Food Prisoner: Gourmet Collector

"Molecular gastronomy?" Gin Dojima read Chikiri Alice's resume and knew what kind of cuisine this granddaughter of Chikiri Senzaemon, who had returned from studying abroad, was proficient in.

"Molecular cuisine?" Chenxing heard the name, but what he thought of was the fine cuisine that was marked with a $[-] million price tag. It seemed to have some similarities but the same purpose, but that world had some special ingredients that required careful craftsmanship to make them well done. The molecular cuisine of Chiakiri Alice is more like a special kind of refined cuisine. She changes the way the food is combined and turns the ingredients she sees into another dish.

"What? Can you do it too?" Dojima Gin asked curiously after hearing Chenxing's words.

"No." Chen When he saw it, Chenxing couldn't help but take another look.

"Ah, hey, that's good! The jelly made of salt water and the egg yolk made of caviar look like an ordinary egg has been beaten out." Miki Hinatako took a sip of the soup and said: " This one uses caviar as an egg material as an ingredient and then makes an egg.”

"This cut egg is good." At this moment, someone has come and stood in front of Alice Chikiri. When they saw Chenxing and the three of them, they all knew who it was, but generally speaking, no one except the suppliers would go out to greet them.

"It looks like a hard-boiled egg, but when you eat it, you realize that it is a mousse made of white asparagus and a sauce made of egg yolk."

"The last one is a drink made of egg shells?"

"Huh?" Chenxing finished one portion. After all, the portion was relatively small, so he could finish it in a few bites.The evaluation given by Chenxing is good, not because of the taste. The taste can be said to be inferior to the Mito Yumei opposite. But the theme this morning is egg cuisine, which means that if innovation can be a bonus, Pheasant Kiri Alice's bonus is Highest.

"Chenxing-kun, how are you?" Alice Zhiqie asked Chenxing nervously, seeming to be quite concerned about Chenxing's answer.

"Yeah!" Chenxing ignored Alice Chikiri and just nodded. After all, in addition to being a famous chef, Chenxing himself is also a so-called Michelin reviewer, so his evaluation is very important to some people.Although Chenxing himself doesn't care about Michelin and doesn't need its recognition, ordinary chefs and restaurants do.

"Lord Chenxing?" Ganhyugako also looked at him and asked.

"Let's go" was not answered, which directly made Chiakiri Alice a little crazy, but there was nothing she could do about it.She really wanted to know Chenxing's evaluation, but Chenxing obviously didn't want to say more.

"Pheasant Kiri Erina passed [-] copies!!!"

"Wow, someone has qualified so soon?" Miki Hinatako said in surprise when she heard Shinomiya Kojiro's voice on the radio.

"Takmi is qualified!!!"

……

"Tick-tock-tock" time keeps ticking. Because of Chenxing's intervention, many students are not aiming to pass the exam this time. The most obvious ones are Erina Kikiri and Soma Yukihira. They are all constantly cooking and aiming. is the most.Because of Chenxing's intervention, Yukihira Souma changed his cooking early and completed the target of [-] qualified portions early.

"Okay, it's time." The voice from the radio, coupled with the clock on the wall, showed that the two hours had completely passed.

"Suck...!" Everyone gasped as they looked at the rankings on the announcement display in front of them.

Ranked first is Erina Kakiri with 680 and seven, and second is Soma Kohei with 630 and five.The third is the pheasant cut Alice 560 eight!

"Oh haha, it seems that I am awake." Erina Kakiri walked over with a proud look on her face and said to Soma Yukihira.

".'Damn it." Yukihira Souma was very annoyed, but there was no way. This was a loss, but it was not a loss in creativity and taste, but a loss in time. The dishes he made at the beginning did not attract customers, resulting in a longer time. Pheasant Erina was far behind, but it was good to still get second place. If he had not wasted time at the beginning, the first place would definitely be his.

"Chenxing, I wonder when your glowing food will arrive?" Erina Kakiri then looked at Chenxing.

"Just wait a minute!" Chenxing glanced at Erina Kakiri who looked like a winner and said, "I'm not the only one in the Chinese Food City who can make luminous dishes, so just wait a minute!"

Having said this, Chenxing listened and said, "Didn't you eat at the Chinese Food City once before?" Doesn't it mean that you had already eaten once when you went to the restaurant last time?

"Humph, damn it." When Chenxing mentioned this, Chiakiri Erina became angry and ran away with a red face.

"Erina-sama!!" Nito Hishako saw Kakiri Erina running away, and for a moment he didn't know whether to follow him or not, because he also knew what Chenxing just said, that she was following Kakiri Erina. We were going to the Chinese Food City. Thinking of this, Nito Hisako blushed, looked at Chenxing and ran away, chasing after Erina Kakiri.

