Infinite Predator of the Heavens

Chapter 260 Provisioning
The cook of Zuiming Tower is Ge Dachu.

He never dreamed that he had done a good job in Zuiming Tower, but someone would want to poach him away.

Just dig it away, but is it necessary to give the boss of Zuiming Tower three gems?
If you give this gem to yourself, even if you only give one, then you can just think of an excuse, and you will resign from Zuiminglou?

Hearing that Tao Haoran actually used three gems to ask the boss of Zuiming Tower to let him go, Ge Dachu felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if he had lost three gems. He was so painful that he couldn't breathe.

But things are already like this, it is obviously unrealistic to ask the boss to get back the three gems now.

So he had no choice but to pack up his things and leave sullenly.

But after tidying up, his mood became better again, because he thought of it, since Tao Haoran can take out three gems casually, it goes without saying that he must be a rich man, working as a cook in such a rich man's family , isn't that full of oil and water?No matter what, it's better than being in Zuiming Building, right?
Although Zuiming Building can also let him do some cooking, he is not the only cook here. He used too much cooking before, and was discovered by the boss. Now that I think about it, the boss doesn’t often come to the back kitchen. How did you find out?

It must be in the back kitchen, where the boss's eyeliner has been placed.

So it's good to change the environment, change the environment, and change to a new boss, maybe you can get more oil and water.

Thinking of this, he quickly packed his things, said hello to a few chefs who were friendly with him, and said goodbye one by one, then he carried his burden and walked out of Zui Ming with Tao Haoran Xiaojiu and the others. building.

The owner of the Zuiming Tower sent them out of the gate with utmost hospitality, and kept shouting from behind: "Come to Zuiminglou often when you are free. From now on, Zuiminglou will give Master Tao the biggest discount, and only charge half of the meal fee." !"

Tao Haoran didn't look back when he heard the words, he just waved his hands, and made a comment to the owner of Zuiminglou: "It's really picky!"

His assessment was absolutely right.

Although Tao Haoran doesn't know the specific value of gemstones, he also knows that this kind of gemstones are polished and cut by modern machines in the earth jewelry store, and finally designed by some masters. The gemstones finally presented are definitely of great value.

It takes at least hundreds of thousands of soft sister coins to buy one on the earth, and three add up to several million.

Let alone digging up one Ge Dachu, even ten of them would be more than enough money.

For example, with the extra money, even if Tao Haoran eats at Zuiminglou for free for life, the boss will still make money, and it can completely improve Tao Haoran's impression.

The boss of the Zuiming Tower also knew that Tao Haoran was a powerful person because of his outstanding skills, but due to his limitations, he only knew how to smile at each other and try to please him, but he couldn't really impress Tao Haoran.

He thought it would be a great favor to give Tao Haoran half the price of his meals, but he didn't know that this still made Tao Haoran unhappy.

Either the bill will be free, or the full price will be charged, or half price. It's really a bit of a bargain, and it seems that Tao Haoran can't afford it.

Leaving the boss behind, Tao Haoran chatted with Ge Dachu about the kitchen.

When they were talking, Xiaojiu and others took the initiative to take over Ge Dachu's burden. After all, Ge Dachu was not a servant who sold himself, but a hired cook who was a good citizen. In addition, he entered the Tao Mansion and was in charge of what everyone eats. What kind of person is he drinking? Such a person must be well served.

Of course, Xiao Jiu is also Tao Haoran's appointed steward, so the work of carrying things and burdens falls on Xiao Si and Xiao Wu.

Ge Dachu told Tao Haoran that it is not enough for him to be the only one in the kitchen, and he has to hire two or three helpers anyway, because Tao Haoran told him that Tao Mansion is a courtyard with five entrances, and there are already more than 20 people in it. , there may be more people in the future. It is difficult for Ge Dachu to cook meals for more than 20 people by himself, but it does not give him time to carefully craft the meals. He will never be able to make the first dish. Let it go, the last dish is done, the first dish is cold, right?

Tao Haoran thought about it and felt that what Ge Dachu said was right. Even if he no longer hired a few cooks, he would have to hire a few more helpers. He couldn't be a master chef, and he had to wash, pick and cut the vegetables himself. This kind of work, right?

