Qin Yongan designated that there is a mysterious backer behind the Fugui Restaurant, although he does not know the specific identity of the other party, but this time the competition of the Fugui Restaurant is undoubtedly a difficult rival.

"Naturally, I heard about it."

As soon as he heard the young owner mention the Fugui Restaurant, the shopkeeper Yuan snorted angrily.

"I've inquired about it, it is said that this Boss Cai of the Fugui Restaurant is planning to participate in person this time!"

Although the shopkeeper Yuan is only in charge of the business in Anjing Town, he has been operating here for many years and has a wide network of contacts, and he is more well-informed than the shopkeeper in Rongquan City.

After Qin Yongan opened his mouth, he immediately began to inquire about the competitor's affairs, and soon learned about it. "Speaking of which, this Boss Cai may not have cooked by himself for a long time, and this time I don't know what I was stimulated by, so I actually planned to participate in person."

"Oh? That's kind of interesting. ”

Qin Yongan nodded thoughtfully when he heard this, and after a while, he suddenly laughed, and the laughter became louder and louder, causing the Yuan shopkeeper on the side to be startled, not knowing what evil this master had fallen into.

"Less, less owner?"

"Nothing." Qin Yongan smiled and waved his hand to the shopkeeper Yuan, but the excitement in his eyes couldn't be concealed, "Shopkeeper Yuan, don't panic, this may be a good thing, have you ever heard of sandpipers competing for fishermen's profits?" ”

The shopkeeper Yuan didn't know why his young owner was suddenly so happy, but when he heard this, his eyes lit up, and he felt that this matter had taken a turn for the better.

"You mean, let Boss Cai and Miss Jiang of Fugui Restaurant fight each other, so that Chef Gu can stand out from it?"

"Yes, that's what it means!"

Qin Yongan slapped the table and made a crisp sound. "Boss Cai is not an easy one to deal with, as long as he has him to contain Jiang Li, we don't need to worry about Chef Gu not winning at that time!"

The two of them looked at each other and thought it was a great idea.

Jiang Liang didn't know that he was going to be pitted by Qin Yongan at this time, so he hurried home, just to confirm whether the figure he saw near Qianxiang Tower was Jiang Dahai.

She has never relaxed her vigilance against this cheap father, even though Jiang Dahai has indeed behaved very calmly during this time, not only helping Li Cuilan with things, but also having a different attitude towards several children than in the past.

The whole person looks as if he is really ready to change his mind and be a new person, but the nature of the country is easy to change, and she has always been wary of him.

Of course, Jiang Liang didn't want his family to be sad, so even if he was dissatisfied with Jiang Dahai in his heart, he didn't show it. But she didn't think that Jiang Dahai would really change his ways.

As the saying goes, the country is easy to change, and some people seem to really want to change on the surface, but unfortunately they are not the kind of people who do their duty in their bones.

"Eldest sister, are you in a hurry, is there something wrong?"

Jiang Jinbao just ran out of the house, originally going to go out with a group of friends, but he didn't expect to see Jiang Liang running back in a hurry, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this.

"What about the people of the river and the sea?"

As soon as Jiang Liang entered the house, he directly grabbed the little brother and asked him, wanting to make sure that he was not mistaken.

"Ah, do you have something to do with your father?"

At this moment, Jiang Dahai came out of the house and looked at his eldest daughter in surprise, as if nothing had happened.

However, Jiang Liang was not stupid, and when he saw his soaked clothes at a glance, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

"It's okay, I just thought that the ground at home should be loosened, you clean up and go to the ground!"

Jiang Dahai immediately made a bitter face when he heard this, he had never done much rough work in his life, and working in the field was a hard chore for him.

He subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to refuse, but his eyes touched Jiang Li's cold eyes, and the words he wanted to say were quickly swallowed back, so he could only nod reluctantly, turned around and went into the house to get a hoe and walked directly to the piece of land at home.

Jiang Dahai only thought that he was not exposed, and he successfully concealed the past, and he was still a little happy in his heart.

He felt annoyed when he thought that Qin Yongan was only willing to offer a hundred taels to buy the recipe, and secretly thought about the next step in his heart, since the road on the other side of Qianxianglou was impassable, he could only look for other buyers.

Jiang Liang watched Jiang Dahai leave his sight coldly, and only after a while did he turn his head to look at his little brother.

"Jinbao, you keep an eye on Jiang Dahai for me, if he has anything abnormal, you must tell me as soon as possible."

Jiang Jinbao knew that the eldest sister's words must be reasonable, so he nodded busily.

Although there was a time bomb like Jiang Dahai at home, Jiang Liang was not affected, and then began to teach his mother Li Cuilan to make pastries seriously.

She not only taught Li Cuilan how to make crystal mooncakes, but also taught some ordinary pastries.

Although Li Cuilan's culinary talent is not very high, she is willing to endure hardships and is meticulous in her work, but she quickly mastered the production of several pastries.

After a while, Lu Yiyue took Jiang Liang to Rongquan City.

When I went to Rongquan City again, this time Jiang Liang was also familiar with the road.

Zhang Zhixian specially chartered an entire restaurant for this cooking competition, and invited several influential figures in Rongquan City to serve as judges.

After all, Zhang Zhixian is not a glutton, and he is not very particular about eating on weekdays, thinking that food is used to fill his stomach, and he does not need to pursue his appetite too much.

It is also for this reason that he specially invited several wealthy businessmen and gentry who are quite influential in the city to join him, which can also make the result more just.

The county government chartered a whole restaurant, set up a few tables in the lobby of the restaurant, prepared the pot stove and various kitchen utensils needed for cooking in advance, and directly arranged everything to prepare for the competition.

The momentum of this cooking competition is still quite big, before the start of the crowd attracted a lot of onlookers to surround the restaurant, everyone is very curious about the Rongquan City among so many restaurants who have the most exquisite chef skills, can get a lot of praise from the big people.

This year's competition is divided into a preliminary round and a final round, despite the large number of chefs who participated, only five chefs made it to the finals.

So far, they don't know the rules of the finals, but they know the requirements of the preliminary round, and all the participating chefs present need to make two dishes, one meat and one vegetarian. The judges will taste in turn, and there are a total of five judges present, including Zhang Zhixian, and the highest score that each judge can give is a full score of 10.

In the final result, only the five highest-rated players will advance to the next round of finals.

At the beginning of the competition, Jiang Liang just glanced at the surrounding layout, and walked directly to the position in the center of the lobby to select the ingredients.
