Food Customizer
Chapter 53 Distinguished Guests from the Capital
In preparation for this banquet, Su Chen first started to boil the soup stock that needed to be used.
After putting on the achievement badge, start slicing the pork.
In many Hubei dishes, pork is added as an ingredient, which not only improves the taste of the dishes, but also adds richness to the taste.
The front leg meat is divided into two parts from the fat to the lean point.
The fatty meat was cut into soybean-sized pieces, while the lean meat was chopped into minced meat. Su Chen cut a lot of it at once, and these ingredients were used in several dishes.
According to the plan in the training room, Su Chen handled all kinds of ingredients in an orderly manner. Fortunately, there was a gourmet training room.
This is a day that has passed. Su Chen appears to be very steady in every step of the process, especially in terms of knife skills. Although there are not many tricks, every knife is fast and accurate.
Nothing is superfluous and nothing is lacking.
Xia Kingdom, capital city.
"Uncle Lu, it's my turn to visit you tonight. I didn't expect you to be in the capital as well. Come and have some tea."
Xia Guo Urban Construction Group, Shang Mingke refilled the tea respectfully, picked up He Tianxia on the table, pulled out one and handed it to the person opposite him, but he didn't smoke it himself.
"You kid, it's been a few years since you came back and you still don't know how to go back to the village. What's going on? Did you forget about the small village when you came to the big city?" the old man wearing casual sportswear joked.
Although the old man said this, he could not help but feel proud on his face, "You are the first such a promising college student in our village. Since you have returned to China now, you should go back to the village more often."
"That's what you taught."
Shang Mingke's respectful attitude puzzled his assistant.
At the age of forty, within five years of joining Xiacheng Construction Group, Shang Mingke had climbed from the bottom to the position of general manager.
This is not a small company, but a state-owned enterprise that is the leader in Xia Guo City Construction!
As for Shang Mingke's current position, some top leaders from small third-tier cities have to speak politely when they meet him.
So seeing the leader being so respectful to an old man who didn't know where he came from made the assistant a little confused. Could it be that he was a cadre at the foot of the imperial city?
"I just came here yesterday to help cook two dishes. I originally planned to go back today. When I found out that you are coming back today, I can't shirk you this time! Come back with me. I will cook the dishes myself in the evening, and we will drink. Two mouthfuls!”
Shang Mingke smiled and said, "Uncle Lu, I am going back to Hubei Province today. But I have to go to Jingzhou at noon. I have to go to Jingzhou for the favor arranged by the above."
"Hey!" Lu Yongliang's eyes widened, "Are you going to Jingzhou? I'll follow you! Who knows how many more days you'll have to be busy."
After a pause, Lu Yongliang leaned forward and lowered his voice, "Don't worry, no one will know that you are coming home this time, and there won't be those random people disturbing our drinking."
Shang Mingke closed his eyes helplessly and smiled, "I'm not worried about you being here. It's easy to go back to Jingzhou this time. It's just a personal relationship and there is no work content. But you, were you busy yesterday?"
Lu Yongliang took a deep breath and leaned back on the sofa, "I am an old man, and I can only be busy all day long. The State Guesthouse invites us because it respects Hubei cuisine. Even though it only cooks one dish, it still respects me. If I don't stay busy anymore, Get up, Ecai will be squeezed out by those companies."
The assistant beside him had a calm expression on his face, but his heart was filled with turmoil.
State Guesthouse?
If you go there to cook, wouldn’t it mean that the old man in front of you is
hiss! Is Mr. Shang actually a fellow villager with such a person?
Their village is really full of outstanding people!
Shang Mingke smiled.
This is indeed the case. The pace of modern life is so fast. Hot pot and barbecue are very popular. Shandong, Sichuan, Guangdong and Hunan cuisine are gaining momentum. Hubei cuisine is a bit unpopular.
"Anyway, I'm thinking about your bite. I couldn't eat all those things in the first few years abroad. It's hard to come back. There isn't a serious Hubei restaurant in the capital. Don't worry. What can I say tonight? You have to go back. You’ve been tired for a long day. I’ll book you a first-class flight at noon and go back to rest.”
The tone in which Shang Mingke spoke to Lu Yongliang was as if he was coaxing a child.
He remembered clearly that when he was a child, Lu Yongliang worked as a chef in a state-owned hotel in the county. He could bring something delicious home every night. At that time, the relationship between neighbors was also good.
The things Lu Yongliang brought back would always be shared with Shang Mingke's family, and this share lasted for more than ten years.
At that time, Lu Yongliang was still holding on to Shang Mingke and wanted to be his apprentice!
Later, the state-owned hotels were reorganized and many private restaurants appeared. Lu Yongliang left the restaurant and began to be invited to participate in some food competitions and other activities abroad. He also contributed many recipes of Hubei cuisine to domestic culinary associations.
Until a few years ago, Lu Yongliang became a professor of hotel management at a university in Hubei Province. While teaching and educating people, he also passed on what he had learned as much as possible.
In Shang Mingke's eyes, Lu Yongliang is as great a figure as his father.
"No, no!" Lu Yongliang shook his head like a child, "Absolutely not, you said the same thing last time."
Seeing the old uncle's insistence, Shang Mingke held his forehead helplessly.
He knew the old man's temper, and even ten cows wouldn't be able to pull him back if he really decided something.
It's impossible not to go to Jingzhou. It's all a favor arranged by the superiors. In this case, Shang Mingke won't talk nonsense.
"Xiao Zhang, please add a first-class ticket to your later flight. Let's talk to the contact unit. We only have half an hour. Book two tickets to return to Hubei Province at 3 p.m."
"Okay, Mr. Shang."
Shang Mingke looked at the old man with a smile, "Uncle Lu, is it okay this time?"
"That's more like it!" Lu Yongliang said proudly, just like a child who succeeded in his plan.
"Then let's get ready to leave now? No dinner today, just a bite on the plane in the afternoon, and I'll have a good drink with you in the evening!"
"You are still so sensible, haha!" Lu Yongliang looked at Shang Mingke with satisfaction.
He has liked this kid since he was a child, and he is very insightful in doing things. If he wasn't the first child in the village to be admitted to university, he would have let this guy inherit his mantle no matter what. Every time he thought of this, Lu Yongliang felt heartbroken!
The bus of the Urban Construction Group took the two to the airport.
"Your line is very hard, I see you take a plane all day." Lu Yongliang chatted in the car.
Shang Mingke shook his head, "If the boss of this company hadn't had some power in Beijing, there would be no need to go to Jingzhou this time. Designing something is pretty much the same to a certain extent, and it doesn't matter who you use."
"Oh? I know what you mean. Just like when I cook, it doesn't matter what kind of flowers I carve, the key is to see what flowers the VIP likes, haha!"
The two chatted casually and embarked on this "not so important but must go" journey.
Jingzhou, Ling Shuyu had arrived at the airport an hour in advance.
Waiting outside the door, she took a sip of the water next to her from time to time.
This is the highest-ranking person she has ever received since she started working, and it is also the most important design for the company since she started working.
Although the order is only three million, as long as this order is won, Xinghui will be able to get in touch with Xia Chengjian in the future, and the leader she is connected with is said to be a very picky person.
Ling Shuyu took out the plan she prepared in advance and started to look at it. She would never allow herself to make even the slightest mistake!
