After the family has finished eating.

Da Niu helped repair the damaged furniture and roof of the house.

Zhong Tianzheng found that he could use the currency of this world to buy some ingredients from the kitchen god system, and the price was the same as the price in the local market, Zhong Tianzheng bought flour, rice, and some commonly used seasonings for cooking through the system, which filled the kitchen at home.

"This is enough for my parents and younger brother to eat for a while. ”

Zhong Tianzheng took care of all this, looked at the piled up ingredients, and smiled happily.

After all this, Zhong Tianzheng and Da Niu said goodbye to their parents and younger brother.

"Zheng'er, you don't have to worry about your mother, you can be busy with your career, you have me and your father at home, don't worry about it. The mother held back her tears.

"You old woman, after all, don't be angry with your eyes, son, work hard, live like a person. Dad said.

"Brother, don't worry, I am at home. The younger brother said.

Zhong Tianzheng nodded movingly, then got into the carriage with Da Niu and said goodbye to his family.

The two of them rode back to the inn in a bumpy carriage.

。。。。。。

The Qian family's mansion.

"Smack. A teacup shattered on the ground.

"Waste, useless things, you can't do that much money in a month. ”

The rich man reprimanded the third son of Qian.

Qian Sanzi knelt down and didn't dare to move.

The rich man blushed, took a few deep breaths, and slowly calmed his heaving chest.

In other words, the innkeeper has nothing to do with the previous wreck, and is a powerful outsider. ”

"Yes, sir, it's very tricky, and the brothers you brought over are all broken. ”

The rich man's eyes rolled.

"I have an idea, doesn't he open an inn? The food is the signature, we send our best chefs, give them a battle post, and if they lose, get out of here, what do you think?"

Qian Sanzi immediately raised his thumb: "Gao, the master is Gao, so that they can lose convincingly, we haven't recently spent a lot of money to invite a new chef, so that they can be obedient." ”

The rich man can't help but be complacent.

"Arrange it now. ”

"Yes. "Qian Sanzi went down.

"Langrigland. The rich man hummed a little song and drank his tea.

。。。。。。

Tianzheng Inn.

Da Niu is greeting guests, because a few days ago Zhong Tianzheng launched a new dish on the shelf, the guests who tasted it said okay after eating, the guests who came to the inn increased one after another, and Da Niu was busy sweating at this time.

Zhong Tianzheng told Da Niu the price, and Da Niu has now collected the account together, and Zhong Tianzheng is only busy stir-frying and cooking in the back kitchen.

At this time, several people walked into the inn.

Da Niu hurriedly came over to greet him.

Unexpectedly, these people pushed the big cow away, "What about the steward, let him come out." ”

Seeing that the comer was not good, Da Niu hurriedly went to the back kitchen to call Zhong Tianzheng.

"Don't panic, you go and greet the other guests first. ”

The big bull nodded and went to get busy.

Zhong Tianzheng untied his kitchen clothes and came to the hall to look at the three people who came in.

I saw that the person in the middle was dressed in white, tall, thin-faced, bald, obviously a cook.

There are two people on the left and right, slimming and calloused hands, bulging muscles, not tall, but the lower plate is very stable, and at first glance it is a guard or thug who cares for the house.

Seeing Zhong Tianzheng coming, a thug stepped forward and looked at Zhong Tianzheng.

"You are the shopkeeper of this Tianzheng Inn? This is the chef Wang of our inn, but the certified seventh-stage chef, I heard that you are a new inn, and I want to learn from your chef. This is a war post. ”

Another thug stuffed a red seal with the words "battle post" written on it with a black brush into Zhong Tianzheng's hand.

"Yo, kicking the gym?" Zhong Tianzheng thought to himself. In the previous life, there were often restaurant chefs who privately found differences and learned cooking skills, but I didn't expect this world to have it.

Hearing the battle post, the guests who ate looked back at the excitement from time to time.

In this world, it is permissible to compete in cooking in private, and it is also allowed to set your own bets, but only for money and goods, and you need to set up a note and ask the government to prove it.

"This is the bet note we wrote, you take a look, if you can, sign it, if you don't dare, hum, don't open an inn here, take off the signboard and take the morning roll to cover and leave, hahaha." ”

Zhong Tianzheng often gambled with others in his previous life and never lost his cooking skills, so why be afraid?

Zhong Tianzheng took the note and looked at it, which probably meant a one-on-one chef competition, Zhong Tianzheng lost, leaving this place, Zhong Tianzheng won and could get eighty gold coins.

Seeing the eighty gold coins, Zhong Tianzheng's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked the system in his heart, whether the gold coins won in this way were considered to be earned by completing the task.

