Just as Ye Chui guessed, the reason why Manhan Lou had difficulty recruiting chefs above three stars was because Shenghuayuan was secretly obstructing it. Although Manhan Lou had three six-star chefs, news came from Shenghuayuan that whoever joined Manhan Lou would be against Shenghuayuan. After all, Shenghuayuan's influence was huge. No matter how good Manhan Lou was, it was just a new hotel with an uncertain future. It would be more troublesome to offend Shenghuayuan.
What Gao Yuesheng wants to do is not just to block the chef resources, his ultimate target is still Qin Yiyue.
Not only did Ye Chui snatch away the chef that Sheng Hua Yuan had long valued, but Ye Chui also told Gao Yuesheng on the phone, "Qin Yiyue will join my Man Han Lou. Not to mention the owner of a six-star hotel, even if the president of the Food Association comes, don't even think about interfering in this matter!" This made Gao Yuesheng indescribably angry.
How dare a 16 or 17-year-old boy say such a thing? Even if he has the support of Old Han, what can he do
Although Mr. Han has a great influence, his name is not omnipotent. Gao Yuesheng wants to teach this ignorant young man a good lesson!
Gao Yuesheng's conspiracy is brewing...
Ye Cui was preparing to return to Xizhou at this time.
The school where Lin Wei, Anjing and Wang Shiyu are studying has already had winter vacation, so Ye Chui went to pick them up and brought them to Yanjing. Ye Chui also asked Mr. Han to help them find a school to attend in Yanjing. It is very close to Manhan Building, and it only takes five minutes to go to and from school. When school starts after the New Year, the three of them will go to the new school.
Ye Chui went back to Xizhou at this time to pick up the three of them and bring them to Yanjing. Of course, Tian Xiaodu also came back with them.
Xiaoyu’s home-cooked meals also need to be formally handed over.
"Xiaoxiao, while I'm away, you should practice your knife skills. Cut ten radishes for me every day, and make sure the shredded radishes are all the same size. Qin Yiyue will supervise you." Ye Chui solemnly instructed An Xiaoxiao before going back.
An Xiaoxiao has a talent for cooking, but her basics are very poor. Without systematic practice, Ye Chui has to train her from scratch.
"Master, can you teach me something more advanced? Cutting radish into shreds is troublesome." An Xiaoxiao said reluctantly. She preferred to start cooking directly.
"The basics are of utmost importance. Your knife skills are too poor. Even if you can make delicious dishes, it won't be a good thing. First, practice your skills well and then I will teach you the rest." Ye Chui said seriously.
Han Yuyan also chimed in, "Yes, Xiaoxiao, a chef's knife skills are the most important, and you must lay a good foundation first."
"Oh, okay." An Xiaoxiao nodded a little depressed.
Han Yuyan immediately became happy, and felt that she was a very competent senior sister... But she soon stopped being happy, because Ye Chui immediately said to her: "Dayu, you should also cut ten radishes for me every day like Xiaoxiao, and practice your knife skills first."
"No way, Master." Han Yuyan said miserably, "My sword skills are already pretty good..."
"Haha, cut a radish for me first." Ye Chui pointed to the chopping board.
"..." Han Yuyan suddenly looked miserable, "Okay, I will cut ten radishes every day like Xiaoxiao."
After instructing his two disciples on what to do, Ye Chui simply packed some luggage and set off back to Xizhou.
After a five-hour train ride, Ye Chui got off at Xizhou Railway Station and walked out of the surging crowd. At a glance, Ye Chui saw Lin Wei, Anjing and Wang Shiyu waiting outside the station. They hadn't seen each other for nearly a month, and Ye Chui missed his girlfriend and his two sisters very much. He rushed over and hugged the three of them. Finally, he held Wang Shiyu's hand with one hand and Lin Wei's hand with the other, and left the station talking and laughing.
Outside the station, Yu Yan drove the car and was already waiting there.
The car drove towards Xiaoyu Home Cooking Restaurant.
On the way, Ye Cui talked about some things that happened in Yanjing. He downplayed the difficulties faced by Fan Hong as he did not want to worry the three. Lin Wei, An Jing and Wang Shiyu had already learned about An Xiaoxiao's affairs from Han Yuyan's phone call, and they were very curious about Ye Cui's new apprentice.
"Brother, can An Xiaoxiao really eat three steamed buns in one go?" Wang Shiyu asked Ye Chui mischievously.
Ye Chui was sweating profusely: "Is this what Dayu told you... It is indeed true."
After all, having been a beggar for more than ten years, An Xiaoxiao's eating was indeed a spectacle. Although she was small in size, she could eat three large steamed buns in one breath, which made Ye Chui and Han Yuyan wonder how she could do that with such a small stomach...
Wang Shiyu immediately showed an admiring expression: "Cool!"
Ye Chui continued sweating: "Don't learn this kind of thing from her..."
It was obvious that Lin Wei, Wang Shiyu and An Jing were all very interested in An Xiaoxiao. What made Ye Chu feel particularly good about these girls around him was that they would never discriminate against An Xiaoxiao just because she used to be a beggar. They could not wait to make friends with An Xiaoxiao. To them, An Xiaoxiao was a very interesting person.
The car went all the way back to Xiaoyu's Home Cooking Restaurant.
