Chapter 378: The Double Crab Bao was really made?!

~9 min read 1,770 words

Qin Huai definitely wasn't bragging; he had 100% confidence in making the Double Crab Bao.

Because he knew he had completely mastered this dim sum, whether it was the wonderful fusion of red and white cases, the high-difficulty seasoning, or the thickening that could be called the soul in the process of making the filling, Qin Huai had mastered them all.

The only problem now was purely the culinary skills—Qin Huai had many skills that didn't meet the standard, such as red case level, such as thickening, such as the seasoning and processing of sea cucumbers.

Now Qin Huai could be said to have achieved great success in his mental method, only lacking technical training. In this regard, Qin Huai was very similar to the Xu Nuo described by Shi Dadan. Xu Nuo had A-level culinary skills and S-level consciousness, while Qin Huai had about B+ level culinary skills and A+ level consciousness for the Double Crab Bao.

With such consciousness and partners from the Double Crab Bao research team who could make up for his technical shortcomings, Qin Huai was very confident in making the Double Crab Bao.

Qin Huai started stir-frying and seasoning the filling directly. This was the most important step, the step that determined the soul of the Double Crab Bao.

Huang Anyao, who had been sent away by Gong Liang, realized it and came back, holding a bag of bananas in his hand, staring at Gong Liang with a face full of accusation, his face full of "Uncle Gong, I trusted you so much, but you actually lied to me."

The indignant Huang Anyao returned to his post and continued to block Gong Liang, never letting him take a step into the kitchen.

Huang Shengli took a banana from his son, stood beside Qin Huai, eating and watching, watching Qin Huai's movements carefully.

Although Qin Huai hadn't learned the Double Crab Bao for a long time, his movements were already quite proficient.

Stir-frying.

Advanced heat control was enough for ordinary pastry making. After all, there were many chefs in small stir-fry shops these days whose skills were not bad and might only have advanced heat control.

But there was still a difference between advanced and advanced. After all, the "advanced" skill had a full 100,000 proficiency points. Luo Jun's heat control was undoubtedly much better than Qin Huai's, but as for whether Luo Jun's heat control had reached the master level, Qin Huai felt it might not be.

Qin Huai used his standard, exaggerated, seemingly outrageous movements for Qin-style stir-frying.

It wasn't just Huang Shengli who was staring at Qin Huai. To be precise, almost everyone in the Huang Ji back kitchen who was qualified to stare at Qin Huai openly and wasn't working was staring at Qin Huai at this moment.

Dong Shi was crowded at the very back because his seniority wasn't high enough and he talked too much, so everyone found him noisy.

Dong Shi muttered: "Is it my hallucination? Why do I feel that Qin Huai's heat control is much stronger than before? Although he still looks like he's going to stir-fry the vegetables out of the pot at any time when he's stir-frying, why do I feel that this movement is quite methodical?"

"Quite like a unique skill."

"Is this the legendary 'there is a great Confucian to argue the scriptures for me'?"

No one paid attention to Dong Shi. Everyone was watching the movements and timing of Qin Huai wielding the spatula. His movements were outrageous, but his timing was excellent.

When to stir-fry, when to press down, when to move the pot, when to adjust the heat—Qin Huai was like a veteran teacher who had worked in the back kitchen for more than ten years and had a lot of experience, knowing almost everything about the dishes in the pot.

Except for the movements being a bit outrageous, and some places where it could be clearly seen that his consciousness had arrived but his hands hadn't followed, almost no shortcomings could be picked out.

Almost everyone's heart surged with the same idiom.

Reborn.

Even Wang Jun, who was usually the most reticent, the least willing to participate in chatting about gossip, and often started a relationship alone and then ended it silently, couldn't help but turn back and ask Dong Shi:

"Xiao Jiu, you said last time that Qin Huai seemed to have taken a master."

"Who exactly is that master?"

To this, Dong Shi could only say blankly: "I don't know."

"I only heard that Qin Huai seemed to have taken a master. I also don't know how he managed to be so outrageous before taking a master, and even more outrageous after taking a master."

"Is this reasonable?"

If Qin Huai could hear Dong Shi's exclamation, he would definitely reply: "Reasonable, brother, this is very reasonable."

Then he would take out his phone, show Dong Shi the secret recipe document inside, and tell him that the unreasonable things were here.

Qin Huai felt that his performance today was okay. He didn't perform extraordinarily, nor did he make any mistakes. Just like when he made baozi at the Qin family breakfast shop every morning before, this was his daily work. You have to complete it every day, and as long as you do it, the customers will be satisfied.

