Zhang Guanghang's reluctance to participate in this accident directly led to Jiang Feng not being able to find a fourth player.

There are many chefs in Taifeng Building, but there are very few people who want to find four aspects that can not hold the team back, especially Jiang Feng and Sun Maocai.

Zhang Guanghang was once the best choice and everyone's default candidate, but the escort player directly abandoned the game for unknown reasons.

For this reason, Jiang Feng directly went to the afternoon practice, and went into the teahouse to discuss with the two old men and Sun Maocai the serious question of who the fourth contestant would be in the afternoon.

Ji Xue is not good, her business ability is okay, and her cooking level is OK, but Ji Xue's problem is that she belongs to an orthodox background and is a monk halfway, and she only makes a particularly good dish with Babao chestnut pigeons.

You must know that she doesn't even have ten dishes on the menu of Taifeng Building at the moment, so how can she list ten dishes for the program team to draw during the competition.

Sun Jikai is not very good, he has a lot of dishes, not to mention ten, twenty Sun Jikai can list them, but he is only good at quantity, not good quality.

Dong Shi and Dong Li are not good, the two brothers are good to add a piece, but it is not good to take it apart. Master Wang was also quickly excluded, not to mention Jiang Jian, who was not on the list of schools from the beginning.

After discussing for more than half an hour, everyone agreed that Qiu Fu was a good choice.

Qiu Fu is Sun Guanyun's apprentice, and he also served as the head chef of Jubaolou for a period of time, and his management ability is not good, but he is very capable of playing in business, and his cooking skills are exquisite, and he belongs to the kind of honest person who does things quietly.

If he participates, he will definitely make Tai Fung Lou like a tiger.

It just so happened that Qiu Fu didn't rest today, Jiang Feng called Qiu Fu, and learned that he was in Taifeng Building and didn't leave, so he immediately went to Taifeng Building.

In the afternoon, it was the rest time, and there were a few waiters in the hall sitting around chatting and playing with their mobile phones, and when they saw Jiang Feng coming, they greeted him with a smile. Jiang Feng also nodded at them and walked quickly towards the back kitchen.

There are only Qiu Fu and Sun Jikai in the back kitchen, and Qiu Fu is guiding Sun Jikai to cook, which looks like a stew.

"It's okay to hit the abalone with the cross knife flower, and the bamboo shoots have to be cut a little thinner, this ......" Qiu Fu was explaining seriously, and he didn't notice Jiang Feng coming at all, and even Sun Jikai didn't notice it.

"Master Qiu. ”

Only then did Qiu Fu notice that Jiang Feng had already walked behind him: "Brother Feng, you're here, what's the matter?"

Jiang Feng: "...... There's something I'd like to discuss with you. ”

Qiu Fu made a look of deafness.

"Some time ago, Chef Arnold invited us to participate in a reality show, you should have heard of it, right?" Jiang Feng asked, seeing Qiu Fu nodding before he continued, "Here's the thing, at noon, Chef Arnold sent me the competition system, I read it, I think it's good, there is no big problem, just one problem." ”

Qiu Fu: ?

"There is one less person, and four players are sent to participate, and now we have Master Sun and Wu Minqi on our side. Old chapter he... There may be some things that I can't participate in, but I just discussed with Master Sun and think that you are the most suitable. It's not a long time, about three or four months, and one and a half months of it doesn't affect normal life at all, but it's a little more troublesome later. ”

Jiang Feng was about to tell Qiu Fu about the detailed competition system, but Qiu Fu waved his hand again and again, and his face was full of rejection.

"No, no, no, I can't, I can't participate in this kind of show. This kind of reality show has to eat the camera next to it and shoot it in the face, right? I can't, I can't face the camera. ”

"Can't face the camera?" Jiang Feng was stunned, what was the latest reason for refusing to participate.

