Chapter 97: Sha Zhu was fired

"The fool was fired?"

Wang Jianye was very surprised, he didn't know about this yet.

"Brother Cao, when was he fired?"

"Yesterday afternoon, he beat up Brother Xu, and then Brother Xu found Manager Zheng and fired Sha Zhu."

Cao Xiaodong briefly explained what he knew.

Fengzeyuan is open all week, so the employees take turns to rest.

Wang Jianye didn't go to work yesterday as it was the weekend, but Sha Zhu still had to come to work.

"Who is the Brother Xu you are talking about?"

Several figures appeared in Wang Jianye's mind, and he didn't know who the Brother Xu that Cao Xiaodong was talking about was.

"It's our head waiter, Brother Xu Youliang."

Cao Xiaodong finished explaining.

Wang Jianye felt even more confused.

Why did Sha Zhu beat Xu Youliang?
Doesn’t Sha Zhu know Xu Youliang’s position in the front hall?
Xu Youliang is the most famous head waiter in Fengze Garden and has worked here for many years.

Many guests come here to eat not only for the chef, but also for Xu Youliang.

The role of such talents is very important and they are treated very well, no worse than the head chef.

And Sha Zhu is just an ordinary apprentice. Why do you dare to provoke him?
Wang Jianye couldn't figure it out, so he asked Cao Xiaodong if he knew.

Cao Xiaodong shook his head: "I really don't know much about this matter. I only know that he was fired by Manager Zheng because he beat Xu Youliang."

"That's it..."

Wang Jianye thought about asking Qin Huairu after get off work.

He guessed that Sha Zhu's dismissal was most likely related to Qin Huairu.

Otherwise, Sha Zhu would have nothing better to do than to provoke Xu Youliang.

I was busy until after ten o'clock in the morning.

Chai Wenshan came over and said with a smile: "You have been studying with me for three years. Now you have completed your three-year apprenticeship and graduated. You performed very well in the assessment, so I thought of holding both your graduation banquet and celebration banquet at the same time."

"When?"

"Tomorrow night, at the Dashilan Hotel on Qianmen Street. I've already made an appointment with them."

The matter of organizing a farewell banquet for Wang Jianye was basically handled by his master, Chai Wenshan, so Wang Jianye didn't need to worry too much.

"Master, how many people did you invite?"

Wang Jianye asked curiously.

Chai Wenshan took out a list from his pocket and said, "Here are the friends, seniors, and leaders I want to invite. If you want to invite anyone, just write them on the list and give them to me in the afternoon."

Wang Jianye nodded, took the list from Chai Wenshan and read it carefully.

There were a total of twenty or so people that Chai Wenshan wanted to invite, most of whom were the second and first kitchen masters of Fengze Garden, including Sun Qu, Zhou Qingde and others.

Then, Fengzeyuan’s manager Zheng Hao, boss Jiang Rongqing, head waiter Xu Youliang and others will also attend.

Finally, there were many people that Wang Jianye didn’t know.

After looking for a while, Wang Jianye added a few people to the list, including Qin Huairu, Sha Zhu, Cao Xiaodong and Wang Jianye's family.

There was no need to ask about Qin Huairu, she had already said she wanted to participate.

If Sha Zhu was still working at Fengze Garden, he would definitely be willing to participate. But now that he has been fired, it is not certain whether he will come to participate. However, Wang Jianye still wrote his name and will let him know when he really does not want to participate.

Then there was Cao Xiaodong. Wang Jianye had just asked him and he said he also wanted to participate, so Wang Jianye added his name.

……

After finishing writing, Wang Jianye returned the list to his master Chai Wenshan.

Chai Wenshan will prepare meals and arrange seats according to the number of people.

Of course, Wang Jianye doesn’t have to worry about these things, as Chai Wenshan will be responsible for them all.

Wang Jianye continued to busy himself with cooking.

These dishes were not made casually by Wang Jianye, but the front hall brought the guests' menus and Wang Jianye made them according to the menus.

After all, he has become the second chef of Fengze Garden, and many of his dishes have reached the level of the first chef, which means he is qualified to cook the meals ordered by customers. A few days ago, when he was still an apprentice and was allowed to cook, his master Chai Wenshan specially checked the dishes he cooked.

If it is not up to standard, it cannot be served to customers.

But now, the quality of several of Wang Jianye's dishes has obviously surpassed Chai Wenshan's, so Chai Wenshan can no longer supervise him and just lets the waiter take the dishes away after they are ready.

"Brother Wang, is the fried pork kidney ordered by table number three ready?"

Qin Huairu hurried to the kitchen.

Wang Jianye picked up the wok with a towel under his head and put the freshly fried pork kidney on a plate. "It's just ready. Take it away."

"Ah."

Qin Huairu took the plate and went to serve the food.

Wang Jianye then proceeded to make the next dish.

It's quite busy at noon. After 1:30, there will be fewer customers coming to Fengze Garden for dinner, so the kitchen will be a little quieter.

It was not until five o'clock in the afternoon that customers gradually arrived at Fengze Garden and the kitchen became busy again.

Wang Jianye prepared the dishes one by one according to the customers' orders.

"The last dish, stir-fried shredded pork tenderloin. Let's go."

Wang Jianye put the last dish on the list onto the plate.

Qin Huairu came over and took the plate out.

After finishing his work, Wang Jianye sat aside and drank some tea to rest for a while.

"Brother Wang, I heard that you are going to hold a graduation banquet tomorrow night, right?"

Li Si and Feng Qingjie, seeing that Wang Jianye was free, took the initiative to come over.

Wang Jianye put down the enamel pot in his hand and asked, "It's tomorrow night, what's the matter?"

"Brother Wang, can I join in too?"

"Brother Wang, there's me too."

Li Si and Feng Qingjie looked at Wang Jianye eagerly.

One of them is an apprentice, and the other has just been promoted to the third-rank chef. They both really want to attend the graduation banquet of Wang Jianye, the second-rank chef.

"Okay, I'll just go and tell Master."

After Wang Jianye agreed, he stood up, said something to Chai Wenshan, and added the names of Li Si and Feng Qingjie to the list.

……

It’s time to get off work.

Wang Jianye stuffed two lunch boxes filled with meat and vegetables into his army green shoulder bag, and then walked out of the back kitchen door of Fengze Garden.

"Brother Wang."

Qin Huairu caught up.

Sha Zhu was fired yesterday, so she had no choice but to follow Wang Jianye.

Wang Jianye still had some questions to ask her, so he waited for her to walk over quickly, "Do you know why Sha Zhu was fired?"

Speaking of Sha Zhu, Qin Huairu showed a look of disdain, "You are talking about him."

Qin Huairu and Wang Jianye walked forward together. "He beat up Brother Xu, leaving him with a black eye and a swollen face. If it wasn't for Chef Zhao from the kitchen stopping him, Brother Xu would have definitely called the police."

Brother Xu pointed to the leader who entertained Xu Youliang.

Master Zhao refers to Zhao Zhirui. Some time ago, Sha Zhu asked Zhao Zhirui for help and arranged Qin Huairu to work in Fengze Garden.

"Why did that idiot hit him?"

Wang Jianye was very curious.

Although Sha Zhu is very powerful, he doesn't seem like the kind of person who would beat people up for no reason.

He knew clearly Xu Youliang's position in Fengze Garden, but he still took action.

It can be seen that he must have been very angry at the time and just did it without considering any consequences.
