Chapter 53: The Judge's Request
The host watched the three judges study cooking skills in full swing, and he didn't know when it would be, so he hurriedly interrupted them: "Three judges, you should give a result first, the peak business period of other restaurants is coming!" ”
"Rob!" The three judges shouted the name in unison. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"That's good! We would like to congratulate Chef Rob for winning the semi-finals of the King Chef Championship and making it to the finals. Hopefully he will perform better in the final and achieve great results! ”
System: "Congratulations to the host for passing the level, entering the semi-finals, and getting 3000 bonus XP points!" ”
"Why don't I remember posting this quest?"
System: "The Chef Championship is a chain of quests, and each victory is equivalent to completing a quest and gaining 3000 experience points. If you can win the championship, you can also get an additional low-level treasure! ”
"Damn! It's a giveaway! The system your conscience has found! ”
System: "Didn't you just get 20,005 gold coins, so you kid is also happy!" ”
Sure enough, when hiring heroes, the system hacked their own money! However, the system has always been based on the fact that the more it consumes, the more tasks it releases. There is a reward for paying, and it is understandable for the system to do this, so Rob didn't care about being hacked.
However, this time, the experience value was divided by Brother Long by half, and he was directly promoted to level 2, obtained an attack power, and upgraded his offensive skills to a high level.
The victory and defeat have been decided, and the other three who are smart have become Rob's perfect backdrop, and they hurriedly leave after receiving the prize. And Rob, who wanted to leave, stopped the old judge: "Young man, I just thought that you used to be an employee of this hotel, and you should be a person who walked through the back door." I didn't expect that the level of your steamed chicken production is far higher than that of this restaurant, and you don't need to go through the back door at all, so the old man has to apologize to you! ”
"You're right! The people at this hotel really like to go through the back door. But luckily, I'm out of here. Rob pursed his mouth and sneered disdainfully.
"Looks like you've not had a good time here before!" The old man suddenly realized.
"I was in the game just now, so there are some things that I can't say to you. I wonder if you have time to talk to me now? The old man stared at Rob and continued a little nervously.
"Of course I have time, listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years. I learned a lot from your old words about cooking. Rob nodded in agreement.
Seeing that Rob agreed, the old man's expression calmed down. He praised him sincerely: "I thought that a person like you, who excelled in cooking at a young age, would definitely be very arrogant, but I didn't expect you to be so peaceful, it's really amazing." ”
Rob listened to this compliment, but said secretly in his heart: "That's because you don't know what happened to me recently, if you had met me ten days ago, I wouldn't have even had the courage to talk to you." If you had run into me three days ago, I wouldn't have even bothered you. After these trials, my state of mind is so peaceful. ”
It's just that these can't be said, so he can only follow the old man with a smile and slowly leave the hotel, walking to a place where no one is disturbing.
"Old man, my surname is Zhang, and I run a small restaurant by myself. It's just that I've been a chef for a long time, so I'm invited to be a judge, but the real craftsmanship is not as good as you! The old man introduced himself, and then complimented Rob a little.
"Elder Zhang, are you looking for something with me?" Seeing Zhang Lao's posture, Rob estimated that he had something to ask for himself, so he took the initiative to ask.
The old man was really embarrassed to open his mouth, and he didn't want to be seen by Rob, so he no longer hesitated: "That's right, I just found out that the chicken you use for cooking is made of quite good material." I don't know where you got it, can you get one for me? ”
"You want a chicken?" Rob also thought it was a little funny.
"Making the most perfect dish is every chef's biggest dream, but making a perfect dish requires perfect technique, and perfect technique needs to be proven with the best ingredients. Therefore, no matter how the chef hones his skills, he needs to show them on the best ingredients to determine whether his skills are perfect. ”
"What's the point?" Rob knew the chef's fanatical pursuit of the best ingredients, but he didn't understand the reason, so he asked curiously.
"For the ingredients, the inferior materials have no character, they are like dead things, and it doesn't matter what the chef does. For example, if you can cook them in 10 minutes, it makes no difference if you cook them for 1 minute less or 1 minute more. ”
"The best ingredients, on the other hand, are like they have vitality, and they need to be handled with extra care, as the slightest mistake can damage them. Just like your steamed chicken, the chicken is not fully cooked one second earlier, and the chicken will get old one second later, and the chicken will only get in perfect condition if the heat is just right. ”
Rob nodded as if he didn't understand, his grasp of the heat relied on auxiliary skills to give him the instinct in his head, so he felt a little unfathomable about the heat that the old man said was measured in seconds.
But the more the old man spoke, the more energetic he became: "Those master carvers, no matter how brilliant the works created on ordinary materials are, they must also look for some excellent materials such as bloodstone and Tianhuang stone." Only by creating a perfect work on these finest materials can you prove that your skills have reached the level of a master. ”
"And I have a dish that I've been making for decades. I felt like I was at the top of my game, but I didn't have the best ingredients for me to make, so I couldn't be sure if I felt right. After I ate the steamed chicken you made today, I felt that the ingredients you used were very good, and they could fully meet my requirements, so I cheekily asked you for it. ”
After speaking, the old man looked at Rob with a wistful expression. In his opinion, although this chicken is the best, since Rob can use it in a semi-final, it shouldn't be difficult to get, so he has every hope of getting what he wants.
"Of course no problem, you're not the first. But there's a requirement, and that is that you have to make it in front of me! Rob smiled slyly and agreed.
When the old man heard Rob agree, he was overjoyed at first. Then when I heard that Rob still had a request, I was shocked again, afraid that the request would be too difficult and I would not be able to meet it. When he finally heard that the request turned out to be a watch, he finally made up his mind. It's just that his old heart can be tossed by Rob this time, and the heart attack is almost gone.
"Good, good! Don't say it's a look, even if it's to teach you, it's nothing. My little shop isn't far from here, why don't you come with me to identify the door? The old man laughed heartily a few times, and invited Rob by the way. He was now full of affection for the young man, and he was willing to teach Rob all his skills.
