"Hey, why am I so unlucky!" Jingwen lamented at the bottom of a staircase.

Jingwen, a 21st century otaku, has read a lot of books, and is known as an encyclopedia who knows a little about everything. However, he, an otaku, is not willing to be an otaku. Jingwen only has a high school degree, because he likes too many miscellaneous books, and he reads some books that have nothing to do with the usual exams, so he abandons the normal courses. As a result, he failed the college entrance examination three times in a row, and finally entered society disheartened.

However, Jingwen wanted to find a job, but no one was willing to hire him, a guy who only had a high school degree and was too lazy to get grades. Now it is difficult for doctoral students to find a job, let alone a high school student? As for the fact that he said that he had read a lot of miscellaneous books, he was taught a mess by those employers. Employers need people with a skill, not someone like them who is full of miscellaneous learning but not thoroughly proficient.

Jingwen once told the human resources manager of the employer that Zhuge Liang doesn't want to understand how to read, so he is a prime minister. However, this remark was criticized by the human resources manager of the employer, and finally Jingwen went home in shame and did not come out again. Jingwen had to write novels online to make a living, but he was just the kind of material that received full attendance. Then add some social benefits, so that he barely survived. However, life has been miserable.

This time, he didn't know what was going on when he slept, and when he woke up, he found that the scenery around him had changed. Becoming the appearance of ancient times, Jingwen found that this was the Tang Dynasty, and it was about to reach the Tang Dynasty during the Zhenguan period. It's still the ninth year of martial arts, and Li Shimin has just ascended the throne not long ago, and he hasn't changed the yuan yet! Jing Wen still wanted to get ahead in this society, but he found that his identity was very sad.

"How did I become a cook?" Jingwen lamented again.

The children of other people's families have not become the descendants of high-ranking officials, or they are also the talents of ordinary people. But Jingwen has crossed over to become a cook, which is a bit sad.

Although the ancient chef still belonged to the rank of commoners, his status in the rank of commoners was the lowest. Chefs are looked down upon by many people, and no matter how good the dishes are, they can't be on the top of the charts. Even, ancient scholars had a famous saying that a gentleman is far away from cooking, which compares the chef to a non-gentleman.

"But it's okay, I'm the imperial chef!" Jingwen said again.

Although Jingwen is a chef, he is the most high-end of the chefs, and he is the imperial chef who specializes in cooking for the emperor. The imperial chef who cooked for the emperor had a much higher status than ordinary cooks, and even belonged to the establishment of "civil servants" in the imperial court, which was a good thing that could not be imagined in later generations. Although Jingwen is not very satisfied with his status as a chef now, after all, he is also a "civil servant" of the imperial court and belongs to the iron rice bowl. This compilation is in the idea of Jingwen in later generations, and it is a good thing that you can't ask for it!

"Jingwen, Master Hu let you go!" A voice came.

"Okay, I'll be right over!" Jingwen replied.

Although Jingwen is the imperial chef, he is also an apprentice with the lowest status in the imperial dining room in the palace, but no one dares to despise him. Because he has a good master, and that is Master Hu. Chef Hu has been the imperial chef for many years, and he was the chef when Li Yuan stayed in Taiyuan. Later, Li Yuan became the emperor, and he became the steward of the imperial dining room. After that, although Li Shimin now became the emperor, it did not affect the imperial dining room. After all, in the eyes of those high-ranking officials and dignitaries, the imperial dining room was not qualified to join their political battles at all. It is precisely because of this that this imperial dining room is still very harmonious, and it will not be involved in any political turmoil, which is a blessing in misfortune.

And Jingwen was the apprentice and assistant cook of Master Hu, so his master helped him get the establishment of an imperial dining room. The position of this apprentice and assistant chef is very rare, and many people envy and hate it. Because many of the chefs in the imperial dining room started with Master Hu's assistant cook, Master Hu was also helpful, and he never left a hand for his apprentices, which made Master Hu have a high status and prestige in the imperial dining room.

"Master, you called me?" Jingwen asked.

Jingwen asked very carefully, he was afraid that this Master Hu would recognize his identity differently, so it would be miserable. If they find out that they are not the original Jingwen, then what will they do to themselves? Is it to peel the skin and cramp or ask the Taoist priest to dance the great god? That's not good! Now, Jingwen has not inherited the original memory, but after two days of knocking on the side, he has heard a piece of news, not much. So, there is still a risk of exposure!

"Xiaowen, you have been following me for fifteen years, I have taken you with me since you were infants, I and you are called master and apprentice, but in fact they are father and son. Do you know why I didn't teach you how to cook? Master Hu said.

Jingwen didn't know, but the master Hu quickly replied: "I'm afraid that you are too impetuous, and you will be proud of some skills." So, I didn't teach you how to cook because I didn't want you to be too proud. Now that you're fifteen years old and you've polished your temperament enough, I can teach you cooking formally. ”

Jing Wen hurriedly pretended to be excited and said, "Thank you, Master!" ”

Jingwen also thinks about it now, anyway, it's okay to learn one more cooking skill, and the art is not pressing! Anyway, even if you can't get along in the palace in the future, it's not impossible to go outside and be a cook for others! After the lessons of Jingwen's previous life, Jingwen knows that the most important talent in this world is the most important talent, that is, the talent with technology! As long as you have skills, even the boss may not dare to treat you well, this is the advantage brought by talents with skills.

Although I am learning cooking now, cooking is also a skill! It's not impossible to learn, Jingwen has already planned that he will never be able to read books everywhere in this life, but as a result, "not seeking to understand" has achieved nothing.

"Xiaowen! As a chef, you must first have a good knife skill, especially a royal chef. The first thing that matters in the kitchen is the knife work, not the taste. In fact, the biggest difference between an imperial chef and an ordinary young chef is not the taste, but the knife work. If you can make the dishes look good and sell, then you can arouse people's appetite, so that you can arouse people's liking. Especially the imperial chef, those big guys pay attention to pomp, so the dishes must be made distinctive, so that the big guys can have face! The emperor is even more so, and he can't lose the royal face. Therefore, our imperial chef represents the face of the royal family, and a good knife skill is very important. Master Hu said.

Jingwen was speechless, it turned out that in ancient times, there was a tradition of attaching importance to color and not paying attention to taste?
