At this time, Elder Guan, who was the judge, came over, and after seeing the old man, he hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted respectfully: "Master Longman, I didn't expect you to come here suddenly, please forgive me for not taking good care of you." ā
"What, Elder Guan of the Guangchu Federation also ....." Dudu covered his mouth, obviously stunned by this scene.
"Master Jidi, who is this old man?" The little master looked at the old man as if they were gods, and he was very curious.
Master Ji didn't expect this scene to happen in front of him, and when the little master asked, he introduced the old man in front of him in detail.
It turned out that this old man called Master Longman was the master chef in charge of the imperial dining room long before Admiral Li, and the authority of the legendary cuisine, it was because of him that cooking was able to flourish all over the country, and several of his disciples are now holding important positions in various places, and all of them are special chefs, it is not an exaggeration to say that he alone supports half of the entire culinary world.
"The disciples are all special chefs, the master chef of the imperial dining room, oh my God, how could such a character appear here, and he also tasted the fried dumplings made by Xiao Dangjia and Wu Xian."
"And he praised it." Dudu suddenly became nervous, hugged the little master, and left tears under the emotion.
However, in his later years, his whereabouts became a mystery, and it is said that he wandered around China in search of outstanding cuisine and outstanding chefs, tasting food everywhere, and did not expect to meet this legendary figure in this place.
But the old man waved his hand to signal the people to get up, and then turned his head to look at Takeo.
"This gentleman's name is Takeo, I don't know if you have ever thought about what the people who taste food are really pursuing, at that time I told you to ask for another plate, not because I was hungry, but yours and Wu Xian, the little master They made it really delicious, but you refused me."
The tone was understated, like a kind old grandfather teaching the juniors, but the words he said were like a thunderbolt that exploded in Takeo's heart.
"I'll tell you the truth, it's not that you have a problem with your dumplings, it's that you have a problem with your personality, and what I said you lacked at that time was your chef's heart."
Looking at Master Longman's appearance, Takeo could no longer bear the faint coercion, threw down the cigarette stick, and ran away in embarrassment.
"Master Longman actually praised the fried dumplings for being delicious, let's go and try them too."
"Okay, hurry up and go to Yangquan Restaurant to have a look."
Due to the high praise of Master Longman, the citizens rushed to the dumpling stall in Yangquan and shouted for a copy.
Seeing so many people rushing over, Dudu protected the little master: "Be careful, with so many people, can you make enough fried dumplings." ā
Glancing at Wu Xian, the little master nodded heavily.
The deserted Yangquan suddenly became popular, the little master and Wu Xian were making dumplings there, and the others also helped to hold the flowers, and they were so busy that they didn't even have time to sweat for a while.
Although they are busy, their hearts are happy.
Looking at their smiles, Master Longman also smiled kindly: "What a happy young man, I believe you will definitely achieve great achievements in the future." ā
"Wait for me, I still have a plate."
The sky is no longer as bright as it was during the day, and the host stands on the high platform and shouts passionately.
"The dumpling competition of the Spring Festival is not long from the end, and it is Yangquan Restaurant that is currently replacing the dumpling brothers who have replaced the first half of the speed, and is accumulating the number of plates at an astonishing speed."
In front of the dumpling stall in Yangquan, Xiao Dangjia and Wu Xian were still busy, and the chef of the restaurant said happily: "The current situation is very good, I didn't expect Wu Xian and Xiao Dangjia to be so powerful, we and the first chef's vision is good." ā
On the contrary to them was the dumpling brothers next to them, there was no one, and Aru looked at the fire not far away and was a little worried.
"It's okay, don't be afraid, we've accumulated so many sets, it's impossible for them to catch up with us." Takeo patted Aru on the shoulder.
"Soon, soon, the sun of fate is about to sink into the western sky, who will win this victory."
Finally, the sun set and a gong sounded, representing the official end of the competition.
The plates are carried to the back one by one, where there will be a special person to sort out the data, and after getting it, it will be handed over to the judges, and after checking the results again, after confirming that they are correct, they will be displayed at the bottom of the high platform, representing the door of fate, and at that time, you will know who won and who lost.
Sitting on the ground, Wu Xian said that he didn't want to move at all, in this dumpling making, he could be regarded as desperately chopping vegetables, preparing fillings, and there was nothing when he made it, and he relaxed after the end, and he really felt how tired he was.
Not only Wu Xian, but also the little master and Dudu and those who were helping were too tired to stand up, sitting on the ground, looking at everyone's embarrassed appearance, and laughing.
It was already completely dark, but the whole venue was full of lanterns, and it looked like it was daytime.
Wu Xian, who had already rested for a while and felt that he had regained his strength slightly, came to the front of the high platform.
The host was already standing on it, holding the results of this competition in his hand.
"I've been waiting for a long time, I believe everyone is looking forward to the results of this competition, then, don't talk nonsense, and now I will announce the results of this competition for everyone."
"First of all, the first finalist is the North Park Hotel." The two beauties on the stage pulled back the curtain, revealing the plates inside.
"One hundred and twenty-four plates."
"The next finalist is Taotaoguan."
"One hundred and eighty plates."
Continue to announce that the next place is Guangzhou Dumpling Restaurant.
"Fifty plates."
"Hurry up and the next one, let's not look at these." The citizens in the audience urged to hurry up and make an announcement.
Seeing the plates on the stage, Master Ji was a little strange: "This year's results are unexpectedly poor, and even last year's winner is only 180 plates." ā
"Banlin Restaurant, eighty-two plates."
"As we all know, this competition is like a super typhoon, full of uncertainty, and the next ones can't even put down the stage, okay, now is the results of the dumpling brothers."
The sudden chirping of the elephant caught everyone's attention, and an elephant came from the side dragging a cart full of plates.
"What, it takes an elephant to pull it, how many plates is this?"
"The Dumpling Brothers' score is 1,242 plates."
"Wow, that's so much."
"It's a staggering number, they've already broken the record of the previous dumpling competition, it's really amazing."
Looking at so many plates, Dudu obviously lost confidence: "Little master, Brother Xian, what should I do?" ā
"Okay, now announce the results of the last store, Yangquan Restaurant."
"They, they are ....."
Another elephant came with a heavy plate, and in the night, two huge elephants kept barking, which deeply stimulated the senses of the citizens.
"Yangquan Restaurant, their results turned out to be 1,244 plates, only exceeding the two plates of the dumpling brothers."
"We won, we won." Just after announcing the results, Dudu shouted loudly, jumped excitedly, and his crazy appearance also drove the people around him.
So the whole audience cheered and celebrated the victory of Yangquan Restaurant.
The little master was not yet immersed in the joy of victory, Wu Xian was completely stunned, when he was hungry watching anime, he still felt that he could really eat so much, but he didn't expect such a shocking scene to happen like this, and he also participated in it.
"They're all so delicious!!" It was his only reaction to being thrown into the sky.
