In the office, Bao Jin looked at the packed hotel rooms with a smile on his face.
"Old Leopard, what are you doing?" A rough voice sounded from behind.
Leopard Jin didn't even look back: "I'm settling accounts. There have been too many people staying in the hotel recently, and I'm considering freeing up the warehouse and converting it into guest rooms."
Hu Yang walked up and took a look: "Oh, there are so many people. Even the guest room building that was just built not long ago is full."
"Yes, a lot of people from other cities and prefectures have come to Jiuge City recently. Not only our hotel, but also other hotels in the city are almost full."
"Why did so many people come suddenly?" Hu Yang was a little confused: "What happened?"
"These people are all here for the God of Cookery Conference."
"Gathering of Gods of Cookery?"
"You don't know?" Baojin looked up at Huyang: "This is a recent major event in our Jiuge City, and many people know about it."
"I've been in the temple recently, how can I know the news outside."
"Speaking of which, you have been running to the temple recently. Did Brother Bao agree to let you become a priest?"
"No, it's the little ancestor from the temple who is looking for me." Speaking of this, Hu Yang felt a little aggrieved: "I don't know why, but the little ancestor has been asking me to fight recently. I can't refuse, so I can only go.
Already."
"This little ancestor's strength has improved so fast. Just after not seeing her for a while, her fighting skills have improved a lot. I can't even beat her."
"Don't even look at who this person is. He is the favored one of God Chu."
"But she is only a beginner, and I have already broken through to the intermediate level... Forget it, forget about this, tell me quickly, what is going on at this God of Cookery Conference?"
"It's nothing, it's just that the temple has organized a God of Cookery Conference. No matter the city, anyone who is a chef can participate."
"Isn't that a cooking competition? So many people come to a cooking competition?" Hu Yang frowned.
"If you knew the prize for the winner, you wouldn't say that." Leopard Jin said with a smile: "In addition to receiving a generous bonus from the temple and a lost recipe book, the winner of this conference will also receive Chu
A promise from Lord God.”
"No matter what the winner's wish is, as long as Master Chu Shen can achieve it, He will help it come true."
"And not only the winners, but also the chefs who pass the pre-selection of the conference can receive the blessing of Lord Chu Shen, so many chefs come to participate. If I didn't know how to cook, I would like to participate."
Hu Yang still had doubts: "Even if it's a God of Cookery conference, there won't be so many people here, right? Are these people all chefs attending?"
"Who told you these are all chefs?" Leopard Jin's expression was a little strange: "Most of the people are here to eat."
"Eat?" Huyang was stunned.
"Yes, the pre-selected places for the God of Cookery Conference are selected by the public. The temple has set aside a space for these chefs to cook. Anyone who is in Jiuge City can taste it for free. These people are here for this.
of."
"Most people don't usually have the opportunity to meet so many famous chefs and eat the dishes they cook, so many people came, including some gourmets from other provinces."
Hu Yang finally understood and touched his chin: "So I can go too. Do you think I will get beaten if I bring a bucket of food?"
Leopard Gold:……
At the same time, inside the temple.
Chu Ci looked at the crowds of people everywhere in the city with a speechless expression on his face.
"Why are there so many people?"
"Didn't you say that there should be as many people as possible?" Song Bao looked puzzled.
Chu Ci's expression froze.
What he said was correct, but he didn't expect that Song Bao would allow so many people to participate.
Chu Ci just looked at the list of participants and found that there were hundreds of chefs participating in the conference this time, not counting the assistants and apprentices they brought over.
And these people are not all from Chengyang Prefecture, many of them are chefs from other prefectures.
"How on earth did you get so many people?"
Chu Ci was puzzled, was his influence so great? Even people from other provinces came over.
Song Bao touched his head and said with a naive smile: "Thanks to the lost recipe given by Master Chu Shen, otherwise the number of people participating may not be half of the current number."
Good guy, it turns out it was me.
Chu Ci was a little depressed. This lost recipe was one of the knowledge he got from the Enlightenment Fruit. He thought it would be of no use to him, so he gave it to Song Bao as one of the prizes at the God of Cookery Conference.
