Food starts with Mapo Tofu

For a moment, Chen Nian couldn't help being a little surprised, he didn't expect Lucas to be able to hear this.

"It's a pity that I don't know how to play the erhu, otherwise I have to play a song for you."

Then Chen Nian hummed the songs of House of Flying Daggers, Two Springs Reflecting the Moon, etc., but Lucas could hear all of them.

"Awesome, if you hadn't run out and continued to be your musician, you should be considered a world-renowned music master by now." Chen Nian couldn't help saying.

Unexpectedly, Lucas shook his head indifferently: "What's the use of a music master? Those are just the evaluations of others. As a musician, I still want to let myself live this life without regrets."

Chen Nian sighed, and suddenly found that Lucas was somewhat similar to himself.

And if it is true, Lucas is stronger than himself.

Because he is completely a self without a system.

I can come into contact with food from different places through dreams, but Lucas has spent more than 20 years getting in touch with different music in the world relying on his feet.

"By the way, Chen Nian, I heard that you are Mr. Huo's apprentice?" Lucas suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked curiously.

"Yes."

Lucas has also been on the ship for more than half a month, and he also understood Mr. Huo's position on the ship, and looked at Chen Nian with some complaints for a while: "Then you have never been with me before. Having said that, I thought the only similarity between the two of you was that you were from the same country."

Chen Nian spread his hands, pretending to be innocent: "Then you didn't ask."

When Lucas heard what Chen Nian said, he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"In fact, there is nothing to say about this kind of thing. I took the initiative to say it, as if it seemed that I was showing off, and I felt that if I didn't learn anything from the master, I would use the name of the master to show off all day long. It won’t make people feel great, but it will make people feel ashamed.”

Chen Nian explained.

Although Chen Nian's personality is more cheerful and outgoing now, being cheerful does not mean a tiger, and being outgoing does not mean a brave.

What to do and what not to do, Chen Nian knew clearly.

Moreover, what Chen Nian knows best is the character of a person. Although he has only met Mr. Huo a few times, he can tell that Mr. Huo is not the kind of person who likes to show off.

Personality is also more restrained.

And it's just right to do it yourself.

It's just the antidote for the old age, which in Lucas's view is a sign of humility.

In this way, they chatted and ate.

Now that most of the guests have disembarked and went to Sydney for fun, there is no one on board.

At this time, chefs naturally don't have to prepare any work.

Every time the ship docks, this is not only a time for guests on board to land and rest, but also a time for them, the employees, to take a break.

Leaving aside the location of these several docking supplies, working on this ship, the old feeling is quite good.

...

The salary is high, there are bonuses, and there are not so many things to do every day, and you can take a break every 20 days, and the rest time varies from one day to five days.

And it's good to work and eat in the kitchen here.

If you are clever, you can meet some customers and build a good relationship with them.

The disadvantage is that when you first get on the ship, you will not get used to it. You will be seasick all day long. Even if it is the rest time, you can only move around on this ship.

You can't just jump off the boat and swim back, can you?
In addition, there are not many entertainment facilities on the ship, and those casinos are open to guests, and the staff are never allowed to entertain in them.

So the crew members gathered to gamble by themselves every day.

Colleagues often come to ask Chen Nian to play with him for a while, but Chen Nian refuses, because he really doesn't like this aspect and has little experience.

If you go to play, the possibility of losing is even greater. Although it is useless to ask for so much money in the dream, it is also the money I have worked so hard to earn. I just lost it all overnight. unacceptable.

Even if you are lucky enough to win, but the so-called nine loses out of ten bets, even if you win back, you will lose soon.

Fortunately, Chen Nian's friends didn't touch these things either.

Back to the topic, because the ship stops ashore for supplies and the guests are allowed to go ashore for fun, so now everyone eats in the restaurant.

Including some of the staff on this ship.

But when Chen Nian and Lucas were eating in the restaurant, a voice suddenly came from not far away.

"Mr. Lucas?"

The two subconsciously looked in the direction of the source of the sound...

"Sir, you are..."

The two don't seem to know each other well.

"It's normal for Mr. Lucas not to recognize me. My name is Paul. I live on the third floor. When I come to the restaurant for lunch every day, I can enjoy the beautiful music of Mr. Lucas.

And if I remember correctly, Mr. Lucas has been famous more than 20 years ago, but in the past 20 years, Mr. Lucas has never heard of it. "

Lucas saw that the other party recognized him, and after introducing himself, he guessed that the other party should be someone who likes his music.

So he also smiled: "First of all, I am very grateful to Mr. Paul for his love. In the past 20 years, I have been traveling all over the world to listen to different types of music, and I have rarely returned to the United States."

When Lucas said this, he admitted in a disguised form that he was the music prodigy back then.

Soon Paul walked towards this side: "Actually, I also heard your music back then, but unfortunately I haven't heard it again for more than 20 years."

Paul walked and talked.

"Just a while ago, I suddenly felt that the music I heard was more familiar, but when I looked up, I found that it was you." Paul said that he had already come here, "Do you mind having one more person?"

The two of them naturally wouldn't say they didn't mind.

Soon Paul sat down again and looked at Chen Nian: "I didn't expect Master Chen to be here. I voted for your dishes in the food voting contest earlier."

...

When Chen Nian heard this, he quickly thanked him.

"It seems that the two of you have a good relationship, but Mr. Lucas came later, so he must not know that besides being a particularly good chef, Master Chen is also very brave.

Some time ago, there was a fatal accident on the ship, and it was Master Chen who bravely caught the real gangster. "

Hearing what the other party said, Chen Nian suddenly remembered!

