First European Emperor [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 42 A cook who doesn't want to be a scientist is not a good Ou Huang (1)

The plan to enhance the image of the entire hotel in the hearts of customers with personal charm went very smoothly. After only five or six food tasting sessions, the news that "Chenyi Hotel has a young, handsome and highly skilled chef" spread all over the world. A small circle of wealthy people in the city.

Especially when a diner sent the video of Ou Zizhou carving carp to his relatives and friends to watch, and after it spread ten or ten times, there was an endless stream of people asking friends to reserve seats for the next tasting session every day .

These wealthy people seem to regard participating in the food tasting session at the Chenyi Hotel as a way to show off.

In fact, this is a completely predictable development.

Since the tasting will only be open to a small number of high-level relatives and friends of the hotel at the beginning, it is like some kind of class privilege. It is full of temptation for those who think they are in the class that should enjoy privileged treatment. It will become a symbol of some kind of connections and status.

Moreover, most of the guests who patronize Chenyi Hotel are politicians and businessmen, and they are very face-saving people. Therefore, when Chenyi's food tasting will become a topic that they may talk about with their friends, they will naturally not allow themselves to criticize it. Know nothing about this.

However, the number of places in the tasting meeting is limited, so they can only frequently contact the senior executives of Chenyi they know. Reserve a seat.

But in order to ensure the quality of the tasting meeting, the scale of the tasting meeting has not been expanded, which makes the seats of the tasting meeting more precious.Some people who have the ability to get the coupons for tasting sessions are sometimes reluctant to use them themselves, but choose to give them to their superiors or valued partners to show their sincerity.

Afterwards, Ou Zizhou also participated in an international food carving competition, and won the championship without any suspense for his ingenious works.

This competition was slightly promoted by Chen Yi, which immediately caused Ou Zizhou to win a large number of fans on the Internet-of course, a large part of them were his fans.After digging into Ou Zizhou, netizens discovered that he not only has great cooking skills, superb carving skills, a face that is good enough to make his debut, and a good voice that is not inferior to a professional singer!

Moreover, he is a science and engineering man who graduated with a major in computer science. He has the first grade point every year and a college bully who has completed a second degree. He has also participated in the National Internet Entrepreneurship Competition and won the special prize!

But he did not limit himself to the computer field because of his accumulation in college. He even applied for a graduate degree in biology across majors, and obtained unprecedented high scores.

However, after losing the guidance of an excellent mentor, he resolutely chose to drop out of school and embarked on another path that no one could have imagined - a chef, and achieved great success.

Ou Zizhou's resume is too complicated, and netizens are dazzled by it. Except for some bullies who are used to bullying everywhere, all of them admire Ou Zizhou.

This means that Ouzizhou has gained a lot of popularity not only in S City, but also nationwide.As his habitat at this time, Chenyi Hotel has also received a lot of attention. Some people even regard Chenyi as a check-in attraction in S City, and they come all the way from other places, just to eat at the hotel designed by Ouzizhou. dishes.

As a result, Chenyi's business is booming.In order to take care of every customer, they had to extend the business hours of dinner, from ten o'clock in the morning to twelve o'clock in the evening, but even so, it was still hard to find a table.

However, although Ou Zizhou has become an Internet celebrity, his real life has not been greatly affected.He does not appear in front of the public except for the tasting meeting, and the photos and videos released from the tasting meeting are quite limited, so he still maintains a mysterious image.

Except when he was working as the supervisor of the back kitchen, Ou Zizhou spent most of his time in the small kitchen of the back kitchen.Everyone thinks that he spends a lot of time researching new dishes, but in fact, he also spends a lot of time conducting his biological experiments - a fungus.

In addition to the mold that grows due to mold, Ou Zizhou also tried to grow edible fungi on the oily bean chili fish sauce.He found that no matter what kind of fungus it is, as long as it is properly inoculated, it can grow on the odorless version of the sauce, but no matter how he tried, the fungus could not grow on the smelly version of the sauce, and it died within a few days of inoculation.

