Hwacheon City, a large city in Changsheng Prefecture, although not near the sea, but this city is built on the Hwacheon River, this Hwacheon River is a relatively large river, there are dozens of villages and towns of all sizes on its river, its river fish and shrimp are innumerable, all kinds of aquatic products are even more delicious, and also intersect with other two rivers, and Hwacheon City is located on it but has achieved the name of Hwacheon Canal, but also made this big city into a trade center.

A restaurant in the city, Huachuan Restaurant, has been particularly lively in the past three days, and it can be said that it is full, because in the past three days, all the dishes are bought one and one free, that is to say, order one and two servings.

"Has this Huachuan Building changed its chef, and the current dishes are better than before, I don't know how many times. ”

"Well, the other big restaurants don't have much business. ”

"But don't you order one for two, even if it's the original taste, you will definitely come here to eat. ”

A few well-dressed people stood across the street, looked at the inside of the Huachuan Building, and spoke.

"Hehe, I know what's going on. A man said.

"Speak quickly, speak quickly. The rest of the waiting group urged.

"I heard that there were two strange people three days ago, an old man and a young man, and the old man seemed to know the boss of Huachuan Building, so he replaced the original chef that day, and the dishes ordered by the guests were made by these two people, and one person made one of the same dishes. This man told him what he knew.

The crowd was amazed at what they heard.

In the back kitchen of Huachuan Building, a junior said loudly, "A cold salad, braised pigeon, toon scrambled eggs, and braised lion's head." ”

I saw two figures side by side on the two stoves, an old and a young are all dressed in fireman clothes, cutting vegetables, stir-frying, and plating, all of which are completed by one person, and the speed of its cooking is no less than that of two or three people together, especially the two of them whose divine knife work, the people in the kitchen who look at it are amazed.

These two people are none other than the thin old man and Shang Buqi, although Shang Buqi is not good at using blades, but with a powerful divine sense, no matter how fast he cuts his hand, he will not cut his fingers, and under his divine sense, that piece of piece, every trace is the same thickness and there is no difference by half a point.

It turned out that the two of them agreed to try their cooking skills that day, and the thin old man took Shang Buqi to this Huachuan City, which was 100,000 miles away from the ten barren mountains, and as soon as he came to the city, the old man took Shang Buqi to Huachuan Building, and the owner of Huachuan Building was the chef.

As soon as the two came, the chef was very respectful and very warm to entertain the two, and the thin old man also accepted it unceremoniously, at first Shang Buqi despised the old man for being too arrogant and did not know etiquette.

Later, I learned that the boss's surname was Wang, and he was in his fifties, but he looked like he was in his thirties, he was also Chef Wang, and he would be the apprentice of this thin old man.

Since this Chef Wang is the apprentice of Old Man Ouyang, Shang Buqi thought that this Chef Wang is also a monk, so he probed with his divine sense, but the result was that this Chef Wang was just a mortal, which also made Shang Buqi feel speechless about this old man's strange behavior.

Shang Buqi also learned from the conversation between the two that the money for Chef Wang's restaurant was still from Ouyang Gong.

When Ouyang Gong said his intention this time, Chef Wang agreed without saying a word, Shang Buqi and Ouyang Gong's rule is that the guests order at will, the two of them make two, and then let the guests comment on which one is the best.

Shang Buqi looked at the menu at first, and his heart was relieved, these dishes were all ordinary dishes, similar to the dishes he made when he was helping the kitchen in the Lu Family Restaurant before, and this Ouyang Gong was not a problem with these dishes.

And some Shang Buqi may not know how to do it, but with Ouyang Gong on the side, he will watch him do everything he can, cooking is nothing more than frying, cooking and frying, etc., there is nothing difficult about cooking methods, the difficulty is the processing of ingredients and the control of fire seasonings, these are all proficient in Shang Buqi, so it is no problem to do any dishes.

This is the third day, as the sun sets, Huachuan Restaurant also sent away the last wave of guests, in the back kitchen of the restaurant, Shang Buqi sat on the stove, holding a bottle of old wine in one hand, holding a handful of peanuts in the other, and drinking with relish.

On the other side, Ouyang Gong sat on top of a pile of firewood with a gloomy expression, just lowered his head and didn't speak.

"What's the matter, old man Ouyang, you were defeated in three days, don't you still admit defeat. Shang Buqi had already stood up at this time and came to Ouyang Gong's front of him.

These days can be described as frying, stir-frying, cooking, frying, roasting, stewing, steaming, stewing, and simmering, all of which have been tried.

And Ouyang Gong did not win once in three days, when he lost on the first day, he still didn't believe it, and later he also tasted what Shang Buqi did and what he did, it was indeed Shang Buqi who was better, but what was wrong, he couldn't say, and once again he also locked Shang Buqi with his divine sense, to imitate Shang Buqi's practice, even the processing of the ingredients was the size of the general, and the plating was even more general, it was simply carved out of a mold, but in the end the guest still chose Shang Buqi to do.

This made him very puzzled, and after three days, he could only say nothing.

Ouyang Gong's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he remembered something, and suddenly regained his spirits, stood up and said, "I lost in cooking, I want to compete with you in winemaking." ”

It turned out that Ouyang Gong thought that he had seen Shang Buqi's cooking skills, but he had never drunk Shang Buqi's wine, so he wanted to win back a game from winemaking.

"Hmph~ That's just to make you struggle a little more, and the result is still the same. Shang Buqi thought to himself.

"Okay, how to compare the law. Shang Buqi said.

"Two wins in three games, one person sits in the village once, and the last game is played at will. Ouyang Gong said.

"What a sitting method. Shang Buqi wondered.

