Gao Dian wanted to do something for Boss Leng, or say something in return.

But he found that he couldn't seem to do anything.

What can a dying man do for him?

Nothing can be done!

No!

Wrong!

Gao Dian suddenly thought that he might be able to do something.

He hurriedly flipped out the letter and looked at it.

At the end of the letter, it reads, "It would be nice to be able to taste the knife-cut noodles made by Mr. Shen again." ”

Can you reproduce the knife-cut noodles made by Mr. Shen back then?

As soon as this thought appeared, it took root in Gao Dian's mind!

He quickly made a decision to reproduce the knife-cut noodles made by Mr. Shen back then.

Do what you think.

Gao Dian canceled his plan to visit Boss Leng, he would not go until he made that knife cut noodles.

If you want to reproduce it, you have to know what Mr. Shen looked like when he was Nord knife cut noodles, and he has the formula, but Gao Dian doesn't know what level to reach.

Mr. Shen has been dead for many years, and it is impossible for him to taste it himself, so he can only ask the people who ate it back then.

Who has eaten it?

Gao Dian, for now, knows two.

One is Leng Sheng, and the other is Gu Tongzhou.

Of course, Boss Leng is in the hospital, and it is impossible for him to ask him. And Gu Tongzhou himself is not very familiar.

Soon, Gao Dian thought of another person, his own teacher!

If you don't decide to find a teacher.

Gao Dian felt that maybe the teacher knew.

If the teacher doesn't know, go to Gu Tongzhou and ask.

Thinking of this, Gao Dian called Wei Lianzhang.

"Teacher!"

"Calling so late, what's the matter?"

"Teacher, I do have something I want to ask you, teacher." Gao Dian said.

"You say." Wei Lianzhang answered.

"That's right, teacher, you know Shen"

When Gao Dian said this, he suddenly discovered a problem that he had been ignoring, Boss Leng kept calling Mr. Shen, but what Mr. Shen's name was, he didn't know!

Wei Lianzhang asked, "Do you want to ask Shen Shengsheng?" ”

"Who is Shen Shengsheng?" Gao Dian asked.

is also surnamed Shen, is Shen Shengsheng the Mr. Shen in the mouth of Boss Leng? Gao Dian was not sure.

"You got someone else's recipe, don't you know their name?" Wei Lianzhang said.

At this time, Gao Dian had already determined that Shen Shengsheng was the Mr. Shen in Boss Leng's mouth.

"Teacher, I really don't know, there is no signature on the recipe." Gao Dian said with a wry smile.

"But what I want to ask about is indeed Mr. Shen Shengsheng in the teacher's mouth."

"What do you ask him for?" Wei Lianzhang asked.

"Teacher, I want to ask, have you ever tasted the knife-cut noodles that Mr. Shen made back then?" Gao Dian asked.

"Tasted it, how?"

"Then teacher, if I want to reproduce the knife-cut noodles made by Mr. Shen back then, what level do I need to achieve?" Gao Dian asked.

Wei Lianzhang was silent for a while and said, "I don't know." But to be sure, not anytime soon. ”

"Why?" Gao Dian asked.

"Do you know who Shen Shengsheng is?" Wei Lianzhang asked rhetorically.

Gao Dian replied, "I don't know." ”

"Let's put it this way, Shen Shengsheng can already be called a pastry master before he dies." Wei Lianzhang said.

Gao Dian was silent, what is the level of the pastry master? It is the top level of pastry making in China.

Let's put it this way, Wei Lianzhang and Gu Tongzhou are both pastry masters, that is to say, Shen Shengsheng is at the same level as them.

Of course, Gao Dian is not very clear about the level division of the level of pastry master, but these four words alone are enough for him to be out of reach.

At least now he can't even see the back of the pastry master, let alone reproduce it.

For a time, Gao Dian fell into a huge blow. He vowed to reproduce Shen Shengsheng's knife-cut noodles, so that Boss Leng could taste this taste again before the last moment of his life.

But now he found that he couldn't reproduce it at all!

"Teacher, I see." Gao Dian said a little frustratedly.

"You have Shen Shengsheng's recipe in your hand, right?" Wei Lianzhang asked suddenly.

"Well, there is." Gao Dian should arrive.

Wei Lianzhang said: "If you really want to reproduce it, it is 100% impossible, but 80% is still possible." ”

When Gao Dian heard this, he came to a little spirit and asked, "Teacher, what should I do?" ”

"It's very simple, you just follow the recipe strictly and do it to an excellent level." Wei Lianzhang said.

