Chapter 414: Wang Yuchu is difficult to ride a tiger
The good thing is that now the situation has changed, and everything is relaxed.
The so-called imperial kitchen relics dare to show their heads again, and they dare to take other people's signatures than their cooking skills.
If a few years ago, who wanted to say that his surname was Wang was the imperial kitchen, he could fight with others.
As the old saying goes, you don't get up early if you don't have profit.
Wang Yuchu, who has been half buried in the soil, competed for the shares of Bacuilou, regardless of face and reputation in his later years.
It can be said that greed is exposed.
In this regard, Lin Zhen could only give him a set of ruined packages.
A moment later, Ma Hua and He Daqing came to the private room.
Lin Zhen was chatting with Wang Yuchu.
Lou Xiao'e, Liu Yuhua, and Yu Li were also in the house.
MCA doesn't know any imperial chefs, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, as long as the master is around, let alone the imperial kitchen, it is a god chef, and he is not afraid.
He Daqing recognized Wang Yuchu.
"Yikes! This, this is the last imperial chef of the Qing Dynasty? ”
Wang Yuchu's mouth instantly skimmed, and a sense of superiority arose.
"Yes, it's the old man, you are the one who is proficient in Tan family cuisine, right? I guessed right, a man with forty or fifty years of experience. ”
He Daqing smiled, "I'm very curious, I'm a person who cooks official dishes, how did you live so nourishingly as a big chef, you must have been a low-key person in the past few years, is this the situation changed, are you ready to make a comeback?" Why don't you let your son come? ”
In the past few years, Wang Yuchu has been almost like a man with his tail between his legs, and there is no family affection between him and his children and grandchildren.
When He Daqing said this, his face turned red, and he said coldly: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, what are you talking about?" Now that we're here, let's discuss how to compare. ”
Lin Zhen said with a smile: "Okay, let's talk about winning or losing first, if you win, you can take away the signboard of Bacuilou by beating gongs and drums, if you lose, you have to work in my kitchen for a month, I will give you a symbolic salary, one dollar per person per month, and you have to bow to my apprentice for your arrogance." ”
Guan Dongqing immediately said, "Huh? No, why do you lose the signboard of the Eight Cuilou, and we have to fight the miscellaneous month when we lose? Still want to bow and apologize? ”
Lin Zhen said: "If you are afraid of losing, you can bow and apologize now and leave, it is you who come to the door to compare, and you will definitely have to pay more." ”
Guan Canghai sneered: "We won't lose, but you, hurry up and think about how to change your name in the future!" ”
Guan Canghai was not at the bottom of the day, but when he saw the two people in charge of the back kitchen, he was instantly full of confidence.
One is about the same age as himself, and he can't lift his eyelids.
He knows several orthodox heirs of Tan Jiacai, this one is not familiar, he should be an outer disciple of a certain chef, so there is no need to worry.
The other is less worried.
Looking at the age of only in his thirties, his face is even a little childish, which is quite vigorous, but he does not necessarily have much deep attainment.
Even if he has learned to cook since birth, he has only been learning for more than 30 years, how can he compare with himself?
And I heard Director Li say that this person is a cook who only started to learn after entering the rolling mill, and he has only been burning for 17 years in total, what kind of Dan can he refine!
Guan Canghai asked proudly: "After talking about the victory, let's talk about how to compare, right?" All three of us can go into battle, what about you? ”
Lin Zhen said: "My apprentice Ma Hua alone is enough, Uncle He helps him to help, I don't participate." ”
Wang Yuchu said coldly: "Hmph, what a big breath, I'll see how many catties he has later!" ”
"Alas~ It's all easy to say, but how to calculate this evaluation standard? You can't be a few of us judges, right? ”
Wang Yuchu said: "I recommend a person, in the past, he was also a prince, he tasted all the food when he was young, you don't have to worry about him being eccentric, the dishes served don't tell him who made them, he just comments in the private room." ”
Lin Zhen nodded, and couldn't help laughing: "Who is really looking for someone, you asked me to find a prince who changed his name and surname in the old society, I am really not easy to find, it depends on you, but one is not enough, at least three have to be found." ”
"Do you have any candidates for the remaining two?"
Lin Zhen thought for a while and said: "There is really a retired leader, who is also a person who understands food, I will call him later, he will be idle after retirement, and he will definitely come to see the excitement." ”
Wang Yuchu's heart moved, and he was a little worried: "What leader? If you take the opportunity to put pressure on us, it means that you are scared and cheating. ”
Ma Hua said angrily: "Why are you so careful? Our light reviewer is also alone in the private room, and we don't tell him who did it, we accept what you mention, and you don't dare to accept it when we mention retired leaders? ”
Liu Yuhua said disdainfully: "You are afraid of the pressure of the retired leader, we still hate the feudal remnants and disgusting people!" ”
"Ridiculous! How can a woman's family participate in big things? Wang Yuchu's face turned blue with anger.
"Shut up!"
Lin Zhen said coldly: "This is the manager of the Bacui Building, you don't dare to bow and apologize, don't make excuses, isn't the master you used to serve also a woman?" Why don't you dare to say such things in front of Cixi? ”
"You!"
Wang Yuchu was choked by Lin Zhen's words and couldn't refute it.
