Chapter 1266 Earth-shattering proposal

What no one knew was that just after Mr. Li took his things from home and went out, he called Chu Yunfeng.

At this time, Chu Yunfeng was still having breakfast with Mu Qing. He was a little surprised to see Mr. Li's phone call. Beier and the others were chattering beside them and commenting on the food on the table. Chu Yunfeng apologized and walked out of the restaurant.

"Mr. Li, have you had breakfast?"

Mr. Li was also a little happy after drinking last night. Chu Yunfeng couldn't guess when he would get up, so he could only ask about the status of breakfast.

Unexpectedly, a burst of hearty laughter came over the phone: "Haha, I got up after six o'clock, then checked out and went home!"

uh~?

Chu Yunfeng was slightly stunned. He could already imagine how anxious President Hou must be in the hotel right now, but then he immediately thought that the purpose of Mr. Li's call was definitely not that simple.

It stands to reason that even if Mr. Li doesn't want to get involved in the matter of the master chefs from the seven major cuisines coming to Rongcheng, as a landlord, it is still necessary to meet each other.

But Mr. Li was acting out of common sense, so naturally Chu Yunfeng immediately asked tentatively: "So you have come out of the house now, right? Are you planning to go back to the hotel?"

Seeing that Chu Yunfeng reacted so quickly, Mr. Li laughed: "You little fox, you have guessed it. I can roughly guess what happened when they came here.

It must have something to do with the restoration of the dishes, but running over in such a hurry means that something very special and urgent must have happened.

This is a huge opportunity for you. If you don't seize this opportunity, God will not let you go.

Just wait, pie will fall from the sky, and we must fight for some things that should be fought for, but how much you can gain in the end depends on you. "

Mr. Li's words made Chu Yunfeng's eyes turn red instantly. Both the words and the words were full of concern for him, and it was obvious that Mr. Li was going to do something big this time?

And it's all for myself, so how can I not be moved by this?
"Mr. Li, what are you doing?"

Chu Yunfeng was a little choked up and didn't know what to say. People said that Mr. Li had a weird temper and was not close to others, but after getting to know him more, he realized that this old man was just a soft-spoken man with a soft heart. Lord.

"Haha, you kid has learned to be sentimental, haven't you? You've spent the past two days peacefully taking wedding photos over there. I like this girl Mu Qing very much. You can't let her down.

It's such a big thing like getting married, and taking wedding photos has never pushed you. It's also my fault that I forgot about this and kept you busy training, so you can't let it slip.

As for this "pie", I brought some internal information to fool them first. Doesn't this kind of thing exist in the other seven major cuisines?

When it's time to go to the capital, let's see if they will explain everything. You just have to study hard. Don't miss any of the quintessence dishes of these seven major cuisines. Learn them all. .

If you can't learn a dish well or can't learn it, see how I deal with you. "

The last sentence Mr. Li said was so serious that it didn't sound like he was joking at all. However, Chu Yunfeng was so moved that he really didn't know what to say.

It's been so long, doesn't Mr. Li know about Chu Yunfeng's "special" ability?

How can it be so difficult to learn a dish, so these "big meals" are all carefully arranged for Chu Yunfeng, and they are super delicious meals.

It is the only one in the world, and it covers the seven major cuisines in China except Sichuan cuisine. If it is successful, it will be an undefended dish library for Chu Yunfeng, and he can learn how he wants.

"I understand, don't worry, if there is any mistake, you can punish me as you like."

Although there is no name of master and apprentice, the fact that he is master and apprentice is unquestionable. Chu Yunfeng has always viewed him this way, so he has an inexplicable feeling of closeness to Mr. Li.

Hearing Chu Yunfeng's "silly" words on the phone, Mr. Li laughed and then hung up the phone.

Whoo~!

Good guy, including the Manchu and Han banquet at Wan Lao, plus the essence of these seven major cuisines, how many of the most essential dishes in China will I learn now?

Thinking about it was extremely exciting. Chu Yunfeng felt his adrenaline surge at this moment. His whole body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and his heartbeat speed at least doubled.

And when Mr. Li showed up at the hotel and was surrounded by President Hou and President Xiong into the conference room, he couldn't help but snorted in his heart when he saw the empty hall.

"It must be Old Man Ji and Old Man Liu who are behind this. They want to play hard to get for me. Do you really think I'm a three-year-old kid?"

It stands to reason that Mr. Ji and the others were so anxious to come here last night, and now they should be waiting in the conference room a little eagerly, but no one arrived, so it was obviously a scam.

