royal family

This old store in Tianfu Building on Zhongshan Street is the one with the longest heritage among all the Shao family's businesses.Time flies, history changes, this area has always been the most prosperous and dense downtown area in City A.Tianfu Building is an ultra-luxury commercial building that has only been built in recent years. There is no other shopping mall in City A or even in Province A that gathers luxury brands from all over the world like Tianfu Building. The shopping malls and streets in the surrounding area are all It is a gold-selling cave for the rich, and it took a lot of contacts for the Shao family to buy the two most valuable buildings in Zenith in such a place.The old Tianfu store can be said to be an old sign of Shao's restaurant.

Father Shao has spent a lot of thought on running these old signboards, and every selection of the management team has to be personally reviewed. Many of the employees here have been working for a long time, and they have a sense of identity and belonging to the old store and Father Shao.This is also one of the reasons why Shao Yubo took away most of the property and only left these old shops. These old faces cannot be easily replaced, but it is far more difficult to digest these contacts than to abandon them.

The staff in the restaurant were a little puzzled when they received the notice that Shao's father was coming at noon. The Shao family has changed too much recently. Shao's father is busy with various jobs, and the chances of being able to come to the restaurant to sit in charge have become less and less.The store has also been in a bit of a downturn recently, especially after Zhao Weibo took away the signature chef A Shu from the store without warning.The people in the store were completely unprepared for his move. As soon as Ah Shu left, the acting chef who took over was in a hurry.The returning customers all noticed that the signature main meal tasted wrong, and several tables had already come to complain, and the lunch meal was managed like a war.

The smoking machine in the back kitchen was rumbling, and thick mist was still coming out from the gap in the steamer. The acting chef Tian Fangli led a group of his staff to stand neatly. The foreman who had been guarding the door to watch the movement suddenly moved :"I'm coming!"

The moment she ran back to the team, the staff door of the back kitchen was firmly pushed open.

With a smile on his face, Shao's father entered the room and saw Tian Fangli approaching him, and asked him gently, "How have you been these two days?"

Tian Fangli smiled wryly: "It's all okay, but Ah Shu has just left, so there must be some confusion in the early stage."

"Thank you for your hard work." Father Shao raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, then opened the door with his backhand, and said to the outside: "Aqin, Yanyan, you two come in."

Looking back at Ueda Fangli's puzzled gaze, he explained with a smile: "Take my child and wife to see."

Tian Fangli was a little worried, what time was it, he thought Father Shao was here to solve the problem, but he took his wife and children and used it as a playground.What is there to see in the back kitchen?

In the next second, he saw a young boy about 1.7 meters walking in.

This person's skin is very fair, with fresh and clean black hair, and he is wearing casual clothes that are not ordinary in tailoring and workmanship, as if he looks pampered.Tian Fangli turned his head to look at him. This man's head was slightly drooping, and his eyes were locked on the ground when he was walking, but he didn't give people the feeling of inferiority and introversion. On the contrary, he made people feel that he was calm and focused.His nose bridge is very high, and a round nose bead protrudes from the tip of his nose when viewed from the side. His lips are thin and pouty, and the color is pink.

Very cute appearance, coupled with snow-white skin, people can't help but feel good at first sight.Tian Fangli's gaze softened a lot, and he wanted to say hello to the other person first, but he didn't know that just after he opened his mouth, the person looked over as if he had eyes on the side.

He has a pair of peach blossom eyes, the double eyelids are big and deep, and the pupils are shallower than ordinary people, so his eyes appear a little blurred.However, this seemingly inadvertent glance made Tian Fangli froze all of a sudden, and he couldn't explain why, but there was something in the other's eyes that made him instinctively afraid.

He didn't have time to pay attention to Shao's mother who came in behind, his eyes seemed to be out of control, no matter how much Tian Fangli tried to control, he still kept glued to Shao Yan.

Shao Yan noticed that Tian Fangli's gaze had not disappeared, and frowned slightly. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly smelled an unpleasant smell at the end of his nose.

