Afterward.
Si Yan placed the kitchen knife on the cutting board and neatly pulled off all the lower legs of the Ghost Infant Worm.
When processing the hard shell of the Ghost Infant Worm, Si Yan picked up a pair of tweezers, carefully picked out a black thread from the fifth row, and then gently pulled it out.
Similarly, at the fifth segment, after pulling out the black thread, one only needed to grab the shell and gently pull it to both sides, and the shell of the Ghost Infant Worm would come off.
In less than ten seconds, Si Yan had finished processing one Ghost Infant Worm.
Clean and efficient, without any hesitation.
"What the hell?"
Seeing this, Niu Du could not help but let out an exclamation!
Although he did not know how to cook, he had heard a thing or two about how these ingredients were processed.
The chef who had just died would have taken at least a minute to process a single Ghost Infant Worm!
He never expected that this Human before him would take only ten seconds!
"Not bad! Even that guy from before couldn't have been as skilled as you!"
Niu Du brought up the Ghost Chef who had been killed by the Loli earlier for comparison.
"Kid, what is your name?"
Niu Du's eyes widened as he asked for Si Yan's name.
"Si Yan."
Niu Du nodded, then suddenly grinned: "Not bad, not bad! My name is Niu Du! Si Yan, how about you do the cooking from now on?"
That's right, this was the result Si Yan wanted most.
When he first arrived at the Yin Quan Inn, the reason Si Yan did not rush to choose to be a chef, besides observing the rules of the Yin Quan Inn, was for two other reasons.
First, to avoid being ostracized by the Ghost Chef; second, to improve his own status.
If he had volunteered to cook, he would inevitably have been envied by the Head Chef of the Yin Quan Inn. If he stuffed a Ghost Infant Worm into his bed in the middle of the night, his little manhood would be in jeopardy.
The second point was the issue of status.
Now that the Ghost Chef had been killed by that unknown Loli, he had become the only person in the kitchen who knew how to cook.
Wouldn't his status naturally rise?
Seeing that Si Yan remained silent for a long time, Niu Du seemed a bit anxious: "What? Do you think the pay is too low? If you become the chef, I will give you 100 Ghost Coins a day!"
"100 Ghost Coins?"
Upon hearing 100 Ghost Coins, the few eagle country people nearby showed expressions of extreme shock!
This kid's daily wage was actually equal to five days' worth for the people here!
"Oh? If those ghosts think my cooking doesn't taste good, your Yin Quan Inn might just go under."
Si Yan said indifferently.
"No big deal! As long as it's not that Loli from last time, the others wouldn't dare do anything to you!"
Niu Du patted his own shoulder with great confidence.
Si Yan nodded thoughtfully: "Alright, no problem."
The guests at table eleven probably wanted to eat this Ghost Infant Worm. Seeing that Niu Du was still watching from the side, Si Yan decided to show him what he could do.
Si Yan quickly processed a few Ghost Infant Worms, then set up a pot to boil water, blanched the Ghost Infant Worms in the hot water, and fished them out.
He started another pot with oil, threw in all the scallions, ginger, garlic, and dried chili peppers, stir-fried them, added the Ghost Infant Worms, tossed them, and added five spoonfuls of salt and one-third of a bucket of soy sauce.
He kept the heat at about fifty percent, added a little water-diluted starch, stir-fried for a moment, and covered the pot with a lid.
When it was time to take it off the heat, he added a little bit of scallion, and it was done!
"This..."
Niu Du looked at the stir-fried Ghost Infant Worm in front of him in disbelief and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Good heavens!
It smelled so damn good!
"Have you made this dish before?"
Niu Du seemed to believe that there must be this dish of stir-fried Ghost Infant Worm in the Human world.
Otherwise, this Human wouldn't be so smooth at making it!
Si Yan shook his head: "Never made it."
"Then how do you know how to make it? And why does it smell so good?"
Niu Du asked in disbelief.
"Feeling."
Feeling?
Niu Du now wished he could just bring an axe down on Si Yan's head!
Niu Du used chopsticks to pick up a piece of the Ghost Infant Worm and put it in his mouth to chew.
Gradually, he went from initial suspicion to understanding, and then to intoxication!
Niu Du had completely lost control of his facial expressions!
"Hurry up and serve the food!"
Niu Du didn't say anything else, but turned his head and roared at those eagle country people.
Rogers tremblingly took the prepared stir-fried Ghost Infant Worm and handed it to the waiting Ghostly Waiter.
It took less than three minutes.
The Ghostly Waiter from outside rushed into the kitchen with great excitement.
"Manager Niu, the guests at table eleven just now thought this stir-fried Ghost Infant Worm was absolutely delicious! They want three more servings!"
"Also, they hope to see this chef in person; they really like it!"
【Ding! Congratulations to the Host for gaining 10 Professional Charm Points! Ghost Chef Cuisine proficiency increased: 90%!】
【Professional standard: senior; Ghost Chef Cuisine: 90%】
【Professional Charm Points: 290】
As the system sound rang out, Si Yan smiled with satisfaction.
Finally broke through 90%!
It seems that previously in the Vampire Castle, perhaps because he was only cooking for the Vladimir Family, the way to gain Professional Charm Points was too singular.
Now, the customers in this Yin Quan Inn come from all over.
Perhaps before the game ends, he will be able to reach 100% senior Ghost Chef!
Seeing the customers' feedback was so good, Si Yan got busy in the kitchen.
Braised Earth Dragon Brain, roasted poisonous turtle, turtle egg yolk pie, and so on.
Si Yan did not have a moment of rest all morning.
And with the arrival of noon, the customer traffic reached its peak!
"What the hell? Did the Yin Quan Inn change chefs? Why is the food so delicious?"
"Yeah! I didn't think they had any specialties before!"
"Not bad! Manager Niu really knows how to do business! When will he invite him to come to my Widow Niu's place to hang out?"
"Don't do that! I'll go to your place tonight and make sure you're happy~"
The noon traffic was truly terrifying, packed with ghosts!
All the Fierce Ghosts were eating with great relish, and they didn't even have any interest in the Human Players around them anymore.
When Niu Du saw this scene, his mouth was almost stretched to his ears.
He really didn't expect that the inn's business could be this good!
He made a fortune!
He estimated that when the boss and the others returned, they would definitely praise him!
Niu Du looked at Si Yan, who was busy stir-frying in the kitchen, and felt overjoyed in his heart.
This was a cash cow!
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the day was over.
Si Yan was also quite exhausted. Although he knew how to make every dish, he couldn't handle the fact that there were simply too many guests!
At night, Niu Du looked at today's bill and nodded with great satisfaction.
After paying the wages to all the other employees, Niu Du came to Si Yan and nodded with satisfaction: "Si Yan, you did a great job! This is your pay for today!"
Under the envious eyes of everyone, Niu Du actually gave Si Yan 200 Ghost Coins directly!
"The extra 100 Ghost Coins are an additional reward for you!"
Niu Du said with satisfaction: "Everyone, get off work! Keep up the good work tomorrow!"
After saying this, Niu Du was about to leave when he turned his head and said to the two Little Minotaurs: "By the way, arrange a top-tier guest room for Si Yan. We cannot treat our chef poorly!"
