I'm really strong after the divorce

Chapter 211
Coricchio said: "The chef I brought will cook Chinese food, Shu Cheng will cook Western food, and you and I will be the judges."

"I am a person with great taste in food, trust me, I will not take sides."

"I'm sure you won't either."

Ke Lijun pondered for a moment, then asked, "I have to ask Shu Cheng."

Coricchio made a gesture of excuse.

Ke Lijun got up, went to the next room, and sent a message to Shu Cheng: "Is it convenient to make a phone call? I have something to ask for your help."

Shu Cheng had already taken a bath, ate strawberries, hugged Shu Tongtong and Ke Xue, and was watching SpongeBob SquarePants.

After Shu Tongtong watched two episodes of SpongeBob SquarePants two days ago, she planned to finish watching this first.

Shu Cheng has no objection, he sees everything the same, anyway, he relaxes before going to bed.

The same is true for Ke Xue, she is a husband control, as long as she can hold Shu Cheng, her daughter can watch whatever she wants.

hum.

After Shu Cheng saw the news, he went back in seconds: "Yes."

talking.

Shu Cheng sat up and said to Ke Xue, "I'll call my uncle."

"Okay." Ke Xue didn't move, she hugged in another place, and hugged Shu Cheng's thigh with both hands.

Shu Cheng stroked her hair, and then received a call from Ke Lijun.

After connecting.

Ke Lijun simply conveyed Coricchio's words to Shu Cheng.

After listening, Shu Cheng asked, "Can they really make us earn so much more money?"

Ke Lijun hummed, and patiently explained: "Their family has a lot of media."

"The quality of our products is very high. Originally, they sold against their local products, but we don't have an advantage in terms of price. After being washed by black drafts, sales have a great impact."

"Coricchio could have made that much money, maybe even more, if he had helped."

Shu Cheng nodded and asked, "When will the competition be? Where is it?"

Ke Lijun said domineeringly: "This is up to you, you decide the place and time."

He didn't need to negotiate with Coricchio.

This time, Coricchio came here also for profit.

If they wanted to enter the domestic market, they needed Ke Lijun's help.

This is an equal deal.

Ke Lijun's bargaining chip in the negotiation is even heavier than that of Coricchio, or else Ke Lijun went to Europe instead of Coricio.

So the time and place, as long as Shu Cheng said it, Ke Lijun could decide.

The annual income of several hundred million euros is nothing more than that.

Of course, the convenience of the son-in-law should prevail. If Shu Cheng finds it troublesome, Ke Lijun can stop earning the money immediately.

Anyway, if he earns it, he will give it to Shu Cheng and his three cubs.

Shu Cheng thought for a moment, and said, "I want to buy a shop next to it and renovate it. Can a decoration team come over and renovate it quickly?"

He was talking about the fast food restaurant on the right hand side of the door.

The owner of that store is a middle-aged man, and Shu Cheng also knows him, but the relationship is not very close.

Their store is changing hands.

Shu Cheng wanted to buy it.

Now there are two problems in Shucheng's shop.

One is that there are not enough stoves.

The efficiency of cooking is greatly reduced.

The other one is that the kitchen is not closed
It's good for steamed vegetables and steamed buns.

But fried things will smell in the store after cooking.

Especially after the chili oil is fried, the taste will take a long time to dissipate.

Shu Cheng chose to fry the red oil in the afternoon, so that he would have enough time to let the flavor out.

The fast food restaurant next to it is very suitable for Shucheng.

There are 12 stoves, an oven, a fryer, and a steamer, and the kitchen is still closed.

Shucheng can go there to cook vegetables on Mondays, and make steamed buns in his own shop on other days.

And if Shu Cheng wants to cook western food, it's more convenient over there.

Ke Lijun immediately said: "Our own team is available at any time, you just need to just say it."

Everything in the entire group should be used by Shu Cheng.

It has nothing to do with money.

Not to mention that Shucheng bought the store this time because of business.

Even if Shu Cheng wanted to go out to fish and have fun, Ke Lijun was willing to give up his business and arrange someone to help Shu Cheng.

Shu Cheng felt warm in his heart, and said: "That's it, their store is just subletting, so I will rent it first."

"Just change the soft decoration according to the current appearance in my shop, and then replace all the stoves in their kitchen with the best ones, just go to the fire."

"How long will it take?"

Ke Lijun thought for a while and said, "A day or two at most."

Shucheng's request is simpler than when he opened the 002 store.

