Chapter 77: Too good, Qin Huairu feels inferior

Li Si asked with a smile: "Hey, Master Wang, you can't forget us now that you have become the Second Kitchen. When are you going to have a banquet to celebrate?"

Feng Qingjie smiled and said, "Yes, Master Wang, you have been promoted twice in one day, just like Master Zhou back then. You have performed so well, you can't save on this wine."

"Pick a time this week. I'll find a place to hold an event and we can celebrate together."

Wang Jianye thought for a while and said.

This banquet must be held to invite one's master, friends, and leaders to have a meal and celebrate.

When others successfully get promoted to the third kitchen master, they have to hold a banquet to celebrate. What's more, since he has become the second kitchen master, it is even more necessary.

The talent he has shown will definitely be the focus of training at Fengze Garden in the future, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

Therefore, many people in the kitchen wanted to get closer to him, which was exactly what he wanted, to make more friends.

So he is willing to take the initiative to hold a banquet to celebrate, and will invite all the masters and apprentices who can come. Once a good relationship is established, it will be more convenient for him to work in the kitchen in the future.

Hearing Wang Jianye's words, Li Si and others said happily: "Great, Master Wang, then we will wait for it."

"Then Brother Wang, can I come too?"

Qin Huairu looked at Wang Jianye eagerly and asked.

Wang Jianye nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, I'll call you when the time comes."

"Well, thank you, Brother Wang."

Qin Huairu became happy and looked at him admiringly.

Sha Zhu asked again: "Brother Wang, do you plan to find a restaurant outside to set up a few tables, or do you plan to hold it in our courtyard?"

"Let's find a restaurant outside first, and we'll decide later whether to hold it in the hospital."

Wang Jianye didn't plan to hold a big party in the courtyard. After all, there were so many people in the courtyard. At most, he could just hold a small one and invite a few good neighbors to have a meal.

At that time, he could ask them to promote himself, so that more people would know his abilities and would be the first to look for him when they needed to hold a banquet.

Wang Jianye has been promoted to the second kitchen master, with a basic salary of 50 yuan per month. With subsidies and bonuses, he can get nearly 60 yuan a month.

He will never be short of money in the future.

The reason why I want to take over the banquet business.

On the one hand, it was because he wanted to find more opportunities to cook so that he could gain more experience points to quickly improve his cooking skills.

Although he is currently the second chef, the number of dishes he knows is not as many as a second chef should. In order to prevent the situation where customers order a dish he doesn't know how to cook, he has to accumulate more experience points and recipes in advance.

On the other hand, preparing banquets for other people's families allows him to come into contact with more people and expand his network of contacts, which is also a good thing.

……

At the same time, several second kitchen masters gathered around Chai Wenshan and congratulated him.

"Congratulations, Master Chai, your disciple has made great progress."

"Congratulations to Master Chai for accepting a good apprentice."

"..."

Chai Wenshan was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. "No, no, my apprentice is still far from being good enough."

"Don't be so modest, Master Zhou. Your apprentice is the most talented apprentice here. He is even better than Master Zhou."

"Yes, your disciple will be a big shot here in the future. You will be so proud as a master."

"..."

"Hey Master Chai, I happen to have a niece who is exactly 18 years old this year. She is very pretty. I heard that your apprentice doesn't have a partner yet?"

"Stop talking nonsense, Old Zhang. Your niece looks like Zhu Bajie's second aunt. How can she be worthy of being Master Chai's apprentice? You should introduce my daughter to him."

"Go to hell. I think the daughter you gave birth to will look like Zhu Bajie's second aunt."

"..."

Chai Wenshan was very happy and proud to see that they wanted to introduce Wang Jianye to someone in order to get closer to him. If Wang Jianye was not so promising, they would not be willing to introduce him to someone.

Just now, Wang Jianye made a splash in this assessment. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Wang Jianye was destined to have a bright future, so they rushed to introduce their daughters or relatives' girls to Wang Jianye.

"Okay, okay, let's talk about this later. Get out of the way first."

Chai Wenshan was surrounded and couldn't move at all. He still wanted to talk to Wang Jianye.

After the crowd that was blocking him moved aside, Chai Wenshan came to Wang Jianye.

"Master."

"Well done, you did a great job this time."

Chai Wenshan looked at Wang Jianye happily.

This time Wang Jianye was promoted twice in one day, which gave him enough surprise and made him very proud in front of everyone.

Wang Jianye smiled and said, "Master, I plan to have a party to celebrate these days and invite all the chefs in our kitchen. Do you think it's feasible?"

"Of course it's possible. Those people are just asking for it."

Chai Wenshan said proudly that because of Wang Jianye's success, he, as a master, whose back had been bent for several years, finally straightened up today.

"Where are you going to have the banquet?"

"I haven't thought about it yet. Master, do you know of a suitable place?"

Wang Jianye asked.

Although Fengzeyuan is the number one restaurant serving Shandong cuisine in the city, it is not quite appropriate to hold a wedding banquet here.

On the one hand, Wang Jianye mainly invited the chefs in the kitchen of Fengze Garden. If a banquet is held in Fengze Garden, then the question is, who will cook?

Even if there are other chefs in the kitchen who have not been invited, they will definitely feel unbalanced when they see that they are not among the chefs invited by Wang Jianye, and the dishes they cook will not be very delicious.

On the other hand, the dishes at Fengzeyuan are too expensive.

If Wang Jianye holds a banquet here, it will cost a lot of money.

He had been an apprentice for three years, and had never heard of anyone in the kitchen holding a banquet in Fengze Garden for celebration.

Facing Wang Jianye's question, Chai Wenshan took the responsibility and said, "Leave it to me. I will help you find a suitable place."

Wang Jianye nodded.

This matter will be handled by his master, so he doesn't have to worry about it. He just needs to wait for the place to be decided and then pay for the meal.

"By the way, Jianye, do you have a partner now?"

Chai Wenshan asked curiously.

Wang Jianye shook his head and said with a smile: "Master, I've been busy practicing cooking and haven't found a partner yet."

Hearing this, Qin Huairu's heart tightened.

But then she thought that she was already married and there was no possibility for her to be with Wang Jianye in this life, so she lowered her head sadly.

Chai Wenshan smiled and said, "Now you have made it. Don't you know that several people have been vying with me to introduce you to a date? You don't have to worry about not finding a good date in the future."

"Oh? Then Master, what did you tell them?"

Wang Jianye asked curiously, look, none of them came over, I’m afraid you rejected them directly.

It turned out to be true. He brushed it off. Chai Wenshan explained, "Look at how they look. The girls they introduce are either their daughters or relatives. How good can they be? You are in such good condition now. Don't worry. There will definitely be someone who will introduce you a girl with better conditions in the future."

Wang Jianye felt that what his master said made sense. Given his current conditions, he really didn't need to rush to find a partner. In the future, there would be plenty of people who would come to him and introduce him to many good girls.

But Qin Huairu felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this.

She originally regretted getting married too early. If she had met Wang Jianye earlier, she would definitely have married him.

But now think about it, Wang Jianye is such an outstanding man, even if she didn't marry him, she wouldn't be worthy of him...
