Chapter 34
34 No M1Y, It’S N1 Of My Business?
Senzaemon already knows about Erina being “blocked” by Chen Fei.
He even knew the ins and outs of this matter.
It must have been Erina’s fault, no doubt about that.
But Senzaemon made a special trip today, not just to apologize for Erina.
Just now, he has already said the words of apology,
It doesn’t matter if Chen Fei accepts it or not,
After all, the bell has to be tied, and the one who made the mistake is Erina,
How to get Chen Fei’s forgiveness, Erina needs to figure out a way by herself.
What did Senzaemon mean when he apologized just now?
I just want to express one thing to Chen Fei.
That is, he also felt that Erina did something wrong.
In this matter, he, Senzaemon, will not protect Erina without any hesitation.
Besides wanting to show this attitude, Senzaemon’s second purpose here is to chat with Chen Fei.
He is a little worried that once such “powerful” kitchen utensils are popularized, it will cause all unpredictable effects in the future.
After Senzaemon asked his doubts, Chen Fei looked up at him:
“Master, why do you ask such a strange question!?”
“I’m just selling a knife,”
“Do you think that this kind of thing can lead to unpredictable consequences?”
“………”
Senzaemon organized the language in his mind, and then slowly said:
“As long as the chef uses the Yongling knife made by you, he can make his cooking more delicious.”
“In the long run, will people become more dependent on your kitchen utensils?”
“Therefore, will the enthusiasm for the pursuit of delicious food subside?”
“……”
Hearing what Senzaemon said, Chen Fei finally understood what the old man was trying to express.
It turned out that he was worried that everyone would rely too much on their Yongling knife, thus losing their pursuit of cooking skills.
Thinking of this, Chen Fei was speechless:
“Master, I think you are just worrying about it right now!”
“Worrying? What do you mean by that?”
Seeing Senzaemon’s puzzled eyes, Chen Fei didn’t continue to work, and just started chatting with him:
“Master, do you understand this world?”
“Or, do you understand human nature?”
Looking at Senzaemon, Chen Fei said his thoughts verbatim:
“I personally think that the vast majority of people in this world are greedy.”
“Including the chef, there is also a trace of greed.”
“Whether you want to make money, or you want to satisfy customers.”
“In order to achieve their goals, they have to keep improving their cooking skills.”
“My Yongling knife, you don’t seem to know much about it, old man.”
“Its effect is only to enhance the taste of the ingredients, not to enhance the chef’s cooking skills.”
“Right now, poor cooks may use my knife to make better-tasting dishes.”
“But, you have to know that a chef with superb cooking skills will explode with even more amazing effects after using my knife.”
“To put it bluntly, my kitchen knife is always just a tool!”
“Its effect is the icing on the cake.”
“As time goes on, under the nourishment of deliciousness, the tastes of guests will become more and more picky.”
“Whether a genius or a mediocrity has nothing to do with my knife!”
“It doesn’t change that essence either.”
“In the final analysis, it still depends on the strength of the chef?”
“So, I really don’t understand, what are you worrying about…”
It is said that once people get older, they like to think wildly.
It seems that there is some truth to what he said.
Senzaemon, an old man with a lot of age, looks at the problem, and he can’t understand it as a young man.
As a very simple example,
Like the guys from Ah Saka, they did buy a few eternal swords here.
But what about that?
It seemed that the dishes he made tasted better, but in fact, it was just that the taste of the ingredients improved.
If he burns a few blindly, the dish will still be unpalatable and difficult to eat.
It’s just that he did his best to cook, so the effect of enhancing the taste of the ingredients was partially reflected on the plate.
If it is replaced by some powerful chefs, such as Dojima Gin, Caibo Seiichiro,
If they cook with their Yongling knife, they can explode the effect of 1+1 greater than 2.
To put it bluntly, everything in the world drinks and pecks,
The Yongling knife is just the icing on the cake, it is not changing the talent and level of the chef.
Of course, someone may ask,
Wouldn’t it be unfair for a chef with good cooking skills to have a cooking showdown with a chef who is not good at cooking but holds a Yongling knife?
Asking such a question would be even more superficial.
How can there be so much fairness in this world?
Just like people can afford expensive high-end ingredients, being rich is also part of their strength, okay? ?
Chen Fei sells knives. To put it bluntly, he is not considering issues of fairness and injustice.
If you can’t afford it, it means you are poor!
If you make good money, you’re done. If you buy the Yongling knife, don’t you stand on the same starting line as others?
Chen Fei’s goal is just to sell knives.
As for what will happen to those who can’t afford the eternal spirit knife, he won’t think about it, and he’s too lazy to think about it.
Instead of worrying about this, it is better to think about it, why some people can afford a Mercedes-Benz, and some people can’t.
…………
After hearing these words from Chen Fei, the expression on Senzaemon’s face froze.
He thought about it for a long time,
Suddenly, he understood Chen Fei’s words.
This young man is right!
It seemed that he was indeed in a daze.
The effect of the Yongling knife is only to make the ingredients more delicious,
It doesn’t affect the chef’s cooking skills at all.
The chef’s cooking skills are reflected in the process of processing the ingredients into an exquisite dish.
The cooking level can give more charm to the ingredients.
As he said, the Yongling Knife will have a greater effect in the hands of high-quality chefs.
That’s right, if a chef wants to pursue a higher level of delicacy, he still has to practice hard cooking skills.
Even if you have the “Yongling Knife”, it only makes the dishes made by this chef temporarily better.
However, motivated chefs will never be satisfied with the status quo.
On the contrary, Yong Ling Dao may also allow them to erect greater ambitions.
Thinking of this, Senzaemon only felt that his thoughts suddenly became clear.
Indeed, the problem I was worried about was really just a fool’s errand! *
