Chapter 661 The expectation of “home”
Chu Yunfeng was still chatting with Peng Yue without saying a word, and they were actively arguing with each other. The words of the two elders immediately made him raise his head suddenly and look at them in confusion.

organization?

Although no one understood it, Chu Yunfeng understood it immediately.

The emotional couple wanted me to agree to join the state banquet team. Didn't I already refuse before?

Don't they both know?
Also, Master Ji knows him personally. Who is this kind-looking person next to him?Is he also a state banquet master?
"Master Ji, I have already told President Hou about this matter before, I think it is not the time yet, I still need to practice more."

Chu Yunfeng confided his truest thoughts very sincerely, but unexpectedly he was met with ruthless contempt.

"Hmph~! Little guy, don't we know you need exercise?

This is where you can't exercise. After you come in, you can exercise even more. You don't have to exercise even if you don't want to! "

Master Ji had a straight face, a very serious expression, and a strong sense of criticism.

"Young people should be more encouraged. What are you doing so fiercely? Don't scare them. Say something well."

Mr. Liu on the side spoke gently. This seemed to be persuading Master Ji, but those who were interested did not think so. At least at this time, President Hou, who was standing behind them, shook his head helplessly.

These two old guys, who are over 150 years old in total, are bullying young comrades, one is a good guy and the other is a bad guy, aren't they?

"Who is this?"

Seeing that Master Ji didn't introduce him for a long time, Chu Yunfeng had no choice but to ask himself.

"This is Mr. Liu, who is also a member of the organization. He is good at Huaiyang cuisine and Shandong cuisine. He is the only person in the organization who is good at these two major cuisines."

Master Ji still kept a straight face, but introduced Mr. Liu well.

Although this was just an introduction to Mr. Liu, it talked about the organization. People around him immediately understood that it was this organization that invited Chu Yunfeng to join.

What the hell!

It's a state banquet!

Two heavyweight masters jointly invited Chu Yunfeng to join the state banquet team. What is going on?
This is a state banquet, which represents the highest honor for a chef. No matter which chef outside says, "I have served a state banquet before," it will definitely attract much attention.

But that's beside the point!
Everyone suddenly discovered a very scary thing, that is, it was not the first time that Chu Yunfeng had been invited.

It seems that he has been invited once before, but he declined?
Damn your sister, that’s an invitation to a state banquet. Are you a little too pushy? You won’t even go to the state banquet?
And this time it seems that the two big guys have joined forces to invite again. Isn’t this a little too generous?
With such specifications, it seems that Chu Yunfeng still doesn't want to agree. What is this for?
"Hello Mr. Liu, please give me some advice if you have the opportunity."

Chu Yunfeng's advice was just polite. How could someone like Mr. Liu have the time and energy to guide him?
But unexpectedly, Mr. Liu actually said: "That's no problem. As long as you join the organization, we will have plenty of time and opportunity to discuss cooking skills. What do you think?"

Mr. Liu's words instantly "ignited" the surroundings. This was simply a naked invitation. I want to ask the chefs present today, who can have this honor?

This is an invitation to a state banquet, as well as recommendations from Mr. Liu and Master Ji.

"Uh~! I'm really sorry. Can you wait until I finish my work first?"

Chu Yunfeng got a headache when he thought about this. It was no exaggeration at all. Now he really didn't want to join this state banquet team.

Because there is indeed a big gap in my current ability, and I don't know what the two elders are fancying about me, so they even sent out another invitation.

"Hey~! Why are you so stubborn?

I, Lao Ji, was still hesitant to invite you personally. If it were anyone else, he would have agreed long ago, but it's a good thing that you've taken it easy.

Look how bad-tempered I have been in so many years."

Master Ji continued to sing blackface, but Chu Yunfeng just smiled and nodded, and continued cooking.

When Mr. Liu saw Lao Ji talking, he couldn't hold it back and quickly stopped him.

"Okay, let's wait until the game is over. Just hurry up and we'll wait for you."

Mr. Liu tried to smooth things over with a smile. After seeing Chu Yunfeng's response, he had to sigh with emotion at Chu Yunfeng's persistence and secretly sighed that this was indeed a good idea.

In the face of the auras of myself and Master Ji, I can still maintain my original intention and focus on cooking. I have to say that it is very rare.

