Chapter 1014 Late Night Invitation

Afterwards, Wan Lao's father became very frightened when he thought of this incident. He almost lost his family, so he found an opportunity and moved his family out of the capital.

So Chu Yunfeng continued to ask curiously: "How about Wan Lao's studies later? When did he start to become a chef?"

Finally getting to the point, President Hou did not offend him and said directly: "Sighing at the darkness of officialdom in the Republic of China, Wan Lao's father gave up on letting him become an official, but he never let him give up on his studies.

But in his spare time, he slowly began to teach Wan Lao how to cook, not wanting him to give up such a talent in vain.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, everything was in ruins, so Wan Lao began to use the knowledge he had learned to serve the motherland. Until the 90s, the family happened to talk about today's catering at a gathering, and they all sighed.

Today's catering industry is in full bloom, but it lacks some of the old flavor, so everyone started discussing opening a restaurant, which made Wan Lao also very interested.

But now that I am older and less energetic, I have no choice but to open a restaurant as big as before, and the capital is not suitable for such a large amount of land.

So everyone unanimously decided to open a private restaurant. In this way, both the business strategy and the combination of dishes can be well balanced. Ever since, this palace cuisine has reappeared. "

President Hou's words made Chu Yunfeng finally understand that Wan Lao's life was indeed quite legendary, and the inheritance of his cooking skills was indeed a bit unusual.

"No wonder you said that Wan Lao's cooking skills are not among the eight major cuisines. It turns out that is the reason. This is equivalent to the most direct inheritance of palace cuisine!

Although Shandong cuisine and Lijia cuisine have some inheritance from palace cuisine, they are not pure. Wanlao's cuisine is the continuation of the most typical palace cuisine, so what do you mean? "

Chu Yunfeng began to feel ecstatic in his heart. These eight major cuisines indeed have their own characteristics, but their forms have basically been fixed over the years.

As the most shining pearl a hundred years ago, palace cuisine has a lot of styles worth learning and referencing, which can definitely inspire the integration and innovation of cooking skills.

President Hou smiled and nodded and said: "You are right, Mr. Li and Mr. Wan are both geniuses, so they cherish each other because they both have one thing in common, that is, they do not accept apprentices!"

what?
Chu Yunfeng stared at President Hou with a very puzzled look. What is this? They both have the same temper, so how can this cooking skill be passed down?
Seeing that Chu Yunfeng seemed a little anxious, President Hou naturally knew what Chu Yunfeng was up to, so he said calmly: "Wan Lao has this temper, it's not enough if you don't accept it.

I know what you are thinking. Although Wan Lao does not teach, his uncle and uncle and others have passed down the cooking skills, but compared to him, they are much inferior.

Similarly, his persistence is the same as Mr. Li. He secretly learned the cooking skills from the beginning. Although he was taught by his father later, he made a mistake at the beginning, so he was unwilling to violate the rules of the older generation. "

After talking about this place, Chu Yunfeng began to understand Mr. Li's intention of letting him act according to the situation, so he nodded and smiled with a curved smile.

"Then when should we go see Wan Lao tomorrow?"

After making a plan, Chu Yunfeng couldn't wait and wanted to know what he could learn from Wan Lao.

Seeing Chu Yunfeng's evil smile, President Hou felt helpless: "The sooner, the better. We only have one day tomorrow. Let's go meet him at seven in the morning!"

meet?

After seven?
Chu Yunfeng wondered if it was a little too early?
The plane lands tonight at three o'clock in the morning, and it's probably already four o'clock when we get to the hotel. How much time do we have to sleep?
And Wanlao doesn’t even sleep in in the morning?

It seems that President Waiting did not go directly to his home, but went to the street to meet him. What is this situation?

Seeing Chu Yunfeng's slightly depressed expression, President Hou was naturally unhappy: "Don't mutter, you kid, I don't say anything at my age, and you, a young boy, still care about the little sleep time ?

Seeing as you have so much energy, I guess you won't have any problems even if you don't sleep for a whole night. But I'm the one who suffers! "

Faced with Chairman Hou's complaints, Chu Yunfeng quickly flattered him: "You are in charge of national defense, so even if you don't sleep for a week, there will be no problem!"

"roll!"

