Chapter 207: Crisis

Recently, although Lin Jinxiu pressed Qinghelou, there was only a dozen taels of silver between the two families, and they were very close.

"It's good to be able to surpass it."

Lin Jinxiu was excited, and the whole person threw herself on Ning Er's back and hugged her in her arms.

Now when Huai Yanqing teased her, she poked out a pair of watery eyes from the back of Ning Er's head.

Because of the smile squinted slightly, the brilliance seemed to be coming out of it.

Huai Yanqing smiled slightly when she saw Lin Jinxiu's appearance.

"Keep up the good work tomorrow!"

After the things in the stall had been cleaned up, Lin Jinxiu raised his arms and shouted, cheering for today's small victory and cheering for tomorrow.

However, just after Lin Jinxiu and the others left, a few people suddenly came next to the stall in the splendid world.

"Do you understand how?"

"Then let's do it."

……

On the way home, Lin Jinxiu met Chef Xiao of Yushu Pavilion, who won the first and second place, and the shopkeeper of Tianji Building.

Lin Jinxiu greeted the two politely.

Chef Xiao came over to congratulate Lin Jinxiu: "The little girl worked very hard and won the third place, congratulations." ”

Listening to Chef Xiao's words, the shopkeeper's face actually showed a trace of surprise: "What? Splendid World is the third today? What about Qinghe Tower? ”

"Shopkeeper, you also remember to look at the rankings." Chef Xiao looked at Lin Jinxiu with a smile in his eyes, "Even if you have always been the first, you don't have to look at it, you have to pay attention to the situation of other stores." ”

It turns out that the shopkeeper has always not looked at the ranking?

Lin Jinxiu looked at the doubts on the honest face of the shopkeeper, and the time when he was still in school appeared in his mind......

Maybe it's those who don't ask other students about their total scores because they will definitely get the first place.

"Today, Jinxiu pressed Qinghe Tower a little." Chef Xiao's eyes kept looking at Lin Jinxiu when he spoke, and that gentle appearance gave Lin Jinxiu the illusion that Chef Xiao was actually his mother or eldest sister.

My little sister is finally out today!

"You can actually suppress Qinghelou...... "The shopkeeper's surprise seemed to be unable to dissolve for a long time, and he paused for a while before saying, "Amazing." ”

Lin Jinxiu's hands were held in the palms of Chef Xiao's hands and did not let go, which made her a little overwhelmed, so she could only turn her eyes and look around.

After greeting Chef Xiao for a while, Lin Jinxiu was let go, turning around and saying hello while walking in the direction of home.

"The shopkeeper of that floor has a good relationship with Qinghe Building?"

Huai Yanqing and Cui Xu sandwiched Lin Jinxiu in the middle, and after turning a corner and staggering them with the shopkeeper, Huai Yanqing asked Lin Jinxiu.

Hearing Huai Yanqing say this, Lin Jinxiu felt that it seemed that he was a little surprised after learning that he had pressed Qinghelou down just now.

"It's normal." Lin Jinxiu guessed, "It's like I have a good relationship with Chef Xiao." ”

"You two have a good relationship, purely because you are both women." Cui Xu didn't think Lin Jinxiu's statement was right.

"And in my impression, Tianji Tower and Qinghe Tower have always been in a competitive relationship, and now I am a little surprised to suddenly say that they have a good relationship."

"Really......"

Lin Jinxiu fell into deep thought.

Indeed, Tianji Tower, Yushu Pavilion and Qinghe Tower have always been three-legged existences in the county town.

Chef Xiao of Yushu Pavilion is also gentler because she is a woman, and she can't see the smell of competition in front of her.

Could it be that the three of them think that they can be their opponents and begin to cherish each other?

Lin Jinxiu felt that she was simply thinking nonsense.

"Or think of it that way." Huai Yanqing made a bold guess.

"Originally, Qinghelou was pressed by Chef Xiao, the female chef, for a long time, which was already a bit embarrassing, but now there is you Lin Jinxiu, which is probably even more embarrassing for Qinghelou."

"Maybe they don't have a good relationship, and the shopkeeper is so surprised just because two of the top three restaurants in the county are run by women, which makes him feel embarrassed."

Lin Jinxiu felt that Huai Yanqing's guess was not unreasonable, although this reason made Lin Jinxiu sound a little unhappy.

"Don't talk about them." Lin Jinxiu waved his hand, "There is still one day left tomorrow for the food festival, hurry up and go back to rest, so as not to lose your energy tomorrow." ”

Lin Jinxiu and the others returned home and washed and slept one after another, while Lin Jinxiu habitually entered his own space to count his ingredients.

There is very bad news, that is, Lin Jinxiu's carp has run out.

Because he didn't expect that so many people would come to buy his own carp, Lin Jinxiu's preparation was obviously not enough.

There are fewer fry in the pond and they are not ripe at all.

"What should I do...... "It's obviously too late to buy carp again."

"Looks like we'll have to change the dish tomorrow."

The fish are gone, but the vegetables are still there.

Lin Jinxiu went to the edge of his field to harvest the ingredients, put them in his bag, and bought seeds to plant again.