"Xiao Hou, I'm not telling you, you should have told us earlier for a good young talent like Xiao Chu.

Also, you declined the invitation, because he is ignorant. You are so old, are you still as ignorant as him?
You are still the president?
I don’t know how you usually act as the president. You usually act like a hands-off shopkeeper, right?Did Xiao Zhang do all the following things? "

Although Master Ji was singing red faces, he was really optimistic about Chu Yunfeng. Seeing that he didn't agree immediately, he was still a little angry.

When he turned around, he saw President Zhang whispering to President Hou, so he took his anger out on President Hou.

"Mr. Ji, can you blame me? Me."

"Don't explain to me, I won't listen, you"

Master Ji seized President Hou and just scolded him all the time. The key point is that no matter what President Hou said, Elder Ji just didn't buy it. It made President Zhang stand aside and leave, which was very depressing.

"Brother, did you really, really invite you to join that organization?"

Seeing that the second elder had gone to the side to talk, Peng Yue hurriedly stepped forward and asked. The surprise on his face completely revealed the shock in his heart.

"Let me go, are those two old men telling the truth?"

Guo Kui also looked shocked and bewildered, and he still can't believe it now.

My good brother, who has lived under the same "roof" for several years, is now able to host a state banquet?

Hu Yue and the other two chefs also came over and asked. It was obvious that the news brought them so much information that they wanted to know the result immediately.

I don’t want to wait a second longer!
"Hey~! You said it was fun, do you really believe it?
Don’t you know how much I weigh? "

Chu Yunfeng would not announce this matter in a high-profile manner, so he just avoided the important and explained it in a joking tone.

"Let me tell you, those who can go to the state banquet are basically at my master's level. If you really go in now, you will definitely be the youngest chef in the state banquet.

none of them! "

After hearing what Chu Yunfeng said, Peng Yue immediately snapped his fingers and acted like no one knew more about state banquets than me.

"So that's the case. That's a pity. If you really go in, maybe we can sneak in and broaden our horizons!"

Guo Kui's shocked expression instantly turned into regret, as if he had lost his qualifications.

Hu Yue and the others also felt a little pity, and then returned to their seats to continue cooking.

Just when everyone lost interest in this topic, a mocking voice sounded at an inappropriate time.

"Tch~! You just believe it when he says it?
Mr. Ji and Mr. Liu are the big names in the state banquet team and have the right to speak on many matters. Could it be that they would make such a joke? "

The person who spoke was Wu Junjie. He had also heard the second elder's invitation from behind just now. The shock in his heart was simply beyond words.

"Old Wu, you are thinking too much. Didn't Chu Yunfeng explain just now that they are
Hmm~?No, what you said seems to make sense. Well, brother, is this true? "

Peng Yue had already believed Chu Yunfeng, but Wu Junjie's words made him realize that this seemed to be true?
"I told you it was just a joke. If you don't believe me, why don't you go ask me?"

Chu Yunfeng raised his head and glanced at Wu Junjie, and found that he was still as cold and cold as ever, and had not changed at all.

"I'm not going, I"

Before Peng Yue finished speaking, Wang Zhiqiang walked up, patted Peng Yue on the shoulder and said, "It's rare that all of you young people are here today, why don't we get together in the evening.

Peng Yue, our hero is left to you. He is not familiar with the capital, so you, a local owner, need to be more careful. "

Wang Zhiqiang said hello to everyone and left, leaving Peng Yue confused.

Your Junjie is not a child, so what do you want me to do?
"Chu Yunfeng doesn't have time tonight, why don't we get together tomorrow night, and I'll call "everyone" to get to know each other.

Chu Yunfeng just won a beautiful victory, so he just wants to tell us about it, so that we can have a clear idea, right? "

When Peng Yue mentioned the word "everyone", he emphasized it specially. Chu Yunfeng and Wu Junjie understood that they should be the seed contestants selected from the eight major cuisines.

"I don't care. I'll wait until you call me."

Wu Junjie put his hands in his pockets, said something cool and waved away.

"Ignore him, that's what he is like, so I'll go back first and wait for my call tomorrow."

Peng Yue saw the second elder approaching, and then quickly ran away.

While talking here, Chu Yunfeng's Snowflake Chicken Nao was ready, sprinkled with minced ham, and put a mint leaf on it.

