before the guests come to Fengze Garden. Let's get started! Hurry!"

"Yes, Master."

After the seven disciples responded, they immediately went about their respective business according to Wang Jianye's instructions.

Wang Jianye was not idle either. He was preparing various seasonings and 50 kilograms of pork belly, which he divided into two large pots. Each pot contained about 25 kilograms of pork belly.

This is a technical job. If you don't know how much seasoning to put in, it may cause the whole pot of dish to be ruined, or the quality of the dish may not reach the legendary level, thus destroying Master Wang's golden signboard.

They started working at 2:30 in the afternoon.

At 2:45, Wang Jianye prepared all the seasonings.

At 2:50, the second big pot was bought and Ma Hua hurried to clean it.

At three o'clock, fifty kilograms of pork belly had been cut into mahjong pieces and blanched in two large pots.

At 3:10, the blanching was completed. Wang Jianye took out all the pork belly from the pot and placed it in three large vegetable baskets to dry.

At 3:20, Wang Jianye started frying the ingredients in a big pot.

At 3:25, Wang Jianye poured the dried and blanched pork belly into one of the pots, about 25 pounds, and then stir-fried until all the pork belly pieces were slightly charred on both sides.

At 3:35, Wang Jianye poured in the rock sugar and dark soy sauce that he had prepared long ago for coloring. At 3:40, Wang Jianye picked up the ladle and scooped water into the pot until all the meat pieces were covered.

At this point, the 25 pounds of pork belly can be simmered over low heat, and Wang Jianye will then busy himself with the second pot.

At 4:20, Wang Jianye stewed the second pot of 25 kilograms of pork belly.

All that's left now is to wait.

Each pot contains 25 kilograms of pork belly, which is a large amount, so the stewing time needs to be relatively long.

The first pot started to be stewed at 3:40. After one hour and twenty minutes, that is, at 5 o'clock, the braised pork in the first pot was cooked. The next thing to do was to open the lid of the pot and use high heat to reduce the sauce.

At 5:20, the first pot of braised pork was cooked over high heat until the sauce was reduced. The first pot of 25 pounds of braised pork was ready.

At this time, guests gradually came to Fengze Garden.

When the customer ordered the braised pork, after the waiter sent the order to the kitchen, Wang Jianye's apprentice Ma Hua would serve out several plates of braised pork according to the number of portions on the order, and then have the waiter deliver them to the customer without Wang Jianye's instructions.

The second pot started to be stewed at 4:20. After one hour and twenty minutes, at 5:40, it was finally cooked. Then, just like the first pot, open the lid and cook over high heat until the sauce is reduced.

At six o'clock, the second pot of braised pork was ready.

Wang Jianye didn't bother with it anymore, but instead cooked the dishes ordered by the guests at his own stove.

At 6:10, the first pot of braised pork was sold out.

At ten minutes past seven, the second pot of braised pork was also sold out.

By seven forty, the number of orders sent from the front office gradually decreased.

At eight o'clock, Wang Jianye finally finished the last order.

Normally there are no orders at 7:10, but now it’s 8 o’clock and I have just finished the last order.

This shows that there are many more guests in Fengze Garden today than usual.

"Chen Xiaoyang, help me calculate how much money I made today."

Wang Jianye, who finally had some free time, drank some tea and gave instructions to Chen Xiaoyang beside him.

"Yes, Master." Chen Xiaoyang immediately checked every order, writing down which dishes Wang Jianye made and how many there were in total, and finally added them up, "Master, you made a total of seven dollars tonight! Add the five dollars you made at noon, and you've made a total of thirteen dollars today!"

After saying that, Chen Xiaoyang and the other disciples looked at Wang Jianye with envy.

Because the thirteen yuan that Wang Jianye earned was just a subsidy.

Even if it was just a subsidy, what they earned in a day was almost as much as the 15 yuan a month salary of their apprentices!

"Thank you for your hard work, I will give each of you a red envelope!"

Wang Jianye said with a smile, and took out a handful of money from his pocket. He gave fifty cents to each of his seven apprentices.

"Thank you, Master!"

"Long live Master!"

"..."

Wang Jianye was happy to see his disciples happy after a hard day's work.

He made 10 dollars yesterday and he made 13 dollars today, setting a new record.

A month ago, the commission he initially earned from making his signature dishes was only 3.72 yuan.

Over the past month, the commission Wang Jianye earned from his signature dishes has more than tripled!
