Alternative life in world space
Chapter 125
Bai Jincheng was very concerned about choosing a bed.But Yan Cong is more casual, his idea is to be strong.And they only buy bed frames instead of mattresses. In fact, there is no difference except for the head of the bed.And he doesn't like those bedsides, he always thinks it's better to use the materials in the space to make one pleasing to the eye.In his heart, if such a foreign craft is used in the space, it will make him feel disobedient.
Bai Jincheng has no opinion on this matter.And his goal is to exchange architectural blueprints in the mall.At present, the expansion of the wooden house is the first part, and it will be a kind of fun to make the headboard by yourself.So they ended up buying a bed frame, without the headboard kind.It seems that the salesperson is quite confused.But customers can buy whatever they want.They still bought high-priced goods, and she must have a sincere smile on her face.
There are many things in the furniture city that attract two people.For example, Yan Cong took a fancy to a computer chair.He felt that Bai Jincheng worked in front of the computer for a long time, and the seat was very important.Comfort is the most important thing, so he decided to buy two.Although two people's study rooms are shared by one person, so as not to hinder each other's work, but things still need to be paired.
Bai Jincheng originally took a fancy to a hammock, the kind that can be fixed on the wall.But seeing his malicious smile, Yan Cong directly pulled him away.He thought about what Bai Jincheng might be thinking about, and he was in a bad mood.He felt that he had to take precautions, this kind of thing couldn't appear at home!
Originally, the two of them were about to go out from the furniture city and were planning to go to the library.As a result, two people approached, one of whom knew Yan Cong. "Yan Cong? Am I right?"
Yan Cong froze for a moment before reacting.The person who called out his name was a judge who had previously participated in the competition.But he really couldn't remember the names of the judges, so it was a little embarrassing. "Hello, teacher!"
Zhou Sheng said with a smile: "Three years have passed in a flash. Although you have grown a lot taller, your appearance has not changed. Who is this?"
Yan Cong replied: "This is my boyfriend."
Zhou Sheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's good. But I seem to have seen this young man before."
Bai Jincheng said: "I was with him during the competition three years ago."
"Hey. It's not easy for young people to have such a stable relationship nowadays. Are you... buying furniture?"
Yan Cong nodded: "Yes. I was admitted to National University, and my dad bought me a house near the school, so I came to buy some furniture before school starts."
"National University! High-achieving student. Not bad. But it's a pity that you don't become a chef with your culinary skills."
"Although I majored in management at National University. But you also know the situation of my family. I must still be a chef."
"That's true. Your family has a long history, which is incomparable to others. Speaking of which, there is still more than a month before the start of the university, and there is an international food exchange meeting in Beijing. Are you interested in participating? There may also be Some chefs will start a challenge, if you are interested. I can give you a recommendation."
Yan Cong is of course interested.And he didn't expect such a good thing to happen to him when he bought a piece of furniture. "Of course I'm interested! That would be a big thank you!"
Zhou Sheng took out the business card from his pocket, and handed it over: "Call me tomorrow, and I will tell you the time and place. But I have signed up for you. Even if someone challenges you, don't back down. Although this competition is said to be a friendly match with international friends, in this case you still have to win beautifully. You will have to show your skills when the time comes."
When he heard that he might have to compete with foreign chefs, Yan Cong somewhat retreated. "But I'm still a novice after all."
"I've seen your ability in knife skills and seasoning, it's okay. Don't worry about it. We have hundreds of chefs participating in this exchange meeting. If the other party doesn't have a newcomer your age, the older ones probably won't do it either. So shameless. Now, I still have something to do, let’s make an appointment on the phone tomorrow to have a good chat.” After speaking, Zhou Sheng looked at Bai Jincheng again: “Take your boyfriend with you. I don’t think he’s okay. rest assured."
Bai Jincheng didn't feel embarrassed either: "I'm sorry. After all, our little Cong has just grown up and just arrived in the capital. His parents entrusted him to me to protect him. I have a great responsibility."
Zhou Sheng laughed loudly: "There's nothing wrong with it. See you tomorrow then."
Suddenly encountered such a thing.Yan Cong called his grandfather first before getting back into the car.
When Yan Shouguo heard that it was Zhou Sheng, and it was this international food exchange meeting, he immediately agreed. "I wanted to tell you about this at first, but I didn't tell you that you were engaged. I didn't expect Zhou Sheng to meet you. You can go there at ease and treat it as learning. If you really want to Don't have any burdens in the game, it doesn't matter if you lose, it's normal to lose at your age. If you win all the way, it's not a good thing."
Yan Cong smiled: "Grandpa, do you say that I want to win or not?"
Yan Shouguo also smiled: "That depends on how good your opponent is. But we have to lose with strength. This kind of tolerance is indispensable."
"Understood! Then I can participate with peace of mind. Maybe I can learn a lot of new things."
"This mentality is right. Since it is an exchange meeting, it is mainly about communication. If there is anything you don't understand, you can talk to Zhou Sheng. This profession has a very wide network of contacts. If you make friends with him, it will be good for you in the future. "
Yan Cong asked: "Grandpa, what is a food planner?"
