"Xiao Xu, you don't want to buy a pig to go into the water, right?" Seeing Liu Xiaoxu's expression, Lu Ping's expression couldn't help but be a little worried.

"That's right, I'm just going to buy pig water to use as ingredients for tomorrow's competition. Boss, how do you sell pigs?" asked Liu Xiaoxu.

"Pigs are not worth a few dollars, if you want, as long as fifty dollars, these pigs will be given to you. The boss pointed to the barrel at his feet, which was full of all kinds of internal organs of the pig.

"Bought it!" As soon as Liu Xiaoxu said this, everyone present was shocked.

Is pig water something that people can eat? Using it as an ingredient, this kid is poor and crazy, right?

Guan Da Po even laughed in surprise: "Hahaha, I heard you right, right? This kid wants to use pig water as an ingredient...... Hahahaha, it's really thoughtful. Liu Xiaoxu, Liu Xiaoxu, don't just talk about it, I'm still waiting to see the show tomorrow!"

The little brother behind him also competed to ridicule.

"Take the pig into the water as an ingredient, and he can figure it out. ”

"That's it, I still want to compare my cooking skills with the boss, it's really overwhelming. ”

"In tomorrow's competition, the boss will definitely crush him. ”

Even Lu Ping was anxious and said: "Xiao Xu, calm down, you can't buy pork, we can find another way, no matter how bad it is, we can also buy other alternative ingredients, there is no need to put this breath." ”

He felt that Liu Xiaoxu was a swollen face and a fat man.

Even the butcher said, "Little one, if you really don't have any money, I can give you a small piece of meat for free, this kind of thing like pig water is dirty and fishy, and it is difficult to eat, I really don't recommend you to buy it and eat it." ”

Liu Xiaoxu waved his hand and said: "Thank you boss, but no, in fact, the pig is ready to go into the water, and the taste is no worse than pork." ”

These words provoked the stool management and his little brother to laugh at him again.

Seeing that Liu Xiaoxu was so stubborn, the butcher shook his head and said nothing more.

After buying the pig into the water, Liu Xiaoxu bought some side dishes at the market, and when he passed by the tofu stall, he also bought two catties of tofu.

In this world, except for the price of meat, which is a bit expensive, the other ingredients are very cheap, and they only cost less than three taels of silver in total.

It wasn't until the sun went down that Liu Xiaoxu and Lu Ping returned to the sect.

On the way back, Lu Ping always frowned, looking worried. Liu Xiaoxu knew that he was worried that he would not be able to compete tomorrow, especially after he bought the pig water as ingredients, he was even more optimistic, so he comforted him and said: "Don't worry, since I dare to use the pig water as ingredients, I naturally have my considerations, and I will not lose tomorrow's competition." ”

Lu Ping listened, but he couldn't stop sighing.

Following.

Early in the morning, many outer disciples gathered in the room, all of whom came to watch the game. After all, the competition between Guan Poop and Liu Xiaoxu determines who will be the next owner of the house, which is directly related to their future food tastes and is closely related to everyone.

Since Steward Hu hadn't come yet, and Liu Xiaoxu and Guan Dafe hadn't arrived yet, everyone was bored and talked about today's game.

"I think Guan Po will win, after all, he has been in the house for many years, and his cooking skills are here. ”

"That's right, Liu Xiaoxu is only fourteen years old, how can such a little doll be good at cooking. ”

"The most important thing is that I heard that since this kid entered the sect, he has only done some chores of chopping wood and burning fires, and he has never touched the stove at all. Even if you really have some cooking skills, I'm afraid it's rusty. ”

Many disciples are not optimistic about Liu Xiaoxu.

But there are also those who disagree.

"This is a mistake, in fact, cooking and cultivation are the same principle, both depend on talent. Therefore, the quality of cooking cannot be determined by age and experience. ”

"In my opinion, Liu Xiaoxu dared to challenge Guan Dapo, he must have come prepared, and he may not be without the possibility of winning. ”

"As the so-called back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, a generation of new people replace the old people, today's competition, I am more optimistic about Liu Xiaoxu. ”

As for who wins and who loses, two completely opposite camps were formed on the spot, and the two sides insisted on their own words and argued fiercely.

Before the competition began, the atmosphere of the scene had already been mobilized. Some people even launched a bet on today's competition, and many disciples bet one after another.

