Chapter 55: Amazing Choice
The second round of written examinations was held as scheduled. Of the 40 candidates waiting outside Trang House, only 10 of them passed the written exam. Only the first 10 students to pass will be able to enter the third round of the competition.
Strength and luck are indispensable.
The question in the written test is: What if you are not satisfied with your food?
The seemingly simple topic has another mystery. The candidates who got the question were relieved, this is a very common question. As long as you answer well, you can pass.
"If I'm not satisfied with my dish, I'll remake it!"
"We can improve on the original basis, and we can definitely do better the second time."
"Not satisfied with the dish? If you are not satisfied, throw it away. ”
All kinds of answers were written on paper, and Jin Se looked at them one by one. Reading several in a row was not the answer she wanted.
I know that I see a row of small words: "If the dish is not satisfied, I will ask the guest who eats the dish what is not good." And apologize to him and recook a delicious dish for him until he is satisfied. ”
Jinse's purpose is simple, to find the chef who will think about the guests. A good cook cooks for the sake of the guests, and it is really good only if the guests say it is good.
This is the mystery of the written test, as long as you can type the guest can pass the second round of re-selection.
10 participants successfully passed the second round of the second round, and in the third round, the topic was to change the dish, and each person in a team of two made a dish first, and then exchanged with each other to improve the other's dish.
Whoever can make a dish that satisfies the other party and the judges will pass the assessment.
After the third round of assessment, only 3 people were finally recognized by the same group of cooks.
These three people are Wang Xiaoer, Lin Chong, a famous chef in Dijing City, and Song Wumei, who fled.
The three of them have their own strengths, and Jin Se has a hard time choosing, so she finally decides to use a modern dish to test the cooking skills of the three of them.
"I'll ask you a question, which of you can do it, and do it the most. Who's the chef I have hired in a tavern. Jin Se looked at the three of them, all of them looking forward to the final test, "I announced that the topic of the final selection is hamburger. You can start doing it now. ”
The three people, who were originally full of confidence, looked at each other when they heard this question.
"What the hell is this? I've never heard of it. "Lin Chong, the celebrity chef of Dijing City, is the chef with the highest cooking skills in this audition. His master is Chef Jiang, a famous chef in Yangcheng, who once cooked dishes for the emperor.
Before Jin Se found Niu Xingang to be the chef, he had asked Chef Jiang to be the head chef, but unfortunately Chef Jiang's asking price was too high for Jin Se to pay.
"You can play as you please." Jin Se was not prepared to embarrass the three of them, "My dish is quite special, you can use your imagination." Xiaobao put away the chopsticks! ”
Jin Se had no head and no brain, and his words gave Wang Xiaoer inspiration. It is definitely something that can be eaten with your hands without chopsticks. Is it a cake or a bun?
Wang Xiaoer was the first to enter the kitchen of Zhuangfu. He began to make noodles ready to make.
Song Wumei was not to be left behind, and also followed. Only Lin Chong was unhurried, he really didn't know what a hamburger was, and he was ready to make a random errand.
As long as the taste is done well, everything is the same, two fools. He walked slowly into the kitchen, took out his kitchen knife and began to cut meat.
The three of them made the dish "hamburger" according to their own understanding.
The burger is made with a flatbread spread out in a bowl with a variety of side dishes.
"That's what I think, Hamburg, Hamburg, a fortress isn't just a wall. I put the dish in the middle and made a wall out of bread. When eating, hold the bread and hold the food so that your hands don't get dirty. What he said was reasonable, and Jin Se almost believed it.
The burger made by Lin Chong is a crispy dumpling, which is his specialty snack: "My burger is a crispy dumpling, and it is my best pick." Jin Se silently crossed him in his heart, he didn't want to try, what was the use of having a good cooking skill.
Finally, there was Song Wumei, only she saw Jin Se's one-handed pinching action with her hands. Judged that the burger was a food that could be pinched with one hand.
"What you can hold with one hand is nothing more than steamed buns, and Miss Zhuang just said that it can be done, and it can be done most likely. I really don't know what a burger is. But I can make something that the girl can eat with one hand. Song Wumei made a hollow steamed bun, and she put crispy side dishes in it.
Jin Se looked at the dishes of the three of them one by one, and finally announced loudly: "I chose Song Wumei to be the head chef of a tavern for us." ”
"I'm not convinced, you haven't tasted a bite, her broken steamed buns can be better than my crispy dumplings." Lin Chong threw the plate angrily.
The plate shattered to the ground, and shards fell everywhere. "Miss, you're not hurt, are you?" Old Uncle Zhong was the first to step forward. Dare to go wild in Zhuangfu, and don't look at what kind of place this is.
"Brother Xia, someone is bullying the shopkeeper!" Qian Bao heard the movement and hurriedly summoned Xia Zhuzhi.
Before Xia Zhuzhi entered the kitchen, the person had already been thrown out by Old Uncle Zhong.
"Throw it out of the house, don't dirty the ground in the house." Old Uncle Zhong commanded. Xia Zhuzhi didn't expect that the seemingly harmless old Zhong Yi was actually equipped with martial arts, so he nodded hurriedly and dragged Lin Chong out of the mansion.
