Chapter 57: Competition
The middle-aged manly face turned green.
He has always felt that his father was cooking imperial meals in the palace, and the things he made were for the emperor, the queen mother, the concubines, the prince, etc., and the things eaten in the palace were now taken outside for the people to eat, what a great gift this must be!
Not only do they want to eat, but they also have to be grateful for Dade's eating!
After all, there are very few people who can eat the same thing as the emperor.
Such an honor is simply obtained by the ancestors who burned high incense.
But what is this ugly woman in front of you talking about now? actually said that the emperor's food was not delicious? It's really arrogant! The arrogance is boundless.
"I don't think you've ever eaten anything good, and your humble stomach can't get used to eating such good things, that's why you say that my things don't taste good." The boss angrily slammed the crutches on the ground, and then directly gave Leng Wan an eviction order, "You let me go, I don't welcome people like you who can't taste here." ”
Leng Wan was about to leave, but if the boss didn't say the last word, she would have left directly.
But seeing that this boss actually said that he was a person who couldn't taste it?
Leng Wan immediately decided not to leave.
The quarrel between the two has attracted many passers-by to watch, and many people gathered at the door of the store to watch the excitement.
Leng Wan looked at them, and suddenly raised her voice and asked, "Some of you must have tasted it in the store, right?" Since I don't say it alone, let's talk about it, come, and tell me about what the pastries in the store taste like. ”
When everyone saw Leng Wan suddenly throw the question at them, they instantly looked at each other.
Leng Wan continued: "The boss is generous, even people like me will give a taste when they enter the store, you must be the same, such a generous boss, I must also hope that everyone can give him valuable advice, and if there is improvement, then encouragement, right?" ”
Leng Wan's words were so beautiful that the originally angry boss held his breath in his throat, and he couldn't go up or down.
looked at the onlookers, and in the end, he could only say coldly: "Yes, you all tell me, whether the things in my store are delicious or not, I don't want to listen to compliments today, you just touch your conscience and tell the truth." ”
The boss glanced at Leng Wan, and a touch of arrogance crossed his face.
His pastry has been praised by the queen mother and the eldest princess, how can it not be delicious?
So he was confident that all he heard was compliments.
However, when the people whispered outside the door, the words that came out turned out to be—
"I agree with this girl's words, I have been to the store before, and I also like to eat mung bean cake and taste some, but the imagination is really far from the truth, the dry taste is not as soft as the white flour cake, I am really disappointed!"
"I've also tried mung bean cake and walnut cake, although the flavor is strong, but it's dry, it's really not very delicious!"
"I ate almond crisp, the bitterness and sweetness were so strong that I almost threw up after eating it, it wasn't delicious at all!"
"I don't think it's tasty either......"
One by one, the people said that they had tasted the things in the store.
Originally, they also heard that it was something that the emperor ate, and they came to buy it with longing and curiosity, but in the end they were all disappointed.
Originally, they didn't want to say these words, and they thought that they were used to eating coarse tea and light rice at home and couldn't adapt to such a good thing, but when they heard Leng Wan's words today, they realized that it was not their own reason, and other people felt the same as themselves.
It turns out that the pastries in this shop are really not delicious!
The boss looked at the evaluation of the people and was stunned, and saw that in the end, no one said it was delicious!
He was so angry that he suddenly thought of something and said loudly: "It's your reason!" You ordinary people are the same as this woman, you are suitable for the coarse tea and light rice at home, where are you used to eating such good things, so you say that it is not delicious! Otherwise, if the food in my store is really not delicious, how can the sales be so good? Why do big families come to buy my pastries every day? So, it must be your fault! ”
The people couldn't answer this question.
Could it really be that their stomachs are only suitable for rough things, and they are not used to eating such high-grade things?
They can't help but have such doubts.
But before this voice was generated, it was interrupted by Leng Wan, "How can people distinguish between high and low? Even if their different backgrounds determine the different environments they live in, will they still be divided into high and low with their stomachs? It's a ridiculous joke! ”
The boss frowned, thinking that he was also born in an ordinary peasant family, if it weren't for his father's good cooking skills, the food cooked by coincidence was eaten by the nobles in the palace, and then he was selected to be the imperial chef in the palace, they would not have a good life today.
Therefore, the boss did not mean to look down on ordinary people, but just rushed to the conversation.
But in the face of Leng Wan's questioning, the boss was also unconvinced, seeing that there were more and more people watching the excitement, he simply gritted his teeth and directly wrote to Leng Wan, "Since you said that my food is not delicious, your cooking skills should not be bad, right?" Do you know how to make pastries? ”
Leng Wan raised her eyebrows, realizing that the boss had the intention of competing, and her mind flowed, and she was also interested, "I will do some." ”
"Good! In that case, let's have a public contest and find ten people to judge, these ten people, five of them are selected from these people outside the store, and the other five, I will ask the man to go to the big house to invite the master, do you think it is fair? ”
The boss looked at Leng Wan.
Leng Wan thought for a moment and nodded, "Yes!" ”
When the battle began, the boss quickly asked the guy to go to the back to prepare the ingredients and start the competition!
Leng Wan was afraid that the things she needed were not available in the store, so she made a list for the guy.
After the guy glanced at it, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately showed the list to the boss, who was also stunned when he saw the things on it, but still waved his hand: "Go and get ready." ”
"Yes." The guy immediately went down and got ready.
After a stick of incense, the game officially began.
Because the pastry takes a long time to make, the boss did not rush to invite people to the big family, but made it first, and then asked the guy to invite someone when it was almost over.
Anyway, there are so many people present, and they are not afraid that the two will cheat.
At the beginning of the game, Leng Wan chose to make her favorite mung bean cake, she first put the frozen mung beans in the pot to cook, which was also the reason for the accident of the boss and the guys, I don't understand why Leng Wan wanted to freeze the mung beans.
In ancient times, there was no electricity, and it was not easy to store ice cubes in this season, let alone frozen mung beans, but fortunately, the guys went out to find several stores, and finally bought some.
Next to him, the shopkeeper put down his crutches, and he chose to make mung bean cake.
This is their family's signature and specialty, and he believes that he will win!
The two glanced at each other, each confident.