But he ignored the temptation that recipes can have on a chef.
After learning about the lost recipes, chefs who originally didn't want to participate became interested, and even some chefs who had retired long ago came out to participate.
Forget it, it doesn’t matter if there are many people, the next step is to find Sister Gu.
When Chu Ci came to the God of Cookery shop, he found a group of old men standing at the window in the backstage of the kitchen, craning their necks to look into the kitchen and whispering.
"This method is great. It not only removes the fishy smell, but also retains the original taste of the ingredients and adds freshness. I never thought of it."
"And this knife skill is so superb and ingenious! Oh, I feel so inferior!"
These old men Chu Ci had some impression that they were the same people on the list of the conference that I just saw.
A smile appeared on Chu Ci's face.
His purpose in holding this God of Cookery Conference was not only to make Guhuangyan famous, but also to attract chefs from various places.
As long as these chefs arrive in Jiuge City, they will subconsciously want to know the local food, and they will naturally know the name of the God of Cookery.
Chu Ci believed that Gu Huangyan's amazing cooking skills would be more than enough to conquer these chefs.
As long as some of the chefs who came to participate in the conference learned something like the chefs in Jiuge City, and then taught these skills or recipes to their apprentices, then Gu Huangyan's merits would increase rapidly in the future.
promote.
Thinking of this, Chu Ci stayed aside quietly and did not disturb these old men's "stealing study".
After the store's business hours ended and these old men reluctantly left the store, Chu Ci walked in.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing the Ci of Chu, Gu Huangyan's eyebrows stood up and she became very angry.
"Give me back the beans!"
Those were the spiritual beans she finally found in the mountains, but Chu Ci scooped them all up.
"Ahem, I will pay you back in the future." Chu Ci coughed dryly and changed the subject: "Sister Gu, how are you doing lately?"
I almost forgot, he hasn't planted the beans yet.
"What's going on, you still don't know?" Gu Huangyan sneered, "You arranged this God of Cookery conference, right?"
How could she not know about the recent uproar in the city about the God of Cookery Convention?
Especially since the name of the God of Cookery Convention is so similar to her God of Cookery shop, many customers who come to the shop will talk about it, so even if she doesn't know, she should know it.
"Hey, how's it going? Isn't it awesome?"
Looking at Chu Ci's mean smile, Gu Huangyan wanted to punch him: "Awesome, you big-headed devil! Do you know how much more work I have done recently?"
With so many chefs and gourmets gathered in one place, the pressure on the catering industry in Jiuge City is huge, and many restaurants in the city have been criticized to the point of being completely damaged.
This is especially true for the God of Cookery restaurant, which is the leader of Jiuge City. Some gangsters cannot criticize Guhuangyan's dishes, so they just make a fuss about the environment of the store.
In addition to them, there are many customers who don't know the rules of the shop and don't know the name of Guhuangyan, clamoring for food in the shop.
Of course, they can't have any impact on the store, but these people are like fleas, annoying Gu Huangyan.
"Calm down, at worst, I will arrange for a temple team to come over tomorrow to maintain order in the store." Chu Ci walked forward, pressed Gu Huangyan on the chair, squeezed her shoulders and said with a smile: "This is not to make you early.
Become a god."
Gu Huangyan was a little helpless. She also knew that Chu Ci held this God of Cookery Conference for her sake, otherwise he wouldn't have let the chefs watch her cooking.
"Why are you so persistent in making me a god?" Gu Huangyan asked: "According to the rate at which my merits are growing, even if you don't organize the God of Cookery Conference, I will be able to accumulate enough merits sooner or later, and I will still hope to become a god by then.
"
"But Sister Gu, the earlier you obtain the divine status, the more likely you are to become a middle-ranked god."
"Medium God?" Gu Huangyan shook her head: "How difficult it is to become a Median God, and how many Median Gods are there in the God Realm? Why waste your whole life for that illusory hope."
"Being able to become a true god and live freely for thousands of years is already better than most gods."
"But I am already a middle-level god." Chu Ci looked at Gu Huangyan seriously and said slowly: "I don't want to see Sister Gu die in three or five thousand years."
Gu Huangyan fell silent.