President Hou, who was "fooled" by Chu Yunfeng, naturally would not give him a good look. After "warning" him, he began to close his eyes and rest.

Chu Yunfeng also knew that President Hou had completed his "mission" and that he should give him a good rest. Otherwise, he would take him to see Wan Lao tomorrow with two dark circles under his eyes. What if he got lost?
Time is a bit tight!
I originally planned to visit my grandpa and grandma early in the morning, but it seems I have to find time to go there later.

With nothing to do at this time, Chu Yunfeng began to enter the system space. It was time to check his gains during this period, and by the way, learn the dishes taught by Mr. Li today!
First, he received the reward for the task of rescuing Han Bingbing. This reward was not low. The experience value alone was 80 points, and the learning time was a full [-] days. Chu Yunfeng said it was a big deal.

But this task is also very difficult. Looking back now, I find it quite tricky. I had to go all out to barely complete this task.

After receiving the reward, Chu Yunfeng instantly felt that he had become a wealthy landowner. His experience points had accumulated to 13503 points, and he had studied for 90 days, 9 hours and 44 minutes.

Now my chef level is technician, and each skill to upgrade to senior technician requires 5000 million experience points, which means that I can now upgrade two skills.

Without saying a word, Chu Yunfeng directly upgraded his knife skills and pastries first. The knife skills were the first choice for upgrading, while the noodles were to cope with this Hong Kong competition.

Let’s wait a little longer for the remaining four chef skills. There are still a lot of things that need to be dealt with in the future, and this task will definitely not stop.

When all the skills are fully upgraded, he will be a veritable senior technician, which is almost the same as the master chefs in the kitchen for state banquets.

However, Chu Yunfeng still has some doubts. Will he be able to upgrade after becoming a senior technician?

After all, people like Mr. Li have long surpassed the level of senior technicians, but there is no relevant professional level to standardize it, so the chef level cannot be used to evaluate his chef level.

The same is true of Mr. Ji and Mr. Wang who are the chefs of the state banquet. They are much stronger than many master chefs in terms of strength.

Now that my swordsmanship has been upgraded to a senior technician, if I use the special function of the meteor knife again and my swordsmanship skills are upgraded to another level, what will it be like?

However, this thing has limitations. There is a one-month cooling time after one use, and it only lasts for 30 minutes. However, it also has a 20% speed bonus effect. This game will be a good show.

If there was a knife skills competition, would I blind many people?
This time, Mr. Li was quite impressive. He taught himself six dishes at once, one of which was a dim sum dish. Especially this dim sum, coupled with the presentation effect, was enough to amaze everyone.

This time, Fengwei Cake must make its debut in the competition, and if the other five dishes include fairy duck, camphor tea duck, sweet and sour chrysanthemum fish, fish-flavored pinecone fish and peony fish fillet, then you can follow the fate Bar!
The main issue is time, especially for the production of camphor tea duck. It is estimated that the site does not have the conditions, and the time may not allow it.

This is one of the biggest disadvantages of traditional Sichuan cuisine, and it is also its advantage, that is, it takes too much time and it is very disadvantageous in the competition.

But Chu Yunfeng is not afraid, he sees the tricks, and it's not like he only knows these few dishes.

Of these six dishes, except for the sweet and sour chrysanthemum fish and the fish-flavored pine cone fish, which are four-star dishes, the other four dishes are all five-star dishes, so Chu Yunfeng paid the learning experience points without saying anything. .

两个40万，四个50万，总共交纳了280万的经验值，最后花费了5天2小时18分的时间学会了这六道菜品。

So far, Chu Yunfeng has mastered a total of 27 traditional Sichuan dishes. Except for one braised bear paw that cannot be made, the other 26 dishes are all very exquisite.

After fully mastering these six dishes, Chu Yunfeng came out of the system space with great satisfaction, then looked at the dark clouds outside the window, and then closed his eyes and began to rest.

After a three-hour flight, when the plane landed, President Hou groaned helplessly. This was the time when he usually fell asleep, and when he woke up, he felt very tired.

But when he turned on the airplane mode of his phone, he immediately woke up.

It was just because of a text message, and after he handed the text message to Chu Yunfeng, Chu Yunfeng was not calm anymore!