"First I specify the type and material of the sake to be brewed, and see which of us is the better at brewing, and then you specify the type and material of the wine, and the last time we play at will. Ouyang Gong said.

When Shang Buqi heard this, he thought it was quite interesting, then accompany this Ouyang old man to compare, and if he wins, he can also let him help him find a way to balance the five elements, so as to break through to the realm of body and divine powers, if the monk with body and divine powers says this, Shang Buqi may not believe it, but after all, this Ouyang old man is a great master of a realm, and his means are definitely not comparable to ordinary monks.

And just when Ouyang Gong and Shang Buqi agreed on the rules of the competition, there were a few more suspicious people around the Huachuan Restaurant that had closed, and these people came to the Huachuan Building every day every day when Shang Buqi and Ouyang Gong started the competition three days ago, and they didn't go in to eat, they just looked around.

Originally, there were three most famous restaurants in this Huachuan City, which were called the third floor of Huachuan, one was called Fuhua Building, and the other was called Manyan Building, and this Huachuan Building was one of them.

Among them, Manyanlou is the earliest restaurant in the city, and Huachuan Lou was opened later, that Manyanlou has been in the city for many years, deep-rooted, but because the two restaurants are far apart, there is basically no competition, and there has been nothing to do with each other for decades.

And the floating flower building is a restaurant that was built ten years ago, and listen to the name, naturally you will know, it is a place to drink flower wine, ten years ago one day, a stunning woman came to this Huachuan City, and she single-handedly built this floating flower building.

This floating flower building is the favorite place for those literati and ink writers, or young talents, because the women here are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they are not selling their bodies.

Although the boss of this floating flower building is a woman, but it is able to live steadily in the city of various forces, but no one has dared to make trouble for ten years, and it is said that the woman has a stunning beauty, it is also a legend of everyone, but no one has really seen the boss of this floating flower building.

Usually, the guests of the three major restaurants are also evenly matched, but this Huachuan Lou suddenly buy one get one free, this is obviously a loss-making business, the taste of the dishes can be said to be excellent, and it is also a buy one get one free, so that Huachuan Lou is full from morning to night, and the various teahouses across the street at the door are also in hot business, all of them are waiting in line to go to Huachuan Lou.

This led to a problem, the other two restaurants were doing dismal business, and they were basically crowded, and even the people on those two streets became fewer, which caused some people to be dissatisfied.

Since this big restaurant can be opened in this Huachuan City, it naturally has some skills and doorways, and at this time it is in the Manyan Building.

"Big brother, we haven't had much business in the past three days, and even the meat we prepared stinks. A big man with a meaty face said.

"Yes, big brother, I don't know what kind of madness Huachuanlou has been going on in the past three days, losing money to do business, but he is damn and he has lost his money, and our business has also been delayed. A middle-aged man with a solid figure said.

An old man with half-white hair and a look of sixty years of age sat in the middle, his eyes slightly closed, and he drank the wine from the glass in his cup.

At this time, a young man at the wine table stood up and said to the old man, "Dad, what the second uncle and third uncle said is right, I have already checked Huachuan Tower, there is no background, we haven't touched him all these years, it is enough for him to earn, it is better to take advantage of this reason to take Huachuan Tower over this time." ”

"Big brother, the latest news, the Immortal Kingdom is going to establish teleportation stations in major cities, this teleportation station can be transmitted between cities at will, and I heard that countries and countries will be established, and then the trade exchanges will be thousands of times more frequent than now, and the money at that time can be a lot of money. ”

"Yes, big brother, before that, it is the time for us to lay a good foundation for expanding our power, and once the teleportation station is built, it will be time for us to show our strength. The previous man with a horizontal face and a strong muscle said one after another.

When the old man heard this, his eyes opened slightly, and then he nodded.

"Hehe, big brother agreed. The middle-aged man with a meaty face said.

"Dad, second uncle, third uncle, leave this matter to me. With that, the young man walked briskly out of the room.

This old man is the behind-the-scenes boss of Manyanlou, named Liu Zhen, the Liu family is a big family in Huachuan City, and its family industry is all over Huachuan City, and this industry is not created by Liu Zhen, most of them are left by their ancestors, but he has a somewhat peaceful temperament in his life, and he doesn't like to fight, but he is a kung fu master, and he has practiced family martial arts since he was a child.

And the two middle-aged men with a horizontal face and solid muscles are his two younger brothers of the same father, the one with a horizontal face is called Liu Dong, and the man with solid muscles is called Liu Hai, these two younger brothers have also followed him to practice martial arts since childhood, but they are not as good as him, although the two younger brothers were born to his father's concubine, but he treats these two younger brothers well.

This Liu Dong and Liu Hai are like to fight bravely, and they are rampant on weekdays, and it is Liu Zhen's brother who helps to settle the trouble, but these two younger brothers also respect Liu Zhen very much.

And when Liu Zhen got older, he figured out a truth, it is better to keep a business than to start a business, and his two younger brothers have no talent to take care of the family business, and others only got a son in middle age, named Liu Chenglong, originally expected him to have talent and inherit the ancestral business, but gradually he found that his son is the same as his two younger brothers, he only knows how to have fun all day long, and goes out to fight bravely, but there is no hope, he can only try to leave more property to his children and grandchildren while he is there, and only by expanding the industry can the family last for a long time, otherwise only the share will be exhausted。

Now that Huachuan Building is a big business, there is no background, and the floating flower building is something he can't move, although the means are a little improper, but he also understands that to do great things, it must be like this, and his ancestors are not a kind person, even his father is acting like this, in order to have today's industry.

It was for these reasons, and at the instigation of Liu Dong, Liu Hai and Liu Chenglong, that he made up his mind to do it.
