From selling box lunches to becoming a famous Chinese chef

Chapter 181 Master is coming back

After Feng Zhengming accepted the invitation from Master Wang, he went to Jubinyuan to discuss and exchange ideas with the young chefs there.

The news quickly spread throughout the Springs City culinary community.

The culinary scene in Quancheng is naturally diverse.

For example, most young chefs in some traditional Quancheng restaurants look down upon Feng Zhengming.

The middle-aged generation of chefs really paid more attention to Feng Zhengming's exchange with Jubinyuan.

Because for today's middle-aged generation of chefs in the back kitchens of large restaurants.

Feng Zhengming may be about the same age as his disciples and apprentices, but from a teacher-student perspective, Feng Zhengming and they are the same generation of chefs.

For the older generation of chefs in major restaurants, they are happy to see such discussions and exchanges.

Several veteran chefs even contacted Master Wang and Master Yan respectively.

They all expressed that they valued this exchange of ideas.

Several other masters who were of the same generation as Yan and Wang expressed their hope that their disciples could have an opportunity to learn and communicate with Yan and Wang's disciples.

When Li Huidong learned the news, he only found out after receiving a call from his master.

"Master, do you mean that you are coming this time?"

The master on the other side of the phone said, "I must go there. Your junior brother has promised you, Uncle Wang, that I will naturally go over and stand up for your junior brother. Otherwise, it won't be enough to support you when the time comes."

Li Huidong was very happy when he heard that Master was going to make a special trip.

"Okay Master, tell me when you will come. Junior Brother and I will pick you up at the station and we will arrange a place for you."

Master said: "Your uncle Wang told me that the time is next Saturday. I will take the train there next week."

Li Huidong said quickly: "Okay, okay, master, I will inform my junior brother shortly."

The master said: "Tell your junior brother to keep a low profile. Don't let Huang Tao lead you astray. It is the last word to keep a low profile and stick to your craft."

Li Huidong said: "We know that Junior Brother is not what he wants this time."

Master said: "Okay, you bring the words first, and I will talk about the rest after I get there."

Li Huidong naturally agreed to the master respectfully.

After hanging up the phone, Li Huidong quickly told the people in the cafeteria, got on his bicycle and rushed to the South Railway Station alone.

Master's call came near noon, and Li Huidong knew very well that his junior brother must be at South Station.

Feng Zhengming set up a stall at South Railway Station, and soon the vendors setting up stalls next to him looked at him with surprise.

"Master Feng, why are you still here to set up a stall and sell lunch boxes?"

Feng Zhengming asked with a strange look on his face: "Why can't you come? Hasn't the South Station not been evacuated yet? Of course I have to come here at noon every day, business can't be left behind."

The other party was surprised again and said: "I heard that you are going to Jubinyuan to play in the gym. You are so good at craftsmanship, and you are here to set up a stall and sell boxed lunches?"

Feng Zhengming also looked surprised when he heard this, and then he said: "I'm not going to Jubinyuan to play."

The other party said: "Oh, don't hide it, my brother works in Jubinyuan, I have already heard what he said.

My brother said that the old master of Jubinyuan has returned. He is the real master of Jubinyuan. He personally went back to take charge of the kitchen and personally controlled the quality of Jubinyuan’s dishes. He even fired several young apprentices and started a new one. The kitchen was reorganized and there was no deviation in the quality control of the dishes. "

Speaking of this, the other party looked serious: "My brother said that even the master of Jubinyuan was scolded for several days."

Feng Zhengming heard what the other party said about having a nose and eyes, but he didn't know what to say?

After thinking about it carefully, Feng Zhengming said: "That doesn't mean that I want to play in the gym. My skills are definitely not as good as those of the masters from Jubinyuan."

The other party said firmly: "Master Feng, please stop being modest. Who doesn't know now that your craftsmanship is well-known in Quancheng? My brother also said that the master of Jubinyuan personally said that we should deal with you well when you go to Jubinyuan." Let’s discuss and communicate with them.” When this merchant said this, he naturally attracted the attention of other merchants and even some train station passengers.

Both the vendors and tourists around him were listening to Feng Zhengming as if they were telling a story.

When Feng Zhengming saw that the other party said this, he obviously really knew the inside story.

He could only say: "It's not that exaggerated. It was indeed Jubinyuan who invited me to have a discussion and exchange. It was just a discussion and exchange on cooking skills, not a competition."

When Feng Zhengming admitted this, the crowd watching and listening to the story instantly let out an exclamation of surprise.

"It's really amazing that such a young person can be invited to Jubin Garden for discussion and exchange."

"Hahaha, you guys from out of town don't know that Master Feng is a man of the hour in our Quan City."

"Yeah, despite his young age, he sells meat, pig's trotters and lunch boxes at the train station. In fact, his craftsmanship is very good."

"If you go to the city and have a meal at Feng's Restaurant, you will understand how good Master Feng's craftsmanship is."

There are also some local people in Quancheng who are talking about Jubin Garden.

"I'm quite surprised. Why has the food in Jubinyuan suddenly become so good recently?"

"It turns out it's because of the pressure from Master Xiao Feng."

"Hahaha, come on, Master Xiao Feng, you must look good to the chefs in Jubinyuan."

"Yes, teach them a lesson."

When everyone said this, it really seemed like Feng Zhengming was going to play at Jubinyuan.

Feng Zhengming was really dumbfounded. He could only continue to explain: "Don't misunderstand me. I really didn't go to compete in the restaurant. I just went to Jubinyuan to exchange ideas on cooking skills. Although we are all in the same industry, my master I have some connections with the seniors at Jubinyuan, so I was invited to discuss and exchange ideas.”

As a result, Feng Zhengming’s explanation allowed some people to capture some of the information in his words.

"I see. Master Xiao Feng didn't expect that at such a young age, your master would be the same generation as Master Jubinyuan."

"Doesn't that mean that Master Feng is the uncle of those young chefs in Jubinyuan?"

"Wow, this is really a show."

"The young master from Jubinyuan is selling lunch boxes at the train station? Isn't this a bit incredible?"

Most people gathered around Feng Zhengming's stall did find it a bit strange.

Even the eldest sister Wei Xiuling, who sells soda at a stall next to Feng Zhengming, was surprised.

"Xiao Feng didn't expect you to be so senior."

Feng Zhengming said: "The eldest sister has a higher seniority because my master is more powerful. I just benefited from the master's favor."

Just as he was talking, Li Huidong came over, pushed aside the crowd and said, "Master is coming, Master is coming back."

When Feng Zhengming saw his senior brother and heard his words, he was stunned at first, and then he was also very excited.

"Really? Master is coming back?"

Li Huidong said: "Isn't it your boy who made the news? You and Uncle Wang agreed to go to Jubin Garden for discussion and exchange. Why didn't you tell me? Master should call me to tell me."

Feng Zhengming was a little embarrassed and said: "I thought Uncle Wang just wanted me to see it."

Li Huidong said: "You, you, are really leisurely, and you still have the energy to sell lunch boxes at noon."

Then the senior brother smiled again and said: "It's quite good. You look very relaxed. You go into battle lightly and cook the dishes well."