It's useless to yourself.

Mr. Li didn't even bother to sit down, he just shook his head and said: "Since they haven't arrived yet, let's forget it. We'll get together with them next time. I'll leave first if I have anything else to do. You two follow Let them explain."

The "naughty" Mr. Li instantly petrified President Hou and President Xiong. Is this old kid really hard to talk to?

How could he just let him go?

The president Hou immediately stopped Mr. Li, and quickly explained: "When you are about to arrive at the hotel, I have already called Mr. Ji and the others, and I will be here soon."

"Hehe, I didn't see anyone. They're not in a hurry to meet. Why should I be in a hurry? I'll come back when I'm done. Let them wait a while!"

???

It was really depressing to see that Mr. Li was about to leave, and the two presidents either stopped him or refused to stop him.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Mr. Li walked to the door, he heard a scolding voice: "Haha, Mr. Li, it's been so many years, do you still have the same temper?

What's the matter, don't you want to see this old friend coming to visit? "

Immediately afterwards, another hearty laughter came: "Old Man Li, Old Man Li, you cheated me out of drinking wine and said you would pay it back to me later. It has been decades and I still haven't seen it. Come on, you’re a little too unkind, aren’t you?”

???

President Hou and President Xiong became even more petrified. Is this the rhythm of fighting each other as soon as they meet?
And I accidentally heard a secret: Mr. Li still has unpaid wine debt?

What's happening here?
The speakers were Mr. Ji and Mr. Liu. When these two people appeared at the door of the conference room, they immediately saw Mr. Li showing a bright smile. He went up and gave them a big hug. .

"Haha, old man Ji, your procrastination will not change after decades. You are still procrastinating in doing things. Could it be that you are getting older and your legs and feet are more inconvenient?

Hahaha, who am I asking? After a long time, it turned out to be you, Old Man Liu?
When did I lie to you about drinking?It's obvious that you insisted on asking me to drink with you, saying that you were heartbroken and wanted to find someone to accompany you. But in the end, you couldn't drink as much as I did. You're still not convinced when you're drunk?
What's the matter, are you still thinking about drinking together again? "

hiss~!

President Hou and President Xiong were shocked. They never expected that these old men would meet in such a scene. Is this a youth complaint conference?
I thought that these old men would start pinching each other directly, but I didn't expect that Mr. Liu didn't care at all and laughed loudly: "You still have the nerve to say it, I haven't settled the score with you for so many years.

You weren't drinking with me, you were just making me drink, one cup after another, and I was drunk after a while. You were kind enough, and you slowly drank to your heart's content by yourself. Tell me how you feel about it. ? "

These old guys back then were all people with stories to tell. Mr. Li laughed non-stop, shook hands and said hello to everyone.

As an older catering figure, these people have naturally met each other, but the degree of familiarity between the two parties is different. Mr. Li has a deeper friendship with Mr. Ji and Mr. Liu.

As for Wang Zhiqiang, he is relatively familiar with them, but his friendship with Zhang Songnian, Zhou Shuyi and Lotte Jiao is not very deep, but he has met them a few times before.

Everyone sat down one after another and naturally started chatting. The peanut and melon seed shells began to pile up on the table. Mr. Li happily picked up a banana and ate it.

Everyone chatted about the past for a while. Seeing Mr. Liu winking at him frequently, he knew that he was urging him.

It was not appropriate for any of them to start this matter. They pushed President Xiong, who was still happily eating melon seeds next to him, with his elbow. President Hou suddenly coughed.

After diverting everyone's attention, President Hou slowly told Mr. Li what happened last night.

Mr. Li had no expression on his face the whole time. In fact, he was already happy in his heart. He never expected that he would encounter such an opportunity. It seemed that he didn’t even need to put in much effort. Chu Yunfeng had such a good chance. nice.

Since it is necessary to be prepared, each family should contribute to the restoration of this dish. Then if others have additional requirements, I will make more requests.

Just as the president was asking Mr. Li for his opinion, there was sudden movement at the door of the conference room. Many people frowned. Everyone guessed that it was their apprentice who had arrived.

We can't let them cause trouble now, they are talking about something.

But what they didn't expect was that when there was a knock on the door and the door opened, everyone suddenly felt very surprised.

In addition to Wan Lao, there were also Master Lin and two other middle-aged men. The appearance of these four people made many people in the conference room uneasy.

"Lao Wan? We are talking about something right now. Don't come and cause trouble!"