So Tao Haoran readily agreed, and he felt that hiring two more chefs and helpers would be enough to hire five, which would also make the kitchen of his Tao Mansion large.

Tao Haoran directly handed over this matter to Ge Dachu, and after Ge Dachu settled down, he made his own choice.

The two chefs will follow Ge Dachu and let Ge Dachu manage it. When Ge Dachu cooks the main course, the two sous chefs will cook some other dishes. Otherwise, if you only eat the dishes of one chef, you will always get tired of it.

When Ge Dachu heard this, he was naturally overjoyed. He kept saying thank you to the master for trusting him. He would definitely cook his own dishes well in the future and satisfy everyone in the master's house.

Next, Tao Haoran did not take the people back home immediately, but wandered to Yahang again.

Naturally, Tao Haoran was still thinking about his housekeeper. When he took Yuqin Xiaojiu and others away, he talked nonsense to Liang Bao, and wanted to help him find a housekeeper.

Although Liang Jihu really wanted to earn Tao Haoran's money, the matter of the housekeeper was really not easy to handle.

Housekeepers are generally men, and women are basically housekeepers in the back house, but they are promoted from the ranks of maids and have been trained for many years before they can be competent.

And it's basically just managing the back house. You can't let a woman take care of the male servants in the front house, right?
At that time, Tao Haoran thought it was reasonable, but he still asked Liang Jihu to help him find one. If there is no suitable one, then forget it. If there is a suitable one, he must be notified.

After finishing speaking, Tao Haoran gave Hu Shiliang of silver back.

Two Husbands can only say to help and pay attention, but it is not guaranteed that they will actually meet.

This time, Tao Haoran turned to the tooth shop because he wanted to ask two people, but when he thought about the things he only explained to others in the morning, how could he have a clue in the afternoon, he was a little too anxious.

So he shook his head, left the dental shop again, and turned to the stalls of the vegetable vendors.

There is nothing in the Tao Mansion now. There are only some furniture and bedding, which is enough to live in, but it is impossible to live.

So he asked Ge Dachu to be responsible for buying a la carte, chicken, duck, fish, and other expensive materials, and then directly gave Ge Dachu a 500 tael silver ticket.

It was enough for him to buy these cooking materials.

Ge Dachu is regarded as a new cook, so naturally he sticks to his duties, dare not touch oil at this time, buys like crazy, and the three of them can't take it when he buys Xiaojiu. give up.

Then when I looked at the cost, it only cost more than 100 taels.

Several people, including Tao Haoran, were carrying their things, so they had no choice but to go home first.

When he arrived at Tao Mansion, Ge Dachu was surprised again.

He had never entered such a big house before.

He used to work as a cook in several ordinary gentry's homes, and then he went to Zui Ming Lou.

But even those wealthy gentry are nothing compared to the Tao Mansion. Tao Mansion is bigger than the homes of those noble gentry if they just take it out and enter the courtyard twice.

A group of people entered the house, Tao Haoran asked Xiao Jiu to lead Ge Dachu to the kitchen, and then went back to the inner house by himself.

Entering the inner house, I immediately saw a group of Yingying and Yanyan. Although those maids are still young, they are not young in this world.

Except for two or three who are only twelve or thirteen years old, the rest are fourteen, fiveteen, sixteen or seventeen-year-old maids. In this world, they are all able to get married and even have children.

They were all wearing the clothes bought for them by the dentist before. They were all uniform, but they were pretty and pleasant.

Seeing them, Tao Haoran realized that he really left the earth and settled down in this world.

"However, we can't let them wear these clothes all the time. We still have to buy a few new sets of clothes and let them throw away all the old clothes."

Tao Haoran was thinking as he went straight back to the bedroom in the main house.

After all, these maidservants are already from the Tao Mansion, and have nothing to do with the Yahang, so they must be wearing the clothes of the Yahang, and they must still see things and think about people, and think about the things about the Yahang.

After confirming a task to be done, Tao Haoran stretched his waist, and then suddenly found that Yuqin followed him into the bedroom and stood aside, which surprised him.

