Chapter 139: Manly

There is no one who is not combative with the character of success.

Struggle is everywhere and occurs in all walks of life.

Competing skills between chefs is called a chef battle, which is a big deal in the culinary world.

The time is set in three months. The reason why we have to wait so long is because the matter of Dou Chu is indeed not simple. Preparing the recipe is not difficult, but preparing the ingredients requires seasonal coordination. Many high-end ingredients can only be eaten in a certain season. If they are eaten too early or too late, the quality will be reduced. There are also some top-quality ingredients produced in inaccessible places, making preparation very troublesome.

Cooking is actually a very interesting thing. It's as if an amateur chess player suddenly encounters an active challenge from a top professional chess player. Regardless of winning or losing, it is very enjoyable. What really worries Li Muye is the fundamental reason why Zhou Jing contributed to this matter.

This incident reminded Li Muye of someone.

Liu Qi, a figure who is a formidable rival both in appearance and internal strength, has always been eyeing Zhang Na. The way Zhou Jing looked at him that day reminded Li Muye of Wang Hongye. It is not easy to make such an arrogant woman instantly choose to turn back in anger.

In the past two months, Zhang Na had not been polite to Li Muye, and the food issue was almost entirely left to the restaurant. But I only came to the restaurant seven times in total, and most of the time I ordered over the phone. She focuses all her energy on her professional field and seems to have no intention of falling in love.

Li Muye's requirements are not high, as long as he can watch her enjoy the years in peace and do what she likes, it is enough. But Liu Qi is different. He never stops getting a bouquet of flowers and small gifts every day. The medical staff in the hospital like to come to the restaurant to eat, and everyone talks about it occasionally without envy. Zhang Na has no intention of relenting yet, but Li Muye is worried that a good girl is afraid of stalking a man. What's more, this person also has the support of Shi Zhenzhen and Zhang Li.

Now Li Muye regrets agreeing to Nana to get along as brother and sister. Otherwise, with Brother Xiaoye's thick skin, Xiao Nana might have surrendered long ago.

Judging from Zhou Jing's reaction to Liu Qi that day, she had almost humble feelings for Liu Qi. As a veteran in love, Li Muye asked himself that he would never be wrong about this. Assuming that she came to trouble him at the behest of Liu Qi, in order to force his competitor to leave, this would explain why Zhou Jing took so long to come to trouble after leaving that day. Maybe she said angry words that day, or maybe Zhou Ping and Lin Xiangyu played a role in it.

Zhou Jing's influence in the chef's shop is beyond imagination. In order to find out the details of her opponent, Li Muye went to consult Bai Xue.

Now Bai Xue's feelings towards Li Muye can be described as love-hate. Love comes from the body's desire, while hatred comes from dissatisfaction with his failure to resist the desire. In the final analysis, it still falls on Li Muye.

In the dining room, Li Muye only wore an apron and was cooking delicious food in front of the stove. Bai Xue had just taken a shower and casually put on a towel and sat at the dining table, staring at the beautiful and solid muscles behind the man.

"The Zhou family of Wanghailou is a family of culinary arts. The contemporary descendant Zhou Mingshan is a well-deserved Beidou in the southern cooking world. He has two sons. The eldest son Zhou Weihong has inherited the mantle of cooking. Now he is the chief of Wanghailou and his cooking skills are superb. , whose 29.8cm hat is said to be three points taller than others. His second son, Zhou Weiye, left home at a young age and founded Sihai Kitchen from scratch. All businesses related to food are related to Sihai Kitchen. Zhou Jing and Zhou Ping are both Zhou Weiye children."

Bai Xue fiddled with the tablet and continued to introduce: "Zhou Jing is mainly responsible for the high-end food supply business of Sihai Kitchen. She grew up in the capital. After dropping out of school at the age of sixteen, she got together with a bunch of gangsters and fooled around. Known as the Thirteenth Sister of Daxing, she was detained when she was eighteen years old due to dangerous driving that resulted in one death and three serious injuries. Later, she reached a settlement and was given a suspended sentence. After being grounded at home for one year, she was sent to study in North America. She returned from North America five years ago. After that, he joined the senior management of Sihai Kitchen Industry until now.”

"It seems quite promising." Li Muye said: "Although the information content is a bit vague, it is not difficult to see some details from what she did. Miss Tuesday has a strong personality and decisive actions, but her name is Jing, who is as active as a rabbit. A master who acts without considering the consequences.”

Bai Xue said: "She is just a second-rate figure in the business field. There is really no need for us to establish too comprehensive information on her. However, Zhou Weiye of my father's Sihai Kitchen is really a figure worthy of attention. He has been in the capital for many years and has been low-key but aggressive. Bufan, with his deep strength in the catering industry, has built a very unique and extensive network of relationships, and we don't even know how much wealth Sihai Kitchen has. From this point of view, this person is very special. "

Li Muye played with the kitchen knife in his hand in a fancy way. The handle of the knife had the words "Produced by Sihai Kitchen" written on it. Suddenly I realized that from pots and pans to eight large and small items, this seemingly inconspicuous kitchen actually hid a big business.

"That's not all." Bai Xue obviously understood Li Muye's thinking and continued: "With his relationship with Lin Zhiyong, he also has exclusive supplies from Ziguang Pavilion and the State Guesthouse. Who are the well-known culinary masters from the north and south? Don’t you want to be on the highest stage to show off your skills? So, if you want to stand out in this industry, it’s like dreaming without the word “zhou” engraved on the top of your head.”