For fire protection, food safety and other documents, Ke Lijun can also arrange for someone to come and check as soon as possible.

The modification can be completed in a day at the earliest.

In addition to the formalities, it took three days at the slowest.

Shu Cheng said: "That's fine, let's do it like this. After the store over there is improved, we can compare."

"What do I cook, just let him tell me."

Ke Lijun's tone was a bit serious: "Would you choose someone who is good at it?"

Shu Cheng said: "No need, he can just order the dishes in French and Italian dishes, and I can order them all, it doesn't make any difference."

Ke Lijun heaved a sigh of relief and asked, "Then what should they cook?"

Shu Cheng smiled: "Didn't they say that Chinese food is simple? Then give them something simpler."

"what?"

"Wen Si Tofu." Shu Cheng said in a very kind tone.

The corner of Ke Lijun's mouth rose: "This is very good."

Wensi tofu has extremely high requirements on knife skills, so it is shredded with inner fat tofu.

The inner fat tofu is much softer than the northern tofu, and it is also much more brittle, and it is easy to break if you turn it over.

And the tofu must not only be cut into shreds, but also thin enough. The best masters cut the shredded tofu evenly, and can pass through the eye of a needle!
Simple Chinese food?
It's really not difficult.

Just do this.

After negotiating.

Shu Cheng hung up the phone.

Ke Xue looked at Shu Cheng curiously, and asked softly, "What did you say?"

Shu Tongtong was already asleep.

Ke Xue just took the tablet in her hand and turned it off.

Shu Cheng lay down, put his arms around Shu Tongtong, and whispered about Coricchio.

Ke Xue stroked Shu Cheng's hair: "Thank you for your hard work."

Shu Cheng smiled: "I can add a few more troublesome things like this, I like it."

Find a time at noon or afternoon, and compare with the other party.

Not too much time wasted.

You can earn hundreds of millions of euros in one year!
Ke Xue kissed Shu Cheng's side face: "It's better to do it less, don't tire you out."

"You are more important than money, you know?"

Although cooking a meal shouldn't tire Shu Cheng, Ke Xue still doesn't want Shu Cheng to do extra work.

Feeling sorry for my husband sometimes has nothing to do with whether he is tired or not.

"Know it."

Shu Cheng hugged Ke Xue.

Smelling the scent of flowers on her body, Shu Cheng was a little confused, and Ke Xue's pretty face was also a little red.

When Shu Cheng went shopping two days ago, he prepared some supplies and put them in the bedside table.

But not yet.

The decoration has now changed the water and electricity, and the floor is being laid.

Furniture is ready.

Moreover, the downstairs and the opposite side, and even the entire building, are full of Shu Cheng's old customers.

Ke Lijun asked the person in charge to say hello, and after getting permission, the daily renovation time was extended a lot.

It is estimated that there are still 20 days before the decoration can be completed.

Be patient.

Shu Cheng hugged his wife, took a deep breath, and prepared to fall asleep first.

And this time.

Ke Lijun had already returned to the living room.

Coricchio is looking at a painting collected by Ke Lijun.

"Landscape painting, good stuff." Coricchio turned to look at Ke Lijun, "If you win, can you give me this painting?"

Ke Lijun shook his head: "No, but I can give you another one, a still life."

"Morandi's?"

"Yes."

"I like this one better. I like your ink paintings, which are very characteristic. A culture with characteristics is unique." Cokirio said sincerely.

"In a few decades, your paintings will become more and more valuable, just this one, can't you?"

"No."

"Well, forget it, anyway, I have a lot of collections. What about posters? Or history books, it doesn't matter. If you win, you should give me something as a prize."

Cokirio persistently wanted some artwork.

Most of the works of art with relatively high value on the market have already been bought or collected by major art museums.

Ke Lijun is also buying now.

In Xu Mingqiang's team, there are two artists who specialize in helping Ke Lijun find potential young artists in the market and buy their works.

This is all the background.

If there is any problem, it can survive just by selling some artworks accumulated by generations.

And those old works of art can't be bought with money on the market.

That's what Cokyrio wanted.

Ke Lijun didn't want to give it away, so he changed the subject: "I'll compare with you, but we have to decide the time and place."

Cokirio clapped his hands, a little excited: "No problem, but not for too long."

Ke Lijun nodded: "The location is next to Shucheng's store, I guess you can wait for about three days."

Shu Cheng didn't need to prepare either.

