"What agreement?" Jiang Yang asked.

Xu Zheng said: "If you can make a dish that is more skillful than me within half a month, then I will go to work in Dongliu Restaurant."

"This..." Jiang Yang hesitated a little.

Xu Zheng’s agreement is not simple. You should know that he is a master of cooking skills. It is more difficult to surpass him in knife skills. What’s more, within half a month of Xu Zheng’s request, this will increase the difficulty even more.

Jiang Yang was thinking, but Xu Zheng did not interrupt his thinking, and drank tea on his own.

After a long time, Jiang Yang gritted his teeth and said, "I'm willing to give it a try."

Xu Zheng looked at Jiang Yang. This young man looked very similar to him when he was young but not very similar. When he was young, he would agree to this difficult agreement, but he would not hesitate for a long time like Jiang Yang. At that time, he was full of energy, but unfortunately... Alas~

Xu Zheng stopped thinking and looked at Jiang Yang suddenly said, "This is something I did not do kindly."

Jiang Yang knew what Xu Zheng meant, but he still pursed his lips and didn't say anything.

Xu Zheng continued, "You and Lao Lin are kind to help me, I know this in my heart. However, I still asked you to agree to this agreement, I am not kind in this. But... if you don't do this, I can't get over it. We old men all have their own pride. How could we not be a little proud of those who can become masters of cooking?" At this point, Xu Zheng laughed at himself and continued, "I taught you before, but now I have to rely on your help. I really can't lose this old face. If your knife skills surpass me, then I can still comfort myself. After all, as a master, there is nothing that can't be put down."

After Xu Zheng finished speaking, his heart suddenly felt much more relaxed. These words had been accumulated in his heart for a long time, and now he finally said them in one breath.

As for whether these words are suitable for Jiang Yang, Xu Zheng didn't think so much about it anymore.

After hearing this, Jiang Yang looked a little surprised and relieved.

"Mr. Xu, no matter what, I will do my best. I will come to you again in half a month." Jiang Yang said.

Xu Zheng slowly drank a sip of tea, and Jiang Yang said goodbye and left.

Xu Zheng drank tea alone, cup after cup, and turned the tea into wine.

Lao Lin, I’m afraid I can’t pay it back if you owe you!

Xu Zheng thought of it.

If he has too much debt, he has been through debts throughout his life. He owed this debt, owed that debt, some of whom, some of whom could not be paid off. The debt ruined him for the rest of his life. Even if he became a master of cooking, what could he do? He lived a very failed life.

Xu Zheng shook his head and stopped thinking about those things.

…………

Ren Pengcheng has not been happy these days. He has accumulated too much in his heart to tell others.

He felt that he was no longer pure, and since the so-called plan began, he had become less pure enough. No, perhaps earlier, when he spoke up.

Looking at the implementation of the plan in recent days, Ren Pengcheng felt very complicated. But after a while, his eyes became firmer again.

No matter what means he used, he also wanted to go to another height to see the scenery there.

Ren Pengcheng did not realize that he was a little obsessed with it. In the past, although he would use some means to improve his cooking skills, there was still a bottom line, not like this time.

Soon, a "confidant" of Ren Pengcheng came in to report the progress of the plan with Ren Pengcheng.

Ren Pengcheng looked at the so-called "confidant" and didn't know what he felt. The confidant was his confidant, and it was up to be discussed who it belonged.

"Okay, you go down." Ren Pengcheng said.

"Yes, President." The man walked back a few steps, stood still, and said, "President, news came from over there that the plan could speed up the progress."

Ren Pengcheng said a little strangely: "Didn't you say you should take it slowly? Why do you say you should speed up the progress now?"

The man shook his head and said, "I don't know this. Anyway, it's the news coming from over there, I just conveyed it."

Ren Pengcheng frowned and waved, "Okay, I understand, you go down first."

After saying that, Ren Pengcheng saw that the man had not left and asked again: "What? Do you have something to do?"

The man shook his head and said, "President, what's going on with the progress?"

Ren Pengcheng said: "I will make a decision myself."

"But I've already said that the president doesn't want to speed up the progress? You should know that this is related to your breakthrough in cooking skills." The man said, not at all the attitude of his subordinates towards his superiors.

Ren Pengcheng glared at him and said, "Don't I know? You still need to teach me how to do things?"

The man hurriedly said, "I dare not, I just kindly reminded the president. If the president doesn't appreciate it, I have no choice."

After saying that, the man went down on his own.

Ren Pengcheng was so angry that he threw the pen in his hand hard, and it cracked on the table, everywhere.

Immediately, he packed up the pieces of pens scattered around one by one and threw them all into the trash can.

…………

Jiang Yang was thinking about a question along the way back, that is, how to make a dish with a knife skills exceeding Xu Zheng within half a month.

Jiangyang does not know much about the heavy-handed dishes, and Jiangyang does not think that every dish he knows can surpass Xu Zheng.

Sometimes, although talent is important, hard work is even more important.

Xu Zheng has been immersed in knife skills for decades, but how could Jiang Yang surpass it in just a short time?

Jiang Yang thought about it for a long time but still didn't think of a suitable solution.

He could only decide to practice knife skills during this period to see if there is hope. If there is still no hope at that time, then he still has to go there, at least there will be a beginning and an end.

Jiang Yang thought so and returned to the store.

Yu Zhiyu was preparing things in the kitchen. When he saw Jiang Yang coming back, he greeted him: "Master, are you back? Where have you been going this morning?"

"I went to do something," Jiang Yang responded.

After looking at Yu Zhiyu, he said, "Are you ready?"

Yu Zhiyu smiled and said, "I didn't see you in the store, so I prepared first. I'm almost done."

Jiang Yang nodded and said, "You go and get some more ingredients, and we will open the door earlier today."

Yu Zhiyu looked at Jiang Yang with an incredible look on his face and said, "Master, are you okay? Is your head clamped when I go out early in the morning?"

Jiang Yang looked speechless and said angrily: "You are just pinched on your forehead!"

Yu Zhiyu said: "Master, why do you think of opening the door early today? This does not fit your personality! In the past, you wanted to open the door for an hour and rest for a whole day. Today is incredible."

Jiang Yang said: "I... Forget it, why are you talking to you about this? Go and buy goods quickly, some of them are busy today."

Yu Zhiyu said happily: "Okay, Master, I'll go buy ingredients now."