"Well, about 20 years ago, maybe almost 30 years ago, I also participated in a cooking competition, still in Europe. Qiu Fu explained, "It's not a particularly big game, and then... The players are not particularly strong, my results are quite good, I have made it to the semi-finals, and the result is ......"

Qiu Fu looked embarrassed, but still said: "I didn't expect the game to be quite formal, and there was a photographer recording the semi-finals game." Actually, it's not close, it's shooting from a distance, but I feel uncomfortable when someone is shooting. As a result, when cooking, the vegetables are not cut well, the seasoning is not good, the heat is wrong, and the sluggling meat is like sweet and sour sauce mixed with meat. ”

"At that time, I thought it was, I had never seen the world, the first time I saw a game, and I was nervous because I was on the road, but I was in a competition later, and there was a camera recording it, but it didn't work, I was nervous when I saw that thing, and I made a mistake. ”

Jiang Feng: ......

I can't see it, I didn't expect your idol burden to be quite heavy.

Qiu Fu has said that he will definitely not be able to participate in the reality show competition. It's just that there is a camera in the distance to shoot him, and he can be so nervous that he can't play abnormally, and if he participates in a reality show and a photographer follows him to shoot his face, he is afraid that he will not be able to distinguish between salt and sugar.

Just as Jiang Feng was about to go back to the teahouse to continue discussing with Sun Maocai to see if he could find another person suitable for the competition, Sun Jikai, who had been silent like a background board, suddenly spoke.

"May I?"

"Huh?" Jiang Feng was a little surprised.

You must know that Sun Jikai has been quite low-key during this time.

To what extent is it low-key? It was so low-key that when Jiang Feng hadn't gone to Yonghe Ju to learn cooking, it was clear that he and Sun Jikai were the only two people in the back kitchen who were practicing cooking every afternoon. But as long as it was mentioned that there was anyone else practicing in the kitchen in the afternoon, everyone's first reaction was Jiang Feng and there was no second reaction.

It's so low-key that it doesn't have a presence at all.

Once sharp, exuding three generations of rich people, rich people, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, and the second breath of Hexi, Young Master Sun, is now like an ordinary social animal, obviously he is richer than before, but he is more like an ordinary person than before.

Now Sun Jikai seems to be a tool man who can only repeat cooking, his daily life is monotonous and boring, he doesn't play with his mobile phone much, doesn't watch TV series, doesn't go shopping, doesn't climb mountains, doesn't listen to concerts, doesn't watch art exhibitions, and doesn't even meet Ji Yue at a barbecue stall at night.

You must know that it is the height of summer, and in the middle of summer in August, there is no figure of Young Master Sun on the barbecue stall.

Sun Jikai now comes to the kitchen early every day to cut vegetables, Jiang Feng once went to Sun Jikai's house to borrow vinegar at night, and accidentally saw a dazzling array of dishes in his refrigerator comparable to that of his aunt's refrigerator. When I asked, I found out that Sun Jikai had to practice cooking for one to two hours after returning home from work every day, not engaging in any entertainment activities, and directly taking a bath and sleeping.

His mechanical practice is not the same as Jiang Feng's practice, Jiang Feng's practice is to fight small monsters, and the goal of brushing experiential exercises is very clear, just to upgrade the boss, which makes people feel that Jiang Feng has been abnormal recently, and he is still working hard to be positive.

Sun Jikai's practice is a silent practice of moisturizing things, he seems to regard cooking practice as his daily life, as if his life should be like this, every day is to get up early to cut vegetables and sleep late to practice cooking.

A bit like Gu Li, Jiang Feng felt that Sun Jikai was becoming more and more like Gu Li, with no sense of existence and silence, but he was working hard all the time, but he didn't make people feel that he was working hard.

Sun Jikai offered to participate in the competition, which surprised Jiang Feng very much.

Qiu Fu felt very good and agreed: "Yes, little Kaibi is suitable for me." Xiao Kai is natural in front of the camera, and he was not nervous at all when he was interviewed before. ”

If Qiu Fu does not participate, Sun Jikai is indeed the best candidate, although his business ability is not particularly outstanding, but he is very comprehensive.

