After I quit the circle, I relied on the God of Cooking system to become popular

This time, the message the sculptor sent him was no longer a rainbow fart, but a mold with an outline already carved.

Shi Chengyan asked him to customize the mold of plum blossom cake before. For this reason, Shi Chengyan gave the master the picture of the finished product, as well as the picture of the mold he is currently using.

Almost all the molds sold by Taobao are now made of silicone. It took a lot of hard work for Master Chengyan to find wooden pastry molds, but they are not plum blossom patterns, let alone hand-carved ones, which do not exist.

Also because of this, since the filling of plum blossom cake was changed from green plum sauce to peach sauce, many people have raised doubts, why a pastry that has nothing to do with plum blossoms is called plum blossom cake.

Shi Chengyan is also very helpless about this. The great master named it plum blossom cake not only because it has green plum sauce filling, but also because its shape given by the mold is like a lifelike plum blossom.

[Carver]: My current carving skills are relatively limited, and I can't achieve the mold carving level required for the plum cake you showed me, but it should be better than the one you are using now, at least in the shape of plum blossoms. Do you still want?

The engraver is very honest, and none of the hosts doing business in the system trading area is dishonest. After all, not everyone has the same level of appreciation as the engraver eats.

Carver: I suspect you're implicating me, but I have no proof!

Of course Shi Chengyan doesn't dislike it, he has to go to work every day now, and there is nowhere to find someone to customize the mold, even if someone in Taobao is willing to take the order, it may not be reliable.

But the system trading area is different. The level should be what it should be, and the arrangement is clear.

In the end, the mold was priced at [-] experience points, and Shi Chengyan thought it was very worthwhile. After all, he sold the other party [-] for three dishes, and the customized products themselves are more expensive.

After finishing the conversation with the sculptor, Shi Chengyan continued to browse the homepage of the trading area.

The dazzling array of products all look very good. After all, only products that are judged as qualified by the system can be put on the shelves, so naturally there are no defective products.

Shi Chengyan remembered the discussion about the dishes in the morning, so he found the homepage of the porcelain maker.

The data of the porcelain craftsman looks much better than that of the engraver. It has only been eight years since he got the system, and his professional level is already a master. Every piece of finished porcelain that hangs out looks as exquisite as a work of art.

If it was him, Shi Chengyan felt that the other party would be able to make the kind of plate that the great master used to hold plum cakes.

Shi Chengyan lingered on the other party's homepage, and then found out that among the items sold by the other party, the cheapest one cost [-] experience points. With his current savings, he would go bankrupt after buying it.

It seems that Shi Chengyan still needs to work harder if he wants to live a life of plate freedom!

-

After the custom deal with the engraver was concluded, as he had expected, he unlocked two more achievements, namely [Perform a custom transaction for the first time] [Sell a product for the first time].

It seems that at least a large part of the achievements are not too difficult to achieve.

While taking a bath, Shi Chengyan began to think about how to make a batch of dishes and hang them in the trading area to test the water without arousing the old man's suspicion.

It's really easy to lose yourself when you always listen to the engraver's rainbow fart!

He felt that his tail would go up to the sky today.

What Shi Chengyan didn't know was that the sculptor's comment had aroused considerable reactions in the entire trading area, but everyone couldn't get together to communicate.

Most of the hosts were extremely curious. This chef, who was newly hired more than two years after the death of the previous chef host, was obviously only at the intermediate level. Why did the food made by the sculptor give such a high evaluation?

Judging from the pictures posted in the sculptor's comment area, although the food itself looks good, it's not surprising at first glance, right?

At this time, Shi Chengyan didn't know that there are already many people in the trading area waiting for his products to be put on the shelves, waiting to buy a copy and try it out.

When he went to work the next day, Li Hongde didn't come up to question Shi Chengyan's decision, but directly began to give instructions on his cooking skills.

The attitude is very natural and does not make people feel embarrassed, just like a normal master leading an apprentice.

In terms of teaching apprentices, Li Hongde's temper is indeed much better than Shi Qingya's, probably because he is also in charge of the management of Fuyuan Building and cares more about human relations.

At present, Shi Chengyan has been studying in Fuyuan Building for more than a month, and his proficiency in heat and seasoning has exceeded half, and his knife skills have come from behind, and his proficiency has almost risen to [-].

After Shi Chengyan was promoted to the intermediate level, the newly added [Flip Spoon] skill was also successfully upgraded to the intermediate level not long ago, but [Dim Sum] is not too big because he has been doing red cases in Fuyuan Building during this time and has no time to take care of it at all. increase.

