Chapter 1624: Courting death and having to court death

Translator: 549690339 

Huang Fei, Wang Qiang, Hao Cheng, Liu Li, the four-person team of notebook, were currently in a room at the Hilton Hotel with a very serious expression.

Why was he so serious? it was mainly because what Wang Qiang was about to do was very dangerous.

First of all, the four members of the notebook team were all extraordinary.

Hao Cheng was the proudest disciple of the five tigers of su cuisine, hang Tian. Huang Fei, born in a family of chefs, was very famous in su hang. Wang Qiang’s father was Wang Jike, one of the five tigers of Jiangsu cuisine.

As for Liu Li, although he was fat and his master’s reputation was not as good as hang Tian ‘s, his Grandmaster was known as the founder of the new era of Jinling cuisines, and his seniority was one generation higher than the five tigers.

Speaking of the eight major cuisines, besides Cantonese cuisines, the commercial promotion intensity of Sichuan cuisines and Jiangsu cuisines in the country was obviously higher than that of other cuisines.

Such an achievement was all thanks to the batch of Sichuan and Jiangsu chefs from the 1950s and 1960s. Therefore, to show respect, the five most outstanding people at that time were called the five tigers, while the Sichuan Province was called the four pillars.

The current chairman of Sichuan cuisine, Zhang Yan, was the head of the four pillars. As for the details of the five tigers and four pillars, they were from the previous generation, so there was no need to elaborate.

Now, although Wang Jike was not as famous as hang Tian, he had a lot of prestige. Wang Jike’s best dish was “Yangzhou San Cha,” which was even called the Wang family San Cha.

Wang Qiang’s cooking skills were naturally taught by Wang Jike since he was young, so he was very familiar with his father’s Trident.

Before yesterday, or to be precise, before yesterday’s dinner, Wang Qiang had always been sure that his father’s Trident was the best.

However, after eating boss Yuan’s barbecued duck, barbecued Pomfret, and the recipe, Wang Qiang had another judgment in his heart. His father’s Trident seemed to still have room for improvement.

Yes, although it was hard to believe, Wang Qiang had confirmed it again and again. During the meal yesterday, Huang Fei, Liu Li, and Hao Cheng saw that Wang Qiang’s expression was not right, so they didn’t touch the three dishes.

After Wang Qiang finished eating and confirmed it, he shut himself in the room without saying anything.

It was normal for him to be like this. Wang Qiang had been eating his father’s Trident since he was five years old. Now, it was equivalent to overturning something that he had known for more than 20 years.

For example, if someone were to tell you that He Jin didn’t look like Mr. Wang Gang, according to the unofficial and some remote historical records, He Jin was as handsome as Mr. Wang Gang, you would have to take a while before you could accept it.

After thinking about it for the whole night, Wang Qiang still decided to tell his father about this. So in the morning, Wang Qiang told the other three friends about this, and that was how the scene began.

Speaking of which, Huang Fei, Hao Cheng, Wang Qiang and Liu Li had been saying that they were here to learn about Jiangsu cuisine. Although they only had a few pages of notes, not having breakfast in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was their last bit of stubbornness.

After all, Yuan Zhou rarely cooked Jiangsu dishes and snacks for breakfast.

Yes, this was the decision made after eating breakfast for a week.

“Wang Qiang, I think you should reconsider.” Huang Fei said.

Liu Li patted his fat belly as well. He liked to Pat his belly like this when he was thinking. He wondered if it hurt.

He said,”I think it’s better not to say it. Besides, I’ve also eaten head chef Wang’s Trident. It was also very delicious. I think it’s not worse than boss Yuan ‘s.”

“Liu Li, you don’t eat much. The last time you ate it was probably half a year ago,” Wang Qiang said, shaking his head.

“I think it was half a year ago.” “But my taste buds have a very good memory,” Liu Li said immediately.”I can remember everything I ate in the past year.”

“I’m not doubting your talent. ” “On the whole, my father’s Trident is not inferior to head chef Yuan ‘s,” Wang Qiang said.”So, Liu Li, your feeling is correct. However, in terms of the details, I should say that there are some slight differences.”

“I’m really going to call you brother Qiang. You and I both know head chef Wang’s personality.” Hao Cheng said.

As a matter of fact, Yuan Zhou’s reputation in China was unparalleled after his personal culinary exhibition. However, Wang Jike was a chef of the older generation, and a chef who had created a brilliant era.

Not everyone could be like master Cheng, not to mention Wang Jike, who was famous for being concerned about his face. It should be known that Wang Jike had lost three points to hang Tian in a match when he was young … Until now, Wang Jike was still studying and vowing to defeat hang Tian.

As the other party involved, hang Tian was also helpless, because his theory was: Whether the food is good or not, personal subjective factors take up a large part, so there’s no need to be too calculative about winning or losing.”

However, Wang Jike thought that it was because he was not good at cooking, and he had been holding back his anger.

If it was someone else, Wang Jike’s attitude and research would have definitely surpassed his opponent. Unfortunately, he met hang Tian, who was rated as a “genius chef that only appears once in 20 years” by master Liu Li.

