Chapter 21 21. The Past of Zhonghua Building
Attracted by the stewed fragrance, the handsome man couldn't help looking away, just in time to see the little fat man taking out a bunch of stewed tofu from the pot.
"Brother, you really don't want to eat it?" Little Pang Dun raised the stewed tofu in his hand and said to the handsome man behind the desk.
"Don't eat, it's not healthy." The handsome man coughed lightly, looked away, and pretended to review the documents in his hand.
"Brother, you really don't want to eat it? It's delicious!" Xiao Pangdun bit off a piece of stewed tofu, chewed a few mouthfuls, and immediately felt the fragrance overflowing.
"If you say you don't eat, you don't eat. How can you talk so much?" The handsome man glanced at him.
"Oh, okay, but it's really delicious..." Xiao Pangdun took another bite of braised tofu.
In less than ten seconds, Little Fatty had already finished a bunch of stewed tofu, and immediately took out another bunch from the pot.
This brat, why don't you ask?
I only refused twice, and didn't even let me go down a step, this stinky boy, it hurts him for nothing.
Damn, it looks delicious.
The handsome man secretly glanced at the smelling iron pot from the corner of his eye.
When he raised his eyes, he happened to catch a glimpse of that boy Yang Bin looking at him with a smile. He coughed lightly, and quickly turned his head back somewhat unnaturally to continue pretending to read the documents.
"Mr. Shi, try it. As the general manager of Zhonghua Building, it is very necessary for you to try the food of other restaurants. This is to know yourself and the enemy. Although midnight snacks are not good for your health, but for our Zhonghua Building to be better For development, I still hope you can make a small sacrifice." Yang Bin said with a smile.
This brat is quite clever.
The handsome man nodded secretly.
"Secretary Yang's words make some sense," the handsome man nodded, "If that's the case, then I'll give it a try!"
After finishing speaking, the handsome man stood up from the office chair and walked towards the sofa. His nine-headed figure was enviable.
"Boss Shi, come." Yang Bin took out a string of stewed tofu from the pot and handed it to the handsome man.
"You eat too." The handsome man took the stewed tofu and said to Yang Bin.
"No, I've already eaten." Yang Bin said with a smile.
The handsome man bit off a piece of marinated tofu, chewed it a few times, and the marinade overflowed for a while. Although the tofu was re-marinated, the appearance of the tofu became softer, but the tofu full of marinade still shocked his taste buds.
He quickly finished one string of stewed tofu, and then picked up another string very quickly.
Soon, one after another, in the blink of an eye, the handsome man ate five skewers of marinated tofu.
The speed was so fast that the chubby guy on the side rolled his eyes.
"Brother, didn't you say you didn't want to eat just now?" The little fat man squinted his eyes at the handsome man speechlessly.
"Cough..." The handsome man coughed lightly, "You kid doesn't understand, didn't you listen to what Secretary Yang said? I'm here for the development of Zhonghua Building."
He stood up from the sofa, tidied his clothes, and said to Yang Bin: "This store makes very good brine, see if there is a way to buy the recipe."
"Okay, I'll go tomorrow." Yang Bin nodded.
Before the handsome man lifted his foot to leave, he felt that it was not enough, so he turned around and took a marinated egg, and then said to Yang Bin: "Remember, don't reveal your identity, lest other people know, and then Zhonghualou will inevitably come back." It's been reported indiscriminately by the media."
"Understood, don't worry, Mr. Shi!" Yang Bin nodded and said.
"Secretary Yang, why don't you buy more..." Little Fatty looked at the back of the handsome man, and took a hard bite of the marinated egg on his hand.
The eldest brother was too speechless, just now he said he would not eat, but he ate half of it in a blink of an eye...
"When I bought it, there was just such a little left, and there was a long queue behind me! They didn't have anything to eat." Yang Bin said with a helpless smile.
"I'll go with you tomorrow." Little Pang Dun raised his eyebrows and said.
......
Suji's lo mei was quickly sold out by diners, and a large group of guests who didn't eat delicious food could only leave disappointed.
After Mu Feng cleaned up all the kitchen utensils, he bid farewell to the two elderly people and went home alone.
