Chapter 1051: A Strong Opponent
Yamada Shoichi made a gesture of resting, and naturally no one in the room would stay anymore. After closing the door, Fujiwara Saburo looked at the leaving figures of Ikeda Ikeno and Michiko Suzuki, with a complicated mood.

"Father, look at us"

Before Fujiwara Sukeka finished speaking, Fujiwara Saburo raised his hand to stop him. This was not the place to talk. He turned around and led the two of them away with a sullen expression.

As for what he didn't finish just now, Fujiwara Saburo himself also expected that Yamada Shoichi didn't really regard him as a confidant at all.

And those people who were trained in secret should be his core subordinates.

Haha, if you think about it, you should know that I have always been dealing with peripheral affairs. These seed players were trained by the Yamada family, so the treatment will naturally be different.

But some things were hidden too deeply from myself, and they were accidentally exposed today, which made me feel unhappy about being a pawn, and at the same time, I was a little angry in my heart.

It’s just that your cooking skills are better, what’s there to be proud of? The peripheral business is still done by us people. Without us, where would you be useful?
As Saburo Fujiwara expected, when Taro Ikeno and Michiko Suzuki entered the same room, their conversation indeed confirmed his guess.

"My lord accidentally leaked some important information just now. Fujiwara must have noticed it!"

Michiko Suzuki took out a bottle of sake, poured a glass from the porcelain cup on the table and handed it to Ikeda Taro, as if she wanted to explore his thoughts.

Nodding and giving a slight salute, Ikeno Taro took the glass of wine, sipped it coolly, then raised his head and drank it in one sip, then gently placed the glass on the table.

The smile on his face was very plain, but there was a trace of ridicule in his eyes: "You know it if you know it. It seems that the Lord's meaning was revealed to him deliberately, just to give him a good beating.

He has indeed been doing well outside in recent years, so his tail has been raised a bit, and it should be banged appropriately. "

It was obvious that Taro Ikeno didn't like Saburo Fujiwara at all, and the look of contempt on his face was undisguised, and Michiko Suzuki seemed to take it for granted.

After filling up the wine glass, Michiko Suzuki suddenly brought up another topic, which made Taro Ikeda's expression become a little more serious.

"Looking at your Majesty's intentions, it seems like this is deliberately setting a trap for them. I find it strange that when your Majesty went to China last time, he lost the cooking competition?

Afterwards, I did some research on the Chu Yunfeng who was competing with the superior. He had some accomplishments in Sichuan cuisine, but if he really wanted to compete with the superior, his cooking skills were still not up to par. "

These words seemed to be said inadvertently, but Ikeno Taro looked at Michiko Suzuki very seriously and saw that she responded to his gaze indifferently. It seemed that he just wanted to know some truth.

However, I can't judge whether this matter is true or not. I can only say that I have some guesses, which I can discuss with her.

After all, there were only two people among the eight people this time. Normally, everyone didn't have much time and opportunity to communicate. Yamada Shoichi would not let the people below him get too familiar with each other.

After thinking about it for a while, Taro Ikeno said in a deep voice: "Actually, I have also researched Chu Yunfeng. There is a lot of information about him on the Internet. He is indeed very talented in Sichuan cuisine.

At this point, it seems that our Kotaro Takahashi is still a little behind. "

Having said this, Ikeno Taro paused, picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it in one gulp, as if he was continuing to consider what he should say next.

Michiko Suzuki was not in a hurry and had a drink with him, then filled the glass again.

"Takahashi is usually very pretentious, but I saw that he seemed to be quite disdainful after watching Chu Yunfeng's video?"

Michiko Suzuki's words were quite inflammatory, which made Taro Ikeno laugh immediately: "That's his strong enemy, not ours!"

If Chu Yunfeng knew this, he would immediately understand that this man named Kotaro Takahashi should be a trained master of Sichuan cuisine, and he would also be his opponent.

The two looked at each other and smiled, obviously seeing the teasing in each other's eyes. Michiko Suzuki seemed to be very patient and continued to wait for Taro Ikeno to answer his questions.

After smiling, Taro Ikeno said with a more solemn expression: "The defeat in the last Lord's competition may have been half-truth. This is what I realized later."

