Since Jiang Liping gave Chen Mo a pennant was spread by the diners at the scene, the popularity of the food house has increased a lot, and many people come here not for the Internet celebrity food of the food house, but to see the young people who have just won the Youth Cup.

This made it difficult for Chen Mo, for several days in a row, until the last moment of business, there were still people in line but failed to eat the food in the food house, and the store was about to close.

On the contrary, after reaching the extreme of a certain stage, the popularity of the explosion fell slightly because of the dissatisfaction on the Internet.

Chen Mo felt that the task of expanding the food house must be completed quickly, and the expansion was imminent.

One day, Chen Mo had just opened the door, and the three people at the front of the line surprised Chen Mo.

It was none other than the three judges at the Youth Cup.

Ni Sheng, Hong Qi, Li Rong!

It's just that Chen Mo obviously felt that the atmosphere at the scene was a little abnormal, and when he looked sideways, it turned out that there were several black-clothed men standing around the door.

Yo, it's not the chairman, and he brings bodyguards when he goes out.

"Mr. Ni, Master Hong, and President Li, we met again, are you here to eat?" Chen Mo took the initiative to greet the three of them.

Although his food house already has some reputation, the fact that these three people can deign to come does surprise Chen Mo.

"Chen Mo, you're welcome, the three of us were invited. Ni Sheng, who was standing first, took the initiative to say.

"Come on in. After Chen Mo finished speaking, he beckoned the 18 people at the front of the line to order food first.

As soon as she entered the door, Li Rong laughed, making Chen Mo a little confused.

"Chen Mo, I heard that during this time, you have moved the champion dishes to the menu?" Li Rong took the initiative to ask.

So that's what happened.

"Yes, that's right, Peking duck and stinky tofu casserole. Chen Mo immediately nodded and replied.

"That's great, since I finished eating the stinky tofu pot you made in the finals that day, I, Mr. Ni and Master Hong have never forgotten it. ”

After Li Rong finished speaking, Ni Sheng and Hong Qi both laughed.

"Chen Mo, that's it, Peking duck and stinky tofu pot, two roast ducks, two stinky tofu pots. Ni Sheng ordered food for everyone.

"I also want a mapo tofu. Li Rong said, "I'm from Sichuan, and I heard that the mapo tofu here is very authentic, so I want to try it." ”

"Yes, that's good, mapo tofu, two portions too. Ni Sheng said again.

"Okay!"

Chen Mo recorded the dishes ordered by the first batch of diners one by one.

When recording, Chen Mo found out that there was a stranger who was smiling all the time, who came with Ni Sheng and the others, but the whole process of ordering food, from beginning to end, did not speak.

Half an hour later, Chen Mo put all the dishes ordered by everyone on the table, and then came to the four of them under Ni Sheng's greeting.

"Chen Mo, I have to say, these dishes you cook are really good, it is very rare to be able to practice cooking to this extent at your age, even if we are in Jinling City, I am afraid we can't find a few young talents like you. Ni Sheng put a high hat on Chen Mo.

Hong Qi and Li Rong nodded again and again, Hong Qi wrapped a roast duck roll, swallowed it in his mouth, and when he was still chewing, he picked up a piece of lotus leaf cake and rolled another flavor. Li Rong ate the stinky tofu pot spoonful after spoonful, fanning the heat with her hands in front of her mouth while eating, and exclaimed, "It's so hot, it's delicious."

At this time, Chen Mo noticed that the stranger had eaten a mouthful of mapo tofu, his eyes lit up, and then he nodded again and again.

Ni Sheng saw that Chen Mo noticed the stranger, and took the initiative to introduce: "Chen Mo, let me introduce you to someone." This is the director of our Jinling Food Office, we can come over collectively this time, that is, at the invitation and entrustment of the director, he, he noticed you at the Youth Cup, and specially asked the three of us to set up a line, wanting to get to know you. ”

Chen Mo thought that this director had a big enough face, and he directly called all three judges, and it seemed that he was very eager to know himself.

Director Ren is not tall, with a kind face, a little chubby, and a swimming ring on his stomach, but he has long hands and feet, and he should be in good shape when he is young.

Director Ren took the initiative to stand up and introduce himself: "Boss Chen, hello, I am Ren Xing, director of the Jinling Food Office, I am very happy, I am honored to meet a young man like Boss Chen, that... I came this time, especially to invite three leading figures in the Jinling food industry to come with me, in fact, I have something to discuss. ”

Chen Mo thought that the other party's name was "willful" as soon as he heard the name, but the other party immediately explained, it was a happy "Xing", it seems that many people have misunderstood his name.

Hearing that the other party came because of something, Chen Mo muttered in his heart, don't come to something that is difficult to do but can't refuse.

As the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, Chen Mo has just won the championship, and trouble has come, which is the last thing Chen Mo wants to see.

Ren Xing looked at the other three, Ni Sheng glanced at Chen Mo and nodded to Ren Xing.

The other party prepared a little before he said to Chen Mo: "Originally... I'm too embarrassed to talk about it, but I've talked to the three judges and they all think you're the best candidate. ”

As soon as he heard that this matter needed to be discussed by the four bigwigs before making a decision, Chen Mo felt that this matter must not be simple.

"Three years ago, for nine consecutive years, we in Jinling have held a culinary exchange activity for Chinese and foreign young people every year, in order to promote young chefs in Jinling to learn and exchange with their peers from the top countries in international cooking, so as to improve the cooking level of our young people. However, for a number of reasons, this activity has not been carried out as scheduled in the last three years. This year, this activity has resumed, but the candidate has not been determined, I, as the recommender of the candidate, has been looking for an outstanding young chef in Jinling, originally wanted to let Master Hong's disciple Tan Yu to participate, but after this Youth Cup, I think Chen Mo, your performance is even better, when communicating with Master Hong, Master Hong also thinks that Chen Mo you are more suitable to participate in this exchange activity, which made me make up my mind, and made a special trip to invite you to participate in this Chinese and foreign youth culinary exchange activity. You... Will you participate?"

Ren Xing said for a long time in one breath, but Chen Mo understood.

Previously, this Sino-foreign exchange activity lasted for nine years, but it was suspended for three years in the middle, and this year's event started again, because it was a chef exchange in the youth stage, Jinling originally chose Tan Yu, but because he defeated Tan Yu in the Youth Cup to win the championship, coupled with Hong Qi's affirmation, Ren Xing changed his original intention and wanted to let himself participate.

Isn't it just an exchange activity for young chefs from China and abroad, it's a good event.

Seeing Ren Xing's hesitant appearance, it may be because he chose himself, which is a little hindered by Hong Qi's face, but Tan Yu has already gone out to travel, and participating in this activity by himself will not be regarded as saving Master Hong's face.

"Director Ren, I think this Sino-foreign exchange activity is a very good activity, since Tan Yu has traveled, if you want me to participate, there should be no problem. ”

Chen Mo's words not only gave Master Hong face, but also gave Ren Xing a positive answer.

But as soon as the words came out, Chen Mo felt as if something was wrong.
