The location of the temporary kitchen accommodation is in the back kitchen courtyard, although the area of the yard is not large, but the ground is quite clean.
At this time, Feng Shuangxi took Yan Nantian into the courtyard, and under Yan Nantian's intention, the two gradually became familiar with each other, and Yan Nantian also tried his best to find out more information from the other party.
"Elder Feng, how many years have you been in Yuelaiju?" Yan Nantian asked.
"It's been more than 20 years. ”
Hearing Yan Nantian's words, Feng Shuangxi sighed with emotion and said: "First, I worked as a temporary assistant cook for a few years, and then, I was appreciated by a spirit chef and promoted me to a formal assistant chef, and I followed that spirit chef for more than ten years. ”
"Elder Feng, haven't you ever thought about becoming a spirit chef?" Yan Nantian said.
"Of course I think about it, there is no chef who doesn't want to be a spirit chef, but I can't cultivate spiritual power, so I don't have the qualifications to become a spirit chef at all. Feng Shuangxi sighed, as if he didn't want to talk about this issue more, and his pace under his feet also sped up a little.
After a while, Feng Shuangxi stopped in front of a house, pointed to this house and said to Yan Nantian, "Little Brother Yan, this house is not inhabited yet, what do you think?"
Yan Nantian glanced at the room, now this room is sitting north and facing south, the window can shine with plenty of sunlight, and there is a small tree planted in front of the door, nodded and said:
"Yes, I like it. ”
"Let's go in and have a look, and if you think it's good, you'll live here in the future." Feng Shuangxi said.
"Good. Yan Nantian answered, and followed Feng Shuangxi into the room, the furniture inside was quite simple, and there was a layer of dust on the table, but the decoration in the room was quite new.
"How does it feel, if you're not satisfied, I'm giving you a new one. Feng Shuangxi said very kindly.
As the saying goes, 'Rather bully the white beard, don't bully the young and poor', Yan Nantian can become a chef at such a young age, either because he has a deep background, or because his cooking skills are extraordinary, Feng Shuangxi is old and sophisticated, so naturally he will not understand such a simple truth.
"Thank you Elder Feng for your kindness, this room is already very good, and the kid doesn't dare to have too much luxury. Yan Nantian said with a smile.
"Then you clean up first, I won't arrange work for you today, just remember to come out to eat in the evening. Feng Shuangxi said.
"Old Feng, the kid just passed the guò test today, and he hasn't had time to tell his family yet, so he wants to go home and make arrangements, can you see it?" Yan Nantian asked.
"Go ahead, I'll be busy with work in the future, and I won't have time even if I want to go. Feng Shuangxi waved his hand, and when he was about to leave, he seemed to remember something again, and asked, "By the way, have you seen Zhang Hengchun before, why does he want to try his cooking skills with you?"
"Elder Feng won't tell you anything, I also met Zhang Hengchun for the first time today, and I don't know why he challenged me. Yan Nantian shook his head slightly, and asked rhetorically: "How is Zhang Hengchun's cooking skills?
"It stands to reason that it shouldn't be, among the many temporary assistant chefs, Zhang Hengchun's cooking skills are outstanding, and I have heard some news that the official assistant chef that Wu Qiankun Ling Chef will choose this time is likely to be Zhang Hengchun, and you have just become a temporary assistant chef, there is no threat to Zhang Hengchun, unless you ......"
Feng Shuangxi muttered a few words, as if guessing something, the expression on his face became more and more solemn, he turned his head to look at Yan Nantian and asked, "Boy, you tell me the truth, is Wu Qiankun's spiritual chef also interested in choosing you as a formal assistant chef?"
Feng Shuangxi's words immediately woke Yan Nantian up, and after Yan Nantian conducted the test, Wu Qiankun did show his appreciation for him, but there were only six people present at the time, and he didn't remember that Zhang Hengchun was there.
