Chapter 591 (2/2)
“No. I’m sorry for not being able to help you.” Zhong Lili said apologetically.
“It’s not early. Let’s look for him tomorrow.” Zheng Jiawei said suddenly.
“Alright.” Wu Hai waved his hand to say goodbye to Zhong Lili and then went to the opposite room straightforwardly.
“Sorry for bothering you, Assistant Zhong.” Zheng Jiawei expressed the gratitude courteously before he chased Wu Hai until their room.
Having returned to the room, Wu Hai dropped onto the bed directly and then sighed.
“This guy has barely arrived in Japan, but now goes out. Forget it. Let me sleep now and leave everything to tomorrow.” Wu Hai turned over on the bed.
“Little Hai, we can’t go into the exchange meeting place tomorrow. The auditorium seating isn’t available. The participants are either the government officials or the chefs or their assistant.” Zheng Jiawei looked at Wu Hai and said seriously.
“We can’t go inside? I can be his free assistant.” Wu Hai immediately straightened himself and said earnestly while stroking his small mustaches.
“During the exchange meeting tomorrow, only Japanese chefs will cook while the Chinese chefs are responsible for the taste test rather than cooking.” Zheng Jiawei knew what Wu Hai cared about and thus immediately said.
“Oh, then forget it. Call me when it’s completed. I gotta have a good rest.” Wu Hai lay back on the bed and said carelessly after he heard that.
If Boss Yuan didn’t cook, the exchange meeting meant nothing to him.
“Little Hai, you have a good sleep. When Boss Yuan finishes the work today, I will come to call you.” Zheng Jiawei closed the door meticulously.
Though Wu Hai came to Japan, he didn’t even cast a glance at Yuan Zhou. And at the other side, Yuan Zhou’s trip to the izakaya wasn’t going smoothly, either.
Before he set out for Japan, Yuan Zhou had found his brother Sun Ming to inquire about the delicacies concealed in the izakaya in Japan.
There were a total of five izakayas, of which four weren’t in Tokyo. The only one left wasn’t open today. As a result, Yuan Zhou could do nothing but compromise to eat something else.
Essentially, Yuan Zhou wasn’t fond of fun. After the dinner, he returned to the hotel and prepared to attend the exchange meeting on the following day.
It was Yuan Zhou’s habit to sleep sound until the next morning without any break.
Yuan Zhou and other chefs had breakfast together. They only ate a little food to allay their hunger. The following exchange meeting was the most important feast.
“The first procedure is to taste the dishes and then bring out the merits and demerits. Since you all know about that, I won’t say anything more. If there’s any problem or you need something, just come tome.” Zhong Lili made clear her specific work again.
“Assistant Zhong, you don’t need to say so many times. It’s unnecessary to repeat the same word over and over.” A middle-aged man, who was dressed in the Chinese tunic suit and had grey hair, frowned and said.
“I’m sorry. I just fear that I don’t make myself understood. This way, please.” Zhong Lili lowered the head and apologized at once. Then she led the way obediently.
“Never mind. The exchange meeting is very important.” Li Minghui tried to mediate the dispute.
“Boss Yuan, the Japanese people are good at cooking fishes. This time, you must say something penetrating to let them know our capabilities.” While Li Minghui was trying to mediate the dispute, Liu Ming talked with Yuan Zhou directly to lighten the atmosphere directly.
“Um. No problem.” Yuan Zhou nodded the head.
However, other chefs at the side wasn’t familiar with Yuan Zhou. Those who were on good terms with Liu Tong naturally started to ask him.
Since they started to talk, the atmosphere was naturally lightened. The bad temper of the grey-haired middle-aged man was overwhelmed, too.
“This person is extremely terrific. The taste of the all-fish banquet cooked by him is marvelous. Wow, the taste…” Liu Tong nevertheless started to describe the all-fish banquet cooked by Yuan Zhou with excitement.