When getting off the car and walking into the hotel, Ye Chui was somewhat surprised to see two people sitting in the hotel: one was Lin Zhengdao, and the other was Wei Yi, who was also a shareholder of Lin's Enterprise.
"Dad is going to take over Xiaoyu Home Cooking. He has been helping to run the restaurant these past two days. Aunt Wei Yi came this morning." Lin Wei explained to Ye Chui in a low voice, "I heard that when she was young, Aunt Wei Yi liked Dad very much."
"I think you like it now too." Ye Chui said in a low voice.
The main reason why Lin Zhengdao was able to turn the tables in the "Hongmen Banquet" set up by Zhang Hantao was Wei Yi's help. At that time, Wei Yi helped Lin Zhengdao sell 7% of Zhang Hantao's shares at a sky-high price, allowing Lin Zhengdao to earn 1 billion from Zhang Hantao. This had no other benefits for Wei Yi. She did this entirely because she still had love for Lin Zhengdao.
Lin Zhengdao has now dealt with the handover issues of Lin's Enterprise, officially resigned, and returned to Xizhou City not long ago.
Seeing Ye Chui coming back, he stood up and greeted him with a smile: "You're back."
"Mr. Lin Bofu." Ye Chui also said quickly, looking at Wei Yi, "Hello, Miss Wei."
"Haha, hello." Wei Yi said with a smile, looking at Ye Chui. This woman has a charm of her own and is full of a certain temptation. The look she gave Ye Chui seemed to carry a faint sense of charm.
Lin Zhengdao laughed and continued, "Wei Yi, you are in for a treat this time. Ye Chui's cooking skills are very good. Let him cook a delicious meal tonight. It will definitely be worth your trip."
Wei Yi chuckled and nodded, saying, "I never had the chance to taste it when I was in Honglou, so I will definitely enjoy it this time."
"Aunt Wei, I can also help Ye Chui cook." Lin Wei said with a smile. She knew that Wei Yi had helped her father a lot and was very grateful to this aunt.
However, the title of Aunt Wei obviously made Wei Yi very unhappy. She said with a slightly annoyed look on her face: "Auntie... Oh, am I already an auntie?"
Lin Zhengdao glanced at Wei Yi with a somewhat embarrassed smile: "You are not young anymore, you should think about your future."
Wei Yi glared at Lin Zhengdao and said, "I am still the only one in the Gu family because of you... You have to take responsibility for this." She rolled her eyes suddenly and said half-jokingly, "I heard that you are planning to take over this small restaurant. How about I work for you in the future?"
Lin Zhengdao, the business tycoon, immediately changed his expression: "Wei Yi, are you joking? Um... I need to discuss this with Hai Mei."
"Humph." Wei Yi said angrily, "I don't have the leisure time like you. You don't want to be a big businessman, but you want to open a small restaurant here. I don't know what you are thinking."
Lin Zhengdao smiled awkwardly and shook his head without explaining.
"In fact, my mother also knows about Aunt Wei's situation in Xizhou. She called me yesterday and asked me to supervise Dad and Aunt Wei." When following Ye Chui to the kitchen, Lin Wei whispered to Ye Chui, secretly looking at the two people outside, "But I think Aunt Wei and Dad are just friends now, so there is no need to worry about anything."
Ye Chui followed suit and smiled. Lin Zhengdao was naturally very restrained, so there was no need to worry about them accidentally starting a fight. However, Ye Chui could see that although Wei Yi always looked like a coquettish woman, she was deeply in love with Lin Zhengdao, otherwise she would not have helped Lin Zhengdao like this.
Now that Lin Zhengdao has withdrawn from the Yanjing business circle, it might be a good thing for Wei Yi, allowing her to settle down and plan for her future.
Then Ye Chui laughed again: "Has your father really decided to take over this small restaurant? Opening a restaurant and being a chef is very tiring."
"My dad has made up his mind, and my mom also thinks it's interesting." Lin Wei nodded and said with a smile, "Dad's cooking skills are really good. He has been practicing cooking with Uncle Tian these two days, and Uncle Tian praised his cooking skills."
Tian Xiaodu, who was chopping vegetables on the chopping board next to him, nodded with a smile and said, "That's true. Mr. Lin has a two-star chef certificate. Although he hasn't touched a kitchen knife for a long time, his skills are still there. It's more than enough for him to run this small restaurant."
"If uncle likes it, then let him do it." Ye Chui said with a smile, thinking that Xiaoyu's home cooking was really extraordinary. It was previously managed by a five-star chef and him, the god of food in his previous life. Now the boss has changed and is a billionaire...
This level and grade cannot be compared with ordinary big hotels.
In the kitchen, Ye Chui was preparing to make a few of his signature dishes when his cell phone suddenly rang.
It's an unfamiliar number.
After Ye Chu answered the call strangely, Gao Yuesheng's voice came from the other end.
"Mr. Ye." Gao Yuesheng suddenly heard a somewhat elegant voice coming over, "I heard that your restaurant is about to open, but you haven't been able to recruit a chef?"
Ye Chui's expression changed, and he said with a smile: "What can Boss Gao do for you?"
"Haha, we are all in the same industry. Since you have difficulties here, I will certainly not ignore you," Gao Yuesheng's voice suddenly turned cold, "I can provide you with a few chefs, Mr. Ye, but..." (~^~)
