Chapter 32: Culinary Meeting
Three days are fleeting, and the Yundu Culinary Conference, which has attracted the attention of gourmets and foodies in China and even the whole world, is about to begin.
This conference is very different from the past!
Because the countries made a bet before the conference, and the prize of this bet is the face of the country. Moreover, the conference also summoned reporters from major international media, and if they lost, they would be disgraced internationally.
In three days, Ye Qi almost ate and lived with Wu Zihan. Of course, they do not live together, but immerse themselves in the back kitchen of Manjiang Building every day to learn the way of cooking.
After inhuman training, Miss Wu's ability to control the heat has finally improved, which makes Ye Qi, a master who is not a master, feel so relieved!
In front of Yundu Ambassador Hotel~~
"I said, Master Ye Qi, why do you have to use the kitchen utensils you brought, aren't those guys in the back kitchen of Manjiang Mansion easy to use?"
Wu Zihan looked at the brand-new kitchenware that was moved down from the small truck, and was very puzzled, didn't he say that the older the kitchenware was, the better the cooked food? For Mao Yeqi, this guy wants to use the newly bought?
It really made her feel so anxious!
"With them, I naturally have a reason. You just have to do your job and don't ask so much. Of course, Ye Qi would not tell her the truth.
These kitchenware were all bought by him in the system mall the day before, and it cost a full 80,000 mall coins, which made him feel distressed and didn't sleep well all night.
Early this morning, he called Wu Zhengtao to bring in a small truck to transport these kitchen utensils directly to the conference site.
"Let's go, let's go in and see what those international chefs are like." Ye Qi asked people to move the kitchenware to the competition hall, and then pulled Wu Zihan to the rest area.
The rest area for the participating teams is on the fourth floor of the hotel, which was originally a small private room for individual or family gatherings, but now it is a resting place for participants from all over the world.
"Oh, it's really a gathering of all nations, and there are all kinds of people."
In the aisle between the two rows of boxes, there are people of strange skin tones, hair colors, and strange costumes coming and going. Ye Qi is very much like a wild boy running out of a ravine, his expression and movements are extremely exaggerated, which is comparable to a certain Skar actor.
"Master Ye Qi, your festival has fallen, pick it up quickly." Wu Zihan lowered his head and whispered behind his ass.
"Hehe, this kind of thing is also to be dropped on different occasions. Here, in fact, it's the same whether there is a festival or not. ”
Ye Qi's face was full of indifference, and he continued to evaluate the international friends who came and went: "Wow~~ Look at that person, he still holds himself so tightly on a hot day, and he is not afraid of realizing prickly heat." ”
Wu Zihan looked up, but a person with an unknown surname wrapped in a silk colored robe with only a pair of eyes and forehead exposed, and a cinnabar mole on his forehead walked over.
When the strangely dressed man walked in front of Ye Qi, he saluted them with his hands together, and uttered an unintelligible slogan, and then hurried away.
"What did she just say?" Although Ye Qi couldn't understand the language, he could hear that the person was definitely a woman.
"Don't look at me, I don't know what she's talking about. However, it sounds like an Indian language," Wu Zihan said uncertainly.
"India? I didn't expect even Ah San to come to this conference. Ye Qi couldn't help but sigh.
"This time, they have come to our country to smash the field, it seems that it is necessary for them to see the essence of our five thousand years of Huaxia, right, Master Ye Qi?"
After all, Wu Zihan is still young, and the first thing that comes to mind is the righteousness of the famous clan. Unlike her second uncle, a businessman, the first consideration is his own interests, and then the interests of the country and the famous clan.
"Hahaha, you Huaxia drops are not good, our Dahe clan is the strongest drop."
It may be that Miss Wu spoke a little louder, and she was actually heard by some aliens passing by. I saw three short men with an average height of only 1.6 meters, with an aunt's towel wrapped around their heads, a bright red aunt in the middle, a mustache on the top of the person, and tall slippers made of wood on their feet, babbling and chewing their tongues in stiff Chinese language.
"Hey, are these people the legendary minute-by-minute seppuku clan?" Ye Qi pretended to be surprised.
"Yaga, we are the samurai of the famous river clan, and seppuku is the spirit of bushido, you don't understand." The short man who took the lead looked very angry, as if Ye Qi had crossed his family's surname.
"Hehe~~ It seems that the spirit of this seppuku must be very good." Ye Qi raised his eyebrows, and his tone was a little yin and yang.
"Hahaha~~ It's good to know that it's great, we, Amaterasu-sama's people, will always be the best."
Maybe it's the cultural difference, this seppuku can't even tell the difference between praise and ridicule, Ye Qi can only shake his head and sigh that it's terrible to be uneducated.
"A cry~" Finally, the man said a bird language and left with two of his men.
"Poofha~~ Cut seppuku, you can figure it out, hahaha~~" When the three short ones walked for a long time, Wu Zihan finally couldn't help laughing.
"Hey~~ Pay attention to the image of a lady, everyone is there for you to be a little monkey." Ye Qi tugged at the corner of her clothes and said weakly.
"You are the little monkey, you are a little monkey in the whole building." Miss Wu Zihan gave Ye Qi a standard hygienic eye angrily.
But it didn't take a few seconds for Nizi to react, this Nima was in public, and the old lady's festival was gone.
So, he hurriedly covered his face and pretended to be a little transparent, and by the way, he pulled Ye Qi to the rest room allocated by the organizer and escaped.
************************
"Welcome guests from all over the world to the 6th Yundu Culinary Conference, which is co-founded by the Yundu Chefs Association, food critics and news media from all over the world, and has been established for 18 years."
At the competition site of the State Guest Hotel, this banquet hall with a total of 1,200 square meters is richly decorated and extremely luxurious. Except for the slightly smaller area and no dragon chair, other aspects are no worse than the Jinluan Palace.
Around the venue, media reporters from various countries had already set up long guns and short cannons to explain the expression of being ready for battle as if they were facing a great enemy.
"Who's that old man? That's a lot of nonsense. ”
I believe that every student who has experienced the years of students has a deep experience, every week a flag-raising ceremony, or the school sports meeting, or any form of commendation ceremony. The school leaders will take turns to speak, and each leader will come for more than ten or twenty minutes, and finally the principal will come out to summarize and present.
Every time that happens, an urge to open the table and smash the bench arises in Ye Qi's young mind.
However, today's Ye Qi is no longer the year with the 2b surname, no matter how impatient he is in his heart, he can steadily suppress that impulse in his heart.
"Don't be bad old man, bad old man, he is Kong Yunqing, the president of the Yundu Chef Association, and he is also one of the judges of the conference. Don't listen to his long-winded speech, he is also a master of Zhejiang cuisine and Huaiyang cuisine, and he is a first-level figure with my grandfather. When Wu Zihan spoke, the application was full of worship.
You must know that Miss Wu is best at the two major cuisines of Zhejiang and Suzhou, and now seeing the highest achievers of these two cuisines is of course the same as fans meeting stars.
