Chapter 17 I have a good apprentice.

"Thank you, Master, and thank you, Brother Cao, for your suggestions. Let me tell you my understanding, and see if this is the case..."

Wang Jianye explained his understanding of the shortcomings that needed to be improved.

"Oh yeah, that's it."

Chai Wenshan's eyes immediately lit up when he heard this.

This apprentice is so talented that he immediately understood the key points I just told him.

"Now that you understand, you should try it quickly. I want to see if you can do these things well."

Chai Wenshan urged impatiently.

When he was coaching Wang Jianye before, he had never been so impatient.

At that time, Wang Jianye learned too slowly. If he said there was an area that needed improvement, Wang Jianye would have to think for a long time before he could understand it clearly, and then practice for a long time before he could master it.

Now, Chai Wenshan mentioned several points that needed improvement at once, and Wang Jianye understood them immediately, and his understanding was particularly accurate.

Chai Wenshan likes the current Wang Jianye too much.

After all, every master hopes that his apprentices can understand and master whatever they are taught. How pleasant and easy it would be to teach then.

"Hey, why didn't I realize Wang Jianye was so amazing earlier? Was the way I taught him wrong? Or did I not pay enough attention and never realize it?"

Chai Wenshan suspected that he had not taught well before.

At this time, Wang Jianye interrupted his wandering thoughts: "Master, the tenderloin is used up."

"Oh, you've run out of them, huh? OK, I'll find some for you right away."

Chai Wenshan came to his senses and immediately started looking around.

His apprentice has finally been able to learn the dish and is making rapid progress, but he cannot let the lack of ingredients hold him back.

Even if there is only one piece of pork tenderloin left in the kitchen and the customer has ordered a dish that requires it, he has to ask for it.

For him, it’s okay if the guests don’t eat, but it’s not okay if Wang Jianye has no ingredients when practicing.

After a while, Chai Wenshan asked for a piece of pork tenderloin, which he borrowed from another master at the risk of his dignity. The other master was also giving the meat to his apprentice to practice his skills, but he insisted on borrowing it.

"Thank you, Master. If we use this piece of meat sparingly, we should be able to make two more dishes."

Wang Jianye looked at the meat on the chopping board and thanked his master for getting it for him.

"You can use it first, don't save it for me. If it's not enough, I'll go ask those people for more. It would be a waste to give such good meat to their apprentices for training anyway."

With a good apprentice, Chai Wenshan is very confident.

"Master, since you said so, I, as your disciple, cannot let you down. I must practice hard."

Wang Jianye smiled and started to process the tenderloin.

Chai Wenshan said several good words happily.

Seeing him so happy, Cao Xiaodong smiled and said, "Master Chai, my master did the same thing when he taught me to cook. If there was a shortage of ingredients, he would find a way to get them for me, and I could just practice without worrying about anything else."

"Now I understand how your master felt when he taught you. This disciple is talented and learns quickly, which makes the master happy."

Chai Wenshan said, "Oh, by the way, where is your master?"

Wang Jianye was making such rapid progress with one dish after another that he especially wanted Sun Qu to come and see.

In this way, he can show off to the other party that he also has a good apprentice.

After all, when Sun Qu was teaching Cao Xiaodong how to cook, he often asked him to come over and watch, in order to show off how fast Cao Xiaodong learned things.

Before, Chai Wenshan hated Sun Qu's behavior of asking people to come over and showing off in front of him.

But now that he has a good apprentice, he also likes this feeling. It feels so good.

"I don't know where Master has gone. I guess he went out to smoke." Cao Xiaodong shook his head and said.

"What a pity."

Sun Qu was not there, and Chai Wenshan sighed in disappointment.

Cao Xiaodong heard this and asked curiously, "Master Chai, what do you think is a pity?"

"Oh, it's okay, it's just a pity that he shouldn't have learned to smoke. He smells like cigarettes all over his body, and I'm annoyed by the smell."

Chai Wenshan casually gave a reason.

Cao Xiaodong said helplessly: "My master is in poor health. I have advised him many times, but he still smokes. He said that the doctor in the hospital asked him to smoke less, so he had no choice but to start learning to smoke."

Not long after, Wang Jianye made a new dish of stir-fried shredded pork tenderloin.

[Ding, experience value +4]

Ever since Wang Jianye raised the skill of this dish to the proficient level, the experience points he gained each time he made this dish went from five to only four.

If his cooking skill for this dish is raised to the third-stove level, the experience points he gains will be further reduced.

"Master, Brother Cao, come and try it."

Wang Jianye served the dishes and placed them on the table.

Chai Wenshan was waiting for this. Without waiting for Wang Jianye to finish speaking, he immediately picked up the chopsticks and took a bite while it was still hot.

"Well, it's good. You've made progress this time. Especially the points I told you to improve, you've done better than before."

Chai Wenshan couldn't help but praise.

He has an apprentice who makes rapid progress, and it is a pleasure for him as a master to teach him.

Otherwise, why do all teachers like good students? It’s because they think they learn quickly and are easy to teach.

After tasting it, Cao Xiaodong couldn't help but nod his head and praised with a smile: "Jianye, your dish is well cooked. It's almost good enough to be cooked on the stove. Keep working on it."

"Thank you both. I can make such rapid progress thanks to the guidance of Master and Brother Cao. Otherwise, it would take me a lot of effort to figure it out on my own."

Although Wang Jianye's progress mainly depends on the system's points addition, it is still okay to say some polite words in front of the two of them.

"The master can only teach you the skills, but your skills depend on yourself. Your rapid progress is mainly due to yourself."

Chai Wenshan waved his hand, but his words and actions showed that he appreciated it very much.

At this time, Sha Zhu came over from outside. Seeing that everyone was so happy, he asked curiously, "Brother Wang, what's going on? What's the good news?"

Wang Jianye pointed at the dish on the table and said with a smile, "I just made it. How about you try it?"

"Row."

Sha Zhu didn't hesitate and took the chopsticks to take a bite.

"Well, Brother Wang, this dish is really good. If you practice a little more, you can reach the level of a chef, right?"

Of course, Wang Jianye’s cooking skill for this dish has reached proficiency level 11+, and he only needs five experience points to reach the level of a third-class cook.

And he just gained four more experience points. If he adds them to this dish, he will be only one step away from the third stove level, very close.

Wang Jianye gave the system an order in his mind, adding all four experience points to this dish.

[Ding, Stir-fried Pork Tenderloin (Experience Level 11+) has been upgraded successfully after spending 4 experience points. Congratulations to the host for mastering Stir-fried Pork Tenderloin (Experience Level 15+). ]

"As long as I gain a little more experience points, I can improve this dish to the level of a three-stove master."

As Wang Jianye sees himself getting closer and closer to his goal, he becomes more and more motivated.
