Chapter 127: Cooks are not good
Li Qiang's heart naturally has an unparalleled sense of trust in Qi Zhen.
Although Jiang Yan still maintains some doubts about Qi Zhen's approach, due to Jiang Yan's own character, she will not have any doubts about Qi Zhen's judgment or decision-making at all.
This is also the reason why Jiang Yan chose to rest without hesitation after asking Qi Zhen if she was sure.
That is, Meng Ran would raise this kind of question in this situation.
Qi Zhen once again popularized the possible design mechanics of this game to Meng Ran.
"For the current mission node, it is equivalent to splitting one battle into two, which I believe you can understand."
Meng Ran nodded.
"In other words, the battle between us and Zhang Zongchang in the wine cellar can be regarded as the first stage of this battle, if we go to the City God Temple, then eighty percent will directly start the second stage of the battle, and the second stage of the battle may be more difficult than the first stage, can you understand this?" Qi Zhen asked.
Meng Ran nodded again.
"In the game, there is no gap between the first and second phases in the vast majority, and a boss suddenly picks up a certain weapon, or the combat power suddenly increases, causing the difficulty of the raid to directly increase by a notch. For example, when we faced King Xiangli, he suddenly became demonized and became difficult to match. ”
"But once there is a change of scene between the first and second phases of a battle, it means that the battle is disconnected in the middle. At this time, there is a high probability that the boss will maintain the amount of HP and status left over from the first phase and directly enter the second phase. In this case, the time between the two phases can be left for the player to level up and recover. ”
"Of course, it cannot be ruled out that when entering the next stage, the BOSS will directly return to its peak state, which is equivalent to the team fighting again."
"But either way, we should have plenty of rest and recovery here, instead of rushing to death in a daze."
"I can probably see what you mean." Meng Ran said.
"That's the biggest difference between game thinking and life thinking." Qi Zhen said.
"Always remember that before the player acts, all the plot must revolve around the player, and all the events we do have the inevitability of system design logic behind them, and these events must be for the player to serve."
"That's why you chose to stand still at this point." Said suddenly.
Qi Zhen nodded.
"But that doesn't stop us from improving our odds of winning." Qi Zhen said.
"Oh? How? Meng Ran asked.
"Let's eat first, I'm so hungry." Qi Zhen said.
Qi Zhen didn't say that it was okay, but when she mentioned the matter of hunger, Meng Ran's stomach growled.
Meng Ran's face turned red and said, "I'm hungry too." ”
Qi Zhen felt a little funny and asked her, "When you were on a mission before, would you have that kind of situation of stalking suspects, or not being discovered by bad guys?" ”
"Yes." Meng Ran didn't understand why Qi Zhen suddenly said this.
"If your stomach screamed like that at that time, wouldn't it be discovered by the target in an instant?" Qi Zhen said with a smile.
Meng Ran knew that he was amusing himself, and he was not angry, and said: "Let's put it this way, you know that when we were on a mission before, everyone would carry some small snacks, chocolates and the like with them, in order to carry out the task, we may not be able to eat a hot meal for half a month or even a month, so we can only seize all the time we can eat." ”
Qi Zhen said she understood.
The two went to the kitchen to see if they could find something to eat.
At this time, lunch time has not yet arrived, and the kitchen is busy.
Seeing Qi Zhen and the others appear here, the cook quickly put down the work at hand and said hello to the two.
"Master, is there anything else to eat?" Qi Zhen asked.
"Lunch hasn't been made yet, why don't you two wait first?" The cook asked.
"No, I'm too hungry to wait." Qi Zhen shook her head.
"There are still leftover porridge and buns in the morning, why don't you eat two bites first?" The cook asked, somewhat uncertain.
"Great, get it for us." Qi Zhen is really hungry.
Then the two of them understood how good the cook really was.
Looking at the bowl of rice cereal in front of them and the steamed buns that had been steamed repeatedly, the two looked at each other and felt that the food of Zhang Dacai's family was too bad.
But after all, they are people who have had dinner here, and of course they know that the chefs of the Zhang Mansion can't just be of this level.
So I felt in my heart that Zhang Dacai might have deliberately made things difficult.
Qi Zhen thought more, I was afraid that it wasn't Zhang Dacai who took revenge on them because of Uncle Zong.
As soon as the cook looked at the faces of the two, he knew that they had misunderstood.
He hurriedly explained the morning's events to the two of them, only hating the cook himself for not knowing these situations, breakfast was hot and cold, cold and hot, and finally became what Qi Zhen saw.
The cook said that when he got up in the morning, the faces of the hosts were not very good when they looked at breakfast, and they were afraid that their work was going to end, but could they blame themselves?
How did he know that Zhang Dacai's family was worried about the teapot, and where did he have the spirit to care about him as a cook.
In view of the fact that there is really no need to eat this kind of thing because she is hungry, Qi Zhen still chooses to wait for lunch to come out, Meng Ran doesn't care, she has never eaten any leftovers in this profession, and she really doesn't think it is difficult to eat the things in front of her.
However, since there are good ones, it doesn't matter if you wait.
Slice the chicken and cucumber, wrap the chicken in cornstarch and cook in the pot, then stir-fry the cucumber for a while, add salt to taste, add two spoonfuls of the prepared broth, and simmer over medium heat. After the cucumber slices are slightly soft, reduce the juice on high heat, and then add water starch to thicken the pot, which is the chicken slices.
Plum vegetables add soy sauce and white sugar wine to stir-fry, choose fat and thin pork belly and put it into the green onion and ginger wine to stew in the pot, wait for the chopsticks to be inserted into the meat without hindrance, take out the meat and marinate it with brown sugar soy sauce wine for a while, fry it on high heat until golden brown, slice it after cooling, put some seasonings on the meat, spread the plum vegetables, pour the sauce used for the marinated meat, steam it in the pot for half an hour, and the steamed soup is thickened and poured on the top of the button meat out of the pot, which is an authentic plum vegetable button meat.
The cook put out some of the prepared dishes in advance, which was Qi Zhen and Meng Ran's food.
…
…
The cook who cooks for the main family does not dare to be sloppy, and tastes his own craftsmanship for the old ladies every day, how many meat and vegetables are served every day, what the menu does, what dishes are used to entertain the guests, and what the people eat, these are all arranged by Uncle Zong at the beginning of the month.
It's just that the cook doesn't know, and Uncle Zong is afraid that he will never come back.
