Zheng Baozhu actually came back in the afternoon, but at that time the chefs in the kitchen hadn't finished get off work, so she didn't dare to enter the kitchen to make trouble. After dinner was over and all the chefs got off work, Zheng Baozhu could run in and occupy the kitchen.
At this time, she can only make some supper for everyone to eat. In fact, the room she lives in has a kitchen, but it is definitely not as spacious and bright as the hotel's kitchen, nor does it have such complete equipment and ingredients, so she still prefers to have a go in the hotel's large kitchen.
When Qu Zhi went in, Zheng Baozhu was waiting for her crispy pork belly to come out. The aroma of the barbecue is already very strong, and the taste alone is very greedy.
When Zheng Baozhu heard someone coming in, she turned her head to take a look. The two sat and stood one by one, staring at each other silently.
The atmosphere was a bit stagnant, Zheng Baozhu twitched the corners of his mouth, looked at him and asked, "Why are you here? The smell of my barbecue doesn't float into your room, right?"
Qu Zhi coughed dryly, stood there and said, "When I came back, the front desk told me that you made too many supper, so let me help."
Zheng Baozhu: "…"
Why can he say rubbing rice so fresh and refined!
The staff at the front desk did the same, why did they only call Qu Zhi when they didn't see others calling for a meal? Hehe, it's just for the sake of nibbling on CP!
She didn't understand, why would someone slap her and Qu Zhi's CP? Is it really so picky!
Zheng Baozhu complained in her heart and stood up from her small bench. She was happy tonight, she did make more, and it would be very distressing if she couldn't finish it and waste it.
"If you're lucky, I'm happy today." Zheng Baozhu walked over to a large pot and filled Qu Zhi with a bowl of porridge with a spoon, "This is the preserved egg and lean meat porridge I boiled.
The porridge has been kept in the pot to keep warm, but it was still hot, so Qu Zhi lifted the bowl and thanked Zheng Baozhu.
"I've also grilled a lot of barbecues, and they're all over there. What do you want to eat?" Zheng Baozhu said, guessing that her crispy pork belly was almost cooked, so she quickly put on gloves and took out the pork belly.
The two pieces of crispy pork belly were roasted very successfully, the crispy skin was golden brown and oily on top. As soon as the pork belly was taken out, the aroma was more intense than before, tempting people to move their index fingers.
The straight stomach growled.
The sound was not loud, but Zheng Baozhu heard it. She turned her head to look at Qu Zhi, and laughed wildly: "Did your stomach growl just now? My crispy pork belly is so charming, hahahaha."
"..." Qu Zhi pursed her lips, her expression froze, "I didn't eat dinner at night."
Zheng Baozhu was still laughing: "Have you worked overtime until now? It's so miserable hahaha."
Qu Zhi: "… "
After Zheng Baozhu finished laughing, she finally started to cut her crispy pork belly. Because the meat was roasted so crisply, the knife clacked when it was cut. After putting the sliced pork belly on a plate, Zheng Baozhu also put the dipping plate he made in advance on it.
"Try it." She raised her chin straight towards Qu.
Qu Zhi picked up a piece of crispy pork belly with chopsticks, wrapped it on the dipping plate, put it in his mouth and took a bite.
"Crack."
The pork belly made a crisp sound, and Qu Zhi's eyes moved.
Zheng Baozhu asked him, "How does it taste?"
Qu Zhi swallowed the crispy pork belly in his mouth and pursed the corners of his mouth slightly: "It's delicious."
Although Qu Zhi and Zheng Baozhu have many differences, their tastes are very compatible, and they both like spicy food. Zheng Baozhu snorted proudly after hearing what he said, "Of course, don't look at who did it."
She also tasted a piece of it herself, and the taste was really good, as expected of her!
Qu Zhi tasted the porridge she made again, and it was very delicious. To be honest, he didn't expect Zheng Baozhu's craftsmanship to be so good: "I don't see it, you are quite good at cooking."
"I learned it specially." Zheng Baozhu began to brag, "I almost finished the eight major cuisines back then."
"...Oh." Qu Zhi lowered his head and took another mouthful of porridge, "Because the chef of the restaurant ran away?"
Zheng Baozhu looked at him in surprise: "How do you know?"
Qu Zhi said: "The video of your last interview has been broadcast on the TV station."
"Really?" Zheng Baozhu's eyes widened in surprise, "I've been so busy these days that I forgot about it!"
She'll come and have a look when she goes back to the room.
"Am I very photogenic?" she asked Qu Zhi.
"..." Qu Zhi was speechless for a moment, then hummed vaguely, "I read the interview and said that the chef went out to open his own shop and then closed down?"
"That's right." Zheng Baozhu said, "It's not that easy to open a store. Do you know how many restaurants are closed every year in the country? One of them is Master Liao's."
Qu Zhi: "… "
He silently ate a piece of crispy pork belly and asked her curiously, "What happened to this Master Liao?"
Zheng Baozhu said, "Become the chef of our hotel."
"...Cough." Qu Zhi almost choked on the chili powder in his mouth, he coughed twice, feeling a little unbelievable, "He came back to you again?"
