[Sword III] Life skills take you to fly

"Uncle, what do you think of my skills now?" The first round of the Famous Chefs Club was over, and five groups were drawn for the second round. Chen Zixin's luck was not very good, and Wan Xin was drawn.Although he himself is still confident of winning, an opponent like Wan Xin cannot be taken lightly.

The topic of the second session has been released, with the theme of 'jade'.At this moment, Chen Zixin made a pearl, emerald and white jade soup, and was tasting it with his uncle.Chen Zixin's uncle was invited to this famous chef meeting as a referee. He is also a chef for many years and has more right to speak.

"Well, the meat of white silver carp is ground into fish balls and decorated with pearls, which are flexible and firm; the crane bucket cabbage is decorated with emeralds, which are fresh and delicious; my Chen family's secret gall water tofu is decorated with white jade, which is as smooth as water. Three flavors They complement each other, and the concept is good, so there is no need to worry about the next level." Chen Shengrao has tasted delicious food for a long time, and the taste of this dish made him secretly sigh.

This is a long-lost ancient recipe found by the ancestors of the Chen family. After many generations of wisdom, it has been put together into the current appearance. Although the name is similar to the pearl jade white jade soup on the market, the connotation is absolutely incomparable from the outside.The younger generation in the family have studied a lot, and it is Chen Zixin who has the best comprehension.

"Since uncle said so, then I feel more at ease." Chen Zixin couldn't help but smile. Before the celebrity chef meeting, the family members had to pay more attention to Wanxin. It's at your fingertips.

"Although Wanxin has some skills, his background is too weak after all. How can Wanbaolou compare with my Chen family? Celebrity chefs will not only compare the chef's own skills, but also the power behind him. After all, Wanbaolou only After more than [-] years of development, my Chen family has lasted for hundreds of years, with dozens of generations, leaving countless secret recipes. No matter how talented those born in Yeluzi are, it is difficult to compete with everyone." Chen Sheng is not mocking, he is right is a common phenomenon.After all, the level of culinary skills is reflected in all aspects, and those who do not have years of background and only rely on their own creations, and those who stand directly on the shoulders of giants, will eventually take more detours.

"What uncle said is exactly, if I can beat Wan Xin in this match, then what else should I pay attention to?" Chen Zixin asked cautiously. In fact, he already had a candidate in his heart, but he still wanted to hear what his uncle had to say.

"Although I seem to be at peace, I still have one thing to worry about." As if thinking of something, Chen Sheng's face became serious, not as relaxed and cheerful as before.

"Uncle said, it's Jixiangju Fangxing Building." This is what Chen Zixin has always wanted to ask. He himself became famous at the age of 20, and everyone praised him for being young and promising. Fang Xinglou is only eleven or twelve years old, and he can also advance Ten, although there is no guarantee that there will be no successors, it is also unprecedented.Chen Zixin knew the hard work behind the fame at a young age, so he paid more attention to the star building who can pass the first level at a young age. "What did Uncle think of the pan-fried goldfish he made in the first scene?"

"It's this one." Chen Sheng followed his beard, narrowed his eyes slightly, and carefully recalled the taste of the pan-fried golden fish. Infinity, in order to understand how to eat, he can only continue to pick one bite, so you can see that the dishes on the field are his cleanest. In fact, six points of the success of the dish depend on the ingredients themselves, one point depends on the seasoning, and only three It depends on the craftsmanship of the maker."

"In this way, isn't his craftsmanship commonplace? After all, such ingredients are not available everywhere, and it also requires a bit of luck."

"It would be great if this is the case. I have inquired about the people who saw his production process. The techniques he uses are quite simple, but the rules are strict and there is no trace of his mastery. Except for the gold-thread fish itself, which is commendable, only the cooking wine may be secret. Ordinarily, other things are not obvious. Those who can do things like this are either out of their wits to fight for a position, or they have too many cards and can't bear to show them in the first game. I hope it is the first possibility."

The two possibilities are [-]-[-], and Chen Sheng is also a little worried. After all, what he is most afraid of is not a known opponent, but a completely unfamiliar existence.The Chen family worked so hard for Chen Zixin's victory. They thought there was only Wan Xin as a threat. A group of people from his hometown had studied him for a long time and Chen Zixin's winning rate was so high.

"I heard that before he came to Yingzhou Mansion, he was only cooking for people in a small town, and now the level revealed is not obvious. We have to wait for the second round to make plans."

"That's right, the only match between him and Jinxiufang Zhou is ahead of you, and you will go to watch the match with me the day after tomorrow. The theme this time is jade, and the only thing Zhou will most likely cook is Jinxiufang's signature dish Furong Jinxiu. Vegetables can't be covered by the way. It's a donkey or a horse, and you'll know when the time comes."

At this time, Xinglou is also preparing the dishes he will cook for the next show, and he wants to taste them with his family.It's a dim sum - jadeite siu mai.

"The skin is as thin as paper, and the color is like emerald." Among the people watching, Yang Zhi was quite reserved, starting his evaluation from the appearance.Jing Yuan Yueying threw it into her mouth without being polite.

"Sweet and oily, sweet and fragrant. Don't worry, what you did is much better than Zhou Weiyi." Jing Yuan watched Xinglou trying to improve the previous recipe day and night, and even his fingers were smoky red from the steamer. The final finished product will naturally be praised again and again.What's more, this siu mai is completely worthy of this evaluation.Yueying nodded again and again, her mouth was full and she didn't speak in time, she was a step too late for fear that Xinglou would belittle herself again.

