Chapter 10: The quest is a bit weird
"Ivan, from today onwards, you will follow Chef Zheng to learn cooking skills!"
Ivan never expected that his mission would be like this.
Immediately after returning to his rented dwelling, Ivan started his first system mission.
The quest for this system is a bit interesting.
The so-called copy must be different from the existence of the real world. In order not to affect Ivan's real life, the system provides a special way of tasking, which is to switch between time and space.
If Ivan wants to enter the mission, he only needs to schedule the real time to the system, and the system will pull him into the mission copy to do the task, and once the set time is up, or there is interference in reality, the system will pull him back from the mission to reality.
And once he enters the quest dungeon, he is equivalent to sleeping in reality.
This quest is very powerful and intimate.
Therefore, as soon as Ivan returned to the dwelling, he immediately closed the doors and windows, and after a little preparation, he started the quest through the system timing.
He just didn't expect that the copy of the mission would be in Jinling at the end of the Ming Dynasty.
That's right, consciousness accurately told him that he was now located in Jinling at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and the exact time was the twelfth year of Chongzhen, that is, 1639, and the exact location was the kitchen of the Qin Mansion on the bank of the Qinhuai River.
Anyone who knows a little bit of history knows that it is located on the bank of the Qinhuai River in Jinling, which was a famous place for fireworks in the Ming and Qing dynasties.
And the Qin Tower is a famous green building on the bank of the Qinhuai River.
He was systematically arranged to learn cooking skills in a green building!
Isn't this a bit of a task?
Ivan was a little confused for a moment.
He was a little confused, was this a virtual world or a fantasy reality?
"Your name is Ivan, how old are you, and where are you from?"
When Ivan was still in a daze, the middle-aged fat man with a big belly and a greasy body who was called Chef Zheng by the steward of Qin Lou asked him to speak.
This fat man is the master of his mission.
Ivan immediately came back to his senses and began to answer seriously: "Yes, my name is Ivan, I am 24 this year, and my home is in Shangqiu, Songzhou. ”
It is said that ancient masters were very strict with their apprentices, and Ivan did not dare to slack off, so he quickly made up an identity.
If you talk about Ivan's identity in reality, he is a Hakka from Guangdong Province.
But in this era, Guangdong Province was too far away from Jinling.
Fortunately, his ancestral home is HN Shangqiu, and he happened to have just been to Yiyin Temple, and he also knew that HN was called Songzhou in the Ming Dynasty.
Chef Zheng nodded, and then asked, "Who else is in the family? Why did you go to Jinling again?"
"My parents died, and my family was in the middle of the road, so I had to come to Jinling to join my relatives, but I didn't know that my relatives couldn't find them, so I had to find a job to make a living. ”
Ivan continued to make up.
Obviously, this is a routine seen in the traversal novel.
He already understood that if he wanted to successfully complete this task, he had to find clues from his daily life, but now he had nothing to do except understand the time, place, and background, and he could only deal with it carefully.
Chef Zheng was not suspicious of this.
"Have you ever worked in the kitchen?"
Another question was thrown.
"A little bit. ”
"Oh, then you go and learn to kill chickens and fish first, and when that one is proficient, then start learning anything else. ”
Ivan: "......"
I said I knew how to work in the kitchen!
Why did you arrange for me to learn how to work on the water deck?
I have to learn how to make soup dumplings first!
Ivan was a little depressed.
In his opinion, although the task also includes the proficiency option of the water table and knife work, it can be practiced at any time, and only this soup dumpling can be learned from the master, so he attaches more importance to this one.
Now it seems that we have to go to the dry water platform first.
The so-called water table is a type of work in modern Chinese kitchens.
According to the division of labor in the modern Chinese kitchen, it is divided into seven major types of work, namely stove, cutting board, shangshi, roasted meat, dim sum, lotus, and water table.
Among them, the responsibility of the water platform is to be responsible for slaughtering all kinds of animals and scaling aquatic products.
Among the seven major types of work, the water table is the lowest position, and generally speaking, when a newcomer enters the back kitchen, this is the first job to be arranged.
Ivan is no stranger to this work.
When he first entered the back kitchen of Emgrand Chinese Restaurant to learn cooking skills, he first worked on the water platform for three months, and only after he became skilled did he switch to the cutting board, and then he made lotus.
He didn't expect that after he entered the quest, he would have to start from the water platform again.
It seems that this task is really not so easy to complete, and it is still unknown when you will have the opportunity to learn how to pour soup xiaolongbao.
Alas, let's do something when we have the opportunity!
However, what is the standard of proficiency in this water platform?
As Ivan was thinking about this question, a string of information immediately popped up in his consciousness.
[Water platform skill: 18/100.] 】
Ivan: "......"
In reality, I have been studying and practicing the water platform for three months, and now the proficiency level of my water platform skills is only 18 points?
He was a little unconvinced.
But what if you don't accept it?
The problem is serious.
He had been training hard for three months before, and his proficiency was only 18 points, so if he wanted to reach 100 points, wouldn't he have to work for a year and a half?
But the task given to him by the system is only one month to complete!
He was stunned for a moment.
Just as he was in a daze, Chef Zheng shouted at the small courtyard behind the kitchen: "Tie Niu, come here, take Ivan to learn how to kill fish, and teach him well, he seems to be a little dumb." ”
Ivan: "......"
You're just staying, your whole family is staying!
While Ivan was scolding his master on a mission, a dark-skinned, stocky young man ran out of the backyard into the kitchen.
No wonder it's called Iron Bull, this name is quite in line with this young man!
Ivan's attention was focused on the man.
"Yes, Master. ”
Tie Niu replied to Chef Zheng first, and then began to look at Ivan.
Just as Iron Bull was looking at Ivan, he and Chef Zheng turned their heads to look at the kitchen door at the same time.
The kitchen is back in the kitchen.
Ivan also looked over curiously.
Wow, what a beautiful little Lori!
Ivan's eyes were straight.
The visitor was a young woman of about fifteen or sixteen years of age, who wore a white gauze shirt and a white gauze skirt underneath, and her hair was coiled up with a hairpin, revealing her long white neck......
This elegant but slightly immature girl was dressed in snow-white, so white that she almost blinded Ivan's eyes.
He was stunned for a moment.
But he saw that Chef Zheng, who was originally serious, suddenly had a smile on his face and greeted him with a smile.
"Miss Xiaowan, you're here!"
Chef Zheng's greeting made Ivan dumbfounded again.
Little Wan girl?
Dong Xiaowan?
If it were another name, Ivan might not be so sensitive.
But Dong Xiaowan is one of the famous "Qin Huai Bayan" in history, and she has another identity, that is, one of the top ten famous chefs in ancient times evaluated by later generations.
As a chef, how could Ivan not know about Dong Xiaowan's existence?
Ivan was really dumbfounded.
The system sent him to a brothel in the Ming Dynasty to learn cooking, and arranged him next to Dong Xiaowan, what does this mean?
This task is a bit too funny!
