Chapter 194 Give them the whole ruthless
I look down on Wang Yong, after all, I am just a junior chef. According to the rules of the court, I don’t even have the qualification to be a county chef.
Cao Cao actually asked someone who didn't even have the qualifications of an intermediate chef to take on a position like a chef. And depending on the situation, he may not be recommended as an imperial chef in the future. In her (their)'s opinion, this is the most ridiculous thing.
Those who have always served as imperial chefs are basically super-level chefs, and the lowest-level senior chefs are also third-grade senior chefs. It is simply the most unreasonable thing to ask a junior chef to serve as imperial chefs. From a young age, Cao Cao's ability to recognize and employ people is not much better...
With this idea, everyone came to the kitchen and found a place to sit down. As Xun Yu said, everyone was exhausted and there was no food on the road. Li Jue could allow himself and these civil officials to leave, but the imperial chef detained them. No one had eaten anything good along the way, especially now, they were all hungry.
"What kind of porridge is this? Is it rotten or what?" Someone ate the porridge of lean meat, and then asked angrily as soon as he took a bite. The anger was not because of the taste of the porridge, but because he thought that he was a serious official who had been neglected.
"Cleavened egg lean meat porridge!" Wang Yongke couldn't stand it. The porridge was made by him and was carefully cooked. The taste was perfect. The main reason was that others didn't like the taste of the peeled egg, and he couldn't control it.
But if you don’t like it, this direct contempt attitude made him a little unhappy. So he stepped forward and introduced: "I used the pickled eggs to pickle duck eggs with a special smell. This taste is like this, and people who like it will naturally like it. If you don’t like it, you can change it to pork ribs and shrimp porridge."
"Did your tongue break?" The Great Han Yueqi Captain Wang Zifu (also called Wang Fu, the name of "Book Ziyou") came out directly, "This egg is pickled to taste like this, and it is actually used to cook it?"
"Ziyou!" Huangfu Song came forward and shouted to him, "Don't do this, this porridge, especially this peeled egg, tastes special, but after savoring it slowly, it still has a different taste."
Obviously, some people like peeled eggs. They are used to the taste after savoring them slowly. After getting used to them, they actually feel that the taste is pretty good. The porridge is soft and glutinous, and the peeled eggs are as elastic as jelly, which is a rare porridge product.
"So, in other words..." Lu Zhi tasted it slowly. When he first ate it, he did feel like he was pregnant. But after savoring it carefully, he found that it was the taste. After getting used to it, he found that the taste was pretty good, "It's actually OK, not that bad."
"Speaking of it..." Yang Biao suddenly remembered something, put down the bowl and looked at Wang Yong, "You said your name is Wang Yong? If I remember correctly, my father wrote a letter some time ago, saying that he had accepted a disciple in Zhencheng..."
At this time, everyone immediately looked at Wang Yong. Yang Biao's father was Yang Ci, the former imperial chef. If Wang Yong was really his disciple, his skills should be good, and the key was to be considered his own people.
No matter how high their status was in the court before, they belonged to foreign forces here. And this is Cao Cao's territory, and their previous advantages have no meaning. At this time, if Wang Yong can use Wang Yong as a bridge to penetrate Cao Cao, it will be beneficial to them.
At least, it is not so passive to pass the words to Your Majesty in private. It is even necessary that it is good to be able to use Wang Yong to pick up Your Majesty.
"Indeed, I am currently studying under Master Yang. However, Zhencheng is a bit far from Xu County, and nothing has been built. Yong doesn't want him to come here to suffer, so he hopes to build it first and then take him over." Wang Yong did not hide it when he heard this, after all, there was no need.
"Indeed, he is old and is not suitable for continuing to suffer... How is Zude now?" Yang Biao asked with some concern. After all, it is said that the Yang family chef's talent is closest to Yang Ci's existence.
"My junior sister works as a chef in Zhencheng, and is now mainly responsible for the food issues of the left-behind officials in Zhencheng." Wang Yong replied.
"Cough... your name is a little problem..." Yang Biao coughed lightly after hearing this, "Although you are entering one after another, since you call your father the master, then Dezu should be your nephew. Calling a junior sister is a mess of his generation..."
Indeed, from Yang Biao's perspective, Wang Yong should call him "Senior Brother", and then Yang Xiu is considered "Senior Nephew". Otherwise, if Yang Xiu becomes the junior sister, then Yang Biao is not the uncle of the master, so Yang Ci will become the master!
"Haha, there is nothing we can do about it..." Lu Zhi smiled, "Even we didn't expect that Wenxian did not learn cooking skills, but became a civil servant. Now, Dezu has joined Yang Ci's disciple. According to the order, Chef Wang should indeed call her junior sister. As for you, you can only make your own friends, there is no need to be so entangled."
"That's right..." Yang Biao also felt a little relieved after hearing this.
"Oh..." Xun Yu naturally took their faces and his attitude changed so much that it was impossible to notice. What these people had in mind could probably guess? I have to say that Yang Ci took Wang Yong as a disciple's move, which was indeed a miraculous effect at this stage.
However, these people looked at Wang Yong very well for Yang Ci's sake, and probably did not overestimate his cooking skills. Calculate the time, it took only less than a year for Yang Ci to go to Zhencheng. How much could Wang Yong learn in a year? If he was really talented, he might have been an intermediate chef, but he was just a junior chef, so it would not be surprising that he was underestimated.
"Auntie, you seem to be having some bad idea..." Xun You came to Xun Yu, "From the beginning, they deliberately asked them to underestimate this chef Wang. What are you planning to do?"
"Oh?" Xun Yu pretended to be stupid, "Have I done anything deliberately? I just said my own ideas. I really don't like the smell of this kind of peeled egg."
"Not to mention my aunt's bad taste, those who followed him were important officials of the Han Dynasty. They themselves have high reputations. Even if they are governor Cao, they may not be able to face it easily. If you are not cautious at this time, something will happen." Xun You whispered, "But the taste of the peeled eggs... is indeed not very good..."
"I am worthy of being my niece!" Xun Yu was very satisfied with Xun You's answer. He is worthy of being a family and has similar tastes.
After breakfast, officials from Guanzhong were divided into two groups. One group had a family situation that was not optimistic, or the family business was in Guanzhong, so they could not rely on their families to supplement it, so they planned to stay and help build Xu County in exchange for salary and residence.
Another group of existences like Lu Zhi do not need to consider staying, and plan to go to Zhencheng to meet the Emperor of Han. However, the departure is not something that can be done on the same day. Today, we must still stay in Xu County for one night.
So after the meal, Xun Yu privately found Wang Yong: "Tonight's supper is the key. Make some delicious food and treat these guests from Guanzhong well... How to do it!"
"In this case, I have to think about the menu a little bit..." Wang Yong thought for a while and agreed.
