Chapter 002 Internship at a Five-Star Hotel

Comrade Lao He glared at Zhou Dong for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh, patting Zhou Dong on the shoulder: "I hope you succeed! If one day you become the chef of the Jiuzhou Ding Shi, don't forget to tell everyone you know that I, He Bi Jin, am your teacher"

Ding, the host has chosen to enter the internship at the Nine Provinces Dining in Chudu, meeting condition three. The system has successfully started... The system is now active, and the host cannot backtrack. If the host fails to fulfill the promise to enter the Nine Provinces Dining internship, a random penalty will be imposed...

Classmate Zhou, your attitude is quite problematic. I cannot concern myself with your desire to graduate smoothly, but you cannot hold back the entire class, can you? Do you understand that your actions will affect our class's graduation rate? Huh?

Why should I change my expression? Suddenly realizing that the person before me is special, I estimate that strong-arm tactics will not work, and I must adopt a policy of conciliation. Thus, I change my expression to a smile and say: "Classmate Zhou, your mother is certainly not wrong, but we do not fear challenges; we must also be prepared to face them!"

Although this explanatory text is much more lively and spirited, it still carries a cold, mechanical tone, devoid of any human emotion. This reassures Zhou Dong even more; he has begun to accept the reality of the system's arrival and naturally does not wish for a human-like entity to be behind the system.

The mechanical voice had repeated the question a full five times. Zhou Dong was furious and said, "If you want to choose, then choose! I will fill out this internship application form right now and see if this illusion disappears or not"

As soon as the thoughts of the I Ching stirred, the gift bag transformed into a shimmering golden book, on which a line of small text was written—'Master Level Vegetable Washing'

This skill book transformed into a golden light that surged into Zhou Dong's mind, instantly presenting a variety of ingredients, whether they be meat or vegetables, those that fly in the sky, run on the ground, swim in the water, or lie in the grass, all appearing before Zhou Dong's eyes. Various corresponding vegetable washing techniques emerged in his mind like scenes from a movie.

Is this system really true? It seems there is no harm in trying it out

After laughing heartily, he said: "You little rascal, although you are quite annoying, the teacher must admit that you are something else! You have guts!"

The cold, mechanical voice lacked any trace of humanity, and Zhou Dong immediately became more agitated. Damn illusion! The medication hasn't stopped, so why is it getting worse?

In the face of the rigorous challenges of the Nine Provinces Dining, are you sure you are fully prepared? Listen to the teacher...

Becoming an intern chef at Jiuzhou Ding Shi will meet the system activation conditions. Does the host wish to make a selection

On the table, Shuashua wrote the four characters 'Jiuzhou Dingshi', and Zhou Dong secretly sneered

Comrade Lao He was very agitated, nearly spitting saliva onto Zhou Dong's face

No need for that

Please claim your beginner's gift bag

A flash of brilliance appeared before me, and beneath the golden explanatory text was an object resembling a pouch, very much like an item package in a game

Master-level vegetable washing techniques may not enhance the quality of the food, but they can maximize the inherent flavors of the ingredients without compromising their integrity

His attending physician stated that auditory and visual hallucinations lack logical coherence; in other words, once he chose Jiuzhou Ding Shi as his internship platform, this 'systemic illusion' would naturally dissipate due to the absence of a continuing logic, allowing him to temporarily escape from his illness

Comrade Lao He was quite troubled; the person he was most worried about indeed got into trouble. When he walked over to Zhou Dong's side and took a look, he found that this guy had indeed chosen 'Jiuzhou Ding Shi' as his internship platform, which was quite unfortunate

You ... ...

Zhou Dong's brows furrowed tighter and tighter

Washing pork is not as simple as it seems; the previous methods truly wasted good quality meat

Isn't this mad chef system an illusion

Alas, I have encountered unworthy individuals; this is indeed my misfortune in meeting people

Is there really a beginner's gift pack?

It turns out that this is how to wash chrysanthemum greens without damaging the leaves and stems

Shatter like a beautiful soap bubble, you detestable illusion

Zhou Dong shook his head: "It's settled then, Jiuzhou Ding Shi, I think it is very suitable!"

Claim the beginner's gift package

This illusion is indeed terrifying

He Bi Jin forcefully used the Lion's Roar technique to pull Zhou Dong back to reality. After confirming that the young man was awake, He Bi Jin heavily tapped the internship application form with his finger and shouted loudly: "What’s the matter? Did I waste half a day talking for nothing? In the end, you still chose Jiuzhou Ding Shi! Are you not wanting to smoothly pass the internship period and graduate?"

Whether the host chooses ... ...

Can Zhou Dong successfully complete his internship at Jiuzhou Dingshi? Lao He wouldn't even dare to think about it. What kind of place is Jiuzhou Dingshi? Even the top student at Qingxiang would struggle to get through, let alone this kid in front of him

Old He felt a pang in his chest; this kid has indeed gone mad again! ... How unfortunate for my class with a 100% graduation rate in culinary skills ...

Young one, begin your journey to becoming a culinary master starting from washing vegetables

Joking aside, since the system truly exists, Zhou Dong would naturally not give it up for anything. At this moment, if he were to change his mind, who knows whether the already activated system would retract. He does indeed suffer from depression, but that does not mean he lacks intelligence.

Zhou Dong, Zhou Dong! What are you thinking? Wake up!

Do not underestimate washing vegetables. An ordinary chef may not pay much attention to it, but a true culinary master knows that it all starts with washing the vegetables

Zhou Dong stared at Comrade He for a while, then said slowly: "My mother said that a real man must face challenges head-on. Even when faced with the great feast of the Nine Provinces, I will not shy away!"

What have I, Old He, done to provoke anyone? I just hope that the whole class can graduate smoothly and receive a substantial year-end bonus. But you, you just have to play with my heart, you little rascal!

A brand new status bar appeared before Zhou Dong, currently displaying only one piece of data: Master-level vegetable washing 0 / 3000 (upgrading will yield Perfect-level vegetable washing)