More than ten years had passed, but the gap between Wang Jike and hang Tian had not narrowed at all. It was still the same.

If you wanted to say that Wang Jike was stingy, he wasn ‘t.

His son, Wang Qiang, and Hao Cheng had been good friends since they were young, and Wang Jike had never said anything. In his opinion,”what happened in the previous generation has nothing to do with the next generation.”

Simply put, according to Hao Cheng and the others ‘understanding of Wang Jike, if Wang Qiang said,”dad, I think boss Yuan’s Trident is more delicious. You still have room for improvement”, Wang Qiang might be beaten to death, even if it was his own son.

“I feel that there are some things that should still be done.” Wang Qiang said seriously.

Hao Cheng and the others all knew Wang Jike’s character, and as his son, he naturally knew it better. But Wang Qiang knew something else. His father had always wanted to surpass hang Tian, and maybe “Yangzhou San Cha” was a very good opportunity.

“I’ll call my dad and tell him about this. ” “I hope he can come to Chengdu,” Wang Qiang said.

It was obvious that he had already made up his mind. Hao Cheng and the others could not persuade him anymore and could only mourn for Wang Qiang in their hearts.

The main character, Yuan Zhou, didn’t know anything. To him, it was just that someone ordered the Yangzhou Trident yesterday and then Yuan Zhou cooked the three dishes seriously.

“Eh? Hao Cheng and the other three didn’t come this afternoon?” Yuan Zhou took a look at the people waiting in line at the door. Normally, he would be able to see Liu Li’s chubby body as soon as he glanced over. After all, it was very obvious that he was as chubby as two people. However, he didn’t see that today.

The reason why Yuan Zhou paid a little more attention to it was that Hao Cheng and the others had given him the ancient books.

It wasn’t because of the value of the gift. Although the ancient book itself was very valuable, it was mainly because Yuan Zhou would return the courtesy when Hao Cheng and the others were polite enough. For example, when he cooked the Jiangsu dishes that they ordered, he would deliberately slow down.

Moreover, Yuan Zhou and master hang Tian were old friends. If they were to really talk about it, although Hao Cheng and the others were a few years older than Yuan Zhou, they were still considered nephews. Therefore, they should take care of him a little.

Ever since Yuan Zhou greeted them last time, the four-man team of the notebook computer had been coming here at noon and at night every day. Today was an exception. By the time Yuan Zhou sorted out his mood, the first batch of customers had already entered the restaurant.

“Boss Yuan, one medium-well beef steak and one rice with soy sauce from the 100 styles of rice cuisines.” Zhou Jia reported the menu to Yuan Zhou after she received the money.

Eh, 50% steak plus soy sauce with rice, wasn’t this a habit of Chu Xiao? Yuan Zhou muttered in the heart.

He raised his head and found that it was really Chu Xiao who was sitting quietly and waiting for the food.

“I remember that it takes ten hours to fly from Paris to Chengdu, and sixteen hours to transfer. He was still in France last night, but he managed to make it to the first batch of lunch today. He’s a werewolf.” Yuan Zhou muttered in the heart.

Was it really on the way France to Chengdu? Yuan Zhou couldn’t help believing Chu Xiao’s words.

Although Yuan Zhou had a lot of thoughts in his mind, his expression remained unchanged. Not only that, but he had also started to fry the steak.

Not only Chu Xiao, but Zheng Jiawei and Wu Hai also came.

Just like before, Zheng Jiawei ordered all the dishes that Wu Hai liked.

Well … It wasn’t right to say that. Wu Hai liked all the dishes in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant.

The first, second, and third batch of customers entered the restaurant one after another.

Speaking of which, there was one more person, and that was the poor boss, Wu Yungui. He ran over breathlessly, but the place was full.

“Hu hu hu … I’m impressed. I came here for Yangzhou fried rice this afternoon, but the traffic is giving me goosebumps.” Wu Yungui was sitting on a long bench next to the shop. He was not happy until he ate.

“Old Wu, I understand how you feel.” Lee Yanyi, who was also sitting on the bench, said.

“Eh?” Wu Yungui looked at Lee Yanyi and then the two of them looked at each other to confirm the look in their eyes. They were both people who couldn’t eat the delicious food because of the traffic jam and delayed the queue.

The queuing system of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant would always make many regular customers fail, just like Lee Yanyi and Wu Yungui today.

“What has elder li been up to recently?” Wu Yungui asked.

In fact, Wu Yungui and Lee Yanyi were not familiar with each other. But now that there was a traffic jam at the entrance, they naturally opened their mouths to chat.

“I’ve been having a meeting recently to promote the new chef rating. ” Lee Yanyi said.

“New chef rating?” Wu Yungui was interested.

“Yes, the current ranking of chefs is still the same as the rules set in 2011. Beginner, intermediate, and advanced Chinese chef, followed by beginner, intermediate, and advanced technician.” “It’s indeed time to change,”Lee Yanyi said.

“What should I change it to?” Wu Yungui asked.

“This evaluation change was pushed by the chef’s Association. As for the specific changes and the handover of the old evaluation system, they are still in discussion and can’t be decided for a while.” Lee Yanyi said.

“How’s the food City going, boss Wu?”he asked.