"Allowed. ”

After receiving a positive reply from the system, Zhong Tianzheng had confidence.

"I promise, right now, this Chef Wang is in my back kitchen, and I bring my own ingredients. ”

"What, you little inn, the boss himself went to it?" the thug scoffed.

"Haha, that can't let you be a blind chef, right?" Zhong Tianzheng said with a smile.

The thug was directly choked.

Chef Wang opened his eyes and said very conceitedly: "You are here, hmph, make do, you are going to leave anyway." ”

Chef Wang walked directly to the back kitchen.

Zhong Tianzheng picked up the pen and signed the note directly.

The thug went to ask for a certificate, and the other thug picked up the note and shouted to the guest around.

"Everyone, take a look, let's take a look, Chef Wang of our Qian Inn is going to compete with the kitchen of Tianzheng Inn in cooking, the note has been decided, everyone will be a witness. ”

Hearing this, many guests stopped eating and ran to the courtyard where the kitchen was located.

Da Niu sweated in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Zhong Tianzheng and Chef Wang each entered the kitchen, and soon the ingredients that Chef Wang needed were delivered by a young man.

The thug also called back the paperwork and wrote his name on the notary.

"There is no evidence in the words, and the written evidence is proof, I announce the start of the competition!" the clerk shouted.

The onlookers came to the backyard to watch the two chefs compete, and the two thugs moved a few tables from the hall of the Tianzheng Inn, one table was placed on the side of the courtyard for the clerk to sit down, and the other table was reserved for the dishes, and then the kitchen door was opened, and the onlookers could see the situation of the two people inside.

"Hmph, I don't know where the wild chef came from, and I'll let you lose if you lose. Chef Wang gave him a disdainful look.

The dish he prepared was the head and tail of fried grilled herring, one of the top ten famous dishes of Yu cuisine.

He cut off the head of the herring from the outside of its pectoral fin, and the tail from an inch inside the caudal fin. Chop the head and neck from behind the gills of the fish, and chop the head of the fish into long pieces about 2 inches wide with a vertical knife. The neck meat is chopped into pieces, then the head of the fish is spread on the plate, and the tail is chopped from the tail fin, 5 pieces of each are chopped, and placed on the tail in order. Take another inch of the middle and chop it in the middle of the fish tail. Cut the bamboo shoots into hob pieces, and place the mushrooms, green onions, and ginger on the pot mat together. Put the pot on the fire, add the oil, put the head and tail in, fry on both sides, and the skin is down into the pot mat. Put the pot on the fire, add the big oil and the head soup, add the ingredients, put the laid pot mat in, grill it with a fire, and simmer to collect the juice. When the sauce is thick and the fish is red and bright, put it into the grill plate and pour the juice to finish.

And Zhong Tianzheng saw Chef Wang take out the fish and ingredients, and vaguely guessed what he was going to cook, so he had a plan.

Seeing the busy work of the two chefs, the onlookers watched the excitement from the layman and the doorway from the insider.

"Do you think he's going to win?"

"It's hard to say, but Chef Wang was invited by the Qian Inn for a lot of money, and his strength is definitely not ordinary. ”

"Hey, hey, don't forget, you've been eating at the Tianzheng Inn lately, and it tastes really delicious. I'll say less, watch more. ”

Zhong Tianzheng decided to make Luoyang swallow dishes.

He washes the stick bones, puts them in cold water, pours in a little cooking wine, boils them slowly on the fire, skims the blood foam. Wash and peel the white radish and cut it into thin slices. Slice the thinly sliced white radish vertically into shreds. The shredded white radish is thin and continuous, close to bird's nest in appearance. Soak the shredded white radish in cold water for about ten minutes, changing the water in the middle to remove the spicy flavor of the white radish. When the shredded radish is soaked, cut all the ingredients into shreds. Boil the chicken breasts in advance, tear them into shredded chicken along the texture, and blanch the chopped shiitake mushrooms, shredded carrots and other ingredients in the order of vegetarian and then meat.

The soaked shredded radish is squeezed out of excess water with gauze. Squeeze all the shredded radishes and put them in a pot and set aside. Sprinkle with mung bean starch, sprinkle more mung bean starch, and make sure that all the shredded radish is sticky with mung bean starch. The shredded radish after mixing is one step closer to the form of bird's nest. Put the shredded radish in a steamer and steam over high heat for five minutes. On another heat, bring the pot to a boil, add a little salt, and blanch all the shredded side dishes from vegetarian to meat. After blanching, the shredded radish is basically steamed, and the steamed shredded radish is quickly put into cold water and quickly cut with chopsticks. The shredded radish that has been cut, soaked, steamed, floured, and steamed again is already similar to bird's nest in both appearance and taste. Remove the shredded radish, drain and place in a bowl. Yard all the ingredients.

