The state banquet officially began, and Gao Dian got up early.

As soon as he packed up and went out, he saw Wei Qiaoyi standing outside the door, still carrying something in his hand.

"Here you go, breakfast." Wei Qiaoyi said.

"Why are you up so early? Don't sleep more in your room? Gao Dian asked.

"Enough sleep." Wei Qiaoyi said with a smile.

She didn't actually sleep enough, but just got up to buy breakfast for Gao Dian.

Gao Dian looked at her and understood in his heart.

"Then I'll go first, you wait for me to come back." Gao Dian said.

"Hmm!" Wei Qiaoyi nodded vigorously.

Then, Gao Dian took breakfast and walked outside.

The state banquet is today, and he has to prepare a lot of things in advance.

Like Gao Dian, they are actually preparing relatively late, those who are a little earlier, and people are preparing a day or two in advance.

Come to the state banquet kitchen.

Ordinary people can't come here, but Gao Dian can come in because of a pass.

Someone has already arrived in the kitchen, and the people who have come are not idle, each doing their own thing.

Gao Dian glanced at it, and his ten helpers hadn't arrived yet, but some had also come.

He beckoned to a few people and began to prepare for the preliminary work of cooking.

It didn't take long for others to arrive.

Compared to the others, Gao Dian's task is very heavy!

What he wants to do is two pastries, and the others only need to be responsible for one, which seems to be just one pastry short, as if it is not much, but the amount of each pastry is huge.

It's more than twice as difficult.

Gao Dian did it step by step, he had practiced it a few times before, and there was no problem in the process, he just needed to be more careful in the process of cooking.

Only with enough care can you stabilize and not make mistakes.

At this time, Gao Dian was cautious and focused.

He didn't stand a chance to make a mistake, not the slightest. Other people's words, on the surface, cannot be wrong, but in fact there is room for error.

Sometimes even the slightest mistake can be corrected.

But Gao Dian is different, the two pastries squeeze his time out of almost no time, so everyone else can make mistakes, but he can't.

If he makes a mistake in cooking, he will not be able to finish on time, whether he is found out or not.

There is no extra time.

This is a very difficult test for Gao Dian. If Gao Dian can pass, everything is easy to say. However, if he can't complete it, it will affect the entire state banquet.

Then, he must be the last to bear the responsibility.

Therefore, he must not be careless in the slightest and must be extremely meticulous in every step.

If you don't do this, the so-called details determine success or failure, and the taste of this pastry largely depends on how well the details are done.

Time passed slowly, everyone in the kitchen was in full swing making pastries, the time was gradually approaching, and everyone's expression was focused with a hint of nervousness.

………………

"What! Are you kidding? Old Yu glared angrily at the person in front of him.

However, the man's face was calm, and he said lightly: "I'm here to inform you, you have time to yell at me here, it's better to arrange it earlier." ”

When Yu Lao heard this, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and hurriedly walked towards the kitchen.

There wasn't just one kitchen here, and he was in a bit of a hurry at the moment.

The occurrence of emergencies made him feel that this year's state banquet was particularly unsmooth.

But there is no way, now I have to work hard to do it.

Mr. Yu came to the kitchen, and everyone was working hard to make pastries.

"Stop, everybody!" Yu Lao said loudly.

Suddenly, everyone stopped, but looking at Yu Lao's gaze, there was something unkind.

Mr. Yu is also a pastry chef, so he should know that when cooking, he should not be disturbed.

Sometimes it's just a state, and once you don't have it, the next cooking will also be affected.

It is impossible for Yu Lao not to understand, but at this moment, he is helpless to disturb.

"Don't be angry, listen to me." Yu Lao calmed everyone's emotions.

This still had some effect, at least everyone's eyes softened a little.

"Everyone, I received the notice from above, the start time of the banquet is postponed by half an hour?" Yu Lao said.

Suddenly, there was an uproar in the kitchen.

"Why postpone? Isn't the time set early in the morning? Someone asked puzzled.

"yes, what should we do if we change the time like this?" The other complained.