"you……"

Tao Haoran didn't know what to say for a while, he was a little surprised.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Yuqin asked in a daze.

"Oh, nothing."

Tao Haoran waved his hand, and thought to himself: "Could it be that this maid wants to recommend herself as a pillow mat? Why did you follow me into the bedroom? Well... that's right, these maids are already considered members of the Tao Mansion, and their status is in my In my hand, as long as I don't sell them, they will live in my Tao Mansion for the rest of their lives.

And now there is no mistress in Tao Mansion, if they work hard and climb into my bed, wouldn't they be able to be mistresses?At worst, you can also be a concubine or something, better than a maid, right? "

Thinking of this, Tao Haoran looked at Yuqin quite eagerly.

Yuqin lowered her head shyly after seeing him.

"No, no, how big is this? I'm a bit of a beast, so I have to find someone as big as me!"

Looking at Yuqin's shy expression, Tao Haoran suddenly remembered that this Yuqin was only a junior high school student, and when he thought about how he wanted to do her, he was shocked.

He coughed quickly and said, "By the way, Yuqin, please remember, there are a few things to do tomorrow."

"Okay sir, please tell me, sir."

Yuqin said softly.

"The first thing is to buy some fabrics. Pick up better ones and buy them. My master is not short of money. Buy more, and then hire a few tailors to make a few sets of clothes for me and you."

Tao Haoran said: "Second point, besides hiring a tailor, you also need to hire some old ladies to do some rough work, such as washing clothes. I can't let you maids do it."

"Well, that's all I've thought of for the time being, and I'll think about it later. Besides, you should write it down first. You can do it tomorrow and go shopping. If you don't want to show your face, you can let Xiaojiu do it."

"Good master, these slaves have all been written down."

Yuqin memorized it carefully, and then said: "This slave can go out, but for the sake of rules, I suggest that the master should assign some duties to the remaining maids as soon as possible, such as purchasing, cleaning, etc. She is responsible for the food and clothing in the house. Nowadays, if there are not many, a servant can take charge of them. If there are too many clothes, a dedicated maid will still be responsible."

"Hmm, what you said makes sense, I will leave these to you, and you can assign tasks and duties to those maids. Anyway, you are the big maid I promoted. If there is anything, I will just come to you gone."

Tao Haoran nodded, and simply became the hands-off shopkeeper. Anyway, he is from the earth, and he is not very clear about the responsibilities of the servants in the ancient mansion.

This is the so-called decentralization, Tao Haoran thought to himself.

In the evening, of course, Ge Dachu used the freshly bought vegetables and meat to cook a large table full of dishes, most of which were his specialties. If it weren't for some seasonings, Tao Mansion doesn't have all the dishes here, and it is estimated that he can make more dishes. Many dishes are delicious to come.

But even with these, Tao Haoran has already enjoyed it.

As usual, Tao Haoran ate with the maids, and then ordered the cook to cook for Xiaojiu, the servants in the front house, and the cook himself.

Although Ge Dachu was very surprised, how could the maids of the Tao Mansion eat one table with the master, and the servants such as Xiaojiu eat one table? According to other houses, the master had one table, and the servants had different tables according to their rank.

Leaders of maids like Yuqin and Xiaojiu would naturally eat by themselves. Of course, it was Xiaoxi, while Xiaosixiaowu, or servant girls like Tinghua, they would eat together.

However, he was just a cook, and he just listened to whatever the master ordered, so he didn't take these things to heart.

That night, a maid made the bed and wanted to undress Tao Haoran, but he was still not used to it, so he drove the maid out and took off his clothes to sleep.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, Yuqin cooperated with Xiaojiu and bought a lot of things for Taofu.

At the same time, he went to the dental shop, hired some servants, and filled them into the back house.

You can't find housekeepers in dental shops, but ordinary maids are easy to find.

In addition, Ge Dachu had already said yesterday that there were not enough condiments in the house, so he asked Ge Dachu to follow along and bought some necessary condiments and some fresh ingredients.

At the same time, rice, noodles, oil, kitchen utensils, etc., were all bought back.

The cloth has also been bought, but tailors are a bit hard to find, only in the afternoon did I find two women who can tailor, and invite them to the mansion together.
