The trophy is of great significance.
Xiaoxi was stunned; she hadn't expected her brother to give her the trophy.
"Xiaoxi, thank you. Without you, your brother would have no tomorrow or future." Ye Zhongnan made a silent vow. He didn't have the means to give his sister the best gift yet, but he would definitely try his best.
"Second brother, as long as you get better slowly, Xiaoxi will be relieved." The brother and sister held hands tightly.
The competition ended and the scene erupted in cheers. Although the audience did not get to taste the iron pot stew, Guangda Street had already left a strong impression on their minds.
It has to be said that Xiaoxi's traffic generation strategy was very effective.
Guangdajie Street has become a newly emerging popular spot for internet celebrities to take photos and check in.
Tourists not only visit the food street, but also Guangda Street.
Ye Zhongnan's iron pot stew became famous because of this, and tourists who go to Guangda Street will definitely go to the brother and sister's snack shop and order a pot of iron pot stew.
Other snack shops and dessert shops are also booming.
This also boosted the popularity of billiard rooms in e-sports stores, where players who win a game receive a small snack as a reward.
Those snacks were made for the imperial court; they tasted absolutely delicious.
Through this competition, Chen Xu also figured things out.
He felt that his culinary career should not be wasted on a popular potato pancake shop on the food street.
The day after the competition ended, he packed his bags, resigned from the potato pancake shop, and went to Guangda Street to find Ye Zhongnan.
"Mr. Ye, would you like to take me as your apprentice?"
Ye Zhongnan had just finished his work and was sitting down to rest when Chen Xu knelt down in front of him.
Ye Zhongnan was taken aback. "Chen Xu, what was your initial motivation for learning to cook? Why are you so persistent?"
Because Chen Xu looked older than Ye Zhongnan, yet he insisted on learning cooking from him.
Chen Xu said firmly, "I learned cooking because of my brother, who was once an apprentice of the national chef Ye Zhongnan."
What? Ye Zhongnan was shocked, but he didn't show it on his face.
He looked closely at Chen Xu and gradually felt a sense of familiarity. He realized who Chen Xu's brother was.
Ten years ago, he had an apprentice named Chen Ming.
Chen Ming was very talented, respected his teachers, and was only two years younger than him.
"And what about your brother?"
Chen Xu's eyes reddened.
“My brother is no longer alive. Back then, my brother and this national chef suddenly had a disagreement. In a fit of anger, the national chef severed his master-disciple relationship with my brother.”
The older brother couldn't believe his master would make such a decision. Based on his admiration and understanding of his master, he felt that his master was no longer the same as before.
My brother often says: Skills are easy to learn, but art is a person's experience, a pursuit of perseverance, and a continuous accumulation of self-demands.
Therefore, the older brother felt that his later master was no longer the master he had always admired.
My brother passed away three years ago due to depression. While cleaning out his belongings, I found his notebook, which inspired me to start learning to cook.
Ye Zhongnan fell silent, because this was a phrase he often said to Chen Ming, and he never expected that his proud disciple would actually remember it.
He regretted that if he hadn't had that accident back then, his only disciple might not have passed away.
The fake Ye Zhongnan, of course, had to eliminate dissidents around him, because the real Ye Zhongnan's favorite disciple knew his master best, and keeping him around would only expose his true identity.
Ye Zhongnan choked up: "Okay, I'll take you in. You're also a very talented person. Help your brother carry on his passion for cooking."
Chen Xu had no idea that the person in front of him was his brother's mentor from back then.
Back then, he was just a rebellious teenager and wouldn't have paid attention to his brother's affairs, so Ye Zhongnan had never met him back then.