The most important thing is that he cooks quickly.

"Okay. Jiang Feng immediately agreed.

In fact, when he discussed with Sun Maocai just now, Sun Maocai told him that the four contestants don't have to find four with particularly strong business ability. It is difficult for a general restaurant to find four chefs with particularly strong business ability, and it is very good to have two.

The best configuration should be two chefs and two assistant chefs, two for the main attack, two for the auxiliary, if you want to take the first place, you must engage in this configuration. There is nothing to be afraid of in the early stage of the points competition, with Jiang Feng and Sun Maocai, the two gold-lettered signboards standing in Taifeng Building, and the sales must be no problem.

Sun Maocai felt that the key to deciding the list of the top four should be the weekly quiz that the program team did not indicate the specific content.

Sun Mao was a little surprised to see that Jiang Feng agreed so quickly, who is better between him and Qiu Fu, he is still a little forced in his heart.

"Don't you need to test it?" Sun Jikai himself felt that such a serious matter should be carefully considered.

"Test?" Jiang Feng was stunned, "How to test?" I know your level. ”

"Are you free this afternoon? If you have time, you can stay here a little longer, I'm going to make Bazhen seafood soup this afternoon, and you can taste it when it's ready." Sun Jikai proposed.

If it was two weeks ago, Jiang Feng would definitely say that he was not available, and he would have to go back to Yonghe Juxue to accept Peng Caiping's guidance. But now is different from the past, after taking over Zhou Shi's cat, Peng Changping forgot about the little apprentice and Jiang Feng, and the education model has also become free-range and free-range, and it is actually the same whether to go in the afternoon or not.

Today, Jiang Feng hasn't even seen Peng Changping's face.

"Okay, you wait for me to send a message...... Jiang Feng was about to take out his mobile phone and send a message to Zhou Shi, asking Zhou Shi to tell Peng Changping that there was something wrong with Taifeng Building, and he might have to go over at night, and then he saw the message that Zhou Shi sent to him.

Peng Changping has something to do this afternoon, and maybe he won't go over in the evening, so let the two of them do it by themselves.

Jiang Feng: ......

"I'm quite free today, you can continue to make soup, I'll make thirty wontons." ”

Idle is also idle, it is better to wrap some pure meat wontons to benefit the students of the Academy of Fine Arts.

Sun Jikai continued to make the soup, Qiu Fu stared at the side, and Jiang Feng went to find the ingredients and happily wrapped the wontons.

Just thirty wontons, plus chopping and adjusting the stuffing, it will be done in dozens of minutes. After wrapping the wontons, Jiang Feng was idle and had nothing to do, seeing that Sun Jikai was still busy and it was not good for him to be idle, but he didn't eat braised pork today, and his enthusiasm for work was not so high.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Feng decided to make porridge.

He hasn't cooked porridge for some days, and it is estimated that the rivers and lakes have almost forgotten the legend of his porridge king.

It's easy to make porridge, prepare the ingredients to control the heat, handle the ingredients, put them in the pot, and everyone can sit directly on the side and play with their mobile phones, as long as they remember the time.

Jiang Feng found a large pot of porridge that had been sealed for a long time in the warehouse, the same style of porridge shop, and the porridge cooked in one pot could be used as a staff meal for all the employees of Taifeng Building, and it was estimated that they would not be able to eat a single meal. Jiang Feng found two pots and decided to cook two flavors of porridge.

After thinking about it, Jiang Feng decided to return to the original beauty and make eight-treasure porridge and preserved egg and lean pork porridge.

A sweet porridge, a salty porridge, which happens to be familiar and good at it, can be eaten as a staff meal for everyone, and if you can't finish it tonight, you can continue to eat it tomorrow. It is not only money-saving, convenient and delicious, it is simply a staff meal that capitalists dream of.

Jiang Feng cooked the porridge deliciously.