Qin Huai did it, only waiting for the customers to be satisfied.

After pinching the pleats of the last baozi, Qin Huai turned his wrists and was about to find a steamer. Turning his head, he saw that the few Huang Ji helpers who had been helping him had already consciously started working. Only the last step of steaming remained. Master Qin also felt there was no need to do it himself, just reminding: "Steam on high heat for 8 minutes first, then turn to low heat. Be sure to set the time well."

Huang Shengli stood beside Qin Huai and watched the whole process of Qin Huai making the Double Crab Bao. He didn't speak, just took out his phone and sent a message to Zheng Da after Qin Huai went to guard the baozi by the steamer.

Huang Shengli: Did you set off?

Huang Shengli: If you haven't set off, don't rush over. Morning or afternoon is the same. I see Xiao Qin's Double Crab Bao is made quite well, and he doesn't need any of your guidance or help. He did indeed make the Double Crab Bao.

Zheng Da replied almost instantly:??? I'm at the door!

The next second, Zheng Da almost burst in, rushing straight into the kitchen, which stunned Huang Anyao. Gong Liang took advantage of the chaos to squeeze forward two steps, wanting to slip in to get close to Luo Jun, but was blocked again by the alert Huang Anyao.

Gong Liang: Why is this unlucky kid so stubborn?

Zheng Da didn't notice anything at the kitchen entrance at all. He rushed into the kitchen and shouted in a voice full of incredulity:

"The Double Crab Bao was really made?"

Twenty minutes later—

"The Double Crab Bao was really made."

The same scene, the same people, the same words, different tones.

Zheng Da gnawed on the Double Crab Bao, only feeling that sadness surrounded him again. Although he had already guessed that today might be like this yesterday, he actually held a glimmer of expectation in his heart.

What if Qin Huai and the others hadn't really handled it and needed him, Old Master Zheng, to appear brilliantly?

This was a good opportunity for him, Master Zheng, to restore his reputation, turn the tide, and win everyone's praise.

Unfortunately, there was no such opportunity at all.

Qin Huai made a full six steamers of baozi in this batch, enough for every employee of Huang Ji to have two. To make up for the regret of not being able to get up in the morning and not letting everyone eat chicken soup noodles, Qin Huai directly distributed these six steamers of baozi to everyone, without selling them. The ones for sale would be made later.

The cooperation efficiency of the Double Crab Bao research team was still quite high, and Qin Huai's efficiency in making Double Crab Bao was higher than making Four-Joy Tangtuan.

Gong Liang and Huang Anyao sat at the door, looking at each other and eating Double Crab Bao. To prevent Gong Liang from taking the opportunity to slip in, Huang Anyao had to stare at the other party even while eating baozi.

Gong Liang realized that although this unlucky kid was easily tricked, he had a serious stress response to being tricked because he had been tricked by too many people over the years.

Sigh, if I had known, I wouldn't have tricked the unlucky kid. Gong Liang gnawed on the baozi, and a trace of guilt rose in his heart.

Qin Huai was also gnawing on the baozi. Seeing the two still deadlocked at the door, he felt a bit strange and walked over directly to ask: "What's the situation with you two? Huang Anyao, why are you still holding bananas in your hand?"

"Eh, these bananas look good. I'll have one first." Qin Huai only ate a bowl of wontons in the morning and wasn't full at all. Now he had only gnawed two bites of the baozi. Seeing the bananas, he wanted another banana.

After finishing, Qin Huai reached out directly, took the bag, broke off a banana, and ate it.

Huang Anyao was stunned and turned to look at Gong Liang.

"So Uncle Gong, you didn't lie to me. It really was Qin Huai who wanted to eat bananas."

Qin Huai:?

Gong Liang smiled slightly, with an expression of "this is nothing, how could your Uncle Gong lie to you": "Anyao, you just have a misunderstanding of Uncle Gong. Although Uncle Gong likes to say nice things when doing sales, Uncle Gong never lies."

Qin Huai gnawed on the banana silently, appreciating Gong Liang's performance.

The next second, a game prompt sounded in Qin Huai's mind.

"Ding, discovered a new side quest. Please check it on the game panel."

Eh, another new side quest triggered.

Judging from the current situation, it is likely Gong Liang's side quest. I didn't expect this trip to Suzhou to be so fruitful. First, it triggered Shi Dadan's side quest, and then Gong Liang's.

It seems that he really can't go back to the mountain city after 10 days.

I don't know if he can go back after 30 days.
