The cooking competition has officially begun. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

On the first day, there were 60 chefs who came to compete.

Uncle Meng followed Zhu Nian's suggestion and conducted the first "audition".

He couldn't think of where Zhu Nian had come up with so many strange words.

After a full day of inspection, Uncle Meng selected twenty outstanding cooks according to Zhu Nian's requirements.

In the afternoon, inside the Tianxiang Pavilion.

Ten tall guards stood straight on both sides of the door of Tianxiang Pavilion, vigilantly protecting the arrangements of the audience.

The twenty cooks sat upright in their seats, none of them had ever been to a restaurant as large as Tianxiang Pavilion, and they were all more or less nervous.

They exchanged heads and talked a lot.

"It's quiet!" Uncle Meng walked down from the second floor and coughed twice to show quietness.

Because there were too many people on the field, not only 20 cooks, but also many people who came to join in the fun, the scene was difficult to control for a while.

"Smack!" Uncle Meng slapped his palm unhappily and warned: "Whoever is not quiet is directly removed from the list!" We don't need such unruly cooks! ”

As soon as the words fell, the hall quickly fell silent, and everyone looked at Uncle Meng nervously, waiting for his next words.

"I'm just a shopkeeper of Tianxiang Pavilion, and I can't make any decisions on behalf of the owner, so the next games will be personally monitored by her, I hope you can all show your highest level!" Uncle Meng said.

"Next, the owner of our Tianxiang Pavilion, Miss Zhu Mansion - Zhu Xinnian will tell you about the rules of the competition."

"Good!" The people who watched the excitement were excitedly coaxing, stretching their necks to look forward to the appearance of the legendary Zhu Xinnian who was alluring to the country and the city.

With the shouts of everyone, a slender figure of goose yellow appeared in the hall.

Zhu Xinnian leaned up and walked solemnly towards the hall from the backyard door.

The eyebrows and eyes that were not powdered seemed to have the magic of turning people upside down, and the originally lively and noisy hall became silent.

The people who saw the true face of Miss Zhufu for the first time were all stunned and stupid.

"Hello everyone, I am the owner of Tianxiang Pavilion, Zhu Xinnian." Zhu Nian bowed slightly, and introduced himself politely and majestically: "If some of you enter our Tianxiang Pavilion in the future, I hope that you can do your duty and complete your work perfectly." ”

"Good!" Everyone came back to their senses and coaxed again.

"But I'll put the ugly words in front first, we Tianxiang Pavilion don't raise idlers, if any of you can't endure hardship, there is still a chance to leave."

Zhu Nian said in a serious tone, giving all the participating chefs a dismount, and couldn't let them think that they were easy to bully and coax.

"We can all of them!" A little cook with a lively personality was the first to speak.

"That's right! We're not leaving! Then everyone reassured.

"Good!" Zhu Nian shouted: "Then now, the game begins!" ”

"Oh!" "Wow!" "Wow!" Everyone applauded, and the atmosphere became lively again.

"Now, let me introduce you to the rules of the game." Zhu Nian said loudly.

"First of all, our competition will be divided into several games, in view of the fact that many of our players are from other places, I have prepared some empty rooms for you in Tianxiang Pavilion to stay, one for two people, and if you want to stay for a while, go to the shopkeeper Meng to register for a name, free of charge."

"Because every chef can have a problem at some point, I can't tell you exactly how many games there will be."

"In each game, I will give you a problem, which you will create on the stove in front of you, and if I can accept or be satisfied, I can advance to the next game; If you can't get me to accept it, I'm sorry, you're going to leave our game. ”

"Okay, okay, what's the problem?"

"No more!" The cooks replied in unison.

"Okay, now let's have the first match." Zhu Nian nodded, and then said, "In the first competition, I won't embarrass you too much. ”

"For the first competition, I'd like to see one of your basic cooking skills—"

Zhu Nian squinted his eyes and swept back and forth over the faces of the twenty cooks.

"Carving!" Zhu Nian said, "Plating is a process in the process of making food, and it is what I like more. ”

"Excuse me, what do we need to carve?" A cook raised his hand and asked Zhu Nian in a loud voice.

The other cooks also nodded and looked at Zhu Nian.

"There is no requirement, you can carve whatever you want, what I want to see is not only your basic skills, but also creativity." Zhu Nian replied

"There is no requirement, so what are we going to carve?"

"yes, what's carving?"

"I can't think of anything to carve for a while!"

Obviously, these complaining chefs are not very innovative, and they are usually restrained by various cooking rules, and they have no idea for a while.

Zhu Nian looked at them and shook his head gently.

But she also noticed that about ten or so cooks did not complain about anything, and now they have begun to carve silently and finish their work.

Zhu Nian laughed softly, he was still quite satisfied with these people.

For the chefs of Tianxiang Pavilion, she does not pursue quantity, only quality, and would rather not have one, than accept a bunch of chefs who have no creativity of their own.

Zhu Nian sat on the chair prepared for her by the little maid, staring intently at the carvings of the various cooks.

There was also a table in front of her, on which was a stick.

The moment this incense burns out, it is the time for the game to end.

After a stick of incense, a small guy standing next to Zhu Nian lifted a gong, struck it three times with a small metal stick, and then shouted: "It's time!" ”

After speaking, the other three servants came out, each holding a chassis marked with a number plate, and walked towards the twenty cooks.

Most of the cooks put down their carved knives and carefully placed their creations behind their number plates.

But there are so many cooks who still hold the knife and don't let go, obviously unfinished work.

The little girl looked back at Zhu Nian in embarrassment and asked for her opinion.

Zhu Nian looked at the hands of the cooks, and then laughed silently.

These chefs are the same people who complained about the lack of a theme, not only are they uncreative, they are slow, and they don't carve flowers very well.

Zhu Nian looked at the little guy, shook his head, and signaled that he couldn't delay any longer.

Zhu Nian feels that the most important point of the competition is fairness, and she repeatedly emphasized the fairness of the competition she held during the publicity period, so no matter whether these chefs have completed their works or not, they must be handed in on time.

Besides, as far as a few of their works are concerned, there is no hope even if they are handed in.

Under the coercive force of the little guy, several cooks had no choice but to put down the carved knife, put their works in the chassis, and sighed and shook their heads.

The three servants put the chassis on the table in front of Zhu Nian, and then stood back respectfully.

"Smack!" Zhu Nian slapped his palms twice.

There was a noise on the stairs, and everyone looked towards the second floor, only to see three older men coming down from the upper floor and walking in front of Zhu Nian.

They were the three previous cooks of Tianxiang Pavilion, and Zhu Nian asked them to be the judges of this competition to help them give advice.