Li Muye said: "No wonder Lin Xiangyu has such a big say in front of Zhou Ping. The most critical part of the Zhou family's business is here. In order to please the Zhou family, these cooking masters have their disciples and disciples all over the industry, and they have no excuses for the world. By promoting the products of the kitchen industry, there is no need for any advertising at all, and Sihai Kitchen can easily become the leader in the industry."

Bai Xue said: "I don't know exactly how powerful the Zhou family is, but from an inconspicuous thing, it's not difficult to imagine what's underneath the tip of the iceberg."

"What's the matter?" Li Muye gave her a compliment.

"Three years ago, Zhou Weiye spent a huge sum of 1.2 billion US dollars in North America to buy 51% of the controlling stake in Shuanghua Kitchenware, the North American kitchenware giant." She said with emphasis: "Converted to RMB nearly 1 Tens of billions. As far as we know, among the domestic giants and private enterprises, only a few companies such as Longda Group and Kangda Life Insurance have this strength. Compared with these well-known giants, Since then, Sihai Kitchen has become too unknown."

"Basic, food, housing and transportation, this is not an inconspicuous small business." Li Muye said: "It's just because it's so common that it's easy to be ignored."

Bai Xue said: "I tell you all this just to let you know that your current strength is not enough to compete with others. If you listen to my advice on this matter, you should close your restaurant as soon as possible."

"Although He Xiaoqi is not a business material, with the help of Yuan Chengde, she is enough to support Jin Yuan Zhenghe, and with the support of your channels in Russia, now the old businessmen headed by Shen Peijun do not dare to underestimate her. , Anna Jewelry's specialty store on the Bund is about to open, Jin Yuan Zhenghe's jewelry business has also reached Europe through Shen Peijun's channels, and the breeding farm established by Shen Peijun and Bai Peng in Outer Mongolia is also on track, plus Zhang With the Haichao family’s background in the military, it can be said that your layout in Shanghai’s business district has begun to bear fruit. I think it is too irrational to rashly provoke a powerful enemy at this time.”

"You can't always make seemingly reasonable and correct choices in your life. You have to have a weak point that allows you to be willful occasionally." Li Muye said: "In this way, we can maintain awe of the world and better restrain our own desires. Being dominated by ambition, for me, commercial success is only a part of life, but it is not the most important thing.”

The beef brisket was cooked, and it was delicious and delicious. Li Muye put the vegetables into a bowl, and Bai Xue suddenly stood up and came over from behind. Sushou Ruyi pinched the back hard. Li Muye's muscles were tense. She failed to succeed, but she gave him a light backhand blow and said, "You are a big liar. You have made yourself a Achilles' heel for others, yet you have to ask others to help you for your own Achilles' heel." I don't care if you deal with such a powerful opponent, you must feed me today..."

Li Muye left Bai Xue's house late at night. When he left, Director Bai was as limp as mud and could not even move a little finger. Treating her with banquets and banquets is the most effective way to treat her. Talking about love is a waste of time in front of the experienced Bai Xue. But in front of He Xiaoqi, this move is the only one.

He Xiaoqi returned to live in her villa, and it was already twelve o'clock at night when Li Muye drove over alone.

He House is located in a community developed by Jin Yuan Zhenghe. It has a tall gate and tight security measures. Li Muye greeted him first before he was able to enter smoothly. This is Brother Xiaoye's first visit to the house. There are three servants at home, all of whom are reliable people from his hometown. After being served tea, he wisely avoided it.

He Xiaoqi wore a silk coat, and only a pair of boxer shorts made of the same material on her lower body. It was very casual and homely style, and at the same time a little sexy.

"Didn't you say that you know yourself and know your enemy? Why are you coming here so late?" She asked with some expectation, but deliberately acted arrogantly.

Li Muye was sitting on the sofa, staring at her with squinted eyes, his eyes full of aggression that made people feel like they were going crazy. Although the physical exertion is great, the spirit is somewhat exciting. The strong body honed by continuous martial arts training does not reach the limit easily. This state seems to be suitable for grooming a little virgin.

"From a legal point of view, this is the place where I should be most present during this time." Li Muye picked up an apple and a knife, and skillfully peeled off the peel at an astonishing speed. After peeling it, he handed it to He Xiaoqi. Said: "If you are willing, I would like to come back here often in the future."

"I'll come back soon." He Xiaoqi took the apple and took a bite. She couldn't put it down because of the sweet taste, holding it in her hands and biting it lightly, letting the pulp stay on the tip of her tongue, slowly experiencing the taste. She naturally lay down on the sofa and said: "I am a very stupid girl. I can hardly do anything. Don't expect me to serve you like others."

The sofa was very large, and the petite and exquisite He Xiaoqi was lying on the other side. Although this action was enough to make her sexy in front of the man, she still maintained a shy and reserved distance. Li Muye patted his thigh and motioned for her to lean on it.

"What's the smell?" He Xiaoqi clearly felt something hard pushing against his cheek, but Li Muye didn't seem to make any movement at all. She realized what it was and sniffed it playfully. He asked, tapping his finger.

"Manly." Li Muye grabbed her naughty little hand.

"It's weird, and there's a little bit of fragrance." He Xiaoqi raised her face and looked at Li Muye with a suspicious look on her face.

"Just get used to it in the future." Li Muye said calmly.

"Do I have to take a shower before going to bed?" He Xiaoqi looked at each other for a while, sighed, and looked away.

"Have you not taken a shower before?" Li Muye gently brushed her short hair and said, smelling the refreshing girly fragrance.

"I'm talking about you." He Xiaoqi said, suddenly raising her hand and pinching Li Muye's waist hard.

"It's getting late, it's time to go to bed!" Li Muye suddenly stood up and picked her up and walked to the bedroom... (End of this chapter)
