Although Chen Ruolan still has a lot of things in her heart that she wants to ask Zhou Yu for advice, since it is just in time for the opening of the big competition, these government affairs should be put into account later.

Speaking of the opening, it is actually an introduction to the participating chefs and invited guests. In this kind of scene, the identities of the people who come are complicated, it is not strange for the princes and nobles to come, and it is normal for ordinary small landlords to come. After all, people live on food, so who can refuse to come and taste something delicious?

Although theoretically speaking, it is okay for ordinary people to come and observe. However, the seats in the venue are limited, and those who can sit in it are either black yarns on their heads or wealthy families. On ordinary days, people who don't have money pass by Donghai Tower and don't even look at it. There is no other reason, so why humiliate yourself if you are shy in your pocket? But today is different, the building is full of friends, and there are a lot of people outside the door.

People standing outside will definitely not be able to eat, but it is always okay to smell the fragrance and open their eyes. After bragging with others, I have a little more to talk about. These people who can't even enter the door may show off in front of those partners who don't know the truth, saying that they have been fortunate enough to participate in the chef competition in the capital, and then talk about how bright the color of this dish is, how refreshing the fragrance is, and as for the taste, they can only pick up the comments given by those who have tasted it in the lobby. In this way, he made something out of nothing, so that his friend would think that he was a man who had seen the world, and hoped that the other party would look up to him for it, or satisfy his poor vanity.

From the above, although Chen Jin, the king of Yu, and Chen Ruolan, the princess, both appeared, they still did not cause exclamations at the scene. First, everyone lives in the capital, and there are many princes and generals on weekdays; Second, everyone is a person with status, Chen Jin and Chen Ruolan are visiting in micro-service, and everyone salutes.

In addition to the two of them, the one who can cause some commotion is probably Su Wen, the top Qing person in Minghualou. Zhou Yu hid backstage, listening to the host's introduction of Su Wen's identity, his eyes fluttered slightly, but he still didn't go out to meet her.

After introducing the guests, we also had to introduce the origins of each chef.

When Li Erniu was spoken, there was a hint of surprise in everyone's eyes, but more of them were questioning.

The questioning look in the eyes quickly turned into verbal attack.

"Who is this kid? Why didn't you get all the hair up?"

"It can't be a related household, right? You have to choose a bigger one, how do you let a child participate in the big competition?"

"If you want me to say, I guess it's the nephew of a rich family who spent some money to participate in the competition, gilded with gold!"

"Look at his hand, it's not as big as mine, can he cook......

Li Erniu raised his eyebrows and pointed coldly at Qianfu, just because Zhou Yu told him before the game: "You just need to cook the dishes, you don't care what others say about you." Remember, when they question you, that's when you prove yourself!"

However, as Zhou Yu's iron buddy, Chen Jin helped Li Erniu set up a field. Before the start of the game, he provided the host with an introduction to Li Erniu.

"This chef's name is Li Erniu, don't look at his young age, but he is the proud apprentice of the first chef in Luozhou, the chef of Luozhou Juxian Building!" The host said with emotion.

Originally, Li Erniu was immune to everyone's fingering, but the host's words really made him a little nervous, if Zhou Yu wasn't still waiting in the audience, he couldn't wait to flee the scene now.

At the same time, the audience began to talk again.

"Juxian Lou, have you heard of it?"

"I haven't been to Los Angeles, how do I know about that place? The old horse has been there, ask him!"

"Don't say it, the last time I went to Luozhou to dump goods, I happened to have a meal in this Juxian Building, and the dishes were ...... Hey, don't lose to this Donghai Tower at all!"

"Really? That's a comparison, you say that Donghai Tower is not even as good as that Gathering Immortal Building, right?"

"Who knows? If someone really has a housekeeping skill that you haven't seen before, it's possible to win by surprise!"

"I'm still more optimistic about Donghai Building, decades of heritage are there, and a hairy boy will lift the field of Donghai Building, which is not realistic......

Fortunately, Chen Jin's words still played a certain positive role, and the scene was already a little good

Bin began to have expectations for Li Erniu.

Su Wen listened to the host's introduction and was shocked. What is Luozhou Juxian Tower? Isn't that what he drove it? The people from Juxian Tower are here, does that mean that he has also arrived in the capital?

The girl's mind is complicated, and even Su Wen herself can't figure out what to do now. But since he didn't show up, maybe the time to meet has not yet come. Besides, even if they met, she didn't know what to greet and talk about.

I'm afraid that both of them will fall into boundless embarrassment.

Su Wen was distracted, but the host's introduction continued. It didn't take long for all the contestants to be introduced, but the most promising winner in everyone's minds was still the chef of Tokai Building.

But conjecture can't be directly translated into reality, whether it's a mule or a horse, you can only know when you pull it out.

