In the surprise of the cooks, a middle-aged woman rushed out of the crowd and knelt in front of Sikong Yu with a 'poof'.

"Please... Wait, owner."

The woman was dressed as a chef, and although she worked in the kitchen, she was also clean and tidy.

"Lord Yulou, how can you let such an unknown person be the head chef in the building?"

"The position of head chef has been vacant since I took over Yilan Building, what's wrong with the appointment now? Is there a problem with Liang Zhang's kitchen? Sikong Yu frowned.

The woman kneeling on the ground raised her head to her boss Kong Yu, "My subordinates have been working in the kitchen of the building since the previous generation of landlords, and it has been more than 30 years, and my subordinates also have the pride and self-esteem of being the chef of Yilan Building, everyone here has defaulted to no one being in charge of the kitchen, and now I suddenly bring back a maid from outside to become the head chef, this decision is unacceptable to my subordinates."

"What you said also makes sense," Sikong Yu took a few steps with his arms crossed.

"So, you two have a showdown"

"Matchup?"

"Since both parties are in charge of the chef and are full of confidence in their cooking skills, then they use the same topic to make dishes, and the flower girls in the whole building will evaluate the winner."

"But since it's a duel of the chef's self-esteem, you have to move seriously, the winning side will become the head chef of Yilan Building, and the losing side... will be driven out of Yilan Tower, and will never be allowed to set foot in the royal capital for half a step"

“... This... This kind of duel is too cruel," Hearing Sikong Yu's conditions, the woman who had just stood up couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Why not, the girls in this building are working every day with the pride of the women of Flower Street, isn't it the responsibility of you chefs to let them eat delicious food and cheer for their work?"

"It's also a reward for them to have a better chef in charge"

Sikong Yu turned his head to look at Hua Mian, "So if you want to stay, you have to show your determination and leave your cooking skills to yourself."

Hua Mian looked at the woman standing opposite, and the other party was also staring at her, as if they had reached a consensus, and the two nodded together.

Sikong Yu clapped his hands, "Then the topic is to make a breakfast for the flower girls after a night of work, and the materials can only be used in the kitchen."

"If it's ready, get started"

Hua Mian took out the kitchen knife given by Yang Gu from the package, "Do you use your strength to win a job?" Anyway, I don't have a place to go back to, and now all I can trust is this knife and my cooking skills."

With only half an hour, Hua Mian ran to a stove by the wall that was still warm, put the package in his hand aside, picked up the bamboo basket and began to choose the ingredients to be used on the table next to the kitchen.

It is worthy of the royal capital, there is nothing to say about the freshness of the ingredients, and there are so many varieties that can be found even in the kitchen before work.

The chef Liang has worked in the building for many years, and is familiar with the placement of ingredients, giving priority to the selection of good fatty chicken, fish, pork and other meats, and when Huamian goes to choose, there are only some lotus roots, long beans, potatoes, cucumbers and other dishes left.

There are many types of dried goods, and most of the dried fruits here are used for soaking in water, and very few dishes will choose to use them.

The most surprising thing for Huamian is that there is a large jar full of honey, although I know that the price of honey is high, but the landlord is free to use it, and no one restricts Huamian.

If you work all night, you will definitely need a good night's sleep, and looking at the dishes in front of you, Hua Mian has an idea.
