Chapter 69: The Change of the Imperial Court [Ask for Collection Recommendation]
It's past eleven o'clock in the evening.
The main leaders of the three major areas of Delicious Street, Fengyu Street, and Food Court gathered in a palatial private room of a restaurant to hold a celebration banquet.
The table is filled with delicately shaped dishes.
It is said to be a celebration banquet, but in fact, there are only four people in the huge private room.
the leader of Delicious Street, Fang Hao;
the leader of Fengyu Street, Lin Yanlan;
the leader of the food court, Zhou Xiong;
Of course, Xu Ke from the imperial court is naturally indispensable.
"Come, let's toast Xiao Xu together, he is the biggest hero today." Fang Hao and the others are all around forty years old, and it is reasonable to call Xu Ke, who is in his early thirties, Xiao Xu, and it sounds kind enough.
Lin Yanlan and Zhou Xiong naturally had no opinion, and took a drink from the wine glass.
"Brother Zhou, you don't have to be polite, I'm just entrusted by someone." Xu Ke didn't dare to hold it up, and hurriedly returned a glass to everyone.
This week, Xiong is the hair of his top boss Zhang Cheng, and Zhang Cheng is one of the chefs of the imperial court.
In other words, he came to help today, and it was entirely because Zhang Cheng was inconvenient to come forward, so he arranged for himself to come over.
"Xiao Xu, when this time is over, I must praise you in front of Zhang Cheng's kid, but I can't let him bury the talent." Zhou Xiongda smiled meaningfully.
"That is, Xiao Xu's cooking skills have opened our eyes today, and it turns out that cooking can be so pleasing to the eye." Lin Yanlan smiled and agreed.
"I've been cooking in the kitchen for almost 20 years, but now I don't know what a gap is, alas." Fang Hao pretended to sigh, but in fact, he raised Xu Ke very high and gave him enough face.
"How can I be as powerful as you say." Xu Ke was thrilled when he heard this, and poured a glass of wine to Zhou Xiong.
Among the three, Zhou Xiong's words were the most true.
"I went to the old street today, there is really no business there, most of the restaurants are grinding foreign workers, I am afraid that in less than ten days, they will have to close." After three rounds of drinking, Fang Hao got down to business.
"With Xiao Xu's help, the results are clear at a glance." Lin Yanlan smiled, "It's just that I don't quite understand, why the long-dead old street has suddenly risen recently?" ”
"I inquired and heard that there was a chef from a restaurant called Chef Next Door, which attracted a lot of attention." Fang Hao said.
"The chef of a fly restaurant dares to call himself a chef, so what are we Xiao Xu? God Chef? Zhou Xiong smiled noncommittally.
"Brother Zhou, don't praise me." Xu Ke's cheeks were hot.
It's just a matter of talking about these things outside, but if they are placed in the imperial court, they will definitely be laughed off by those guys.
In fact, in addition to Chef Lei Tianming, there are three head chefs and seven head chefs under the head chef in the imperial court, and the cooking skills of these people are really amazing.
And he, Xu Ke, is just one of the seven chefs, one of the ten stir-fry chefs under Zhang Cheng.
To put it more bluntly, he can only be regarded as a middle and lower level among the ten stir-fry chefs, otherwise he would not have had time to help Zhang Cheng personally.
"I think that little kitchen next door must have its own characteristics, so it's so attractive." Xu Ke shifted the subject.
"I want to laugh when I talk about features." Fang Hao snorted, "There is a staff member standing at the door pretending to be Zhu Bajie, all the dishes are ridiculously expensive, I heard that at the beginning, an ordinary fish-flavored shredded pork will be sold for 56 copies!" But then it seems to have been boycotted by customers, and it was never sold again. ”
"How does it taste?" Lin Yanlan doesn't think there's anything wrong with pretending to be Zhu Bajie, after all, the times are developing rapidly, and the food industry is fiercely competitive, so it is reasonable to come up with some strange tricks and tricks.
"People who have eaten it say it's delicious, but no one can say one, two, or three of how to eat it." Fang Hao shrugged helplessly.
"You didn't go in and try it?" Zhou Xiong frowned.
"I wanted to, too, but I went just in time for them to close and rest, and said they wouldn't sell anything. And just two strange dishes, called Dark Star Soup and Volcanic Immortal Meat, are ridiculously expensive, and the cheapest ones are sold for 288 a piece! ”
Fang Hao smacked his lips, he didn't know what the person in the kitchen next door thought, he actually dared to set such a high price in a broken place like Lao Cai.
"In my opinion, their business will not last long, and the reason why it has become popular recently is probably due to the curiosity of the guests."
Lin Yanlan took over the conversation,
"I remember that the owner of a restaurant used to have a very bad attitude, because of this, but it became inexplicably popular, and all the guests who went to eat would be unhappy if they were not scolded by him, saying that they couldn't experience the characteristics!"
"Hahaha, I've heard of it." Zhou Xiong laughed.
"Actually, from a business point of view, this is not a method." Xu Ke considered his words, "But if you don't have solid strength, you won't be able to last long." ”
"That's right." Zhou Xiong raised his glass, "So in the next few days, it will depend on Xiao Xu, I estimate that in a week at most, the old street will collapse." ”
"A week?" Xu Ke was so frightened that he didn't dare to raise his glass, "Brother Zhou, didn't Brother Zhang Cheng tell you that I can only help you for two days?" ”
Two days?
Zhou Xiong's faces were shocked.
Two days can't change something substantial!
If you don't take this opportunity to completely resist the old street, there may be a possibility of a resurgence in the future.
"This.." Zhou Xiong frowned, "In the past, it was at least five days for him to come over to help, so this time I didn't ask at all, Xiao Xu, is there something wrong with the imperial court recently?" ”
Xu Ke drank a few glasses of wine, and his courage grew, and he lowered his voice and said, "Since Chef Lei Tianming took office, the atmosphere within the imperial court has changed. ”
"What's the change?" Zhou Xiong and others became interested.
"In the past, when that person didn't leave, everyone only thought about how to complete the work at hand every day, but now, in addition to completing the work, they also have to think about how to choose a side!"
"Choosing sides?"
"After all, the imperial court was developed by that person, so many veteran chefs are still used to the previous way of doing things, so in their work, they often contradict Chef Lei Tianming and disobey orders."
Xu Ke continued to lower his voice, "I heard Brother Zhang Cheng say that he fully supports Chef Lei now, so he can't have a handle in the hands of others." ”
"Is it a big chance to win?" Lin Yanlan asked.
"The chances of winning are quite big, because those who oppose Chef Lei are only a minority, and they don't have a deep background, so it's a matter of time before they leave."
"Actually, I've always had a question, what kind of person was that mysterious chef in the past?" Fang Hao opened Zhou Xiong and Lin Yanlan's curiosity.
"Don't be surprised to say it." Xu Ke took a deep breath, "That's a kitchen demon who is ten years younger than me!" ”
What the?
So young?!
Zhou Xiong and others fell into a deep shock.
