gourmet food

Chapter 1084: See through in advance
Why did you sit down?

All the chefs present were busy and seemed to be preparing to process the ingredients as soon as possible and then prepare the dishes as soon as possible.

But what about Chu Yunfeng?

Not only were there no ingredients in front of his kitchen counter, but he himself didn't seem to be cooking. Instead, he moved a chair and sat down directly.

What on earth is this going to do?
Are you here to visit this manor?

Old Butler Delong frowned deeply, but he did not interfere with Chu Yunfeng's actions. Instead, he stared at Sims with a strong sense of evil.

Sims was naturally really panicked at this time. At first, he did not confirm further out of trust in Chu Yunfeng. At least half of his mind thought that Chu Yunfeng was joking.

But this situation made him really believe that Chu Yunfeng really didn't need any food supplies, and the contents of the cloth bag were his food supplies today.

But with such a small bottle, what ingredients can be packed in it?

And what role can such a little thing play?

Isn't this a joke?
Especially the deep look in the eyes of old housekeeper Delong made Sims's back feel cold, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, forcing him to bite the bullet and take action.

"Mr. Chu, should we start cooking?" Sims knew that his urging was impolite, but the scene was so strange that he had to ask.

Chu Yunfeng waved his hands calmly and said: "Don't worry, we are the last one. The later we do it, the better the effect will be."

The later the better?

Sims was not so confident at this time. He was afraid that if it was really too late, it would be over. If the Duke misunderstood that he had brought someone to deceive him, wouldn't it mean that he would be sentenced to death on the spot?
Especially when the execution was carried out in front of the other responsible persons, thinking about such a scene makes people shudder. Could it be that Chu Yunfeng did it on purpose?
Sims couldn't care much anymore, especially when the other people in charge looked over here, their faces were full of expressions of gloating.

The sarcasm on that face could not be concealed, and it seemed that everyone was happy to see Sims being unlucky.

"Mr. Chu, is it a matter of commission? Can we discuss it again?"

Although Chu Yunfeng didn't mention this before, he just asked Sims to give it to him, but Sims couldn't pretend to be confused. He had already stated that the price would be twice as high as the normal price.

The highest price paid to the chef before was 20 euros. Although it was only doubled, Sims was prepared to pay 50 euros.

But with Chu Yunfeng's current condition, Sims didn't even want to think about it. As long as Chu Yunfeng could take action immediately, he would have no problem paying 100 million.

Or even 200 million or 300 million?
However, Chu Yunfeng still looked calm, and still waved his hands and said: "It's not a matter of money, it's a matter of time. If the time is not available, the effect of making it now will be greatly reduced!"

Chu Yunfeng was telling the truth. It is best to soak the orange peel freshly, and the magical scene after soaking in boiling water must be witnessed by the Duke.

If you soak it at this time, it will cool down in a while, and the effect will naturally be much worse, but Sims doesn't know, he is extremely anxious, and his forehead is covered with large beads of sweat.

Naturally, this explanation would not make him feel relaxed, so he quickly asked Chu Yunfeng: "Then do you have any other conditions? We can discuss them.

By the way, can you let me take a look at the ingredients in that bag? "

Chu Yunfeng's expression did not seem to be fake. Being able to be so calm showed that he was confident and had no intention of playing tricks. This made Sims even more confused.

But I still have to say this clearly. What else would Chu Yunfeng ask for?

However, the most important point is that I can take a look at the ingredients in this bag, which can make me feel a little more at ease.

But Chu Yunfeng's answer disappointed him, and he was even more panicked: "I don't have any conditions?
Didn't we already have an agreement when we came here?

Are you asking me this now because you are worried about me?

Am I the kind of person who waits for the price and raises the price? "

The series of rhetorical questions made Sims' heart almost break. If he continued to ask questions, he would obviously fall out on the spot, so Sims was extremely conflicted.

Turn your face?

If he died faster and waited for the opportunity mentioned by Chu Yunfeng, he would still have a glimmer of hope. Unable to choose, Sims had no choice but to choose the latter.

After making a decision, Sims immediately responded bitterly: "No, no, Mr. Chu, please don't get me wrong, I really believe in your cooking skills and character.