This kind of arrangement is already very beautiful. The snow-white clouds are dotted with stars, and the green leaves are used as a backdrop. The presentation is quite exquisite.

But to Chu Yunfeng, this is just a semi-finished product, and without the support of the carver, it is not perfect.

So the bamboo shape was quickly placed on the dinner plate, and the touches of green made the dish more high-end and classy.

"Hmm~! It's very good. The bamboo presentation of this dish has a profound artistic conception."

"Yes, this little guy's carving skills are already in full swing. He is very malleable."

The second elder left after seeing the dish made by Chu Yunfeng, and wanted to go to other booths to see if he could find anything "fresh".

After Chu Yunfeng finished the Snowflake Chicken Chowder, he started to make the next dish.

Guo Kui and Hu Yue each made a dish and then placed it on the booth themselves.

Guo Kui makes homemade Dongpo Pork. Although the name sounds very ordinary, Guo Kui's presentation is not simple, and he uses the most traditional method.

Only two pieces of Dongpo pork were made in total, each piece was tied up with a rope, and each piece of Dongpo pork was placed in a golden casserole.

The bottom of the small pot is filled with crystal clear rice. The place where the Dongpo meat touches the rice has been soaked in red sauce, and an emerald green "lao'erbai" is placed next to it.

The two small pots are set off by the flowers carved by Guo Kui, which makes people drool at the sight and want to taste the taste of the sauce with rice.

Hu Yue is also creative and makes a bear paw tofu dish.

Each piece of tofu is the same size, and after using the bean paste, the color is unusually beautiful, making it very appetizing as soon as you open it.

The most interesting thing is that Hu Yue carved the base of a bear's paw out of a pumpkin, giving this home-cooked dish a new and unique twist.

The other two chefs are also very innovative, and the dishes are very new.

With 5 minutes left in the game, Xingchen Hotel finally finished making all the dishes, which made Mu Qing and the others heave a sigh of relief.

After Chu Yunfeng and the others came to the booth to take a look, they asked Liu Xiaoxiao and the others to rearrange the dishes. The dishes on the booth looked even more beautiful.

Finally it was time for the scoring. Chu Yunfeng and others were waiting next to the booth, waiting for the judges to check one by one and return their scores to the organizing committee.

After the scores of the team competition were calculated, it was no surprise that Star Hotel won No.1.

When the host announced the result, everyone in the Star Hotel cheered.

"The stars are number one? It seems like this hotel is participating in a national competition for the first time. Isn't it a bit impressive?"

"Isn't that right? Just now you saw the dishes they made. The nine-color box alone is extraordinary. It's so exquisite that it has no friends."

"When you say that, I'm starting to worry. If we do this nine-color saving box in this afternoon's individual competition, isn't the first place guaranteed?"

"That's right, what is the origin of this star? It's a bit too fierce. Do you want to win the double championship?"

People who know it and those who don't know it have now seen the strength of the Star Hotel, which has really made its name in the hotel industry across the country.

There were no surprises in the individual competition in the afternoon. Chu Yunfeng made a nine-color saving box by himself and won the first place in the individual competition.

Liu Xiaoxiao won No. 3 in the waiter skills competition. Hu Yue seemed to be happier than Liu Xiaoxiao and was teased by everyone.

Chu Yunfeng and Mu Qing "sneaked away" before the competition was completely over. Firstly, they were going to Mr. Xia's house for dinner, and secondly, Chu Yunfeng was afraid that the two elders would catch him soon.

As for what they should do if they can’t find themselves?
Then let President Hou have a headache, anyway, I sent him a text message when I left.
Mr. Xia went straight from the airport to the seafood market and bought an Alaskan king crab and several blue crabs, as well as many of Mu Qing's favorite foods.

This seafood dinner is the protagonist, and it is also Mr. Xia's expectation for "home".

After returning home, I started slowly processing the ingredients, and the smile on my face never stopped.

The DNA identification will not come out in two days, and Mr. Xia became a little nervous and excited when he thought about it.

If the result was true, I felt a little uneasy. What if Chu Yunfeng didn't recognize me?
I wonder if he will listen to my explanation?

Mr. Xia's mood was very complicated, but he still had a smile on his face. He had been disappointed many times. Is this time still behind him?

Ding Dong!

The doorbell rang.
