The Rise Of Otaku - Chapter 148

Chapter 148: Chapter 148 The Birth Of A Master Chef

The chubby chef Li was stunned to see Zhou Yu using his mouse and keyboard to control the various kitchen equipment in the game, and complete a very delicious looking fruit pancake, which had achieved a perfect score in the game. Zhou Yu didn’t use the simulation operation gloves. It would be much better to use that thing when no one was around.

Comparing to play the game in the kitchen, it was much fun to play the game at home. Using the equipment, that was actually the parts of Benben’s body after it transformed, coupled with simulation gloves, it could actually reproduce the scenes of the game in real life, of which had a strong VR feeling.

But that alone was more than enough to impress the Chubby chef. There were complete sets of tutorials, a variety of cuisines, and strictly prohibited cooking processes. From small desserts to the main course dishes, they were all included in the game. There was even a stimulated master chef, who kept making tips. It made the chubby chef Li gasp in shock, “oh my grandpa, this is great. People nowadays can even make this kind of game?”

This was not a game, but a simulation that most chefs dreamed of. After all, there were not many raw materials for them to waste, so many of them could only learn their cooking skills by watching. Now, they could learn the cooking process with this method, and then have some real cooking experiences, they would save a lot of time and money.

Especially after a dish was finished, there would be experts tasting the dish, making comment on it, pointing out all the mistakes in the process of making it, and players could learn a lot from it. In “Fun recipes”, although there were no famous dishes, and just some common dishes and desserts, this game was absolutely the treasure of the average chefs.

“Little boss, where can I buy this game? I want one, too.”

Knowing more dishes is always a good thing for any chefs. It was also a good way to avoid the employees of the park complaining, that the food in the canteen was monotonous, and it was always the same food every day. Being a head chef can be very stressful, as the nearby village – Wutong village, had many good chefs.

However, this question completely stumped Zhou Yu. This game was the production of the game company, it has never been released before. It was just a game that was used to improve his cooking skills.

“Er… You don’t need to buy it. Just copy it. When you guys are not busy, you can play it in the office. Just take it as learning the new dishes.”

After that, Zhou Yu left a copy on Tung Fook mansion’s computer so that the chefs there could learn more new dishes and make the park’s employees eat better.

Wait until Zhou Yu left, the Chubby chef Li suddenly realized an important question — no matter how good this game was, it would only let you learn the cooking process. If anyone wanted to really learn the cooking skills, they still needed some real-life practices.

Zhou Yu’s amazing cooking skill was solid. Without being taught by a master, there was no way, that he would have this kind of skill just by simply playing a game.

However, the little boss had already left, and it seemed like he didn’t seem to want to answer this question. So of course, Chubby Li would not be so stupid to carry on asking. It was already a good surprise, that he was able to get this game.

Now that there was this game, the chefs in the Tung Fook mansion became very busy. Every day after cooking, they would gather before the computer together to learn the cooking process of new dishes.

“Its time to add salt older Li, you are so dumb, you can even use a mouse properly. How did you become a head chef?”

“Screw you, the soup hasn’t changed color. Wait for 20 seconds.”

“It’s too much! Oh my god, your eyes have problems, quick, change to the low heat.”

It was very noisy before the computer. It made those aunties, who were responsible for washing ingredients, very confused. Clearly, all of them were over 40, but why all of sudden, they became addicted to computer games like those young people? But although they were playing the computer, all they were discussing seemed to be about cooking. Without knowing what they were doing in advance, people would easily think that they were actually cooking in the office.

After all, they were all experienced cooks. After they were familiar with the cooking process, it would be very easy for them to make the dish. All it left now was just some actual practices.

A week later, the staff in the park noticed, that Tung Fook mansion began to serve different kinds of dishes. From having almost exactly the same dish every day to having new dishes almost every day, people couldn’t help but wonder if there were new chefs working in the canteen.

In the end, the Chubby chef Li waved his ladle angrily and said, “change, change, change… Change my ass! Hey, I’m talking to all of you! Wanting to kick me out of Tung Fook mansion? It is really a shame. The little boss likes me. He specially taught us a few new dishes. You should be grateful for that.”

‘The Little boss taught a level 2 chef how to cook? How is that possible?’ It is true that the little boss would cook some food in the canteen every day, and the dishes, that were cooked by him, were indeed much more delicious than the Chubby Li’s dishes, but how old is he? And it seems that he has just started learning cooking not long ago.

When Zhou Fu came back from a business trip, the first thing he heard was, that the little boss had become the master chef of the Tung Fook mansion. It made him feel as if he had left the village for many years.

‘Seriously? Before I left, he was just learning how to cut vegetables. How come when I came back, he already became a master chef?’

Zhou Fu didn’t believe it. But when he came to Tung Fook mansion, sure enough, he saw a crowd inside, all gathered at the “little boss’ counter”. This counter only severed the dishes that were made by Zhou Yu. Each person would only get one dish, and it was on a first-come-first-served basis, as the quantity was usually not a lot. The people, who arrived late, could only wait for the next meal. But the scene of people queueing before this particular counter quickly became the norm.

This phenomenon, also proved that the Little boss’ cooking skill was extremely good, at least, it would make the chefs like Chubby Li stand aside.

Zhou Fu shook his head and didn’t know what to say. Clearly, he was a good animator, and many people outside even regarded him as a “master animator”, however, this master was currently addicted to cooking and always playing around in the kitchen. However, the strange thing was, that he even successfully became a master chef and defeated a professional chef. Zhou Fu didn’t even know whether he should scold him for not focusing on his real job or praise him for being talented in many areas.

Zhou Fu, as the manager of the park, certainly had the privilege to get food first. Chubby Li’s eyes were also very sharp. He noticed him immediately, and then lead him to a private booth. After that, he severed the food, that was cooked by the little boss to the booth.

“Brother Fu, this dish was cooked by the little boss himself, using the ingredients that were planted by the little boss himself as well. The taste is simply delicious. At least, I have never eaten anything like this before.”

Now, it could be said that the chubby chef Li was totally impressed by Zhou Yu. Not only the vegetables, that were planted by him, were very tasty, but the food, that was cooked by him, was also extremely delicious.

Zhou Fu was also someone, who had eaten a lot of delicacies. By just smelling the pleasant aroma of these dishes, it was already enough to make him raise his thumb. However, a faint concern also arose inside him. ‘Don’t tell me that this spoiled kid will become a chef forever? It is fine to take it as a hobby, but it is not good to give up his real job.’

With this concern in mind, Zhou Fu quickly finished his meal and began looking for Zhou Yu in the amusement park.

Although this boy would not leave the park, he never took a cellphone with him, nor would he tell others where he was. He would always run around freely. So every time when they needed to find him, it was very troublesome. As the amusement park got bigger and bigger, the places that Zhou Yu could go to become more and more, and it became much more difficult to find him.

After numerous phone calls, he finally found him at the edge of a river. And he was still playing the fishing game, which he would never be able to catch one fish.

Sometimes he was a chef, other times, he was a fisherman, and who knows what other strange professions might appear in the future.

Thinking of this, Zhou Fu couldn’t help but shiver a little. He hoped that he didn’t just raise an undesirable flag.
