In this world, there has never been love for no reason, and there is no hate for no reason. As the Buddhists say, where there is a cause, there must be an effect, and where there is an effect, there must be a cause.

Everything has a cause and effect.

Fourth Brother Lin and Sha Xiaoman, why did they help An Liang? Don't say that Fourth Brother Lin and Sha Xiaoman like An Liang's private hot pot, so they take the initiative to help An Liang.

If it was just from the perspective of liking private hot pot, I am afraid that Fourth Brother Lin and Sha Xiaoman would talk to An Liang about the conditions for helping him, instead of taking the initiative to help him first.

Since Fourth Brother Lin and Sha Xiaoman moved out of the leadership of the Wucheng City Health Bureau to help An Liang solve the problem, they must have something to ask for.

It's just that An Liang didn't ask in person. An Liang knew that Sha Xiaoman would definitely take the initiative.

An Liang took the cabbage Xuewang soup, came to the side of condensing into ice, put the tray on the hot pot table, and then moved the cabbage Xuewang soup to the hot pot table, and said: "This is a special dish given today, using specially cultivated organic cabbage, the whole process is pollution-free, chemical-free growth, and has the purest and most essential excellent taste." ”

Ning Ning Ning Bing glanced at the little cabbage Xuewang soup, but didn't notice any difference. But An Liang's private hot pot, if you just look at it with your eyes, you can't find the delicacy of the private hot pot.

So, Ning Ning Bing picked up the small bowl that had been prepared on the table, scooped a bowl and prepared to try it.

An Liang reminded on the side: "Be careful, it's hot!" ”

Ning Ning glanced at An Liang with ice whiteness, "Am I that stupid?" After finishing speaking, Ning Ning Bing picked up a small soup spoon, scooped up a small spoon, and blew slightly.

The shape of the lips condensed into ice is very good-looking, and the lip color is pink like white and red, without any lip gloss, which is very good-looking.

An Liang shifted his gaze, pretending not to notice the condensation into ice, and then turned and walked into the kitchen to make lunch for himself.

Today, An Liang has not eaten. Fortunately, there are still a lot of cabbage Xuewang soup, and there are leftovers from last night, An Liang plans to use the cabbage Xuewang soup to soak the leftovers and eat a meal.

It was close to two o'clock in the afternoon, Ning Ning Bing and Su Shiyu had already left, the two of them didn't eat much, and they didn't eat much because they had little cabbage blood soup to cushion their stomachs.

Sha Xiaoman's table was coming to an end, and Sha Xiaoman's voice came, "An Liang, come over for a while, I have something to discuss with you." ”

An Liang secretly laughed in his heart, he knew that the purpose of Sha Xiaoman and Fourth Brother Lin was about to be revealed. When An Liang walked next to Sha Xiaoman, Sha Xiaoman smiled and didn't speak.

Zeng Weiquan immediately understood what Sha Xiaoman meant, and he hurriedly said, "Xiao Lou, let's go out and smoke a cigarette!" Zeng Weiquan was very discerning, he knew Sha Xiaoman and Sha Qiufang, I was afraid that there was something to discuss with An Liang, and he didn't want him to know. Otherwise, why did Sha Xiaoman shout to An Liang to come over, but he didn't speak?

Although the driver Xiao Lou is young, he is also very good at reading words and feelings, and working within the official system, observing words and colors is a very important skill.

Only by learning to read words and emotions can we be like a fish in water in the official system. Otherwise, it will be difficult to move an inch. Sometimes, knowing something you shouldn't know is definitely not a good thing.

When Zeng Weiquan and Xiao Lou walked out of the small courtyard, An Liang took the initiative to say: "Sister Xiaoman, thank you again for today's matter." ”

Sha Xiaoman waved his hand and said, "It's okay! Anliang, the way you operate is to avoid certain risks. Even without my help, Section Chief Zeng would not have had a good solution. However, as an older sister, I will say some things directly, although your method is very good, it is not the right way after all. ”

An Liang sneered: "Sister Xiaoman, I also know, but it is indeed too troublesome to go through some procedures. So, hey, hey, hey. ”

Sha Xiaoman didn't dwell on this one question, but continued: "An Liang, I have one thing, I want you to help!" ”

'Here we are! An conscience secretly asked, but on the surface, he asked quietly, "What is it?" ”

"The general situation is like this, the New Year is approaching, and we, Wucheng and Jincheng, will hold a friendship city hot pot cooking competition. Tong guò is a cooking competition that shows the quality of our hot pot in Wucheng and Jincheng. After all, on a global scale, our hot pot in Fog City is a little more famous! Sha Xiaoman explained the situation.

An Liang nodded a little understandingly, "So, Sister Xiaoman, do you want me to participate in the hot pot cooking competition?" ”

"Yes! This hot pot cooking competition is related to the honor of our Wucheng hot pot! At the same time, this year's hot pot cooking competition was jointly organized by the Municipal Health Bureau, the Municipal Bureau of Industry and Commerce, the Municipal Taxation Bureau, and the Municipal Catering Association in Wucheng. If you are in the hot pot cooking competition, you have won an excellent ranking. I believe that your private hot pot will definitely become famous in the foggy city. As for health, industry and commerce, and taxation, they are definitely no longer a problem. Sha Xiaoman said with a smile.

