Chapter 1626: The main character arrives!

Translator: 549690339
Because there was no checked luggage, Wang Jike walked out five minutes after his flight arrived on the flight number.

Wang Jike lived up to his “bad reputation.” Although he was already in his sixties, his back was straighter than a young man ‘s, and his every step was measured with a ruler. It felt like the distance between his steps was exactly the same.

He was wearing a Black Casual outfit that was well-ironed, and he was carrying a small black suitcase.

Wang Qiang was very clear that his hair was even darker and lustier than Wang Qiang ‘s. After all, his father would dye his black hair every year.

“Dad, I’m here to get you a box.” Wang Qiang immediately ran up and said in a flattering tone.

“No need,” Wang Jike frowned and refused.

Wang Qiang felt guilty, but he immediately said,”Dad, let me introduce you. Actually, we’ve all met before. This is my friend Liu …”

Before he could finish his sentence, Wang Qiang was surprised to find that Liu Li’s fat body, which had been standing beside him, was gone.

“Uh,” Wang Qiang looked left and right, but couldn’t find it.

Wang Jike stood still and asked,””Do you need to wait for your friend?”

…

“No need, no need. He probably had something to do and left.” “Dad, I’ll take you to head chef Yuan’s right now,” Wang Qiang said immediately.

“It’s not business time yet. Why are you going to head chef Yuan’s place?” “I didn’t tell you before I came,” Wang Jike said.”It’s impolite to visit now.”

Wang Qiang could only nod repeatedly, not daring to refute.

“Take me to your place.” Wang Jike said after a moment of silence.

“Oh, oh.” “I’ll get a room in the hotel immediately,”Wang Qiang immediately agreed.

They had booked a car before they came, and the driver was already waiting in the parking lot. Wang Qiang actually wanted to sit in the front passenger seat, but because of Wang Jike’s deterrence, he still sat in the back with his legs closed.

Mobile phones were really convenient now. In the past, he had to make a phone call to book a room, but now he could do it directly on the travel app.

Along the way, Wang Qiang tried to find various topics, but Wang Jike was in a state of indifference. Only when it was related to cooking would he be interested in chatting.

For example, Wang Qiang had said,”I feel that head chef Yuan’s knife work is different from all the current chefs.”

Wang Jike would reply,”it’s not that he is different from all the other chefs. It’s that head chef Yuan’s cutting techniques have its own system. Any well-known master has their own understanding of cutting techniques. It just depends on whether the individual’s style is as strong as it is.”

“It’s not personal style,” Wang Qiang said.”I mean, I feel that head chef Yuan has a set of knife skills.”

“You have your own knife skill?” Wang Jike tilted his head and looked at Wang Qiang seriously.

The concept of an individual’s knife skill style and an individual’s knife skill were completely different. The former was something that others could not learn, while the latter was something that everyone could learn, but it depended on their talent.

And just as Wang Jike had said, Masters all had their own styles, or they wouldn’t have become Masters. But personal knife skills …

Wang Jike didn’t say anything, and it was hard to tell whether he believed it or not from his expression.

The distance between the airport and the Hilton Hotel was not far, but it was not close either. Just as the father and son were chatting awkwardly, the car arrived at the Hilton Hotel in Chenghua District.

There was an interesting story about the Hilton Hotel. The Hilton Hotel in Chenghua District was just a building. Since it opened in 2017, business had been good, so there were plans to expand the storefront.

But after last year, when Hilton decisively bought the building next to it, it was still full.

Hilton knew what was going on, even though his service motto was “did you smile at your guests today?” But in fact, another sentence was more appropriate,”have you lowered your head to money today?”

The Hilton Hotel located in Chenghua District had a special “Chengdu tourism information desk (including the queuing guide for Yuan Zhou’s restaurant)” at the front desk. Not only that, but it also had a special wake-up call service.

As long as you called the front desk and asked when you wanted to eat at Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, the front desk would wake you up at a suitable time and then drive you there to line up.

In fact, it was really like this. If you wanted to earn money, you had to have the attitude of earning money. It wasn’t that you had to suck up to him, but that you couldn’t want to earn money and still act as if someone owed you millions.

“Dad, you can put down the food first. We will head to head chef Yuan’s after you rest for a while.” Wang Qiang said.

Wang Jike nodded and got the room card from the front desk. He left Wang Qiang and went to his room.

Then, Wang Qiang returned to his room and sent a message to Hao Cheng and the others. They gathered in Huang Fei’s room again.

He had forgotten to mention that Wang Qiang and the others had booked a suite. Hence, Liu Li and Hao Cheng were sitting in the living room of Huang Fei’s room.

