The charity dinner that night was a complete success, and the generosity of successful people from all parties contributed to the charity of Xinghai City, which made the mayor of Xinghai quite excited, and personally shook hands with Chu Zhonglu to express his gratitude.

However, as the initiator of the hero is still subject to due sanctions, Li Qiao took the bonus salary that is obviously thinner than others, and pinched it with a sad face, according to the experience of ups and downs in the food and clothing line for many years, at least one-third less than others, Li Qiao couldn't help but step forward with a flattering smile and said: "Boss, big guy, is this salary wrong, how is it less than others, I still have a little girl at home, waiting to be fed!"

Li Qiao pointed out without a trace that he was not alone, and his life was very difficult, and he tried to arouse the sympathy of the other party! However, Xia Tanya obviously did not recover from Li Qiao's self-imposed resentment that night, and did not give him a good face: "This is the punishment, who told you to beat someone at such an important dinner, and Xiaoqiao, I will take her out to eat, you don't have to worry." ”

Damn, it's definitely a personal vendetta from the communiqué, could it be that she found out that I was stealing vegetables and opening a small stove? Or did someone tell you? Li Qiao's eyes were like torches, and the cold electricity seemed to sweep the entire kitchen, but the kitchen received a salary and counted the money, and there was a bustle of asking for a treat, and no one paid attention to Li Qiao's cold gaze, until his eyes almost cramped, but unfortunately he didn't see the reason.

Looking back, Xia Tanya had already stepped on high heels and walked out of the kitchen, which made Li Qiao quite depressed, and took the little kid out to eat and drink spicy food at every turn, and didn't even give her a five-yuan box lunch, so you little kid who eats white food, you just don't take him as a guardian in your eyes, don't blame me for being unkind when the time comes!

"Daqiao, what do you think of this year's competition?" In the kitchen, Brother Biao's several stoves are empty, no one is cooking, for this national cooking competition, Huaijiang Hotel specially gave the green light, working hours, and the provision of dishes is as satisfying as possible.

After all, this competition is held once every three years, and the participating chefs are all over the country, all kinds of famous hotels and hotels, with high gold content, and the famous hotels want to make a name for themselves, and the famous hotels are for gilding, Huaijiang Hotel is no exception, for this game is extremely important, even Xia Tanya personally spoke, after drawing up the menu, she must personally look at it, and then go to the scene, which is a great honor for her subordinates.

"I think we should make this race bigger and stronger and try to get a good place. "Li Qiao's words are the same as not saying them, nonsense, once every three years, Li Qiao happened to be staggered, and he didn't participate, let alone suggestions, and he didn't even have opinions.

Brother Biao was speechless for a while, so he had to ask Lao Xu, Chen Fatzi and others, I went back to Huaijiang Hotel to participate in a competition, because the name is not obvious, the strength is indeed a gap compared with others, and it is not surprising that it has become a countdown, but in recent years, Brother Biao has learned from the pain, tried his courage, and looked for his own shortcomings to make up for them one by one, I believe that this game will definitely not miss again.

"This competition has been held for seven or eight sessions, and the gold content is not low, and the chefs who participated in it are even more capable, and I heard that Mr. Ning Laowu, who cooperated with us, will also participate. Lao Xu's analysis is very calm, compared with Li Qiao, it is like Zhuge reincarnated, and he said: "So they are not stupid people, we should use our brains from the very beginning of the menu." ”

Speaking of professional projects, Chen Fatzi, Lao Yang, and Xiao Lu immediately expressed their opinions one by one, these are all supervisors, hot dishes, cutting and matching, cold dishes, and dim sum, the level is not low, in the end, they have participated in the competition, and they have some experience, compared to Li Qiao, who has two eyes, and the suggestions they say are more reliable.

This competition is a traditional Chinese competition, of course, innovation is allowed, but the tradition can not be discarded, the whole process is in accordance with the ancient banquet process - divided into cold dishes, cold dishes, hot dishes, dim sum, fruit plates, etc. - in the case of completing the dishes, but also to ensure that the artistic conception of individual dishes and the overall banquet story, both effort and brainpower, great difficulty, huge amount of engineering, but this competition to win the award, the benefits are naturally immeasurable, at least many restaurants in the chef industry rush to you.

And just when the contestants were discussing the dishes that needed to be prepared for the banquet, there was a sudden cough, and everyone couldn't help but stop what they were doing, but they saw a spirited old man and an expressionless middle-aged man smiling and walking in, dressed in a white Tang costume to set off the old man quite outstandingly.

Li Qiao could see at a glance that these two people were Ning Lao and Wu Jintang, and they both said that he was also going to participate in the competition, so could it be that he was here to spy on the military situation at this moment? Li Qiao suddenly became alert, and Wu Jintang, who had never had any expression, could not help but smile and greet him when he saw that he looked like a revolutionary who had sworn to die in order to keep secrets during World War II.