The change that surprised Shi Chengyan the most was the [Appreciation] item. As a skill without specific numerical values, Shi Chengyan always felt that even if he wanted to improve it, he didn’t know where to start. He didn’t expect to see the data this time. When looking at the panel, I found that although [tasting] is still intermediate, the description in brackets has changed.

From "You undoubtedly have sensitive taste buds, but you need more practice in identifying ingredients" to "You undoubtedly have sensitive taste buds, which have been greatly improved after a period of targeted training".

Shi Chengyan was afraid that he was overthinking, so he asked the system specifically.

[Does the evaluation on the personal panel change when nothing happens? ]

[No, changes will only occur when the level of the host itself has significantly improved or regressed. 】

[Then... is the so-called targeted training the taste aid I obtained before? ]

[Yes, the taste aids have helped the host's taste level to make a lot of progress. 】

When the system said so, Shi Chengyan was relieved.

After finishing the busy period at noon, the chefs in the afternoon kitchen can take a short break. Shi Chengyan has no habit of taking a lunch break, so he usually sits in the lounge and plays with his mobile phone at this time.

However, he can't play with his mobile phone without his two jobs. Usually, he either checks the latest entertainment news on Weibo, or watches videos of reliable chefs cooking on station B.

Today was different from usual, Li Hongde left him alone again, this time to give him training before the exam.

The business at noon can only point out the problems in the few dishes he often cooks. Since there is a need for targeted training, it must not be limited to the ones Shi Chengyan already knows.

"Today at noon I will teach you fried sugar, which is used in many dishes, such as the Kung Pao Chicken you often cook. This dish uses the 'tender juice' in the six forms of fried sugar, which is more commonly used The most popular one is 'fried sugar color', which is used to make braised pork, braised pork trotters, sweet and sour pork ribs, etc. Today's time is limited, and I will teach you how to make the other four kinds in another day."

Shi Chengyan obediently stood by the side and listened carefully.

Li Hongde sacrificed his rest time to help him train, and he was very grateful.

Shi Chengyan still knows something about fried sugar color. After all, Kung Pao Chicken is made every day. There is still a certain similarity between tender juice and sugar color. They are fried until the sugar is completely melted and slightly bubbly. After the state, add hot water and boil evenly.

The difference between the two lies in the degree of sugar frying and the timing of accelerating the boiling water.

Because Kung Pao Chicken is quite popular in Fuyuan Building, Shi Chengyan cooks several servings every time, and the tender juice is relatively less prone to overturning.

In addition to these two, the other four are sugar water, silk drawing, hanging cream, and colored glaze.The first three kinds are easy to understand by listening to their names, but everyone has eaten the last one, that is, candied haws, and the outer layer of sugar shell is in the state of glass.

It is easier to overturn the stir-fried sugar color used in making meat dishes. To make these dishes well, this is an indispensable key. At present, many restaurants on the market sell this kind of meat dishes in order to save trouble. Some of them will use other methods to replace the sugar color to color the dishes, such as red yeast rice powder, which is more convenient and quick, and some simply omit this step and add some sugar directly in the juice collection process. There will be a small difference in flavor.

However, whether it is in Fuyuan Building or Chengluju's back kitchen, this link must not be omitted.

Whether it is tender juice or fried sugar color, it is a test of the chef's concentration. Otherwise, no matter how powerful the chef is, if one does not pay attention to the heat or other details, the sugar color may overturn. Who knows who does the washing, which is the real reason why many restaurants have canceled this link.

It affects the efficiency of meal delivery too much.

Shi Chengyan once boiled the tender juice a little too far, so he didn't want to waste it, so he tried to make fried sugar color. His heat was still good, and he kept staring at it, so he didn't overturn it. It's outrageous the point.

It is that the color of the copied sugar is much bitterer than normal, and the color looks a little darker. Shi Chengyan guessed at the time that the fire was too high or the fire was not turned off in time, and the residual temperature of the pot heated the sugar for a while.

In just a few seconds, the taste of the fried sugar color has completely changed, and the sugar color is naturally useless.

But Shi Chengyan figured it out by himself at the time, now it is completely different after having a master. Li Hongde taught him very carefully and patiently.

It’s okay to use white sugar or rock sugar for sugar, but for rock sugar, the fire should be lower, otherwise the sugar cubes will not completely melt, and the rest will be burnt.

There should be no oil and water in the pot, and then put an appropriate amount of sugar as needed.

"Chinese food pays attention to the right amount, but it doesn't really mean that you can put it casually, just like this fried sugar color, I will definitely not tell you how many grams of sugar you want to put, and how much water you put when it is almost the same. You will never become a chef, I want you to make sure that no matter how many ingredients you put in, the ratio must be in mind, and the finished product must have a standard to be considered successful.”