In order to conduct experiments more rigorously, he also asked someone to buy a glass cover.He mixed the organic fertilizer specially used to breed fungi with the smelly version of the sauce in different proportions for experiments, and put the fungus and the sauce together in a semi-closed glass cover to observe the growth of the fungi and make a test. detailed records.

According to his records, he came to a conclusion—even if it is a low concentration of sauce, as long as the fungus is mixed into the fertilizer of the fungus, the fungus will die.Even when the fungus does not come into direct contact with the sauce, but just gets closer, it will be "smothered" alive by the smelly version of the sauce.

Ou Zizhou's equipment is limited, and he knows that his research can only be carried out to this extent. Further research, such as exploring the influence of sauces on parasitic fungi on organisms, requires higher experimental conditions.

The progress of the experiment is hindered, but the hotel keeps getting busy.Therefore, he temporarily put the experiment on hold and devoted all his energy to his main job.

To his surprise, he met Mao Ketian, a famous biologist at a food tasting session, Professor of University A.

Although the three words Mao Ketian are not well-known among the public, they are definitely heard in the biosphere.His research on plants occupies a very high level of influence in China, and he can even be said to be the most influential person in today's plant academia, and he is also the mentor of Chen Yue, the son of luck.It can almost be said that Chen Yue's achievements today are all due to him.

Ou Zizhou will be so impressed with him because when filling out the application form, He Yicheng most wanted to apply for this professor Mao.However, Professor Mao's students have followed him all the way since the undergraduate. He Yicheng, who is also a multi-disciplinary student from another school, had no chance, so he took the second place and applied for another well-known professor.

Unexpectedly, Professor Mao would appear in his tasting meeting, this is a godsend opportunity!

Ou Zizhou suppressed the excitement in his heart, and after finishing the tasting session, he stopped Mao Ketian before he was about to leave.

"Is there anything else the chef can do?" Mao Ketian looked puzzled, as if he didn't quite understand why the chef from the tasting meeting came back to find him.

"Are you Professor Mao from University A?" Ou Zizhou asked.

Mao Ketian was very surprised that the young chef could recognize him, and suddenly became interested in Ou Zizhou: "Yes, what do you want from me?"

Ou Zizhou said sincerely: "Actually, I am conducting an experiment related to fungi, but now I have encountered a bottleneck. If it is convenient for you, could you please give me some pointers?"

……

Mao Ketian didn't get caught by his predecessors at all, and agreed to Ou Zizhou's invitation very accommodatingly.It turned out that he came to S City to attend an international conference, and after the conference, a friend gave him this invitation ticket, so he happened to appear here.Since the return trip was scheduled for tomorrow morning, he was free for the rest of the day.

In the small kitchen, Mao Ketian looked at the large glass cover that occupied a quarter of the small kitchen, and was amazed at Ou Zizhou's amateur and imaginative experimental methods.However, he still raised several problems in the experimental design of Ou Zizhou.

Ou Zizhou listened very carefully, and after listening, he took out his notebook for recording the experimental data and asked Mao Ketian if it was of reference value.

Mao Ketian originally thought that this was just a small breeding experiment that Ou Zizhou, as a chef, wanted to improve the cultivation of fungi, but he did not expect that Ou Zizhou made such meticulous records.

Curiously, he pointed to a column of the form in the notebook and asked Ou Zizhou: "What do you mean by smelly version and deodorized version? What is added to smelly?"

Ou Zizhou explained to him his accidental discovery on oily bean and spicy fish sauce. After Mao Ketian heard about it, he was very surprised: "You mean that you use food that is only slightly different in the production process as a medium, but the fungus has a completely different growth. Condition?"

Mao Ketian was very skeptical of the conclusion of this experiment, and couldn't help muttering: "Cultivating death is very common, such as toxic substances, such as insufficient organic matter...but it's rare to feed fungi to death with something that people can eat. Are you sure you use Will there be any accidents if the cultured people eat it?"

