405: Teach a Man to Fish 2.0
After entering the kitchen, Jiang Lingling listed all the ingredients needed to cook the shacha sauce for Ye Su to see:
"These are the things needed."
Onions, garlic, shallots, chili powder, peanut powder, fish sauce, white sesame seeds, dried shrimp...
The raw materials for making shacha sauce were densely packed, numbering nearly twenty, which seemed more complex than those sold on the market.
After Ye Su took out his phone, took a photo of all the ingredients, and turned on the video recording function, Jiang Lingling began to process the materials while explaining the precautions and the approximate proportions of the ingredients.
She first soaked the dried shrimp and dried scallops in warm water to soften them. Taking advantage of this time, Jiang Lingling prepared the ingredients that needed to be stir-fried and crushed.
Then, she minced the soaked dried shrimp and scallops and added them into the pot one after another according to the steps.
"The rest is just to simmer slowly over low heat, stirring constantly to prevent the shacha sauce from burning at the bottom.
When it feels like there's no more moisture and the shacha sauce becomes thick, if you scoop it up with a spatula and it clings to it, then it's basically done."
Ye Su was like a diligent student, watching the cooking process of the shacha sauce with great concentration, while nodding to Jiang Lingling: "Okay, I understand."
After another ten minutes or so, the kitchen was filled with the rich aroma of spices, and the shacha sauce in the pot had been cooked into a shiny, deep brownish-red color. Jiang Lingling turned off the gas stove and showed the spatula to Ye Su:
"Look, it's ready once it's cooked like this. Is my explanation clear enough?"
"It's enough." Ye Su nodded repeatedly: "This is basically hand-holding instruction. If it weren't clear enough, I would have to doubt my own intelligence."
[Ding!]
Just as Ye Su replied, the system's notification sound rang in his mind.
[The Host has watched the entire process of Jiang Lingling making shacha sauce. The system has successfully recorded it and is now beginning to further improve the recipe. Please wait, Host...]
[Recipe improvement is complete. Now generating a new video tutorial for the Host. Please open the system to view the new tutorial and the required raw materials!]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully obtaining the shacha sauce recipe. The system's [Grocery Store] function is now unlocked for the Host. The Host can go to the [Grocery Store] to purchase the relevant high-quality raw materials needed for the shacha sauce!]
Finally got it!
Ye Su was ecstatic inside, but his face did not show any abnormality.
"I've filmed the recipe video, so our transaction is complete. Let's add each other on WeChat, you send me your bank account number, and I'll transfer the 200,000 to you. As for the contract, we'll sign it after I draft it."
"Okay!"
Thinking that a single shacha sauce recipe from her family actually sold for 200,000, Jiang Lingling's heart was pounding.
She had never seen such a large sum of money in her life!
Jiang Lingling had already decided that once the money Ye Su transferred arrived, she would send it home.
Upon reaching the living room, she picked up her phone and scanned Ye Su's friend code, then waited for Ye Su to accept the friend request.
Just then, Su Yingxuan also excitedly picked up her phone: "We haven't added each other as friends yet, let's add one too."
"Of course."
Ye Su turned his phone screen towards Su Yingxuan and added her as a friend as well.
After accepting both friend requests, Ye Su received Jiang Lingling's bank card account number.
Without any hesitation, Ye Su transferred 200,000 to Jiang Lingling on the spot.
"I've transferred the money to you. Check later to see if it has arrived."
"Okay!"
Putting down his phone, Ye Su chatted with the three of them for a while. During this time, Jiang Lingling opened her phone and indeed found that there was an extra 200,000 in her bank card.
Looking at that long string of numbers, Jiang Lingling wanted to pinch herself to see if she was dreaming.
"By the way, you two said you were looking for jobs next month. I still don't know what you two actually do?"
"I was just a jack-of-all-trades before," Su Yingxuan said. "My previous company made short videos, and I was responsible for directing and operations, and sometimes I was even squeezed to edit videos."
Ye Su, who had never been toughened by society, couldn't help but grimace when he heard that Su Yingxuan had to be responsible for so many tasks: "You have to be responsible for so much work!"
"Of course," Su Yingxuan complained. "Those small companies outside wish they could hire only one employee, pay only one salary, and then have that employee do all the work!"
The two people next to them who couldn't stay in their internship companies nodded with deep understanding upon hearing this, obviously having also experienced the oppression of capitalists.
It was precisely because of this that Jiang Lingling and Su Yingxuan envied Yu Jinle so much for being able to meet such an excellent boss as Ye Su.
"What about you, Lingling?"
"In the company, I was mainly responsible for product promotion and advertising."
"I see on the internet that the current environment outside is not very good. Is it hard to find a job?"
"Pretty much. I heard from HR that once a position is posted, hundreds of people greet her, and she can't even reply to them all.
And when there are many people looking for work, companies take the opportunity to suppress wages. Even if the job posting says 6 to 8K, after the interview, they tell you they can only give 5K at most. If you don't do it, there are plenty of others who will."
"Wow, it can be like that!"
Ye Su, who had never looked for a job, gained some knowledge after hearing Su Yingxuan's complaints.
[Ding!]
[Su Yingxuan and Jiang Lingling are currently worried about finding jobs. This time, [hidden task - Teaching a Man to Fish 2.0] is triggered for the Host!]
[Task Name: Teaching a Man to Fish 2.0!]
[Task Content: Provide a job for both Su Yingxuan and Jiang Lingling.]
[Task Reward: For every target provided with a job, the Host will receive a reward: 500,000 in cash, 5 points of [Physique] attribute, and a [storage space] (one).]
[Note 1: Su Yingxuan works in short video directing and operations and can help the Host establish a self-media company.]
[Note 2: Jiang Lingling works in product promotion and advertising and can help the Host promote the shacha sauce and its related industries in the future.]
Teaching a man to fish, and there's a 2.0 version!
The Teaching a Man to Fish 1.0 version triggered yesterday was to provide a job for Meng Feiyu, which Ye Su has not yet completed.
Now another 2.0 version has been triggered, asking him to provide jobs for Su Yingxuan and Jiang Lingling as well.
For every person he recruits, he can get 500,000 in cash, 5 points of [Physique] attribute, and a [storage space]. This is simply a guaranteed profitable business!
Establish a self-media company and recruit Su Yingxuan to do directing and operations?
Ye Su had this idea early on. He planned to start a self-media company, and after Chen Xinyi resigned, he would recruit her into the company, allowing her to focus on being a self-media blogger.
Once the short dramas become popular in the future, it would be easier whether she wants to do live-streaming sales or become a female star.
Now, taking advantage of this opportunity, Ye Su felt it was time to start this plan.
As for letting Jiang Lingling be responsible for product promotion and advertising, that goes without saying.
Whether he wants to sell shacha sauce alone or develop catering like beef hot pot as an exclusive recipe, someone is needed to be responsible for promotion, and Jiang Lingling is indeed a suitable candidate.
