Chapter Forty-Eight: A Momentary Reversal of the Situation
The grand occasion of Qian Chen's booth kept Shi Yu, who acted as a packer and cashier, very busy.
If she hadn't been a top student and had first-class mental arithmetic, she would have been dizzy a long time ago.
In a hurry, Shiyu took the time to peek at the other side, only to find that Isabella did not have a trace of waves on her face, and she was still performing her cooking performance step by step.
What surprised her even more was that even the golden retriever dog did not show a trace of panic.
As if she had spotted Shiyu's gaze, Ying Lili raised her head and glanced at her.
Shi Yu clearly felt the mockery and ridicule in Ying Lili's eyes.
Shi Yu couldn't help but chuckle in her heart.
I'm afraid that the other side is not a fake golden retriever.
Shi Yu hurriedly looked at his younger brother Jun beside him, but found that Qian Chen was very well received for his stall, and he didn't seem to have any reaction to being far ahead.
After years of getting along day and night, Shi Yu even found a trace of undetectable solemnity between Qian Chen's eyebrows.
Sure enough, when Isabella's first pot of dessert came out, the situation changed in an instant.
The moment Isabella turned on the oven, a rich aroma of butter mixed with malt instantly swept the audience, and the aroma of Qian Chen's fried buns was directly covered up to almost inaudible.
The entire exhibition area covers an area of hundreds of square meters, completely enveloped in this aroma, as if the field released by the top master of the novel.
The moment he smelled this aroma, Qian Chen's face instantly sank.
With his many years of experience as a big foodie in his previous life, with this aroma alone, he knew that he would lose 100% of the time when he fought with the other party.
The two sides are not in the same dimension at all.
After the tension, an inexplicable blood surged into my heart.
This is the first time that Qian Chen has faced a genius among his peers.
An ordinary Toyonosaki Academy hides such a master, the Engetsu Academy, which can be called the temple of Japanese cuisine, and the entire Japanese cuisine world.
Japan, which is so full of talents, can only be regarded as a small cooking country in the whole world, and how many geniuses will there be in the Celestial Empire, which is known as the world's four major culinary empires, who are the same age as him, or even younger than him.
Expand that to the whole world.
The world is really interesting!
Just when Qian Chen fell into emotion, under the counterattack of the aroma bomb released by Isabella, the entire exhibition area suddenly fell silent.
Then almost all of them showed a fanatical expression.
"Boss! I want to buy it! ”
The crowd chanted in unison, and Isabella's booth appeared.
Even the discipline committee members, who were supposed to be responsible for maintaining order at the scene, shouted one after another, waving the banknotes in their hands to join the scramble.
In just a few seconds, the tourists lined up in front of Qianchen's booth were suddenly swept away, and all of them flocked to Isabella's booth.
Ying Lili, who had been holding back for a long time, suddenly had a sense of pleasure raising her eyebrows, if it weren't for the wrong time and occasion, she really wanted to look up to the sky and laugh three times.
Now she could only throw Shi Yu a defiant look first.
The meaning in that look was clear - we won this game!
Ying Lili can't wait for Shiyu to wear her selection of various colorful clothes, and let her fiddle with it this and that, to provide her with inspiration for the next book.
At this time, the crowd was so frenzied that they almost crowded into the stalls.
Ying Lili's eyes suddenly widened, revealing the small tiger teeth in her mouth.
"Don't squeeze! Line up one by one in order, otherwise you will be disqualified! ”
Originally, this kind of service attitude of Ying pear pear will cause strong dissatisfaction among people.
However, Isabella's dessert seems to be too tempting.
The crowd obediently lined up under the 'roar' of Ying Lili.
Ying Li Li quickly brought the baked dessert.
It was half a palm-sized, crispy and golden brown, topped with red strawberry jam or fresh cream, similar to cookies, but thicker, with an irregular surface.
"It's Scone!"
Immediately, a tourist who recognized it shouted.
Scone, scones. This is the most common and most photographed dessert in British afternoon tea.
However, when Yingli put the price list up, the scene suddenly exploded.
Scone, 2,000 yen each, up to two per person.
It is equivalent to a piece of scone cake to be sold for a terrifyingly high price of more than 120 Celestial Dynasty coins.
A piece of biscuits that can be eaten in one bite is so expensive!?
The first visitor in line was also a 30-year-old man with his family.
The school festival in Japan is also an open day for the campus, and a large number of residents living in the vicinity of the school come to visit.
"How can such a small cookie be sold for such a price!?"
When the man saw the price list clearly, he immediately exclaimed.
A hint of impatience flashed in Ying Lili's eyes, but she still patiently explained.
"We use the best wheat, jam and cream, and our chef is...
"English pear."
At this moment, Isabella, who was making cream, suddenly spoke.
Ying Lili immediately swallowed back the second half of the sentence, glanced at Isabella helplessly, and then turned to the guest.
"I'm sorry, if you don't want to buy, please give up your spot, thank you."
The tourists lining up behind the man also shouted.
"Don't buy it, don't get in the way!"
"It's just too expensive, don't buy it, people don't force you!"
The roar of the crowd, the wives and children longing for their eyes.
The man gritted his teeth.
"Please give me two."
"4,000 yen!"
Ying Lili, who had made her first business, seemed very happy, but soon she had no time to be happy.
Because there is an endless stream of people buying.
Even if it was a sky-high price of 2,000 yen, the tourists who lined up obediently paid for two of them.
Some people are too expensive, and Yingli is still aggrieved in her heart.
Because it is a special treasure for the British royal family, the cost of each scone is almost 2,000 yen, plus the value of Isabella's nine-star chef.
If you put it anywhere else, each piece can be sold for more than 10,000 yen.
It was this price that she herself struggled to convince Isabella to reduce to almost the cost price.
As for the sale at a loss in order to win.
As a genius girl who received a nine-star evaluation at a young age, Isabella has her own pride, and the cost price is already the bottom limit that she can accept.
Soon, in a minute, all the freshly baked scones were sold out.
The tourists at the back of the queue suddenly wailed, and now they had to wait for a long time.
At this time, the first man to buy scones squeezed out of the crowd and returned to his family in the envious eyes of everyone.
First he handed one of them to his son, and then the other to his wife, a beautiful young woman with a graceful temperament.
But his wife didn't answer.
"Honey, why don't we eat half of it."
The man was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile.
"Okay."
"However, I want you to feed me~"
So the tourists, who treated the man's family as guinea pigs and were waiting to observe their reaction after tasting it, were suddenly slapped in the face with a full load of dog food.
