Chapter 8 - Cooking A Big Pot Of Rice, Greatly Increasing Your Proficiency

"My cooking skills are pretty good, how about I cook a dish for you to see?"

Li Heng was a little helpless. He didn't expect that being a volunteer was so troublesome. If he had known it, he wouldn't have come.

Mr. Sun said: "I see, you are a good young man. With your body type, you must be a good cook."

After Mr. Sun finished speaking, he looked at Li Heng.

Then, he looked at Bailihua again.

In this nursing home, the one who really speaks the truth is none other than the youngest Bai Lihua.

Bai Lihua smiled and said: "Forget it, right? Those who can come as volunteers are all out of good intentions, so there is no need to go to so much trouble. Master Wan, you can go directly to the kitchen with me."

Wan Qiang didn't think much about it. Anyway, he just worked part-time and did whatever his boss told him to do.

When Mr. Sun saw this, he was about to say something, but was pulled away by Bai Lihua.

When Li Heng saw this, he nodded secretly in his heart.

No matter what, it feels good to be trusted.

They were the only two people left in the cafeteria.

"Little brother, my name is Wan Qiang. You can just call me Master Wan. All the old guys in the courtyard call me that. How should I call you?"

"Li Heng." Li Heng said softly, "Please take good care of me in the future."

Wan Qiang smiled and said: "You are a volunteer, and I can't let you do too tiring work. How are your knife skills?"

Li Heng understood that he wanted to cut vegetables by himself, but if he wanted to gain proficiency in his cooking skills, he had to do it from beginning to end. There was no way to gain proficiency by just chopping vegetables.

Therefore, it is impossible for him to work as a cook, which would be of no benefit to him.

"Master Wan, why don't I cook a dish for you to try? My skills are pretty good. If you think it's okay, let me try cooking."

Li Heng directly expressed his thoughts.

Wan Qiang frowned.

However, when he thought that the other person was a volunteer and might leave after one day, he couldn't help but think to himself, if he was really good at his craftsmanship, wouldn't it be much easier for him to share some of the work with him?

Anyway, volunteers don't get paid.

When he thought of this, he immediately coughed and said, "Brother Li Heng, cooking a big pot of food is very tiring, you..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw that Li Heng had already walked into the kitchen. He came to the chopping board, picked up a cucumber, picked up the kitchen knife, and raised the knife with his hand.

Just hearing the sound of "dang-dang-dang", a cucumber was cut into coir raincoat cucumbers in a short time.

This scene happened in just twenty seconds.

Wan Qiang was even in a state of confusion at this moment.

When he walked quickly to Li Heng, he picked up the coir raincoat cucumber and unfolded it. He took a look and suddenly showed a surprised look.

Of course he can cut coir raincoat cucumbers, but it's hard to do it successfully the first time, and he can't cut it so fast.

However, he carefully observed that although the coir raincoat cucumbers cut by Li Heng were not as thin as those cut by chefs with excellent knife skills on the Internet, each piece of cucumber was extremely even, as if it had been measured with a ruler.

Putting down the coir raincoat and cucumber, he looked at Li Heng in surprise.

"Brother Li Heng, your skills are not bad. Let's try making another dish. If you can, you will be responsible for cooking part of the dish."

There are not many people in the nursing home. Although it is a big pot, it is not that big.

Li Heng agreed, but he did not use the cauldron. After all, he was just showing off his skills.

He plans to make a dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, which is what he is best at.

He eats this dish almost every day.

Therefore, it is done very quickly, with almost no unnecessary tricks.

In just ten minutes, a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes that was delicious in color, smell and taste was ready.

Wan Qiang watched the creation of this dish and now basically recognizes Li Heng's cooking skills.

However, he still pointed to today's lunch menu and said, "How many of these dishes can you make?"

His original intention was to let Li Heng pick a few things that he knew how to cook, and he and other chefs would share the rest.

Unexpectedly, Li Heng said directly: "I can cook all these dishes, but after all, it is a dish for three hundred people. I definitely can't finish it by myself. Today is my first day here. I want to just cook tomatoes and scrambled eggs."

There are a total of ten dishes on the menu, and in addition to Master Wang who is on leave, there are four chefs in the back kitchen. The four people plus a dozen assistant chefs, the task is actually quite heavy.

