In a competition that was related to reputation, to be able to let bygones be bygones and instead focus on cooking, Zhang Yitian had truly refreshed Yu Guangzhi's understanding of youngsters!
A dignified CEO like him, with just his culinary skills, was still able to display such boldness even in such a situation that was unfavorable to him. It was truly hard for others to not admire him!
Master Lu's next step was even more detailed. After all 24 ingredients were processed, he began to prepare the cooking.
What he needed was a claypot. The 24 ingredients were arranged according to their proportions and order. If he placed them in the claypot, the proportions and order could not be wrong. If there was even the slightest deviation, the taste would be greatly worse.
Master Lu could not help but feel pleased with himself, but he continued to be cautious. After half an hour of work, he finally managed to fill up twenty-four different ingredients.
While placing the ingredients on the table, Master Lu sighed and said, "I have cooked this dish for twenty years. I am very familiar with it now, but when putting the ingredients on the table, I still have to be very careful. I didn't know you, Mr. Zhang …"
The Master Lu turned his gaze towards Zhang Yitian as he spoke, but the scene before him caused him to forcefully hold back the words in his mouth.
When he looked at Zhang Yitian, however, this fellow had actually just made a move. But in less than ten seconds, he had actually already stuffed the three ingredients into the claypot.
This speed could not be described as something that could be described with words! It seems like this guy came here on the high-speed rail …
One was due to being careful for half an hour, but Zhang Yitian had only used less than two minutes!
The speed of his movements was dazzling, to the point that everyone was flustered.
This time, the tall chef seemed to have seen a glimmer of hope, and he walked over to Master Lu and congratulated him: "Master Lu, look at this brat's flustered hands and feet, maybe he doesn't know that as long as there is the slightest error in the ratio, the taste of the Myriad Treasures Cup is two different. Just watch and see. This kid is screwed this time! "
The other two also had coy smiles on their faces, as if they had seen the joke.
It was no wonder that as long as it was a chef, their cooking skills would have to be meticulous and not panic. In a panic, they would make a mistake, and if they made a mistake, the dish would go blind!
Although the three of them were nominally a chef, they were also chefs. Naturally, they understood the logic behind this.
But when they saw Master Lu's eyes filled with anger, they realized that something was amiss!
"What's wrong, master?" the tall chef asked. "We're about to win, and you're still …"
"What do you know!" Master Lu scolded angrily, "You all are just a bunch of idiots! You still want to laugh at him? This really shows your ignorance! "
The tall chef was stunned by the scolding. He naturally couldn't understand how he got scolded just because he came here to curry favor with them.
He felt indignant in his heart and asked, "Great Master, what do you mean by that? Aren't we going to win? But you said it before, as long as this ratio quietly changes, the taste of the pickled ingredients will be mixed. In the future, it will be just like the butterfly effect.
Master Lu snorted: "That means the ratio has changed!"
"But it's as if his tail was ignited. There's a high chance that he'll coordinate incorrectly. He's not an immortal, how could he be so fast and even grasp it so precisely!" The tall chef said disdainfully.
"He was that fast, and he grasped it so precisely!" Master Lu frowned, "This is too unbelievable, to be able to move so fast and even ensure that the order of proportions is completely correct. I don't think I'll ever be able to do it again in this life! All you saw was his flustered movements, but that was not the case, this was simply maximum speed, astonishingly fast, and shockingly accurate. Every time I scooped up a portion of food, it was unbelievably accurate, and the sequence was even clearer than mine … "
"Huh?" The tall chef was surprised, "How is that possible? Master, you have cooked this dish for dozens of years. How could it be possible for it to not even compare to a child in his early twenties? "
Master Lu shook his head in frustration: "Sigh, I just can't beat him! I... "I really lost …"
Seeing that the Master Lu had already said this, the three chefs could not help but panic.
Before the few of them could regain their senses, Zhang Yitian had already finished processing all the ingredients.
His speed was too fast, to the point where Yu Guangzhi was shocked. He had seen the Master Lu cooking this dish, so the final step could be said to be extremely meticulous. Even the fastest one today took a whole half an hour.
The shorter the time used, the better the chef's control over the dish.
But Zhang Yitian took two minutes?
In the high-end restaurants of Yandu, these dishes were priced around ten thousand!
It was precisely because it was so time-consuming that it was worth this amount.
But from Zhang Yitian's actions just now, he reckoned that this dish would only sell for a hundred or so yuan!
"What should we do next?" Zhang Yitian laughed and asked the Master Lu for advice, "Are you going to set the fire?"
Master Lu was stunned: "You … Don't you know what to do? "
Zhang Yitian laughed bitterly in his heart, thinking that he had never heard of this dish before, if only he knew of it!
He shook his head and Master Lu's frown deepened. He felt like he was being toyed with.
"Fire …" The tall chef said angrily, "Cooking pot for 3 hours!"
"Really?" Zhang Yitian asked with some suspicion.
