"Yes, I will cook eight major cuisines. No matter what dish the guests order when they come to our restaurant, our restaurant can satisfy them."

Wang Jianye is very confident about this.

His apprentice is of high level and there is no problem for him to do this.

Jiang Rongqing was very envious when he heard this.

After all, who doesn’t want to have a sufficient supply of talent in their own restaurant, to be able to cook whatever dish they want, and to make a lot of money?

It's just that the intention is there but the strength is not enough. Without talent, the ideas will be in vain.

Jiang Qinfeng, who was standing on the side, said in a somewhat gloomy tone: "These people were trained by our restaurant. Master Wang, you took them all away. Isn't that a bit rude?"

Hearing this, Wang Jianye showed no shame.

It’s not that Wang Jianye is thick-skinned, but the reason why the level of Wang Jianye’s disciples is so good has little to do with the training of Fengze Garden.

Instead, he relied entirely on his own ability to teach his apprentices, and often fed them state-banquet-level dishes that he cooked, which improved their talents and made them progress more rapidly.

Even in other restaurants, Wang Jianye's apprentices can still achieve extremely high cooking levels.

Jiang Rongqing and Jiang Qinfeng's faces changed, and they were obviously dissatisfied with Wang Jianye's answer, but even so, they could not do anything to Wang Jianye.

After all, Wang Jianye has skills and a great reputation. It is Fengze Garden that relies on Wang Jianye to become popular, not Wang Jianye who relies on the big tree of Fengze Garden to become famous.

The old and new generations of Fengze Garden bosses understood this point, which is why they treated Wang Jianye and his apprentices with kindness.

Jiang Rongqing said in a deep voice: "Let me be frank, Master Wang, we don't want you to take all the apprentices away. They are too important to Fengze Garden.
If they follow you and leave Fengze Garden, then our Fengze Garden will probably be in tatters.
Master Wang, please tell me what conditions would allow you to keep a few apprentices for our Fengze Garden. Just ask, any conditions are negotiable."

Having said that, Wang Jianye did not hesitate. After thinking for a while, he asked, "The restaurant I'm renovating has had its construction materials destroyed. Does this have anything to do with you?"

Jiang Rongqing was puzzled, while Jiang Qinfeng avoided his gaze.

Seeing Jiang Qinfeng like this, Jiang Rongqing knew that this matter was closely related to him, "I'm sorry, I promise that such a problem will not occur again in the future."

Wang Jianye did not say much about this. He believed that Jiang Rongqing was a decent man and would definitely educate Jiang Qinfeng well, tell him not to do anything out of line and ensure fair competition.

"I can leave three apprentices to work here, but you have to double their salary so that they are willing to stay. Otherwise, I can't persuade them to stay here."

Wang Jianye's apprentices are already paid very well at Fengze Garden. If their salary were doubled, they would probably be the best paid chefs in the entire city. The salary of one of them would be enough to equal that of several chefs from other restaurants.

But since Wang Jianye's apprentices have excellent skills and have reached the level of state banquets, Fengzeyuan requires them to stay here.

Although Jiang Qinfeng was somewhat dissatisfied, Jiang Rongqing quickly agreed.

"I have one more request, that is, the three apprentices I leave behind can only stay in Fengze Garden for five years. After five years, they can go wherever they want. You cannot restrict them in the contract."

Jiang Qinfeng almost slammed the table, but was stopped by Jiang Rongqing's eyes, indicating that Jiang Qinfeng should learn to be patient.

"Okay, we can agree to this request." The matter had been settled, and Wang Jianye left the boss's office and returned to the kitchen to select the people who would stay there.

Not long after Wang Jianye left, Jiang Qinfeng angrily said in the office, "Wang Jianye is really going too far. He took away our Fengze Garden chefs whenever he wanted. What does he think of our Fengze Garden? A school to train chefs for him?"

Seeing Jiang Qinfeng lose his temper, Jiang Rongqing did not scold him as usual, because Jiang Rongqing was also very angry and felt that Wang Jianye should remember their old friendship and not be so ruthless. He could leave, but he could not take the person away.

"What should we do? I really can't stand this tone."

Jiang Qinfeng wanted to take revenge on Wang Jianye, at least he couldn't let Wang Jianye open his business so peacefully, otherwise he would not be able to swallow this humiliation.

Jiang Rongqing shook his head and said, "Let's not think about dealing with Wang Jianye. Now the whole country is united in purpose and is focused on boosting the economy. It's not as chaotic as it was in the past two years.
Even in the past two years, Wang Jianye's children were so promising, but we couldn't deal with them. Let's just accept this. Wang Jianye left us three top chefs, which is enough for Fengze Garden.

What we need to do is to arrange for apprentices to learn the skills of these three masters within five years.

In this way, if five years later, Wang Jianye’s three apprentices who stayed here left Fengze Garden, the business could continue as usual, and would not have to close down or go bankrupt. ”

Jiang Rongqing sighed. This was the only solution. If there were other options, he wouldn't want to do this.

Wang Jianye found his apprentices, told them about the discussion between him and his boss, and asked them who was willing to stay in Fengze Garden and continue working, on the condition that their salary would be doubled.

Their salaries are already very high, and if they were doubled, that would be an even more terrifying income.

But they were not tempted, but instead determined to follow Wang Jianye.

There was no other way, Wang Jianye could only draw lots and leave three of the ten people to work in Fengze Garden and enjoy double the salary.

Chen Xiaoyang prepared the things for drawing lots, and his fellow apprentices came forward one by one to draw lots.

None of them wanted to be the one drawn to stay in Fengze Garden, but Chen Xiaoyang prepared ten paper balls, three of which had the word "stay" written on them, so whoever was drawn had to stay here.

The three people who finally stayed here were Ning Jiansheng, Li Hunzhi and Feng Xuebao.

Wang Jianye saw that the three people who had drawn the lottery were a little unhappy, so he said a few words to comfort them and let them feel at ease to stay in Fengze Garden for five years.

Five years from now, you can go wherever you want, go to your own restaurant, and you will be welcome.

This finally calmed them down and they were willing to stay in Fengze Garden.

This weekend, Wang Jianye prepared a party at home and invited his disciples to come to his home.

Wang Jianye cooks the food himself, and all the dishes he makes are of legendary quality.

Although Chen Xiaoyang, Wang Yijun and others have reached the level of state banquets, they cannot cook legendary meals.

Only Wang Jianye can do this in this world.

This made the disciples admire Wang Jianye very much, and they felt that they were still far behind. After all, the gap in level was there, and they could not afford to be proud and complacent. (End of this chapter)