Most of the people are betting on the victory of the stool, but there are also a considerable number of people who are betting on Liu Xiaoxu's victory.

"Brother, are you stupid? Is there still suspense in today's competition, naturally it is the experienced Guan Da Po who wins, and if you bet on Liu Xiaoxu to win, you will only lose all your money. A tall and thin disciple said to a short and fat disciple.

The short and fat disciple smiled: "I won't tell you, I bet on both of them, but there are more bets on Guan Dapo, and less on Liu Xiaoxu." In this way, if I win the stool, I will make a lot of money, and if Liu Xiaoxu wins, I can also stop the loss appropriately, right?"

The tall and thin disciple suddenly realized: "Listening to your words, it is like an initiation, admire it below!"

There are not a few such conversations on the scene. Many people bet on Liu Xiaoxu to win, not really thinking that he can win, but just making preparations for both. The two silver bets are also two or three pieces of silver, and they don't feel distressed if they lose. The real big bet is more on the side of managing the stool.

But there are always exceptions.

Huang Yu bet all the silver taels on Liu Xiaoxu alone, which was more than 100 taels of silver. Since he was pushed out to be a scapegoat yesterday, he has completely torn his face with the other party, and there is no way back.

Looking at Huang Yu's move, many people nearby whispered.

"This person is crazy, isn't he? He actually made so many bets on Liu Xiaoxu. ”

"I heard that this person is also a person in the room, because he offended the stool, he can't get along in the room, and this bet is probably a desperate bet. ”

"I'm afraid that his hundred taels of silver will be wasted, but it's a pity. ”

Listening to everyone's whispered discussions, Huang Yu secretly clenched his fists. Since he offended Guan Poop yesterday, the people in the room have been estranged from him, and even his closest friends, who have always been close to him, have avoided him like a snake and scorpion, lest he be involved and angry by Guan Poop.

People are cold, but that's it.

Since he had been squeezed out by the partner, he simply didn't do anything, and bet all the silver taels on Liu Xiaoxu, just to show his attitude to the people in the room.

He Huangyu is guilty of managing stool, and he doesn't regret it!

You are afraid of offending the stool, but I am not afraid!

As for the 100 taels of silver that he stook out, he didn't think about returning it at all......

To put it bluntly, he is not optimistic about Liu Xiaoxu from the bottom of his heart. Especially yesterday, I heard that Liu Xiaoxu planned to use pig water as ingredients......

This news is not a secret, it spread in the gang room last night, and many people at the scene must also know about it.

Sure enough, at this time, someone shouted: "Everyone, I know a big news. Liu Xiaoxu bought ingredients yesterday and wanted to buy pork belly, but because he didn't have enough money, he bought a bunch of pigs and came back. Today's competition, I'm afraid that I will use pig water as food, and I will compete with Guan Poop, who will win, I don't need to say more, right?"

As soon as these words came out, the scene was like a hornet's nest, and it suddenly exploded.

"Is this something that people can eat? Liu Xiaoxu is crazy, right?"

"Cats and dogs don't eat such filthy things as pigs in the water, so he actually wants to make it for people to eat?"

"Damn, Lao Tzu just finished betting on Liu Xiaoxu, you just said this thing, you did it on purpose. ”

Many people cast angry glances at the person who revealed the news, and even scolded them directly.

But others expressed skepticism.

"Liu Xiaoxu won't be so brainless, right? Everyone knows that the pig is smelly and inedible, so Liu Xiaoxu doesn't know?"

"This must be a rumor, this person is afraid that he has bad intentions, and deliberately fooled everyone to bet on Guan Poop, and then he bet on Liu Xiaoxu to make a windfall from it. ”

"Yes, it must be so, don't be fooled!"

Many people look back and despise the person who leaked the information. I have only heard of making a fortune in a muffled voice, and I have never heard of revealing the inside story before the gambling game opens, this person will have such a good heart?

The person who revealed the inside information, seeing that everyone didn't believe it, but was misunderstood, his face turned red with anger: "I also just learned the news, and I kindly reminded me that this matter has already spread in the room, do you believe it or not!"

During the argument, someone suddenly shouted: "Butler is here!"

The discussion on the scene instantly subsided, and everyone's spirits were lifted, and today's competition is finally about to begin!
