Chapter 47 Contest Rules
"Okay, sit down with the four judges." Liu Wanfu's shopkeeper raised his palm and motioned for the four judges to sit down.
Immediately, it was announced to everyone in the audience that "a total of 12 prefectures participated in this food competition, and each prefecture sent two chefs. In other words, there are 24 chefs present today to participate in the competition. I think that some people already knew the rules of our game before the game, and here, Rong Liu will repeat them again. The 24 chefs will be divided into 4 groups of 6 people. Each group needs to determine the top 2 places to participate in the new round of competition. Four teams of eight chefs will participate in the new round of competition. These 8 chefs used the method of drawing lots, two by two, and the winning 4 chefs will go through the final round of competition, and the judges will vote to determine the top three. Do you have any questions? Liu Wanfu bowed forward slightly and asked the audience.
"What if there is a tie in the final round?" Someone yelled in the back row.
"We'll have one more game if we tie." Liu Wanfu raised his head and replied loudly to the one in the back row with a smile.
"What are the prizes for the top three?" Someone on the second floor asked aloud.
"Haha, this one is on point, and the next thing I want to talk about is the reward details of this competition." Shopkeeper Liu Wanfu raised his head with a smile and replied aloud in the direction of the second floor.
Then, he turned around and announced to the audience with a smile on his face, "As we all know, every year our Tianqi Food Competition is a national event. Participating chefs, regardless of whether they win or lose, will have a participation prize. This year is no exception, the chef will be rewarded with 10 taels of silver for each dish he makes, and if he wins in a round, there will be a reward of 10 taels of silver. For example, if I play the first round with you. Liu Wanfu walked to the side of the stage as he spoke, invited with his palm, and pointed to a man in Tsing Yi in the audience, "When we compete, we must all cook a dish, right?" Then each of us will be rewarded with 10 taels of silver. If, in the first round, you win and I lose, then you have 20 taels and I still only have 10 taels and I am eliminated. ”
Everyone laughed, and Liu Wanfu's shopkeeper also smiled and interacted with everyone, "How is it?" That explains it clearly, right? ”
"Then after this competition, the champion should be able to get 50 taels of silver?" The audience in the audience had super mental arithmetic skills, and immediately shouted out. No, Liu Wanfu, the shopkeeper on the stage, shook his head, "What you said is just the basic reward of the champion." Chefs who have won the top three will also be rewarded for their ranking. The first place is 300 taels of silver, the second place is 200 taels of silver, and the third place is 100 taels of silver. ”
"Wow! The champion can get 350 taels of silver, the runner-up can get 250 taels, and the third runner-up can get 150 taels. The viewer, who was super mentally arithmetic, immediately shouted out the results of his update.
Shopkeeper Liu Wanfu nodded and said, "Moreover, the difference between this year and previous years is that the chef who won the top three will be seconded to the palace to participate in the meal preparation of a feast." In other words, they had the opportunity to work with the royal chefs in the palace to create dishes for the royal courtiers to enjoy. I think this is a great honor for every chef. ”
Everyone in the audience talked about it, and all the chefs were also excited, and they were all ready to try.
"Is this feast a coronation ceremony for the Six Princes?" I don't know who shouted this sentence, and everyone was stunned. Liu Wanfu's shopkeeper was also stunned for a moment, but after all, he was a person with some experience, so he wouldn't mess up in this kind of scene. I saw that he instantly regained his normal color, and the smile on his face remained unchanged, "This is only known to the chefs who won the competition." ”
Everyone laughed, and the originally slightly embarrassing scene suddenly became active again. Shopkeeper Liu Wanfu took this opportunity to turn around and pick up a cup of tea on the judges' table and take a deep sip.
Putting down the teacup, Liu Wanfu's shopkeeper continued to step forward, looked at the people who were talking under the stand, raised his hand and pressed it, signaling everyone to be quiet.
Everyone was quiet, and Liu Wanfu solemnly announced, "I announce that this food competition has officially begun!" There was a round of applause. Many of the chefs were starting to get a little nervous at this time, while many of them seemed very excited. Unlike others, Fan Erye still looked calm as always, neither nervous nor excited, as if this game had nothing to do with him. Lin Miao was obviously nervous, she looked up at Fan Erye, and called him softly, "Grandpa Fan, Grandpa Fan." ”
Fan Erye glanced back at her and asked her suspiciously, "What's wrong?" What are you calling me for? ”
"Aren't you nervous?" In Lin Miao's big watery eyes, three words were clearly written: I am nervous.
Second Master Fan walked towards Lin Miao, and when he approached, he bowed down slightly, and got closer to Lin Miao, "You are too heavy about gain and loss." Take it easy, don't compare yourself with others, and just do what you are most satisfied with every time you cook. ”
Seeing that Lin Miao was still in a dizzy state, as if she didn't know what she had just said, Fan Erye gently pressed her shoulders and added, "It's okay, Master is here, look at me when you're nervous." ”
This sentence instantly made Lin Miao's confidence greatly increased, and the state that was nervous and dizzy just now seemed to be clear in an instant. She thought back to what Fan Er Ye said just now, and nodded vigorously. Yes, don't win the game, just want to be perfect in every dish, and it is not others who want to surpass, but yourself.
Seeing that her expression was fixed, Fan Erye nodded with satisfaction and returned to the position where he was standing just now.
At this time, Liu Wanfu, the shopkeeper on the stage, was announcing the rules of the first round of the competition: "In the first round of the competition, each of the 24 chefs randomly selected a question, and we sealed the topic in an envelope. Immediately, he raised his hand, and the shopkeeper brought up a tray, which was full of sealed envelopes.
"After drawing the question, ask the chefs to cook at their respective stoves, which have the chefs' room numbers on them. Our cookers are divided into four groups, so chefs can know which group they are in when they find them. The ingredients are on the shelves on both sides of the arena and can be taken at will. The first round of the competition is an hour, and the reason why it takes so long is to ensure that the chef who chooses to make the stew has enough time. The chef who has done a good job can first report his room number to the second junior of the venue store, and the judges will evaluate and vote in turn. The 4 judges can only vote one vote for each dish. A dish with 3 or more votes is considered to have won the first round. ”
"What if all six chefs in a group lose?" An enthusiastic audience asked.
"Then you need a shorty general, and there must be two people in each group to enter the next round." Shopkeeper Liu Wanfu still explained with a smile.
Everyone was stunned. Then, the shopkeeper held a tray and passed in front of each chef in turn, asking them to draw questions.
Fan Erye opened the envelope and saw a poem written on it: After the new rain in the empty mountain.
Lin Miao opened the envelope, and two words were written on it: nostalgia.