"What happened to them?" Yukihira Soma didn't know why, so the two ran away.

"Okay, don't worry about them." Chenxing shook his head and stopped caring about Erina Chiakiri.

"Chen Xingjun" had a Chikiri Erina running over at this moment, and a Chikiri Alice came unexpectedly. Chenxing looked at Chikiri Alice in confusion and asked: "What's going on?".

Chapter 48 The test is over

"Lord Chenxing"

"Huh?" The time has come to the tenth day, and what is going on is the cooking review specially prepared by Chenxing for this group of chefs, which is the eight dishes of the life menu.

"There is a woman outside looking for you." Feishao came over and said to Chenxing.

"Who?" Chenxing looked at Feishao with confusion and asked.

"I don't know, but the other party said her name is An Ran."

"Well" Chenxing suddenly felt bad.Why did this girl come to the door?

"Hey, An Ran." Chenxing walked out bravely and saw An Ran coming to him in a holiday style.

"Hey, my boss, you still remember me as secretary!" An Ran said and approached Chenxing.

"Go away and say what you have to say." Chenxing was afraid of this girl. Is it definitely not a good thing for this girl to speak so gently?

"You came here for vacation, and you actually left your lovely secretary at home to work? What do you think." An Ran only said.

"This is also work!" Chenxing explained, and then talked about the one-month training camp.

"I don't care, I want a holiday too." An Ran took out a stack of documents and threw them into Chenxing's hands.Then he walked to the front desk to check in. Chenxing looked ashamed. If you want a holiday, it's as if I don't give it to you.

In the Chinese Food City, apart from Chen Xing, the boss, the one with the most power is An Ran. Because of certain things in the past, An Ran is 100% obedient to Chen Xing, but this is only for big things, this girl also has her own temper.

"Let's go." Chenxing completed the check-in procedures with An Ran, and then took her to his own floor. He, Shinomiya and Miki Hinata lived on the same floor, while Soma Yukihira and Erina Kakiri lived on the same floor. In the ordinary room where the students live below, although it is a five-star hotel and is owned by Totsuki, Erina and Alice also do not have the privilege to stay in the VIP room.

"Where to go?" An Ran asked when he saw Chenxing with a question mark on his face.

"I'm going to bring you something good to eat. There happens to be a chef-level competition here today. Well, it should be considered a competition! We can have a feast." Chenxing nodded and said.

"Ah, that's great." An Ran said with excitement. In fact, in the Chinese Food City, if An Ran wanted to eat, even the deputy chef would cook for her personally (bafh), but this girl didn't want to In this way, and she also knows Chen Xing's character, so she rarely uses her privileges to do such things.

"What to eat?"

"Menu of life!" Chenxing continued: "But I guess they don't know what their menu of life is yet. After all, there is no such concept, but a Western-style full meal can be explained."

"Is this so?" An Ran has been with Chenxing for several years and knows that Chenxing has his own menu in life, but so far, not many people have tried it.An Ran had only tasted two of the dishes, the soup dish Century Soup, and the fish dish Galaxy Abalone.

"But speaking of it, since boss you started your own menu of life, the chefs in the group have also started to look for their own menu of life." An Ran looked at Chenxing with a blank expression and said.

"Haha, don't worry about those guys." Chenxing smiled after hearing this. He had known about this for a long time, but he never paid attention to them. The concept of this life menu was brought over by Chenxing, mainly because he wanted these chefs to The chefs whose skills have reached the top level in the world find some future paths of their own.The original meaning of the menu of life is the ingredients or dishes in their world that can activate the body's gourmet cells and the evolution of gourmet demons. Here, Chenxing means the dishes that can carry his glory as a chef and what he has learned throughout his life.

Although the meanings are very different, Chen Xing feels that they are the same in their inner world. In addition to satisfying the guests, the chef is also satisfying himself.

"Oh, really?" An Ran nodded when she heard Chen Xing's words. Although her little brain couldn't figure out what Chen Xing meant, it didn't stop her from following Chen Xing's words and doing things.Chenxing shook his head. Today's competition was about halfway through, but no chef could make a dish that satisfied Chenxing.

"Really? That's it." Dojima Gin saw An Ran smiling in front of him. As a representative of Totsuki Resort, which cooperates with Chenxing's group, he knew An Ran.He avoided signing the contract because he, Chen Xing and An Ran were together, so the two of them were not strangers.

"Then stay here!" Dojima Gin laughed loudly and said, "Let's get together tonight."

