The gourmet master on the tongue

Baohua Hospital.

Zhuang Hanhua ward on the VIP floor of the Department of Cardiology.

Zhuang Hanhua looked at the delicious four dishes and one soup in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Is this made by the chef of that Yanran restaurant?" Zhuang Hanhua asked.

"That's right, Master Yan from Yan Ran Xiaoguan did it. Dr. Qu has already tested it, and all of them meet the standards." Xiao Zhao replied.

"Dad, I tried all these dishes yesterday, and they taste very good!" Zhuang Yiming said.

A curious smile appeared on Zhuang Hanhua's face, he impatiently picked up the chopsticks, took a piece of minced meat tofu box and tasted it.

"En! The taste is really good!" Zhuang Hanhua nodded in praise.

Zhuang Hanhua wiped out the delicacies in front of him like a storm. If his son hadn't supervised and blocked him, he would have eaten all the four dishes and one soup.

"Dad, you can't eat too much at one time, it's not good for your health and you will suffer from indigestion." Zhuang Yiming said.

Zhuang Hanhua looked at the delicacies on the table, hesitated for a long time, and put down the chopsticks in his hands helplessly.

"Yi Ming, I'm going to eat this again tomorrow." Zhuang Hanhua said.

"Okay, no problem!" Zhuang Yiming replied.

In the next few days, Yan Ran would go to the dealer to cook a meal every day until Zhuang Hanhua could no longer eat before the operation.

And Zhuang Yiming also took advantage of this to eat several delicious meals.

Zhuang Yiming originally wanted to leave a message and cook at the dealer, but he refused as expected, so he had no choice but to give up.

Huo Songcheng finally did not lose his job immediately.

The demand for nutritious porridge is increasing. Under the suggestion of He Jinrui, Yan Ran decided to invest in the establishment of a central kitchen, specializing in the production of nutritious porridge.

In the evening, He Jinrui came to Yanran Restaurant.

"Yan Ran, are you ready? I'll take you somewhere." He Jinrui said.

"Where are you going?" Yan Ran asked.

"You'll know when you go." He Jinrui smiled.

Yan Ran then set off with He Jinrui.

After driving almost two kilometers on the road, He Jinrui brought Yanran to a factory building.

"This is our original food warehouse. Later, the company got bigger and there was not enough space, so we changed the place. Our company's lease is still half a year away, but I know the landlord very well, and I have the priority to renew the contract. If you think it's okay , the central kitchen can be located here." He Jinrui said.

Yan Ran looked at the surrounding environment: "How big is this factory building?"

"More than 3000 square meters." He Jinrui said.

"So big?!" Yan Ran was taken aback.

"From the current point of view, it is indeed a bit bigger, but I think with your current development, you will definitely expand the scale in a short time. Instead of constantly moving at that time, it is better to choose a good place from the beginning." He Jinrui said.

"That's right, but it's too big." Yan Ran frowned slightly.

"A central kitchen with an area of ​​more than 3000 square meters costs a lot of rent, right?" Yan Ran asked.

"In terms of rent, it's about 5 yuan per flat here, more than 3000 square meters, and the monthly rent is about [-] yuan." He Jinrui said.

"5 yuan per level? So cheap?" Yan Ran blinked.

"Shops are different from factory buildings. The economy has been bad in recent years, and many factories have closed down. There are many vacant factories on the market, and it is actually difficult to rent out such a large factory building. Not many companies can afford it. There are several small workshops with several hundred square meters, but it will cost a lot of reconstruction costs, and it may not be possible to rent them all out, so the landlord is the favorite if you rent the whole thing." He Jinrui explained.

"20 a month, [-] a year..." Yan Ran made up his mind and said with a smack of tongue.

"Listen to me first, actually I want to cooperate with you." He Jinrui said.

"Cooperation?" Yan Ran was stunned.

"Opening a central kitchen requires dealing with a lot of people and spending a lot of time managing it. I think I am more experienced than you in this regard. You have to cook every day and run Yanran Restaurant, so you probably don't have much time to manage the central kitchen. , Food safety is very important, you must always pay attention to it, I can help you in this regard." He Jinrui said.

Yan Ran nodded slightly.

"In addition, there is also the aspect of ingredients. Cooperating with Xianmanyuan, the cost of ingredients must be cheaper than purchasing from the market, and cheaper than the employee's price! This way, we can squeeze out a lot of profits." He Jinrui continued.

"The most important thing is that we are already cooperating. You know the results of the pig's head dumpling. It's very good. Your cooking skills plus our company's management, channels, distribution, etc. are definitely a win-win situation!" He Jinrui said.

Yan Ran looked at him thoughtfully after listening, and didn't speak for a long time.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" He Jinrui felt uncomfortable being watched.

"No, I was thinking, if you are so smart, will I be sold by you one day, and then count the money for you." Yan Ran said with a smile.

"It's possible! I'm going to sell you to a rich woman." He Jinrui joked.

"Really? But I don't like rich women, I like rich men, help me find a rich man!" Yan Ran teased.

"Okay!" He Jinrui replied with a smile.

He rolled his eyes, as if thinking about something.

Yan Ran pretended to be looking at the factory casually, while secretly observing He Jinrui from the corner of his eye.

