Chapter 994 It’s too difficult to be free

First, they sent President Xiong home. It was already one o'clock in the morning. Mu Qing was ready to send Chu Yunfeng back, but he refused.

It was too late to send him back to the hospital, and he was worried about Mu Qing driving alone, so Chu Yunfeng could just take a taxi back after accompanying Mu Qing to the hospital.

"Go back quickly and get some rest early. It's been so hard these days and you have to stay up late tonight. You have to pay attention to your health!"

In the square of the hospital, Mu Qing hugged Chu Yunfeng tightly, feeling a little distressed. After giving him a reward, she immediately walked into the inpatient building.

I was afraid that if I were later, I would be reluctant to part with his warm embrace.

Chu Yunfeng touched his face and laughed with satisfaction, but then he took a deep breath. There were still a lot of things to do next, and it seemed like a luxury to have a rest easily.

When I arrived at the door of the store early the next morning, I found that there were still so many people queuing up, but Chu Yunfeng changed his strategy today. The free orders were distributed randomly, 20 people an hour.

Leave this kind of thing to the system, it will be easier.

I originally told Guo Kui to come later, but I didn't expect that he came over early anyway, so the two of them started to get into a busy rhythm again.

In the morning, Chu Yunfeng received a call from President Xiong, which made Chu Yunfeng think deeply.

"Brother Chu, today we need to submit the list for the Global Master Chef Competition. Are you going to compete alone, or do you need to bring an assistant?

Participants in this competition are allowed to bring assistants. Please consider whether you want to bring an assistant. It will still be of great help.

Although I know you cook very quickly, the tests in some competitions are not that simple, and it is still necessary to have the help of an assistant.

Think about it and give me an answer before you get off work in the morning. "

President Xiong's words reminded Chu Yunfeng that this time's competition was indeed a little different from the past, and the events competed in the three competitions were all different.

There is definitely no problem in the Chinese food competition by myself, but when it comes to dim sum and international food, I am really short of it, so I still need an assistant.

Then the choice of this assistant is very crucial. Who should he ask to accompany him?
President Hou also said before that the key task this time is to test the strength of future opponents in the past, and Peng Yue from Beijing and Wu Junjie from Yangcheng are also participating.

But whether they know the specific details and tasks is not certain.

Otherwise, Chu Yunfeng still wants Peng Yue to accompany him. After all, he is a member of the seed team and his cooking skills are not bad, especially in making dim sum.

Master Ji is very good at making palace pastries. This can be seen from the official website of the Beijing Hotel. I wonder if I can learn a few things this time I go to the capital.

Those are palace cakes, and those used by the royal family are synonymous with high-quality goods, so Chu Yunfeng is also very jealous.

But it may be very difficult. If you want to learn unique skills from others, you will know that it is not that simple.

So what can President Hou do?
After thinking about it, Chu Yunfeng picked up his mobile phone and walked out of the store, calling Hu Yue.

"There will be a Global MasterChef competition in Hong Kong next week. Do you have time to be my assistant? Let's try it together?"

He was very direct when talking to Hu Yue. Chu Yunfeng would not hide it. It just depends on whether Hu Yue will agree.

Soon, Hu Yue's slightly excited voice came over the phone: "No problem, this is a top cooking competition, it would be great to go and experience it.

By the way, why are you thinking of asking me to accompany you? Do you need to make any preparations in advance for this trip? "

Seeing Hu Yue agreeing, Chu Yunfeng also nodded secretly, and then replied: "This competition has three events, including Chinese food, dim sum and international food.

The last two items require your help, so preparation work must be done. I will notify you of the specific situation and we will discuss it carefully. "

"Okay, no problem. Call me anytime. I still have some experience in dim sum and international cuisine. We can discuss it carefully then."

After hanging up the phone, Chu Yunfeng felt that the matter was basically settled. Mr. Li still didn't know when he would be asked to go over for training, and President Hou was still waiting for his reply.

It seems that there is not much time left for myself. I just came back. It should not be a big problem to open the store for three days as agreed, but after these three days, maybe I have to go out again.

Fortunately, I didn't break my promise, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to explain it to everyone.