Although no one in this world eats oily bean chili fish sauce, Ouzizhou has experienced a world where this extremely smelly sauce is a local specialty, so it can be sure that the sauce is non-toxic to humans.

Mao Ketian looked at the data in the notebook and fell into deep thought.

"If, as you have documented, the fungus is 'smothered' without direct contact, it is likely that the substance that produces the odor has an effect on the growth of the fungus."

If this substance is non-toxic to humans, this substance may become another fungicide!

In fact, despite the rapid development of medicine, fungal infection is still a headache.Fungal infection on the surface of the skin is not troublesome, but infection of the internal organs may directly lead to the death of the patient.

There are not no antifungal drugs on the market, but the types and effects of these drugs against fungi are very limited. Therefore, if there is one more drug, for patients with deep fungal infections, there is one more hope of survival.

Mao Ketian realized the potential development prospects of the small experiment conducted by Ouzizhou.

He looked at Ou Zizhou and asked sincerely: "Can I take part of the culture medium and take it back for research? Of course, you may be worried that the research results will be stolen by me or something. I can give you a document here to prove that this is... ..."

"You don't need paperwork. If Professor Mao needs it, just take it." Ou Zizhou smiled.

"Thank you! If there is any result, I will contact you immediately!"

Ou Zizhou showed a little embarrassment on his face: "If there is any result, I can tell you the brewing method of this sauce. But I will not participate in the research..."

Ou Zizhou had this concern because he thought of Chen Yue, son of luck.Chen Yue is now a world-renowned botanist and a student of Mao Ketian.

If he participates in this research, it is likely to bring unnecessary trouble to the research.

The worst result he could think of was that because of his participation, the oil bean chili fish sauce, which could inhibit the growth of fungi, lost its effect.

This has no effect on him personally, but it is a devastating blow to those who have lost hope of survival due to fungal infection.

"Since you don't want to participate in the research, of course I won't force you."

Mao Ketian didn't know what Ou Zizhou was thinking, but he could understand why Ou Zizhou didn't want to participate in the research.

It is very interesting that Ouzizhou's plant-level observation research can intuitively see the growth status of plants.But biological research in the laboratory is often not like this.

What they have to deal with is petri dishes, incubators, tissue slices, even microscopes and all kinds of headaches.This kind of experiment is long and boring, and it is possible that no results can be observed, and all the effort is wasted.

However, he has certain confidence in this material.Because although the experiment conducted by Ou Zizhou seems naive, it is very rigorous, and the data is of great reference value.Of course, he will not monopolize the research results.He can get to where he is today, not by cheating.

The results of the experiment made him curious about the food that Ou Zizhou used as nourishment.

The sauce was covered in a glass cover, and he had to open the glass cover first if he wanted to dig it out.

The glass cover is not completely closed, but has a movable cover.

"Is there any props that are convenient for digging? Well, there are also garbage bags."

Ou Zizhou nodded: "Yes, there is a small shovel." After saying that, he turned to look for tools.

But he suddenly remembered something, turned his head quickly, and was about to remind Mao Ketian, but saw Mao Ketian moved closer to the lid of the glass cover, and his hand was already on the lid.

"Don't open the lid... son..."

But Ou Zizhou was still too late.

The smoky stench was sealed in the glass cover for a whole night, and the moment Mao Ketian opened the cover, it scrambled to escape in the air.

Ou Zizhou subconsciously covered his nose, but Mao Ketian did not expect that the sauce recorded as "stinky version" in the notebook would have such power.After participating in the tasting session, he was already a little bit stuffed, but at this time he was leaning against the glass cover again. Unexpectedly, he was suffocated by the stench, and immediately closed his mouth tightly with his eyes closed. When he turned around and saw the sink, he immediately rushed over and sucked the water out of his stomach. Spit everything in the sink.

Ou Zizhou hurriedly put back the cover of the glass cover and opened the ventilation.

It took Mao Ketian a while to recover, but his eyes were still red when he turned around.

He took a few breaths and gave Ou Zizhou a thumbs up.

"I believe it, those mushrooms were really smoked to death!"
