Chapter 151 Brothers and Sisters Are Here
Yue Ning looked at the uncle's dancing hands calmly and attentively.
In her previous life, she complained to her Japanese chef friend that she didn't hate the smell of tonkotsu ramen or the greasiness of teriyaki sauce, but she hated the pretentiousness of teppanyaki chefs.
This made my friend sweat profusely and she had to explain to her that a true Japanese teppanyaki master would not have so many tricks. Every move they made was elegant and precise. People who understand like her would respect them from the bottom of their hearts. But my friend also felt sorry that there are very few such masters. Many people really turned the dance on the iron plate into a juggling on the iron plate.
Now she really wants to tell her friends that she has really met such a master.
The olive wagyu beef from Kagawa Prefecture, grilled under the master's spatula, exudes a charming aroma with the scent of olives.
The beef was roasted to medium-rare. He dropped the knife in his hand onto the beef and cut it open. The small spatula danced, turning the cut sides of the beef over one by one.
It is difficult for Yue Ning to describe such a wonderful sense of rhythm.
The Wagyu beef cubes were fried on all sides until slightly crispy, served on a square porcelain plate, and pushed in front of Yue Ning.
Yue Ning picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks, dipped it in a little sea salt, put it in his mouth, and when it touched his teeth, the beef burst with juice in his mouth, and the butter had a milky aroma with the fragrance of olives.
This temperature is really too much if it’s more, and too little if it’s less.
After eating it dipped in sea salt, dip it in a little bit of their special garlic sauce, it is another delicate and tender taste bud enjoyment.
After this finale dish, there was some butter from the grilled wagyu beef left on the iron plate. The boss simply added a pinch of finely chopped butter, which he fried until golden brown. He then poured a small bowl of rice on it and stir-fried it with the butter grains.
He poured soy sauce on the side, and when the soy sauce hit the hot iron plate, it sizzled and the aroma of the soy sauce spread.
He scooped up the soy sauce with a spatula, poured it on the fried rice, mixed the fried rice evenly, and finally sprinkled it with chopped green onions and divided it into two plates.
Yue Ning took a bite of the fried rice, and the aroma of soy sauce and butter wrapped around the rice grains. The butter grains were not greasy, but crispy and chewy. Yue Ning asked, "Is this the fascia on the outer ring of the sirloin steak?"
"Yes, that's it."
The boss kept listening to Masako Nakajima's translation of Yue Ning's praise for precision. It was really a pleasure to cook for someone who understood him so well.
He had brought them in because of the request of an old customer, and when he sent them out, he felt reluctant to say goodbye. Yue Ning said, "I wonder when Mr. Yanxi will be able to go to Hong Kong City? I hope I will have the opportunity to cook a meal for you myself."
"I'll definitely find time to go."
After saying goodbye to Mr. Yanxi, Yue Ning got on the car. This meal was really perfect except that it was expensive. What a pity! Not all Hong Kong people who travel to Japan can afford a meal that costs 2,000 Hong Kong dollars per person.
Yue Ning was feeling regretful and wondering whether she should help everyone find a substitute. Then, Nakajima Masako said, "Ms. Yue, we have to reshoot the Okonomiyaki tomorrow, and we haven't chosen a store yet. I'm afraid it's too late. What do you think..."
Seeing that Yue Ning was enjoying the meal very much, Masako Nakajima wanted to take advantage of Yue Ning's good mood to communicate with her.
"Too late?"
"Yes, there is not enough time, and it may be difficult to find such a suitable merchant," said Masako Nakajima.
"Yeah?"
When questioned by Yue Ning, Masako Nakajima said: "Ms. Yue, there are indeed many Okonomiyaki shops in Osaka, but..."
Yue Ning ignored her words. The road was not far and they soon arrived at the hotel. Yue Ning opened his eyes and got out of the car.
Masako Nakajima followed and wanted to explain to Yue Ning. Masako Nakajima was troubled because the TV station had promoted this Okonomiyaki restaurant several times and had a good relationship with the TV station.
