How long has it been since we parted, and I am sick? Are you cursing me?

Despite his heart complaining, Xiao Jing still bowed with a smile: "It turned out to be Mr. Han. I thought your boss would come, but I still didn't have the chance to meet him. Alas, why are you always missing out?"

Mr. Han bowed and said, "If you have a business, you need your boss to go there yourself, so he went to the southwest again. Before leaving, he told Han that he would not see Mr. Xiao this time, which is a pity. If you have the chance in the future, you must visit the mansion in person."

Well, this is the style that Mr. Han should have.

At the auction just now, he also raised the sign, and he bought a 200 taels position on behalf of his boss. Although they bought this position to display advertisements, on the other hand, it may also mean to use this to compensate and apologize to Xiao Jing.

After chatting for a few casual words, Mr. Han said goodbye and walked away. Dong Xiaoya walked to Xiao Jing and said, "Young master, the audience has finished trying it. Can you start the selection?"

Xiao Jing pondered, "Wait a minute. The guests were talking while eating, and the chat was getting excited. Don't interrupt it rashly."

As he was speaking, another person smiled and said, "I still say that Mr. Xiao has lofty ambitions and has no intention of having a long love for his children. It turns out that there are beautiful women around him. In this Ruidu City, I don't know how many people are waiting to talk to the young master's marriage, and I don't know how many daughters admire Mr.'s name; it seems that everyone is troubled!"

Xiao Jing looked back and said happily: "Mr. Zhong, Mr. Shao, Mr. Jian, Mr. Jian. The three of them are here so quickly!"

"Young Master Xiao invites you, how dare you not come?" Shao Yuanwai snorted: "Now that you have hard wings and have a great face. You dare to let us get some old bones to come to you. You are really disrespectful!"

Xiao Jing ran over in two steps and smiled and said, "Look at what you said! Shao Ning is my brother, and you are my uncle, how dare I be disrespectful? It is not easy to gather you three, and you have seen it. I am always pestered by others, so I can only find someone to find you. Sorry, I am really sorry!"

"You will make you embarrassed Young Master Xiao with your beard and stare at me!" Jian said with a helping voice: "If it weren't for him, would your Ning'er do things so steadily? Anyway, the more Jian looks at Young Master Xiao, the more he likes him! Speaking of which, even my daughter knows his name and loves to read the mirror."

Xiao Jing was shocked and was about to say something. However, before he could change the subject, Jianwai smiled ambiguously and said, "If no one was going to do it, Jian really wanted to marry my daughter to Mr. Xiao. So what if there is a woman around him? Who dares to steal Jian's first! Being his father-in-law, are you still afraid that there will be no good advertising space? Hehe!"

Mr. Shao smiled and said, "If your daughter is worthy of my young talent in Darui Dynasty. We can't afford to be a high-ranking official family. Xiao Jing, a promising young man, is also a good place to entrust his daughter's family to life. Fortunately, Ning'er has a cool appearance and a temper that looks like her mother. If her daughter is like you with her father... Hehe, I'm afraid she won't dare to ask for it."

"Why, are you jealous of my Jian family?" Jianwai raised his eyebrows and said, "I gave birth to my daughter. If you have the ability, you give birth to a mother? So what if you don't have the ability to marry him, could you give birth to such a beautiful daughter? What about the 'Xia Family'? What about the 'Shuangbibi' is just a swearing thing, my Ning'er is worse than them? Haha, Jian knows, you are sarcastic because you don't have a daughter and cannot recruit Mr. Xiao as your son-in-law, right?"

These three people who are disrespectful to the old, why are they so unpredictable together?

After finally finding a gap, Xiao Jing hurriedly said, "Of course, I have to discuss important matters, so I took the liberty to call the three of you here!"

If they continue to chat, the consequences will be unimaginable. I guess the next thing to discuss is the question of who is bigger and smaller than Miss Jian and Dong Xiaoya.

While the three of them were pulled to their side, Xiao Jing rang the railway while the hot: "To be off-topic, Xiao hasn't thought about getting married yet. The girl just now was not Xiao's person. Her name was Dong Xiaoya, and she was the editor of the Mirror. Xiaoya has come to meet several seniors... Huh?"

He turned his head and called, but where was Dong Xiaoya's figure there?

Xiaoya is thin-skinned. After someone said this, she must have been so embarrassed that she ran away with her face covering her face!

Xiao Jing coughed a little embarrassedly and said, "Xiao wants to make a plan. Whether it is achieved or not, it still needs a few people to help you understand. If everyone thinks it is feasible, Xiao plans to launch this plan that will benefit the present and the future in the next time or next advertising and investment promotion meeting..."

I don’t know how long it took, but the sound of cups and plates on the open space became much lower.

Most of the guests were already full of food and food. These big-name merchants were basically busy, but most of them stayed with interest, wanting to see which dish will win and how the champion was selected. Even if they are not practitioners in the catering industry, they are willing to join in the fun. After all, Xiao Jing likes to make trouble. Maybe one day he will start another event when he is happy, and he will have his own business.