These words seemed to have inspired Michiko Suzuki, but she still couldn't figure out any further information, so she opened her eyes wide with extreme curiosity and stared closely at her.

Ikeno Taro's lips curled up to the upper right corner, and he seemed to be very confident in the truth he guessed: "You must have seen the video of the game that day, right?

I have carefully reviewed it many times. What puzzles me the most is that Chu Yunfeng can also cook the dish of silver teeth that the master knows how to cook?
And the technique is even better than the master, which I didn't expect at all.

The reason why the master chose to compete with this dish was because he expected that Chu Yunfeng would not know how to cook it, but the final result was beyond his expectation.

Originally, the master's plan was to crush Chu Yunfeng directly, and then show some gentle tactics to see if he could be brought to our side.

After the failure in the first round, the master knew that the plan should have failed, so he deliberately lost the game in the second round! "

Speaking of this, Taro Ikeno's eyes became obviously serious, which also made Michiko Suzuki exclaim: "Did you lose on purpose?"

"Yes, he must have lost on purpose!" Ikeno Taro nodded heavily and clenched his fists, "With the Lord's true strength, how could his swordsmanship be as simple as what you and I saw?
If you have watched the video carefully, you will know that Chu Yunfeng's swordsmanship is at most comparable to that of you and me, so how could he possibly win the Lord?
Although the cooking skills displayed by the master are only slightly higher than others, do you think this is his true strength? "

Ikeno Taro's words were so shocking that Michiko Suzuki immediately covered her mouth with a look of disbelief. Then she gently put her hand down, and the wide-open mouth gradually closed.

After nodding thoughtfully, Michiko Suzuki suddenly realized: "So, the Lord changed his mind at that time and decided to use the trick to make Chu Yunfeng think that his strength was no more than this?
In this way, we can make them relax their vigilance, and then deliberately leak some false news about us to make the other party think that our strength is actually what they see on the surface?

Is that so?Ikeno-kun? "

After seeing Taro Ikeno nodding with joy, Michiko Suzuki also smiled knowingly, nodded and smiled as well.

It seemed that the look of admiration on Suzuki Michiko's face made him feel very happy. The disdain on the corner of Ikeno Taro's mouth was even more intense: "Do you think anyone in China can cook the dishes we secretly trained?"

She was disdainful, but Michiko Suzuki showed doubts: "But the Lord seems to have revealed this information. Aren't you afraid that the other side will be on guard?"

Be prepared?

Taro Ikeno laughed instantly: "With regard to the decline of China's catering industry in recent years, do you think their precautions are useful?

It’s not that I’m laughing at them. If Chu Yunfeng hadn’t created Sichuan cuisine, what about the other cuisines?Is there anyone who can help? "

With a flash of beautiful eyes, Michiko Suzuki picked up the wine glass on the table and made a gesture of inviting her, then drank it all gracefully, wiped the remaining wine on her lips, and smiled.

"That's right. As for the dishes we have learned, who of the younger generation in China can cook them? Even if there are some older people who can cook them, we can't let these seniors come out, right?"

As the wine continued to be poured into the cup, Ikeno Taro also laughed: "Haha, if they are really shameless to invite these old seniors out of the mountain, we won't need to take action.

Naturally, there will be people who will speak up for them. The Chinese catering industry can only rely on the older generation to support them. We don’t need to fight them, there will naturally be people who will join in the fun.

How long did it take us to learn these dishes? Don’t you know the hardship involved?

And it is estimated that no one in China will be able to cook the final dish, and it will be less than three months. Even if China knows about it, what can they do? "

After toasting again, Michiko Suzuki also laughed and said: "That's true, but I always feel that the Lord should have a trump card, and everything he does now should be just a smoke bomb."

Laughter continued to ring in the room, but I wonder if Chu Yunfeng and the others could have foreseen the crisis contained in it?

At this time, Chu Yunfeng was enjoying the night view with everyone. A group of people set off together. No one expected that everyone's information was actually in the hands of the other party.

And everyone happily followed President Hou for half an hour in the car. They thought he was taking everyone to have a big meal, but who would have expected that it turned out to be a small restaurant?

After getting out of the car, everyone was dumbfounded, only the two presidents were still laughing, as if they were satisfied with this place, which made people feel a little confused.

