Qin Huai wasn’t exaggerating at all, he had absolute confidence in making the Double Crab Bun.
Because he knew he had completely mastered this snack, whether it was the wonderful fusion of pastry and at cooking, the challenging seasoning, or the soul-like thickening in the filling-making process, Qin Huai had it all down.
Now the problem was purely with the dishes—Qin Huai had many skills that didn’t asure up, like his level in at cooking, thickening, or handling and seasoning sea cucumber.
At this mont, Qin Huai could be said to have a mastery of the heart, only lacking in technical training. In this regard, Qin Huai was very much like Xu Nuo as described by Shi Dadan, Xu Nuo had A-level cooking skills and S-Class awareness, whereas Qin Huai’s skill in the Double Crab Bun was about B Level, with A Level awareness.
With such awareness and partners in the Double Crab Bun research team to make up for his technical shortcomings, Qin Huai was very confident in making the Double Crab Bun.
Qin Huai directly started sautéing and mixing the filling, the most important step, determining the soul of the Double Crab Bun.
The sent-away Huang An Yao returned, holding a bag of bananas, looking accusatively at Gong Liang, a face full of "Uncle Gong, how could you deceive when I trust you so much."
A grieving Huang An Yao returned to his post, determined not to let Gong Liang take a step into the kitchen.
Huang Shengli snatched a banana from his son’s hand, stood beside Qin Huai eating and watching, observing Qin Huai’s movents closely.
Although Qin Huai had not learned the Double Crab Bun for long, his movents were already quite skilled.
Stir-fry.
Advanced-level fire control was already sufficient for standard pastry making. After all, many skilled chefs in small stir-fry shops might only have this advanced level of fire control.
But there is still a difference between advanced and advanced, as advanced skill has a full 100,000 skill points. Zang Liang’s fire control was undoubtedly much better than Qin Huai’s, but Qin Huai felt that even Zang Liang’s fire control might not be at the Master Level.
Qin Huai used his standard, exaggerated, seemingly absurd Qin-style stir-fry.
Not only Huang Shengli, almost the entire Qin Family Kitchen staff felt it was their right to openly watch Qin Huai, everyone not working was staring at Qin Huai.
Because Dong Shi, being less senior and too talkative, was squeezed to the back, everyone found him noisy.
Dong Shi muttered quietly, "Is it my imagination? Why do I feel like Qin Huai’s fire control has improved a lot, although he still looks like he’s about to toss the dish out of the wok any mont, but sohow the movents seem quite thodical."
"Looks like a unique skill."
"Is this what they call the legendary ’having its own great scholar to debate the classics’?"
No one paid attention to Dong Shi, everyone was watching the movents and timing of Qin Huai’s spatula wielding, the more outrageous his moves, the better his timing was.
Knowing when to stir-fry, when to press down, when to move the wok, when to adjust the fire control, Qin Huai was like an experienced master who had been working in the kitchen for more than ten years, knowing the dishes in the wok like the back of his hand.
Apart from the absurd movents, it was easy to see in so places that his awareness had surpassed his hands, leaving almost no flaws.
Almost everyone thought of the sa idiom.
Transformation.
Even the usually silent, least willing to engage in gossip, who often starts and ends relationships quietly, Wang Jun couldn’t help but turn around and ask Dong Shi:
"Little Ninth, didn’t you say last ti Qin Huai seed to have a ntor?"
"Who exactly is that ntor anyway?"
To this, Dong Shi could only say blankly, "I don’t know at all."
"I only heard that Qin Huai seed to take on a ntor, I don’t know how he could be so ridiculous before ntoring, and even more ridiculous after."
"Is this reasonable?"
If Qin Huai could hear Dong Shi’s lant, he would certainly reply: Reasonable, my brother, very reasonable.
Then take out his phone, show Dong Shi the secret recipe docunt, and tell him the unreasonable parts are there.
Qin Huai thought his performance was okay today, neither exceptionally good nor any mistakes. Just like making buns every morning at the Qin Family Breakfast Shop, this is my daily work, you must complete it every day, as long as you do it, custors will be satisfied.
Qin Huai succeeded, only left for the custors to be satisfied.
After folding the pleats of the last bun, Qin Huai rotated his wrist and was about to look for the stear, but with a turn of his head, he saw several helpers from Huang’s Kitchen, who had previously assisted him, already started working consciously.
