As soon as Zuo Boqing finished speaking, everyone in the venue except Li Qi and Zhang Chun'er looked surprised. They were not surprised by the result. Anyway, there were only three of them, either yours or his. They
Rather, he was surprised that Zuo Boqing came to a conclusion so quickly. After all, Mrs. Song's cooking skills were probably no less impressive. If they were asked to make a judgment, they would probably have to hesitate for a while.
The most disappointed among them was Fan Shaobai, who looked at Li Qi in disbelief.
Look at what I'm doing, it's a fact! Li Qi nodded helplessly and said: "Brother Zuo is very right. Madam Zhang is well-deserved for my title as the best cook in the Song Dynasty."
Gao Yanei wondered: "Why is this? I think this roasted eel bun is more delicious!"
Zuo Boqing looked at Li Qi and said, "It's up to you to say this. After all, you are the chef of the restaurant."
Li Qi nodded and explained with a smile: "To be honest, in terms of personal preferences, I also like the roasted eel buns. It can be said that the cooking skills of the two of them are only between the two, but, have you ever thought about it?
But why would Madam Zhang choose this fish jelly as a dish for such an important competition?"
Gao Yanei said angrily: "What's the reason for this? It's not just to make a fool of yourself."
Chai Cong rolled his eyes and said, "Yamen, you are just trying to please others by grandstanding."
"What's the difference?"
"...!"
Li Qi ignored this idiot and glanced at everyone. Seeing that they were all at a loss, he pointed his hand to the sky and said, "Because of it."
When everyone looked up, they were even more confused.
Hong Tianjiu asked curiously: "Does the eldest brother mean that God instructed her to do this? Is this all God's will?"
Li Qi chuckled: "You can also say that, no, it should be said that God helped her win."
Everyone became more and more confused as they listened. Hong Bajin said anxiously: "Li Qi, please stop being so pretentious and tell me the reason quickly."
Zuo Boqing stroked his goat beard and said hehe: "Actually, brother Li has made it very clear. What he means is that it is summer now and the weather is relatively hot. It is the most suitable time to eat fish jelly."
Li Qi nodded and said: "In other words, if this competition is moved to three months later, there may be another result. As a chef, you must first understand what delicious food there is in the four seasons, but this is just
First, you have to understand what is best to eat in each season. Especially for a restaurant chef, you are not only responsible for your own cooking skills, but also for the health of the customers. This is
Although the roasted eel buns are delicious, and the way to eat them is very novel and unique, they are too fiery and must be eaten while they are hot. They are definitely not suitable for eating on this hot summer day. But this fish jelly is different.
It is chilled, and the fish jelly has the effect of relieving the heat. It is perfect to eat it at this time. No matter how delicious the dish is, when it appears at the wrong time, it will be a failure.
.Obviously, at this point, Mrs. Zhang had a better grasp of every detail when preparing. Another point is that this is Xiangguo Temple, and the 'Eighteen Buddha Beads' also look after each other. It is really a piece of ingenuity.
, the number one cook is none other than Mrs. Zhang.”
Zuo Boqing nodded and said with a smile: "That's good. I don't know if you have noticed just now. After we finished eating a roasted eel bun, we didn't show any expressions of unfulfilled interest. However, after eating the fish jelly, we still wanted to eat more.
This is because the hot weather does not allow us to eat a second roasted eel bun, but it adds flavor to this fish jelly and makes it even more delicious."
After the two people's comments, everyone was convinced and had no objections.
Sister-in-law Song nodded when she heard this and said: "I will bear your wise words in mind. I will lose in this competition with all my heart."
Zuo Boqing chuckled and said, "Actually, your cooking skills are already very good and have a unique flavor. In time, you will definitely become one of the most famous chefs in the Song Dynasty."
"General Manager Zuo is so complimentary."
Zhang Chun'er seemed to have already secured the victory, and there was no big fluctuation in this. She smiled slightly and said: "Concession, concession, I just won by luck." As she said this, she suddenly looked at Li Qi and said: "Zhang Chun'er doesn't overestimate his own abilities. He really doesn't think so.
I hope I can ask Master Li for some advice someday."
Zuo Boqing is a cooking fanatic, he chuckled and said: "This is quite attractive. Madam Zhang's cooking skills have improved greatly recently, far better than in the past, and Brother Li's cooking skills are even more proficient. The Golden Knife Chef King is better than me."
It’s really exciting to see who is better among the number one cooks in Song Dynasty.”
What a waste of expectations. This competition is too unfair. If she wins, she can go around saying that I won the Golden Knife Chef King, but what can I get if I win? Should I tell others that I won a chef? There is not enough.
**, I won’t compete. Li Qi cursed secretly, and said with a smile: "Look, I am still young anyway, and I will definitely have a chance in the future."
"So---where's my ham?"
At this time, Liu Yunxi suddenly said, with a slightly anxious expression.
Everyone rolled their eyes and thought to themselves, isn't the disgust we showed just now enough to make you leave in despair?
This silly girl is really persistent. Li Qi chuckled: "In fact, in terms of taste alone, your ham is better than their two dishes. However, you also made the mistake I just mentioned.
Moreover, your dish cannot even guarantee the most basic health of the taster. Yes, I know you will say that it is okay if you eat it yourself, but you also have to know that everyone’s body is different.
It’s okay, but that doesn’t mean it’s okay if we eat it.”