Seeing that he was about to quarrel, Guan Canghai hurriedly persuaded: "
Okay, okay, let's dissipate our anger, since it's a good discussion, there's no need to argue, so let's do it, every time you serve the judges, you have a person, we have a person, and at the same time serve the food to listen to the results, how about it? ”
Lin Zhen smiled: "Of course, this is prepared to be like this without you mentioning, and there is a third judge, do you have any candidates?" If not, I'll pick another one. ”
Guan Canghai immediately said: "I think Director Li can be the third candidate." ”
"Hahaha, whatever, he's going to come anyway, so the selection of the judges is decided, let's talk about how to compare."
Wang Yuchu said: "Since you call the Eight Cuilou, then compare eight dishes, one for each cuisine, because some dishes take a long time to prepare, let's formally compare them in three days, how about it?" ”
"Not good!"
"Huh? What do you mean? ”
"What else do you mean? Shall I play with you? Definitely not, the first is a waste of time, my restaurant still has to be open, not just to play with you, the second is a waste of ingredients, while cooking eight big dishes, can three people eat sixteen dishes? Do you check out? ”
"Huh? This, that, then how do you compare? ”
Lin Zhen said: "The competition is like a war, you have to adapt to the situation, you can't be confined to the rules, just today, what is the use of the kitchen, three dishes, both sides do it once, a total of six dishes, do you dare to take it?" ”
"Humph! Why don't you dare? In the hands of the Imperial Chef, any ingredient can bring out its unique charm! ”
"Okay, let's shake each other!"
"Shake people?"
"Just call someone, call the judges you recommended! It's only three o'clock, and it starts before six o'clock, no problem, right? ”
Small kiosk
"No problem!"
Wang Yuchu and Guan's father and son immediately went to find someone.
Lin Zhen made a phone call to the big leader's house.
Now the daily life of the big leader is to read the newspaper and listen to the reports of his subordinates, and he is really idle.
As soon as he heard that an imperial chef went to the Bacui Building to kick the hall, Lin Zhen asked him to be a judge, and immediately agreed.
"Xiaolin, I suggest that even if you win him this time, you will find a chance to compete with others next year, holding this kind of competition is a good way to promote Bacuilou, I am happy to be a judge, hahahaha......"
"Hehe, leader, we want to go together, I'll pick you up."
"No, no, I'll let Xiao Li drive me, by the way, don't tell them my identity."
"Don't worry, you're a mystery judge."
After calling the big leader, Lin Zhen called Director Zhao in the district again.
In the past few years, Director Zhao has been promoted from the neighborhood office to the district, and now mainly manages cultural publicity.
Lin Zhen called him, naturally wanting to invite reporters to come over and report on it.
Now that it has just been reformed, the people above are very supportive of those who respond to the call to move forward, and some hard-working and bold people have also been tracked and reported to play a propaganda role.
Thinking of Lin Zhen's situation, Director Zhao naturally would not refuse when he heard this, and immediately sent reporter Xiao Wu over.
Xiao Wu used to be a statistician in the street office, the one who took over Lou Xiao'e's position at the beginning, and he was also an acquaintance of Lin Zhen.
Hearing that Lin Zhen provided a good material, he immediately took his assistant and rushed to the Bacui Building with the equipment.
As soon as he saw Xiao Wu, Lin Zhen whispered: "Don't take photos of the three judges at the meeting, just take photos of cooking and them admitting defeat and bowing and apologizing." ”
"Lin Gong, can you reveal the identities of the three judges?"
"You just need to mention the mysterious judges in the report, one is the deputy director of the former rolling mill, one is the prince of the old society, and the other is a retired leader who can't help but join in the fun, do you think you can mention it?"
"Ah, that's it, hehe, let's call them the mystery judges, by the way, are they sitting together?"
"Of course not, each person has a private room, if they all sit together, as soon as my retired old friend shows up, the other two will be paralyzed with fright."
"Hahaha, the leader is really interesting, this is really here to join in the fun."
"Old and young, the older he gets, the more he looks like a naughty boy, his age is older than Jia Zhang's in the courtyard, just because he has a good attitude and his body is great."
While talking, the big leader's special car arrived, and he hurriedly entered the private room and waited.
"Xiaolin, when did it start, I'm really hungry, hahaha......"
"It's going to be right away, you can see, I'll go first."
Lin Zhen took Xiao Wu to the back kitchen, and the two sides were already preparing.
When Wang Yuchu saw that the reporter was coming, he also brought an assistant, holding a camera, paper and pen, to record the manuscript on the spot.
Frightened, Wang Yuchu chuckled in his heart, but after thinking about it, now that it has been changed, he will not go through the old accounts again, so he is no longer afraid, and he pretends to be calm.
But the more I thought about it, the more I felt as if I had fallen into a pit dug by someone else.
Look at Lin Zhen who can't hold back his smile, and Ma Hua, who is full of confidence.
Wang Yuchu's sense of superiority disappeared in an instant, and he was asked by a reporter about his motivation for competing with Bacuilou this time.
He replied to the question: "Comrade Lin Zhen, didn't you say that you wanted to call Comrade Reporter?" How? Does this have to be made public? Can't you stop it? ”
Lin Zhen said with a smile: "What do you want, it's time to pick up my signboard, and what else is there, hurry up, the reporter will ask you!" ”