The peony flower is replaced by bean skin, first cut out of a circle and then divided into four, and finally rolled into a peony flower, with carrots as stamens, and bean skin as petals.

After everything is arranged, put it in a pot and steam it over high heat for five minutes, so that the aroma of shredded chicken, shiitake mushrooms, crab sticks, squid and other flavors can be well integrated into the "swallow vegetables". After steaming, the soup is also cooked, open the pressure cooker, a fragrant smell comes to the nose, the milky white bone broth makes people appetite, put a little salt, put the soup into the steamed bowl, let the bone broth soak in the swallow vegetables, the taste is more delicious.

Cut a little chives, put it in a bowl, and a dish of Luoyang swallow vegetables is complete.

Zhong Tianzheng was ready before Chef Wang, and Chef Wang was one step behind, and both of them used lids, covered the dishes, and then brought them to the courtyard table.

The next thing is to decide whether you win or lose, the local rules are very simple, find ten people to taste at random, whoever says that it is delicious will win, but there is one point, when picking people, the diners should be in three circles, pick three or four people in a circle, and then change to the next circle.

Soon the official clerks were found with people, and ten various diners were ready.

As soon as Chef Wang lifted the lid, the aroma of fish instantly wafted out.

"Fragrant!"

The onlookers let out a burst of exclamation.

The two diners sandwiched their chopsticks, and their eyes narrowed in an instant of enjoyment.

Chef Wang looked at Zhong Tianzheng proudly, and his expression seemed to be saying.

"Are you okay?"

Ten people tasted Chef Wang's dishes, and only eight people applauded them deliciously.

。。。。。。

Qian family.

"Master, there is news that Chef Wang's dishes are applauded by eight people. ”

"Hahaha, isn't that nine out of ten. Listen, go cut some meat, and have a feast at the mansion tonight. The rich man said excitedly.

"Yes, sir. The subordinates are going to do it, "The water is about to flow out."

。。。。。。

As soon as Zhong Tianzheng's dish was uncovered, the floral fragrance of the peony instantly made people fascinated.

Chef Wang's face was not good-looking.

"The chef of this small restaurant can make such a dish? Hmph, so what, it's not necessarily good or not. Chef Wang comforted himself.

There are still ten people tasting peony and swallow vegetables, and there seems to be a fresh feeling in their mouths while eating, which is very refreshing, and they continue to eat.

Chef Wang was very surprised, almost stunned.

The two thugs who were still menacing just now were also stunned.

Is this a food tasting, or is it a filling?

Ten people are still unsatisfied, the plates are almost clean, and they are still unsatisfied.

Ten people were silent.

Chef Wang was overjoyed: "Haha, it seems... I conceded it. ”

Chef Wang thought he had won and was ready to enjoy the win.

Unexpectedly.

"It's delicious!

"It's delicious!"

"The chef of the Tianzheng Inn is the first!"

The cheers of the ten people made Chef Wang freeze instantly, and the two thugs collapsed directly to the ground, thinking that nine out of ten would be stable, maybe the old man would be in a good mood when he went back, and he could give a reward, but now it was all over.

The clerk looked at the situation, stood up and said.

"Ahem, everyone has seen this, I announce that this time the kitchen competition, Tianzheng Inn wins!"

"Good!"

The onlookers applauded.

Chef Wang was completely dumbfounded, he didn't believe it!

He picked up the chopsticks, ate a bite of his own dish, and sandwiched a piece of Luoyang swallow vegetables.

He threw away his chopsticks and walked out of the backyard in a gloomy manner.

The two thugs collapsed directly to the ground.

"Bring it. The clerk dragged the money bag directly into the thug's arms.

I clicked on the number, and it was exactly eighty gold coins.

"Now cash in the bet, and the eighty gold coins will belong to the Tianzheng Inn. ”

The clerk handed the bag into Zhong Tianzheng's hands.

"Congratulations to Boss Zhong for making a fortune. The clerk clenched his fists in congratulations.

"Where, where, this has a little heart, not respect. Zhong Tianzheng grabbed ten gold coins from his money bag and put them in the sleeve of the clerk.

The clerk reacted and smiled: "The boss is polite, goodbye." ”

The clerk left happily, and everyone dispersed, Zhong Tianzheng and Da Niu greeted the guests in the store just now, heated the guests' dishes again, and continued to operate.

"Bang!" the two thugs were knocked out.

"Get out of here!" the rich man snarled angrily.
