Strange Chef

Chapter 25: Someone challenges it

"And, you take the rustle to school."Thought to think, take out two thousand dollars:" casually buy a phone, convenient contact."I added, I owe you.

The leopard did not take the money: " I have, my mother gave me the money, the afternoon to buy a mobile phone.”

"Your mother makes money easily? Save your money and go home at least once a week to buy supplements for your mother, mine."Do not know why, the white road is very angry, loud howling gas extremely rough expressed strange goodwill.

The leopard hesitated: " What is so good to me? I still owe you the money.”

This sentence makes the white road more angry, a month ago, he is the desert of the mixed world little devil, how to come to the big city, but is to become a big good person, take care of this to take care of that, the world which have such a truth?

Angry to drop chopsticks: " you eat, lunch in the restaurant to eat, leopard responsible for buying, and clean up."And threw out three hundred dollars, and opened the door and went away.

The three people in the room were a little confused. Tintin asked, " Who did you provoked him?”

The leopard looked at the money at the table and thought for a while. " Is it the reason why I am too lazy?”

Zhang Shasha said: " You are not lazy ah, wipe the ground brush dishes are you dry.”

Not because it was lazy, but because it didn't take the money? The leopard mulled over it.

See the leopard a little hesitation, guess is the money thing, go to the bedroom to take out a diary, open a page to the leopard: " I all account, owe how much money to remember, later return, you can also.”

The leopard thought, " Give me a book.”

Zhang Shasha look at the living room: " remember together, you have no room, in case let the white road see how to do?"Spread out the book to the last page and put it over to the leopard.

The leopard said: " the money owed can be recorded in your book, but the noon to buy food account also want to remember clearly, can not let him think I am greedy for his money.”

Sasha said, " Also."Back to the house and took out a book, and a pen.

After dinner, the leopard and the rustle clean up the room. At 9:30 go to the market, then go to the restaurant, open, clean up, choose vegetables...

The leopard worked hard and worked hard. After finishing the house work, clean up the hygiene of the restaurant.

After a while, Bai Lu came back and walked up to the leopard with a pile of things in his arms: " Your.”

A set of knives, three chef's books, four white steel pipes, a mass of thick red velvet rope.

The leopard took over and said thank you, thinking is, owe money again. Endure again endure, after all cannot help: " white elder brother, I open a month how much money?"He was worried that he owed too much and would never pay it back.

"Just pay the pay."White road is intentional, do not tell you, anxious death you.

Well, I can use the knives and the chef's book. But why do a few steel pipes work? There is also a base below it. The leopard didn't understand it.

White Lu said again: " These things belong to you."Take the white steel pipe and red rope out, one meter at a row, hang the red rope, form a separate road, asked the leopard:" understand? Take it back at night.”

This is the advice of He Shanqing, because there are always people queuing, get a nightclub at the queue, to avoid disputes.

The leopard nodded, the white road patted ash, went into the room to wash his hands, change clothes, the chef ready to work.

After redecorating, white road raises a requirement to oneself, cook must come according to health regulations, personal hygiene, shoes, cap must be clean.

Change the clothes into the kitchen, found that the vegetables have been cleaned, secretly nodded, this boy is not bad. Just want to praise a sentence, the door came into a fat old man, a very not good posture, swagger, a pair of eyes left to see right to see, very a kind of horizontal pick nose vertical pick eye meaning.

The leopard meets up: " old gentleman, this shop has not started business.”

The old man gave a look, looked at the leopard, followed with a hum, his eyes turned to the white road: " You are the cook?”

I go, this is not open ah, a opening has trouble. White road sighed: " old man, what do you want to do?”

"Nonsense, of course, is eating, is it not possible to hunt?”

"Eat ah, our shop has not started business, please queue outside the shop, leopard, to move a chair out."Look at the big outside of the sun, heart, fortunately not a few days, otherwise also have to get a sunshade.

"Line up outside the door? I don't have to queue when I go to the Capital Hotel. You have to queue for your little restaurant?”

"Sorry, the rules of this shop, you can not obey, or can not eat here, the shop is not forced, but want to have to eat in the queue.”

"Yo ho, you are more horizontal than Lao Tzu, do you do business? Your master just taught you like that?”

Hearing this, Bai Lu smiled calmly and turned around into the kitchen.

See this small generation very do not give face, the old man angry: " do you know do not know who I am? Do you have a chef's certificate? Dare to open a restaurant?”

According to the age of the white road, can get the chef certificate, is generally the cooking school students graduated when the passing exam. As long as they have read books, they should know who they are. The purpose of his remark was to show his identity.

Unfortunately, Bai Lu did not read those books, just bowed his head to prepare food, ignore the old man.

The old man was angry and looked around, and suddenly saw something familiar on the table. He picked it up and laughed.