While cooking porridge and playing with mobile phones, the time passed quickly. Seeing that the two pots of porridge were about to be completed, Sun Jikai's side was also in the finishing stage, and people in the back kitchen began to come in one after another to prepare for work. When everyone saw Jiang Feng appear in the back kitchen, they thought that he was relaxing and coming back to work today to change his taste.

"Brother Feng, are you going to put your name backstage tonight?" asked Sang Ming.

"No need, just put the pure meat wontons backstage, I won't cook tonight. Jiang Feng refused.

After chatting with Sang Ming for a while, Jiang Feng suddenly felt a lot of psychological comfort when he learned that today's noon staff meal was made by Jiang Jian and unfortunately overturned. even began to comfort Sang Ming, telling him that he would get used to it while eating.

He and Zhou Shi are quite used to it now.

was chatting, Sun Jikai's Bazhen seafood soup was ready.

Jiang Feng has never eaten or seen this dish, the name is a little familiar, it may have been seen on the menu of Jubaolou before. In the afternoon, when he watched Sun Jikai cooking, he felt that this dish was very troublesome, mainly in the processing of ingredients. Bazhen seafood soup naturally uses eight kinds of ingredients, most of which are seafood, and there are some vegetable accessories that are not used much.

Soups are similar but ever-changing, and there are only a few ways to make them, but the changes in ingredients and processing methods can make huge differences in taste.

Sun Jikai's Bazhen seafood soup is very good from the appearance, and the presentation is particularly excellent, there are two abalone in the whole pot of soup, all of which are placed on the bright side to make the ingredients very rich.

The taste is also OK, there is the umami of seafood, the overall taste is relatively heavy, but not greasy, slightly salty, and there are actually a lot of ingredients in the soup. If you want to eat this soup as a stew, add an extra bag of vermicelli.

It is a good soup that can be sold at a good price.

Jiang Feng, a capitalist who lost money at noon, expressed his affirmation.

After the soup, it's almost time for the evening business to begin.

Although Jiang Feng is not currently working in Taifeng Building, there are still art academy students and artists who insist on coming to Taifeng Building every day with the idea of what I found missing, eating at noon and at night, getting fatter and thinner, and the inspiration is still missing.

When these humble people saw the familiar pure meat ravioli on the menu, their hearts boiled.

Even the cold wallet seems to have a hint of warmth.

There was a small amount of agitation in the lobby of Tai Fung Building, which was a little inexplicable to some of the new diners, such as the freshman college students at a certain table.

Although freshmen usually do not start school on September 1st, there are always schools that like to card September 1st, especially the colleges and universities that set military training before the start of school and compress everyone's precious summer vacation in the third year of high school, so that everyone can feel the warmth of college military training in advance.

The happy summer vacation is gone, the hard military training has come to an end, and the next day is the day of the beginning of school that I don't know if I am happy or not, and the confused freshmen decided to come out for a meal.

Small restaurant with no money, big hotel with money.

Zhang Qian is obviously the one who is rich, and she proposed to come to Taifeng Building for dinner.

"Qianqian, is that mask you said good to use? I feel like you are indeed a lot whiter than the previous two days, what brand? Give me the link, did you buy it online or did you find someone to buy it on your behalf?" The classmate and roommate who shared the table with Zhang Qian kept staring at Zhang Qian's face.

"I just bought it online, I'll send you the link now. Zhang Qian said.

"I want it too, I want it too. Another girl responded positively and was looking at the menu, "Sissi, what are we going to eat later?" The two chefs you and we talked about are not on the menu, do you know who makes the better dishes?"

Zhang Qian thought about it, didn't think about it for a while, reached out and asked the girl opposite to give her the tablet, and looked at the menu by herself.

"Eh, Ji Xue is also here, if it weren't for the same name, then the dishes she made would actually be quite delicious. Zhang Guanghang is also there, his dishes are also delicious, not only are his dishes delicious, let me tell you that he is handsome!" Zhang Qian looked surprised.