By the way, do you need to bring the boiling water and kettle over immediately? "

In desperation, Sims thought of attacking from the side. After all, these things were proposed by Chu Yunfeng before. If they were sent over, maybe he would be able to see some clues?
This time Chu Yunfeng did not refuse, but nodded and said: "I don't need boiling water for now, you can prepare a stove to boil water on the spot later, I will tell you the time.

You can take the kettle and cup over now. Remember, they must be glass, and they must be transparent so you can see clearly inside. Do you understand? "

Chu Yunfeng arranged it very carefully, and Sims understood it clearly, but his heart was still hanging, and he wanted to scream, "Brother, stop playing with me."
Seeing that Chu Yunfeng had reached this point, Sims could only think that a dead horse should be treated as a living horse, so he walked straight over under the hot gaze of old housekeeper Delong.

Then he told the old butler everything Chu Yunfeng needed. During the process, Sims nervously looked at the old butler's expression, not missing the slightest detail.

But unfortunately, he couldn't see any mental activity. The old housekeeper's expression didn't change at all. He just nodded after thinking for two seconds.

Then he directly ordered the people around him to get the things, and then ignored Sims and looked directly at Chu Yunfeng.

In his deep gaze, he could only see a very steady young man sitting there, motionless, looking towards the middle of the hall, not knowing what he was thinking.

It's so strange. This young man's behavior is unbelievable and completely inconsistent with his reputation and cooking skills. Could it be that he is really here to cause trouble?

Such thoughts were quickly ruled out. The old housekeeper had conducted an investigation on all the chefs who came, and Chu Yunfeng was no exception.

The results of this investigation made me have great expectations for Chu Yunfeng, even the Duke.

There is only one reason, and that is that he once cured Orlando's daughter, Belle!

In fact, Orlando knew about this when he came to exchange the antiques. Chu Yunfeng's name was known to him and the Duke for the first time.

It is indeed easy for a chef to be so miraculous and famous.

However, out of a conservative mentality, the Duke also adopted a dubious attitude and did not invite Chu Yunfeng to come immediately.

However, after Chu Yunfeng became famous in Hong Kong, his status was enough for the Duke to send an invitation, so Sims contacted Chu Yunfeng immediately and the Duke was very satisfied.

But the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment seems to be. Today's matter is likely to be unexpected, so Old Butler Delong had to report the matter to Duke Dalton immediately.

After continuing to give instructions at the scene, old housekeeper Delong immediately turned around and walked away in a hurry. When he was about to go out, he turned and glanced at Chu Yunfeng.

It was puzzling to find that he was still unmoved, sitting on his chair without moving.

As for the so-called cloth bag containing ingredients on the table, in my opinion, it should be a prop, probably used to perfuse the Duke.

After coming out of the dining hall, the old butler walked up a spiral staircase in a clumsy manner. Every brick here looked black and swarthy, as if telling its long history.

I have to say that this ladder is quite long. After climbing for about 2 minutes, the old housekeeper seemed to be a little tired, so he stopped to catch his breath and rest for a while.

Within 3 minutes of resting on the spot, the old housekeeper's entire brain was trying to determine Chu Yunfeng's purpose, but he couldn't figure it out after much thought!

According to his resume, he should be regarded as a legendary chef. First, he cured Bell's disease and was able to gain the friendship of Princess Silena.

This can be regarded as the top chef, but if he really wants to act perfunctory with the Duke, this will undoubtedly be a heavy blow to his reputation.

At least here in Europe, he will never be able to succeed in the future, and some international competitions are basically insulated for him.

He shouldn't be so unwise, right?

But what are the special reasons behind such a move?
Ah~!

Now that I am old, not only is it difficult to climb stairs, it is also difficult to think about problems!

After old housekeeper Delong sighed helplessly, he continued to climb up slowly, stepping hard with every step.

As for why there is no elevator, that thing doesn’t fit in the castle, and it directly lowers the quality, so I can only live with it!
Dragging his old body, Old Butler Delong finally climbed to the top of the castle. After breathing heavily for a while, he walked towards the largest room.

As soon as you walk in, you will find that this room has the best view in the entire castle. It not only overlooks the entire manor, but also has an excellent view. The mountains in the distance will also give people a pleasing feeling.

