Chapter 344 Chiling


    After seeing off the last guest, Malu looked at the time, it was exactly seven forty.


    ?He Xiaoqian and another female student who came to work part-time cleaned up and went home from get off work.


    Ma Lu also began to prepare to welcome the special guests in the evening and formulate the menu.


    Among the 6-star ingredients, he used the Toon Dancer that he brought back with the Burdock Ninja this time.


    Paired with 8 other activated plants and 7 types of meat, unity is strength.


    For the next 11 dishes, he was lazy and randomly pieced together the leftover ingredients from the restaurant, trying to cope with it.


    Lao Wang glanced at the menu after getting it and asked, "Why choose unity as strength?"


    “Ah, because we just brought back toon, it’s just right for this recipe.”


    “But among the recipes I gave you, there are 27 recipes that include Toon Dancer. Among them, there are 4 recipes that can collect all the ingredients at this stage. Why don’t you choose the other 3 recipes.”


    “Well, I actually didn’t think much about it. After reading the recipe, my first reaction was to choose this.”


    Ma Lu scratched his head and said, "If I have to say the reason, it''s probably because tonight''s guest is a department team building, and unity is strength. It can enhance friendship and bonds, and make the members of a department more closely connected with each other. It feels quite suitable. theirs.”


    Lao Wang nodded, "Your intuition is very keen, and you have initially mastered the principles of formulating the menu. Next, it is time to try to customize the set meal around the same theme."


    "theme?"


    “Yes, just like the menu you helped Chen Zhengyi prepare last time, the first three dishes contain the meaning of spring, summer, and autumn respectively. When they are put together, they create a simple four-season theme.”


    “Cooking is ultimately a kind of creation, just like writing an article. Authors use pen and paper to express, while chefs use the dishes they create.


    "An article needs to revolve around a center, and a banquet also needs to have a theme. Otherwise, no matter how delicious the dishes are, if they are messy, they will just stay on the delicious level and be difficult to bring about deeper touches. .


    “Before, we didn’t have all the ingredients, so it was impossible to talk about a theme. But now that you have brought back a lot of ingredients, you can try to build a theme in the future.


    “This is not easy, but it is an essential skill to become a top chef.”


    "But the problem is, I''m not the chef." Ma Lu said, "How about you make the recipe, and I will be responsible for collecting the ingredients from now on."


    Lao Wang shook his head, "I said that my sector was severely damaged. Strictly speaking, I can no longer be regarded as a cosmic chef.


    “And even if my sector can be restored, as a silicon-based life form, my emotional understanding is naturally inferior to your carbon-based life forms, and it will be difficult for me to make dishes that are enough to impress every diner on my own.


    “But you are different. From the way you solved Yanwu’s test questions before, you can see that you are very talented in cooking.”


    "Who, me?" Malu''s eyes widened, "Are you sure, I will only be able to make noodles when I grow up?"


    "That''s because you have not received professional training. I don''t know if you have noticed it. In fact, you have learned a lot during this period. If you are willing, I can also teach you systematically..."


    “Forget it, it’s better not to,” Malu waved his hand to interrupt Lao Wang, “It’s too hard to cook in the kitchen, and there’s no limelight. I still prefer to be the boss, besides…”


    He hooked Lao Wang''s shoulders and said, "Don''t I still have you? You are right. We are the best partners. From now on, we will still have the same rules. I will collect the ingredients and you will cook. I will also cook according to your requirements." Make the menu."


    “Okay.” Lao Wang didn’t force himself.


    ?Ma Lu then made some adjustments to the menu on hand, trying to stick to one theme as Lao Wang said.


    At 8:25, a Mercury Silver GL8 parked outside the door of the Universe Infinite Canteen. Nine people came down from above, including six men and three women, ranging in age from 20 to 30 years old. They were all wearing black suits.


    ??There are two bald men among them, both of them are over 1m8 tall, with bulging muscles and tattoos on the back of their necks. They look fierce.


    ??Several other people also looked unkind, and even the three women had evil looks on their faces, and even had a strong smell of blood on their bodies.


    Everyone looks like a murderer.


    ??Is this... a gang association, or a killer organization?


    When Ma Lu saw the group of people entering the door, his eyelids couldn''t help but twitch. He also stopped Ma Youyou, who was about to go up to them, and walked over by himself.


    "Good evening."


    “Good evening.” The bald leader was very polite and returned the courtesy. Then he glared at the colleagues behind him with his big copper bell-like eyes and shouted.


    "Why are you standing there? Say hello to the boss. Do you want me to teach you this?"


    ?Then the next moment there was a shout of "Hello boss" in the hall.


    The leader, the bald man, turned his attention to Malu again and said warmly, "We are from Chiling and we have made a reservation for dinner here."


    “Oh, welcome, sit down wherever you want.” Malu pointed to the table in the center of the living room.


    ?However, the bald man did not move when he heard the words. Instead, he put his hand into his pocket and frowned at the same time.


    ?Ma Lu almost thought he was going to pull out a switchblade or a pistol or something next.


    But the bald man took out his hand twice, and finally took out a business card and handed it over with both hands according to business etiquette.


    ?Ma Lu took it, and the first thing that caught his eye was the big man’s name, or nickname—Baduzi.


    ?Then is the position—Producer of the Chiling Project Team of Hakimi Network Technology Co., Ltd.


    Following it is a website link, followed by an advertisement - If you are a man, come to Chiling! Women too.


    There is a picture printed on the back of the business card, which shows a large group of skeletons fighting each other passionately.


    ?Ma Lu was stunned for about two seconds, then asked tentatively, "Are you... a game company?"


    "That''s right." The bald man nodded, and then he smoked, "Boss Ma can come and play the game we made when he has time. It is very realistic and has a high degree of freedom. It is definitely better than other competing products on the market."


    “Oh oh oh, okay.” Malu indicated that he did not smoke, and then took out his business card and exchanged it with Bald Man.


    The bald man then enthusiastically introduced the rest of the group to Ma Lu. He pointed at the other bald man and said, "This is our art teacher, Beigong Meng.


    Then he pointed to a woman with a scar on her face, "This is a numerical planner, a cute teacher today.


    “And the copywriting, little Viagra. This is the level, I’m the best at kindergarten.”


    Choose the cutest names and fight the toughest fights, right?


    ?Ma Lu suppressed the desire to complain in his heart and calmly shook hands with the employees of the Chiling project team.