"What kind of ordering method are you? Isn't it ordering what we want to eat? How do you order by person?" The girl sitting next to Zhang Qian was speechless, and looked at the menu.

"Squirrel fish, point squirrel fish, squirrel fish is delicious!"

Zhang Qian began to order, and when she ordered, she saw the pure meat wontons, and also saw the name of the chef.

Zhang Qian turned the tablet over to the person opposite, and pointed to Jiang Feng's name: "Isn't there Jiang Feng, look, this wonton is made by him, why did you just tell me that he was not on the menu today." ”

The girl who was in charge of ordering the food before was also very innocent: "I didn't have it when I watched it just now, there are no wontons at all." Does he have any other dishes?"

Zhang Qian read the menu from beginning to end and shook her head.

"Then let's order wontons and try them!" The girl opposite was very hearty.

When it was time to place an order, Zhang Qian decisively placed an order for wontons.

Zhang Qian was a little disappointed: "I originally wanted to drink eight-treasure porridge, but it turned out that I didn't even have eight-treasure porridge, only wontons." ”

As soon as she said this, the other three people laughed, and one of them couldn't help but say directly: "I want to drink eight-treasure porridge and go back to school to drink, but I really can't go to the porridge shop outside to drink, two yuan a bowl, three yuan a bowl, five yuan a bowl, ten yuan a bowl, no matter how expensive it is, it is twenty yuan a bowl, what kind of eight-treasure porridge do you want to drink, why do you come to this kind of restaurant to drink porridge?"

"You don't understand, Jiang Feng's eight-treasure porridge is very delicious, and it is completely different from what is sold outside. ”

Zhang Qian stretched out her hand and gestured in the air, trying to compare the size of the casserole Jiang Feng used on the day of the competition, but she didn't remember it because of the long time gap.

"It's probably that big, maybe bigger and deeper. You don't know, it's only forty minutes, and he uses such a big casserole to cook eight-treasure porridge, I suspected at first that he might fail, but the porridge he cooked was particularly delicious, and one of the judges on the scene drank several bowls in one go. I've never drunk porridge like that, and then I went to his shop to drink porridge again, and his porridge with preserved eggs and lean pork was delicious, anyway... Anyway, he cooks porridge very well, and you only need to drink it once and you will definitely understand that feeling. "Zhang Qian's face is full of it's really delicious, but I just can't describe it.

The other three girls were already discussing what to order.

Zhang Qian: ......

Zhang Qian didn't feel anything at first, but she was a little disappointed, but now she suddenly wanted to prove to the three of them that the eight-treasure porridge made by Jiang Feng was really delicious.

Zhang Qian beckoned to a waiter.

Hu Li walked towards her: "Hello, is there anything you need?"

"That one I want to ask, it's that Chef Jiang Feng's name is not on the menu, but I saw his pure meat wontons. So, do you have eight-treasure porridge today?"

Hu Li: ?

Although she didn't understand what Zhang Qian wanted to express, she probably heard that Zhang Qian should want to drink eight-treasure porridge.

"Wait a minute, I'll help you ask about the kitchen. Hu Li walked quickly towards the kitchen, and happened to bump into Jiang Feng, who walked out of the kitchen happily, preparing to go home to lie down and relax.

"Little boss. Hu Li stopped Jiang Feng.

"Huh?"

Jiang Feng stopped.

"That's right, just now a customer at a table asked if we have eight-treasure porridge in the store today?

Jiang Feng was shocked, thinking that this guest was really fateful, he cooked eight-treasure porridge but didn't put it on the shelves, and he wasn't going to take it out for sale. Porridge is a staple food that occupies stomach capacity and can't be sold at a high price, Comrade Wang Xiulian doesn't like this staple food very much, Taifeng Lou rarely sells porridge now, Jiang Feng used to only cook it occasionally, and he sold it when he was fated.

