The beginning is only when you become a chef

Chapter 43 The Curse of the Unpalatable Seal
【? ? ? ? 】

[What is the device in this picture? ]

[I recognize the man in the picture, it's Boss Xia, but that big iron ball burning in the fire, Boss Xia, are you serious?! ]

[When I saw the picture, I suddenly realized why Boss Xia said he wanted to give the brothers some acrobatic work! ]

[My curiosity is so strong that I have to rush to the night market after get off work! ]

[Hey, Boss Xia, you haven't told me where you're going to set up your stall yet? ]

[Xia An: Anyway, it will definitely not be in the Qixing District Night Market. I will announce the specific location of the stall when I get off work at 6 o'clock.]

[As expected of Boss Xia, this anti-gank awareness must be praised! ]

This large group saw a dramatic increase in members after the last night market incident.

However, the group leader Sun Qidong soon realized that the sudden increase in group members was not a good thing, and he urgently closed the application channel a few days ago.

But even so, the newcomers who have come in are of complex composition, including some "undercover reporters".

Thus, the news that the mysterious chef, who had been the number one trending search topic for a few days, was setting up his stall again spread like wildfire in certain circles!

……

Neighboring country, a border city in Southeast Asia.

A backward and dilapidated neighborhood.

In a small restaurant with a Chinese restaurant sign, a fair-faced young man suddenly looked at the @All message that popped up in the group chat with surprise:

"That mysterious chef, after topping the trending searches for a few days, is he finally going to open his stall again?"

His name is Wu Zhu and he is 25 years old.

A Chinese nine-star chef who was forced to live abroad.

It’s not that they can’t return to their homeland, but, in today’s Chinese food world, they, the descendants of the “Tai Chi cooking world,” are simply illegal immigrants, and once they enter the country they will be placed under intensive surveillance.

That's right!

Wu Zhu's grandfather is a [Suzaku Chef].

In the world of Tai Chi cuisine.

Apart from the high-ranking Phoenix Eight Immortals, there is the backbone group of Suzaku chefs.

Chef Suzaku’s counterpart is Chef Lin in the dark cuisine world!

If he hadn't been carrying the "curse", Wu Zhu would have easily made a name for himself in the domestic food industry as the descendant of Chef Lin.

But Wu Zhu has the [unpalatable mark] on his body!
There is an ugly tattoo on his stomach.

The reason why it is a curse is because this tattoo of "Unpalatable Mark" has been there since Wu Zhu can remember.

I was ridiculed and bullied a lot when I was a child because of this.

Lifting up his clothes and staring at the tattoo on his belly, Wu Zhu's expression changed:
"Is this the type of person we are looking for? We have to confirm it with our own eyes before we can make a final conclusion..."

“Besides, recreating ancient dishes may be awesome in this era, but only a true master can make dishes that shine.”

"And such a great man would not be buried even in the most glorious and prosperous era of the Chinese food industry!"

Wu Zhu picked up another phone.

I made international calls to two friends who were far away in North America and Japan.

I heard Wu Zhu say that he wanted to return to China to verify the authenticity of the mysterious chef with his own eyes.

My good friend in North America who is also a descendant of Suzaku Chef said:

"It would be good if you could go there."

Friends from Japan clicked their tongues and added fuel to the fire:
"Isn't the simplest way to identify him the food battle? If he defeats you, a nine-star, in a food battle, it would at least prove that he is not a fraud."

Wu Zhu was silent for a moment and exhaled:

"Shokugeki?"

He clenched his fist and unclenched it, his face very cold: "If there is any hope of removing the curse of [Unpalatable Mark] on my body, I am willing to try any extreme means!"

Phone.

The laughter of the Japanese female friends was full of gloating:
"The food battle is about to begin. Let me know and I'll try my best to be there to cheer you on!"

……

at the same time.

About 5:30 in the afternoon.

Lijiang City Airport.

Erina Nakiri and Alice Nakiri, the two sisters were dressed in casual tourist clothes, wearing sunglasses and masks, covering their faces.

They were pushing their own suitcases.