"It's that simple?" Gao Dian was a little surprised.

Just need to be at an excellent level?

"It's not easy, you have to strictly follow the standards on the recipe, and you can't have the slightest idea of your own." Wei Lianzhang said.

"I can do this." Gao Dian should arrive.

"But I don't encourage you to do this, learn a pastry, you can't die to learn. If you blindly follow the recipe and don't add the slightest idea of your own, then what you make is just a copy of someone else, not your own.

In fact, it's best to add some of your own ideas in the learning process, whether it's good or bad, and it's good for you. Wei Lianzhang said.

"Teacher, I understand what you mean, but this time it's different." Gao Dian said.

Immediately, he told Wei Lianzhang about his thoughts.

After listening to Gao Dian's story, Wei Lianzhang said: "Since this is the case, you can do it." If you don't understand something, feel free to call me and ask me. ”

"Well, okay teacher, I got it." Gao Dian responded.

"Hmm." Wei Lianzhang hung up the phone.

Gao Dian regained his spirit, although there was a big gap from what he expected, but it could only be so.

He is not a pastry master, so it is impossible to completely reproduce Shen Shengsheng's knife-cut noodles, in fact, even if he is a pastry master, it is impossible to completely reproduce Shen Shengsheng's knife-cut noodles.

There are many things, Gao Dian is still unclear, he just thinks that his level is too poor.

Eighty percent of the reproduction is already the limit of Gaodian's current life.

It's not easy to be at an excellent level.

In fact, after getting the recipe for so long, Gao Dian has never reached this level.

This knife-cut noodle recipe is the most difficult recipe Gao Dian has gotten so far, and any pastry recipe he has learned before is not as difficult as this knife-cut noodle recipe.

That's why Gao Diancai has never reached the level of excellence.

He's been improving, and he's not much away from this level.

Gao Dian took a deep breath, he was ready to break through to the excellent level before the day after tomorrow.

He didn't know how much time Boss Leng had left, so he could only do it as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Gao Dian returned to the kitchen and began to practice.

After practicing, he took out the recipe and read it again to see what he did wrong, or what was different from what he did in the recipe, and he needed to correct it.

Gao Dian has a characteristic of learning, he will change according to some situations, such as according to some of his own habits, or according to the tips of the plug-in.

These changes are both good and bad for learning pastry.

The advantage is that the pastry he learns is easier to turn into his own and he is more comfortable with it.

The downside is that it's easy to take a detour, after all, many recipes are the brainchild of predecessors, and it's not better to change them at will.

Of course, these detours are not all without benefits, and after Gao Dian has taken a detour, his understanding of the noodle point will be deeper.

The same is true for knife-cut noodles, which Gao Dian made himself, and there are some subtle differences from the recipe.

Now, these differences have been changed one by one by Gaodian, and they have become exactly the same as the recipes.

Time passed slowly, Gao Dian kept practicing, and only slept for four hours at night.

The next morning, he got up early the next morning and continued to practice, and at the same time, Gao Dian no longer opened the door and no longer welcomed guests.

All his time and energy was spent on practicing knife shaving.

He wants to break through to the best level as soon as possible.

In this process, Gao Dian's own level is also slowly improving.

Gao Dian was in a hurry, which caused his spirit to be tense all the time, and he practiced with a high intensity, but he was never able to break through to an excellent level.

Originally, after such a long time, Gao Dian had almost reached the limit of a good level.

It's only one foot away from the excellent level.

This is also the reason why Gao Dian is ready to break through to the excellent level in two days, because he is not far from this level in the first place.

But now, he can't make a breakthrough and can't make a knife cut surface that has an excellent evaluation.

Evening.

After Gao Dian finished cutting noodles once, he slapped the board angrily, and the whole person propped up on the board, looking depressed.

The successive blows made Gao Dian depressed, and at the same time doubted himself.

"Am I overestimating myself?"

Gao Dian said.

In the silence of the kitchen, no one answered.

Gao Dian walked out of the kitchen and sat on a chair in a daze.

Why! Why!

It's just a kick in the door, why can't it break through!

Gao Dian questioned himself in his heart.

Soon, there was a knock at the door.

Gao Dian was in a depressed mood, and blurted out instantly: "Can't you see it if you don't open the door?" Knock what knock! ”

Outside the door, Ren Kun was stunned, why was Gao Dian so angry today.