"When did you taste Zhou Weiyi's dishes?" He asked with a smile. With a family who has always supported him like this, it must be said that Xinglou was indeed delighted.In order not to rely on the system all the time, this time Xinglou added and modified this dish on the basis of the skill recipe. The ingredients used are also common outside. It can be said that it took a lot of effort.Fortunately, the results are gratifying.

"Having tasted your food, how can I still be in the mood to taste other people's food." Now Jing Yuan's beautiful words are becoming more and more handy, which makes Xing Lou unable to hide the corner of his mouth.

"Grandpa Yang, what do you think of my winning rate this time?" It's still reliable to ask a professional.

"It's really good. Even a person like me who is not used to eating sweets will have an appetite. This time the theme is jade. If I don't expect it, the only thing Zhou can cook is Jinxiu Fang's signature dish, Furong Jinxiu. Furong is also a kind of jade. , that dish is still widely sought after since it was launched. Zhou Weiyi has no reason not to use it ready-made for winning. I have tasted it before..." The words stopped halfway, which made the other three people who were listening engrossed feel dissatisfied for a while .

"Grandpa Yang, don't be a fool."

"—You still have a big chance of winning." Yang Zhi is also a cautious person. If he said it like this, he was very sure of Xinglou's victory.Xinglou also let go of his worries when he heard the words. In order not to lose Yang Zhi's people, he didn't dare to ask for apprenticeship. Now that he is expected to enter the top five, he naturally wants to give Yang Zhi a name.Then he made up his mind, got up and dusted off the hem of his clothes, and knelt down straight in front of Yang Zhi.

"Good boy, what are you doing?" Yang Zhi was a little anxious, and suddenly realized Xinglou's thoughts, his eyes were slightly moist.

"Grandpa Yang, you not only helped Yueying, but also helped me a lot this time, teaching me techniques and recipes of Yang's seasoning. I, Fang Xinglou, are not ungrateful. Although you have no other requests, I have to give myself an explanation." After saying that, he kowtowed three times, but Yang Zhi didn't stop him, it would be hypocritical to stop him at such a time. "Would you like to accept me as an apprentice?"

If Jixiangju was still prosperous and the Yang family was still in its heyday, Yang Zhi would not have felt so deeply.At that time, he was famous and talented, and there were a lot of people vying to be his apprentices, but in the end he didn't know them well and recruited a white-eyed wolf.But now I'm just a poor old man with broken hands, and I don't even have the opportunity to set an example for my apprentices as a teacher. Some people are willing to worship me as a teacher and serve me because of a favor.

"Okay, okay, good apprentice! God has taken me well." As he spoke, he couldn't help but burst into tears. Compared with the previous apprentice, it seemed that the star building was even more precious.Thinking that I have experienced great storms in my life, from gaining fame and wealth, to having nothing, and now turning around, I can pass on the mantle of Jixiangju before it is too late, and I am worthy of the ancestors of the Yang family.

"Master is above, and I will be worshipped by my disciples." It was for gratitude before, but now it is for establishing the status of master and apprentice.Although the form is simple, none of the people present are the kind of people who care about the scene.No matter how grand it is, it doesn't take it seriously when it meets someone who is ungrateful.Conversely, as long as you have the heart, the simplicity of the form does not conceal the innocence.

Yang Zhi firstly wanted not to humiliate Xinglou's talent, and secondly, he wanted to pass on all of himself faster, so the requirements for Xinglou became stricter.Xinglou was also happy with this, stepped up his studies, and improved his skills in a short period of time.

"Brother A Yuan, there is someone outside looking at our house." Yue Ying hugged the Great Sage and was eating melon seeds at the door, and noticed a person outside sneaking around the door of her house several times in a row, and immediately filed a complaint when she saw Jing Yuan coming out.

Jing Yuan took a closer look, the man turned his head and pretended to be shopping.The streets outside are also lively, and the stalls and vendors are uneven. It is not easy for Jing Yuan to ask directly without actual evidence.Look at the people coming and going around, and you have to think carefully if you want to do bad things, and this kind of little thief can't do anything big.

"Yueying, go in and sit, the sun is shining here. Your brother made Jade Shaomai again, and it's in the kitchen."

"Okay—" Hearing this, the great sage jumped out of his arms and slipped to the kitchen, and Yue Ying hurriedly followed.

Smiling helplessly shook his head.Because Xinglou treats his younger sister as his daughter's pet all these years, and it has not changed, Jing Yuan has been more tolerant of the little girl because of his influence.These days, due to his deep cooking skills, the ingredients at home are almost used up, so Xinglou sent Jing Yuan out to buy some.

When she came out with siu mai, one person sent a post, Yueying answered the post and sent the person away.After the first round of the Celebrity Chef Club, the dark horse of Xinglou has gained a lot of limelight, and people keep sending posts, presumably because those who are used to the taste of Yingzhou want to try others.

However, Xinglou was busy preparing for the second stage and usually had no time, so Haosheng wrote back and said that he would make plans after the celebrity chef meeting, and most of them expressed their understanding.Yueying also picked up several times, from the beginning when she stuttered in the reply to the ability to act independently later on, Xinglou also felt relieved by her.

After a while, he found that the Great Sage had run out. This monkey was very clever. He could come back from playing at any time with a bunch of melon seeds and other gifts. Yue Ying was not worried.But this time the Great Sage came back very quickly, dancing around in circles at Yueying's feet, and it took Yueying a long time to understand what it meant.

"Brother, someone is robbing the Great Sage's snacks—"
