CH.240 Respective Difficulties

In the end, Kohei honestly bought a French dictionary and learned the language while learning cooking at Lanji.

The first month was really hard for Kohei, and in order to master French as soon as possible, he almost always carried a dictionary, and even the dream words he said were French words.

A normal dialogue with the French was a problem that Kohei had to solve when he came to Paris.

Whether the teacher is teaching in class or reading a textbook, a solid command of French is required. If the language is not enough, everything is not to be discussed.

In addition, some common nouns, such as ingredients, kitchenware, dish names, etc., Kohei also has to memorize them one by one. Coupled with the competition in Lanji, it is indeed more fierce than Yuanyue, which makes Kohei suffer.

He often had to study for three or four hours after returning to the dormitory to digest what the teacher had taught that day.

Fortunately, Zheng Ke's French is good, and he can solve Xingping's language difficulties and give Xingping a respite.

After a month-long transition period, Xingping gradually adapted to this rhythm, so he made a request to Zheng Ke - he wanted to work in a restaurant in his free time, so that he could improve his French faster.

"How about 'SHINO' S'?" Zheng Ke immediately thought that Kojiro Shinomiya was Kohei's master, so he asked.

"I want to go too, but my French is too bad now, if I go to the star restaurant 'SHINO' S', wouldn't I be scolded to death?"

Zheng Ke looked at Xingping with a depressed face, a little surprised.

In his impression, Xingping has always been the kind of person with relatively big nerves, but this time, he is so careful, which makes him have a lot of changes in Xingping.

However, there were few restaurants connected with Zheng Ke, and in the end he could only introduce Xingping to the "quiet town".

Absolon welcomed Kohei very much, because with Kohei's cooking skills, there was no problem at all in working in the "Land of Tranquility". All he lacked was verbal communication.

And Absolon had also studied for half a year in Yuanyue before, and his originally clumsy Japanese became unusually fluent. So, he can also act as Kohei's French teacher.

With Absolon's help, Kohei will not have a problem communicating with other employees.

At first, Absolon placed Kohei in the kitchen.

On the one hand, because the people in the kitchen are all employees of the "quiet town", Kohei can learn the language that chefs often use, and they don't have much to worry about the conversations between them, and on the other hand, Kohei has very good cooking skills and can help a lot.

After Kohei was able to communicate with the other employees, Absolon placed him in a restaurant as a waiter to hone his communication skills with the French.

This period of time was the most painful moment for Xingping, but his character of not admitting defeat still made him persevere. Although the vocabulary is still lacking, simple communication with guests is no longer a problem.

However, this is not to say that Kohei has solved the problem of language. In fact, the lack of vocabulary still causes him a lot of difficulties, and the most direct consequence is that Xingping's written test results have been in the bottom few of the grade - a lot of time is wasted reading questions, and the shortcomings of being able to speak and not write have made his answer accuracy drop a lot.

Compared to Kohei's hardship, Erina's situation is much better.

She was already good at French food, so French and English were passable, plus she lived with Catherine and Aynelle, and Aenil didn't know Japanese, so the three of them could only communicate in French.

In the first month, Erina only barely kept up with Lanji's progress, but after she adjusted to Lanji's life, she gradually began to show her strength, much to Anil's surprise.

Erina's performance in Lanji was expected by Zheng Ke, and Kohei's struggle in Paris did not exceed his previous expectations.

Of course, this is not to say that Erina's talent in cooking is higher than Kohei's.

The reason for this result is actually related to the experience of the two people, as well as the dishes they are good at.

At the end of the day, Kohei's specialty is popular cuisine, which is incompatible with Paris, a city full of starred restaurants.

Kohei didn't care, and after an extremely painful run-in period, he gradually began to enjoy life here.

Seeing that the two of them gradually adapted to Lanji, Zheng Ke finally breathed a sigh of relief and gradually focused on his own affairs.

The third-year students of Lanji Academy are not easy, and even, in Zheng Ke's opinion, it is more tedious than the work of the Ten Masters of Yuanyue.

The third year of the high school is the highest grade in the blue world, so the eight third-year students, as the seniors of other grades, are responsible for part of the school affairs, mainly some auxiliary work, similar to the role of the student council.

In addition to these, there are two exams in a semester in which eight students rate each other. This requires that Zheng Ke must use Western food for the exam, otherwise, others can use "it doesn't feel good" to deliberately lower his score.

However, for Zheng Ke, it is not a simple matter to cook Western food that wins over others.

The people who can enter the third grade are all the best in the blue world, as strong as Absolon (probably), and there is no way to advance to the third grade, so it is not easy for Zheng Ke to raise Western food to the same height.

At this time, Zheng Ke has to face a choice, how to use the "two hearts".

Now, Zheng Ke only uses the "two hearts" to assist in mastering the "realm", rather than binding it to a certain cuisine. But he wasn't sure if he would be able to use the realm after he bound the "two hearts" to the French food.

This doubt made Zheng Ke hesitate for a long time, and after nearly two hours of thinking, he decided to combine the "two hearts" with French food.

If he can't get Lanji's graduation certificate, then there is no point in him transferring to Lanji.

On the contrary, if his French food can reach the level of Chinese cuisine, even if there is no "realm", he can make dishes that are no less than "realm".

When Zheng Ke made this decision, he held the risk of declining his cooking skills again, however, when the "two hearts" were bound to French food, he unexpectedly found that he could still use the "realm".

After thinking about it again and again, Zheng Ke could only attribute this possibility to the fact that after a large number of long-term "realm" exercises, he unconsciously mastered the "realm". In addition, he also thought of another possibility, that is, he had already found the right way before, but he had never been able to enter the "realm", and under the tandem of the "two hearts", he accidentally broke through this barrier.

In any case, he can still make "realm" dishes, which is the most important thing.

In addition, the connection between "Two Hearts" and French food also brought a "negative" effect - when cooking French food, he felt a sense of rustiness, and some of his previous actions and cooking habits became particularly awkward.