An Liang weighed the pros and cons of this matter, although An Liang didn't like to be famous, and he didn't like the feeling of being noticed, but as Sha Xiaoman said, once An Liang won an excellent ranking in the hot pot competition, his private hot pot would become the pride of the hot pot industry in Wucheng City, and it would naturally be impossible for the relevant departments to continue to embarrass An Liang.

Overall, the benefits of participating in this hot pot competition outweigh the disadvantages. So, An Liang decided to participate!

"No problem! Sister Xiaoman, it is my honor to be able to fight for the glory of Fog City! An Liang said with a smile, as a college student with ideals, how could An Liang not say polite words?

Sha Xiaoman looked at An Liang with satisfaction, and then said: "The time of this year's hot pot competition is from January 10th to January 12th, which is the preliminary round of the audition, the semi-finals, and the final round, which will be held in three days in turn. Among them, the audition will be held in the North Central Business District, and there will be 20 contestants on the spot, including 10 players from Wucheng and Jincheng. Twenty contestants will set up the bottom of the hot pot in the open air in the North Central Business District, and the official of the hot pot competition will prepare the dishes, and then invite 100 on-site spectators to taste, and finally vote to select the ten players who have advanced to enter the semi-finals. ”

"Hmm!" An Liang responded, saying that he knew the rules of the preliminary round, and then he asked, "Sister Xiaoman, in the preliminary round, do the contestants need to configure hot pot base on the spot, or?" ”

If the hot pot base is configured on the spot, An Liang's heart is still a little empty, he knows that he is at the level of a few catties and taels, without the support of space spring water, the hot pot base he configures is definitely the level of a beginner.

Sha Xiaoman looked at Sha Qiufang hesitantly, she didn't know the specific details.

Sha Qiufang shook her head, "Xiao An, you don't have to worry about the leakage of the secret recipe. Even for the auditions, we also provided a separate kitchen for the contestants. After all, we also know the recipe for some hot pot bases, which is top-secret information. We allow contestants to prepare hot pot base ingredients privately and then use them directly during the auditions. However, in order to prevent cheating, our Municipal Health Bureau will take samples and inspect each hot pot base to analyze whether there are zài contraband in the hot pot base. ”

Although Sha Qiufang did not explain what the consequences of cheating contraband were found. But cheating in city-level competitions has damaged the image of the city, especially the face of the leader, so you should know what the consequences are, right?

An Liang breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded calmly on the surface: "Well, I know!" What is the situation in the semi-finals? ”

Sha Xiaoman continued to explain, "The ten people who advance from the audition will have a promotion match in the Loquat Mountain Forest Hot Pot. In this round, we invited three foodies, as well as 100 volunteers, to sample the food for free and rate each contestant. Three gourmets with one direct qualifier. If three gourmets are willing to nominate the same contestant, that contestant will advance directly to the finals. Otherwise, all contestants will wait for the grading results of the free tasting volunteers. ”

"What is the specific scoring system?" An Liang asked a lot.

Different scoring systems may bring different results.

Sha Xiaoman glanced at An Liang appreciatively, the scoring system Sha Xiaoman knew, she smiled and said: "One hundred free tasting volunteers will score the ten contestants one by one." In a total of 100 scoring statistics, the 20 highest scores and 20 lowest scores are removed, and the remaining 60 scores are added up to the total score of the contestants. In the second round of semi-finals, only four players will advance. ”

An Liang breathed a sigh of relief, although the number of 100 free tasting volunteers was a little more, no one dared to guarantee that among the 100 free tasting volunteers, there was no childcare that was in cahoots with the contestants.

In case there is really a childcare that cheats, deliberately give high marks to the players, but it is useless!

Because the final result will remove the 20 highest scores and the 20 lowest scores, it is relatively fair to choose the 60 scores in the middle range.

"In the final round, there were only four people in the final round. So, where will the finals take place? An Haoqi asked.

The semi-finals were held in Loquat Mountain Forest Hot Pot, so the location of the finals should be more shocking, right?

After all, Loquat Mountain Forest Hot Pot is one of the very famous specialty hot pots in Fog City. Its hot pot table is set up directly in the woods, which has a unique flavor.

An Liang had only heard of Loquat Mountain Forest Hot Pot, but he had not been there himself, and naturally he didn't know the taste of Forest Hot Pot. However, An Liang knew that the price of Loquat Mountain Forest Hot Pot was very, very expensive. Although the price of Loquat Mountain Forest Hot Pot is not as ruthless as Anliang, it is a large-scale operation, and the number of hot pot tables exceeds 100!

It's a pity that Anliang's private hot pot is limited by a small space. Unless, the small space is upgraded, which increases the production of space springs...
