Looking at the large basket of vegetables on the table, Xu Damao's eyes twitched violently.
Good heavens, this was going to exhaust him to death.
Xu Damao asked indignantly,"Lu Fan, you want me to do so many things alone?" Then what are you doing?"
Lu Fan took out a handful of melon seeds from his pocket and sat on the chair with his legs crossed."I'm supervising you!"
Xu Damao almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Bastard!
Xu Damao could tell that Lu Fan was clearly trying to mess with him. However, when he thought about how Director Zhao was backing Lu Fan up, no matter how unhappy Xu Damao was, he did not dare to disobey.
The task that Director Zhao gave him was to do odd jobs. If he didn't even wash the vegetables properly, wouldn't it be difficult for the chef to work?
"F * ck, I'll wash it! I'd like to see how you, a salesperson, cook. When the time comes, if I can't cook the dishes, the one who will be embarrassed will be you!”
Xu Damao glared at Lu Fan and said fiercely.
Lu Fan took a sip of tea indifferently and said lightly,"Whether you're embarrassed or not has nothing to do with you. Hurry up and wash your vegetables. I'm telling you, Director Zhao will come over later to rush you. If he finds out that you haven't done it well and is unhappy, he will definitely deduct your bonus for the month!”
Xu Damao was so scared that his calves and stomach trembled when he heard that the money would be deducted.
In that era, the salary group was divided into two parts. One part was the basic salary, and the other part was the benefit salary, which was also commonly known as the bonus.
He had already been extorted 40 yuan by Lu Fan. If his bonus for the month was deducted, he would really be in trouble.
Xu Damao did not waste any more time. He picked up the basket and ran to the pool, panting. He turned on the water dragon and began to work.
At this moment, Liu Lan and Ma Hua were also recruited by Director Zhao to help. Otherwise, Xu Damao alone would not have been able to make it in time.
Seeing that Xu Damao had gone to work obediently, Lu Fan did not stay idle either. He put down the teacup, took out the pork from the bowl, and nimbly began to change the knife.
Fifteen minutes later, Xu Damao came in with a large basin.
The basin was filled with all kinds of vegetables that he had washed and picked.
Lu Fan picked a few green leafy vegetables that were easier to cut and handed them to Xu Damao, Liu Lan, and the others. He was responsible for cutting potatoes, carrots, and other things that required more cutting skills.
Dong dong dong…
Lu Fan's kitchen knife and chopping board kept moving up and down. Soon, strips of potato shreds of uniform thickness appeared on the chopping board.
When Lu Fan was cutting the vegetables, Xu Damao's eyes kept staring at him. He was so shocked that he almost cut off his fingers.
"Is this guy's cutting skills that awesome?”
Although Xu Damao didn't know how to cook, he had eaten a lot when he went to the countryside to play movies. Just based on his cutting skills, it was enough to prove that Lu Fan had practiced a little.
Xu Damao snorted coldly in his heart, What's the use of just cutting vegetables? You have to know how to cook! Who knew if it was just a show, good-looking but useless?”
Soon, all the side dishes were finished.
Xu Damao followed Lu Fan's request and distributed all the dishes into each bowl.
"Hey, my job is done. It's your turn now!”Xu Damao looked at Lu Fan with disdain.""Chef Lu, didn't you say that you know how to cook? Show me your skills.”
Lu Fan ignored Xu Damao's mockery.
After heating up the pot and cooling the oil, he poured a small handful of rock sugar into the pot and began to stir-fry the sugar color. Then, he poured in the pork belly, poured in the dark soy sauce, and added the ginger slices.
After everyone boiled it, they moved it into a casserole and simmered it slowly. In less than two minutes, the fragrance immediately filled the entire kitchen.
Just by smelling it, Xu Damao drooled all over the floor. He asked in surprise,"Lu Fan, you, you really know how to cook?”
Lu Fan glanced at him angrily."What do you think? Don't just stand there. Hurry up and fan the stove. The fire isn't strong enough!”
"Why should I go?"
Xu Damao asked unhappily.
Lu Fan turned to look at him and said,"Why don't I go and fan the wind while you cook?"”
Xu Damao was stunned when he saw Lu Fan pass him the big spoon.
Let him cook? How could he?
This was made for the big leader to eat. If he were to stir-fry it and the leaders were disgusted, the factory manager would directly fire him.
"No, no, no, you do it. You're the chef! I'll go behind the stove. That's my seat!”
Xu Damao quickly ran to the back of the stove, picked up the fan, and began to fan himself.
Looking at Xu Damao's sullen expression, Lu Fan sneered," Little brat, you're still too inexperienced to fight with me!
Not long after, Director Zhao ran into the kitchen and asked anxiously," Lu Fan, how's the preparation going? Is it ready…"
Director Zhao was stunned halfway through his sentence.
There were six cold dishes, four stir-fried dishes, and two stewed dishes on the table. All that was left was soup.
The hot dishes were all kept warm in bowls, and each dish was beautifully arranged. The color, color, and fragrance were also extremely tempting.
Especially the Dongpo Pork, which was red in color. Just looking at it would make one's fingers move.
Seeing that they were running out of time, he quickly asked Ma Hua and Liu Lan to serve the dishes to the leader one by one.
"Awesome!" Director Zhao couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.""In such a short period of time, you actually made so many dishes. You're indeed better than your brother, He Yuzhu!”
"Director, just because the dishes are cooked fast doesn't mean that they are delicious! What if the higher-ups think it tastes bad!" Xu Damao stuck his head out from behind the stove and said mockingly.
Hearing this, Director Zhao immediately frowned.
That's right. Just because the food was fast and looked good, it didn't mean that it would be delicious. It was really good to have the approval of the leaders.
He looked at Lu Fan and rubbed his hands in embarrassment.""Lu Fan, you're cooking so fast. Will the taste..."
Lu Fan said indifferently,"Can you listen to Xu Damao?" Since you want me to cook, just trust me. Don't ask about anything else!”
At this moment, a strange man walked into the kitchen and asked coldly.
"The leader asked who cooked the dishes today.”
Hearing this, Director Zhao's heart immediately skipped a beat. It was over! The thing he was most worried about had happened.
Xu Damao was secretly delighted." I knew that Lu Fan is just a show-off. He's just a salesperson in a small store. How can he cook? He's just pretending!" I'll see how you die this time!
Ma Hua and Liu Lan's expressions were also very ugly. If this meal was ruined, they would all be in trouble.
Lu Fan raised his hand." I cooked the food. What's wrong?"”
"Hurry up, the leader wants you to go over!”
The man pulled Lu Fan and ran into the private room. Director Zhao quickly followed.
After entering the private room, all the leaders at the table turned their gazes to Lu Fan. The person sitting in the main seat was a middle-aged man with glasses. He was Deputy Director Qi of the Light Industry Bureau.
Deputy Chief Qi pointed at the dishes on the table and asked,"Little comrade, did you cook all these dishes?”
"Yes!" Lu Fan nodded.
Deputy Chief Qi immediately gave him a thumbs up and said with a smile,"Good! Your dishes look, smell, and taste good. They're even better than the ones I've eaten in the big restaurants outside. You're really amazing!”