No one in the kitchen cared about this action, but Ning Lao was quite surprised, this kid didn't have any ideas except cooking, and he had no interest in communicating, but he took the initiative to greet others at this moment, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

However, the old man had never seen any scenes, so he just smiled, and said to the people in the kitchen: "Old man, just come to visit, don't care." ”

"Mr. Ning Yucheng, is it really you?" A burst of excited voices suddenly sounded in the silent kitchen, and I saw Brother Biao taking three steps and making two steps, looking like a Korean rice star chaser, he walked up to the old man and said nervously: "Ning, Ning Lao, I was fortunate to have your evaluation in the competition a few years ago, and I still remember it in my heart, can you sign it for me?" At this moment, she was like a big girl who was about to get married.

"I didn't expect that after so many years, there are still people who remember the name of the old man, it's really scary!" Ning Lao seemed to be used to such a scene, and he was not surprised, but laughed.

"Damn, who is this old thing, how many brushes are there, so dragging?" Li Qiao looked at this scene in amazement, subconsciously swearing in his heart, and couldn't help blurting out.

"Old thing?" The fat man Chen next to him was stunned for a moment, looked carefully at the old man in Tang costume, and suddenly opened his mouth to stuff an apple, and shouted to himself: "He, he, he...... I, I, I ......"

Li Qiao entered the chef industry, it was indeed a mistake, he didn't know much about the history of the chef world, looking at Chen Banyue, Lao Xu, and Xiao Lu next to him, one rooster crow after another, even if Li Qiao didn't know the goods, he also realized that this old thing was not small.

"Ning Yucheng, a Taishan Beidou-level figure in the Chinese cuisine chef world, I heard that his grandfather was a big man in the imperial dining room of the Qing Dynasty, and he was a well-behaved Manchu widow, Ning Lao followed his grandfather to learn cuisine since he was a child, and he was full of famous dishes that have been lost from ancient times to the present, and he has participated in various competitions and conferences at home and abroad, and he can eat his dishes, at least he is a foreign minister, a prime minister or something, and now the big cow of the state banquet in the Great Hall is his apprentice. ”

Chen Banyue finally took a breath, endured the excitement all over her body, and gave Li Qiao painstakingly popular science: "But Ning Lao retired a few years ago, I saw it in the magazine, it seems that he went to some Wu Group, Wu Jintang, it seems that he is also surnamed Wu?

Li Qiao didn't expect this old man's background to be so big, as a chef can reach this level, it can be regarded as the pinnacle of chefs! Seeing Brother Biao get the autograph at this time, he was as excited as an eighteen-year-old girl, Li Qiao couldn't help but sigh, he only hoped that Brother Biao would not be happy, and his mentality was like an eighteen-year-old ignorant girl, revealing all the secrets of his dishes!

The chefs who recognized Ning Lao's identity next to him all squeezed over to Ning Lao's side excitedly, this is a living fossil in the catering industry, even if you don't get an autograph, get a little fairy, the thing suddenly opens up your brain, with a little effort, you will be the next chef in the world!

After a while, there was a commotion in the kitchen, and Li Qiao's side was deserted, Chen Wei and the three of them didn't know the identity of this old guy, otherwise they would have thrown themselves to the ground and knelt down to beg for an autograph, but at this moment, the three of them walked to Li Qiao's side and said what Li Qiao said a few minutes ago: "Damn, who is this old thing, it seems to have a few brushes, so dragged!"

Although this old man's status is quite high, his personality is quite kind, and there are not many people in the kitchen, so he signed the names of many people and then refused with a smile, swept Li Qiao without a trace, and then smiled at Brother Biao: "You also want to participate in this competition!"

"Yes, yes!" Brother Biao hadn't recovered from the mood of the Huaichun girl, and even with Lao Xu, Chen Banyue and others, they were about to form a group of star-chasing girls, and couldn't help but answer nervously.

"Then we are opponents, and I hope we can encourage each other to get a good place in this race. Ning Lao smiled indifferently.

"I, we're not going to lose. Suddenly, Brother Biao's eyes radiated a fine light, and he finally saved some of his dignity as a man, which made Ning Lao smile approvingly, but the next moment when he saw that Ning Lao and the two wanted to leave, these people immediately turned into accompanying little eunuchs and sent them out respectfully.

In other words, the doglegs are not so professional, back in the kitchen, Brother Biao is in high spirits, pacing back and forth, a positive and high-spirited momentum brewing in his chest, like a general who is about to go to battle, unaware of the previous doglegs' behavior!

"In this game, we must win the championship and let everyone see the strength of our Huaijiang Hotel. "Brother Biao is very excited, this game is not only his own dream, but more importantly, he wants to make a good impression in front of the seniors.

Li Qiao naturally echoed loudly, if he knew what Brother Biao was thinking, he would definitely vomit three catties of blood, and then put the sack on Brother Biao's head, beat him violently, and then sink his body in the Huangpu River!
