Early the next morning, Jiang Yichen drove Xiaojia to the Chinese Medical Center to continue treatment. ¡Ê¨J, After more than half a month of treatment, Su Xiaojia may have developed a certain degree of tolerance to the bee sting. She seems to have become more accustomed to it, and it is not as painful as it was at the beginning. This made Jiang Yichen feel a little more relaxed. To be honest, every time he saw Xiaojia suffer, it really made him feel bad. Arrive at the Chinese Medical Center and find Dr. Zhang Wenhao in the second acupuncture room on the first floor. He will perform the bee sting operation. After finishing the matter, Dr. Zhang Wenhao told Jiang Yichen and Dr. Tang that he had discussed with Dr. Tang and the treatment would be suspended for a month. As for the reason, it is because after many days of stinging, bee venom accumulates in the body to a certain amount, and side effects begin to appear. For safety reasons, the body needs to be absorbed and digested. Since it is the doctor¡¯s opinion, as a patient, you can only follow it. After leaving the Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic, Su Xiaojia patted her chest with a relieved expression on her face. She told Jiang Yichen that Lan Haixing was cleaning up the new store during this time and was very busy all day long. The treatment was suspended so there was no need to waste time. "Is it because you're afraid of pain?" Jiang Yichen joked as he opened the door and got in the car, using the key to start the ignition. Su Xiaojia was about to deny it, but seeing the smile in his eyes, she stopped paying attention and tilted her head to the side of the car window to look at the street scene outside. After sending Su Xiaojia to Lan Haixing, Jiang Yichen drove back to Dingxiang Garden. On the way, he received a call from Zhang Fenglan, telling him that the closed small food processing factory mentioned last time had been negotiated. It was located in Xiushui Street, not far from the current No. 17 Courtyard. Because the boss was anxious for money, the price was relatively low, which was generally a good deal. The contract has been drawn up, just before it is signed. As the boss, please ask him to go and see the scene, so that everyone can feel more at ease. This request was reasonable and reasonable, so Jiang Yichen agreed, turned the steering wheel, and drove towards Xiushui Lane. Before noon, Jiang Yichen, accompanied by Zhang Fenglan, visited the food processing factory. The two-story production workshop of more than 500 square meters, the yard of nearly 200 square meters, the traffic conditions inside and outside the gate and the sanitary conditions of the surrounding environment are all acceptable. The quality of the food processing assembly line equipment is 60 to 70% new. After negotiation, it will cost more than 300,000 yuan to take over the entire equipment, including cabinets, seats and other furniture. As for the rent, since it is already winter, after consultation with the landlord, the other party agreed to give up the vacancy period for one and a half months. But the condition is that a lease contract of more than three years must be signed. Zhang Fenglan also told him that with a slight modification of the assembly line in the workshop, automatic production of thousand-layer cakes can be carried out. Compared with the current semi-manual workshop-style production method, the efficiency will be greatly improved and the food quality can be better guaranteed. stability. Jiang Yichen nodded after listening. Thousand-layer cakes are positioned at the mid-range consumer level, and the automated mass production model is obviously the most suitable. And the price of complete sets of equipment is not expensive. So be it. So, he made the final decision. Let Zhang Fenglan and Qingqing go and sign the contract together. There are still many things to do in the future, such as modifying and debugging equipment, formulating production processes and rules and regulations, organizing factory buildings, arranging personnel, selecting the best and hiring old employees, etc. It is estimated that Zhang Fenglan will be busy for a long time. In addition, it is already the beginning of December, and increasing the production of supporting seasonings will have to wait until next spring, so there is no need to rush for the above-mentioned matters. The day passed by in a hurry. It¡¯s the day of the cooking competition finals. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? was full of stomach, so I called him to urge him to leave early. VIP tickets for this last show were not easy to get, and it would be a pity if he was delayed by traffic jams. Everything must start well and end well. The final is not to be missed. So Jiang Yichen asked Detao to get on his horse and drove together to Wujiaqiao Street. The three of them still met at the door of the workers' club auditorium and entered with divided tickets. This time, the VIP seats are still in the second row, but they are slightly further away. There were more spectators than last time, and the seats were almost full. Since there is only one game today, it is short and a bit monotonous. So the organizing committee specially arranged several sets of singing and dancing performances before the official start of the competition, and invited famous artists in Linjiang City. The artists performed hard on the stage, and the audience shouted, clap, and applauded, and the atmosphere was quite lively. ¡° However, Jiang Yichen doesn¡¯t pay much attention to the city¡¯s cultural trends, so he doesn¡¯t know almost anyone above. After a while, people began to take their seats in the judges¡¯ and guest seats in the front row. He glanced around and saw that the judges were still the same old faces. In the guest room, the short, fat man with multiple chins, Boss Cui, was also here.He was watching the song and dance show with great interest, and his right palm was still tapping on the armrest of his seat from time to time. His face was red and he looked in good spirits. As for the boss Zhou who had a dispute with the judges last time and had a long face and triangular eyes, he did not appear. According to the rules of the conference, the third and fourth places will not be scheduled for separate games, but will be ranked according to the results of the players in the semi-finals. In this way, Chef Zhang Yunfeng, who scored 57 points, has won the third place and will be on stage to receive the award at the final award ceremony. After the song and dance show, the artists bowed and left, and the cooking competition officially began. The final is between Master Zhao Hongsheng, No. 32, and Master He Chengye, representative of Juxian Building, No. 28. Entering this stage, the two can be said to be the lucky ones among many cooking experts. The main event this time is grouper, and the two contestants unanimously chose the dish that best reflects the original flavor of the ingredients, steamed grouper. In order to sprint towards the championship, both masters tried their best to make the scene exciting and exciting. The audience in the audience feasted their eyes and cheered for the superb skills of the contestants from time to time. The competition, which lasted for more than an hour, ended unknowingly, but the final result was a bit regretful. Chef Zhao lost by only one point, fifty-eight to fifty-nine, and just missed the golden chef's hat, which symbolizes the highest honor of a chef. runner up. Even so, the fat boss Cui did not look displeased at all. He applauded enthusiastically and kept a smile on his face. Next, the award ceremony will be held, and President Luo of the Municipal Gourmet Association will award trophies and award certificates to the top three contestants. Then there was a speech by the leader of the Municipal Culture Bureau, congratulating the winning contestants and how to promote the food culture of Lingjiang City and strive to be a vanguard in the construction of socialist spiritual civilization. However, Jiang Yichen noticed that until Master Zhang Yunfeng stood on the podium as the third runner-up, there was still no sign of Boss Zhou from Huanglong Seafood City. It seemed that the old saying was true, some are happy and some are sad. ah. After the award ceremony ended, Jiang Yichen and his two companions got up and walked to the exit of the auditorium together. "Mr. Jiang, please stay." Suddenly, a man's voice came from behind. Jiang Yichen stopped and turned around to look, and found that it was the fat boss Cui who was rushing over, the flesh on his chin trembling. "Are you Mr. Jiang?" Boss Cui walked up to him and asked while looking around. "It's me." Jiang Yichen nodded. "I am Cui Maocai from Jinjiang Fishing Port Restaurant. This is my business card." Boss Cui introduced himself, took out a business card, and handed it to Jiang Yichen with both hands in a very respectful manner. When the other party took it, he extended the invitation with a smile: "That's it, it's getting late now. The shop has some wine, and I would like to invite you to have a casual meal. Please be sure to appreciate it." Just as Jiang Yichen looked at his hand When he hesitated slightly, Boss Cui turned his eyes to the side and saw Belly Yuan who turned around. "Oh, Mr. Du is here too, that's great, let's all get together." "Haha, when did Boss Cui become so generous?" he joked with a round belly. "Mr. Du is really good at joking." So, with the help of Wei Yuan, Jiang Yichen couldn't save face and had to agree. Boss Cui was very satisfied and said he would be waiting in the store before turning around and leaving. Then, Duanyuan drove his Buick Regal to lead the way, and the two cars headed to the Jinjiang Fishing Port Restaurant located on Wanquan Road, Nancheng District. Jiang Yichen sat in the passenger seat of Tiguan, looking at the street scene outside. Boss Cui is treating him to a treat. Needless to say, Chef Zhao must have told him the matter. It¡¯s probably nothing more than wanting to express his gratitude. (To be continued)