The boss of this Okonomiyaki restaurant was indeed dissatisfied with Yue Ning's introduction, but more importantly, they wanted to take advantage of the situation and persuade V to follow TS's lead.
Now the people from HTV asked PN to put pressure on them, using the excuse that Yue Ning said something. They could only agree, but still let her take the opportunity to discuss with Yue Ning and not to reshoot.
Before Yue Ning could answer her, he saw Zhong Gu walking out of the lobby. Yue Ning turned to look at the translator who was accompanying their team.
The translator immediately came over to translate Nakatani's words: "Ms. Yue, your friend brought a business card to our restaurant for dinner. She also wanted to pack a portion of Okonomiyaki. I brought the Okonomiyaki from our restaurant, please try it."
Miss Ji chased after him and ran to Yue Ning, saying helplessly, "Miss Yue, I'm sorry! I was holding my business card at the door of the store, and he found me and I was talking to him in a confusing way. He actually found someone who could speak English to talk to me, and then he had to come with me."
“How’s the store?”
"The shop is very new and very popular. As for the taste... he told me that he had a special menu for Hong Kong customers. I think it tastes better than the ones I had at lunch."
Yue Ning understood the general situation and invited him in to talk.
Qiao Junxian said to her: "Brother and sister should have arrived, I will go upstairs first."
"good!"
Nakajima Masako wanted to come over, but hesitated. She walked to Shen Wenqi's side and said, "Miss Shen, I'll go back first. You guys discuss it..."
"Ms. Nakajima, please come along!" Yue Ning said to her, "I have already decided on the subject for the Okonomiyaki shoot."
Several people entered the coffee shop together. Zhong Gu respectfully took out the lunch box and placed it in front of Yue Ning, bending down: "It's been a while, the taste must be bad. It would be best if you could go to the store."
"It's okay." Yue Ning opened the lunch box, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of Okonomiyaki and put it into his mouth.
Having just eaten the meal of the Teppanyaki Master, the taste of this Okonomiyaki is much worse. However, his Okonomiyaki has less sauce, which is more suitable for Yue Ning's taste.
“You reduced the sauce?”
Zhong Gu nodded, "Yes, this is from Xue Ning Xiao Chu Noodle House. When I went to Gangcheng, the waiter told me that your store has several flavor options. They said that Japanese people choose the rich flavor. In the end, I ordered all three. They said that most people in Gangcheng would choose the mid-range flavor."
Yue Ning continued to savor the food carefully, and after eating it, he said, "Since you are here to seek my advice, I will not pick out the advantages, but just point out the disadvantages."
Zhonggu looked at her expectantly. Yue Ning said, "The taste of the sauce is very friendly to me, a Cantonese. Unless you specially mix it for Cantonese people, it is not sweet enough for Japanese people. In addition, the Worcestershire sauce you used doesn't taste very good. I suggest you change the brand, and the yam paste in the batter..."
Yue Ning made a series of comments, reviewing everything about his Okonomiyaki, from the batter to the ingredients and even the sauce, and Nakatani went from anticipation to disappointment.
“Because you are in the same industry, you also hope to get some advice.”
"Of course, of course." Nakatani said dejectedly, "It's just that I didn't expect there would be so many questions."
"But these are minor problems. I can help you fix them! For example, for Worcestershire sauce, you can use Le Pailin from England, which will solve this problem, or I can help you choose a similar product in the Japanese market. I can also test the batter with you, right?"
Hearing Yue Ning say this, he asked, "Is it okay?"
Yue Ning looked at Masako Nakajima again: "Ms. Nakajima, since you don't have a suitable filming company, I think Mr. Nakatani would be willing to participate in this filming. Can we change this store?"
The Hong Kong translator took the lead and translated Yue Ning's meaning.
Zhonggu's eyes widened like balls: "Really? Really?"
Nakajima Masako couldn't make the decision herself. She said, "I'll go ask for instructions."
Nakatani repeatedly told Masako Nakajima: "It's troublesome."
A lady in hotel uniform came over and said, "Excuse me. Who is Miss Yue Ning?"
"I am."