Only the last step of steaming remained, Master Qin also felt no need to do it personally, only reminded: "First steam with high heat for 8 minutes, then switch to low heat, be sure to set the ti."
Huang Shengli stood beside Qin Huai, watching him make the Double Crab Bun from start to finish without speaking, only waiting for Qin Huai to guard the buns beside the steaming pot before taking out his phone to ssage Zheng Da.
Huang Shengli: Have you set off?
Huang Shengli: If not, no rush, whether you co this morning or afternoon is the sa. I watched Xiao Qin’s Double Crab Bun, it’s pretty good, doesn’t need any of your guidance or help, he really made the Double Crab Bun.
Zheng Da replied almost instantly: ??? I’m at the door!
The next second, Zheng Da almost burst in, straight into the kitchen, leaving Huang An Yao stunned, and taking advantage of the chaos, Gong Liang squeezed two steps forward trying to sneak in to get close to Zang Liang, only to be blocked again by the vigilant Huang An Yao.
Gong Liang: Why is An Yao so stubborn?
Zheng Da paid no attention to the situation at the kitchen door, he rushed into the kitchen, shouting in amazent:
"Did the Double Crab Bun really make it?"
Twenty minutes later—
"The Double Crab Bun really made it."
The sa scene, the sa people, the sa words, just different tones.
Zheng Da chewing on the Double Crab Bun felt a sadness surround him again, although he had guessed yesterday that it might turn out like this today, he still harbored a slight hope.
What if Qin Huai and the others hadn’t quite nailed it and needed Old Master Zheng to make a hero’s entrance?
This would be his Master Zheng’s opportunity to redeem his reputation, brilliantly turn the tide, and win everyone’s praise.
Unfortunately, there simply wasn’t this opportunity.
Qin Huai made a whole six trays of buns, enough for each mber of Huang’s Kitchen to have two. To make up for not getting up in the morning, which left everyone regretful for missing the Chicken Soup Noodles, Qin Huai directly divided these six trays of buns among them, they didn’t need to be sold, they would make more for sale later.
The Double Crab Bun research team worked very efficiently together, Qin Huai’s efficiency in making the Double Crab Bun was much higher than when making the Four Happiness glutinous rice.
Gong Liang and Huang An Yao, facing each other at the door, ate the Double Crab Bun so as to prevent Gong Liang from sneaking in, Huang An Yao even watched him while eating buns.
Gong Liang realized that although this unlucky kid was easily deceived, it’s just because he’d been tricked so many tis over the years that he has a severe response to being tricked.
Alas, he wouldn’t have fooled the unlucky kid if he’d known, Gong Liang chewing on the bun, a tinge of guilt rose in his heart.
Qin Huai also chewing buns, seeing the two still stalemated at the door, felt a bit strange and walked over to ask directly: "What’s going on with you two? Huang An Yao, how co you’re still holding a bag of bananas?"
"Hey, these bananas look good, I’ll have one first." Qin Huai had only eaten a bowl of wontons in the morning, he wasn’t full at all, and now having only taken two bites of the bun, seeing the bananas he wanted to have another banana.
Saying that, Qin Huai directly reached over, took the bag, broke a banana, and started eating.
Huang An Yao was dumbfounded, turning to Gong Liang.
"So Uncle Gong, you didn’t lie to , it really was for Qin Huai to eat bananas."
Qin Huai: ?
Gong Liang smiled slightly, giving a look as if saying it wasn’t much, Uncle Gong wouldn’t lie to you: "An Yao, you just have a misunderstanding of Uncle Gong, even though Uncle Gong works in sales and likes to say nice words, Uncle Gong never lies."
Qin Huai silently ate the banana, appreciating Gong Liang’s performance.
The next second, a ga notification sound rang in Qin Huai’s mind.
"Ding, a new side quest discovered, please check in the ga panel."
Hey, a new side quest has triggered again.
By the current look of things, it’s most likely Gong Liang’s side quest. I didn’t expect this trip to Gusu to be so rewarding, first triggering Shi Dadan’s side quest, now it’s Gong Liang’s.
Looks like indeed can’t return to Shan City in 10 days.
Wonder if it can be done in 30 days.
