"That's why I'm here. It's really you …" A gentle female voice was heard. Old Li turned around and looked at the petite short-haired girl, "Oh, you're here too …"
"Fairy Tang … Auntie Chen …" Chen Shang Ellie … "Jing Xuan mumbled.
"Tsk, old witch …" Ceng Yunli was not happy with Auntie Chen.
"Yo, isn't this Yunli? You're already a grown-up girl. Look, I told you to take care of yourself. You're going to have wrinkles soon … " Auntie Chen's words made Ceng Yunli's veins bulge. She did not get along well with Auntie Chen for the past few years.
"Master Chen …" Ceng Yunli pursed her lips politely.
"Zhang Lao, don't you think you're going to lose badly with all these …" Auntie Chen pulled Zhang Lao over with a smile.
"It's none of your business. Stupid girl, go away. Don't get on my bad side …" Zhang Lao was pissed.
"Yes, yes, yes …" Auntie Chen shrugged her shoulders. Seems like I'm right.
Soon, Auntie Chen shifted her attention to the ingredients in the manor. She picked up the mushroom man that was still moving and sniffed it. "This is …"
"Hmph, it's none of your business. This is our food city's special ingredient …" Zhang Lao slapped Auntie Chen's hand away and placed the mushroom man back into the basket like it was a treasure.
"You guys …" Auntie Chen looked at Old Li. Old Li nodded, "That's right. I'm also a member of the food city. Everyone here is a member of the food city, except for you, an outsider …"
"Food city …" Auntie Chen was stunned. Auntie Chen was shocked. So many top chefs from Hua Xia were dragged in. Even Tyrant Barged in! She frowned slightly. When she saw the fish, she slowly walked over. Old Zhang blocked her path and shouted, "What are you doing?! This is our food city's holy fish. Outsiders are not allowed to touch or look at it. Look away. Don't even think about it … "
"Aiya, Zhang Lao, don't be like this. I still have a fish bone here. Let her smell it …" Old Li picked up a fish bone and passed it to him. Zhang Lao frowned, "This is a leak. I don't think it's a good idea. Boss Lil 'White might not be happy if he knows …"
Boss Bai, this is a key word. He should be the owner of this' gourmet city ', Chen Shang thought to himself. Then, she took the fish bone and smelled it. She was addicted to it. Hundreds of exquisite soups and dishes popped up in her mind. Her heart was itching. Just as she was about to smell it again, Elder Li took it away. "Alright, alright, I'm risking breaking the contract by letting you smell it. I'll stop while I'm ahead. Drink some wine and go by yourself.
Chen Shang Ailey watched as Elder Li scooped a bowl of water from the aquarium and passed it to her. How could she drink that?! But after smelling it, wasn't this the smell of Hundred Flowers Wine? Moreover, it was a first-class special fragrance. After taking a sip, it was indeed so. Using wine to raise fish!? This is unheard of … There were too many unknowns. Chen Shang Ailey was at a loss of what to do. Her body was itching. Curiosity. As a chef, her curiosity. Ingredients. Unknown ingredients. Unknown water. Especially for a master who specializes in soups and dishes. She felt like ants crawling all over her body.
Ci Mei and the rest were speechless. They did not know what to say. Are all high level chefs so filthy? Suddenly, they recalled Ye Cang's words. Craftsmen are crafty.
"Alright, let me introduce everyone. This is Fairy Tang, Chen Shang Ailey …"
"Nice to meet you," the crowd either greeted or nodded politely.
AV pondered. These chefs are refreshing my understanding of chefs every single day. I might not even be able to defeat any of the chefs here. Not to mention, I'll be hung up and beaten until they call me daddy. I better find a chance to become their disciple. This is too scary.
In the eyes of Looking At Each Other and Fang Ci, chefs like Old Li and Zhang Lao were like gods of war.
Ceng Yunli began to make the barbecued corn and other snacks. There was no point in fighting anymore. There's still a long way to go. I'll train myself in the manor first. Sigh … there's always someone better than me.