The tall man smiled craftily, "Why would I lie to you? Won't we find out when the time comes?"
Zhang Yitian thoughtfully nodded his head.
Master Lu and the other two helpers looked at the tall helper. They knew clearly that they could not believe his words.
This was because the correct time was only half an hour, while the tall assistant chef said that it was three hours. This was either out of anger or was playing with Zhang Yitian.
If it was cooked for three hours, there would be only a pot of soup left in the Myriad Treasures Cup!
Zhang Yitian smiled indifferently, he placed the claypot on the stove, turned on the fire, and followed Yu Guangzhi out of the kitchen.
The tall chef could not help but chuckle. He said softly, "My goodness, does this kid really not know what it will be like to only take half an hour? "Fine, I'll just let him cook slowly here. Once he turns around, he'll turn into soup and see who wins!"
Master Lu sighed helplessly. He was a little hesitant in his heart, after all, he had won through scheming and scheming.
However, after thinking about it, he still chose the latter. After all, the more one got, the more one would be afraid of losing too much. He had enjoyed too much fame and fortune in his life.
He had originally planned to calm down. Since three hours was enough, he could just leave his things for two and a half hours, and then cook for another half hour, this way, he could coax Zhang Yitian to go and even win the competition. Why not?
But what made him even more surprised was that Zhang Yitian really did not know how to cook this dish. Isn't that too unbelievable?
However, based on his performance just now, it seemed like he had no idea how long he would have to cook for?
Master Lu shook his head and decided not to think about it anymore. Since there was a possibility that he could win, he might as well take the opportunity!
At this time, the tall assistant chef brought over an empty earthenware pot from the side. He poured some water into it and said, "In order to make him not suspicious, we might as well use this pot for two and a half hours!"
The Master Lu nodded his head and passed the claypot that he had just finished to the tall assistant, allowing him to send it to a cubicle.
He could not help but feel a sense of loss. He had been a chef all his life, and yet he still had to use this method to win. This was already a joke in itself.
Of course, it was not the three helpers who were laughing at him, because they also had a vested interest in the kitchen. It was Zhang Yitian who had come out of the door.
Zhang Yitian looked at the time and laughed dejectedly, then walked towards the direction of the guest hall.
Only here did he notice that the three ancestors of the Yu Clan had already gone to the Yang Mansion, and only then did he go there.
The moment Zhang Yitian entered the door, he saw the Yu Family ancestors and the two grandsons chatting on the side. The moment they saw him enter, their gazes all landed on Zhang Yitian.
Yu Guangzhi smiled and gestured for Zhang Yitian to sit down: "Director Zhang, I didn't think that you would be so knowledgeable in culinary arts. What a talent! "
Zhang Yitian replied humbly: "I don't dare, I only treat it as a hobby, maybe Elder Yu doesn't know, that in my company, there is another restaurant, it is mainly to help with the fruit and vegetables companies' business."
"Hmm, I'll sell it myself. This is a good idea!" Yu Guangzhi sighed, "Mr Zhang's business insight is flawless!"
"Hmph, I just don't know if I can win today!" Yu Tian, who was at the side, interrupted, "Master Lu is a famous culinary master throughout the country. Do you really think you can beat him? What a joke! "
Zhang Yitian looked at Yu Tian, and asked: "Then Young Master Yu, what if I win? What do you want? "
Yu Tian looked at Zhang Yitian with dissatisfaction: "What? What are you trying to say? Do you want to bet more? "
Zhang Yitian smiled but did not speak, obviously he had a plan.
Yu Guangzhi laughed, and did not say a word, only listening to their conversation.
Yu Tian disdainfully said: "Speak, what do you want to lose?"
Zhang Yitian said: "If I lose, Sir Yu can choose whichever one he wants, even if it's my group. But if I win, I only want one!"
"You wouldn't want our Guanghua Group, right? "Don't be too presumptuous, I'll tell you!"
Zhang Yitian shook his head: "I only want one person!"
Yu Tian subconsciously looked at Yu Feifei, then looked at Yu Guangzhi, and suddenly shouted: "Hey Zhang, this won't do, you are like a toad trying to eat swan meat!"
Zhang Yitian laughed loudly: "No, no, no, that's not what I meant. What I mean is, if I win, after seven days, I will bring the Master Lu away. How about it?"
"The one with the surname Lu?" Yu Tian was surprised to find that Zhang Yitian actually had the intention to kill this person, "What do you want him for?"
The restaurant that Zhang Yitian gave Cheng Yun was only the beginning stage. Although Lang Chuan had the ability, he was still a little lacking in his role as the company's general consultant.
Therefore, from the start of the battle, Zhang Yitian had already set his sights on the Master Lu.
Firstly, this person had fame. With such a person in charge of the catering company, it would be equivalent to having the ability to advertise.
Secondly, the Master Lu had the power to back him up. He had worked at the food for dozens of years, so he could naturally give an explanation. Therefore, using him to help Cheng Yun, the food company would definitely be able to do a better job.
