The staff in front of Jiang Xiaofan was looking at him with disdain.
On the chopping board were piles of live chickens, live fish, live rabbits, and a bunch of red and green vegetables.
"Should we mix four ingredients into a stew at this time?" the staff member thought to himself as he looked at the living things on the table.
Although he doesn't know much about cooking, he also knows that if the ingredients are put together randomly, the flavors will cancel each other out.
I don’t know why Lei Ba is worried. With this level, he definitely won’t be in the top 30. There is absolutely no need for him to make small moves.
However, thinking of the money promised by Lei Bao, he quietly took out his mobile phone and sent a message: "There are chickens, fish, rabbits and vegetables, and they seem to be stewed into soup. I think he will definitely not be among the top 100."
When Lei Bao outside the venue received the news, a sneer appeared on his lips. However, just to be on the safe side, he waved to someone and called over: "Go get some chicken, fish, rabbit and vegetables, and make a pot of stew."
The man nodded and hurried away from the side door.
Lei Bao looked at the security guard in front of him, smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, just pretend you didn't see this. My brother is the chef of the palace restaurant. I will give you a 50% discount when you go to eat in the future, and I will give you another
Two thousand dollars."
The security guard nodded and bowed with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Leibao."
At the competition site, the staff lost interest in Jiang Xiaofan after sending the message.
He glanced around and saw a female chef chopping vegetables not far away. The scenery on her chest trembled with her movements, and he immediately looked at it attentively.
Jiang Xiaofan had no idea about all this. He stared at the living things on the chopping board with some worry.
When he was tasting dishes for the judges in the preliminaries, he found that except for Wei Xuan, the other judges had varying degrees of sub-health.
Jiang Xiaofan decided to make medicated meals according to the symptoms. But instead of just one dish, he made four medicated meals for the bodies of the four judges.
But Jiang Xiaofan is not sure whether on-site slaughter is appropriate.
Looking around, Jiang Xiaofan found that except for a few contestants who brought ingredients, the others were provided by the event, let alone brought live animals to be slaughtered on site.
At this moment, a drone passed by Jiang Xiaofan. The drone didn't seem to intend to stop at first, but when the camera passed over the chopping board, it suddenly turned around and came back.
"The one with the live animals in the preliminaries?"
The director pointed the drone camera at the chopping board and took a breath of air: "Chicken, fish and hare... can the finals be played like this?"
The next moment, the director's face showed excitement: "Point the camera at him. He seems to be a county player. I guess someone will be interested in these things."
Under the control of the director, the drone hovered steadily above Jiang Xiaofan, and the camera showed him on the big screen in the square.
"Why is this man so dazed? Everyone else is cooking, why is he not moving?"
"Hey, it looks familiar. I remember he brought ingredients during the preliminaries."
"There is a restaurant above his tent, have you heard of it?"
"I don't know. I've been to all the famous restaurants in Jinyang City, but I've never heard of this one..."
"..."
When the audience saw Jiang Xiaofan, they immediately started chattering.
"I've never even heard of Shiwei Xian Restaurant, you're a bunch of rubes!" Huang Mao scolded him unconvinced.
"Keep your mouth clean, who is the bastard?" someone said tit for tat.
"That's you! You don't even know how to eat delicious food in Tangtang Restaurant, so why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf!" Huang Mao sneered unceremoniously.
The man's face turned the color of pig liver with anger, and the others stood with their arms folded and watched the fun.
"Hmph, hum, chirp -" a sharp scream sounded.
Jiang Xiaofan subconsciously followed the sound and saw a little suckling pig that had just turned one month old, stabbed in the throat by a fat chef. There was a barbecue grill on the chopping board, apparently for roasting the suckling pig.
The chefs around him glanced at the man and then went about their business cooking. Apparently they were used to this kind of scene.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiaofan felt relieved and started to deal with the living things on the table. In less than five minutes, he slaughtered and washed the hares, pheasants and hares, and then officially started making medicinal meals.
In order to prevent the recipe from being recorded, Jiang Xiaofan prepared medicinal diet seasoning packets in advance.
At this time, the drone seemed to have no gimmick and quickly flew to other places.
Soon, another tent appeared on the big screen, with the four characters "Palace Restaurant" written on it.
Under the tent is a man in his thirties. The lines on his face are very sharp. At first glance, he looks like an elite man.
He was cutting up the tuna with a knife. As he moved, the tuna, which was more than half a meter long, was quickly decomposed.
"Wow, he's so handsome. This male chef is so manly."
"It is said that he is a Michelin three-star chef and was hired with a high salary."
"What he cut was tuna. Judging from the packaging, it looked like it was shipped by air."
"The Palace Restaurant is really generous. It seems that it will compete for the championship this time."
"I wonder what Chef Xia of Guiyuan Villa will cook..."
"..."
When the onlookers saw Lei Yan, they immediately started talking excitedly.
After hearing everyone's reaction, the staff immediately reported it to the broadcast room, and the director immediately sent out a drone to find Guiyuan Villa.
Under the tent of Guiyuan Villa, a girl in her mid-twenties appeared on the big screen.
She was working on a piece of white and tender tofu, and bone soup was boiling in an iron pot on the stove.
If Jiang Xiaofan looked up at this moment, he would find that this girl was Xia Xi.
Soon the big screen was cut in half, and Xia Xi and Lei Yan appeared on the left and right at the same time.
"Wow, Chef Xia is out. She looks so young and beautiful."
"Tofu and bone soup? They are all ordinary ingredients. I don't know what she is going to cook."
"It's probably on the imperial cuisine menu. I'm really looking forward to the taste of this dish..."
"I think Chef Xia should still be the champion..."
"I think Chef Lei, he is a three-star Michelin chef."
"I'm more optimistic about Chef Xia's imperial dishes..."
"..."
Seeing Xia Xi's energetic appearance, the audience immediately became excited.
Some people were looking forward to Xia Xi's imperial meal, and some were looking forward to Lei Yan's tuna. For a while, people were divided into two groups, and they were all discussing who could win the championship.
At this time, Jiang Xiaofan had stewed the meat and medicinal food. The remaining vegetables were processed and put into the pot, and the medicinal food packets were added and started to simmer over low heat.
He wiped his hands and raised his head. He glanced at the large screen in the square inadvertently and was stunned when he saw Xia Xi on it.
"She is actually the chef of Guiyuan Villa?" Jiang Xiaofan was surprised. He thought that the chef of Guiyuan Villa was an old man, otherwise he would not have asked for leave before the competition. Unexpectedly, it was Xia Xi whom he met on the night market street.
He suddenly understood. He went to Guiyuan Villa for dinner the night before yesterday. Manager He said that the chef was not at the Villa...because Xia Xi was eating skewers in the food court at that time.
Who would have thought that the chef of Guiyuan Villa would actually like to eat grilled fish and tofu from the stall?
