Chapter 34: ask for advice

To Stark, a mere million-dollar sale is just a trivial matter.

But for Shi Xiaolei's family, buying a new house is a very important event.

For such an important matter, Stark deliberately took the time to help, and also played an extremely important role in promoting and guiding the process. If it is reasonable, you should greet him well.

In this way, in order to thank Stark, Shi Xiaolei made a special call to the uncle in the neighborhood he met before, and asked him to take action to help clean up a good table. The uncle had been staying in the country all the time. Top chefs who have participated in the preparation of state banquets. Because of his old age, his only son was working in a big Wall Street company again, and he was reluctant to let his son quit such a well-paid job, so the uncle came to the United States on his own initiative and settled in Chinatown, which is very close to Wall Street.

In previous years, I have saved a lot of money, and my son doesn't need to subsidize it. After the uncle came to Chinatown, he never thought of finding a place to work... Just like the old men in the village who had nothing to do after eating, the uncle's daily life is full of leisure, walking birds, playing dogs, playing chess and playing cards, except occasionally helping to mediate the neighborhood. Disputes, basically every day is spent in fun.

However, after working as a cook for so many years, it has already formed a habit, and it does not mean that you can let go.

Sometimes, the uncle will invite three or five friends to cook a few dishes, and in the name of entertaining guests, let himself have a good time and practice his skills.

As for why Shi Xiaolei knew this uncle, it's a long story.

At that time, Shi Xiaolei arrived for the first time, and he was not familiar enough with his fellow villagers.

Not only has no connections, but also no money. Well, to be precise, it should be before he was introduced to fight black boxing. In short, in the first week or two, Shi Xiaolei was still a hapless **** with no money and no connections.

Just relying on the identity of the fellow is obviously not enough to make the landlord give in and rent the store. So, in order to save money, Shi Xiaolei had to do odd jobs first, from washing dishes and dishes, to repairing water pipes and drains, to moving houses and installing home appliances, etc. He would not refuse any job that could bring money.

Not to mention how much money he has earned, the key is his unrelenting and enthusiastic attitude... In just a week, Shi Xiaolei has built up a good reputation in the hearts of fellow villagers and initially established a good impression.

It is precisely because of this good impression that when they went to the uncle's house to help repair the ceiling one day, the two got on the line - worried that Shi Xiaolei would fall off the ladder, the uncle had been standing below and supporting the ladder. I was a little bored when I was free, and the uncle casually started with him. As soon as I heard that Shi Xiaolei was saving money, he wanted to open a small restaurant. The uncle who has been a cook for decades suddenly became interested...

With 'Chinese food' as a bond, one old and one young forged friendship. After Shi Xiaolei made some money from black boxing and opened that small shop, the uncle would occasionally come to sit in the shop. If he was in a good mood, he would even go to the back kitchen to give Shi Xiaolei some pointers. The sentence shows one hand.

Although the menu in Shi Xiaolei's shop is very simple, just relying on fried rice and fried noodles will not allow the uncle to exert his strength. The power of guidance cannot be ignored.

It doesn't mean that I used to work in a restaurant before crossing the road, and I also learned the craft from the cooks on the construction site, so I can open a restaurant smoothly. Some things seem simple, but when you do it, you will know how difficult it is.

Pointing out the flaws in craftsmanship is the second thing. If it wasn't for the help of the uncle in advance, he pointed out some blind spots that are often overlooked in business operations, and taught various tips... Cheap and large quantity is the biggest advantage of attracting customers, laying a solid foundation for revenue. However, the various practical skills taught by the uncle are the optimization of the entire structure. To tell the truth, the 'house' was not built crookedly or collapsed, and the uncle really contributed.

Talking a little too far.

When I called Uncle this time, besides wanting to ask him to cook an authentic Chinese meal to thank Stark, Shi Xiaolei also had another idea.

With the selection of a new home, it is time to start thinking about moving and redecorating the storefront.

It's easy to talk about moving. It's nothing more than spending some time shopping for new furniture and putting in some effort to move things that you don't want to throw away.

The key is the storefront.

The business area has been expanded and the decoration has also been upgraded. We can't just sell some fried rice and noodles as before, right?

It is essential to serve new dishes. What's more, the reason why Shi Xiaolei thought of upgrading the store was because of the addition of the 'Ark' plug-in, which allowed him to obtain various green and natural ingredients in large quantities without any cost. If it is still the same, those ingredients will not be useful at all, and naturally there is no "effective utilization".

No, the day after I invited Stark to dinner, Shi Xiaolei came to He Yingshui's house again: "Uncle He, are you at home? I'm Xiaolei."

"Wait a minute." The voice went from far to near, and after a few seconds, Uncle He opened the door from the house and welcomed Shi Xiaolei into the entrance: "Didn't you come here yesterday, why are you here again today? Yo? , you kid, just come, what else do you bring?"

"Don't you want to thank me?" Handing over the two bottles of good wine, Shi Xiaolei took the slippers handed over by Uncle He and put them on: "Yesterday, it was your fault~www.NovelMTL.com~ If it's just me, I can't make him so satisfied with what he eats."

"As soon as you said this, I remembered it. My family was there yesterday, so it's hard to speak." Pointing to the mahogany sofa, he motioned Shi Xiaolei to sit casually. Lao He picked up the cigarette case on the coffee table and ordered it for himself. After a cigarette: "You can do it, boy, how did you meet Tony Stark? You are such a big person, you are the only one who runs a small restaurant, and you can't fight it."

"This, this... Uncle He, I don't want to lie to you, I really can't say it."

"..." Knowing that Shi Xiaolei had been fighting for a few days to save money, now seeing him hesitantly, He Yingshui unconsciously thought crooked.

He took a sip of his cigarette and looked at Shi Xiaolei with squinted eyes. He Yingshui showed a bit of concern on his face: "Since I can't say it, I won't ask. It's a shameful thing, you know? You should have felt it after being here for so long. We Chinese have always been weak here. If something troublesome is involved, it's not easy to get out."

Lao Cheng's solemn warning made Shi Xiaolei feel warm.

"Uncle, don't worry." He nodded, indicating that he had listened to what he said, Shi Xiaolei rubbed his hands: "I will never get involved in those messy things in the future. In fact, I came to you today to ask for your guidance. Come on. I'm going to renovate the diner and upgrade it a little. You're a connoisseur, what should I pay attention to, and the pricing of the menu, anyway, will you teach me a lesson?"

"Hehe, that's right. Eat by craftsmanship and live a good life." After flicking the cigarette ashes, He Yingshui smiled gratified: "Okay, since you want to make progress, this old man of mine will give you an idea."
