Chapter 68

"Master Bi, we will listen to you what you tell us to do, we have won them!" Deng Jiang said excitedly.

"Yes, we won against them!" Deng Hai also cheered.

"Win them!" The rest of the people echoed.

Morale immediately rose.

Bi Cheng was very excited, and ordered: "For the normal three meals a day in the past few days, we and the family in Haoyuan Building will take turns to prepare each day. Three days before the banquet, we need to make a list of the ingredients selected for the banquet. Report to the second shopkeeper."

"In the past few days, Ah Tang and I will tell everyone the dishes we have negotiated, so that everyone can have an idea first, and everyone can practice their skills when they are not busy..."

After explaining the basic things, everyone went back to their rooms.

Only Bi Cheng and Yan Yan were left in the room.

Yan Yan made another cup of tea: "This time, how sure are you that you will win?"

Bi Cheng smiled confidently: "I don't dare to boast when I want to compare myself with others. As far as Qu Chunping's level is concerned, hehe, my apprentice really doesn't care about him."

Yan Yan shook her head, and said unhurriedly: "The one you should pay attention to is not Qu Chunping, but another person."

Someone else?

Bi Cheng was a little confused.

Yanyan: "Did you forget, why can't we hire a helper in Luwu City?"

Bi Cheng slapped his forehead: Zhang Fat Cat!
This time, apart from Qu Pingchun, the new head chef of Haoyuanlou, the other staff of Haoyuanlou also came to help.Among them, the chief comprador of Haoyuan Building, Zhang Dafu, is responsible for the procurement of ingredients.

Yan Yan put down the teacup: "Since Zhang Dafu is in charge of the chief comprador, he will definitely trip us up with the ingredients. You need to pay special attention to the ingredients you brought back in the past few days. Don't let anything happen before the banquet."

Bi Cheng nodded quickly: "Hey, apprentice must personally check the ingredients for these few days!"

Yanyan: "There are still three days of fighting banquet, you also need to carefully consider which dishes to choose."

Bi Cheng: "The name of the dish reported, I just thought about it on the way back from Mr. Hao's house. I drafted a recipe for you to read."

He got up and fetched a newly written list and presented it to Yan Yan.

Yanyan took the food order and glanced at it roughly.

The dishes listed on the menu are: Shangfu (1) Bone Meal Lion Head, Soft Pocket Chick (2) Roasted Ma’an Bridge, Cooked Shrimp (4), Babao Jiaguo (5) Mud, Fugui Badger Meat Pancakes, stewed bighead carp (3) heads, steamed fish body with three shreds of soup, steamed tiger head chicken, oily and fragrant meat horn soup...

They are all typical high-quality banquet dishes in this world, and they look lively and decent.

Putting the list back on the table, Yanyan took a sip of tea slowly: "The menu you have drawn up can only be used for the first day's menu at most. And it's the one where you can't win."

Bi Cheng was embarrassed.

The dishes on the list are all his best, and they are also classic dishes that Haoyuanlou used to hold large banquets in the past.

Although his skills are not as good as Yanyan's, if you want to talk about these dishes, they are all well-known kung fu dishes. A cook without real kung fu will feel weak when he looks at this menu.

And Bi Cheng can guarantee that with Qu Pingchun's level, he will not be able to cook a few dishes here.

Bi Cheng originally wanted to use this recipe on the day of the grand finale, but he didn't expect that Yan Yan would give him a chill as soon as he took it out.

Seeing the unconvinced expression on her apprentice's face, Yan Yan smiled.

With nails as beautiful as pearl oysters, she lightly tapped the menu on the table, and Yanyan slowly answered her apprentice's questions.

"We need to prepare two menus, one is for the second steward to hand in, and this one is for Boss Hao, Zhang Fatmao, the second steward and the gang from Haoyuanlou."

"The other one is the real dish that we will serve on the day of the feast. I personally wrote this second recipe, just to catch them off guard."

Bi Cheng frowned habitually: "But the dishes we cook at that time are not the same as those written on the list in the newspaper. Will we lose the big competition? And the side dishes are all purchased according to the list in the newspaper. If we don’t cook according to the list in the newspaper, we don’t even have any ingredients.”

Yan Yan smiled and said: "Did you still expect Zhang Fat Cat to bring us edible ingredients during the days of the fight banquet? Hehe, Zhang Fat Mao was waiting for this opportunity to clean us up. During the days of the fight feast, we didn't The ingredients can be put into the pot!"

Bi Cheng was dumbfounded: "No, it can't be too much, right? After all, this is the mansion of Hao, and there are stewards and Boss Hao!"

Yanyan sneered: "Bi Cheng, remember, as long as someone handles something, no matter how glamorous it looks on the outside, there will be filth behind it!"

Everything is worse than a cup in hand, and the moon is empty for a few hundred years.This is what Yan Yan believes in.

"Zhang Dafu can completely bribe the steward to collude and insist on giving us good ingredients, and the owner will not personally monitor the distribution of ingredients. Then we will have no way to argue!"

"For a big banquet like this, the top dignitaries of the entire Luwu City are sitting here. The news that you have embezzled the rich mansion's ingredients will spread throughout the entire Luwu City in an instant. Which high-ranking official would dare to ask you to cook it in the future? Vegetable? Your reputation, Bicheng, is completely over in Luwu City!"

Bi Cheng's brow was covered with cold sweat...

After receiving Yanyan's hint, he finally understood.

In this troubled world, real ability is not enough to deal with the real thick and dark, ability is not enough, you have to be quick-witted, think long-term, and wily!

Bi Cheng felt both emotional and grateful.

If there is no master Yan Yan, even if he enters the Hao Mansion, he will have to be rectified until there is not even a bone left!
Seeing that Bi Cheng was in a daze, Yan Yan patted him on the shoulder lightly.

She knew that what Bi Cheng needed was more experience and more scenes.With just a few words from her, he still can't learn how to be humane.

"You just draft it according to the normal menu, and hand it over to the second manager according to the stipulated days. As for our own menu, I know it well, so you don't need to worry about it. Just keep an eye on the ordinary meals for these few days. .”

After Yanyan gave her instructions, she got up and prepared to go back to her room.

"Hey!" Bi Cheng came back to his senses, quickly responded, and stood up.

With the master here to take care of the place, he suddenly felt very at ease, and he didn't panic at all.

When sending Yanyan away, Bi Cheng interjected: "On the way back, the second steward mentioned to me about picking out a buddy, but I pushed it away. I think we'll bring people anyway, so instead of worrying about it, If more people come over, it’s better not to clean up any of them. It’s just... I can see from the expression on the second manager’s face that he seems a little unhappy.”

Yan Yan didn't care much: "It's pretty good. Don't bother with this person. Now that the foreign enemy has been established, if we want to win, we must first ensure that there are no internal ghosts under our hands."

"Well! The disciple also means the same thing."

Sending Yan Yan to the door, seeing that she was about to go out, Bi Cheng couldn't help but said: "Master, this apprentice knows that you are coming to the Hao Mansion, and there are other important things to do. This time, the apprentice will know how to deal with the banquet." Take care of the affairs of the banquet, you just go to your own business, don't worry about this end."

Yan Yan stopped and turned to look at Bi Cheng.
