As the venue of the 'Shijie Food & Beijing City Exchange Meeting', the entire long street is crowded with people and bustling. And all the restaurants on both sides of this long street are also full of friends.

The restaurants on this street are the most upscale and expensive shops in the entire Sijiu City. During the Shijie Food Exchange Conference, in the back kitchens of each family, in front of the stoves one by one, there were top famous and famous chefs from all over Shijie.

Therefore, after the menu of the restaurant has been changed, the price has been even higher. Even if it is a cafeteria specially set up for middle-class consumers, the entrance fee is quite expensive, and the entrance fee is quite expensive.

Because the chef in charge is worth the price!

Just like a shijie-level chef like Mr. Tao and his apprentices and grandchildren, cooking the same dish, can the price be the same?

Even these famous chefs who want to be in the limelight at this conference will not care about the gains and losses at this time, and even intend to gather popularity and make a name for themselves in the past few days regardless of the cost. Their work also has to be expensive.

Because the price drops, it will not only not benefit your reputation, but may cause unpleasant effects.

Everyone's ideas are simple, and they are very ukiworldly values.

'What does it mean that people's food is so much more expensive than yours?' It shows that people are better than you, so they are worth more than you! ’

Choose only the expensive ones, not the right ones. This kind of thinking is still very strong in today's impetuous shijie, especially in Dahuaxia, where there are many nouveau riche.

Moreover, these restaurant owners are very skilled. They know that those who can afford to come to these restaurants will not care how much the price rises.

As it said in a certain domestic film:

"These people, since they are willing to eat a plate of shredded potatoes for a hundred yuan, they won't mind if you sell this plate of shredded potatoes for five hundred yuan!"

……

Sure enough, as the profiteers and owners of these restaurants expected, even the price of the menu was nearly half higher than usual, and even now it is only more than eleven o'clock in the morning. It's not yet lunchtime, but all restaurants have more than 70% of customers!

It is conceivable that when the lunch rush reaches 12 o'clock, there are dozens of restaurants on the whole street. It is destined to be a situation where every house is full.

In the back kitchen of the Imperial Kitchen, just as the old man Tao was steaming the refreshments of the morning tea in the steaming drawer, and at the same time carefully preparing the ingredients for the 'noon dinner' in the afternoon, his apprentice, who was the executive chef of the Beijing branch of the Imperial Kitchen, suddenly ran in and ran in, and under the inexplicable expression of the old man Tao, he was pulled to a fairly clean corner.

"Big clock. Aren't you in charge of the coordination and liaison of the restaurants on this street today? How did you get to the back kitchen? ”

Old Man Tao, who was a little anxious, asked curiously before his apprentice could even out his breath.

In the traditional Chinese chef industry, especially in the court of famous chefs and faction leaders, the inheritance of master and apprentice is a very strict relationship. It is not an exaggeration to say that the master is like the father, and in terms of majesty, the master may be even better than the strict father.

So when I saw my master asking, this apprentice couldn't care about running for a while. His lungs were suffocating and uncomfortable, and he gasped and said his intention to come:

"Whew-whew, master. Something's wrong. Huh-hu-, the Chef Zhang you invited here is the Chef Zhang who boiled the mutton soup in the independent kitchen room of our store 'Jingyi' last night. Whoa-whoa-whoa-hee-huh-huh-hu ”

"Something's wrong?"

During this period of time, Mr. Tao has regarded this event as the most proud masterpiece and the most important milestone in his life.

This old man thinks: ..., as the organizer of this grand event, but also as a participant, this 'exchange meeting' will be the most glorious stage of his life.

If this year's success is held, this event can be held once a year, or once every few years. Then as the founder, as the organizer and participant of the first event, his name will be passed down forever with the holding of this event.

For the old man Tao, who is both famous and profitable, this is the name that will go down in history!

It's because Mr. Tao attaches too much importance to this event, and he can't allow it to go out of his way. I don't want the slightest change in the meantime. So much so that after hearing the apprentice's report, the old man only felt that his head was 'buzzing', and he was a little stunned for a while.

'It's over, it's over...... Something happened, something happened......

Just when Old Man Tao was a little distracted by the sudden 'bad news', his apprentice chef had already taken over his words.

"Yes, something happened. It was difficult for the people there to squeeze a needle in, and the emotions of these people were becoming more and more uncontrollable. If you don't handle it well, it's likely that something will go wrong, and something big will happen! ”

Speaking of this, Old Man Tao's apprentice thought of the crowded scene he saw on the top floor of the Imperial Dining Room after he answered Xiao Dong's call.

Under that kind of crowd density, once there is a violent temper, once someone falls down and causes a stampede...... The consequences are unimaginable.