I didn't expect fate to come so quickly.

"Which table of guests ordered? I just boiled the eight-treasure porridge and now it's ready, you ask Sang Ming to serve a bowl, and sell it at the previous price of porridge." Jiang Feng said.

"It's the one that the guests over there ordered, the table of the four little girls. Hu Li pointed to Zhang Qian's table.

Jiang Feng is a little short-sighted now, and he can't see people's faces clearly when he is too far away, in fact, he can't see Zhang Qian's face clearly at all and don't recognize it. But Zhang Qian recognized Jiang Feng at a glance and waved at him excitedly.

Jiang Feng was a little confused, so he could only walk towards Zhang Qian. It took a few steps closer to see Zhang Qian's face clearly, and it took me thirty or forty seconds to realize that this girl with long hair was Zhang Qian who lost to him in the Good Taste Cooking Competition because of porridge.

"Zhang Qian?!" Jiang Feng was a little surprised, in his memory, Zhang Qian should still be in high school in City A, but soon he reacted that Zhang Qian should have come to Peking to go to college after the college entrance examination.

"You go to college in Peking?"

"Yes. Originally, I wanted to come to your store for dinner, but I had been in military training some time ago and didn't have time to come. I watched "Zhiwei" on New Year's Day this year, you guys are really amazing, everyone has an interview, Taifeng Building is still the cover, my dad said that you must be much more powerful now than when you competed last year. Zhang Qian opened her mouth to be a rainbow fart.

"Fortunately, it's a little better than last year. What dishes did you all order today?Do you want me to recommend it to you?" Jiang Feng was also interested.

"We ordered four of your pure meat ravioli per head. ”

Jiang Feng: ......

He felt that he should go, but he had cooked the pure meat wontons and then came out, judging by the time, Sang Ming should have been helping to divide the bowls and bring them out to the table.

"This, wonton that might not suit you a bit, or you should consider something else. Jiang Feng's smile gradually distorted.

"But we've already placed an order. ”

Saying that Cao Cao Cao arrived, Hu Li came over with four bowls of pure meat wontons.

The small bowl contained a terrible-looking ravioli, which smelled of despair.

"Don't eat it yet, the wontons are a little hot just out of the pot, you can cool for two minutes before eating. "What Jiang Feng really wants to say is that you wait for me to leave before eating.

The next table was already crying.

Four: ?

"By the way, what did you study? Oh, I haven't asked you which school you are. Jiang Feng decisively changed the topic and decided to politely greet him with a few words.

"I went to a foreign Chinese university and studied Chinese. Zhang Qian said.

Jiang Feng: ?

Although it doesn't feel like there's anything wrong, it's weird to say it together.

"Eh, the eight-treasure porridge is also here, I won't bother you. This porridge is just right for me, you can eat it while it's hot. Jiang Feng resolutely slipped away, and when he walked to the door, he deliberately glanced back, and sure enough, Zhang Qian and the four of them had already begun to cry.

One of the girls, who was particularly agitated, was already lying on the table and was crying out loud in grief.

Jiang Feng sighed.

Hey, it seems that from this moment on, he has lost a small fan.

He didn't want that either.

I only hope that Zhang Qian will not turn into a fan.

Thinking of this, I happened to see Ji Yue coming down from the second floor, and turned back to tell Ji Yue.

"Do you see the table?" Zhang Qian remembered?" Jiang Feng pointed to Zhang Qian's table.

Ji Yue shook her head in confusion, obviously because she was old and had a bad memory.

"It's the one I compared to the Good Taste Cooking Competition, the one who cooked eight-treasure porridge together. ”

Ji Yue hadn't remembered it yet, but she probably knew that there was such a person.

"They ordered meat ravioli at that table, and they're crying. Please wait for them to finish crying, go to them and explain that this wonton is a feature of our store, don't let people misunderstand, they are all here for the first time. ”

After speaking, Jiang Feng slipped away.

Ji Yue: ?

？？？