However, Li Heng is now responsible for making a dish, which makes the kitchen a lot easier.

In fact, Li Heng would like to bear all the burden, but his current body is too weak and he cannot afford such tiring work.

After all, this is a big pot of food, and it is a test of physical strength and strength.

His physical fitness is really bad.

Wan Qiang said with a smile: "Okay, then you can make scrambled eggs with tomatoes. By the way, how about I try your cooking?"

Wan Qiang picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece, put it in his mouth and tasted it.

For a moment, his eyes lit up slightly.

Then he opened his eyes and said with admiration: "Not bad, his skills are no worse than mine."

"Thank you." Li Heng responded directly without being modest.

Afterwards, the kitchen got busy.

Feeding three hundred people is not a small workload. Even if it is spread equally among a dozen people, it will still be tiring.

Especially for Li Heng, a person with extremely poor physique, he was so exhausted that he was sweating profusely and his hands and feet were weak.

However, the notification sound in his mind made most of his fatigue disappear in an instant.

[Ding, you made a big pot of rice once, your cooking proficiency +30]

Making a big pot meal once is equivalent to making home-cooked meals fifteen times, and you don't have to buy the ingredients yourself.

How could Li Heng be unhappy?

With a happy mood, Li Heng no longer felt tired.

At this rate, it seems that he will be able to upgrade his cooking skills to level 3 in less than a month.

After lunch was done, Li Heng said something to Wan Qiang and drove away.

He is a volunteer, and the nursing home does not have to pay him a salary. He can leave whenever he wants. Besides, he also helped cook a dish, so no one can stop him from leaving early.

Li Heng drove home in fifteen minutes.

First I looked at Bobo, poured some cat food, and then took a video of Bobo and sent it to Zhang Yingying.

After resting for a while, I was ready to go out for a run.

He now runs ten kilometers in the morning and evening, which means he has 20 proficiency points in one day. He can upgrade his running skills in less than a month.

Although the intensity of his running hurts his joints, he can recover as long as his skills are upgraded, so he is training with all his strength.

If someone else practiced like this, they would be useless long ago.

In the afternoon, after running another ten kilometers, he went to Shengkang Nursing Home to make dinner. He was so tired that he could hardly stand up straight.

But he didn't complain at all. Instead, he felt that his life was very fulfilling.

If anyone had a property panel, they would be in the same mood as him.

Shengkang Nursing Home, just finished cooking dinner, Li Hengli collapsed on a wicker chair in the garden.

Mr. Sun shook his cattail leaf fan and walked over with a smile.

"Young man, you are very capable!" Surprisingly, Mr. Sun did not harm anyone, which surprised the other old men nearby.

You must know that Mr. Sun has a very bad mouth. He seems to feel uncomfortable without cursing. It is rare to hear complimentary words from his mouth.

Li Heng smiled bitterly and said, "Don't bury me anymore, I'm almost exhausted."

Mr. Sun smiled and said: "I haven't seen such a motivated young man like you in a few years. Today's young people are good at everything. They just want to enjoy themselves and don't want to endure hardship."

Li Heng smiled helplessly, who doesn't like to enjoy, and who is willing to suffer if he can enjoy it.

"I'm not that good. You always give me awards." Li Heng said modestly.

Mr. Sun patted him on the shoulder with a cattail leaf fan and said, "You boy, work hard. At least cook like this every day. It's good for your health and you may be able to lose weight."

After saying this, Mr. Sun smiled and walked away.

When the old men around him saw this, they all looked surprised. Old Sun's character had not changed, and his mouth was still the same.

Li Heng had a dark streak in his head, and his good mood turned bad again.

Suddenly, he felt something behind his back. When he got up and looked, it was an envelope.

Picking it up and looking at it, the envelope said: Boy, this is for you!

Sent to me?

What?

He carefully opened the envelope and found money inside.

After counting, there were actually 500 yuan.

Is this for yourself?

But you are a volunteer?

"Forget it, put it away first and ask Bai Lihua later."

He had some vague guesses about Bai Lihua's identity.

This nursing home should belong to her family.

I collected the envelope, said hello to the old men and women around me, and left the Shengkang Nursing Home.

He first sent a message to Bai Lihua, and after confirming that this was a personal reward from Mr. Sun, he accepted it calmly.

However, my heart felt warm.