Xiao Jing stood among the crowd with a smile and shouted: "You have been waiting for a long time! The enthusiastic readers have tried all our dishes and voted! Now, it is the time to reveal the champion!

After saying that, eight townsmen came up one after another, each of them holding a box. Judging from the way they walked, some people had a heavy breath and strong arms, which should be because the things they were holding were heavy. Some people looked relaxed and their steps were light. It was probably that the box they were holding was not worth much.

Then, eight people brought eight small pots. Everyone was talking in a low voice, and no one knew what they were selling in this gourd.

Xiao Jing wanted this effect. He deliberately paced a few steps and gave people time to talk. After the voices gradually became smaller, he said: "Today, there were a total of 186 enthusiastic readers who came to the scene to try it. Each of them chose a delicacy they loved the most. Let's see what they chose?"

In Xiao Jing's opinion, the number of people is really small. Since it is a tasting party, at least 500 people must have momentum!

However, it is difficult to manage too many people, and the expense of entertaining 500 people to taste dishes is not a small amount. Therefore, he had to give up this idea.

As soon as Xiao Jing waved his hand, eight strong men picked up the box. They shouted together, then turned the box upside down, and stones, both small and small, fell from the box into the basin.

What is this for?

There are more and less stones in each box. If there are fewer stones, the stones have not yet covered the bottom of the basin; if there are more stones, half a basin is piled up.

Xiao Jing said loudly: "The eight boxes from left to right are the ballot boxes for these eight kinds of delicacies. When voting, each box had a plate with a small mouthful of delicious dishes that readers had tried. The staff sent each person a stone of similar size and color. If you like, you will throw the stone into the box representing which one. Now, as long as we count the stones, we will know who will become the champion of the first episode of the Mirror Food Tasting Club!"

This is interesting!

The guests rushed over. The hotel owners rushed the fastest and had good eyes. They were already planning which stones were more in their own basins or in other people's basins.

"Okay, let's count!" Xiao Jing squatted down seriously and counted: "There are one, two, and three in basin No. 1..."

The counting process was a bit boring, but Xiao Jing enjoyed it very much. Every time he finished counting a basin, he would look up his head to see the expressions of the onlookers: some were depressed, some were nervous, some were excited, and some were couldn't help laughing...

This is what the tasting should look like!

At first, only Xiao Jing could hear the voice alone. But later, the sound of counting became louder and louder. In addition to Xiao Jing, the younger people around him also counted attentively. Slowly, more people joined in, and even heard the sound of a childish voice. Finally, the originally noisy counting sound unified into a grand sound at a certain moment:

“Thirty-five, thirty-six, thirty-seven…thirty-eight!”

After counting the seventh basin, Xiao Jing looked at the eighth basin with obviously not many stones, and regretfully shook his head at the fifth basin with thirty-one numbers, before saying, "The winner of the tasting party today is: Zhangjia Restaurant in Ruidu City, the representative dish is fried pork!

What?

Everyone thought that the winner would definitely be among the four restaurants, but unexpectedly, the one who laughed the last was an unknown small restaurant!

"Zhangjia Restaurant? I haven't heard of it!" There was more than one gorgeous young man in the onlookers and frowned and said, "I claim to have eaten all over Ruidu City, but I don't have any impression of it. Is the dishes really delicious? I can't say that I have to try it myself..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a hand was pressed on his shoulder. The person who came laughed and said, "Young Master Yu's idea is very wonderful. I'll go with you!"

Manager Lin wiped his sweat and muttered in a low voice: "I thought the reader selection was a scene, and Mr. Xiao would definitely give the restaurant a convenience, but I didn't expect...ah, this is fine. Anyway, the other companies didn't win. As long as they can be fair and reasonable, it's fine..."

As the organizer of the event, Xiao Jing certainly would not tamper with voting. So, isn’t he smashing his own brand?

For him, this is the best result. The meaning of the existence of the food version is to help foodies of this era discover good dishes that they don’t know yet; often the more inconspicuous small restaurants on the street, the more they can make flavor dishes that are completely different from big taverns.

"Is someone here at the Zhang family restaurant? Let's talk about it! Is there anyone here?"

Xiao Jing shouted several times, but no one responded. Before the investment promotion meeting, the newspaper had already contacted them and said that it was necessary to send someone to come, even if it was waiting next to you. Who knew...

Maybe the shop is too busy to leave, or maybe the shop that is full of wealthy businessmen and tycoons, so they go back first when they see that they are all rich and powerful businessmen.

No one could speak, so Xiao Jing had to smooth things over and said: "Everyone has different tastes, but there are still so many people who voted for the fried pork from the Zhang family restaurant, which shows that his family's food is indeed outstanding! Merchants who did not win the champion this time please continue to work hard and take out the best dishes to attack the game next time when they come to the Mirror Food Edition! Then, Xiao announced: Today's advertising and investment promotion meeting will end here!"

He shouted the end, and the meeting was indeed over, but it was not until half an hour later that he was free. When the last businessman who was still unsatisfied walked away, Xiao Jing, who had a tired face, suddenly grabbed Shao Ning's arm as if he had thought of something, and asked slightly anxiously: "What day is today?"