After a whole day today, with supper included in the main meal, Mu Feng's full-point surprise value has accumulated to 213, and among them, selling lo-mei at night-time snack has gained the most full-point surprise points.
Not all the diners bought it and ate it directly on the spot. Some people took it home and ate it. If it wasn't for this, Mu Feng would have gotten even more surprise points.
However, according to the current rate of accumulating full-score surprise points, Mu Feng is already very happy.No wonder the system has adjusted the difficulty. If the previous situation is followed, he can now directly reward two silver treasure chests of master-level cooking techniques.
System, can I reward a cooking technique now?
Mu Feng sat on the sofa and questioned the system in his mind.
Hosts who have accumulated 200 full-score surprise points can be rewarded with a silver treasure chest of master-level cooking techniques.
If the current host has reached the required number of full-score surprise points, a silver treasure chest of master-level cooking techniques can be rewarded.
The sound of the system was as cold as usual.
System, why did you reward me directly when I met the mission requirements at the beginning, but now I need to ask you to reward me?
Mu Feng suddenly thought of this question, and immediately asked the system.
Because the host can choose to store the full score surprise value.
The system replied.
Store full score surprise value?Why save it?Can it be replaced by other things?
After hearing what the system said, Mu Feng felt very curious and immediately asked.
Of course you can, as long as you accumulate a certain amount of full-score surprises, you can reward legendary cooking skills.
system said.
Legendary cooking techniques? !permanent? !
Mu Feng knows that if the surprise value reaches 2000 points (full score surprise value is not counted), any cooking technique can be promoted to the legendary level within a certain period of time.
Just by hearing the name, one can tell how powerful this Legendary is, that's why Mu Feng is so excited.
According to the current ability of the host, it only needs 1 times of the current master-level task requirements, that is, as long as the full-score surprise value accumulates to [-], a permanent legendary-level cooking technique can be rewarded. (The difficulty of the task will be adjusted according to the ability of the host.)
The system replied.
What?how many?
Mu Feng was afraid that he had heard it wrong, so he immediately asked again.When the system once again clearly told him that he needed 1 full-score surprise points to reward a permanent legendary cooking skill, he was immediately stunned.
Is this too exaggerated? 1, if you cook so many times with master-level cooking techniques, you don't need system rewards, and your craftsmanship is probably not too far from the legendary level, right?
What's more, the meaning of the system is calculated according to the difficulty of the current master-level task, that is to say, it is very likely that the difficulty will continue to increase in the future.
Mu Feng smiled wryly, the requirements of this system are really abnormal.
Forget it, don't think about it, let's see what new cooking techniques he can get now is more reliable?
system, I choose master-level cooking techniques.
Mu Feng said in his mind.
OK, the host's current full-score surprise value meets the task requirements, and a silver treasure chest of master-level cooking techniques can be rewarded.
Please receive rewards!
As soon as the system finished speaking, a silver treasure chest suddenly appeared on the coffee table in front of him.
After opening the treasure chest, a card floated out, which said [cooking · advanced techniques · master level].
Advanced technique?
Mu Feng scratched the back of his head, reached out and nodded.
The advanced techniques of stir-frying include: stir-fry, dry stir-fry, hard stir-fry, and soft stir-fry.
Stir-frying can be divided into oily and non-oily. The method is to put the ingredients in a spoon and stir-fry to a certain extent, then add the seasoning and stir-fry evenly, and take out the spoon, such as stir-frying white meat.
Dry fry, put a small amount of oil in the spoon...
----
A huge amount of information kept pouring into Mu Feng's mind. After mastering a few cooking techniques, Mu Feng has reached the level of a master in all the cooking methods of this category.
It can be said that unless it is the kind of top chef who has been immersed for decades and is extremely talented and can compete with Mu Feng in cooking skills, other top chefs include the following chefs of all levels. Competing with Mu Feng in a single skill, then, one or the other will have to stop cooking.
Because after getting the permission of the two old people, Mu Feng immediately contacted the decoration company.
Therefore, in the early morning of the next day, the decoration company immediately sent employees to renovate Su Ji.
During the renovation period, Su Ji was naturally out of business temporarily, so Yang Bin and Xiaopangdun rushed to nothing, Yang Bin was fine, he was mainly here to buy brine formula, as long as Su Ji was still there!
