Food rights and wine beauty: turn a god to farm

Chapter 87 The Chef's Conjecture
On the second day of the Yuanshi Festival, the Yuanshi Competition officially started.

According to the previous rules, the Yuanshi Competition was held for three days.

On the first day, all participating merchants will compete for points, and the top ten will be awarded honorary pennants.

On the second day, the ten promoted merchants competed for skills, and only the top three were left in the end to get the prizes prepared by the government.

The third day is the competition of the top three to determine the real ranking and win the right to host the next year. In addition, No.1 will also get the plaque of Liuyun No. [-] Chef.

But now with the cooking competition, the competition needs to be changed slightly.

The Yuanshi competition remains unchanged, but there will be another individual arena.

Fortunately, although Liuyun Town is prosperous, the surrounding villages have not been mobilized. In addition, there are few chefs, so there are not many chefs who come to participate.

But even so, the competition will take about three days, so the ring will last for six days.

In the first three days of Yuanshi Contest, the strategy was changed, and Li Guizhi was not allowed to participate, but Du Lishi was allowed to take the burden.

Du Li's hands are relatively dexterous, and he has learned a lot of things taught by An Ning. The biggest shortcoming is that he doesn't know how to adapt, and he doesn't have Li Guizhi's understanding.

But it was enough to deal with this competition. Anyway, she didn't want Yiwei Pavilion to win the first place this time, especially when the cooking competition was being held together.

"An Ning, I, I'm a little nervous." Standing behind the booth, looking at the growing crowd and the surrounding competitors, Du Lishi kept wiping his bib with his hands nervously.

Even though An Ning said that as long as she played normally, she would definitely be in the top three, she still had no idea.

"Don't be nervous, this time it's just a test of the water, it doesn't matter what the result is." An Ning squatted on one side fanning the wind, comforting her softly.

If we say which one attracts the most attention today, it is nothing more than Yiwei Pavilion.

It's not because of the popularity of Yiwei Pavilion, but because of the chef's revelation.

The chef of Yiwei Pavilion has always been a mystery, but in today's competition, as long as he wants to win, then this chef will definitely come forward.

It's just that many people watched and waited for a long time, looking at the few people in the stall at Yiwei Pavilion, none of them looked like chefs.

Everyone was still muttering in their hearts, as expected of a chef, the airs are big enough, and they haven't come out yet.

After half a stick of incense, in the anticipation of everyone, the county magistrate Shi Shiran stepped onto the ring, delivered a sincere speech, and announced the start of the competition.

The yamen servants immediately lit the incense in the cauldron, and all the participating booths took out a unified wooden sign and hung it up to indicate the start.

The first game is free to play, everything depends on the evaluation of the people.

People lined up in the square, just waiting for the stalls to be closed before starting to try the food, all of them were in high spirits, each staring at the merchants they liked.

Among them, Tianfu is undoubtedly the most anticipated by ordinary people.

It should be said that Yiwei Pavilion is the most popular recently, but Yiwei Pavilion is usually relatively popular, and some ordinary people can still buy low-end pastries to taste.

But Tianfu is different. Tianfu takes a completely high-end luxury route. Going in and walking around costs hundreds of taels a minute. It is absolutely impossible for ordinary families to go in, let alone taste it.

So many people would not let go of such an opportunity to taste sky-high prices for free.

Rongfu Pavilion is also taking the high-end route. Although it has been robbed of the limelight by Yiwei Pavilion recently, it is the oldest restaurant in Liuyun Town, and it has been No. 1 in the Yuanshi Competition for many years, and its reputation is strong.

Yiwei Pavilion is famous recently, but it is not all because of the quality of pastries, but also related to the operation methods and the curiosity-seeking psychology of the public.

What An Ning wants is not one-time consumption customers, but loyal repeat customers and old customers, and these need to be accumulated a little bit and cultivated slowly over time.

Therefore, in this competition, the results that Yiwei Pavilion needs to achieve are neither high nor low, and No.3 is just right. Follow those two to gain a sense of presence, which can be regarded as another bundle through them.

After all, the fame of these two families is not only in Liuyun Town, but almost all over the place, especially Tianfu, whose footprints have traveled as far as the other two continents.

If it weren't for the fact that mortals from the Central Continent couldn't move in at will, I'm afraid there would be Tianfu inside.

As for the competition area, pairs of eyes stared at Yiwei Pavilion after the start, with surprise, puzzlement, suspicion, etc. in their eyes.

Because the chef of Yiwei Pavilion at the moment is obviously Du Lishi who is dressed as a village woman in a coarse cloth jacket.

And because Yiwei Pavilion has received a lot of attention, Du Li's identity is not a mystery, not to mention that she often goes shopping on the street and knows many people well.

Most people have disbelief in their eyes, and they can't believe that the mysterious chef in Yiwei Pavilion is this village woman who was born in the countryside.

"Impossible." In the booth of Rongfu Building, the middle-aged man with a goatee immediately denied after being astonished, "I have checked the details of the Du family. Before they appeared, they were just ordinary people living on a few acres of Susukida in the village."

"I don't believe it either. Could it be that Yiwei Pavilion just randomly found someone to replace it in order to cover up the identity of the chef?"

"Wouldn't they have to give up the game automatically?"

"It's also possible that the Yuanshi Competition will be followed by the Cooking Competition. Maybe the opponent's chef doesn't want to expose his strength too early."

"But you can get someone out at will, so you're not afraid of smashing the signboard?"

One of the apprentices said cautiously, "Her movements seem to be quite the same. Could it be that the chef taught her..."

"Impossible." Before he finished speaking, the chef of Rongfulou immediately retorted in a deep voice.

Everyone also fell silent, and after thinking about it, they understood why the other party was so determined.

Chefs regard culinary skills more than their lives, and many inheritances are extremely demanding, and even direct disciples sometimes find it difficult to learn a few points.

According to the treasures produced by Yiwei Pavilion, even if the chef is not a special chef, he should be a high-quality chef. He will never pass on his cooking skills to others easily. He is still such an ordinary village woman at a very young age.

"Anyway, we'll find out later."

Discussions like this also resounded in all the participating booths, and there were buzzing discussions among the common people.

Among them, some people from Baiguo Village who came to join in the fun denied it most firmly.

They have known the Du family for decades, and they don't know how much the Du family has, especially the Du Li family, if they really have that ability, why should they condescend to become mud legs.

"Father, do you think Yiwei Pavilion is going to give up this competition?" Du Fanghua couldn't help asking his father beside him in a low voice.

"The day after tomorrow is the culinary competition. It is estimated that the chef of Yiwei Pavilion does not want to expose his strength prematurely. For him, the Yuanshi competition, which is like a joke, is naturally inferior to the culinary competition that can go to the Central Continent." Du Qin snorted coldly , Looking at the familiar people in the Yiwei Pavilion booth, he couldn't help showing sarcasm, gloating to see them make a fool of themselves.

Obviously, in his guess, these people were thrown out as cannon fodder because they couldn't hold back the chef.