By the way, there are also premium packages. It seems that we can no longer book today. I guess I can only have time for one day, and I might not be able to arrange the rest of the time.

So Chu Yunfeng immediately called Hao Minming again: "Please withdraw the premium package booked for noon today. There may be a time conflict. I may have to go out in a few days."

"Ah, I'm going out again, boss. You've only been back for a few days. Where are you going this time?"

Hao Minming also felt a little tired for Chu Yunfeng. He had to go out not long after he came back, and he couldn't stay at home for a long time.

Chu Yunfeng explained the matter, and then Hao Minming sighed helplessly. It seems that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility on the shoulders.

Now that I have the title of an image ambassador, I need to make so many preparations. It seems that people who can successfully reach the top of the industry don't live as comfortable a life as outsiders see.

When Chu Yunfeng returned to the store, he continued to provide benefits to everyone. From time to time, he would put a dozen or so red oil pickles on the kitchen table for free, which made everyone exclaim and thank him.

Or put out a dozen glasses of juice, which are also free, surprising everyone.

But no one knew that Chu Yunfeng felt a little guilty and couldn't cook in the store for a few more days, so he thought of a way to give everyone more benefits.

Let's see if you can stay in the store for a while after you come back this time. After all, it's very hard for you to run out from time to time, okay?

Then Chu Yunfeng began to guess. If he went to Mr. Li for special training this time, what kind of dishes would the old man teach him?

When he was in Thailand last time, his old man was muttering that there was a very awesome dish that he had not passed on, and he didn’t know what the dish was.

But if you think about it, you can tell that the dish he was still thinking about at that time must be a very amazing dish. I wonder if he can learn it?
This old man has a really strict tone. I asked him twice later, but he just didn't open his mouth and changed the topic for himself every time.
At noon, Mu Qing called and told herself the good news that her mother could get out of bed today and could go downstairs to the garden to relax.

This was good news, so Chu Yunfeng began to ask: "Then when can I eat?"

This is the most important thing. It seems that Han Bingbing is recovering well. If he recovers quickly, Chu Yunfeng can arrange to invite the guests before going to the capital and have a good gathering together.

Mu Qing probably guessed what Chu Yunfeng was thinking, so she said with a smile: "I asked the doctor just now, and the doctor said that we can eat a small amount tomorrow.

But on the first day, it is best to mainly eat soup. On the second day, you can start with a small amount of porridge. Finally, you can decide according to the situation. "

That's not bad!

It seems that the recovery is still very fast. As long as you can eat, your body will gradually get better.

"Then I'll make the soup tomorrow. I'll just make a pure chicken soup. I won't add any other ingredients for the time being. It's safer this way, what do you think?"

Since you can drink soup, of course it is most suitable to use Yang Ming's Sunshine Silky Chickens, and what Chu Yunfeng said about making pure chicken soup is also easy to understand.

That is to add only a little salt and ginger slices, and really nothing else.

But even so, the taste of this chicken soup will definitely be very delicious, and it is also extremely nutritious.

You must know that the silky chicken raised by Yang Ming is originally a kind of medicinal chicken, and he usually feeds some local medicinal materials, so the nourishing effect is very good.

In addition, Chu Yunfeng had to use a synthetic method to make it. The taste and nutrition of this soup are definitely unavailable anywhere outside.

So Mu Qing immediately replied with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, my mother will definitely like the soup you made."

In fact, Mu Qing knew from the beginning that Chu Yunfeng would definitely make soup after she said this. After all, it was the first time her mother ate after waking up, and she wanted to give her the best taste.

Looking at the entire Chengdu, this chicken soup is definitely the only one. The key is that it can improve Chu Yunfeng's performance in front of his mother, so that she can know the depth of Chu Yunfeng's cooking skills for the first time.

The two chatted for a few more words before hanging up. At noon, Chu Yunfeng packed the lunches prepared for Mu Qing and Wu Ma, and after placing the order, he asked Ma Shangfei to help deliver them.

I won't go to the hospital today. It takes too much time to go back and forth. This also makes Guo Kui feel a lot more relaxed. If he is allowed to look at the store alone again, he may not know what problems will happen.