Our protagonist, the Duke, is sitting on an extremely luxurious chair, and there are many paintings and antiques placed on the table in front of him.

There is not a single gray hair in this person's hair. I don't know if it was dye or a wig. In short, the whole person looks quite energetic.

He also held a magnifying glass very comfortably and carefully examined the gold coin in his hand, as if he was verifying its authenticity.

Seeing that the Duke was so temperamental, the old butler didn't bother him, but walked over directly and stood beside him quietly.

Our Lord Duke seems to be very addicted. The various antiques placed on the table seem to have a strong attraction to him, and he never gets tired of them no matter how much he looks at them.

Especially when appreciating an oil painting, he seemed very serious and looked at it with a magnifying glass for more than 20 minutes without even blinking.

At first, he had a very excited look on his face, but after he finished checking, he not only frowned deeply, but also let out a sigh of extreme regret.

"Alas~! This is an imitation, not an authentic one. Although Shriver was intentional, he could not avoid being deceived. The other party also spent a lot of effort in making the fake.

Look, this paper is an antique from more than 100 years ago, and it cost a lot of money to imitate Van Gogh's paintings!

By the way, there are also these pigments. Look, look, their configuration alone costs a huge amount of money. It’s no wonder Shriver was fooled. The experts he hired also took a look!

This guy Shriver has good intentions, but how many imitations have he bought?

Last time, I bought five copies at a time, but only one was authentic, so I haven't learned my lesson yet? "

Duke Dalton sighed with regret, and then the old housekeeper Delong answered: "When it comes to appraising the paintings of Van Gogh and Picasso, the only top expert in the world is none other than the Duke!"

The old butler's words made the Duke realize that he was back, but he quite agreed with what he said. After nodding, he asked: "Are the chefs here? Can they make the dishes I want to taste?

Oh~!By the way, that magical Chinese chef named Chu Yunfeng, what dish did he make today? "

Old Butler Delong came to talk about this matter, so he immediately answered with a confused look: "He didn't make any movements at the moment, and he was sitting on the chair without moving.

And he didn't ask for any ingredients, he just asked for a glass teapot and teacup, as well as utensils that he didn't know when he would need to boil water.

Sims asked him, and he responded that the ingredients for the dish he made this time were brought by himself and were placed in a cloth bag that looked like a bottle.

As for what’s inside the bottle, we don’t know yet! "

The old butler explained the matter clearly in a few words, and then began to observe the Duke's reaction, and then immediately saw his brows furrowed deeply.

Mmm~!

It was the same as before in the hall, and he was also surprised by Chu Yunfeng's abnormal behavior.

But the Duke soon laughed: "Haha, it seems that our magical chef is waiting for a price!
Orlando, Orlando, it seems that he was really angry after rejecting him last time, and our magic chef is well prepared! "

I don't know what he thought of, but the Duke's words made Old Butler Delon a little unresponsive for a while, but when Orlando was mentioned, he seemed to have figured it out.

Then the old housekeeper Delong immediately said: "So this time your hidden disease should have a chance to be cured?
That's really great. If it can really be cured, then Sims will have made a contribution this time! "

There seemed to be some differences between what the old butler Delong thought. The Duke seemed to have a very high IQ. Not only could he see through Chu Yunfeng's thoughts at a glance, but he also made precise guesses about what would happen next.

"Cure? It should be no problem, but the other party has now figured out my shortcomings, and his appetite seems to be quite big?
Hehe~!

The idea hit me. It seems that the antiques Orlando gave him last time made him a little excited. Is it so easy for people to miss my Dalton's things?

Now that everyone is here, let's challenge him to see if his identification of antiques will be as amazing as his cooking skills? "

Seeing that the Duke is so confident, the old butler Delong also laughed, knowing that Chu Yunfeng was destined to be empty this time.

"Let's put this replica in the basement. Just put it in the box that Shriver sent last time. I want to see if the box can be filled with it in the end.
That fool!

Just put the rest of the genuine products into the cave, and tell me when you're done. Let's go to the living room to see what kind of surprise the magical chef will give me. "

If Chu Yunfeng were here, he would definitely know that the difficulty this time seems to have exceeded his expectations.