Sigh … The aroma of the corn made Chen Shang Ailey smell something different, "This corn aroma. If it's used to make sweet soup, it'll be the best …"
"Shh …" Old Li signaled her not to say it out loud, "This is planted by a friend of mine. I heard that it took him 30 years to cultivate it. He's also from the Food City …"
"Little Li, ask her to leave. Don't expose the ingredients of our Food City …" Zhang Lao said sternly.
"Old Zhang, we're friends. You even touched her butt. Even if you don't respect her, you should at least respect her butt …" Old Li said with a straight face.
"Bullsh * t! You're the one who touched it …" Zhang Lao said in an annoyed tone.
The two of them were about to start a fight. Chen Shang Ailey sighed, "Can you introduce me to Boss Bai from the Food City? Can I … Join … Join … "
Chen Shang Ailey's face turned red when she mentioned joining. However, as the Conqueror of the Five Swords, even White Jade Sword joined. She didn't feel embarrassed at all.
"Boss Lil 'Bai, he's not here. I'm the temporary manager of the food city. It's not impossible for you to join. Be my concubine. Then, I can introduce you to Boss Lil' Bai. My relationship with him is special …" Old Li's words stunned AV, Ci Mei and the rest. AV's desire to learn from Old Li was even more certain now.
"You bastard! You're still thinking about me? Hurry up and introduce me to him," Chen Shang Ailey said in an annoyed tone.
"Let's wait for a while. He's still in the competition …" Old Li shrugged and said, "There's still some time. Why don't you show off your skills? The customers here are not ordinary …"
"I know. Brother Lin is here too …" Chen Shang Ailey turned around and looked at Lin Liang. She had noticed him since the beginning. When she was 40 years old, he was already like this. A few decades had passed but he did not change at all, "Brother Lin."
Lin Liang had tasted her cooking before. It was indeed extraordinary. He looked at her expectantly, "Do your best, Brother Lil 'Bai. Your tongue is much more sensitive than mine …"
Chen Shang nodded. He put on his apron and came to Ye Cang's chopping board. He touched the knife marks and stared at the traces left behind. "This person's skills are amazing. It's so precise …" Chen Shang exclaimed.
"Your current position is Brother Lil 'Bai's position. He's a fast chef. After two days of cooking, although his dishes are not the best, they are still considered average …" Old Li smiled. Elder Li said with a smile. Chen Shang Ellie was shocked. It was indeed not easy to be in the middle among these people. And from their words, this boss was not old, but his skills were not simple. She frowned and said, "I can use your ingredients, right?"
"No," Zhang Lao kept all the ingredients in the manor.
"… …" Chen Shang Ailey was speechless. I just went to your place a few days ago to make fun of you. Do you have to do this?
Old Li threw away a fish bone. Although Ceng Yunli was unhappy, she still threw away two scallions and half a nest of cabbages. Old Li looked at the way she looked at him and thought about how she had hugged him when he was young. She threw away the head of the fish. Old Wang thought about how she had taken care of him back in the Imperial City. He threw away two star squid, and Jing Xuan repaid evil with good. This woman almost saw Master and I as a little bald donkey and an old bald donkey. She threw away a piece of fire ginger from the manor.
Panty Uncle stroked his mustache. It's my responsibility as a gentleman to help a lady when she's in trouble. He then threw a mushroom man to her. Sun Meiqin saw the way she looked at her and smiled bitterly. This woman is one of my regular customers. She always comes to find fault with me. Sigh, I just randomly threw three fruits from the Happy Firmaments Tree in the manor to her.
Chen Shang and Allie tidied up the ingredients. It was enough. She reached out and tied up her hair, then picked up Ye Cang's Meteorite Iron Kitchen Knife. ThornyRose and Wu Na looked at her with pity and sympathy. You've already fallen into an abyss. By the time the one in our family comes out, it'll be too late for you to leave.