No wonder, he felt the name Paul was familiar just now!

Because Anna told himself at the beginning that he suspected that there might be a man named Paul behind West's move.

This man competed with Anna's father in business, and this matter was brought up to the second officer after West was caught.

It's just that since then, this matter has never been mentioned by anyone.

All those involved in the death were dealt with, only Paul was fine.

Chen Nian knew that the Platinum Star had scruples and didn't want to offend Paul, but seeing the suspect who hurt Anna's parents appear here in a grand manner, Chen Nian still felt a little uncomfortable.

It's just that he couldn't say those things even if he was uncomfortable.

But it can be seen that the reason why Paul came here was for Lucas, so he left after chatting a little here, but before leaving, he asked Lucas to have dinner together at night.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Paul, I may not have time at night, because apart from work, I also spend two hours every night studying music."

Paul obviously didn't expect that he would be rejected, but he still smiled quickly: "It's okay, then we will meet again when we have time."

Just after Paul left, Chen Nian asked curiously: "Why did you reject him? Why didn't I know that you still study music every night?"

Chen Nian was a little confused about this.

After all, in the past period of time, Lucas often ran to the kitchen at night to steal food from him.

"Actually, it's because I don't really want to go, because I feel that this person is not sincere. When talking to him, I can always feel that every move he makes and every word he says has another purpose."

Chen Nian couldn't help but nodded: "Indeed."

However, as Lucas spoke, he became curious about the accident that Paul had mentioned earlier. There was no other way, so Chen Nian had to tell the other party about it, but he skipped the matter that Paul might be involved in it.

They chatted for a while, and after the food on the table was finished, Chen Nian went back to the room to rest.

In the past few days, he can sleep well.

No need to work and no need to organize the daily affairs.

"very nice."

Looking at the busy crowd on the pier outside through the window, Chen Nian couldn't help but feel very comfortable.

"The next stop is Hawaii." Chen Nian couldn't help thinking about the next thing. Jakarta and Sydney were not interested in vintage, but he still wanted to visit Hawaii.

The main reason is that Chen Nian has seen those rich people in TV dramas since he was a child, and when he goes abroad for vacation, he always goes to Hawaii.

Or in the anime, every time the Shinigami elementary school student shows a new skill, he will say that he learned it when he was in Hawaii.

...

It's so old that I now think that there is a special training base for various skills in Hawaii.

Just thinking about it, suddenly there was a knock on the door.

He went up to open the door and saw that it was Tonio.

I saw Tonio standing at the door looking at himself with great interest, and then raised his hands: "Do you think I bought you something good?"

Chen Nian looked curiously at the thing in Tonio's right hand, and vaguely saw that it seemed to be meat.

"You bought me some barbecue?" Chen Nian didn't know why Tonio brought these for himself.

"That's right, it's barbecue. Didn't you say before that you have no interest in Australia, the only thing you are interested in is kangaroos and koalas? So I bought these two for you. You see, this is roast kangaroo meat, this It's koala meat."

Chen Nian: "..."

Good guy, you are too straight, I said I like these two animals, but I didn't say I like eating them!

In the end, you actually bought me the barbecue of these two things.

For a moment, Chen Nian was a little dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.

But in the end, Chen Nian accepted Tonio's heart: "Thank you, I will have a good chat with the two of them later."

"It's okay, as long as you like it, I plan to go out for a stroll in the next few days, and bring back some interesting things for you when I see them." Tonio said enthusiastically.

Looking at this passionate Italian, Chen Nian felt warm in his heart: "Thank you then, I will treat you to whatever you want to eat or play after you get to Hawaii!"

"Hahaha, so you want to go to Hawaii to play, no problem, you are rich, I will never be polite to you then!"

Chen Nian sent the enthusiastic Tonio away with a smile. Seeing Tonio rushing off the boat again, not knowing where he was going to play, Chen Nian closed the door, looked at the two lumps of meat on the table and fell into deep thought.

Look at the one on the left first, the bigger one should be the roast kangaroo, because the whole looks very thick.

Chen Nian found a small knife and cut a piece of meat from it.

Then put it in your mouth.

"Well, I eat firewood, the meat is slightly sour, other than that the taste is nothing special, the meat is not like beef and mutton, and judging by this level, Tonio probably didn't ask me to fully cook it. The pattern on the surface should be in the Baked on a slate.

As for this sauce..." Chen Nian shook his head as he ate it, the sauce was prepared well, but it still had no special features. Overall, it felt that the only presence of the sauce was to cover up the sour taste of the meat itself.

Although the chef has tried his best to make this piece of roast kangaroo meat, but due to the ingredients themselves, it can only be said to be that way.

But for old age, the significance of eating kangaroo meat is greater than the taste.

"From today on, buddies are also the ones who have eaten kangaroo meat."

Thinking of such words, I can't help but feel a little funny, but at least the roast kangaroo meat bought here during this period is at least real.

Finally, Chen Nian looked at the koala on the side.

It was the first time for Chen Nian to see a koala, but he didn't expect to meet this little guy for the first time in this way.

"But I didn't expect that someone would bake and eat this thing?" Chen Nian couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Because he knows that koalas usually eat eucalyptus leaves, and eucalyptus is poisonous, and there are very few animals in nature that will actively eat koalas.

"The koalas have been poisoned so stupidly, yet there are still people eating them?" Chen Nian sighed as he spoke.

In the end, Chen Nian still put away the koala's meat. After all, although Chen Nian liked the cute and cute appearance of koalas, he didn't want to be so stupid.
