Chapter 172 No.1
I would have said it.
I saw that the time was exactly 2 o'clock, and there was no place to eat when I went out.
Xu Yang suggested: "I would like to watch other players compete for a while. We will go out for dinner at 5 o'clock, at least to understand everyone's results."
"Okay, there is no place to go out now, why not just watch the game, 5 o'clock is about the right time, in case there is a master with a higher score, I have a rough ranking in mind."
Seeing that both of them wanted to stay and watch the game, Gao Yi naturally had no objection.
"Since you all said to watch the game, then stay and watch. In case there is a master who does a good job, I can still learn from it."
"Let's go."
I just found a place where I could watch the game, and I kept seeing 5 o'clock.
Xu Yang said again: "Let's eat."
The two replied at the same time: "Okay."
Finally found a hot pot restaurant.
The main reason is that several of us have not had hot pot for a long time, and it is the end of November and the weather is relatively cold, so eating hot pot is the best choice.
It is faster to eat other cold ones, which will definitely affect the taste.
Randomly chose a hot pot restaurant around the culinary association, and the three of them walked in.
Then I ordered a medium-spicy red pot and started to order.
The three of us all like spicy food, so we chose medium spicy.
As for heavy spicy, the three of them dare not choose extra spicy. You must know that this spicy is really spicy, unless you can eat spicy, otherwise you will not choose it.
For tourists from other places, they usually choose slightly spicy, slightly spicy or mandarin duck pot.
Otherwise, it will be easy to be overwhelmed.
After all, spicy is pain, not taste, and it is not so easy to relieve.
"Look at what to eat."
Wang Dongjie took a look at the menu and said, "I'll just order one serving of Snowflake Beef, two servings of hairy belly and one serving of bean curd. Take a look."
After ordering the dishes he wanted, he handed the menu to Gao Yi.
This is a hot pot restaurant in an alley, not a big chain hot pot restaurant, so it uses paper ordering instead of online ordering.
Gao Yi took a look, ordered three meat and two vegetables, and finally the menu came to Xu Yang.
Xu Yang counted, and there were nine dishes in total.
I looked at the menu again, and finally ordered a duck blood, a ham sausage and a snack brown sugar glutinous rice cake, and then called the waiter.
"Here's the menu. Bring another piece of beer here. It's fine at room temperature."
In this weather, you can actually drink cold drinks.
It's just hot pot. If you drink cold beer, you will probably collapse.
"OK, just a second."
After the waiter left, Xu Yang said again: "Two, four bottles of beer per person is no problem."
"Of course it's no problem. Thinking about us before, at least one beer is a meal at any time."
Gao Yi also nodded and said, "No problem, anyway, the three of us didn't drive here, it's just four bottles of beer, it's a small matter."
"That's fine. Speaking of which, we haven't had dinner together for several months, so today is a good opportunity."
"it is good."
We started eating at 5:7 and continued to eat until [-]:[-], when the three of us walked out slowly.
"By the way, where do you live now?"
Wang Dongjie touched his head and said, "Now I live in the company's dormitory and haven't moved out yet. If you have a good one, you can introduce it to us."
Xu Yang thought for a while and said: "If there is no accident, this small restaurant should not be open for a very long time. It may be at most tomorrow's March or April, and there is a high probability that it will be transferred at that time, so I live near me now. It’s not very convenient, I’ll send you an address tomorrow, and you can rent a house near here.”
Now the hotel contract here is for three years, and the rent contract is for one year.
I thought I would stay here for a long time, but I have cooperated with another company, so I may not stay here for too long.
Of course, this is not giving up and continuing to rent.
When I went to a new restaurant, there were no dishes to prepare every day.
Because it is an appointment in advance, so one or two days in advance to know the situation of the next day.
When the new restaurant is not busy, you can come here and continue to open.
So there's no rush.
After slowly shifting the focus to the new hotel, we will slowly close this place.
It happens to be around August and September tomorrow, when the new restaurant has already had a very good start.
In addition, the rent here is just due.
They are living here now, and they don't need too many people to help them in their hotel.
When the time comes, Xu Yanghe will first arrange Gao Yi in one of Wang Sheng's restaurants, and Wang Dongjie will continue to participate in the competition first.
You can go to the same hotel later, so it's really okay to stay here.
And because I introduced it by myself, I believe that when I arrive at the new hotel, I believe that I will be paid more attention to it than I was at the Jincheng Hotel before.
"Xu Yang, then we are renting a three-unit apartment or a second-unit apartment."
"Let's rent a two-unit apartment first. It is suitable to rent until November tomorrow. Anyway, I will be here in August and September. If you want to live together by then, you can look for it again."
"Okay, then you can send me the address. When Gao Yi and I don't have a match in the past two days, we will go and watch it. We will confirm it as soon as possible and then move out."
"It's up to you to arrange it yourself."
After dinner, the two of them went back to the dormitory, while Xu Yang went back to his rented place.
What he rented was a set. Although there was a sofa to sleep on, it was not particularly convenient for the two of them, so it was better to separate them.
Anyway, we will meet again in a few days.
Back home, Xu Yang finally had time to check his reputation.
At 12 o'clock last night, he checked the reputation value once. At that time, it was more than 800 points. As of 9 o'clock in the evening, it can be regarded as one day.
I usually return home at this time and check my reputation for the day.
After a day of competition today, Xu Yang believed that he must have gained enough reputation points.
However, because it was the first round of the competition in the city, there were not many people watching it, and most likely there would not be many people watching it.