She handed over a piece of paper and said, "Ms. Yue, this is a message from Mr. Qiao."
Yue Ning took the paper and Qiao Junxian left her a message saying that he was in brother Jun Shen's room.
Masako Nakajima came over, and Yue Ning didn't ask her how her request went. She said, "Ms. Shen, please communicate with Miss Nakajima. I have something else to do!"
Shen Wenqi nodded: "Miss Yue, you go ahead and do your work first!"
Yue Ning walked forward and while waiting for the elevator, he saw Shen Wenqi making gestures and communicating with the other party. Her aura was much stronger than that of Nakajima Masako.
People are forced to do things. As long as she can really take charge of things on her own, wouldn't Miss Shen already be acting like a supervisor?
Yue Ning went upstairs and went straight to Qiao Junshen's room. She knocked on the door and Qiao Junxian came to open it.
Cui Huiyi was also inside, and Yue Ning asked, "Have you had dinner, brother or sister?"
"I ate a lot on the plane. I don't want to eat anymore." Cui Huiyi patted the seat next to her.
Yue Ning sat down next to her, and Qiao Junxian opened a can of drink and handed it to Yue Ning.
Cui Huiyi recalled the time in Beijing and said, "Junxian, don't you know that Ningning likes to open cans by herself?"
Yue Ning put down the drink, turned around and punched Cui Huiyi: "Sister, are you going to keep saying this for the rest of your life?"
Cui Huiyi hugged Yue Ning: "Hey, stop hitting me! Who can stand your punch?"
Yue Ning was hugged by Cui Huiyi, and her face was buried in a place where it shouldn't be buried. My sister usually dresses very neutrally, but I didn't expect that she is very well-known.
Yue Ning was still daydreaming when she heard a cough and Qiao Junshen's voice: "Ningning, Junxian said that you want to invest in Japanese real estate?"
Yue Ning reacted, got up and sat up straight, smoothed his hair, looked at Qiao Junshen and smiled: "Yes!"
Qiao Junshen said with a serious expression: "Last time my uncle came to Hong Kong, he also talked to my grandfather about Japanese real estate and he also thought it was worth investing in. However, the two of them have a deep-seated dislike for Japan, so my uncle finally said forget it."
Seeing Qiao Junshen's serious expression, Yue Ning thought about the bloody roads that his elders had walked. Indeed, ha! Money? Where can I earn all of it?
She said: "If the elders have this concern, then it doesn't matter if we don't make the money."
Qiao Junshen stood up and looked at the brilliant lights outside the window: "What I mean is that the elders don't want to make money, but we can."
"Ah?" She didn't understand what her brother said.
Qiao Junshen leaned against the window with a smile on his face. "I'll call Zhiyuan later. It's more convenient for Zhiyuan to handle the financing and lending. We'll set up a property management company in Japan and buy shops."
"Why buy a shop? Why not buy a house in a core area?" Yue Ning was a little puzzled. From her experience in her previous life, the price increase of residential houses was higher.
Cui Huiyi hooked Yue Ning and rubbed Yue Ning's face with a smile: "My baby! Do you think you are smart? You are sure that Japan is worth investing in, but you asked such a stupid question? Residential houses and villas are copper; office buildings are silver, and shops are gold."
Yue Ning suddenly realized that in the most crazy era of the real estate market in his previous life, the Internet had risen and snatched a share of the real economy. Shop rents fell, and the growth rate of shops could not keep up with that of residential properties.
She leaned against Cui Huiyi and acted coquettishly: "Don't I understand?"
As she rubbed, she found that Jun Shen's face had become longer again. Ha! It turned out that his face was stern just now because... Yue Ning pressed against Cui Huiyi's face: "Sister..."
As expected, Qiao Junshen said impatiently, "That's enough! You're still acting like a child. Stop making trouble. You can go back and rest now."
Yue Ning stood up and pulled Qiao Junxian with him: "Let's go. Don't pay any attention to my jealous brother."
"What's this about jealous people?" Cui Huiyi didn't understand.
Qiao Junshen frowned: "Nothing, the little girl is talking nonsense."