Under Li Hongde's guidance, Shi Chengyan quickly mastered the timing of adjusting the heat, and the frequency of stirring the sugar solution is a bit particular. In addition, Shi Chengyan has many times of experience in boiling tender juice, so in one noon Mastering the essence, the color of the boiled sugar is uniform and thick, semi-fluid, and dark amber in color. The mistakes that beginners often make have never been made by Shi Chengyan.

Li Hongde was very satisfied with his finished product.

In total, I only did it twice in one afternoon. The first time was slightly flawed, but the second time was already perfect.

"Teaching you is really worry-free. I have never seen a student who improves as fast as you." Li Hongde sighed again, more sincerely than last time.

Shi Chengyan smiled embarrassedly, but was still very happy with the teacher's praise.

After going back at night, Shi Chengyan told the old man what he thought, and he finally decided to agree to Li Hongde's request.

It's all because the other party's private lessons are so delicious!

"Then did you tell Xiao Li about this?"

"I haven't had time yet, what's wrong?"

Shi Qingya was eager to try, and said: "I didn't say it was just right, I will go to make a deal with Lao Li tomorrow, isn't this the old and the young will also go to the competition? At that time, I will use this as a condition to trick Xiao Li over Stay a few days."

"I didn't expect you to be so treacherous, Grandpa!" Seeing the old man's expression, Shi Chengyan couldn't help laughing.

Having said that, in fact, to a large extent, the old man meant it as a joke.

Among other things, just saying that "cheat" is a pure joke.

The back kitchen of Chengluju is not something that ordinary people can come in. For so many years, except for a few apprentices of Shi Qingya and Shi Chengyan, there are very few chefs who can cook together in a serious manner, and just say Shi Qingya's usual advice made many well-known chefs in the catering industry unable to resist coming to work for free when they heard the news.

Shi Chengyan reckoned that even if there was no such thing, Li Hongde would inevitably be arranged by his old man.

Who made the best relationship with Shi Qingya in the industry is the old man of the Li family.

After this matter was resolved, Shi Chengyan was finally able to accept Li Hongde's teaching with peace of mind, and prepared for the upcoming competition. He was like a sponge, frantically absorbing new knowledge from all aspects.

Fortunately, he has a good memory. Li Hongde said a lot of things, although he didn't have time to try them out, but he remembered them all in his heart.

For things like cooking, although every dish is different, the basics are still universal. Progress is accumulated little by little in this kind of water grinding, waiting for the day when quantitative changes will turn into qualitative changes.

Of course, this corresponds to the large amount of rest time spent by Shi Chengyan and Li Hongde.

Because Fuyuan Building is a certain distance from Chenglu Residence, commuting to work every day takes at least two hours, and it will take even longer if you can't make it to the subway during a rush hour.

Shi Chengyan used this as an excuse to rent a one-bedroom, one-living room with a kitchen in Fuyuan Building, which is about 5 minutes' walk from Fuyuan Building.

It's also thanks to him saving a little money, the salary in Fuyuan Building is not low, and he is a bachelor whose elders in the family are much richer than him, otherwise he really can't help doing this.

Of course, his real purpose is not only because he wants to save commuting time, but the main reason is that he needs a private space where he can avoid other people's sight and use the kitchen alone, and then he can cook more dishes and put them in the trading area. trade.

You know, the time limit for a new round of sales in his trading area is coming soon. If it weren't for a sculptor who would buy his dishes unconditionally, he really wouldn't dare to delay it for so long, no matter how busy or difficult he would be. Think of a way to secretly make a few dishes and hang them up!

Shi Chengyan's other places in the new residence seem to be quite casual, just clean and tidy, there is nothing to be empty, just buy a bed and basic daily necessities, anyway, it's just a kitchen where you can sleep.

Only the kitchen, Shi Chengyan put a lot of thought into it.

In a blink of an eye, the audition day was approaching, and the official notified each contestant three days in advance.

Today is Cheng Luju's half-monthly rest day, and Shi Chengyan also deliberately picked this day to take a rest to come back to see the old man, just in time for the event official to send them a notice.

Because the number of contestants who signed up this time was beyond imagination, more than 4000 people signed up in Bei'an City alone, so the audition originally scheduled for three days was extended to one week, and the audition process was re-subdivided.

"It's so cruel! Pick ten people out of 4000 people to enter the main competition. It sounds more difficult than the main competition." Xue Zhen looked at the notice in amazement, but she didn't panic when she saw it.

He has been working as the chef in Chengluju for more than two months, at least in terms of mentality, Xue Zhen is far better than when he was suddenly dragged to the orphanage by Shi Qingya.

