Chapter 69: Changes in the Imperial Court

After eleven o'clock in the evening.

The main leaders of the three major areas of Delicious Street, Fengyu Street and Food Court gathered in a magnificent hotel and held a celebration banquet.

The table is filled with exquisitely shaped dishes.

It was said to be a celebration banquet, but in fact there were only four people in the huge private room.

The leader of the delicious street, Fang Hao;

The leader of Fengyu Street, Lin Yanlan;

The leader of the food court, Zhou Xiong;

Of course, Xu Ke from the imperial court is indispensable.

"Come on, let's treat Xiao Xu to a cup together. He is the biggest contributor today." Fang Hao and others are all about forty years old. It makes sense to call Xu Ke, who is in his early thirties, and it sounds friendly enough.

Lin Yanlan and Zhou Xiong naturally had no objection, so they picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

"Brother Zhou, you guys don't have to be polite, I'm just entrusted by someone." Xu Ke didn't dare to be entrusted, so he quickly responded to everyone with a cup.

This is Zhou Xiong's childhood friend of his immediate boss Zhang Cheng, and Zhang Cheng is one of the chefs of the imperial court.

In other words, he came to help today because Zhang Cheng was not convenient for him to come over.

"Xiao Xu, after this period of time, I must praise you well in front of that boy Zhang Cheng, so I can't let him bury talents." Zhou Xiong said with a deep smile.

"That's right, Xiao Xu's cooking skills have opened our eyes today. It turns out that cooking can be so pleasing to the eye." Lin Yanlan agreed with a smile.

"I have been cooking dishes in the kitchen for almost twenty years, but now I know what the gap is, alas." Fang Hao sighed pretendingly, but in fact he raised Xu Ke very high and gave him enough face.

"I'm not as good as you said." Xu Ke was filled with his heart and poured wine toast Zhou Xiong with a glass.

Among the three, Zhou Xiong said the most realistic thing.

"I went to the old street for a special trip today. There was really no business there. Most restaurants were working on foreign workers. I'm afraid they would have to close the door in less than ten days." After three rounds of wine, Fang Hao talked about the serious business.

"With Xiao Xu's help, the result is obvious at a glance." Lin Yanlan smiled, "But I don't quite understand why the old street, which has long been dead, suddenly has risen recently?"

"I've inquired and heard that a chef came from a restaurant called "Neijia Xiaoqin" which attracted a lot of attention." Fang Hao said.

"A chef in a fly restaurant dares to call himself a chef, so what are our Xiao Xu? The Godly Chef?" Zhou Xiong smiled unanimously.

"Brother Zhou, don't praise me." Xu Ke's cheeks were hot.

It would be fine to say these words outside, but if they were placed in the imperial court, they would definitely be laughed at by those guys.

In fact, in addition to Chef Lei Tianming, the imperial court also has three chefs and seven chefs under the chef. The cooking skills of these people are really shocking.

And he, Xu Ke, is just one of the seven chefs, one of the ten cooking chefs under Zhang Cheng.

To put it bluntly, he is only considered to be at the mid- and downstream level among the ten cooking chefs, otherwise he would not have time to come out to help Zhang Cheng with his personal help.

"I think that kitchen next door must have its own characteristics, so it is attractive." Xu Ke shifted the topic away.

"I want to laugh when it comes to special features." Fang Hao snorted, "A Zhu Bajie pretended to be a staff member at the door attracted people's attention. All the dishes were so expensive. I heard that at the beginning, an ordinary fish-flavored shredded pork would be sold for 56 per serving! But later it seemed that the customer boycotted it and never sold it again."

"How is it taste?" Lin Yanlan didn't think there was any problem with pretending to be Zhu Bajie. After all, the times are developing rapidly and the competition in the food industry is fierce. It is reasonable to use some strange tricks.

"Everyone who has eaten said it is delicious. No one can tell me how to taste it is." Fang Hao shrugged helplessly.

"You didn't go in and try it?" Zhou Xiong frowned.

"I think so, but when I went there, they just closed and rested, and they didn't sell anything. And there were only two strange dishes, such as Dark Star Soup and Volcano Unaged Meat, the price was ridiculously expensive, and the cheapest ones were sold for 288 per serving!"

Fang Hao smacked his lips. He didn't know what the chef next door thought, but he dared to order such a high price in a broken place like the old street.

"In my opinion, their business has not been long. The reason why it has been popular recently is probably due to the curiosity of the guests."

Lin Yanlan took over the conversation,

"I remember that the owner of a restaurant had a bad attitude. Because of this, he became popular for no reason. If all the guests who went to eat were not scolded by him, they would still be unhappy and said that they could not experience the characteristics!"

"Hahaha, I've heard of it." Zhou Xiong burst into laughter.

"In fact, from a business perspective, this is not a way." Xu Ke carefully said, "But if you don't have solid strength, you won't last long."

"That's right." Zhou Xiong picked up the wine glass, "So in the next few days, you will rely on Xiao Xu. I guess the old street will collapse in at most a week."

"One week?" Xu Ke was so scared that he didn't dare to raise his glass, "Brother Zhou, didn't Brother Zhang Cheng tell you that I can only help you for two days?"

Two days?

Zhou Xiong and the other two looked shocked.

It’s not possible to change something substantial in two days!

If we don’t take this opportunity to completely kill the old street, we may still have the possibility of rekindling in the future.

"This..." Zhou Xiong frowned, "In the past, he came to help for at least five days, so this time I didn't ask, Xiao Xu, is there something happened in the imperial court recently?"

After a few glasses of wine, Xu Ke became bolder and said in a low voice, "Since the head chef Lei Tianming took office, the atmosphere within the imperial court has changed."

"How to change?" Zhou Xiong and others became interested.

"When that person was not leaving, everyone just thought about how to complete the work at hand every day, but now, in addition to completing the work, they also have to think about how to choose a sideline!"

"Choose a sideline?"

"After all, the imperial court was developed by that person, so many veteran chefs are still accustomed to the way they do things, so at work, they often sing opposites to Chef Lei Tianming and disobey orders."

Xu Ke continued to lower his voice, "I heard from Brother Zhang Cheng that he is fully supporting Mr. Lei now, so there is no handle in the hands of others."

"Is there a big chance of winning?" Lin Yanlan asked.

"There is still a big chance of winning, because those who oppose Mr. Lei only account for a small number and do not have a deep background. It is a matter of time before leaving."

"Actually, I have always had a question. What kind of person was that mysterious chef who used to be?" Fang Hao opened up Zhou Xiong and Lin Yanlan's curiosity.

"Don't be surprised if you say it." Xu Ke took a deep breath, "That's a chef demon who is ten years younger than me!"

What?

So young?!

Zhou Xiong and others were deeply shocked.
