Chang Qing even called his boss directly......

"Hey, boss, well, the game is over, hahaha, although we didn't win the championship, but we also beat the crowd to win a runner-up, oops, I didn't lie to you, I'll issue a certificate in a while, and then take it back for you to take a good look, right! Hang the certificate in our hall, yes, yes, this glory is not easy to come by, yes, I did my best to get the runner-up ......"

The game ended comically like this, and Ma Tianyao undeniably got the qualifying place in Qinxi Province, so that Secretary Wu still touched his head and muttered to himself when he went back.

"That's the game...... That's it, and we're going to win?"

……

After sending Ma Tianyao and the others away, Yin Fatzi stood alone outside the hotel, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

His little apprentice asked him beside him, and he sighed deeply.

"Alas...... I'm wondering, have people like us taken identity, reputation, and status too seriously over the years...... Today, we have all learned the basic skills of these 21 knives, and we are all the best among all chefs, but why have we forgotten the most basic things one by one now?"

"That's because you're lazy, you usually only know how to scold, how can you still practice knife work......"

"Get out, hurry up and get out of here!"

The little apprentice saw that Yin Fat was going to go crazy again, so he immediately laughed and hurriedly slipped away.

Back to the signature dish, Secretary Wu chatted with Ma Tianyao and others about the next game, and he only then reacted that the signature dish was qualified......

"Uh...... We have won the team of Qinxi Province, and on the first of next month, it will be the National Cooking Competition, and as long as we can win, we can represent our country in the World Chef Competition......!

"Don't worry, Secretary Wu, I will work hard!"

"Okay, I won't delay your business, and I'll send you a car to take you there." ”

After Secretary Wu finished speaking, he said hello and left, Ling Yun couldn't help but run to the kitchen to try to make braised pork at this moment. In this competition, whether it is braised pork or basic knife work, she has benefited a lot, and she can't help but practice it herself.

The bald uncle sent Secretary Wu away, then returned to the bar and asked Ma Tianyao in a low voice.

"Tianyao, this time it's so difficult to compete at the provincial level, I look at the National Culinary Competition...... It's even more difficult, and there's even a special chef in attendance. ”

Ma Tianyao nodded silently and spoke lightly.

"Yes, all the provincial chefs are first-class chefs, and the national selection competition is all the representative teams of each province, so I estimate that there is a high probability that there will be special chefs. And the questions of the contest can be very tricky and quirky......"

"Well, it's very likely, no one expected that the provincial promotion competition would test the twenty-one knife skills, and this national selection competition may not produce any moths......"

"It's useless to think about it, now I can only come and cover up the water and soil......"

……

Next, the signature dishes will continue to be open every day, while braised pork and wine will be sold in limited quantities every day......

Eighteen days later, on May 1st......

The university town and the business district all entered the three-day holiday, and the signature dish was closed early in the morning, and half of the "Xianyang Daily" was pasted on it, and a line of big characters was written with a carbon pen.

[The boss has something to do and is temporarily closed. 】

At nine o'clock in the morning, Little Monkey and Zhang Hu rushed to eat.

"Brother Tiger, we're cool today, three days off, many companies are on holiday, and no one will come to eat today. ”

"I think so, it's really weird to say, it's the first time I like to work overtime so much, I can eat the signature dishes, and I can work overtime to earn three times the salary, and the boss is happy to see me working overtime, it's like killing three birds with one stone......"

"Yo, Brother Tiger, look, there's no one at the door of the signature dish!"

"Haha, many companies are on holiday today, and those of us who have no object will take the initiative to apply for overtime! ”

……

The two of them talked excitedly as they walked towards the signature dish, but when they saw the place, they immediately cried, wow-wow......

"No, I just got the lottery yesterday, and I finally took the initiative to apply for overtime, I'm ......."

"Me too, I told our boss to work overtime for three days in a row, I'm going crazy. ”

"Why are you so unlucky, why did this boss Ma go?

"If we really have to close the store for three days, won't we just work overtime for nothing? The most important thing is that we have to eat instant noodles for three days?"

"Alas......"

……

The two of them were sighing, and three more people came next to them.

"Yo, it's closed? boss...... Something is going to be suspended?"

"Who knows when the door will open?"

"Ghost knows, Boss Ma is really true, and he doesn't write clearly when he opens the door. I also specially applied for overtime work for my boss, and I just wanted to eat egg fried rice, alas......"

……

After nine o'clock, the customers gathered more and more at the entrance of the signature dish, and then the owner of the small shop next to him revealed to everyone.

"I saw them in the morning and left in a car, saying they were going to participate in some kind of tryout. Don't wait, eighty percent won't be able to come back today. ”

"Tryouts?"

"Yes, I don't know the specifics, but I saw them walking away with suitcases, and it looked like they were going to go far away. ”

……

At the same time, Ma Tianyao and his entourage sat in two cars, one was Secretary Wu's, but it was a pity that he had an important meeting delayed today, saying that he couldn't go, so he asked his driver Xiao Huang to drive them there.

Ma Tianyao originally planned to only take the bald uncle and Ling Yun together, but just in time for May Day, the store happened to be closed, and Shi Xiaoxiao was lying on the ground and had to go to refuel.

Under the combination of various circumstances, she asked the bald uncle to drive the car, and simply took everyone in the store with her, including Mei Yunna and Qi Cuicui.

The venue of the competition is naturally in Shangjing City, the most prosperous city in China!

For this city, in the car, Ma Tianyao and Xiao Fang may be unforgettable for the rest of their lives.

There is only one reason, and that is the Martial Arts Academy!!

Ma Tianyao went to the Martial Arts Academy to settle his salary, while Xiao Fang was arrested to serve.

"Tianyao, did you say that Xiaorou would be in school now?"

Shi Xiaoxiao suddenly asked, interrupting Ma Tianyao's mixed thoughts. She glanced back at Shi Xiaoxiao, shook her head and didn't speak.

"That'...... Shall we go to the school to look for her? I haven't seen her in a long time. ”

"It depends, if you have time, drop by to see her. ”

After the car got on the highway, because it was still early, Ma Tianyao and his party got up too early, so they all closed their eyes and rested.