The apprentice's words made the old man Tao, who finally barely managed to hold his mind, the first thing that came to mind was that Zhang Jin's pot of soup was really messed up. So much so that the unbearable taste annoyed the diners, so these people wanted to smash the stall excitedly under the conflict with Zhang Jin!

So, without waiting for the truth of the matter, Old Man Tao hurriedly ordered:

"Quick, find a few people, and remove Xiao Zhang's stall first! Don't let Xiao Zhang hurt ......"

"Remove the stall?"

Old Man Tao's inexplicable command made his apprentice, who had just been gasping for breath, widen his eyes, and then hurriedly dissuaded:

"Master, you can't withdraw! These people are in order to queue up to grab the soup, because there are too many people, and some people cut the queue to get into chaos, if we simply remove the stall from the bottom of the kettle, it may be even more chaotic! ”

The reason was completely unexpected, so that the old man Tao, who was still considering the follow-up treatment methods, couldn't help but stare round with a pair of eyes, and said in a strange voice as if someone had choked his neck:

"What? Is it to grab the soup? Isn't it because the soup can't be drunk, so someone wants to open a stall? ”

Old Man Tao's beloved apprentice, at this time, not only was his breath completely even, but even his previous manic heartbeat was much calmer, and his face was still in disbelief, but his speech became more and more organized:

"Yes, it's a soup grab! When Xiao Dong called me, several people who had drunk the soup rated Master Zhang's unnamed white soup as 'the freshest in the world'. Moreover, the taste of his soup is really attractive, and he almost smells a little, so he can't walk and stays. More and more people are tasting the soup because of the umami of it.

Then, after tasting the soup, it was full of praise. Since then, the deliciousness of this soup has been passed on by word of mouth, and now almost the whole street knows about it. ”

After listening to the apprentice's explanation, Old Man Tao's face suddenly became very exciting, which was exactly the same as the 'unbelievable' on the apprentice's face.

The master and apprentice were both victims of the poison of the 'murderous smell' yesterday, although Old Man Tao was a little convinced of Zhang Jin's ability to turn the smell into a delicious taste based on the 'sour pepper fish' that everyone was looking for.

However, it was hard for him to imagine that the smell that could kill people could one day become this level of umami. ..., although the old man Tao is still only hearsay, although those diners who call this white soup "the freshest in the world" are not authoritative figures, but since it can make such a big sensation, it can already be seen that this white soup is indeed extraordinary.

…………

Since it's not because the soup is too bad, but because the soup is too good, it's easy to do!

After Old Man Tao breathed a sigh of relief, his brain also regained his aura, and he methodically gave orders to this apprentice:

"You immediately notify the neighborhood defense team on standby and ask them to help come over and maintain order. Then, you go find a few more apprentices to help Xiao Dong.

Well, move another warm table over and use a warm tablecloth to make soup. ”

The so-called warm table is commonly used in the kind of fast food restaurants. The bottom is a device that is heated all the time, more than two inches of water, and the dinner plate and soup basin are immersed in it to keep warm.

Old Man Tao's meaning is to let the apprentices take a few more people to make soup, and then soak the paper bowls they make soup in the hot water of the warm table, so as to speed up the sales and shorten the time and pressure of diners queuing.

When Old Man Tao finished ordering one by one, and his apprentice was just about to receive the order to leave, the old man stopped him again:

"When things are done, you can help me get a bowl of soup from Xiao Zhang. Let's also try it, what is called 'the first freshness in the world'! ”

To be honest, although Zhang Jin's original 'sour pepper fish' convinced the taste buds of all the chefs present. Even if you don't say it on the face, you can admit in your heart that Zhang Jin's cooking skills are far superior to them, no matter how knife work, no matter how well you master the heat, no matter how you mix the taste, no matter how you create the shape.

However, if they hear that someone has put the name of 'No. 1 in the world' on Zhang Jin, this young man who is not yet young, they still can't help but feel a little uncomfortable and a little unconvinced.

Therefore, Old Man Tao asked his apprentice to make a bowl of soup for him, and he did not have the kind of careful thinking of secretly 'nitpicking'.

…………

This apprentice of Mr. Tao, as the executive chef of the Beijing Imperial Kitchen, is naturally not a straw bag when he sits firmly in the top restaurant in Beijing.

In fact, before he came in to inform Old Man Tao, he had already arranged these measures ordered by Old Man Tao.

As for why he wants to do more, that's the workplace culture of my big China. Clumsy, at least superficially, decision-making power should be handed over to the leader, and before doing something, it is necessary not only to think twice, but also to inform in advance.