The smell came from a deep stainless steel pot deep in the kitchen. Shao Yan wrinkled his nose and sniffed it vigorously. He ignored everyone present and went straight to the pot and lifted the lid.

"Hey! Don't do that..." Tian Fangli was stunned for a moment, and immediately wanted to stop it, but Shao Yan found a big spoon before that.Stirring the soup in the pot with a spoon, he scooped up a small spoon to distinguish carefully: "Who made this pot of soup?"

Tian Fangli was not happy that things in the kitchen were being tampered with casually, and walked over to stop Shao Yan's nonsense, but Shao Yan suddenly turned his eyes on his face: "Did you make this soup?"

Meeting the gaze of the other party, Tian Fangli's nervousness that had subsided a little bit immediately became clear again, and his menacing pace immediately slowed down: "This... this is for a while to stew Buddha jumping over the wall..."

"Did you do it?" Shao Yan interrupted him.

Tian Fangli suddenly felt anxious when he went back to elementary school and faced the head teacher: "...it's me."

"Did you put perilla in it?"

Tian Fangli was stunned: "How do you know?"

Shao Yan ignored him: "Why do you put perilla in it?"

"I..." Tian Fangli stuttered when asked, "A-Shu made this dish before, and I, I haven't made it a few times. At noon, a customer complained that scallops, ham and chicken soup were skewered together The taste is too greasy, I...I just want to put some basil..."

"Stupid." Shao Yan didn't wait for him to finish, raised his hand and threw the spoon and soup into the sink, after flushing the handle, he opened the door of the freezer beside him, picked a handful of fresh mint and threw it into the pot .Tian Fangli couldn't stop him, and instantly widened his eyes, but Shao Yan over there wrinkled his nose and sniffed the smell of the pot, rummaged through the box to find a few balls of tangerine peel, broke them into pieces, and threw them into the pot.

"..." Tian Fangli maintained the posture of reaching out to stop Shao Yan, staring at Guo Guo almost desperately, "...What are you going to do..."

"Scallops and ham are mixed flavors, you use perilla to press them. After the perilla suppresses the umami, what do you cook in a pot?"

"I..." Tian Fangli was a little at a loss for a while, "Earlier, Ashu made this dish secretly by himself..."

"Take out all the ingredients you will use later." Shao Yan picked up a small musket that was described as delicate on the kitchen counter. After a while, seeing that Tian Fangli hadn't moved, he slapped the musket back on the counter, "What are you doing in a daze?" ? I’ll do it once, and I’ll learn to see if you’re up to your own abilities.”

"Hurry up!" Shao's father over there became anxious when he saw that Tian Fangli hadn't moved. He had seen Shao Yan's posture of making things at home a few times in the past few days. If he didn't get a response when he gave orders, he must have seen someone. who to scold.Father Shao went back to steal the almond milk he had stewed in the kitchen. He lifted the lid of the pot too early and the heat of the stewed milk was not enough. Shao Yan stared at him after he found out, which is still fresh in his memory.

Only then did Tian Fangli come to his senses, and short of breath, he led someone to get the materials. Shao's father's performance made him understand quickly, and he didn't dare to neglect him at all.He is also a little strange, after working in the old shop for so many years, he can be regarded as a veteran chef, even when Ah Shu and the others were there before, they still wanted to sell him some thin noodles.He had never been afraid of anyone in this kitchen, but it was the first time he met Shao Yan today, and he felt the nervousness that he didn't dare to show when he was studying with his master more than ten years ago.Shao Yan's attitude of being the boss and my second child was so natural that Tian Fangli didn't dare to really get angry from the beginning to the end to stop his familiar groping.

"Master, Mr. Shao's son is so cute!" Tian Fangli's little apprentice, a round-faced girl who was a bit careless, couldn't help being a nympho while carrying things with the master.Her brothers and sisters all agreed and agreed, Shao Yan's current appearance could hardly make a man feel competitive.This group of people stood far away just now, all they knew was that Shao Yan and Tian Fangli went to the main pot to talk, but they didn't realize that their master's aura was a little lower in front of the other party, so naturally they didn't have anything in Shao Yan's heart at this time awe.