Jin Se poked his head out of the kitchen: "Don't panic, let him lose the plate and leave." This plate is worth 5 cents. ”
Poor Lin Chong, dizzy, was taken out of the money bag by Xia Zhuzhi and took 5 yuan, and was thrown out. What the hell is this place, he's never coming again!
Wang Xiaoer lost the final election, a dignified seven-foot man, he couldn't help crying. Without the money, how can he go back and explain. There are younger siblings waiting to eat at home.
He knelt down in front of Jin Se with a plop: "Shopkeeper, please do well and accept me." I don't work as a chef, I can do a small job. Give me a job to feed my family. ”
Seeing him crying sadly, Song Wumei also couldn't bear it: "Shopkeeper, accept him." I just need a helper. ”
The man has gold under his knees, and it is the first time that he has been knelt in ancient Jinse, so she hurriedly helped Wang Xiaoer: "Don't don't, you will lose your life." I'll accept you, you give the fifth sister a hand for the time being, she said what are you doing. ”
A big man is not particularly bitter, and he will not cry easily. Jin Se understands Wang Xiaoer's mood, just pay an extra salary, and she can also prepare an extra cook.
Maybe I'll have to open a branch store in the future, and I'll be able to use it then.
No one expected that the chef of a tavern in the imperial capital city was actually a woman. No one knows how much of a storm this will bring.
There is a tavern in the Imperial City store with two more newcomers, and in order to celebrate, they will have a banquet and eat good things as usual.
Song Wumei is the best at fish dishes, and she made a whole fish banquet for everyone.
Oyster King Fish Noodles, Sauerkraut Fish, Tomato Fish, Fish Head Soup, Chopped Pepper Fish Head, and a table full of dishes are all made from various parts of the fish.
"I am the first time I came to the Imperial Capital City, and I am fortunate to meet you. The fifth sister toasted everyone. "Song Wumei, who has malt-colored skin, has a hearty personality and is optimistic and cheerful. At first glance, he is a person who is easy to get along with.
Jin Se was happy that he had two more partners: "Cheers to welcome the fifth sister and the second child!" ”
"Cheers!" The crowd raised their glasses to celebrate the event.
Jinse's plan to have a tavern in the Imperial City has taken another big step forward. Now that there are shops and cooks, the only problem left is the supply.
The Imperial City is not like Yangcheng, as long as you can buy cheap and affordable goods on West Street.
There are many merchants, shops, and swindlers here. Jinse didn't want to pick up the goods from an unfamiliar supplier.
If only Bayard were still around, he didn't have to worry about not having milk. It's a pity that Bayar and Tana have already come to the Imperial City, he is a nomadic merchant, and now he doesn't know which town he has gone to.
The only hope now is Qinglian Zhai in the imperial capital. Where not only are there many goods, but the price is also acceptable to Jinse. The only problem is that they generally only take big orders.
That is, a very cheap piece of goods, you have to buy hundreds or thousands. How to deal with so many raw materials is a problem, and Jinse needs to study it carefully.
In order to find out the goods, Jin Se had to come to Qinglian Zhai again.
This time she didn't line up, and when Ah Xia saw her, she took someone directly to the side door to enter.
"Miss Zhuang, are you looking for someone again today?" Ah Xia walked in front and asked casually.
"No, I'm here to buy something today. I'm going to open a tavern in the city of Teijing. Need some special goods, I may not be able to buy them in normal places. ”
Jin Se was still sent to He Lao, and the news of her coming to Qinglian Zhai was also transmitted to Li Haoyue as soon as possible.
"Little girl, I ran away last time, and I won't let you escape from my palm again this time." Li Haoyue played with the folding fan in her hand, and the corners of her mouth raised a good-looking arc.
After waiting in the room, Jinse's half cup of tea had already been eaten, and no one had come to receive him.
What's going on today? Qinglian Zhai is not in business?
She stood up, ready to go out and ask.
The door was suddenly pushed open, and the white-clothed beauty shook the folding fan and slowly walked in from the door.
Oh, it's him again! How did this family get here?
Jin Se took two steps back, there was really nothing around him to defend himself from. I had to pick up the teapot on the table: "You, you...... Stay away from me. I don't have a brother, and I don't know you. ”
She made a gesture to throw the teapot in her hand, but the other party was not threatened.
"Nonsense." The beauty smiled, and the paper fan was gently picked. The teapot in Jin Se's hand was in the other party's hand. Then he made a circle with his backhand, and the teapot turned into an arc in the air and returned to the table.
The weapon was confiscated, and Jinse was no match for the other party at all. The man in front of her was so beautiful that she had no ability to resist his appearance.
As the other party walked in, Jin Se no longer dared to look at people. She blushed and bowed her head, covering her face with her hands.
She can now fully understand Qian Chengle's mood when she looks at herself on weekdays: "Men and women don't kiss." Can you stand a little farther away? ”
Li Haoyue was really funny when he saw Jin Se's shy and helpless appearance, and he deliberately got closer: "I'm standing far away, how can I talk to you." ”
Ahh Jin Se couldn't stand it and wanted to run again. But this time she hadn't been able to run two steps, when a gust of wind blew, and the gate was in front of her eyes.
"Running once or twice, I really have no temper when I am a brother? Come and sit down! Li Haoyue put away her smile, shook her fan seriously, and sat down on the chair, "I am the master of Qinglian Zhai, Li Haoyue." I heard you want to come and buy something? ”