“Liu Li, you’re such a good friend …” Wang Qiang knocked on the door and entered. He saw the fat body on the sofa. Before he could finish his sentence, he heard Liu Li’s voice.

“Brother Qiang, why didn’t you wait for me? I just went to the toilet and I’m using an alternate account. When I came back, I was gone.” Liu Li’s face was gloomy. He patted his big belly and said,””Look at my size. I’ve searched the entire terminal and I’m drenched in sweat. Do you think it’s easy for me?”

“Brother Qiang, can’t you and uncle Wang wait for me?” Liu Li’s tone was filled with grievance.

Wang Qiang was stunned. Thinking about it this way, it seemed that he was really going to leave immediately, so he, who was originally a little “questioning,” was a little speechless for a moment.

“Ahem.” “Why didn’t you tell me before you went to the toilet? I thought you came back first,” Wang Qiang said.

Liu Li’s eyes were wide open.”How is that possible? I promised to accompany you, brother Qiang, and I’ll definitely keep my word. Timely rain in Jianghu is talking about me!”

“And I thought it would only take a minute or two. I’ll be back soon, so I didn’t say anything.” Liu Li said.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It’s my problem. ” Wang Qiang felt that he had gone too far.

“It’s okay, brother Qiang. Is uncle Wang staying at this hotel now?” Liu Li waved his hand to show his magnanimity, then asked with concern.

“Yes, I’ve already settled down.” Wang Qiang nodded.

“Then let’s go visit chef Wang Jike later.” Hao Cheng said. Out of courtesy, they naturally had to pay a visit to Wang Jike, one of the five tigers of Jiangsu cuisine.

At about 4:20, Wang Qiang led the three people to his father’s room.

Wang Qiang took a deep breath and knocked on the door.”Peng Peng”, the crisp knocking sound was heard.

“Come in and sit.” After Wang Jike opened the door, he welcomed the four people into the room.

In fact, Wang Jike had not rested for long in the room. Looking around, he had not changed his clothes. Today’s morning newspaper from Chengdu was spread out on the desk.

After entering the room, Wang Jike sat in the main seat, while Hao Cheng, Huang Fei, Liu Li, and Wang Qiang sat in the guest seats.

“Dad, these are my friends, Huang Fei, Hao Cheng, and Liu Li. You should have met them before.” Wang Qiang was the first to speak.

“Yes, I know them all.” “Hao Cheng, how much have you learned about your master’s Su-style pastry?” Wang Jike asked.

Sure enough, the first thing he asked was about cooking. There was no need for any formalities.

“Uh …” Hao Cheng replied,”I’m still quite a distance away from master. I’m currently focusing on su Xi cuisine.”

Like Sichuan cuisine, Jiangsu cuisine was divided into several factions, mainly Jin Ling, Huaiyang, su Xi, and Xu Hai. Among them, Xu Hai was salty, similar to Lu cuisine, su Xi was light in taste and focused on color and fragrance, Huaiyang was sweet and salty, while Jin Ling was focused on knife skills and elegance.

“Well, very good. You are very focused. Cooking is not about how many cuisines you have mastered, but how well you can study one of them.” Wang Jike said.

“Thank you for your advice, head chef Wang Jike,” Hao Cheng said.”My master said the same thing.”

“I just had a meal with brother Huang a few days ago. He told me that his kid is very talented in cooking.” Wang Jike turned to Huang Fei and asked,””Are you diligent enough to fulfill your talent?”

“I’ve been polishing my basic skills. I feel that there’s still room for improvement.” Huang Fei replied.

Wang Jike nodded.”Yes, you must lay a solid foundation. Otherwise, no matter how talented you are, it’s all in the air. You’ll break it with a single push.”

“Thank you, head chef Wang. I will definitely remember this.” Huang Fei said.

“Liu Li, you promised me before that you would lose weight. No matter what kind of skills you use, the body is more basic than the foundation. If you get too fat, your body functions, physical condition, and agility will all decrease.” Wang Jike’s gaze stopped on Liu Li, and his expression gradually became sharp.

“That …” Liu Li did not know how to answer, so he could only stammer.

“Dad, we should go. If we don’t go now, we won’t be able to get in line.” Wang Qiang spoke in time.

“Well … I’ll organize a private class for you when I come back. You’ll go at least three times a week.” Wang Jike stood up.

“You don’t have to spend money on that uncle Wang, right? I can do it on my own.” Liu Li said hurriedly.

“It’s not expensive,” “If you think I’m spending too much money, you can transfer the money for the private lessons to me in private. It’s not a big problem for me,” Wang Jike said.

After that, Wang Jike didn’t want to discuss it anymore and followed Wang Qiang to the elevator.

Liu Li didn’t know what expression he should have on his face. He could only hang his head and follow behind.