"Okay, Chef Dojima." An Ran nodded and immersed herself in eating the food on the plate. This was the food Chenxing cooked for her personally. There was nothing she could do about it. If she hadn't comforted Anran with delicious food, Chenxing would probably be like this I don’t have to sleep peacefully for the rest of the month.

"By the way, is the boss's friend's son also training here?" An Ran asked while eating.

"Are you talking about Chuangzhen?" Chenxing tilted his head and looked at An Ran.

"What's wrong?" Dojima Ginya asked.

"Your friend came back the day before yesterday and then left again." An Ran said.

"This guy Seiichiro didn't even say hello when he came back." Chenxing drank a glass of wine with an angry look on his face.

"Why is he back?" Chenxing said angrily.

"Oh, he gave me this and then left." An Ran said and took out a folded newspaper from her small bag.

"Huh? Pheasants cutting thistles?" Chenxing saw that although the words above were all in English, it didn't prevent him from having an engine that he could easily translate them.However, Dojima Gin said in surprise after seeing the person above.

"Do you want to remind us?" Dojima Gin asked as he took the newspaper.

"Yes, but it's just you." Chenxing poured himself a glass of wine, then drank it slowly for a long time before saying.

"Yes, it's just us. But you won't help?" Dojima Gin shook his head and said.

"It depends on the situation, it's too weak." Chenxing shook his head and did not immediately agree to anything. Although he was free, he was not someone who liked to play. Who is Zhizhi Kiriji? Dojima Gin and Saiba Joichiro also said, But from Chen Xing's point of view, a pheasant cutting thistle is not a problem at all. It is just a test that the old man Senzaemon Senzaemon puts to the younger generation of Totsuki! .

Chapter 49 Pheasant Cut Thistle

"That's right." Dojima Gin nodded after hearing Chenxing's words. For Chenxing, a pheasant cutting thistle is really that weak.If Pheasant Kirito wants to have the strength to compete with Dojima Gin, he must obtain the resources of the entire Totsuki School.

As for Dojima Gin, as the general manager and chef of Totsuki Resort, he doesn't care at all about a pheasant cut thistle who has not yet succeeded in taking the position. Even if he takes the position, it is impossible to attack him without coming to curry favor with him. That's not bad. After Chenxing's reminder, Dojima Gin also knew that he had made a mistake, that is, taking pheasants and thistles too seriously.

"The one you're talking about belongs to Mr. Chikiri Senzaemon...?" An Ran asked strangely when he heard the conversation between the two.

"Oh, you know him too?" Dojima Gin asked curiously, because as An Ran's assistant at the Chinese Food City, she shouldn't know such an unknown figure, although Pheasant Kirito was very famous in her school days. , but since he has been away from home all these years, it should be impossible for him to have any outstanding performance in China, so that he can be recognized by people like An Ran.

"Because he came to see me." An Ran raised his head and looked at the lamp on the ceiling, as if he was thinking about something.

"Huh?" Dojima Gin asked doubtfully: "When?"

"The day before yesterday! I just booked a plane ticket to come here." An Ran thought for a while and then said: "To be honest, he didn't come to see me, he came to see you, boss."

"Che" Chenxing didn't say anything after hearing what the two said.In fact, when An Ran first said that Zhi Qieji came to the Chinese Food City, Chenxing had already guessed that Zhi Qieji must have come to find him, and the purpose was actually to cooperate or seek support.

"Are you talking about cooperation or support? I guess with his personality, it should be the latter!" Chenxing followed what Dojima Gin and Saiba Joichiro told him about Kiki Kiritsuga, plus the old man Kiki Kirisen. There are some things that Zaemon knows, and he probably knows some things~.

"Ah, boss, you are so smart!" An Ran's surprised expression filled his face, but this was not a performance, but sincere. Dojima Gin on the side also looked at Chen Xing in surprise.

"How did you know?"

"Yeah, I want to know too." An Ran also asked curiously.

"This kind of person will not rely on others, so there is a high probability that it will be the latter." Chenxing shook his head and said, "But how do you reply to him?"

"What else could I do? Of course I refused." An Ran pouted and said, "I don't know him, and he looked aloof and seemed to look down on me as a secretary, so I just drove him away."

"Are you saying I'm doing the right thing?"

"Haha" Chenxing and Dojima Gin laughed.

"There is no right or wrong, he is not worthy." What Chenxing said is not a lie. He himself is already one of the top people in the world. In the food world, although Chenxing does not want to be exposed to politics and power, there are some Things can't be avoided. It's not false that one word can affect Neon like he is doing now.Especially in a country like Neon that favors Western economic capitalist ruling groups, the Chinese Food City, which owns 30.00% of Neon’s high-end restaurant and hotel turnover, is the party of Neon’s current high-end class and most of the white-collar, rich, second- and third-generation students. first choice for consumption.