"Shut up, be more honest when you come to others later!" Tian Fangli vaguely felt that a once-in-a-lifetime turning point had arrived, and he was annoyed by the inattentive state of the apprentices, so he directly reprimanded them loudly.

The little apprentice stuck out her tongue. The teacher-teacher relationship in the chef world is traditional. It is normal for apprentices to be scolded and reprimanded, and she is used to it.

Buddha Tiaoqiang is the main dish that attracts customers in this old shop. People with financial means almost have to try it once every time they come. Therefore, the materials used in the restaurant are also the highest quality, the freshest abalone and sea cucumber, and the most exquisite ham. And fish lip, bamboo fungus, fresh bamboo shoots, mushrooms and shark's fin are all carefully selected the best.

Instructing his disciples to take out some old hens that had just been slaughtered from the cold storage, Tian Fangli ran out tremblingly holding the existing raw materials.

Outside the kitchen, Father Shao saw Tian Fangli and the others walking away, so he came forward to persuade him: "Your Uncle Tian has been with Dad for many years, and he has worked hard for me. Dad knows you have a quick temper, but don't be too rude to him." Yes. Although he's a little pedantic, he has a good nature."

Shao Yan glanced at Shao's father, thinking to himself that for a senior person like Tian Fangli, if he hadn't stabilized him from the beginning, would he be so obedient?

He didn't say yes or no, he looked at the leaving group of people for a while before he said, "This Tian...Tian..." He couldn't call him Uncle Tian.

Father Shao said helplessly, "His name is Tian Fangli."

"Tian Fangli." Shao Yan said, "the brain is still very flexible. Although he lacks a little technically, he should be a malleable talent if he is taught well. Let him follow me. If he has a good character, I will teach him some skills. Stuff that can last.”

Shao's father strangely didn't think there was anything wrong with his son's words. When Tian Fangli came out, he happily patted his old subordinate on the shoulder: "My son's cooking skills are nothing to say, but his temper is bad. I will talk about it today. He brought it here, and he said, don’t be angry, hurry up and learn something, so that I can entrust the old store to you.”

"..." Tian Fangli was silent for a moment, staring at Shao's father seriously, "Thank you so much."

"Haha!" Father Shao was very happy, "Thank you for being so polite."

"..." Tian Fangli didn't know for a moment whether he should throw his long-prepared fist at it, and Shao Yan over there had already started to pick and choose the raw materials.

"You, you," he pointed to two of Tian Fangli's apprentices, "take Xiaobao and sea cucumbers and wash them clean."

The round-faced little apprentice joyfully ran over to pick up the five-headed abalones that Shao Yan picked out, with two blushes on his face: "My name is Tao Xi."

Shao Yan looked up at her. She had a round face and a small nose, and she looked really cute, so she smiled: "My name is Shao Yan." He picked out two pieces of ham and threw it aside, "There are fat meat in the library. A little ham? The fire side can't be used."

Before Tao Xi could answer, Tian Fangli, who heard this over there, couldn't sit still immediately: "The one made by Ah Shu before is filled with fire cubes."

Shao Yan turned the fire aside: "Bring some fat. Also, this fresh bamboo shoot can't be used. You can find some dried bamboo shoots and pick the tender ones."

Tian Fangli was made dizzy by the other party's way of ignoring himself. He didn't want to follow Shao Yan's orders at all, but when he was swept away by Shao Yan's impatient gaze, he still went forward to put it away in a desperate manner. Huo Fang went back to the warehouse.

Shao's father said to his son in surprise: "Oh, why are you so powerful, you made him submissive?" He had put him in the old store so carefully. For so many years, he had never seen Tian Fangli listen to anyone so obediently!

Director Shao gave him a blank look, what's so strange about this, he hasn't met anyone who dared to confront him in many years.
