Ranch Story: Start Over

If you don't please the master who is willing to teach you, who are you going to please?

Feng Ling rode his 38-inch bicycle, and after injecting stable magic power, he sped away, just like a power-assisted bicycle. The 38-inch bicycle passed pedestrians and magic bicycles, and shuttled all the way, finally arriving at Dart's hotel before seven o'clock. After putting the magic bicycle into the space pendant, Feng Ling trotted towards the kitchen.

Uncle Dart had already gathered everyone in the back kitchen for a small meeting. In addition to telling everyone to pay attention to safety matters, he then pulled Feng Ling over and introduced everyone:

"Dear colleagues, this is our new chef, Feng Ling. I'm sure everyone has tasted the egg fried rice this afternoon. What do you think?"

“Delicious, delicious.”

"Boss, this guy is too young. Is his cooking skill already so strong?"

"Chef, can you teach me a trick?"

……

Feng Ling saw that everyone was not rejecting him, but greeted him enthusiastically. He also responded to everyone with a silly smile. This smile made everyone feel that Feng Ling was a technical chef who was easy to get along with.

"Since everyone believes in Feng Ling, then I have only one request for you!"

“I have secured Feng Ling’s cooking instruction rights for you, so as long as you do your best, you can consult him if you don’t understand anything, except the basics, or anything a little difficult.

As for how to do it, it's up to you. From now on, every night, when he's here, you can follow him and help him learn. Remember?"

"Long live the boss!"

"Thank you, boss, and thank you, Chef Feng Ling!"

"Is the chef so nice that he's willing to teach us these things?"

“Thank you chef, thank you boss for the gift!”

……

Seeing the crowd's warm applause and gratitude, Feng Ling stood up and pressed his hands, and everyone slowly quieted down.

"Thank you all for your kindness. As Uncle Dart said, we will work together in the future, and I am willing to teach you. Don't worry about me stealing your jobs."

Looking at Feng Ling, he said jokingly:

"Because I traveled around the continent for many years before, and I just recently returned to Mineral Town. Now Morningwind Ranch is where I am."

"I know this. There lives an old hero there."

An apprentice raised his hand and said.

Feng Ling smiled at him and said:

"Yes, that's my grandfather. Now, he has handed the ranch over to me, so the responsibility of revitalizing the ranch falls on my shoulders. Therefore, being the chef here is just one of my jobs. But I hope that after I teach you, even if you leave Mineral Town and venture out into the world, you will not embarrass me and Uncle Dart."

Feng Ling showed a confident aura and said loudly:

"There is no order of learning; the most accomplished are the teachers. If you are willing to learn, I am willing to teach. Read more and think more before you start. If you don't understand, discuss with each other and then ask me. This is what I ask of you."

“Good job Chef!”

"Okay master!"

"Call me Master!"

"Yes, yes, it should be."

……

Looking at the people who were full of fighting spirit, Dart nodded with satisfaction.

"The preparations are starting now. The hotel will officially open at 8 o'clock, so we have to take advantage of this break to get the preparations done."

Dart stood aside and watched Feng Ling, who was giving orders, adjust everyone's corresponding work roles in a reasonable and orderly manner according to their previous positions.

It was not as complicated as hotels in big cities. Feng Ling adjusted the work arrangements of the two assistants, one regular employee and five new apprentices according to the hotel's business conditions.

I walked up to Dart and said:

"Uncle Dart, are you sure you want to train them? I can guarantee that it will not affect the hotel's normal serving of dishes at night, but if they learn, some food will inevitably be wasted."

Dart patted Feng Ling on the shoulder and said:

"Teach them. They are all children sent by my relatives to work as summer interns. Before, only the two assistants and the regular employee managed the kitchen with me."

After hearing Dart explain the whole story, Feng Ling nodded. It seemed that there was no need to worry about waste.

Feng Ling hurriedly greeted Dart's three old friends. When you think about it, this large group of people all have more or less relationship with Dart. Feng Ling was too lazy to worry about the relationship and just did his best.

"Are there many guests tonight?"

"Some people will start showing up at 7:30. Now you need to get everyone ready."

Feng Ling clapped his hands and said to everyone:

"Everyone, Uncle Dart has already explained the whole thing to me, so let's start with the basics."

"What is it?"

Looking at everyone looking at him curiously.

Feng Ling took out a kitchen knife from the shelf, and then took out a white radish from the vegetable basket.

"Carved flowers!"

Feng Ling then took out a carving knife and said to the crowd facing the white radish:

"Conventional carving is nothing more than using the technique, shape, and strength of the cutter to remove the excess and unnecessary areas, and then carving it out in the desired shape."

Feng Ling used a planer to peel the skin of the white radish and then used a small carving knife to scratch the radish a few times. He motioned for everyone to take a look. When they didn't see anything strange, Feng Ling moved the peeled radish away, revealing four huge petals.

"666, the chef's cuts were so fast just now. I thought he just made a few random cuts."

Feng Ling introduced:

"I just drew four ovals and overlapped them to form the outline of the petals. You can see that I was very fast, but you can't imagine how skillfully I controlled my strength."

Having said that, Feng Ling pointed to the cucumber in his hand, and then asked everyone to look at the scimitar-shaped tool in his hand. Then he turned the cucumber in his hand, and cut the cucumber with his scimitar.

Feng Ling introduced while moving:

"First of all, I'd like to state that I'm just a mid-level fighter."

"This can't be true! This power is controlled too precisely."

"Uncle Tang, you are already a high-level warrior, can you do this?"

"Don't look at me. I can't do it. I've never seen such a level of control over power."

……

Everyone was discussing in whispers, but they saw the cucumber in Feng Ling's hand spinning faster and faster, but the cucumber was still connected and not broken at all.

Feng Ling was also full of surprises. He did not expect that some of the techniques from the original world could be controlled so precisely in this world. Perhaps it was because the original Feng Ling had polished the basics too perfectly, and had extremely precise control over strength and magic power, which led to Feng Ling's elegance when cooking now.

Feng Ling gradually stopped cutting with his scimitar and said:

"This is the precision and stability of power control. You just saw that I didn't use magic to maintain the balance of the cucumber. Now, let's see what this cucumber has become."

Feng Ling slowly spread out the cucumber slices, and as he pulled them, they eventually formed a spiral cucumber slice. The thickness of the slices was perfect, and the thinness was as transparent as a wing. It was like a work of art in front of everyone, and the apprentices couldn't help but admire it. Even the three old employees, although they were old, kept praising it.

Feng Ling also exclaimed with satisfaction. He didn't expect that he could perform so effortlessly.

"Don't think that what I made is a bit fancy. You have to remember that the food that chefs make is for people to eat. Everyone likes to eat a variety of types of dishes. Food like mine, such thin cucumber slices, is the first choice for those elderly people with bad teeth who like good-looking food. Don't you agree?"

For elderly people who cannot chew properly, or those who have lost all their teeth but do not want the hassle of having dentures, this refreshing and tender soup is perfect for them. Cucumbers are rich in nutrients, and combined with the superb cooking skills, they can definitely make a unique dish.

Feng Ling skillfully took out two big potatoes, peeled them and cut them into three long sticks for everyone.

The three long sticks were the same size and length. Feng Ling smiled:

"The potato is a great prop. Now, let me cut it."

Feng Ling recalled the potato towers in his original world, then took out three bamboo sticks and pierced through the middle of the potato sticks. Then, he cut them using the same method. Soon, three potato towers appeared in Feng Ling's hands.

Looking at the three identical potato towers, if an outsider came in to see, he would definitely think that they were made by a machine, and this is Feng Ling's confidence.