"Um."
"...And then you agreed?"
Zheng Baozhu laughed and looked straight: "Do you think this is Master Liao's embarrassment, or I'm embarrassed? If he wasn't desperate, he wouldn't come back to me."
Qu Zhi looked at her without making a sound, Zheng Baozhu picked up the chopsticks and took a piece of pork belly for himself: "Master Liao's craftsmanship is very good, when he first came to the restaurant, he didn't do anything wrong, I had a great time working with him. After the restaurant gradually gained some fame, one of his relatives approached him and urged him to open a restaurant by himself. Master Liao believed in his evil, borrowed a lot of money from relatives and friends in his hometown, and opened a restaurant by himself. In 2008, it closed down because of poor management. He urged his relatives to see that the momentum was not right and ran away, but Master Liao couldn't run away. Both his children went to school here, and the family was waiting for dinner. The relatives and friends of his hometown were urging him again. If he hadn't been forced to pay back the money, how could he have the cheek to come back to me."
Qu Zhi's eyes moved, he didn't expect Zheng Baozhu to think so, but he didn't seem to be surprised.
Zheng Baozhu continued: "After Master Liao left, I suffered a lot. There was only one apprentice in the kitchen at that time, and I couldn't recruit suitable people for a while. I could only remove some dishes from the menu. Then every day in the kitchen to help the elementary school apprentices, my craftsmanship can be practiced at that time. Just when the elementary school apprentice and I were about to endure, Master Zhao fell from the sky!"
Qu Zhi: "… "
Zheng Baozhu seemed to have awakened the emotions of the year, and said with relish: "Master Zhao's craftsmanship is also excellent, and he is not inferior to Master Liao! After he came, the pressure on our kitchen plummeted! At that time, our restaurant's customer traffic was already very high. If there is less, Master Zhao will rely on his few good dishes to turn the tide!"
"..." Qu Zhi still couldn't hold back, "You said you wanted to be an actor, wouldn't you be a cross talk actor?"
Zheng Baozhu: "…"
"Don't eat, don't eat, return the chopsticks to me." Zheng Baozhu said that he was about to put away the straight bowls and chopsticks. Qu Zhi protected his food and retreated.
"And then? Did your restaurant come back to life?" Qu Zhi asked seriously.
Zheng Baozhu snorted and said to him: "Of course, the restaurant over there is still in charge of Master Zhao, and the former apprentice has grown into a master chef who can be his own!"
"Oh, so you arranged Master Liao to the hotel?"
Zheng Baozhu said: "It was also Master Liao who had good luck. I was preparing for the hotel at the time. Master Liao was also a man of gratitude. When the hotel opened up wasteland, he brought his family to help. Live less. Over the years, he has also worked diligently here and paid off all the debts owed by his hometown."
Qu Zhi lowered his eyes slightly and said, "Give someone a rose, and there is a fragrance in your hand."
"Wow." Zheng Baozhu looked at him in surprise, "Are you complimenting me?"
"..." Qu Zhi let out a low cough, her expression a little uncomfortable. He raised his hand and loosened the first button of his neckline, feeling that his breathing was still a little difficult.
Xiaoyu, who was smelling the aroma of barbecue outside, wanted to share some pork belly, but she saw Qu Zhi unbuttoning her clothes at the door of the kitchen!
She shrank back silently, thinking about it, forget it, isn't it just a barbecue, how can her CP fall in love! She was about to retreat when Zheng Baozhu glanced at her: "Xiaoyu."
She called out, and Xiaoyu could only bite the bullet and come back: "Miss Baozhu."
Zheng Baozhu smiled at her: "Are you here to get the crispy pork belly?" She pushed a plate of untouched pork belly over: "I've already cut it up, you can bring this plate to eat."
"Thank you, Miss Baozhu!" Xiaoyu walked away happily holding the pork belly. Qu Zhi stood up and said to Zheng Baozhu, "I also bring it back to the room to eat."
"Oh." Zheng Baozhu responded and started to clean up the kitchen. If the chefs come to work tomorrow and see a messy kitchen, they will definitely have to talk to her again.
Qu Zhi took a plate, put porridge and some snacks in it, and went out with the plate. When he reached the door, he turned around again and glanced at Zheng Baozhu who was cleaning up the table.
Aware of his gaze, Zheng Baozhu raised his eyes to look in his direction, Qu Zhi quickly retracted his gaze, and left in a hurry.
"..." Zheng Baozhu felt that Qu Zhi was really inexplicable recently.
Xiaoyu ate a lot of good things this night, and the next morning she left her shift satisfied and went back to her room to sleep. She slept until almost noon and woke up, lazily brushing around with her phone.
A second-hand trading app suddenly rang, and Xiaoyu's account received a new message.
Recently, she just helped Liang Huihui hang the necklace and scarf, and people come to ask from time to time, but because these two things are relatively expensive, they have not been sold yet.
As soon as the APP rang today, Xiaoyu thought to ask the price again, but when she opened the private chat, she showed her spirit.
The person looking for her on the opposite side turned out to be Li Yifan!