Now Guo Kui didn't dare to underestimate the enthusiasm of the guests, and his cooking speed was not as fast as Chu Yunfeng's, nor was he as superb as his, so he felt a little uneasy.

After Chu Yunfeng and Guo Kui took their time to eat at noon, they finally received a call from President Hou.

A tired voice came from the other end of the phone: "The results are there. Come to the capital in three days. This time it's not just you, all the cuisine seed contestants will be trained together."

Unified training?

This is somewhat beyond Chu Yunfeng's expectation, so this time he should be able to see the other five seeded players.

I wonder if their chefs are all master chefs at state banquets?

This is not necessarily true. At present, we only know that Peng Yue’s chef is Master Ji, and Wu Junjie’s chef does not seem to be in the kitchen of the state banquet. Therefore, Chu Yunfeng is very curious about who these people in the cuisine are learning from.

"Where is the training place? Which masters will train us?"

This is the most critical thing, and what Chu Yunfeng cares most about, is that he can know in advance how much he can learn.

I have Wang Zha in my hands. It is possible that after this training, others can only learn less than half of the essence, but I can learn everything. This is the gap.

"These haven't been decided yet, but they will be decided immediately in the next two days. Anyway, just be prepared. This is a rare opportunity, and you are the luckiest one."

Chu Yunfeng understood the meaning of President Hou's words. This relationship was completely a benefit for himself. The rest of the people were here to cover up. I guess everyone was kept in the dark.

So Chu Yunfeng tentatively asked: "Why did you gather everyone together in advance? Didn't you say that we would meet later?"

As soon as he talked about this matter, President Hou wanted to complain. You are simply born into blessings and do not know how blessed you are. Do you know how much effort you have put into this opportunity?
In fact, it was already past four in the morning when President Hou got off the plane. After twelve in the morning, his sleep became somewhat disturbed, so he couldn't sleep well on the plane.

After getting off the plane, I felt a little more awake. I didn't even go back home, I went directly to my office and squinted until dawn.

Then I bought something outside to fill my stomach and went to report to the leader. At first, I wanted to "muddle through" and did not tell Chu Yunfeng's guess.

Therefore, the leader immediately rejected President Hou's proposal and asked the masters of the state banquet kitchen to explain the essence of each major cuisine to Chu Yunfeng, which was definitely not easy.

Even if Chu Yunfeng participated in major international competitions in order to increase publicity for Chengdu, it was unconvincing. The master chefs in the kitchen for the state banquet were all very arrogant.

It is impossible for them to selflessly display their treasured skills without a justifiable reason. No one would agree to such an unreasonable request.

Therefore, President Hou had no choice but to tell Chu Yunfeng's guess, and put together the recently obtained information for analysis.

After hearing this, the leader's expression suddenly became serious. He repeatedly confirmed some details with President Hou, and then immediately set the tone.

Even if this matter is just speculation, it must be guarded against, so the training plan previously decided must be accelerated. First, gather all the seed players together so that everyone can get familiar with each other.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, let them go to the kitchen of the state banquet to learn. They are all the seeds of the eight major cuisines. The leaders of the younger generation, presumably those master chefs will still teach them carefully.

After all, not all the master chefs of the state banquet knew about this plan, so it could only be carried out secretly in the form of communication.

And this matter has to be discussed with the masters to see if they are willing. If not, this matter is really not easy to handle. After all, some masters still cherish their own unique skills.

But Mr. Ji and Mr. Liu knew about it, and with their mediation, this matter must be possible.

After President Hou explained the stakes to Chu Yunfeng, Chu Yunfeng also knew that he had thought about this matter too simply before.

After all, he is a master chef of state banquets, so how can he easily teach others his unique skills?
Now that the time has been set, I will go to the capital in three days, so there is still time to treat guests, and I can start making Buddha Jumping Wall today, otherwise it will be too late.

So when Chu Yunfeng asked: "I'll treat you to dinner the day after tomorrow, will you come back?"

On the other side of the phone, President Hou immediately lost his composure: "You did it on purpose, you just wanted me to fly back and forth, to torment me, right?"