Mr. Yan replied: "Simply speaking, it is to help others plan the menu. Of course, this menu may also contain new dishes that he has researched. Not everyone who runs a restaurant has family skills and secret recipes like ours. More It all starts with hiring chefs. But not all chefs can maintain a very high level of craftsmanship and creativity. But it is impossible to keep changing or hiring new chefs. So there is Zhou Sheng occupation. They not only undertake the production of special banquets for certain guests and groups, but also develop new dishes for the back kitchens of some businesses.”
"That is to say, their business is to sell the recipes they have researched to others?"
"Yes. Part of it is like this. But it's not all. You'll understand when you get in touch with them in the future. But our Yan family has never cooperated with food planners."
"In other words, food planners are very capable cooks, right?"
"This is for sure. They not only need to know one or two cuisines, but also the food of other countries. It is a good thing for us chefs to make friends with them. Especially when you are so young, you can also have unlimited creativity. He communicates that you need to pay more attention to learning, including his thoughts on ingredients and dishes. It's all important."
The next day, Yan Cong called Zhou Sheng and made an appointment to meet at a teahouse in the evening.Because the appointment is at eight o'clock in the evening, that is to say, there will be no dinner.
After Bai Jincheng came back from get off work, the two of them ate dinner and drove to Leyi Tea House.
This tea house has three parts.The first floor on the left is Santai, where you can drink tea and rest your feet. Of course, there are also snacks here to keep you full.But more people want to go to the right side of the first floor, which is a small library, which can be filled with about a hundred people. Every afternoon and evening, three gentlemen tell stories in it.The second floor is a small private room.The privacy is particularly good, and many people like to come here to chat and discuss work.
If Zhou Sheng wasn't picking up work, he would like to spend time in this teahouse.Especially the library, which is his favorite place.But today, things must be going to the second floor.
After ordering the Dahongpao, Zhou Sheng introduced himself to the two of them.Bai Jincheng is also from the capital, so he knows about these things.Even if I have never been to such a place, I feel quite new.Yan Cong, on the other hand, has never understood this kind of teahouse culture.But after coming in today, I feel an inexplicable nostalgia. "It always seems to be very familiar, I have never been here before."
Zhou Sheng said with a smile: "It's probably because you have been here in your previous life. This person always has this feeling about some places that have been around for a long time."
But I have never been here in my previous life.Yan Cong silently uttered a sentence in his heart.
The main content of the three people's chat is this international food exchange meeting.Yan Cong said that he had told his grandfather, and his grandfather said that everything should be done according to Uncle Zhou.Zhou Sheng smiled: "It's worth having a few drinks to celebrate the old man! In fact, I sent an invitation to your family before, but your grandpa said at the time that there was something to do at home and he would not attend. I was still thinking, what is the big deal?" Son, it turns out that you were admitted to the National University of China, and your grades are so good, so you really should celebrate it. And the college entrance examination is finally over, and you have to participate in the exchange meeting, maybe there is a competition, it is indeed quite nervous."
Since Grandpa didn't tell Zhou Sheng about his engagement to Bai Jincheng, Yan Cong and the others naturally didn't speak up either.And it is indeed a good reason to take a good rest after the college entrance examination. "Actually, it's mainly because I have only studied art for a short time, and most of the time is spent on studies. My grandfather and my father are worried that my skills are not good."
"Your cooking skills can't be said to be the best, but the words "poor craftsmanship" can't be put on you. However, your family's requirements for these are indeed strict, and the old man strives for excellence in cooking skills, so it is inevitable to have high demands on you. Then Does the old man have any instructions this time?"
Yan Cong said with a smile: "Don't be so polite. Grandpa said, you are a capable person, let me learn more from you. Whether you only participate in exchanges or competitions is up to your arrangement."
"Success. Let's make a decision on this matter first. The invitation letter will be delivered to you tomorrow. You can bring two assistants by then. If you don't call from home, I have someone here who can help you. Why can't we let those foreigners be arrogant."
Yan Cong said: "I won't comment on anything else. But in terms of diet, we have never been afraid of anyone!"
After parting from Zhou Sheng in the teahouse, on the way back, Yan Cong said: "This exchange will last for fifteen days, and there will be a food exhibition for the same number of days. Are you interested in this?"
Bai Jincheng didn't understand: "Us? You mean Huayue?"
"Yes. There must be a lot of imported ingredients or finished products. If you can talk about their online distribution rights, isn't it a big deal?"
Bai Jincheng patted his thigh: "That's right! But this matter is a bit rushed, I will call Brother Lin about it when I get home soon. Speaking of which, will such things be very common in the future?"
Yan Cong smiled: "That's right. Our domestic market is so big, who doesn't want to get a share of it. Now you are the largest online trading platform in China. We have to have our own confidence. I think this is certain Okay. Let’s not talk too much, there are two or three successful companies, and then they have to take the initiative to ask you in front of you!”
