The six of them left the Collector's Guild together, and temporarily rented an uninhabited courtyard at the inn where one of them was staying, as a place for the meeting.

Then the special chef who lived here, a middle-aged man named Liu Benzai, called the shopkeeper of the inn and asked the other party to help prepare a batch of fresh ingredients and wine, which was the basis for the whole party.

"Which of us comes first?" asked the other, a chef named Qian Hao, as he glanced around at the others.

"It's up to the little sister and me to come first, it's all about throwing bricks and opening the door. Cui Ping'er, the only woman among the six and the chef and colleague that Chen Hu really knew, stood up with a smile and spoke.

It was casual and casual, and he didn't take to heart the other meaning hidden in this meeting, as if he was talking about something very ordinary.

"Ping'er, you're not a brick. Chen Hu shook his head amusefully and said happily.

As Chen Hu, who has observed Cui Pinger's craftsmanship up close and discussed with her, and knows Cui Pinger's skills deeply, he doesn't think that the dishes that Cui Pinger will come up with will be 'bricks'.

Cui Ping'er smiled and didn't say much, just stood up, turned around and walked to the kitchen.

Although the small courtyard temporarily rented for parties is a courtyard with an independent kitchen, there are only two stoves, and it is okay for one chef to cook, but it is impossible to let two or more chefs work together, so it will become the current situation, which requires a chef to go in and present his own works.

This brings us to another problem, this time the meeting is very long, and it will not end in five or six hours.

Fortunately, they have a lot of time, which is enough to consume, otherwise it may not be able to carry out completely.

"Then we'll see. Among the six people, except for the known Cui Ping'er, Chen Hu, Yu Guangming, Liu Benzai and Qian Hao, the chef named Sun Hao, who was confident, said.

"Miss Ping'er's work will not disappoint us. Yu Guangming, who is humble and gentlemanly, said sincerely.

"Come, let's drink first. Then Liu Benzai stood up, took an unopened mud seal of old wine from the side, smashed the pieces, uncovered the red cloth that separated the dust, tilted the mouth of the altar, and poured the clear wine inside into the wine glasses in front of the people present.

"According to the shopkeeper of the inn, this is the old Huadiao wine that he has treasured for three years, let's try it and see how it tastes?"

As he spoke, Liu Benzai put down the wine jar and sat down.

"It smells good, and there is an agarwood that has accumulated over time. Qian Hao's figure was a little fat, but his fingers were white and delicate, like a woman, he held the cup, pretended to smell it for a while, and said.

"Can you smell this?" Sun Hao, who was close in age to Qian Hao, was twenty-five or six years old, but his figure was two circles narrower than Qian Hao, and he looked like he was unexpectedly nourished.

"Hehe, it's not talented, it's this winemaking skill to make a living at home, so I might as well be here to cook or something, but when it comes to wine, Qian is the best to do!" Qian Hao raised his head and said confidently.

Then without waiting for Sun Hao to say more, he raised his arm, took a sip of the flower carving in the cup, and tasted it carefully.

Maybe his appearance was too bluffing, and everyone, including Chen Hu, was quiet for a while, waiting for his next words with great anticipation.

"The taste is pure and fragrant, there is no excess miscellaneous taste, the wine is pure and sweet at the same time, and the aftertaste is long, long-lasting and heavy, yes, it is the best Ludi flower carving, and it has been buried in the ground for three years, and the shopkeeper did not lie to you. Qian Hao opened his eyes, turned his head to look at Liu Benzai on the side, and said with a smile.

The latter's eyebrows opened when he heard this, and a happy expression immediately appeared on his face.

No matter who you put aside, you will definitely be satisfied and proud that you can get a professional for what you have come up with.

"Is it so exaggerated? How do I feel that the taste is similar?" Sun Hao took a sip of disbelief, still full of suspicion.

To tell the truth, the behavior of this thing was a little unpleasant, but everyone sitting here didn't say anything, just listened to what he said, and drank the wine in the glass with a smile.

"Not bad!"

"Good wine indeed. ”

Chen Hu and Yu Guangming also praised with a smile.

"Come, it's rare that we have the opportunity to sit together, let's go one. Liu Benzai, who is from the Qin State and has a heroic and cheerful personality, once again filled a glass of wine for everyone, and raised his glass to propose.

"Okay, let's go. ”

"Ding!"

Then everyone clinked glasses and drank the wine again.

Then everyone stopped drinking, and the drinking was all conscious, while slowly drinking the works of Cui Ping'er, who was waiting for the busy kitchen, while chatting with each other about what they had seen.

Of course, it is mainly based on the kitchen and ingredients, and it is also a social anecdote, which is also lively and deserted.

In this case, a faint fragrance wafts out of the kitchen.

"Do you smell it?" Although the person was a little unpleasant, but the technique was not to be said, and Sun Hao, who seemed to have a keen sense of smell, suddenly interrupted everyone's conversation and wondered.

"En?" Chen Hu shook his nose and shook his nose.

"It smells like mushrooms. Is it fresh?"

"The other one is something that smells weird. Liu Benzai frowned.

"I guess it's what she's good at. Chen Hu thought for a moment and replied in an uncertain tone.

He hadn't awakened his sense of smell yet, but he couldn't subdivide the smell in the air, not to mention, he only had theoretical knowledge of medicinal materials, but when it came to the taste of various medicinal materials after they were cooked, and what the taste of multiple medicinal materials was like after mixing, he had no impression.

"Medicinal food, I'm looking forward to it. Qian Hao's eyes lit up slightly, and he looked at the half-open kitchen door not far away and whispered.

Yu Guangming didn't speak, but his gaze towards the kitchen fully showed his curiosity.

For a while, all five of them quieted down, except for the occasional sipping of wine, and they all looked forward to Cui Ping'er's work.

Fortunately, it didn't take long, only about five or six minutes, and Cui Ping'er walked back to the round table with a plate of dishes that were suspected to be cold food.

"I've kept you waiting. This is the first dish I prepared for everyone, simmer three shreds, you can taste it. Cui Ping'er put down the plate and the chopsticks and bowls that she took out, sat down in her place, and smiled.

The mind is exquisite, even now I have forgotten the root of this dinner, which is to get together to eat and drink to get to know each other and form a friendship for the same period, followed by the dispensable invisible contest by the way, so Cui Ping'er completely implemented her previous words, throwing bricks and stones, and using a cold meal to complete her own work, while showing her cooking skills, she also set the tone for the whole banquet.

——According to the normal way of Chinese food, don't let go of the root of the banquet in order to show your cooking skills.

The other five people glanced at each other, and a few of them had a faint expression in their eyes.

Obviously, it is a loss of priority.
