Chapter 389: What if I Say No?
In the next few days, in addition to attending classes, Xiaoyu is preparing for the upcoming cooking competition.
The candidates who will participate in the cooking competition with him have been decided, Shi Jianlong, Er Ya and Ling Yun.
Shi Jianlong graduated from the Chinese chef major of 'Jiangnan Chun' Culinary School, after two years of systematic study, and he is a disciple of the 'God of Cooking', he has won many awards in inter-school competitions, and his knowledge of the competition is much richer than Xiaoyu's.
Erya's culinary talent surprised Xiao Yu, and the kung fu foundation she laid since she was a child made her more comfortable in knife work, and from the current level of cooking, she has also reached a high-level level, which is already above Shi Jianlong's brothers.
Ling Yun, on the other hand, is an outlier who specializes in eating eagles.
Although other aspects are ordinary, but the skills of food carving are increasing day by day, especially after receiving the cooking experience about food carving brought to him by the 'kitchen god', he can't put it down every day, carefully studying, and the level is a thousand miles away, even Xiaoyu is impressed by his food carving.
After receiving the question from the organizing committee of the competition, Xiao Yu once convened a group meeting of the three of them to discuss what dishes his team should use.
Shi Jianlong made a suggestion, now is the fattest time for hairy crabs, it is better to make crab roe tofu, this dish can not only make the tofu ingredient become high-end all of a sudden, but also truly reflect the chef's cooking skills, and can definitely be brilliant in the competition.
Shi Jianlong's proposal was unanimously approved by everyone, Xiao Yu called Li Tou to buy aquatic products in the vegetable field on Tianlin Road, and asked him to help make some excellent Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs, Li Tou patted his chest and made a guarantee, absolutely no problem, he was preparing to go to Yangcheng Lake in person to buy a batch of hairy crabs to sell, and promised to pick out the best for Xiaoyu to send, all females have yellow, and all males have cream.
Before Li Tou's hairy crabs were not delivered, Xiao Yu and the others naturally would not be idle, they went to the nearby vegetable market to buy some ordinary river crabs, and when the four of them were free, they carefully studied this dish.
Although this crab roe tofu is relatively high-end, however, after all, it is not a palace dish, and some people in the participating teams will definitely want to make this dish, Xiaoyu They must continue to debug and improve this dish to find out the best way to reflect the flavor of this dish, so as to stand out in the competition.
In these days, Xiao Yu went to the kitchen of 'Qi Xianju' after class to take charge of the spoon and practice his cooking skills, and he was busy until the door closed, and after the door closed, he and Shi Jianlong studied the practice of crab roe tofu together.
His cooking skills have grown rapidly after this intensive practice, and he has reached 90% of the advanced level, and he is only one step away from breaking through to the expert level.
During this time, the customers who came to 'Qixian Ju' were a little surprised, although the variety of dishes on the menu here was still the same as before, but the taste was more than a little better than before, and there was a clear sense of pleasure after eating.
Diners spread the word from one to the other, and after just a few days, the business of the restaurant was much better than before.
On Tuesday, Xiaoyu received a call from Zhu Jiajia, after a day and a night of rest, fully absorbed the medicinal effect of 'Huiyang Dan', her injuries have been much better, it may be that she is not familiar with the unfamiliar environment of Tianlin, and the little girl is clamoring to come back.
Xiao Yu knew with affection, moved with reason, persuaded in every possible way, and finally said that if she didn't take care of her injuries, the wound would leave an ugly scar, which made her dispel her thoughts and continue to stay there to recuperate.
Just when Xiao Yu was working hard and preparing for the cooking competition, the underworld in Shanghai Beach set off a shock.
The big brothers of the underworld in the four districts of Jing'an, Zhabei, Luwan, and Yangpu didn't know if they had taken the wrong medicine, and they announced the dissolution of the existing gangs and merged into Han Biao's 'money gang'.
As a result, Han Biao became the chief brother of the six districts of Huangpu, Hongkou, Jing'an, Zhabei, Luwan, and Yangpu, and his power skyrocketed, and he was in the limelight for a while.
At the same time, Han Biao struck while the iron was hot, issued a crusade order against the 'Black Dragon Society', gathered all the strength in his hands, and launched a large-scale attack on the four districts controlled by the Black Dragon Society.
Just when everyone thought that there would be an unprecedented fight between the 'Money Gang' and the 'Black Dragon Society', the performance of the Black Dragon Society was shocking.
They took the initiative to abandon the three districts of Minhang, Xuhui and Putuo, and shrank all their manpower to the Laochao Changning District, which was obviously a gesture of weakness.
Han Biao drove the forces of the 'Black Dragon Society' out of the three districts of Minhang, Xuhui and Putuo in one fell swoop, not only made his reputation in the underworld skyrocketing, but also the strength in his hands was unprecedentedly strong.
If it weren't for the intervention of the police in Changning District, he would even have the intention of conquering the Black Dragon Society's lair 'Heaven and Earth' in one fell swoop and unifying the underworld on the beach, however, since the police came to say hello, he also had to restrain himself, anyway, Long Fei now has only one district in his hands, and his strength has greatly shrunk.