He said loudly: "Xiao Gao, it's me, Ren Kun!" ”

Hearing this, Gao Dian stood up, pulled the door up, and said, "Brother Ren, I'm sorry just now, I didn't know it was you." ”

Ren Kun shook his head and said, "It's okay, why did you close the door so early today?" ”

When Gao Dian heard this, he said, "I didn't open the door today. ”

Ren Kun was puzzled: "Why?" ”

Gao Dian hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Ren, come in and talk about it." ”

Ren Kun nodded and walked into the store.

"Brother Ren, are you here?"

"I passed by and found that the door was not opened, and I thought something had happened, so I knocked on the door to see." Ren Kun explained, "Looking at you like this, what should really happen?" ”

Gao Dian smiled bitterly: "Boss Leng is hospitalized." ”

Ren Kun was stunned and surprised: "What! Why did you suddenly get hospitalized? ”

Gao Dian told Ren Kun about Boss Leng's illness a long time ago.

After listening to the lecture, Ren Kun said with emotion: "No wonder! I told you why the taste of the shaved noodles suddenly became so unpalatable, and it turned out to be like this. ”

Gao Dian said: "Brother Ren, you originally thought that the knife-cut noodles made by Boss Leng were unpalatable. ”

Before, Gao Dian watched Ren Kun eat all the knife-cut noodles, and thought that he didn't think it was unpalatable.

Ren Kun smiled bitterly: "How can I not feel unpalatable, it's just that I see that Uncle Leng is pitiful alone, and there are no customers in the store, if I say it's unpalatable, it will inevitably make the old man too sad." ”

Gao Dian was silent, and Ren Kun was also silent.

"Brother Ren, how did you meet Boss Leng?" Gao Dian asked.

Ren Kun said: "I used to come here to eat, and I got to know each other after coming and going. ”

"Brother Ren, are you still Boss Leng's old customer?" Gao Dian Road.

"Sort of, but I'm the only old customer like me left." Ren Kun shook his head and said, his tone was full of emotion.

The atmosphere was a bit heavy, because Boss Leng was about to pass away, and neither of them knew what to say.

"Xiao Gao, what are you going to do in the future?" Ren Kun asked.

He found a topic, and if he didn't find a topic, he would transfer it, and the atmosphere was too depressing.

"Maybe leave City B." Gao Dian said.

"Why leave? If you don't have a job, I can help you find it, I didn't know you were so good at cooking. I know a restaurant owner, and if you have used this skill, you should be able to get a good salary.

Also, if you don't want to work for others, you can also open your own shop. With your craft, you should be able to make money. ”

Ren Kun said.

"Brother Ren, I understand everything you said, but I am not a person from City B." Gao Dian said.

Ren Kun said: "City B is a very inclusive city, what if you are not from City B, you can live in City B." ”

Gao Dian smiled bitterly: "Brother Ren, you misunderstood what I meant. I mean, I'm only here for tourism in City B. ”

Ren Kun: ???

He doesn't understand, they all work in City B, this can also be called tourism?

"Why did you rent a house in the first place when you were traveling?" Ren Kun asked,

Gao Dian said: "It's not really a tour, uh, Brother Ren, you just think I'm here to travel, anyway, I only plan to stay for a while when I come to City B, and I don't plan to stay too long." Now, it's far beyond what I planned. ”

"That's right." Ren Kun nodded.

The two fell silent again.

Ren Kun looked at this store, he didn't know what he was thinking, and Gao Dian was also looking at this store.

After a long time, Ren Kun said with emotion: "I don't know what this store will become in the future." ”

"I don't know." Gao Dian responded.

"yes, no one knows. But no matter what it becomes, it won't be like this anymore. Ren Kun said.

"yes." Gao Dian echoed.

Ren Kun stood up and said to Gao Dian: "Xiao Gao, can I trouble you with something?" ”

Gao Dian asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"I'd like to have another bowl of knife-cut noodles here." Ren Kun said.

"Perhaps, this is the last bowl of knife-cut noodles I ate here, and if I go to eat somewhere else in the future, I won't have this taste."

Hearing Ren Kun's words, Gao Dian was silent for a while, and nodded in response: "Okay, I'll do it for you." ”

Ren Kun said, "Thank you, Xiao Gao." ”

"No thanks." Gao Dian shook his head and said.

He walked out of the kitchen, and Ren Kun took out his mobile phone to take pictures of the store.