"Xiao Lin, you and your two senior brothers wait for us for a while, and we can talk about things later!"

The seven major cuisine tycoons present all maintained the same opinion. Although they didn't know what the purpose of these people's sudden appearance was, they couldn't be allowed to interrupt the progress of the conversation now.

It's just the beginning here. Old Man Li hasn't expressed his position yet. Everyone is waiting anxiously.

President Hou felt a little embarrassed. There was a problem with inviting people in, and it would also be a bad idea not to be invited. He didn't know what to do for a while.

But what was surprising was that Mr. Li suddenly became enthusiastic. He stood up and said hello to Mr. Wan: "Old man Wan, come on, come on, sit next to me. I just have something to discuss with you. Woolen cloth!

Xiao Lin, you and your senior brother should come in too. Your master was like a brother to me back then. If anything happens, come in and talk about it! "

???

The master chefs of the seven major cuisines were all confused by Mr. Li's move. At this moment, everyone is discussing the final battle. This matter is still in a confidential stage. You call in irrelevant people. do what?
President Hou hesitated and wanted to stop Mr. Li's actions, but finally thought about it and decided to wait and see what the old man's plan was.

If there is a risk of leaking secrets, then just stop it immediately and take a look first, take a look first!

Wan Lao was also a little surprised by Mr. Li's enthusiasm. He also met Master Lin and heard that people from the eight major cuisines were having a meeting here, so he came over curiously to take a look.

Master Lin came to see Mr. Li. When he went to Mr. Li's room in the morning, he learned that he had gone home. Then he went with his two senior brothers and learned that Mr. Li had returned to the hotel.

After all this tossing, I finally caught up to the conference room, but I was surprised when I saw the battle in the conference room.

But since Mr. Li said so, he stepped forward to greet Mr. Li, and then under the introduction of President Hou, he greeted and got to know the others.

They were all mixed in the capital, and Mr. Wan and Mr. Lin were very familiar with Mr. Ji and Mr. Liu. Many of the other masters met for the first time, so they couldn't warm up for a while.

But Mr. Li seemed very excited at this time. He did not respond to the previous inquiries from President Hou and others about his opinions, but turned the topic to Master Lin.

"Xiao Lin, by the way, there are also Xiao Fang and Xiao Yan. What do you want from me?"

After leaving everyone aside, Mr. Li began to ask Master Lin and his two senior brothers Fang Dazhong and Yan Xuewen. At this moment, the three of them were speechless and didn't know what to say. .

The original purpose of coming to Mr. Li was actually very simple, just to restore the old Sichuan cuisine, but it was a bit difficult to talk about it in front of so many people.

After all, this should be regarded as a private communication. Master Lin and the others did not want to expose this kind of thing to everyone.

"Mr. Li, here we are, actually..."

It was indeed a bit hard to say, which made Master Lin hesitate for a moment, but Mr. Li immediately nodded heavily.

"I understand, are you here for those old Sichuan dishes last night?"

Although they didn't know what Mr. Li meant by what he said and his attitude, Master Lin and the two senior brothers all nodded.

This also made the other onlookers a little confused. It seems that many people are really thinking about the restoration of Sichuan cuisine.

"I understand. In fact, when Old Man Wan came to see me yesterday, I already knew that many people would probably come after this matter.

That’s what I think. Since everyone is so interested, let’s do it together and share whatever good stuff everyone has.

There were some bad habits in the past that were indeed not suitable for the development of the times. The master always liked to hide his skills when teaching his disciples. Over time, many dishes were lost like this.

Not only does it take a lot of effort to restore these lost dishes, but the key is that it is difficult to restore them to 100%.

So many people are here today, and I want to throw some light on it. At the same time, it also expresses my attitude. Since everyone is so interested, then it should be a fair deal. "

fair trade?

As soon as Mr. Li said this suggestion, everyone was immediately unable to sit still, especially the master chefs of the other seven major cuisines.

Elder Ji couldn't hold back at first, and immediately asked: "Old man Li, what is fair trade, can you explain clearly?"

The rest of the people also wanted to ask what this sentence meant, but seeing that Mr. Ji helped everyone ask, they all calmed down and waited for Mr. Li's answer.

Mr. Li was also very straightforward. He directly opened the bag he brought, took out several thick yellowing books from it, and threw it on the table.

Then he made a surprising statement: "These are the secrets of Sichuan cuisine. If anyone is interested, you can exchange them, one for another, as long as I like them."

When everyone saw the names of these books on the table, the venue immediately burst into laughter.
