Chapter 465 Qin Shaoyuan

He said with a proud look on his face: "I heard from the shopkeeper, who among you would use this seasoning from a foreign country?"

Shen Xia looked up at him and replied calmly: "I will."

After hearing this, the boy couldn't help but look at her again. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

He questioned and said, "Don't lie to me! This thing comes from a foreign country. We have never seen it in our Central Plains. How could you use it?" The boy stared at Shen Xia with disbelief.

Shen Xia was not to be outdone, and responded with the same pride: "Humph, you can get it, why can't I know how to use it? Let me tell you, I not only know how to use it, but also know which dishes it can be used in."

The young man raised his eyebrows and asked provocatively, "Just talking?"

Then, he looked at Shen Xia carefully from head to toe, muttering to himself that she didn't look like someone who could cook.

Seeing this, Shen Xia was not willing to be outdone and retorted, "Why? Do you think I don't look like someone who can cook? Aren't you the same?"

While the boy was looking at her, she also took the opportunity to look him up and down.

This guy is obviously a young man from a wealthy family. He probably opened this restaurant out of personal interest, but he is helpless with these seasonings.

The boy was silent for a moment, then spoke again: "Then why should I believe that you can really use these seasonings?"

He has loved studying food since he was a child, but his parents could not understand him at all. They thought he was not doing his job properly and would not achieve great things.

His brothers and sisters at home also look down on him.

He is not the only child here, and he doesn't have to follow in his father's footsteps. Why can't he do something he likes?

Shen Xia chuckled and said, "Why should I ask you to believe me?"

The young man choked.

Then he looked at Shen Xia and said, "You can ask for anything you want, and I will definitely satisfy you if I can."

Shen Xia raised the corner of her mouth slightly: "If I teach you how to use these seasonings, you sell this restaurant to me."

The boy heard this and said, "No, if I sell it to you, where can I use my cooking skills?"

"Just use the money from the sale to buy another one!"

"Then why don't you buy another one and I'll pay for the tuition."

Shen Xia shook her head: "I just like you, as for whether you are willing or not, it depends on you."

The young man was shocked by Shen Xia's strong aura.

How could this woman be so overbearing?

Don't you see he is young?

I don’t know how to give in.

It's not like she's teaching in vain, is it?

Isn't it enough to just pay the tuition?

Finally, seeing that the other party was unwilling to give in, he asked, "What are you buying it for?"

Shen Xia slowly said, "A beauty salon is a club for women's health care?"

"What kind of place is this? Is there anything to eat?"

Shen Xia thought about it and decided to cook something.

He nodded and said, "How about I sell the restaurant to you and I still cook here?"

Shen Xia's mouth twitched.

Young man, what is your hobby?

I just like working for others.

The boy looked at Shen Xia with a strange expression: "I just want to do something, I don't like studying."

Shen Xia finally nodded: "Okay!"

Just like supporting someone in the kitchen.

He can do it or not.

Anyway, he can’t be the only one in the kitchen.

The boy nodded: "When will you show us your skills?"

Shen Xia looked at him and said, "It's better to do it today than to wait for a day."

Then he looked at Gu Ziyan and Xia Shuran: "You two wait here for me, I'll go make you some edible dishes."

Shen Xia followed the boy down.

He asked, "What's your name?"

The young man said: "My name is Qin Shaoyuan, what's yours?"

Shen Xia smiled and said, "My name is Shen Xia, just call me by my name."

When Qin Shaoyuan heard this, he was not familiar with the name and did not recognize it.

The two went downstairs to the kitchen.

Everything is complete and the kitchen is clean.

I just don’t know why he prepares so many things every day and no one comes to eat.

I guess there’s a lot of waste every day!

The loss in one month is not small?

Shen Xia asked: "How much money do you lose in a month?"

The boy was unhappy when he heard what Shen Xia said: "Why do you ask like that! Aren't you going to ask me how much I make a month?"

Shen Xia said nothing and just looked at him.

In the end, Qin Shaoyuan felt uncomfortable being stared at by him.

He muttered, "A few hundred taels, just for food and labor."

The people in the kitchen saw Qin Shaoyuan coming to the kitchen and hurried forward and asked, "Master, is there anything else?"

Young Master Qin glanced at Shen Xia and said, "I have found a master who knows how to make foreign spices. I will learn from him. You all can go and do your own things."

Shen Xia looked at something nearby.

There are beef and lamb chops on the side.

Potatoes are also a common vegetable.

Shen Xia took a look at the seasonings next to it. There were pepper, cumin, chili peppers, and other spices.

It should be a stew, but it contains poppy.

During this era, foreign countries were the first to use poppy as a spice.

Shen Xia took a look at the spices and quickly knew what to do.

Get out the ingredients you want to make.

To make a soup, we can only make chicken soup. We could have made pork tripe chicken soup, but eating pork tripe was not popular at that time, so there was none in the kitchen.

This can be used with pepper.

Then I made a cumin lamb chop, cumin beef cubes, and cumin potatoes.

Chili peppers can be used to make spicy fish.

After thinking it over, Shen Xia looked at Qin Shaoyuan and asked, "Do you have shoulder straps?"

Qin Shaoyuan looked at Shen Xia's long sleeves, and then said to the person next to him: "Hurry up and bring a shoulder strap over."

The servant said, "Okay, Master."

Shen Xia immediately fastened her shoulder straps and began to arrange things. She would definitely start with making soup, and then said to Qin Shaoyuan next to her, "Help me."

Qin Shaoyuan nodded: "Okay!"

Everyone around was surprised. Who is this woman and how dare she order our young master around?

"Master, let me do it!" said the servant.

Qin Shaoyuan glanced at him and said, "You want to steal my skills."

The servant quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no - no."

Get out of the way quickly.

Shen Xia told Qin Shaoyuan what she wanted and how she wanted the ingredients cut.

Qin Shaoyuan was very obedient and cut and prepared everything according to Shen Xia's wishes.

Shen Xia carefully observed the ingredients prepared by Qin Shaoyuan, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This kid is really good!

She originally thought that Qin Shaoyuan was just talking casually, but now it seems that he really has a deep interest and love for cooking.

It turns out that Qin Shaoyuan has been cooking for many years, and he is best at making dim sum.

As time went by, he gradually fell in love with the kitchen and felt that it was an immense happiness to be able to bring delicious food to everyone.

Speaking of Qin Shaoyuan's passion for cooking, it can be traced back to his childhood.

At that time, he saw that his mother loved dim sum very much, so he made up his mind to learn how to make it in order to please his mother.

Sure enough, when he made the exquisite snacks by himself, his mother praised them highly after tasting them.

His mother also regretted it to death. If she had known that praising her son for his delicious cooking would make him interested in cooking, she would definitely not choose to be a mother who spoils his fun.

As a result, my son has become what he is today.
