Chapter 275 System Upgrade, Apprentice Promotion

[Ding, the system is upgrading...]

【Ding, system upgrade successful! 】

After seeing this system prompt, Wang Jianye couldn't wait to open his personal panel.

[Experience value: 380]

【…】

[You have become a national banquet chef. Your next mission is to promote Chinese cuisine, develop it, and recruit apprentices to pass it on.]

[Note: The next system upgrade condition: Raise the level of five apprentices to the head level.]

[Chen Xiaoyang, knife skills: 22, heat: 20, seasoning: 25, evaluation: three stoves, daily experience points that can be provided to the host: 30 points. ]

[Wang Yijun, knife skills: 45, heat: 33, seasoning: 30, evaluation: second stove, daily experience points that can be provided to the host: 40 points. ]

90-100是国宴，70-90是大厨，50-70是头灶，30-50是二灶，20-30是三灶，10-20是学徒。

【…】

Only one function was added, which is a page about the current levels of the apprentices.

He has ten apprentices in total, and he can see their overall level.

"How's my level? Can you see it?"

As Wang Jianye's mind moved, he indeed saw his own level information.

[Wang Jianye, knife skills: 120, heat: 120, seasoning: 120, evaluation: legendary chef]

"good."

Wang Jianye feels that the new functions brought by the system are very useful. Not only can he clearly see his own level, but also the level of his apprentices.

In this way, he can give targeted guidance and teaching to his apprentices to help them improve their cooking skills quickly.

"The condition for the next system upgrade is that I teach five apprentices to the level of a master cook."

"Among the ten apprentices I have accepted so far, Wang Yijun and Cheng Jie are the most capable."

"Now that you have the ability to be a second-class chef, you only need to take the assessment to be promoted from an apprentice to a full-time second-class chef."

Wang Jianye thought about it and decided that when he went to work tomorrow, he would tell Zhou Qingde to conduct promotion assessments for his two apprentices in advance.

the next day.

Zhou Qingde was chatting with Master Zhao, who was also the head chef, and they were talking about Wang Jianye.

"Many of our apprentices in the kitchen, and even the chefs in the third and second kitchens, go to ask Master Wang for advice. He teaches well."

"Not only am I a good teacher, but I also don't keep secrets. I don't follow the saying 'teaching the apprentice will make the master starve to death'. If you ask me, I will tell you."

"Master Wang teaches other disciples so attentively, so he must be even more attentive when teaching his own disciples."

"It is a blessing for all his disciples to be able to worship Master Wang as their master."

"Hey! Guess, three years later, when Master Wang's apprentices take the grading test, how many of them will be able to get promoted directly to the second stove?"

"At least there are Wang Yijun and Cheng Jie. These two have some basic skills. After following Master Wang, their skills have improved rapidly."

"..."

……

Wang Jianye came to work at Fengze Garden and called his two apprentices, Wang Yijun and Cheng Jie, over:
"Your current level should be good enough for the second stove, right?"

"enough."

"Well."

Wang Jianye found Zhou Qingde and told him that they had reached the basic level of a second-stove master and wanted them to take part in the grading assessment in advance.

"Ah? Isn't this too fast?"

"We think it will take at least three years for your two disciples to reach this level."

"It's only been a few months since they became your disciples, and you've already reached this level?"

Zhou Qingde and Master Zhao looked at him in surprise.

After getting Wang Jianye's confirmation, Zhou Qingde took a breath and said, "Then let them try!"

Master Zhao was just as shocked as Zhou Qingde. "They have only been learning from you, Master Wang, for less than five months? And they have already reached the level of a second-class chef?"

Wang Jianye smiled and said nothing.

The news that a temporary grading test would be held tomorrow spread like wildfire.

So many apprentices and masters in the kitchen heard the news.

"Isn't the grading assessment for Fengze Garden only conducted once a year?"

"The last grading test was held half a year ago. Logically, it should be held in a few months."

"Could it be that the grading assessments at Fengze Garden will be changed to once every six months in the future?"

"Then I want to participate!"

"..." This temporary grading test tomorrow is specifically for Wang Jianye's two disciples.

But everyone is still allowed to attend.

Because the grading assessment requires registration, the number of participants should be counted and the necessary ingredients should be prepared in advance.

Therefore, the assessment can only officially begin on the next day.

The next morning, the venue and ingredients were prepared for the first assessment for apprentices to become regular employees.

In addition to Wang Yijun and Cheng Jie, there were three other apprentices participating.

Among these three, two of them have consulted Wang Jianye.

After Wang Jianye's guidance, I had an epiphany and my level improved. I am now here to take the assessment today.

"nervous?"

Wang Jianye asked his two disciples, Wang Yijun and Cheng Jie.

"not nervous!"

"Me too!"

Wang Yijun and Cheng Jie were both very excited.

After studying with their master for less than half a year, they reached the second-class level.

His progress was much faster than that of other apprentices.

Wang Jianye applied for this assessment specifically for the two of them.

But it’s not possible that everyone else passed the test while they failed.

That would be such a disgrace to our Master!

The two took a few deep breaths and looked at each other.

This time, I have to show my face to my master!

Nine o'clock in the morning.

The venue and ingredients are ready.

Just like the last time Wang Jianye took the assessment, Zhou Qingde asked those who were taking the regularization assessment to step out.

Wang Yijun, Cheng Jie, and the other two people who took the regularization assessment also stood up.

Only then did people notice.

Wang Jianye’s two disciples, who he had accepted for less than half a year, also participated!
"Didn't they just become Master Wang's apprentices last December? And they've reached the level of being able to become full-time employees so quickly?!"

"It's been less than half a year, and Master Wang's two apprentices are about to take the same grading test that other apprentices who have studied for three years have to take. They are extremely talented!"

"Do they really have the ability, or do they just want to give it a try?"

"..."

The assessment process is the same as before, and you still have to queue up and draw lots first.

Select three dishes from the ten dishes.

If the apprentice can cook all three dishes to a score of six, which is good enough for a chef, he will pass the assessment.

In evaluating a dish, the third stove gets six points, the second stove gets eight points, and the first stove gets ten points.

When Wang Jianye took part in the apprentice grading test, he scored 10 points on all three dishes and passed perfectly.

His two apprentices who had studied with him for five months, in this assessment, Wang Yijun scored eight points, eight points, and eight points for his three dishes, and Cheng Jie scored nine points, eight points, and eight points.

Successfully passed the assessment and was officially promoted to Sanzao Master!

"Wow, I actually passed!"

"It's amazing! You've reached this level in just a few months!"

"I studied for three years before I barely passed, and these two... well, let's not talk about it anymore. People are really incomparable."

"Why do all the good disciples want to become Master Wang's disciples? I don't understand."

"With their talents, I bet they will be promoted to the second stove within three years!"

"I'll just bet on two years!"

"..."

After Wang Yijun and Cheng Jie were announced to be promoted to the third stove chef, they came to Wang Jianye excitedly:

"Master, we didn't embarrass you, did we?"

"No."

Wang Jianye smiled with satisfaction. This was the disciple he had taught:
"There will be an assessment for promotion to Second Kitchen Master this afternoon, so work harder!"

"Yes! Master!"