However, the little chubby was a little sluggish. Last night because of his 'duplicate' big brother, he didn't eat enough.I originally planned to come here today to fill my stomach, but I didn't expect that Suji Decoration was temporarily closed.
After returning to the office of the general manager of the Zhonghua Building, the little fat man slumped on the sofa with a dispirited expression, with a look of lovelessness on his face.
"What's wrong with you? Didn't you go to buy the formula with Secretary Yang today?" The handsome man sitting behind the desk frowning and looking at the documents looked up at the chubby man, then at Yang Bin, "What's wrong? Are you willing to sell?"
"Su Ji is temporarily closed for renovation," Yang Bin said.
"Then wait for the reopening before going, or you can see if there is any way to contact Su Ji's boss." The handsome man nodded, and then buried his head in the pile of documents.
He is looking at the feedback from diners while constantly looking for some novel dishes.
The handsome man's name is Shi Nancheng, he is the current general manager of Zhonghua Building, and he is also the heir of Zhonghua Building.
Since 30 years ago, Zhonghua Building has rapidly risen in Fengze City with its advanced management and unique food, and then became famous all over the world.
Shi Nancheng's father, Shi Chunxin, became a well-known figure in the gourmet industry in just ten years, and he was unparalleled for a while.
However, the brilliance of Zhonghua Building stopped 13 years ago. In that year, Shi Nancheng's parents unfortunately died in an accident, leaving Zhonghua Building without a leader. In just one year, the chefs left one after another.
At that time, Pan Deming, who was the chief chef of Zhonghua Restaurant at that time, was the first to attack and led a large number of go-getters to start anew and founded Fuxing Restaurant.
Immediately afterwards, the two teams headed by Wu Zhaofeng and Ding Shiman also left. At this point, almost all the backbone of Zhonghualou was lost, and the remaining chefs could not support the signboard of Zhonghualou, and the huge Zhonghualou was defeated.
This incident can be called the "three divisions" in the food industry.
Over the years, thanks to the hard work of Shi Chunxin's sister-in-law Yu Lanxin, Zhonghua Building was not completely submerged in the torrent of the times.
However, Zhonghua Restaurant lost its top chef, and eventually it can only be reduced to a third-rate restaurant, which will never regain its former glory.
Six months ago, Shi Nancheng returned from studying abroad and took over the heavy responsibility from Yu Lanxin, intending to regroup and revitalize Zhonghua Building.
As a result, well-known chefs rejected the olive branch offered by Zhonghua Restaurant because Fuxing Restaurant was in the way.
Shi Nancheng spent a lot of money to redecorate the Zhonghua Building, but because he couldn't hire an important chef, in the end it was only lively for less than half a month before returning to calm again.
Although, due to the reputation it had built in the past, the Zhonghua Building would not be a popular place, but it is very difficult to regain its former glory.
However, although Shi Nancheng is a bit funny in terms of personal life, he is as firm as ever when it comes to revitalizing Zhonghua Building!
He always firmly believes that one day, the Zhonghua Building founded by his father will be able to reproduce its former glory in his hands.
Of course, the most important thing at the moment is to find a chef with superb cooking skills. Only with a top chef in charge can the entire back kitchen be supported slowly.
It's a pity that because of Fuxing Restaurant, most chefs with real skill are unwilling to come to Zhonghua Restaurant.

"Brother, let the kitchen make some lo mei!" Little Pang Dun said weakly.
Shi Nancheng glanced at Yang Bin, Yang Bin understood, and immediately went back to the back kitchen to bring a plate of lo mei. As a result, after eating a few mouthfuls, Pangdun lay down on the sofa again and howled.
"Why does Su Ji need to be renovated? How long will it take to decorate! Why did God treat me like this?" Little Pang Dun sighed.
"Is it that bad?" Shi Nancheng was speechless, walked over, picked up the chopsticks, put a piece of braised tofu into his mouth, and after three seconds, he put down the chopsticks in his hand.
There is no harm without comparison!
Shi Nancheng looked at the plate of lo mei, it looked the same, how could the taste be so different?
He is now more and more interested in Su Ji.
