Chapter 107: Charm and Discernment
"Your Majesty, what magic weapon are you going to give him this time?"
Yi Ya was really cunning, and asked for Lin Yi.
"I'm not going to give him this time," Li Longji said, "Since Lin Aiqing wants to be a famous character, then I will give him a little spirit, so that people will love and revere him when they see him, how about it?"
"Uh, Your Majesty, you're talking about charm, right?" Lin Yi blinked.
"Yes, in modern terms, it's glamour. Li Longji smiled, and with a slight wave of his big hand, Lin Yi suddenly shivered, and for a while he felt that his waist was a little straighter.
"Yiya, it's your turn. Li Longji turned his head and said.
"Your Majesty, are you embarrassed for me......" Yi Ya smiled bitterly.
Li Longji gave Lin Yi the charm, which played a great role in Lin Yi's fame, but the problem is that what Lin Yi is facing now is not the problem of how to become famous, but the problem of how others cause trouble and how to make trouble.
Li Longji didn't pay attention to Yi Ya's complaint at all, the portrait had returned to its original state, and he couldn't move.
"Alas, that's it, it seems that the old man has to pay some blood. Yi Ya said, "Boy, what do you think is the most important thing to be a good chef?"
"Perseverance, understanding?" Lin Yi said.
In Lin Yi's view, it is not difficult to be a chef, but to be a chef and a celebrity chef, perseverance and understanding are indispensable. For the same dish, how to ingredient, how much seasoning, and how big the heat is, many chefs know, but if you want to do this dish well, you can't do it once or twice. Every dish under the hands of a good chef has been repeated countless times, and he has enough understanding to master the combination of ingredients, seasonings, heat, knife work, and even the speed of the rice spoon, so as to achieve the ultimate taste of this dish!
"Well, that's what it takes to be a chef, but it's not the most important thing to be the best chef!"
"Hmm, what is the most important thing?" Lin Yi asked.
"The most important thing is to look at people's hearts. Yi Ya said.
"Huh?" Lin Yi frowned.
"A good chef has to have a good eye and be able to read the minds of his diners at a glance. Yi Ya said, "You have to be able to understand the current state of the diners at a glance, whether they have worked hard for a day, they are hungry, and they want to eat some staple food to fill their stomachs, or they have a leisurely day, and they are not too hungry, and they want to eat some delicious side dishes, or they are in a good mood today, and they want to eat some big fish and meat, or they are full of depression, and they can only eat a little porridge......"
Lin Yi frowned slightly, thoughtful in his heart.
A good chef should not only take into account the customer's eating habits, but also take into account the customer's physical state and mood at that time, only in this way can the customer eat as satisfactorily as possible......
"Well, let's talk about the old man's gossip. Yi Ya sighed and said, "Many people in later generations said that in order to favor the King of Qi, I killed my son and cooked soup for the King of Qi to eat, have you heard of it?"
"Hmm. Lin Yi nodded awkwardly.
"But how does the world know why I did this? That's my own son!" Yi Ya said with an indignant expression, "The reason why I did this is not because the King of Qi said in public that he wanted to taste human flesh? Even if I don't do this, there will inevitably be others who will kill people and take meat for him to eat! With my understanding of him, once he eats human flesh, he will inevitably feel that it is unusually delicious, so what should he do if he wants to eat human flesh every day in the future?"
Lin Yi was silent.
In those days, it was not a big deal for a king to want to eat a person......
"So, I killed my son and gave him to eat, and when he ate it, I cried out with the pain of losing my son, and although he appreciated the deliciousness of human flesh, he couldn't ask for human flesh from then on!" Yi Ya said, "and I have gained the complete trust of the King of Qi because of this......"
"So you later imprisoned King Qi until he starved to death, can it be regarded as avenging your son?" Lin Yi asked.
"Our purpose is not to starve him to death, but to change the monarch of the Qi country, in order to pull this inferior King of Qi from power. Yi Ya said.
Lin Yi silently pondered in his heart, was Yi Ya's approach right or wrong? Kill his own son for the sake of the people of Qi until he completely gained the Chongxin of the King of Qi and had enough ability to kill the King of Qi again?
"I don't say this to justify anything, but to tell you that a good chef must learn to read people and know their likes and dislikes, so that he can be truly recognized. Yi Ya said.
"Well, I see what you mean. Lin Yi said, "But the question is, what do you want to give me?"
"I'm going to give you a pair of discerning eyes that will allow you to see at a glance what others like. Yi Ya said.
"It's a good feeling. Lin Yi blinked and said, "But the question is, how can a pair of discerning eyes solve the problem in front of you?"
"Hehe, that's your problem. Yi Ya smiled back and said, "But I believe that with your intelligence, you will definitely be able to think of a way." ”
Lin Yi wanted to speak again, but he felt that his eyes suddenly darkened, and then he recovered, and there seemed to be no difference, and the Yi Ya on the portrait had returned to his original state and was motionless.
Yes, the greater the hope, the more difficult it is to be satisfied-Originally, Lin Yi was still thinking about getting some magic weapons or something good from the hands of the two ancestors, who knows what charm and insight he gave in the end, all of which were illusory things, and they were useless to the problems in front of him.
Come on, let's go with the old plan, although there is no complete certainty that it will succeed, but the problem should not be very big......
Lin Yi bowed to Master Siwei and turned out of the incense hall.
"Uh, Mr. Lin ......" As soon as the little girl in charge of the cashier saw Lin Yi, her heart suddenly jumped, as if she had seen an idol - although Lin Yi was also her idol, and she was a must-see in every issue of "Food", but she has seen Mr. Lin countless times every day recently, but she has never been so excited to suddenly arrive.
Well, take a closer look, it seems that Mr. Lin has become more handsome, or is he more temperamental?
"Have you called all the customers at noon?" Lin Yi asked casually.
Halfway through the call, the customers who received the call expressed their gratitude, and two of them booked a desk for the evening. The girl at the front desk said hurriedly.
"Okay, good job......" Lin Yi said casually, and went straight downstairs, leaving only the girl at the front desk looking at the back that had disappeared at the elevator entrance with a look, and her heart was pounding - obviously Mr. Lin didn't have any special feelings when he came just now, why did Mr. Lin stay in the incense hall for a while and become so attractive?