Xiao Yu quickly sat up from the bed and watched the news of Li Yifan being sent one after another.
"Huihui, I'm Li Yifan, is this account yours?"
"Why did you delete all my contact information? I have something to tell you, can you add me back?"
"I know it's my fault. I've reflected on it. Can you forgive me?"
This makes Xiaoyu so angry that the scumbag still wants to find Huihui to get back together? Pooh!
Xiaoyu: Forgive you, der! And add you back? Do your Spring and Autumn Dream!
Xiaoyu: Not only will I not add it back, but I will also block your account! Go, spicy chicken!
After Xiaoyu scolded, he directly blocked Li Yifan's account.
After this operation, Xiao Yu was refreshed. It's fun to be a scumbag.
But how did he find it here? Is it because you recognized the necklace and scarf? Hmm... very likely. Fortunately, she helped Huihui to get online, otherwise if this scumbag really finds Huihui, Huihui may forgive him if she is soft-hearted!
Xiaoyu decided to let this matter rot in her stomach, hiding her merit and fame.
At this time, Zheng Baozhu was chatting with Cen Tongtong on the Internet.
Cen Tongtong: [Group chat record]
Cen Tongtong: See for yourself, see for yourself! Last time, Qu Zhi pressed you on the sofa, this time Qu Zhi started to unbutton it!
Zheng Baozhu: "…"
It must be Xiaoyu who spread rumors in the group!
She clicked into the chat log and looked at it. It was really Xiao Yu. She added oil and vinegar to the group and talked nonsense, as if she was writing a romance novel!
Zheng Baozhu understands it, and they all rely on their imagination if they dare to love CP!
Cen Tongtong: Baozhu, I am disappointed in you [smile]
Cen Tongtong: Think about it, why did you and Qu Zhi come this far [smile]
Zheng Baozhu: …
Cen Tongtong: I hope you can understand the truth, people who eat keyboards will die.
Zheng Baozhu: "…"
After a friendly communication with Cen Tongtong, she was busy dealing with the food delivery robot. Last time she promised Qi Sheng to buy his food delivery robot. Qi Sheng had already prepared the robot and the contract, and was waiting for her money to arrive.
The robot needs to be networked with the hotel, and some data needs to be debugged. Qi Sheng brought the robot to the hotel in person. Because it is mainly to deliver food to customers, he also taught the front desk staff how to use the robot.
Zheng Baozhu gathered all the front desk staff to learn how to use it with Qi Sheng.
"Our robot is very simple to use. Just press the door button to open the hatch. Put the food inside, enter the room number, and then press the close button, and it will automatically go to the room to deliver the food."
When he explained, all the colleagues in the catering department were around him, looking at him coldly, especially Liang Huihui's eyes that stood out. She just met a scumbag not long ago, and it took a long time to recover. Today, she encouraged herself, saying that Miss Baozhu is so good, she is still studying for exams, she has to work hard!
As a result, Qi Sheng came with this thing in the afternoon.
She glanced coldly at the two round and silly robots and asked, "They have no hands or feet, how do they get up and down the elevator?"
Other colleagues in the catering department began to chime in.
Qi Sheng wiped the sweat on his forehead and said to them, "Because it is connected to the hotel, when you get on the elevator, the elevator will automatically open the door and press the floor."
"Then how did it notify customers that the takeaway was delivered?" Liang Huihui asked again.
Qi Sheng said: "When you arrive at the door of the room, you will automatically call the room. When the guest receives the call, they can open the door to get takeout."
Liang Huihui curled her lips: "Then the guests may not be able to use it."
"Our operations are very simple, and they have a voice system, which will prompt guests step by step what to do." After that, he added to the staff at the front desk, "In addition to delivering food, what do guests usually ask for? If you send them up, you can also use them, which can reduce your workload a lot."
Liang Huihui whispered: "When the workload is reduced, I will be unemployed."
Qi Sheng: "…"
He said last time that it is an inevitable trend that machines will gradually replace some human jobs. Of course, this is really not so easy for humans to accept.
"Don't worry, Huihui, they are not food delivery robots for restaurants, and you will not lose your jobs." Zheng Baozhu comforted Liang Huihui, she knew that it was not easy for everyone to work, and no one wanted to lose their jobs.
However, she herself is still very interested in this robot, because this product has not yet been widely popularized, so the guests staying will also be interested in it, which can become a selling point to attract guests. And I have to admit that the cost of robots is indeed much lower than that of manual labor.
Before the robot officially starts to work, Qi Sheng has to test it again, and some debugging work has not been completed, so the robot is still in a dormant state for the time being. After he explained to the staff at the front desk, he let the robot put it away. Liang Huihui was still standing there looking at him, almost treating him as a class enemy.
He walked up and smiled at Liang Huihui: "I'm just an ordinary scientific researcher. There are many other people who are developing this robot besides me."
Liang Huihui said, "But people didn't come to our hotel to sell them."
"..." Qi Sheng smiled, "In order to thank Miss Baozhu for taking care of my business, I'll invite you to dinner tonight, so come along too."
Liang Huihui snorted: "Hmph, honest people won't get eaten."
Qi Sheng: "…"