Liu Yunxi said anxiously: "But why are you so sure that their food is safe? If you don't try it, how will you know whether it is edible or not? It's just like the first person in the world to eat sheep.
Just like people who eat pigs.”
Is this--is this girl really stupid, or is she pretending to be stupid? Li Qi was stunned by what she said, and looked at each other with Zuo Boqing, then smiled and said: "What you said makes sense, but the fact is, Yu
The frozen ham has been confirmed by countless people, but your ham is unique in the world. You are the only one who has tried it. As a cook, you can be the pioneer. This spirit is really admirable.
, but you can’t let so many people cook the whole thing with you, and they may not be willing. After all, everyone will put their own health first, which is also a necessary homework for chefs.”
While speaking, he came to the field, raised his hands in the air, and said with a smile: "Speaking of health, there is one thing I have to mention."
What is he doing? Everyone looked at Li Qi blankly, this man always acted out of common sense.
Li Qi said with a smile: "As we all know, we at Zuixianju always put the health of our customers first. Every dish is strictly supervised, because nothing is more valuable than health. They say bitter medicine tastes like this.
Why do so many people still drink this bitter decoction? It’s because the sick hope to recover as soon as possible. The pain of one day’s illness is enough to compensate for the enjoyment of thousands of delicacies. This shows how important health is.
In order to make everyone live healthier and live longer, we at Zuixianju have recently developed a new type of drink, which is perfect and can definitely be called a symbol of health."
I bet he was promoting Zuixianju's new product again.
Everyone understood after hearing the last part, and they all despised it, but at the same time they also admired Li Qi's business talent, which was able to change the topic and seamlessly connect it, which is really amazing.
Gao Yanei hurriedly asked: "Li Qi, what kind of drink do you think it is?"
Good guy, you are indeed good enough. Li Qi exclaimed: "You will know when the time comes, please wait and see."
Sure enough, the audience began to whisper, and their curiosity was completely aroused by Li Qi. After all, Zuixianju brought them too many surprises.
Seeing that the effect was as expected, Li Qi raised a smile on his lips and prepared to retreat.
Liu Yunxi on the side frowned and glanced at Li Qi, and stepped forward to say more. Suddenly, a young man dressed as an entourage squeezed through the wall of people, walked straight to Li Qi, lowered his head and said: "Master Li, fellow shopkeepers, my master has invited you."
Li Qi was slightly startled and said, "Who is your master?"
"Sansi Salt and Iron Envoy."
Everyone's expressions changed when they heard this. They never expected that the other party would dare to come to their door under such circumstances. This shows that the other party was indeed anxious.
"Wow! It turns out that Mr. Huang, then we must go." Li Qi made an extremely exaggerated expression, and then looked at Hong Bajin and said, "Do you think so?"
Everyone was stunned and nodded subconsciously.
Li Qi asked again: "I wonder where Mr. Huang is now?"
When the attendant saw Li Qi agreeing so readily, he felt happy and said hurriedly: "Oh, your Excellency is in the right wing at this time."
This idiot, of course, has to block the door to find someone, so you can continue to enjoy it in the wing. Li Qi nodded and said: "Okay, let's go now---ouch, ouch."
As soon as he said this, Li Qi suddenly screamed continuously, bent down, covered his stomach, and said with an extremely exaggerated expression: "Ouch, my stomach hurts. I don't know if the ham just reacted. Ouch, I can't hold it in."
Now, please go and tell Mr. Huang that I will go back after I go to the hut."
As soon as he finished saying this, he covered his stomach and hurriedly ran outside.
However, Li Qi's unintentional words deeply hurt Liu Yunxi who was standing beside him. His eyes were red, and he rushed over at a very fast speed, blocking in front of Li Qi, and said sadly: "Wait a minute, this ham
I also ate, why am I okay?"
Sister, have you ever had a stomachache? You can't even tell such an exaggerated performance. You really don't know how to maneuver according to the wind. Li Qi was too lazy to talk nonsense with her and shouted: "Maqiao, I leave it to you. I can't bear it."
Living."
As he spoke, he walked around Liu Yunxi.
Liu Yunxi was about to stop her, but unfortunately a man stood in front of her. It was Ma Qiao. He said calmly: "I don't want to fight with women, so you should go back."
This kid is running really fast. He has already run away. What's the use of us trying to support him! Hong Bajin and others also reacted. They all covered their stomachs and their expressions were more exaggerated than the last.
"Ouch, ouch, my stomach hurts too."
"It must be the ham."
"How many huts are there in Xiangguo Temple?"
As soon as these words came out, this group of wealthy businessmen immediately dispersed and disappeared in the vast sea of people.
Even if the entourage wanted to stop him, he would be outnumbered.
Gao Yanei scratched his chin and said curiously: "Strange, why am I fine?"
Hong Tianjiu said disdainfully: "My brother just vomited so cleanly, how could something happen?"
Gao Yanei curled his lips and said, "Aren't you okay too?"
Hong Tian raised his head and said proudly: "That can only mean that I am in good health, just like Liu - well, where is she?" As he was talking, he suddenly saw that Liu Yunxi, who was still here, had disappeared.
He hurried forward to find Ma Qiao and asked, "Ma Qiao, where is Madam Liu just now?"
Ma Qiao seemed to be thinking about something. He was slightly startled and said, "Already gone."
Hong Tianjiu ouched and said with great annoyance: "Oops, I forgot to ask her where she lives now. I have to go hunting with her." (To be continued.)