Seeing that Yan Nantian was silent, Feng Shuangxi was quite surprised in his heart, and felt that his conjecture should be true, which made him look at Yan Nantian even more.
"Boy, you don't have to think too much, this competition may not be an opportunity for you. Feng Shuangxi comforted and said.
Hearing Feng Shuangxi mention the cooking competition, Yan Nantian's eyes twisted, and he said tentatively: "Old Feng, this time the competition, I don't know what you arranged?"
"Boy, I said before that I wouldn't reveal it, so you don't need to ask, but if I were you, I would be familiar with the ingredients in the kitchen first, no matter what the content of the competition is, it is still inseparable from these. Feng Shuangxi said.
"What Elder Feng meant, I understand. Yan Nantian arched his hand and said.
......
Not far from the courtyard of the 'Yue Dining Room', Zhang Hengchun walked around the door of the courtyard, his eyebrows were furrowed, his face was gloomy, and he glanced at the door of the Yue Dining Room from time to time.
Although it was a challenge put forward by Zhang Hengchun, the pressure he faced was no less than that of Yan Nantian, and once he lost to Yan Nantian in tomorrow's competition, he would completely lose face.
However, the huge ** who became an official assistant chef made Zhang Hengchun have to take risks, but fortunately, he was quite confident in his strength, and he didn't think that he would lose to Yan Nantian.
Just when Zhang Hengchun was pacing back and forth, looking a little anxious, a man walked out of the Yuedianfang, who was Liu Qiming, the official assistant chef of Yuelaiju.
"Senior Brother Liu, you're here. Although Zhang Hengchun is older than Liu Qiming, Senior Brother Liu is willing.
"Why are you here, what's the matter with me?" Liu Qiming looked around and asked lightly.
"Senior Brother Liu, I came here to ask you for a favor. Zhang Hengchun said as he took out a silver ticket from his sleeve and handed it to Liu Qiming quietly.
Liu Qiming didn't refuse, took the other party's silver ticket, also hid it in his sleeve, and asked rhetorically: "If there is anything, if it is within the scope of my ability, I will try to help you." ”
"Senior Brother Liu, junior brother has already met Yan Nantian today, but he didn't expect the other party to be so young. Zhang Hengchun shook his head slightly, with a wry smile on his face.
"Why? Look at your dejected appearance, you are ready to give up your qualification as an official assistant chef to him. Liu Qiming snorted coldly and said.
"Of course not, I'm not going to give this opportunity to anyone. Zhang Hengchun muttered and continued: "I have challenged him, and I am ready to compete with him in cooking, as long as my cooking skills can surpass him, I believe that Chef Wu will choose me." ”
"Cooking competition?" Hearing Zhang Hengchun's words, Liu Qiming snorted lightly and said, "It's a shame that you think of it." ”
"Senior Brother Liu, could it be that you have a better way?" asked Zhang Hengchun.
There are faster and easier ways, as long as he finds someone to injure Yan Nantian, he naturally has no chance to be promoted to officially help the cook, but this is not glorious, Liu Qiming naturally will not mention it, but just said perfunctorily:
"Well, that's a way to do that, how are you going to let me help?"
"I hope you can watch the game tomorrow, support me for a while, and then help me say a few kind words in front of Master Wu. Zhang Hengchun said.
"You have a big good calculation, once you win the competition, it proves that you are better than Yan Nantian's cooking skills, plus your qualifications are deeper, there is no reason for the master not to choose you, otherwise, it will definitely chill the hearts of many cooks." Liu Qiming said.
"It depends on Senior Brother Liu to mention more. Zhang Hengchun said with a smile.
"I can promise you this, but have you ever thought about what to do if you lose the game?" Liu Qiming asked rhetorically.
"How is this possible?"
Zhang Hengchun showed a disapproving look, he didn't think about this at all, and said, "I've been a chef for half my life, how can I lose to a sixteen-year-old boy?"