Although his words were joking, there were also some unspoken thoughts hidden in them.

"Is that the deal on the cooperation?" Yan Ran said.

"Okay, the share ratio of the pig's head dumpling is the same, is that okay?" He Jinrui asked.

Yan Ran immediately made an "OK" gesture.

Yan Ran small restaurant.

Yan Ran was making Shaoxing chicken porridge.

Little Shaoxing chicken porridge originated in Shanghai. It is a local characteristic traditional snack. It is made from chicken broth and high-quality white japonica rice. It is a delicious and nutritious tonic.

Not far from the street, a Mercedes-Benz nanny car drove towards Miaokou Food Street without haste.

In the back seat were two young people, a middle-aged man, and an old lady.

All four of them are dressed in extraordinary clothes, the young are fashionable, and the old lady is luxurious.

"Mom, the Miaokou Food Street is in front of you." The middle-aged man Zhong Haodong said.

The old lady looked through the car window and nodded lightly.

"Grandma, there are many delicious things in Miaokou Food Street. There are pork belly chicken, bucket chicken, braised pork, roast duck, and many more. There is also a very famous snack bar called Yanran Restaurant. Every week, a new snack is sold, which is very delicious." Zhong Xue, a girl among the two young people, said excitedly to the old lady.

"Mom, do you want to go in and have a look?" Zhong Haodong asked.

"No, I just finished climbing the mountain and I'm tired, let's go back!" said the old lady.

"Aren't you going to the food street?" Zhong Xue was a little disappointed.

The old lady smiled: "If you want to go, let the driver take you in later."

"But I want to go with grandma, grandma finally came here once, I want to take you to eat delicious food!" Zhong Xue said.

"But grandma is indeed a little tired today. Let's go tomorrow. You can come with grandma tomorrow." The old lady said with a smile.

"Okay! Then let's agree!" Zhong Xue said happily.

"Well, it's done." The old lady nodded.

At this time, the car drove past the intersection of the food street.

Zhong Jie, a young man sitting by the window, pressed down the window in boredom.

A faint fragrance floated in the air.

The old lady smelled it, and sat up slightly: "What is this smell?"

Others in the car sniffed the fragrance in the air one after another.

"Grandma, this smells delicious, why don't we go in and have a look?" Zhong Xue said immediately.

The old lady was obviously very interested in this fragrance, and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Driver, turn back and enter the temple entrance." Zhong Haodong said.

The driver immediately turned the car around and drove into Miaokou Food Street.

The old lady seemed very nervous, she raised her neck and kept looking outside, looking for the source of the fragrance.

"Mom, sit at ease, we will help you find it." Zhong Haodong said.

At this time, Zhong Xue suddenly pointed to the front and shouted excitedly: "It's Yanran Restaurant, the fragrance is coming from Yanran Restaurant!"

Zhong Haodong looked at her in disbelief: "There are so many shops on this street, how can you be sure it's Yanran Restaurant?"

"Oh, Dad, your daughter and I have a good nose." Zhong Xue replied proudly.

Zhong Haodong glanced at his daughter indifferently, right?

The car stopped in front of Yanran's restaurant, and as soon as the door opened, the old lady couldn't wait to get up and get out of the car.

"Oh, Mom, slow down." Zhong Haodong said quickly.

"Grandma, please slow down." Zhong Xue hurriedly helped her up.

Zhong Jie also stood up immediately, stepped out of the car, and was ready to catch grandma at any time.

The old lady got out of the car nervously, and walked quickly into Yanran's restaurant.

At this time, Yan Ran was making Shaoxing chicken porridge, and the air in the shop was filled with the strong aroma of chicken soup.

Even though Zhong Haodong's sense of taste was dull, he understood why his mother was so nervous when he saw the delicious food on the stove.

"Young man, is this little Shaoxing chicken porridge?" the old lady asked.

"Yes, mother-in-law." Yan Ran replied with a smile.

Zhong Xue looked at Yan Ran's smile, and her heart was instantly bubbling with beauty, so handsome! ! !

"Can I have a bowl?" the old lady asked.

"Of course, but we need to wait another 15 minutes, is that okay?" Yan Ran said softly.

"Okay, I'll wait, I'll wait." The old woman nodded repeatedly.

"I can do it too." Zhong Xue replied with a smile and raised her hand.

Zhong Haodong glanced at his daughter in a daze.

Zhong Jie glanced at his sister with a look of disgust, nympho!

Fifteen minutes passed quickly, and Yan Ran brought a bowl of Shaoxing chicken porridge to the old lady.

"Mother-in-law, please use it slowly, just out of the oven, be careful not to burn it." Yan Ran warned carefully.

"Mom, let me cool you down!" Zhong Haodong said softly.

After speaking, I reached out to pick up the chicken porridge.

The old lady waved her hand, indicating that she would come by herself.

The old lady's hands trembled slightly, she picked up a spoon and took a spoonful, blew it around her mouth to cool it down, and then slowly put it into her mouth.

After chewing a few times, the old lady's eyes were red, and two lines of hot tears dripped down instantly.

Yan Ran was dumbfounded on the spot, why did he cry after drinking porridge?