White road went to the bookstore to buy books, let a person recommend a few cook textbooks, one of which is the old man involved in the editing. The old man opened the title page and found one of the color pages: " See you? Did you see?”

The leopard looked sideways and said, " Pumpkin?”

"What kind of melon is south? This dish is called autumn.”

"The photo is old enough."The leopard reached out:" Why take my book?”

"Look at the photos!”

On the side of the "autumn" dish, there is a small photo, a middle-aged man with a chef's hat smiling, a faint shadow of an old man.

"Is it you?"The leopard looked back and forth.

In the kitchen, the white road sighed: " cheated, introduce the cooking book, how can someone's photo? How does the bookstore blind recommendation?”

The old man is furious: " do not know don't talk nonsense, this is the formal teaching material!”

"Fool who, the formal textbook put your photo why?”

The old man was angry. " Do you know who I are? This book is a......" compiled by Lao Tzu

"You see, you go for personal gain.”

The old man anger on add anger again add anger: " you give me come out, I want to compare with you!”

The old man called Zhang Zhengyi, a few years ago a magazine selection of domestic ten chefs, the old man is in the list. First place in the national skills competition in the 1980s. I got a lot of honors. He once served as a chef in several major hotels, and was later transferred to the state guesthouse. In the 1990s, a group of people compiled chef textbooks and taught at the Beicheng Chef School.

In recognition of his achievements with four other chefs, the winning dishes and personal photos of the five people are specially attached to the textbook. It had nothing to do with the old man.

The old man is especially good at knife work, the leopard said the pumpkin, is the old man carved pumpkin cup, auspicious clouds dancing, the dragon in the sky, the bottom of the pumpkin cup and carved mountains and rivers and other things, very beautiful.

The old man worked as a chef in the state guesthouse for a period of time, inadvertently know Gao Yuan's grandfather, even know.

Grandpa Gao has stomach problems, can not eat greasy, and very picky eaters.

Old man Zhang Zhengyi is a cook, is to serve the leadership, naturally to try to give grandpa Gao do delicious.

Now, both people are old, not the relationship between service and being served. However acquaintance is fate, Zhang Zhengyi retired, occasionally come up with what dish, or come to the door to do high grandpa.

Yesterday on National Day, Zhang Zhengyi wanted to go to the Gaojia family. But telephone contact, grandpa told him, to go to a small restaurant called five-star restaurant to have dinner, let him free to taste, is very, very delicious.

The old man is a famous chef, the heart, asked the address, carefully prepared at home to come, early this morning, must be a superior.

Zhang Zhengyi is very famous in the chef world, but Bai Lu did not know. Hear someone to compare with himself, but shake his head: " You won."Ordered the leopard:" send the old man out, give him a car.”

"I want to compete with you!"The old man patted the back, thumb force, wrist trembling, a group of silver bright shine in front of the eyes, when the silver light disappeared, the old man's old right hand holding a kitchen knife.

A depressed day, is this a movie? The old man is still playing handsome.

White road out of the kitchen: " old man, go home, I than you still not?”

"be not allowed! The chief says you do better than me, how can not?”

"Who is your chief, I don't know."Think of in the desert, the army to anyone, dad has to call their chief, even if that person is only more than 40 years old, not as old as dad.

"Never mind who it is, today you have to compare, not more than also have to compare, otherwise, I will not go.”

Hear this sentence, the white road first reaction is to see the leopard, how can this move? And to keep people alive?

Look to the old man, if the old man is 20 or 30 years younger, can call the police. But now? What are you fighting with the old man? Well, you're all great people! I surrender.

White road carries the big black kitchen knife to come out: "than other, you so big age......"

Later words did not finish, but can understand, the age of the hand is unstable, knife work down a lot, certainly not the opponent.

The old man is very stubborn: " just more than knife work."The left hand in the trouser pocket took out two walnuts:" one person, with a kitchen knife carving dragon.”

"Dragon is carved on walnuts?"The skin is uneven, bumpy, the old man really thought.

Zhang Zhengyi gave him a walnut and shouted out, " Start!"Holding a kitchen knife oblique, began to carve the dragon plan.

"Old man, you used the wrong knife, take a file is better than a kitchen knife."The White Road suggested.

Zhang Zhengyi ignored what he said and pointed the blade on the walnut.

Well, play with the old man once. White road helpless end amount of walnut, over and over to see twice, there is a general figure in the mind, the tail blade of the big black knife on the walnut, along the grain gently shaking.

Walnut has two main lines, one left and one right wrapped walnut, other places if subdivided, can also be separated texture, as if angular general. White road is too lazy to get so complicated things, around the two main edges start, do a two dragon for beads. The rest of the skin is designed to be floating clouds according to the pattern, and as thin as possible, highlighting the majestic momentum of the two dragons.

Twenty minutes, only twenty minutes, when the white road was finished, I put the walnut on the table, sighed and went into the kitchen: " I have to sharpen the knife again.”