"The time and place haven't been mentioned. I'll only be in the capital for four days. If this is really going to happen, then I need to prepare the ingredients at least tomorrow, right?"

The reason why Chu Yunfeng was not calm was also very simple, that is, the leader asked him to make the Eighteen Arhats Golden Soup Buddha Jump Over the Wall, but the time had not yet been announced, which made him very annoyed.

If you can make it in the first two days, it will be no problem. If you only let yourself do it on the third day, it will be too late to participate in the competition!

You can't just leave the cooking here and go to Hong Kong to participate in the competition. This is against discipline. After all, I am now an official chef in the back kitchen of the state banquet, and I have to focus on my mission.

However, President Hou was not in such a hurry. After taking off his luggage, he patted Chu Yunfeng on the shoulder: "Calm down, I see you are anxious. The arrival time of the foreign guests must not have been determined yet.

It can be confirmed by tomorrow afternoon at most. The boss knows about your going to Hong Kong to compete. I have already reported this matter.

But no matter which time is determined, you only have time to go to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients in the evening, so you must be prepared to fight a protracted battle in the past few days. You may not even have the chance to go home. "

If it's really like what President Hou said, he seems to be really spinning his wheels. I can only see if there is a chance to go home in the next few nights.

You can go home after leaving the airport now, but it's already early in the morning, and your grandpa and grandma will definitely be woken up when you get back, so Chu Yunfeng doesn't want to disturb their dreams at this time.

After following President Hou off the plane, he took out his mobile phone to cancel flight mode and sent Mu Qing a safe text message.

Before he could make any move, text messages and missed calls came one after another. It turned out to be Peng Yue calling him, and he called five times in succession. The last one was 10 minutes ago?
What does this guy have to do with him?

And it's so late. Is he going to be a night owl?
Wait, it seems that this time I went to Hong Kong to participate in the Global MasterChef Competition, their hotel was also there. Is it because of this?

Chu Yunfeng first sent a text message to Mu Qing, and then he was about to call Peng Yue back, but he didn't expect that he called right away!
"I'll go, brother, you've finally turned on your phone. Have you gotten off the plane? I'll be right outside the airport and pick you up somewhere!"

At three o'clock in the morning, Peng Yue was still very excited. This made Chu Yunfeng have to wonder if this guy had taken stimulants. Didn't he stay up all night?
"No, it's already early in the morning. Is there anything we can't talk about tomorrow?
By the way, how did you know that I came to the capital?
Also, where are you taking me? "

Chu Yunfeng asked three times in a row, but Peng Yue did not answer him immediately. Instead, he just said "Let's meet and chat" and hung up the phone.

This guy is so mysterious that he doesn't know what he is doing?

Chu Yunfeng shook his head, wondering if it was possible to go to the bar to drink at such a late hour?

President Hou seemed to have heard the invitation and asked: "Who is coming so late?"

"Peng Yue, this guy didn't know where he knew I came to the capital, and he is now outside the airport. He said he wanted to take me to a place?"

Chu Yunfeng was very puzzled and told President Hou that he was planning to go back to the hotel to have a good rest. After regaining his energy, he would go to Wan Lao to "act by ear" tomorrow. How could he have time to fool around with Peng Yue?
However, President Hou's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he understood something, and immediately said with a mysterious smile: "Then you go with him, young man, you can't be like a middle-aged man like me, you have to be energetic, right?
This time is our bedtime, and for you young people, isn’t it just the beginning of nightlife? "

Hmm~?

Huh~?

There is a problem, there is definitely a problem!

This shows that President Hou must know Peng Yue's purpose, otherwise he would not be so supportive of him going with him.

After all, going to see Wan Lao tomorrow is very important. If I accidentally arrive late or fail to go, it will be great fun.

So facing President Hou who encouraged him to go, Chu Yunfeng immediately asked with a scrutinizing gaze: "You know where he wants to take me, right? Tell me quickly?"

However, President Hou immediately waved his hand and denied it: "How do I know where he wants to take you?

Don't you yourself not understand why you came to Beijing?So what will Peng Yue take you to do? "

Seeing that Chu Yunfeng hadn't reacted yet, President Hou couldn't help but wake him up. Sure enough, Chu Yunfeng raised his hand and patted his forehead: "I'll go, I know what's going on. son"