He really worked hard, Wang Qiang said helplessly.

In fact, since he was a child, Wang Jike had always given Wang Qiang face in front of outsiders. Even when he was in primary school and did very badly in his exams, he had never reprimanded Wang Qiang in front of his classmates.

In addition, regarding the gym, Wang Jike was born in the 50s, but he often went to the gym.

Kuai Xin? Wang Jike still had ABS and back muscles.

As Wang Jike himself had said just now, the body was the most basic. He had not surpassed hang Tian yet, so he had to maintain his health.

In fact, Wang Qiang was secretly thinking that with his father’s current body, he could live longer than the other four tigers. When the time came …

Wang Qiang and the others still arrived a little later. They couldn’t be the first batch, so they could only be in the second batch.

As the dinnertime of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant approached, the line became longer and longer.

“Head chef Yuan’s restaurant … Are there always so many people lining up every day?” Wang Jike asked.

“We just got a reservation. Head chef Yuan’s restaurant can’t be called full. We have to say that there are no empty seats for more than a minute during the opening hours.” “If you get a number, you have a seat. There are many diners who didn’t get one,” Wang Qiang said.

“Yes, it’s similar to what the newspaper said.” Wang Jike nodded.

“Well, dad, do we really not need to tell head chef Yuan?” Wang Qiang mentioned this matter again.

Wang Jike said,”you’re visiting at the last minute. And it’s during business hours. How rude are you?” Of course, I want to have a taste of the San Cha that you’ve been boasting about. ”

In the last sentence, Wang Jike had a rare emotional fluctuation. Obviously, he didn’t think he would lose to Yuan Zhou.

In a competition of the same dish, at least the cutting skills, heat control, seasoning, and other aspects had to be equal. As for winning or losing, it had to be in one of the aspects, and the other dish had to be significantly ahead of the other. Only then was it considered winning.

Thinking about it, it was normal. As Wang Jike’s signature move, how could he feel that he was inferior to others? besides, if Wang Jike admitted defeat so easily, he would not be Wang Jike.

In Wang Jike’s opinion, Yuan Zhou’s Yangzhou Trident and his had their own merits at most.

Each of them had their own merits. This was already a very high evaluation. One should know that Yuan Zhou was from Sichuan and had never lived in Jiangsu.

“I won’t be able to recover today.” Huang Fei sighed in his heart.

On the other side, Hao Cheng also felt that no matter who won or lost, it would be impossible to pass it calmly.

The first batch of customers went in to order their food. It sounded like the incident where 9 Yuan had destroyed the seabed.

A friend posted a post on the internet about “poor traveling and card-checking at master chef Restaurant”. Unlike the post by Haidilao, which was deliberately taking advantage of the situation, this “poor traveling and card-checking at master chef Restaurant” had a more upright outlook.

He ordered a 98-Yuan 100 styles of rice cuisine, had a meal at master chef Restaurant, paid for it, and left in a hurry. He was someone who had spent at the most famous restaurant in China.

Although 98 Yuan was not a small sum, it was definitely something that most people could afford.

Moreover, there were many ways to cook the 100 styles of rice cuisine, and it could be eaten without falling into the conventional ways.

Many people were discussing,”I suggest we eat something appetizing before dinner.” “Strongly after the meal. Otherwise, after you finish Yuan Zhou’s craftsmanship, it will be as tasteless as chewing wax if you eat something else!”

There was a heated debate about before and after the meal. To put it bluntly, they were discussing whether they should eat after the meal or eat after the meal. After all, a bowl of 100 styles of rice cuisine would definitely not fill their stomachs.

And this debate had yet to be concluded.

The second group was Wang Qiang’s group of five, and the five people entered the store.

Wang Qiang, Hao Cheng, Huang Fei, and Liu Li still ordered according to their own plans.

Wang Jike, on the other hand, simply ordered the barbeque recipe, barbecued duck, and barbecued Pomfret.

In fact, the recipe used to be called roast suckling pig, so the Yangzhou Trident was actually the word “fork” in the name of three dishes. There was no other meaning. At the same time, the Trident could be said to be three necessary dishes at the banquet of Yangzhou people.

Although Wang Jike was the first to order, he was also the one paying. After all, he was an elder, so he directly said that he would pay.

The other four naturally didn’t dare to say anything more. They could only thank each and every one of them, then quietly ordered their food and sat down.

“No need to look at me, just do what you usually do.” Wang Jike said indifferently when he saw that the four of them were a little reserved.

“Okay, dad.”

“Yes, head chef Wang Jike,”

After they agreed, they turned to look at Yuan Zhou and couldn’t help letting out a sigh of relief in their hearts.

After Wang Jike said that, he also turned his eyes to Yuan Zhou in the kitchen.
