“It’s time for lunch. The first 16 customers, please come in for your meal. ” Su Ruoyan stood at the entrance of the store and spoke with a clear and familiar voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure strode in. Everyone was used to it and knew what was going on. They followed the line and entered.

He already knew where he was, so he didn’t need to look at his number plate to enter or wait.

When Lee Yanyi and the other three people entered the restaurant, Wu Hai had already started to order the dishes. Coincidentally, the four-person table was still empty. Thus, the four of them sat down at the table.

Although Zhou zhangju was not being polite, Lei ti and Li Yuan, as juniors, only ordered one dish.

Zhou zhangju, on the other hand, did not hold back at all. He ordered four dishes before stopping.

Lee Yanyi ordered three dishes according to his habit as long as he could fill his stomach. His age made him know how to make a long-term effort.

“Little li, is this your first time at master chef Restaurant?” Lee Yanyi asked after ordering the dishes.

“It’s my first time. ” Li Yuan nodded.”Master chef restaurant’s prices are indeed a little high. I’m a poor food critic. I wanted to come here long ago, but I’m really short of money.”

“I remember that many big restaurants have invited you. Why didn’t you go?” Lee Yanyi frowned.

…

The circle of food critics was very small. The most famous ones were Li and Zhou, but Lei ti and Li Yuan were also quite famous.

“What do you know? that’s the persistence of food critics. Do you think everyone is like you?” Zhou zhangju said. He understood Li Yuan very well, because he also had his own principles. He wouldn’t go to the famous ones, so he would reject all those who offered money to advertise.

“Can Xiao Li be compared to you? Your family is well-off and you have the capital to spend money like this. ” Lee Yanyi said with surprise.

“Actually, it’s not a rule for food critics. I just feel that after taking the money, I will be biased when writing food reviews.” Li Yuan said,”after all, it’s not elder li. With elder Li’s fame and reputation, he can write whatever he wants to.”

Lee Yanyi nodded his head. The food critic industry was about accumulating fame. It was really difficult to write something completely fair before one became famous.

Lee Yanyi also found a balance point between fairness and bias in this way.

“If you’re really in trouble, then come and follow me for a while.” Lee Yanyi said.

In today’s society, even if one did not bend over to earn money, one would still want to go against one’s will. However, Li Yuan was not even willing to go against one’s will. The toughest steel was easily broken.

“Thank you, elder li, but I’m still fine for now.” Of course, Li Yuan understood that Lee Yanyi wanted to use his fame to promote him, but he had his own insistence.

Lee Yanyi brought up another matter,”This year, the bogus world cooking competition invited me to be a food critic.”

“What?” Zhou zhangju was startled. He looked at Lee Yanyi and forced a smile, “I’ve fought with you for half my life and you still won. ”

“I was lucky.” “I also ate a lot of good food in master chef Restaurant and wrote a few food reviews. Plus, I have some insights on the cooking methods,” Lee Yanyi said.

“I should have come to master chef Restaurant earlier,” Zhou zhangju sighed.

The two of them spoke without any context, but Lei ti and Li Yuan understood what they were saying.

Being invited to be a food critic in the bogus world cooking competition, although it wasn’t a small amount of money, it was a representative of status.

It also meant that Lee Yanyi’s identity as a food critic had spread all over the world.

While they were talking, the dishes were served one after another. Lee Yanyi greeted them and everyone started to eat.

One of Li Yuan’s dishes was a dish that was very characteristic of Sichuan Province. It was steamed buns, salty, and steamed white.

“It’s so fragrant. I can tell that it’s the authentic Xu mansion’s Sproutling just by smelling it. But even the most authentic ones now don’t have the same smell as boss Yuan ‘s. ” Li Yuan took a deep breath and felt that his stomach was filled with this unique smell.

The reddish-brown skin formed a sharp contrast with the layer of red and white meat below. Together with the glistening sprouts at the bottom, the color was distinct and the fragrance was alluring. It could be said to be a masterpiece with full marks.

Normally, there would be sauce flowing on the bottom of the plate after the salted braised pork was done, but Li Yuan did not notice it when he looked carefully.

He picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. With just a sip, the meat melted, even the lean meat. The rich and fat texture mixed with the unique salty fragrance of the sprouts was a perfect taste.

“You’re just right in terms of fat and weight. The saltiness and sweetness are just right. The crisp and tender sprouts are very refreshing. They’re even more delicious than the ones I ate in the Xu mansion.” Li Yuan’s originally serious face had long since relaxed.

His face was relaxed, and anyone who saw it would know that he was enjoying the taste of food.

It was his first time here, and he was already very satisfied.

Lee Yanyi and the others ate at a moderate pace. After they finished eating, they went out to stand and digest the food in silence, planning to wait for the business time to end.

Of course, the only one who needed to digest was Zhou zhangju, who had forced himself to eat four big dishes. He was also a talent. Four dishes and a bowl of white rice were gobbled up in a gulp.

“Burp, good thing I finished it.” Zhou zhangju couldn’t help but burp, secretly rejoicing in his heart.

He only thought of taking advantage of Lee Yanyi and forgot the size of his own belly.

Lunch only lasted two hours, so it passed by quickly. When Zhou zhangju had almost fully digested the food, it was over.

“Little Yuan, we have something to tell you.” Lee Yanyi led the way to Yuan Zhou.

When Yuan Zhou was sending off the last customer, he saw Lee Yanyi and the others. He instinctively felt that something must have happened. As expected, the four of them came up.

“What’s the matter? let’s talk inside,” Yuan Zhou had already become a mature restaurant owner.

It was a standard procedure to serve guests a glass of water.

“It’s about the books. I’ve always done it by myself, but I can’t keep up with the speed now. I plan to invite the three of them to do it together. Do you have any objections?” Lee Yanyi asked.

Although the initial decision had been made, Yuan Zhou’s opinion was still very important.

“No, I believe it will be better with the help of these three.” Yuan Zhou believed in the person Lee Yanyi found.

Even though one of them was a new face, the other two were old acquaintances.

“Okay, since you have no problem with it, then it’s settled. Do you need me to contact secretary Xu to amend the contract, or do you need me to tell you directly?” Lee Yanyi said.

When it came to books, other than academic knowledge, most of his work came from the head secretary of the famous chef Association, Xu ban.

“I’ll explain. ” Yuan Zhou thought for a while and then said.

Yesterday, Xu ban had called to say that he was coming today. If he didn’t come in the morning, it must be in the afternoon. He should be here in a while, so he said that he was just in time.

“We’re going to release volume six and seven next. It’s about Yunnan cuisine. This is what I plan to do.” Lee Yanyi took out his phone and opened a document for Yuan Zhou to see while explaining.

In the following time, the five of them had a discussion about the problem of the book. After basically setting the general tone, Yuan Zhou went upstairs and handed them the information about more than a dozen ingredients that Lee Yanyi said he didn’t know.

They were all A4-sized papers. The growing environment, taste, attributes, legends, and so on of the ingredients were recorded densely on them. As long as Yuan Zhou knew them, he would write them down. Sometimes, he would even ask the system. Therefore, it was written very comprehensively.