Once the store is installed and the conditions for the comparison are met, just start the comparison.

Cokirio nodded and said in French: "Perfect."

After finishing speaking, Cokirio continued: "Do you know who I invited?"

"Who?"

"Jamie Bocuse."

Ke Lijun snorted, "I heard you invested in his restaurant."

Cokilio showed some surprise: "Aren't you afraid?"

Jamie Bocuse, 57 years old this year, is a very famous French chef.

His restaurants have a total of 16 stars and are very famous.

Moreover, he was also a chef at the state banquet level, and he has entertained quite a few powerful people.

And more importantly, Jamie Bocuse is very fond of domestic culture.

He even publicly cooked Chinese food a few times, and the level is not bad.

Cokirio was actually a bit of a cheater.

According to him, he should find a chef with no knowledge of Chinese food.

But he found Jamie.

He thought Ke Lijun would be very angry.

Ke Lijun was very calm: "You can't win."

"So sure?"

Ke Lijun thought for a while, then turned to look at Wang Zhe: "There should be three buns left tonight, take them out."

Wang Zhe felt a bit pained: "Can two be okay?"

Among the three buns, there was one from Wang Zhe and two from Ke Lijun.

Ke Lijun raised his eyebrows.

Wang Zhe finally gave up his buns.

There's no way, the boss has already taken out his own steamed stuffed bun, he can't really keep it, he will really lose his job.

The three buns were placed in a very high-end lacquered wooden lunch box.

"Good stuff." Cokirio's eyes lit up.

He loves the lunch box and the gold flake petals adorning it.

The top luxury goods in China, all kinds of clothes made of hand embroidery and lotus leaf silk, are actually very popular, and the price is not low.

This kind of exquisite feeling, Europe can't make it by itself, but I like it very much.

Ke Lijun said: "This can be given to you, but the real value is the bun inside."

Cojirio opened the lunch box, looked at the cold steamed stuffed bun, shook his head and said, "You don't understand food, this thing tastes good when it's hot."

Ke Lijun said: "No, you don't understand Shucheng, you will know when you go back and taste it."

"If you want it hot, just steam it over water. If you don't want it, it's delicious to eat like this." Cokirio was very disdainful of the three buns, and felt more and more that Ke Lijun had never seen the world.

But the expression on his face was very sincere: "OK, I will try."

Ke Lijun nodded: "Are you ready for the contract?"

Cokirio hummed and snapped his fingers.

A short-haired woman next to him pulled out three documents.

"You and I each have one copy, and the third copy is handed over to an intermediary agency as a guarantee."

Ke Lijun lowered his head and flipped through the three-page contract.

Contract Neko is very simple.

But there are two things that Cokirio didn't say just now.

The first place stipulates how to deal with a draw.

If there is a tie, there is a rematch.

However, the format of the second game will change.

In the second match, the two sides cooked the same dishes, winning two out of three games, and they were anonymous.

Neither Ke Lijun nor Kojirio knew who made which dish.

At the same time, for the second competition, a culinary master recognized by both parties will be invited to participate in the judging together.

The contract also stipulated that if Ke Lijun lost, Ke Lijun would help Kojirio build a factory with a site area of ​​no less than 150 mu around Shanghai City.

And Ke Lijun is going to be wholly-owned.

Ke Lijun was in charge of the land and the construction of the factory.

Ke Lijun happened to have an industrial land nearby.

The price of industrial land is much cheaper. These lands have a total use period of 50 years and cost Ke Lijun 533 billion.

Count the cost of building the factory.

Ke Lijun will lose at most 10 billion.

After thinking for a moment, Ke Lijun signed.

reasonable.

What Cojirio wants is cash, and what he wants is land resources.

So he only needs 10 billion.

What Ke Lijun wants is long-term income, but the market is relatively risky, so Kojirio's asking price is relatively high.

The expected income of 5 million euros per year is written into the contract as a competition prize.

Cokirio also signed.

After the three documents were signed, Cokilio smiled all over his face: "Then I will wait for your news."

"After setting the time, call me two days in advance."

Ke Lijun nodded, then asked, "If the match goes to the second round, who do you plan to call?"

Corkilio had already been chosen, and said, "How is Ge Fangzheng?"

Ke Lijun had never heard of him, so he looked at Wang Zhe.

Wang Zhe said in a low voice: "A very powerful gourmet in China has traveled to many places and written several cookbooks, all of which are almost lost dishes."