As the host announced the start of the competition, the contestants picked up their kitchen utensils to show their talents.

The type of dish that everyone is good at is different, and the method will naturally be different, but the most conspicuous action is Li Erniu. The main reason is that his sweet and sour loin occasionally turns the spoon, saying that it is a spoon, but in fact it has to be turned together with the pot.

With such a large movement, no one but him used it.

Although everyone was a little confused, they didn't say anything, after all, maybe this is a special form of cooking. But Chen Ruolan noticed something wrong, and the biggest suspicion was the pot used by Li Erniu. First, the color of his pot is different from others; Second, the texture of his pot seems to be harder than others', and the sound of the spatula colliding with the wall of the pot is incessant, even if it is a copper pot, it is impossible to do this.

"Xiao Jin, is there any mystery in Li Erniu's pot?" Chen Ruolan asked Chen Jindao, who was sitting beside her.

"Hehe, you can see that. To tell the truth, Erniu's pot is not a copper pot, but an iron pot! I'll tell you quietly, don't tell me, his iron is the one I bought from the iron mine in Zhaozhou last time!" Chen Jin whispered.

"Iron pot? I know that the army uses iron pots for cooking, but it is only to boil some large pots, and I have never seen such a practice." Chen Ruolan was still puzzled.

"Of course you haven't seen it, this pot is operated by Zhou Yu himself from iron selection and casting, and I can't even understand the process. Don't say it, you really let him drum it up!" Chen Jin said proudly, after all, there is still a credit for the emergence of this iron pot.

"You mean, Zhou Yu still knows how to smelt and fan cast?"

"That's right, this kid knows a lot of things, not only Fan Zhu, but many other things you can't think of him!" Chen Jin added.

This news is a bit surprising, now Wenguo is in a period where it is necessary to improve iron-smelting technology, and having a master Fan Zhu to guide the work is of great help to Wenguo and other aspects.

"Now that the Ministry of Industry is employing people, since he has this talent, after this competition, I will recommend him to my father to serve in the Ministry of Industry!" As the princess of Wenguo, Chen Ruolan is also dedicated to making suggestions for the development of Wenguo.

"I advise you to discuss with him in advance, his eyes are above the top, and I am afraid that the Ministry of Industry will not be able to enter his eyes. But it should still be okay for him to teach the group of people in Fan Foundry." Chen Jin, who is familiar with Zhou Yu, gave his own advice.

"Huh? was directly promoted from a cloth cloth to a six-product Ministry official, which is not something that few people can do in the history of my country! He doesn't even look down on this, so what kind of official does he want to be?" Chen Jin's words made Chen Ruolan even more confused about Zhou Yu's thoughts.

Thinking of what Zhou Yu had told him that he wanted to be the prime minister of Wenguo, Chen Jin couldn't help laughing, but in the end he didn't tell Chen Ruolan about it, but just said perfunctorily: "Anyway, he definitely doesn't like this kind of petty official, and he still expects to make a lot of money by relying on ticket numbers and dart games!" If you let him enter the court as an official at this time, I think he must be reluctant. Besides, aren't you going to make a stake in that ticket and dart game too?"

"Both this ticket number and the dart game are industries that benefit people's livelihood, and I should support them strongly. However, joining the court as an official is also for the benefit of the people, since he has this ability, what is wrong with obtaining his position and seeking his own government?" Chen Ruolan still wants to pull Zhou Yu into the Ministry of Industry.

"I don't think there's anything wrong with what you said, but I advise you to observe more, this kid has a lot of secrets, maybe one day you will find out that he is suitable to serve in the military department, don't make such arbitrary conclusions!" Chen Jin reminded.

Chen Ruolan nodded, but her mind was still thinking about what kind of ability Zhou Yu had.

As he spoke, the chef's specialty dishes had been prepared. Cooking is all about color, flavor, and flavor, and every chef pays attention to these issues. But there is only one dish of clear soup with little water, and it looks mediocre.

"What is this, a cabbage? Let's scrape the oil?"

"Yo, people are worried that you are tired of eating big fish and meat all day long, so they made a cabbage soup for you, so you can steal the fun!"

"Coincidentally, I like to be a vegetarian, and I really can't get used to eating this cabbage......

The guests who don't know the inside story are still pointing at Li Erniu's "boiling water cabbage", which has worked the most, but as long as they take a serious look at the expressions of the judges, they won't say so.

The person who came to the imperial dining room saw this ingenious dish at a glance, and years of cooking experience told him that this was definitely not a simple cabbage.

Sure enough, after tasting its fragrance and taste, all the judges agreed that this is the most potential dish in this competition, and it has the meaning of discord in it.

"What's the name of this dish?" Chen Ruolan only tasted a spoonful of soup, her eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to ask.

"Boiling cabbage!" Chen Jin reported that unpretentious name, which contrasted sharply with its amazing taste.