On the contrary, Shi Chengyan was a little more nervous than him. This is indeed a rare emotion for him. It seems that the last time he had this emotion was the first time he went to a film crew to audition when he was studying at school, and before that was the college entrance examination.

"You don't need to pay too much attention to this. Although there are many people who signed up, many of them are not even considered official chefs. They can get a large number of them on the first day." Shi Qingya said casually.

In fact, even if these people are chefs, he still has confidence in the two children in the family.

Not only does it come from a parent's unconditional trust in their children, but also because the strength of the two of them is indeed very strong.

After Li Hongde's relatively systematic training, although Shi Chengyan has not yet reached the level of a senior chef, he can no longer find any shortcomings. The overall strength is very balanced, and he belongs to an all-round development player.

"It can be said that the culinary association has spent a lot of money this time! It is estimated that most of them are going for the 100 million, and some people may not be there at that time."

100 million is not a small amount for an ordinary person. It is absolutely possible to buy a very good house in the center of a small and medium-sized city. In addition, the official does not have any other requirements for contestants except age.

No, many people signed up with the mentality of joining in the fun.

"I don't know what to compare at that time, so that we can be eliminated efficiently and accurately." Xue Zhen said casually nestling in the sofa.

But no matter what method he took, he didn't panic. After all, if he couldn't pass the audition, he could only invite the old man to participate in the competition.

"I will know tomorrow. Didn't the notice say that we should go to the site at least one to two days before the official start of the audition to register and verify and get our entry certificate, otherwise we will be disqualified and there will be no entry certificate during the audition Can’t even get into the venue.”

This is also a newly added process. Because of the excessive number of applicants, the original event plan was completely disrupted. During this period, the event officials even came up with a new process overnight.

At the beginning, I didn’t intend to control the flow of people in the venue. At that time, I thought that the more people, the more lively the better. Of course, it doesn’t work now. There are only so many contestants, plus the crowd of onlookers. It’s easy to be careless. accident.

"Okay, remember to prepare your ID card and ID photo. Shall we go there tomorrow together or separately?"

"I'm staying at home today, let's go with your car tomorrow." Shi Chengyan has been back to Bei'an City for two or three months, and has never bought a car, because his current life of two points and one line is really not suitable for this. Too urgent.

Here, Shi Chengyan is still preparing for the audition, and there is a new movement in a group chat on his WeChat that no one has spoken to for a long time since the finale.

It is the official group of the "Sky Mirror" crew, which covers almost every slightly more important position in the crew, and the male supporting teacher Cheng Yan is naturally among them.

The content of the news is also very concise, that is, the post-production progress of "Sky Mirror" has passed halfway, and if it goes well, it will be able to start broadcasting after the year after the review is passed.

No matter those in the group know each other or not, they are naturally celebrating the good news at this time.

Shi Chengyan actually doesn't have much sense of reality. After all, this is only the post-production stage, and there are still many links before the broadcast. Based on Shi Chengyan's consistent experience, I really don't think this matter will go as smoothly as the director said.

Of course, he didn't post a message of celebration with everyone in the group either.

He has changed his career. If he hadn't held the final respect for this unfinished job, he might have quit the only crew.

However, it is said that there seems to be a small group of the main actors, directors and screenwriters, and this has nothing to do with Shi Chengyan, the [-]th line.

On the contrary, Xu Zhiheng sent a private chat to Shi Chengyan after receiving the news.

[Xu Zhiheng]: Brother, I heard that the leading actor has already seen the finished film of the first episode, and it seems that the effect is very good. If the review goes well, several TV stations will want to buy this drama.

Xu Zhiheng's words "Brother" are puns, because he did graduate from the same acting school as Shi Chengyan, and he is two years younger than Shi Chengyan.

【Shi Chengyan】: Where did you get so much gossip?

[Xu Zhiheng]: I just joined a movie crew, and the actors in it are all veteran actors. Although I don’t have many roles, I’m just a soy sauce player, but I can occasionally hear them gossip in the crew. Mouth, you know, I have better ears.

As for Xu Zhiheng's gossip, Shi Chengyan listened to it and passed it. It's not a question of believing it or not, the main reason is that even if it's not a lie, Shi Chengyan can't see the film like the protagonist.

[-]th Line Little Transparency has neither the right to choose nor the right to speak.

In fact, his role is still very bright, at least when he plays it, but the specific cut has nothing to do with Shi Chengyan.

If the male protagonist and the second male lead think that he has too many roles, he may be cut. Anyway, editing this kind of thing, you can cut the dead for you.

Shi Chengyan has long learned not to have any expectations, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