"Hehe, I knew the boss was the best." An Ran said with a smile.

"However, Chenxing." Dojima Gin said worriedly: "The fact that he can come back to Neon proves that he has made some preparations."

Dojima Gin's worries are actually justified, because Chihiro Kiriki can control Totsuki and then some of the Neon executives. Don't underestimate Totsuki's influence, although even if Chihiki Kiritsuki becomes the commander-in-chief, it is impossible to 100 % takes over all the industries of Yuanyue, but it is enough to affect the political situation of Neon.

"Haha, that's too unfounded." Chenxing shook his head and said, "You and Seiichiro are the same, you haven't seen the essence of things clearly."

"What do you mean?" Dojima Gin asked confused.

"Yuanyue's structure has changed, haven't you noticed?" Chenxing smiled and said: "Not only Yuanyue School, but also Yuanyue's industries, don't forget that they are all part of me."

"Could it be that the rumors are true?" Gin Dojima looked at Chenxing in shock after hearing Chenxing's words and asked: "It is rumored that you have discussed with the commander-in-chief to exchange for the large-scale real estate project of Chinese Food City in Tokyo Bay , to acquire 20.00% of Yuanyue’s overall shares.”

"I know this." An Ran raised his hand and said: "The boss has asked me to communicate with Mr. Chikiri Senzaemon, and the contract was signed ten days ago. In addition to the 70.00% of the boss's private purchase, shares, as well as the shares held by the two sisters Chikiri Erina, plus the shares held by chef Gin Dojima. The shares of the three of us have exceeded [-]%, even if Mr. Chikiri Senzaemon gave up The position of commander-in-chief cannot be given to the person like Pheasant Cutting Thistle, it has to go through us."

. . . 0

"and……"

"Yes." Dojima Gin nodded, because he knew what Anson said, and he knew who owned the last 20.00% of the shares, so he was not worried that this part would be obtained by Chiakiriji.Chisakiri Hisagi also didn't know that Totsuki's shares had changed. Including his 15.00%, more than 50.00% was not in the hands of Commander Chisakiri Senzaemon. He only had it temporarily. He holds 40.00% of the shares of the Erina and Chisakiri sisters, and 5.00% of the shares of Chisakiri Thistle, but they are of no use at all.

"You can do it, you can take Totsuki into your hands without saying a word?" Dojima Gin said happily jokingly.

"This is the old man's back-up. I don't want Yuanyue's shares." Chenxing shook his head and said: "Except for a few resorts and hotels in Yuanyue, there is actually nothing valuable. As for Yuanyue School and the things inside, I basically don’t like students.”

"That's right." Dojima Gin nodded when he heard Chenxing's words. He knew that what Chenxing said was true. After all, the gold-eating beast of Chinese Cuisine City was super powerful, and even he was envious of it.

"What are your plans next?"

"Which one are you referring to?" Chenxing poured himself another glass of wine without looking at him.

"Both aspects" means.

Chapter 50 Map of the Sea Bream Continent

"Two" Chenxing muttered and repeated, but it wasn't because he couldn't hear clearly, it was just that he didn't know how to talk about it for a while. He didn't have any so-called plans. After all, he had super advanced cooking skills and himself. With an entire group plus a plug-in, to be honest, Chenxing really has nothing to fear.

There are two aspects, one is himself and the other is Yuanyue. As Chenxing is now a member of Yuanyue and a shareholder, his every move actually has a great influence on Yuanyue.

"But you don't seem to care much." Dojima Gin shook his head when he saw Chenxing's expression. To be honest, he also knew what Chenxing was thinking. After all, for Chenxing, the Chinese Food City is his foundation. Totsuki is more It was a favor with the old man Zhiqie, and he estimated that Chenxing would not occupy the "[-]" Yuanyue shares for too long.

"Yeah" Chenxing shook his head. Dojima Gin's guess was correct, but not entirely correct.Chenxing will not hold Totsuki for a long time. As long as Soma Yukihira or Erina Kakiri takes over Totsuki's banner, Chenxing will withdraw.

Now Yueyue seems to be very good and brilliant, but in fact it is already suffering from internal and external troubles. Few of the ten heroes are really capable, or those who are capable but have a bad personality cannot bear Yueyue's name.

"Boss" At this time, An Ran suddenly spoke.

"I brought a fresh snapper."

"Huh?!" Chenxing suddenly stared at An Ran with wide eyes. This guy actually brought his own ingredients. It seemed that he had been planning for a long time.

"What do you want?"