For a heavyweight banquet like a state banquet, generally speaking, the time of the banquet is planned in advance. Here, whether it is a temporary state banquet chef or a real state banquet chef, when practicing this state banquet, they also practice according to the time decided in the morning.

Otherwise, the state banquet will not be served when it should be served, and the food will not be served when it should not be served.

Therefore, the time is relatively fixed.

Now Yu Lao suddenly came over and said that the time was about to change.

Delay it for half an hour!

This surprised them and at the same time was a little dissatisfied.

Isn't it a joke that they're halfway there, and suddenly let them delay it for half an hour?

If before the cooking started, Yu Lao came over and told everyone that the meal would be delayed by half an hour, then they would definitely not be dissatisfied.

It's easy to postpone it for more than half an hour, but it's okay to start production later. Not even to postpone, even in advance, they can do it.

But all of this is premised on the premise that before the cooking officially begins.

Now that cooking has officially begun, it will be difficult for them to do it again.

You must know that they are a whole, and the cooperation between each other is very fragile, and once the time changes, it is extremely easy to cause the cooperation between everyone to break down.

Let's not talk about the problem of cooperation, it is not okay to stop for half an hour in the middle of the way.

The time it takes to make pastry is only that long, and if you miss this point in time, the taste will not be the same.

Cooking, when it comes to timing, needs to be very precise.

If it's usual, it doesn't matter much, the taste is almost almost, anyway, it's not a lot worse, and the future will be okay.

But this is a state banquet, and at the state banquet, the requirements for taste are extremely high, and it is definitely not a passable degree.

Seeing the uproar below, Yu Lao felt a little uncomfortable.

When he first received this notice, his heart was the same as theirs.

But what can be done?

"Everyone, be quiet, there is no way to change this matter, the above has decided, now it's just to inform us." Yu Lao said.

"Even above, you can't ignore our feelings in the slightest, right?" Someone is dissatisfied.

"That's right, the time has already been decided, just change it? The key is this temporary change! Another disgruntled.

"It's useless for you to talk to me about this here, I don't want to change it, you think I'm willing to change the time? But the above decision is not to discuss with us, we can only choose to accept it! Yu Lao said.

When everyone heard this, although they were dissatisfied, they also closed their mouths and did not say anything more.

For this matter, they can be said to be very dissatisfied in their hearts. But as Yu Lao said, no matter how dissatisfied he is, the only choice he can now is acceptance.

"Old Yu, if time changes, what should we do?" Someone asked.

It's more important than complaining.

If the start of the table is delayed, then it means that they have to make changes in their cooking.

The ingredients have been processed, the cooking is halfway through, and it is obviously impossible to stop directly for half an hour.

The cooking has to go on!

But there is also the problem that there is a difference between pastries.

Some pastries are suitable for eating when hot, and some are suitable for eating when they are cold. Some pastries taste worse after a long time, and some noodles taste better after a long time.

Therefore, according to the original plan, some pastries that are suitable for eating just out of the pot will be left to dry for half an hour.

This half an hour is enough time to make the taste of this pastry very bad.

So, without stopping cooking, how do you change it, cook some pastries out and put them away, and put others in the back to cook.

Everyone can think of this problem, and no one in this kitchen is stupid.

But the question is, who will change? How to change?

Yu Lao was obviously also stumped by this problem, and he was a little silent.

On weekdays, he could have come by himself, but now, he doesn't have that much time in this kitchen.

There was also a kitchen that he needed to watch, and he ran down from both ends, and there was no way to change it.

I don't have the time, I don't have the energy!

The atmosphere in the kitchen was a little dignified, and everyone didn't talk anymore.

What should I do now?

They don't know either.

The ball of the problem was kicked at the feet of Yu Lao, he was the person in charge, he should come to think of this way.

But he really didn't have a good solution.

The people in front of him are temporary state banquet chefs who have no cooperation, and if they are state banquet chefs who have been working together all year round, they can still cope with this problem.

But...... They can't.

At this time, Gao Dian, who had not spoken in the crowd, stood up.

"Old Yu, I want to try." Gao Dian said.