Looking at the tens of thousands of points left in his hand, Lin Jinxiu thought for a while, walked to his farm, and began to feed the chickens regardless of the cost.

In the end, his satisfaction value was consumed to double digits, and Lin Jinxiu stopped.

Looking at the row of cyan eggs rolling out of the chicken pen, she also felt a little more confident in her heart.

"If you can't make other dishes tomorrow, then use this egg."

"But there are less than thirty, what can you do......"

With such a question, Lin Jinxiu got out of the space and fell asleep with his mind full of eggs.

Next.

Today is the last day of the food festival, probably because there is a very wonderful link of scoring and selecting places today, and there are a lot of people who come to the market today.

"It's good." Cui Xu patted Lin Jinxiu on the shoulder to comfort her, "If there are more people, it means that there are more customers, and there are more things that can be sold." ”

Lin Jinxiu nodded and said that it was such a reason, but what she was most afraid of now was not that the number of guests was not enough, but that her ingredients could not keep up.

Speaking of ingredients, Cui Xu and Huai Yanqing are just moving ingredients now.

The rattan basket with a handle was specially bought by Lin Jinxiu in order to put the ingredients, and it is really convenient to hold it in your hand.

Of course, no matter how convenient it is, it is not as convenient as Lin Jinxiu to take it directly from the space bag, and it can be used directly without cleaning.

But in order not to let the people around her see her action of taking things from the space, she could only take the prepared ingredients outside and put them away.

"Shopkeeper, I've got all the ingredients here." Cui Xu neatly arranged the rattan baskets directly below the stove, and after determining what was in each basket, he began to light a fire.

If you have to carry out special smoking work, merchants like Lin Jinxiu don't have to bring their own firewood.

All the firewood used to make the fire is provided by the yamen of Yunzhu County, which is very convenient for the shops to participate.

Looking at the customers who were queuing up to exchange money, Lin Jinxiu sighed, it is really worthy of the county's yamen organization, it is different from the competition initiated by ordinary merchants themselves, and it is more than twice as strong in terms of manpower and budget.

"One, two, three, come on!"

Lin Jinxiu folded their hands together and made a method of cheering that they had learned from their shopkeeper to cheer themselves up.

On the last day, be sure to get a happy ending!

Each performs its duties and is ready to fight.

Just when the guests outside were let in, Lin Jinxiu and Cui Xu began their work.

Lin Jinxiu began to make a new main dish, while Cui Xu was doing the work he had been doing for the previous two days.

Whether it is preparing vegetables, oiling, slow cooking, or fast frying, Cui Xu's hands move quickly.

It's clean, like a machine that never stops, constantly repeating the work at hand.

However, since putting the ingredients into the pot today, Cui Xu can always feel that something is wrong.

But he couldn't tell what was wrong, and the current situation didn't give him time to continue to hesitate.

Everything was going well, but just as Cui Xu turned around to get the ingredients behind him-

Rumble!

The stove behind Cui Xu exploded!

The surrounding diners screamed and retreated, for fear of hurting themselves.

"Ahh Ning'er, who was serving food to the guests, screamed in fright, and took several steps back in a row before realizing what was happening.

"Sister! Brother Xu! ”

Huai Yanqing was also an agitator, and after reacting, he put the plate in his hand on the table, and hurriedly went to see the situation of Lin Jinxiu and the two of them.

The people from the yamen who were patrolling nearby also heard the unusual movement here, and hurriedly ran over to see what was going on.

And Lin Jinxiu, who was very close, didn't expect the stove around him to explode at all, not only was his whole person shocked to the side and fell to the ground, but a large piece of hot oil was also poured on the arm of his left hand, and it came down with a layer of skin.

The sauce in his hand was also completely buckled on the ground and could not be used.

But Lin Jinxiu didn't care about the wound on his arm at this time, because the person closest to the explosion was Cui Xu!

"Brother Xu! Are you okay! ”

Lin Jinxiu hurriedly got up, bypassed the black smoke of the explosion, and looked for where Cui Xu was.

When the people in Ying Helou heard the movement here, they all gasped.

They threw down the stalls in their hands and ran over, and in Lin Jinxiu's exclamation, Huang Tianhe also gasped.

At this time, Cui Xu was being supported by Huai Yanqing, and his situation was not very good.

Lin Jinxiu's arm was burned off a piece of skin by hot oil, but Cui Xuke was not so lucky.

The pot that flew out was almost completely buckled on his body, although he retreated in time and blocked it in time, but the hot oil temperature sprinkled directly on his left arm and half of his body, making him almost faint in pain.

"Why did the stove you prepared explode!"

Seeing that Cui Xu and Lin Jinxiu were both injured, Huang Tianhe turned his head and yelled at the person in charge of the two yamen.

This stove will fry and the chef's operation will have nothing to do with it, it's just simple firewood, who can burn the fire and fry the stove?

However, the person in charge of the yamen was also puzzled after helping to extinguish the fire on the stove.

Obviously all the stoves are new, and nothing happened in the first two days, why did the explosion hurt people on the third day at the most critical time?

"Is there a doctor here?"