Chu Yunfeng raised his head and took a look. This noodle shop looked larger than the average shop, and there were many tables and chairs outside. The signboard read four words "Liu Ji Noodle Shop".

The word "Liu Ji" is relatively large, which seems to be a local characteristic, and the signboard looks like it is quite old.

This business looked very good. Looking inside, it seemed that everyone was full, and there were not many empty seats under the shed outside. President Hou quickly asked everyone to sit down.

Seeing everyone's confused expressions, President Hou smiled and said: "Don't worry, there will definitely be a big meal, I will take you to eat it after the game is over.

Don't underestimate this shop. It has been in business for more than 60 years and is now the third generation. This bamboo noodles are definitely inherited and the only one in the world! "

President Xiong also nodded heavily and said: "You're right, this is the only one in the world. It's not an exaggeration at all. Every time I have the opportunity to come to Hong Kong, I will come here to savor this taste."

Both presidents recommended it so strongly that everyone's interest was immediately aroused.

"Is it really so delicious? Wu Junjie, this bamboo noodles are also very common over there, right? Have you heard of this one?"

Beibei asked immediately, wanting to see if this store was really worthy of its name, but before Wu Junjie could answer, someone had already answered for him.

Song Shaochen smiled and said: "It is indeed delicious. I have eaten here once, but unfortunately I have never had the chance to come."

Wu Junjie also smiled and said: "I have only heard of the name of this family. It seems that their family has always followed ancient laws and traditions, which have remained unchanged for many years.

And the taste is quite extraordinary, even Chua Lam spoke highly of them! "

Cai Lan?

After talking about this person, everyone nodded thoughtfully. This foodie master is definitely an experientialist, and his comments are generally not problematic.

As soon as I sat down, someone came to greet me, so everyone started to order according to the menu, including wonton, shrimp roe noodles, wonton noodles, beef veggie noodles and so on.

Chu Yunfeng took the opportunity to wash his hands and entered the store. Through the window in the kitchen, he saw the man riding on the bamboo pole and pressing his face. The sweat on his head told everything.

It’s not easy to adhere to ancient methods and traditions. If this bamboo noodles were made by machine, they would definitely not have such a good texture and taste.

But at the same time, it also restricted the growth and strength, so Chu Yunfeng also gradually understood the decline and struggle of some century-old stores.

Either be eliminated by the market in order to maintain the traditional original taste, or change the technology in order to survive. No matter which decision you make, there is no choice!
Chu Yunfeng originally wanted to see how the noodles in this store were made, but they didn't seem to give him a chance. Just when he poked his head inside, he was warned.

The kitchen is an important place, and idlers are not allowed to enter!
Faced with this situation, Chu Yunfeng felt helpless, and Mu Qing happened to see him and pulled him out.

"Master Chu seems to have failed in facial recognition. Do you want to go back and think of a solution?"

Mu Qing teased her gently, but she was also thinking about whether there was any way to let him go in and see it.

Unexpectedly, Chu Yunfeng gave up: "I'm just curious, I can't get involved in everything I see, right?

I still know some ways to make this bamboo noodles, which is just flour and duck eggs. No drop of water is added in the whole process. The most important thing is actually the person who presses the noodles.

If you really want me to keep pressing noodles on the bamboo pole every day, then there is no need to do other things. "

Seeing that Chu Yunfeng was really not interested, Mu Qing was relieved, but he was right. Unless it was done occasionally, it would be really difficult to continue doing such "heavy" physical work. It suits him.

I thought he wanted to learn how to go back and make it in the store, but it seems he was overthinking it!

But I have to say that the taste of this noodle shop is indeed good. One portion was not enough for those with big appetites, so I ordered another portion and was very happy.

When everyone had almost finished eating, President Hou picked up the water glass on the table and said: "The competition will start tomorrow. I wish our contestants immediate success!

cheers! "

Everyone started working happily, and after eating, they had free time, but President Hou asked everyone not to play too late.

Chu Yunfeng originally wanted to accompany Mu Qing to go shopping, but unexpectedly, he was pulled back to the hotel by the two presidents, who said they had something to tell him.

Listening to the president, it seems that there are two strong opponents among the teams coming to compete this time. We can't underestimate them.
