Ping Pong Life

Chapter 20 The Strange Cook
The next thing is all simple.

Wang Chao filled out the application for joining the team on the spot, and quickly passed the team admission review. Half an hour later, he became a substitute player of the Jiangcheng table tennis team. , to enter the semi-closed training mode.

When Wang Mei received a call, she told him to exercise hard and win glory for the country. After she had said some benevolent words, she asked him in a low voice if the 5000 yuan was real.

What Wang Chao said was true, and if he performed well, there would be bonuses.

Wang Mei was very happy, then hung up the phone, and went to find teacher Tony to explain for her son, and I will not express it here.

Jiang Shan verbally disliked Wang Chao, but he was very honest physically. He took the initiative to take Wang Chao to the dormitory, helped him run up and down, and took care of all the trivial matters. Finally, he took Wang Chao to the supermarket to buy daily necessities.

Wang Chao, who had always been flattered and humiliated, finally had an embarrassment at this time.

he has no money...

It's true that he only has a dozen or so dollars all over his body, and the balance in his mobile phone has never exceeded double digits for many years.

Even the 500 yuan that Mr. Tony had advanced to him a few days ago was confiscated by Wang Mei that night.

So in the end, he actually asked a little boy to help him advance the payment, causing the pretty little girl in charge of the cashier in the supermarket to look at him several times. Although the contempt deep in her eyes was light enough, it was still received by Wang Chao.

Wang Chao was busy working until after nine o'clock before returning to the training ground.

"Let me take you with me for the time being." Tian Qi told him: "Your current problem is that your physical fitness is seriously not up to the standard. Don't practice the ball these days, and exercise your body."

Wang Chao readily accepted.

The team members are all young people. Although there were some minor quarrels in the Mingyue Pavilion at the beginning, they have been largely forgotten after a few days.

Everyone watched Wang Chao's two games today, but they admired him more.

Therefore, even though Wang Chao was practicing physical strength beside him, there were still team members who came over to say hello, and some politely asked him for more advice in the future.

After a whole morning, Wang Chao had already recognized all the team members.

It's just that Tian Zhengguang has never been seen.

At noon, Jiang Shan took Wang Chao to the cafeteria.

The cafeteria is very large, with a full range of dishes. Looking at the pots of various dishes behind the transparent window, Wang Chao was a little bit looking forward to it.

"Sauerkraut fish!"

"Blood blood!"

"Crystal prawn balls!"

"Small fried yellow beef!"

"Pine Nut Corn!"

“Lettuce in Oyster Sauce!”

"rice!"

"Noodle!"

"steamed stuffed bun!"

"burrito!"

"Tomato soup!"

“It has everything you need!”

"It's really rich..."

After coming to this world, he really hasn't had a good meal for a long time.

Every morning, there are steamed buns and boiled eggs. At noon, I have lunch with Mr. Tony. In the evening, there are pickles and kimchi and fermented bean curd. It’s as simple as it is.

So much so that at this moment, looking at these brightly colored dishes, I just feel the uncontrollable secretion of saliva, and even my stomach "grunts" very well.

"Thank you that the Chinese table tennis world in this world hasn't started to engage in scientific and nutritious meals..."

He remembers very clearly that in his previous life, scientific food preparation and accurate calorie counting were first developed in a certain country where life was good. In those few years, that small island country began to develop table tennis throughout the country and achieved considerable Good results, and their scientific catering has also been recognized by countries all over the world. In the end, even the Chinese national team began to pay attention to food.

I don't know if the performance has improved. After all, he is already number one in the world, so there is nothing to mention, but one thing is remarkable: the number of fat people in the national team has indeed decreased a lot because of this, which is actually a good thing.

But the national players complain a lot in private, because eating at noon is no longer something to look forward to. Those meals with precisely controlled portions and types make them want to cry.

"Brother, this way." Jiang Shan pulled him aside forcefully: "Don't go there."

"Why?" Wang Chao didn't understand.

It's full of delicious food over there, and it's free anyway, so why not let yourself go there?

Jiang Shan didn't explain, just said: "Trust me, it's true."

Wang Chao took a look at the little kid. He was well-proportioned and tall, very standard. Then he looked at the little kid's dinner plate, broccoli, carrots, vegetable soup, beef, chicken breast, and rice.

He got it.

Although the little boy is young, he has good perseverance. He turns out to be an expert in weight control, and wants to pull himself to be a fellow traveler.

That buddy will not accompany you!
Wang Chao broke free from Jiang Shan's hand, and happily went over to make a spoonful of braised pork, a spoonful of stewed beef, a spoonful of green pepper bacon, and a spoonful of spicy diced chicken, and finally dug out a large ball of rice to fill the dinner plate It was full, so I came back and sat down, ready to eat.

Then Jiang Shan touched his trouser leg, pouted his mouth, and motioned him to look over there.

At some point, a cook wearing a white chef's hat and a full set of chef's uniform followed him silently, sat down at the empty table next to him, and stared straight at him.

Wang Chao was a little confused.

Jiang Shan didn't dare to say more, but only vaguely reminded: "Don't ask, eat quickly, eat as much as you can, don't waste it."

"Will I waste it?" Wang Chao sneered: "Do you know that I have never had a full meal since I wore it, and now I can eat a cow!"

He beautifully picked up a pile of trembling stewed beef that was soft and rotten, squinted his eyes slightly, and stuffed the dripping soup into his mouth. Just the light touch of the tip of his tongue made him feel that his soul was sublimating. Can't help biting down gently.

"Well……"

"So salty..."

"Why does this dish of beef stew with potatoes have such a strong acetic acid smell?"

He almost spit it out, but at this moment, the cook sitting behind spoke.

"Is it salty? It seems that the amount of salt is still not good enough..."

"The smell of acetic acid is because I put balsamic vinegar, because vinegar can promote the dissolution of fiber and make the beef softer and more delicious during the stewing process."

"But I stewed it for three full hours, the texture of this beef should be excellent, young man, what do you think?"

Wang Chao tried his best to force a smile, swallowed the salty lump in his mouth, nodded and said, "It's really good."

After speaking, he took a few sips of the mineral water next to him.

"You try this spicy chicken again, this time I bought a thermometer and a timer, just to make the oil temperature accurate enough when frying, not only to tighten the skin, but also to ensure sufficient juice inside. "

With a little psychological preparation, Wang Chao ate a piece of chicken.

Well, it's okay, it's not as scary as imagined, but it's a little raw, Wang Chao spat out a chicken bone, and saw the blood on it...

"This braised pork dish is my specialty, you might as well try it." The cook introduced enthusiastically.

Wang Chao ate a piece of braised pork.

It's soft enough and rotten enough, but the taste is a bit low. I don't know if there is no salt or no sugar, or no ginger and garlic when frying at the beginning.

What Wang Chao couldn't figure out was that the braised pork tasted so bland, why was it so rosy in color?It looks bright red in the crystal, just like a juicy cherry, soul-stirring.

"You don't understand this, do you? I also learned a new technique from the Internet. You only need to put a small handful of red yeast rice in the stew, and it will have such a color. How about it, am I very talented?" Points?" The cook happily explained.

Jiang Shan ate without saying a word, quickly finished his diet meal, stood up and patted Wang Chao on the shoulder, and left straight away, but his expression when he left seemed to hold back a smile, and also seemed to have some sympathy.
