After listening to Nakiri Senzaemon's words, Xia Tian secretly despised the faces of these capitalists. As if thinking of something, he suddenly asked:
"That's not right! Old man, as the commander-in-chief of Totsuki, who else has an advantage over you? There are so many talents under your command, you don't have to look for me, right? Where is Mr. Dojima?"
"Well, it does seem like this, but the new generation of "Jade" has not yet matured. It would be too dangerous for them to go. As for Dojima, he refused."
Xia Tian was surprised by Nakiri Senzaemon's answer. Dojima Gin actually rejected Nakiri Senzaemon. Why, Xia Tian did not hide it and directly expressed the questions in his heart.
But Nakiri Senzaemon fell silent. After a while, he continued:
"Actually, not everyone on the Totsuki board of directors agrees with the food city plan in the central area of Tokyo. The opposition believes that it will seriously affect the operation of Totsuki Resort, and Dojima is a member of the opposition."
At this point, everything was understood, and Xia Tian couldn't help but frown, but then he shook his head and threw away the random thoughts in his mind. It didn't care about him, so why did he think so much.
"Then, Mr. Xia Tian, can you agree to my request this time?"
After Nakiri Senzaemon finished speaking sincerely, he listened carefully to what was happening on the other side of the phone. However, as the sound of long breathing came from the phone, Nakiri Senzaemon's heart began to rise.
For a long time, there was a layer of sweat on Nakiri Senzaemon's forehead, and then finally a somewhat excited voice came from over there.
"Okay, I promised, I will participate in the competition on time."
"Huh~"
Nakiri Senzaemon breathed a heavy sigh of relief, with a look of joy on his face. After chatting with Xia Tian for a few more words, he hung up the phone and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Nakiri Senzaemon
Men closed his eyes and began to think.
Recalling that Xia Tian, who was originally unwilling, immediately became interested after hearing about the prize money of the competition. Thinking of Nakiri Senzaemon, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and he couldn't help but nodded.
"If there is a need, that's good, that's good..."
On the other side, Xia Tian also looked happy, but he was not doing it for the so-called high bonus, but the task panel in front of him finally refreshed the task:
"Ding, the host triggered the mission, I am the Pastry King: In the "... Pastry King Cooking Competition, I defeated the others, won the first place, and became the Pastry King!"
Successful mission: rewarded cooking skills: Seven-Star Breaking Army Instant Cut; Recipe: Big Magic Panda Mapo Tofu..."
This is the reason why Xia Tian really agreed to Nakiri Senzaemon, but it would be even better if he could get the 100 million neon yuan by the way. Xia Tian couldn't help but gleam in his eyes when he thought of the ultimate prize, which made people really confused.
Understand whether he is happy because of the task or the bonus.
…
In the evening, everyone in Ji Xing Lao gathered in the restaurant to have dinner. Seeing a group of people as if they were pouring wax, they looked very worried. Xia Tian knocked on the plate helplessly, and the clear and loud sound suddenly woke everyone up.
He looked around in shock, as if he had just woken up from a dream.
"Hey, hey, eat well. Look, you have been eating for so long. Which one of you has really tasted the food... I'm sorry, Aoki Sato, I'm not talking about you."
Xia Tian beckoned the "bad duo" to continue eating, then pointed at the dishes that others had left intact, and continued:
"No matter what, you must take good care of your health first, otherwise you may not be able to hold on before school starts. Also, Yukihira, please wake up. What time did you go to bed yesterday?"
Looking at Yukihira Soma, who was so drowsy that his head almost dropped to the plate, Xia Tian quickly woke him up. But the latter just opened his eyes and looked at everyone with a blank expression.
Xia Tian covered her face speechlessly, while the others seemed to be amused by Xingping Soma's cute look, and couldn't help laughing.
Yise Hui looked at everyone with a smile and said softly:
"Xia Tian is right. The art of cooking is not something that can be achieved overnight. Cooks must first protect their own bodies, so that they can be in the best condition to show the best side of the food to the diners."
Everyone nodded and lowered their heads to eat their dinner. However, Xia Tian looked at Yukihira Soma who still had a confused look on his face and didn't think he could listen.
Looking at the people who were dining, Xia Tian asked again:
"By the way, don't you plan to go back during the summer vacation? Or do you plan to stay in Jixing Lao all the time?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Yoshino Yuki's nose bursting with tears, and she said pitifully:
"I also want to go back and enjoy my rare vacation, but when I think about the mountain of "autumn selection" weighing on me, I lose all my mood. Oh my vacation, my precious summer vacation...
…”
Xia Tian couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and simply ignored the Yoshino Yuki who was showing off his treasures and selling miserably, and jumped directly over to look at others.
"I've already called my family, and I plan to spend this summer vacation at Jixingliao developing new dishes."
"Me too, the 'Autumn Selection' is a very important event among first-year students. I want to get a good ranking."
"..."
Everyone else was basically the same. They basically planned to stay in Ji Xing Lao and never go back. Only Tadokoroe said in a low voice:
"Everyone, I plan to go back to my hometown to seek some inspiration."
"Oh, Xiaohui, do you want to go back? That's great. Remember to bring me a souvenir."
Yukihira Soma heard it clearly at this time, causing everyone to roll their eyes. At this time, Sakaki Ryoko suddenly asked about Xia Tian.
"Where's Xia Tian-kun, do you still plan to stay in Jixing Lao?"
As soon as Ryoko Sakaki finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but think of Xia Tian's hobby of "cultivating immortals", and they all felt that Xia Tian might not be seen again all day long.
"Me." Xia Tian raised his head, thought for a while and said: "I should be at Ji Xing Lao this July..."
Sure enough, everyone thought in secret, but the next words surprised everyone.
"In August, I am going to the central area of Tokyo and may stay for a few days."
"You need to get out!"
Everyone looked at Xia Tian in surprise. Xing Ping Soma couldn't help but asked: "Why are you going to Tokyo?"
"Hey, this is it."
Xia Tian took out a pamphlet from his pocket and threw it on the table. Yoshino Yuki picked it up and looked at it. His eyes immediately widened and he screamed:
"You want to go here, wow~ No, I have to go too, it's so unfair."
Everyone quickly took a look and saw that it was a brochure. But when they saw the content clearly, they couldn't help but scream.
"...The Pastry King Cooking Competition is held..."
"The opening ceremony of Neon's largest food city..."
“…the hottest celebration of the year!!”
…
At this moment, everyone was looking at Xia Tian, their eyes full of envy, jealousy, and hatred, and Xingping Soma even spoke out what everyone was thinking.
"You definitely did it on purpose..."
But the only answer he received was Xia Tian's innocent shrug...
