Qian Duoduo felt very tormented this week, and his appetite was particularly poor, he used to be able to eat three bowls of noodles in one meal, but now he can eat two bowls.

When Fang Yu left, he handed over the shop to Qian Duoduo and Qi Yi in a chic manner, and the two of them were moved and panicked.

What touched me was that Fang Yu actually handed over the small shop to them to take care of it like this, and was full of trust in them. The scary thing is that they are only two young people after all, and it is inevitable that they will be under a lot of pressure to be in charge of the operation of a restaurant independently.

Although Fang Yu said when he left, they could toss whatever they wanted. But what Qian Duoduo wanted in his heart was to make some achievements, brush up on Fang Yu's favorability, and open his mouth to apprentice in the future. But the difficulty of running an Internet celebrity store was much more than Qian Duoduo expected, and he underwent a great test.

The reason why "One Side Edge" has become a famous Internet celebrity store is that the key is to rely on Fang Yu's craftsmanship, Fang Yu went out, and the three signature dishes of hibiscus chicken bean curd, yellow eel jelly pot, and steamed beef in a cage had to be removed from the menu.

That's not all, although Qi Yi has a good talent, he is also very hard-working, and he has Fang Yu's careful guidance, but no matter how hard he works, he can't have Fang Yu's growth speed against the sky, and at present, he has only learned the two most basic types of noodles and kimchi in the shop.

For the new customers who come here, Qi Yi's craftsmanship is naturally remarkable, but for those old customers who have long been fed by Fang Yu, it is inevitable that they will be unhappy.

Qian Duoduo had expected this a long time ago, he explained on the reservation software in advance that the boss went out to collect wind for the development of new dishes, so as to reduce the dissatisfaction of old customers, and then in the name of the classic review of the week's big reward, the price of the dishes was cut by half, trying his best to attract new customers.

Then Qian Duoduo made some new tricks from time to time, such as the live guessing game of "the boss is not there, just buy randomly". One dish is randomly folded every day, and diners who guess right can enjoy a discount.

In this way, Qian Duoduo racked his brains, Qi Yi worked hard to support, and the two worked together to barely keep the popularity of the noodle restaurant from falling sharply.

When they saw Fang Yu returning to the noodle shop with a backpack on his back, Qian Duoduo and Qi Yi almost didn't shed tears, this time was too hard. When they saw Fang Yu before, they easily made a lot of money, but they only knew that it depended on people.

However, Fang Yu was very surprised by the performance of Qian Duoduo and Qi Yi, thinking that the small shop would be full of people after coming back, but he didn't expect it to be very lively.

Although Qi Yi's cooking skills have improved greatly after this hellish test, it is only a slight surprise for Fang Yu. And although Qian Duoduo, a little fat man, has average potential in cooking, his talent in business is beyond Fang Yu's expectations.

After praising the two of them well, Fang Yu directly took out half of this week's operating profit and gave each of them a big red envelope of 10,000 yuan to reward them for their hard work during this time. While the two were happy, they were also a little embarrassed, and secretly decided to work harder to practice their cooking skills, and strive to help Shang Yu with their real skills next time.

Fang Yu asked the two of them to go back to rest first, and sat in the hall of the noodle restaurant to meditate.

When traveling in Rongzhou before, Judge Zhong called Fang Yu to inform him that he was going to participate in the membership selection of the Culinary Association, and specifically explained the relevant matters of the selection and assessment.

Because the number of places is limited this time, the assessment will be conducted in two sessions in the form of an elimination system.

The content of the first assessment is to ask the three candidates to bring their own materials and make a dish for the five assessment judges, and the five assessment judges will score their own judges, and the person with the lowest total score will be eliminated on the spot.

This competition not only tests the candidates' cooking skills, but also the strength of the forces behind the candidates. Because of course, it is easier to get the appreciation of the judges for making precious ingredients.

Moreover, the rare non-limited theme of the assessment also wants to let the candidates play freely, in order to make the final result have nothing to say.

Because in order to ensure that they are foolproof, every player will definitely show their own housekeeping skills, and if they lose like this, then naturally there is nothing to say.

Fang Yu seriously considered that he should choose that dish to participate in the assessment in order to win the championship.

Speaking of which, although Fang Yu currently has a lot of dishes, there is still a big gap compared with the children of those gourmet families.

Fortunately, each dish is a high-quality dish, and it does not lose to those famous dishes that are widely circulated.

However, the dishes that participated in the assessment are still very particular.

Referee Zhong deliberately mentioned Fang Yu on the phone before.

The examiners of the Culinary Association are basically first-class chefs, and their requirements for dishes are completely different from ordinary diners, and the criteria for judging are not just whether they are good or not.

In front of these examiners, once the dishes have obvious shortcomings in the five elements of color, aroma, taste, shape and interest, they will be immediately discovered and eliminated. Therefore, unless they feel that their cooking skills have been perfected, most of the participants will be opportunistic and adopt another way to pass the assessment.

Since the overall atmosphere of the Culinary Association is more inclined to encourage innovation, in the previous assessments, the strict examiners will be more tolerant of innovative dishes and will have a preference for scoring.

Therefore, every few years, there will be one or two "divine dishes" that cannot be replicated and promoted at all in the membership assessment of the Culinary Association. However, the Culinary Association still does not change its style, and insists on encouraging the chefs who participate in the examination to boldly improve old dishes and invent new dishes.

In Fang Yu's hand, the most suitable thing to participate in the assessment was the Bibo Hibiscus Chicken Bean Flower. This dish is unique in its creativity and elegant mood, and there are few people who don't fall in love with it when they see it for the first time.

It's a pity that now the reputation of this dish has spread throughout Shudu, and Fang Yu doesn't believe that those examiners haven't tasted it. Maybe some of them have even tried it out themselves. Using this dish to participate in the assessment again not only has no unexpected effect, but may also make the examiner feel that he is exhausted and lacks background.

As for the other dishes, they are either without novelty or snacks in the market, even though they taste good, but they are still a little insufficient in front of those super-first-class chefs.

Fang Yu is now working hard to search for the recipes in his mind, half a month ago he experienced the life of that half-step god chef "Zhang Er" in the illusion, and he really learned a lot of dishes that have been lost, but there are some that can be considered for use.

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a few soft knocks on the door.

Fang Yu turned his head to look and saw a handsome-looking boy standing outside the door, gently knocking on the door of the noodle restaurant.

The big boy's outfit is very distinctive, with a moon-white mid-coat on the top, a three-quarter-sleeved cardigan with a strange style that looks like a Taoist robe, a pair of black shorts on the lower body, and super black printed sneakers on his feet.

Fang Yu opened the door suspiciously and asked, "May I ask what is the matter with you?" ”

The big boy asked a little shy and serious, "I'm sorry, is this a 'one-sided relationship'?" ”

Fang Yu nodded, "Yes, but this afternoon's business hours have ended, and it will be closed for the time being." ”

The eldest boy continued to ask seriously, "May I ask if you are Fang Yu?" ”

"That's right, I'm Fang Yu, are you...?"

The big boy saw Fang Yu admit his identity, his eyes lit up, and he immediately took a step back and bowed slightly:

"Fang Yujun, hello, first time we met, in Xia Tang Yunfei."