After a long while, she whispered: "When did you break through to the Middle God?"
"Not long ago, I didn't have time to tell you."
After pondering for a while, Gu Huangyan sighed and stood up: "I understand, what should I do?"
A smile appeared on Chu Ci's face.
"It's very simple, you first..."
A few days later, the lively God of Cookery Conference finally kicked off.
This is a gluttonous feast, a carnival in the food world. Many people who love food rush to the God of Food venue early in the morning, wanting to taste the delicious dishes cooked by these chefs and famous chefs from all over the world.
In order to prevent various foods from mixing with each other, Chu Ci specially placed magical shields in various areas of the venue, so that people who came to taste could judge the quality of various dishes to the greatest extent.
In order to attract diners, hundreds of chefs showed off their skills, showing off their knife skills, flipping spoons and pots, and showing off their skills crazily. There was even a chef who relied on his fire power to make flames shoot out three meters high, making people watch.
People are overwhelmed.
But the most important thing about a dish is its taste. No matter how gorgeous the techniques are, it will still be disliked if it turns out to be a dark mess.
In just half a day, some senior gourmets jointly made a list guide, giving a rough evaluation of all participating chefs based on the taste and popularity of the dishes.
As soon as this list came out, it was sought after by everyone, and even some chefs agreed with it.
In addition to those famous chefs who are famous throughout the country, those who can be on the list are some slightly famous chefs.
Basically, only one or two chefs from a city are on the list, and some cities even have no chefs on the list, which illustrates the strictness of this list.
However, what is surprising is that there are six chefs from Jiuge City on this list.
Among these six chefs, except for the famous chefs from Ronghua Restaurant, the other five are little-known chefs, the kind that no one knows about outside Jiuge City.
This caused dissatisfaction among some competing chefs and outside diners, who believed that Jiuge City was taking care of its own people.
But when they went to the area where these five chefs had a meal, they were immediately amazed.
The taste of that dish is something that even some older generation chefs cannot produce.
Many chefs also lamented that Jiuge City is indeed the land of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and so many great chefs appeared in a remote place.
Later they found out that these chefs had all learned their skills at Chef God's Shop and received the true teachings from Chef Gu.
But these chefs shook their heads and said that they had not received the true teachings from Chef Gu, but had only studied for a short period of time and learned a few tricks, so they were regarded as registered disciples.
This shocked and intrigued the chefs who came from afar.
Who is this Chef Gu?
Some chefs also wanted to find Chef Gu's area at the venue, but what surprised them was that the so-called Chef Gu did not attend the conference.
She is a special guest at this conference!
On the temple tower.
Gu Huangyan sat on the top of the tower, looked at the venue in the distance, and wondered: "Why am I a guest?"
She thought that Chu Ci was organizing this God of Cookery Conference to allow her to participate, but so far she has just sat and watched the show.
"It's good to be a guest." Chu Ci said with a smile: "I know your level. Participating in the God of Cookery Conference is just bullying others. Even if you win in the end, it will only increase your reputation, and it will not be of much use."
"This opportunity should be left to others. Wait until the last minute before you appear."
"It's up to you." Gu Huangyan said lazily: "Anyway, I will do whatever you say."
Chu Ci felt a little depressed when he saw Gu Huangyan acting like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water.
Why does it look like he is gaining the status of a god?
After ten days of competition, the God of Cookery Conference went through preliminaries, preliminary rounds, and semi-finals, and finally selected the twelve most powerful chefs.
Each of these twelve chefs has unique skills, including long-established celebrity chefs and talented chefs who came from behind, including famous chefs from Jiuge City.
Among the twelve chefs, the most eye-catching one was an old man who looked to be in his seventies or eighties.
Even in the finals venue, he still squinted his eyes and looked drowsy.
This look makes people doubt whether the old man can still cook with a knife.
In fact, he did not use a knife to cook, because this old man has never used a knife or cooked a dish personally from the beginning of the venue pre-selection to now.
He just relied on words to instruct his apprentices to cook, and this way he reached the finals.
But no one dared to have any objections to this old man, because this old man was well-known in the entire culinary world, and almost all the chefs present did not know him.
