Abnormal Gourmet Chronicle-Chapter 1104 - 535: Video Tutorial

Not long after Qin Huai finished replying to Huang An Yao's message, Wang Jun proactively sent a message to Qin Huai to discuss the matter of coming to Yunzhong Restaurant for an exchange.

The person who had initially suggested this exchange was Huang Shengli, who felt that staying at Huang Ji was actually limiting Wang Jun's development. At Huang Ji, Wang Jun was just an ordinary cutting chef, the least talented apprentice of Huang Shengli, practically a background character with no standout features.

The Large Sect is good, but it's competitive. Going to a place where Wang Jun can stand on his own is more of a challenge and an opportunity to grow.

This time, it was Wang Jun who actively proposed coming to Yunzhong Restaurant for an exchange.

You could see that Wang Jun wanted to make some changes.

Qin Huai naturally welcomed Wang Jun's arrival. Wang Jun's culinary skills might not be much at Huang Ji, but at Yunzhong Restaurant, he would absolutely outshine two meat-cooking chefs combined. If Wang Jun were willing to spend a year or so exchanging at Yunzhong Market, Yunzhong Restaurant's meat dishes would receive an epic enhancement, and Qin Huai would no longer have to struggle over whether to have scrambled eggs with tomatoes or chili fried meat for lunch every day.

A kid makes choices; as the boss, he eats it all!

Qin Huai had a brief chat with Wang Jun on WeChat, expressed his welcome, and noted that housing issues could be easily resolved—Wang Jun could come anytime, stay over, and he went to sleep afterward.

Qin Huai had to get up early to make breakfast for Luoluo the next day.

Before 3 a.m. the next morning, Qin Huai was woken up by his alarm, achieving the earliest work start time, truly working at dawn and dusk.

For the first time, Qin Huai became the earliest worker at Yunzhong Restaurant, even earlier than An Youyou. When An Youyou arrived and found the boss already there, she was stunned, thinking her phone was malfunctioning and showing the wrong time, causing her to be late. After changing clothes and walking into the kitchen, she stood in rare surprise for over ten seconds before slowly walking over to Qin Huai to apologize.

"Master Qin, I didn't..."

"Youyou, good timing, quickly go chop the meat. Are you hungry? There's some steamed rice cake over there, you can eat a couple of pieces to fill up." Qin Huai was delighted to see An Youyou had arrived.

Qin Huai was no longer the breakfast chef at Qin Family Breakfast Shop who needed to personally handle everything. Now he was Master Qin, the boss, with employees and helpers under him, and had gotten used to letting others take care of many chores. It was rare to come this early today, doing everything himself felt a bit unfamiliar.

"Youyou, there are plenty and varied ingredients to handle today. Around 5 o'clock, we should receive a batch of fresh crabs; please work hard to extract the crab roe and meat. It's not difficult, just requires attention to detail."

"After handling the crabs, if there are other tasks left, divide them up with others. The rest of the day, stay by my side to watch me make snacks. I'm going to make a lot today, mostly simple ones, perfect for you to watch."

"Yes, Master Qin!" An Youyou quickly got to work, not even taking a bite of the rice cake.

Around six, Qin Luo wandered sleepily into the kitchen with her backpack on her shoulders, and seeing the kitchen filled with snacks Qin Huai had prepared for her, her sleepy eyes instantly popped open wide.

"Wow, brother, is it New Year's today? Will I also get some New Year's money later?"

Qin Huai realized for the first time how imaginative his sister was.

"Eat quickly, pick what you like while it's hot. You can pack the leftovers to take to school for lunch or share with your classmates," Qin Huai said with a smile. "Do well in this month's exams, don't let mom and dad worry too much."

"Lately, mom's been worried sick that you'll end up on a path of crime and land in jail, worried until she can't sleep at night."

As Qin Huai spoke, Qin Luo's mouth was already stuffed full of buns, her face full of confusion, mumbling, "Huh? If I don't do well in exams abroad, I'll be dragged to jail? Is it that dangerous overseas? Brother, can I not go abroad and just stay here?"

Qin Huai: … It seems his sister really might not have much academic talent.

"Just eat," he urged.

Obediently, Qin Luo sped up, quickly finishing a plate of buns, then a plate of steamed buns, moving on to eating rice noodle rolls and steamed dumplings, alternating bites between them. Qin Huai couldn't even imagine what these two things mixed in the mouth would taste like.

All he could see was that his unfortunate kid sister did have quite an appetite for food, which was expected at the age of seventeen, the prime of eating years.

Anyone seeing Qin Luo's current state of hearty eating would likely praise her youthful appetite and begin reminiscing, claiming they could eat just as much when they were young. Sigh, truly getting old, the spirit is willing, but the stomach is weak.

After devouring all the breakfast she could eat like a storm, Qin Luo packed up the leftovers, happily catching the bus to school.

After Qin Luo left, An Youyou curiously asked, "Master Qin, is it true that poor academic performance abroad could lead to jail?"

Qin Huai: … Not again, what are you two thinking...

"What short videos have you been watching lately?" Qin Huai was quite aware of An Youyou's entertainment habits. She liked anything that didn't cost money, binge-watching novels on pirated sites and browsing short videos were her favorites.

"Recently, I've been watching 'The U.S. President Falls in Love with Me Who Cleans at the White House,'" An Youyou said, "I initially thought it was just some made-up short video, but is it real?"

Qin Huai: "... Watch fewer short videos, instead, you could use your time to watch more snack-making tutorials, you might improve by watching tutorials when you have downtime."

"By the way, Youyou, can you shoot videos? Are your hands steady? How about standing by today and filming a tutorial of my hands while I work, I'll explain as I go. You can review it when you have time at home."