According to Han Biao's undercover agent in the Black Dragon Society, the Black Dragon Society's 'Flying Eagle Hall' has suffered heavy losses recently for some reason, and even key figures such as hall master Chen Hong and deputy hall master Liu Jun have also been killed.
Han Biao was naturally overjoyed after hearing this, he had recently acquired a lot of new territory, and was busy installing a large number of cronies to consolidate the territory in his hands, although the Black Dragon Society showed weakness, but it was a hundred-legged insect, and it was not stiff when it died, although the main and deputy hall masters of the Flying Eagle Hall died, but there were still many outlaws, and Han Biao didn't want to fight with them, so he put aside the matter of the Black Dragon Society for the time being, and left it to clean them up later.
As for Jin Lao, who has been cowering in Pudong, he has long since not taken that old guy in his eyes, he is too old to keep up with the situation at all, but his seniority in the underworld is there, and he used to take care of himself, Han Biao takes care of his reputation, and it is not easy to move him, anyway, as long as he dies, the 'Green Gang' in Pudong will be leaderless, and he will naturally fall into the arms of the 'Money Gang'.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's Friday again.
Xiao Yu rushed to the gate of Shanghai Foreign Chinese Academy early, last time she made Qin Lulu wait for so long, this time she was going to surprise her.
I parked my car on the side of the road, leaned back in my seat, and listened to the music on the car stereo, but my thoughts flew to the clouds.
This morning, he received a call from Lao Ma and learned some of the latest developments of the Black Dragon Society, and he never expected that the battle in the Poppy Valley would actually become a key factor in the defeat of the Black Dragon Society in the Battle of the Black Dragon.
Listening to Lao Ma's tone, there is now a pessimistic and desperate atmosphere in the Black Dragon Society, and even Long Fei, who has always been high-spirited, is now in decline, sitting in the office all day long sighing and sighing, at a loss.
Although Lao Ma is not reused by Long Fei now, as the master of the inner hall, it is still easy for him to arrange for someone to come in in the heavens and the earth, and the daily operations of the heavens and the earth are within his jurisdiction.
Song Wei can go to work in heaven and earth tonight, and she works as a waitress in a VIP private room.
Lao Ma is worthy of being old and well, he didn't ask a word about why Xiao Yu wanted to insert people into heaven and earth, in his opinion, this person is not good enough to be sent by Xiao Yu to spy on him, there is nothing wrong with this, his identity is too sensitive, if he is Xiao Yu, he will do this.
After Xiao Yu told Song Wei the news for the first time, he couldn't help but worry in his heart, was it right or wrong to introduce Song Wei to heaven and earth?
Although the current strength of the Black Dragon Society in Shanghai has been greatly weakened, their strength in heaven and earth has been greatly strengthened, and now, almost all the strength of the Black Dragon Society has shrunk to heaven and earth, this is indeed a good time to explore the intelligence of the Black Dragon Society, but this also brings great danger to Song Wei's actions.
When Xiao Yu called Song Wei, he persuaded her again, and introduced the current situation of the Black Dragon Society to her, hoping that she would dispel the idea of going undercover in heaven and earth, but she had made up her mind and could not be shaken, so Xiao Yu had to wish her good luck.
Just as Xiaoyu was thinking about his thoughts, an inopportune voice came from outside the car window.
"Hey, friend, are you waiting for Qin Lulu?"
Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, suddenly woke up from his contemplation, and looked up to see a tall boy standing next to his car.
This boy is about 1.9 meters tall, with a burly physique, wearing a set of brand-name casual clothes, and his appearance is quite sunny, and he is looking at Xiao Yu with a smile that seems to be not a smile.
Xiao Yu felt that this person was a little familiar, and after thinking about it slightly, he remembered that the last time he came to pick up Qin Lulu, it seemed that this person was standing not far away with a group of people.
"You're looking for me?" Xiao Yu vaguely felt that the other party seemed to have bad intentions towards him, and he couldn't help but be secretly wary in his heart.
The man smiled and said, "I just want to tell you that your horse has been taken by our handsome brother, so you better leave early, so as not to suffer when you get it." ”
"Brother Jun?" A sneer appeared at the corner of Xiao Yu's mouth, thinking about it, this handsome brother was the boy he saw talking to Qin Lulu last time.
"Our brother Jun is the eldest son of Vice Mayor Liao, have you heard of Vice Mayor Liao? That's a character who stomps his feet and trembles on the beach, buddy advises you to get acquainted with each other, stop as soon as possible, three-legged frogs are hard to find, and two-legged women are not there? Seeing that you have a lot of money and look good, it shouldn't be difficult to find a beautiful girlfriend, right? Why fight with our handsome brother for women? Isn't it? ”
This boy spoke seriously, and he had the meaning of thinking for him from Xiaoyu's standpoint.
The smile on the corner of Xiao Yu's mouth became stronger, "What if I say no?" ”