Yu Lao frowned, looked at Gao Dian and said, "Can you?" ”

"I don't know." Gao Dian shook his head, "But I can give it a try, can I try it, I'll know after I try it." ”

Yu Lao frowned tightly, Gao Dian himself was not sure, the state banquet was not as good as other banquets, where was there any opportunity to try.

But now, he doesn't have a good solution.

What to do?

Let Gao Dian give it a try?

At this point, the other chefs looked surprised.

This young man really likes to be in the limelight, he took the initiative to ask for more noodles before, and now he takes the initiative to speak.

For this kind of behavior, the first thing that comes to everyone's mind is not admiration, but surprise and disdain.

They admit that Gao Dian's cooking skills are very good, but they are too young to dare to do anything, they have never suffered losses, and they don't know what is so powerful about it.

Zhang Hongsheng opened his mouth and had the intention to speak, but the occasion was inappropriate.

In the end, he just sighed slightly in his heart, he didn't know what Gao Dian thought, but he felt that Gao Dian was a little impulsive.

Gao Dian's eyes were calm, this incident was also sudden, and he had not made such preparations.

But now that he didn't stand up, Yu Lao didn't think of any good way, so he could only stand up.

He didn't want anything to go wrong with this state banquet, this was the first time he had attended a state banquet, and it was also the first time that he was in charge of a state banquet with two pastries.

Yu Lao finally made up his mind and said in a deep voice: "Okay! Then you can give it a try. ”

He decided to give Gao Dian this chance, and there was nothing he could do.

The worst result is nothing more than a state banquet messed up, and if you don't act now, the state banquet is no different from messing up.

Anyway, the dishes will definitely be served, but the taste is not guaranteed.

It doesn't matter, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor.

Gao Dian got Yu Lao's consent, took a deep breath and turned to everyone and said, "If everyone believes me, then listen to my arrangement." ”

Naturally, everyone had no opinions, and they all nodded and agreed to cooperate.

This made Gao Dian a little surprised, he thought that everyone would not be so cooperative.

After all, he was the youngest, and he was arranged younger than himself, and he felt more or less uncomfortable.

However, they did not show any discomfort, but were happy to cooperate.

This is Gao Dian's own thoughts.

Other times, they might not be so cooperative. But this is at the state banquet, and they don't have such a big temper.

Besides, they didn't want to take this ball in the first place, but Gao Dian took the initiative to follow, and they were very happy.

As for the arrangement of listening to Gao Dian, they are all minor problems.

Yu Lao didn't leave immediately, he stayed in the kitchen for a while, mainly to see Gao Dian's arrangement.

Here, Gao Dian's mind was running wildly, and he had to take care of his own pastry while directing the others.

It can be described as dual-minded, making his energy crazy consumption.

The change taken by Gao Dian is very simple, that is, let the pastries that can be stored for a long time be made first, so that all the time and kitchen utensils freed up will be given to the pastries that are suitable for eating just out of the pot.

It's easy to say, but it's not easy to do.

On the premise of changing some of the order, Gao Dian also has to consider whether it will affect cooking and whether there will be a scramble for kitchen utensils in the future.

He has to take all kinds of problems into account, and he also has to spare energy to deal with special situations that may occur at any time.

Yu Lao watched for a while, and everything was going smoothly in the kitchen, so he didn't stay any longer.

He had other things to do, and he couldn't afford to be here for too long.

Time passed slowly, and Gao Dian felt very tired.

This was his first attempt, making pastry while directing others.

It stands to reason that you should focus on making pastry and put your heart and soul into it to be the best you can be.

But at this moment, Gao Dian is dedicated to two purposes, and he can take care of both.

It's just that at this moment, no one else has noticed.

Doing so is not without a price, Gao Dian's energy is consumed too quickly, he estimates that he may need to delay for two days after this state banquet is over.

It's too much effort and energy.

This is still a situation where everyone is more cooperative, and Gao Dian is extremely familiar with the two pastries he makes, otherwise the result he gets by using it wholeheartedly may be unflattering to both ends.

In this way, the cooking went on hard and steadily, and many problems arose in the middle, but they were quickly solved by Takanori.