“Thanks to boss Yuan’s great fortune, my gourmet city has already invited seven Michelin chefs, three of which are three-star Michelin chefs.” Wu Yungui’s words were very smug.

He should be proud of it. Even France, the birthplace of Michelin, didn’t have a Food City. It was impossible to have so many Michelin chefs.

“Not bad, boss Wu. It looks like the food City is doing well. When will I come over for a meal?” Lee Yanyi said.

As a famous food critic, Lee Yanyi’s meal was definitely not as simple as eating.

Wu Yungui also understood Lee Yanyi’s meaning, so he said,””No problem. But old Li, there is one thing that I must say in advance. You can’t judge with boss Yuan’s standards.”

“Those Michelin chefs are all foreigners. You can’t completely destroy their young hearts.” Wu Yungui said.

“Don’t worry, I know what to do. ” Lee Yanyi said.

The two of them sat down and chatted for a while. Then, Lee Yanyi left first. As for Wu Yungui, besides wanting to eat delicious food, he had another matter to attend to. Therefore, he planned to leave after the lunch service.

Of course, he couldn’t just wait and be hungry. Therefore, Wu Yun GUI chose Li Li’s Western restaurant.

When the last batch of customers entered the restaurant, Taoxi road was still very lively.

Some people said that traveling was to go from a place you were tired of to a place where others were tired of. Regardless of whether this saying was right or not, many foodies would find a guide to search for the city’s “food street,””Food Plaza,””food street” and so on when they arrived at a new place.

In Chengdu, apart from Yuan Zhou’s golden signboard, Taoxi road and Wu Yungui’s Food City were the first to be promoted.

When the food City was first opened, the head chefs of seven Michelin restaurants opened their restaurants and caused a sensation all over the world.

However, boss Yuan was busy at that time and didn’t go to the opening ceremony. Therefore, he didn’t say much about it.

This place was filled with delicious food. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a Holy Land for foodies.

Moreover, Wu Yungui felt that as long as Yuan Zhou was here, there might be more than 100 restaurants in his Food City one day, all of which were opened by Michelin chefs.

In the fourth batch of customers, there was another customer who wanted to challenge Yuan Zhou on the 100 styles of rice cuisines. The result was definitely that he returned in defeat.

In the past, when someone challenged him, the customers would be interested in watching, but now … They were not interested. After all, the result of a challenge was already known.

In the past, Queen Jiang liked to look for all sorts of 100 styles of rice cuisine. Of course, that was a long time ago.

After watching the last batch of customers leave, Yuan Zhou started to send out the invitation letters,””Jiawei, this is the invitation. I hope you can come when you have time.”

Zheng Jiawei received it with both hands and then thanked him,””Thank you, boss Yuan. The only thing that can make little hai jump up and down must be boss Yuan’s treat, right?”

Basically, he had guessed it right. No one knew whether Zheng Jiawei knew Wu Hai very well or he was very smart.

“It’s just a small token to thank you for your help to the restaurant. ” Yuan Zhou said.

“I should be the one thanking boss Yuan.” Zheng Jiawei said.

Then, Chu Xiao also stood beside Yuan Zhou without anyone knowing.

“Chu Xiao, this is the invitation letter. I hope you have time then.” Yuan Zhou took out another letter and handed it to her.

“Okay, I’ll try to find time to be there.” “I still have a plane to catch. I’ll be leaving first,” said Chu Yao.

Chu Xiao was also a resolute and decisive person. He left after saying that.

It was at this moment that Tang Xi popped her head out and said with a smile,””Hehe, boss Yuan, here I come.”

“Lunch time is over, so we can’t eat now.” Wu Hai said.

“Yesterday, I heard our Prince Charming’s call and left early in the morning. But I suddenly emptied my shopping cart yesterday, so … I don’t have much money.” Tang Xi said with a bitter face. She had also come so late on purpose.

“If you had said so earlier, I would have treated you to it.” Wu Hai was quite generous.

“The last two times, it was you who treated us. We can’t let you treat us again.” Tang Xi shook her head and said.

Wu Hai said indifferently,”that’s nothing. How much can a meal cost? why do you care about this?”

“I have to care about it. Friends should treat each other if you want to.” “That’s why Brother Wu is waiting for me to save money to treat you to a meal,”said Tang Xi.

“Hahahaha, I’ll be waiting.” Wu Hai liked it the most when others treated him to a meal. Therefore, he burst into laughter.

“Qianqian, this is your invitation. I hope you’ll be free when the time comes.” Yuan Zhou said.

“Hahaha, I finally got it. I want to see what it is that brother Wu is so proud of.” When Tang Xi prepared to open the package, she asked Yuan Zhou,””I opened it in front of you. Boss Yuan, you don’t mind, right?”

“I don’t mind,” Yuan Zhou said.

Tang Xi opened it and took a look. Her throat moved and she swallowed.

“I’ve never seen a whole roasted cow before. Thank you, boss Yuan,”she said.

After Tang Xi and Yuan Zhou exchanged some pleasantries, she left happily. Wu Hai and Zheng Jiawei also left.

Wu Yungui, who had been waiting for a long time, came in.