Accompanying him was a middle-aged man with long red hair, who was answering the phone with one hand in his jeans pocket:

"Commander-in-Chief, we have arrived safely at the terminal of Lijiang City Airport and are about to go out and get a taxi."

"Jiuichiro, I'll leave these two sisters in your care."

Said in an old but deep and powerful voice.

Obviously, this was a call from Totsuki Commander-in-Chief Nakiri Senzaemon.

The "Jiichiro" he mentioned is none other than Saiba Jiichiro, a famous graduate of Totsuki's golden age who has made a name for himself in the international food industry.

"What are you talking about, Commander? After watching the short video you forwarded to me, I am more than willing to do this job!"

Saiba Joichiro smiled and said:
"If it weren't for Gin, who was busy with work at the Totsuki Hotel, he would definitely have snatched this babysitting job from me!"

In the distance, Gin Dojima was cueed by his good friend and suddenly sneezed.

hang up the phone.

Saiba Joichiro looked out at the terminal hall, where the city was gradually covered with a layer of golden sunset.

His eyes were filled with excitement and anticipation.

His name in the food world is [Ashura], also known as [The Wandering Chef].

Even though he was in the third year, he had not officially graduated from Totsuki.

Saiba Shiroichiro has already begun wandering around the world, experiencing the humanities and food culture of various countries.

He also tried to put the flavors of various countries on his plate.

Of course, the biggest regret of Saiba Shiroichiro's study abroad experience was that he walked through the streets and alleys of the Chinese food world in search of legendary dishes.

But after searching for half a year, there was no result.

So, during the day, after watching the short video sent to him by the commander-in-chief.

Caiba Shiroichiro agreed on the spot to be the bodyguard and nanny for the Nakiri sisters on their trip abroad for further studies.

Who can blame him for having so much experience in studying abroad that he can even speak some Chinese?

……

At six in the evening, night began to fall.

Xia An and his female apprentice moved the things onto the electric tricycle one after another.

A serving of rice that's enough for a hundred rice balls.

The cooked soup and ingredients were packed into several sealed stainless steel barrels.

Then disassemble the alloy frame and a set of Qimen kitchen utensils and load them into the car.

There are also portable and mobile high-fire stoves.

The modified electric tricycle is almost overwhelmed!

Arrange for Midori and Xiaoxi to take an online-hailing car.

Xia An did not forget to post a formal stall opening notice in the foodie chat group:

"We'll be setting up a stall at the Zun Shen Temple Night Market today!"

After the stall location is revealed.

In the communication group, the atmosphere exploded again.

Also, because of the large group, the newcomers are a mixed bunch.

When Xia An rode the electric tricycle to the night market.

The news spread like wildfire on Douyin:

"Breaking news! The mysterious night market stall owner is setting up his stall again!"

"The man who topped Douyin's trending search list, will he perform the Fierce Ice Fresh Sea Bream Mountain at his stall this time?"

"This wave, the Lijiang Municipal Culture and Tourism Bureau must be laughing so hard!"

"The Culture and Tourism Bureau has something to say. I'm confused. My promotional video hasn't even been edited yet, so why is the tourism industry about to usher in a flood of wealth?"

Many Douyin accounts took the opportunity to take advantage of the popularity.

Many tourists in Lijiang City clicked on these short videos after hearing the news.

Then I felt disappointed and angry.

Talk about a hook!

So long-winded!
You just won’t tell me where the mysterious stall owner is setting up his stall, right?

Trick us into coming in and just take advantage of the traffic!
As a result, the reply and comment sections of these short videos were filled with curses.

……

Zun Shen Temple Night Market Street.

Xia An just arrived at a street where he could set up a stall on his electric tricycle.

"Boss Xia is here!"

I don’t know which group member shouted in a very loud voice.

In an instant, hundreds of group members who had been waiting in the street started to move at the same time.

They did not surround the vehicle, but instead helped to clear the way. Relying on their numbers, they escorted the electric three-wheeler all the way to a vacant stall area.

Other stall owners who had set up their stalls early witnessed this scene.

My eyeballs are about to pop out.

I'll do it!

Is this some big internet celebrity?
Come to the night market to set up a stall and bring your own high-quality fans?