Although the score is very high, the few people paying attention means that it is impossible to get a lot.
So Xu Yang guessed that he could get about [-] reputation points, which is about the same as opening a restaurant in two or three days.
At most, the prestige value will not exceed [-]. It is estimated that when the provincial competition comes, more people will pay attention. If you get a high score at that time, you will definitely get more prestige points.
And after this incident, many people remembered his name Xu Yang.
The next time we participate in the competition, it is estimated that more people will come to see it.
After all, the provincial competition is held in Jincheng City, so there will still be people coming.
Time to open up the system and take a look.
Open the system and look, the number is fixed at [-] points
Seeing this number, Xu Yang was stunned for a moment. Based on the calculation of the reputation value of 1000, it would be more than [-] points at most. Unexpectedly, it was [-] points more than expected.
Could it be that today it reached [-] points in one day.
To be honest, it exceeded Xu Yang's expectations.
But this is definitely good news, and don't forget that it may also bring about subsequent reputation growth.
From this point of view, by the time the provincial competition starts, his prestige value is estimated to be around 15.
It's been open for business these days.
After thinking about it, Xu Yang sent out a notice about the opening time in the next few days, and announced it to them first, so that it would be better to make a decision at that time.
When I learned that it was going to open tomorrow, someone was very excited and said that I would come to taste it.
Xu Yang naturally welcomed this.
On the second day, the business was really booming, and at night, the prestige value increased by [-] points.
In addition to the reputation points from the normal opening of business, there is also a part of the reputation points that should be from the follow-up to yesterday's game.
The goal of 15 is getting closer and closer.
The next few days will be open for business as usual, and the prestige value will be around [-] or [-] every day.
Until December 12rd, around 3 am, Xu Yang received a call.
"Hi, hello, is this Master Xu Yang Xu?"
Hearing the voice from the other end of the phone, Xu Yang guessed that the result of the game had come out.
"Yes, I am Xu Yang."
The other end of the phone said again: "Master Xu, congratulations on your successful promotion to the provincial competition. Now I inform you to arrive at the Culinary Association on time at 3 pm. The address is..."
"Okay, I'll be there on time."
"Ok."
After hanging up the phone, the smile on Xu Yang's face was obvious, and he finally waited for this moment.
As for why he must go to the Culinary Association, it is estimated that there are other things.
The time of 3 o'clock is very good. After my business hours in the morning are over, I can just rush there.
If the time is not long, you can come back and continue to operate. If the time is too long, it will naturally stop operating at night.
After waiting until 2:[-] in the afternoon, Xu Yang set off for the Culinary Association.
On the way, I received a call from Wang Dongjie.
After inquiring, I learned that he had also received a call and was on his way here. As for the specific ranking, I don't know.
I didn’t go to the game later, so I don’t know the specific scores.
When he arrived at the Culinary Association, after showing his identity information, Xu Yang was taken in.
"Master Xu, you are finally here." Su Qiang said with a smile.
"Sorry, the restaurant was still open in the morning, and I was busy until after 2 o'clock."
It was already 2:55 when he arrived, and it was only 3 minutes before 5:[-].
Su Qiang said indifferently: "Master Xu, go in quickly, you are the only one left."
Following Su Qiang to a room, there were already about [-] people waiting inside.
Seeing Xu Yang come in, Wang Dongjie smiled and pointed to the empty seat next to him and said: "Xu Yang, here."
Then naturally sat down.
After Xu Yang was seated, Su Qiang continued: "Okay, now that everyone is here, we can start today's business."
"First of all, I would like to congratulate all the masters here. According to the arrangement of the Jincheng Cuisine Association by the Provincial Cuisine Association, there are finally 190 places that can enter the provincial competition. A total of 150 masters in our province have been shortlisted for the provincial competition. Five people, and you are going to compete with these [-] people."
"Also, let me announce the rankings and specific scores of each master first."
This is the part everyone is most looking forward to.
After all, the game is over, and the current score is the final result.
Then Su Qiang got the form from the staff.
"No. 16 is Master Zhao Dong, with a final score of 245 points. No. 15 is Master He Jialing, with a final score of 247 points... No. 7 is Master Wang Dongjie, with a final score of 261.66 points."
Wang Dongjie was finally determined to be No.7, which is a good result.
In fact, it doesn't matter, after all, as long as you are in the top sixteen, you can advance.
As for whether the culinary skills are getting worse as you go later, no one can guarantee this, because some people will save their strength in the previous rounds and fail to show their true strength.
There is no guarantee until the last minute.
When the No.2 result was announced, Su Qiang said with a smile: "Now let's announce the No.1 Master Xu Yang's result. The total score is 280.33 points. Let us congratulate Master Xu Yang."
Hearing these words, everyone's eyes turned to Xu Yang.
They are in the front ranks, so they naturally know how difficult it is to get a score of 280 points. They did not expect such a young boy to get such a high score.
As for whether it is fake or not, no one doubts that it has to go through layers of verification.
"Okay, the ranking announcement is over. Next, let me explain the competition rules of the provincial competition in detail. First of all, the first point is the competition time. According to the unified arrangement, the competition time is scheduled to officially start on November 11th and end in six days. The number of people who passed has not been determined for the time being, but according to the calculations of the previous three sessions, no more than 12 people will be able to pass in the end, so the competition is very fierce."
"The second is the rules of the competition. There are also three dishes in the competition. Two dishes are self-selected and one dish is machine-selected. That is, you can choose the two dishes yourself. As for the other dish, it can only be obtained by drawing lots. In addition to strength, there is also luck in this round, because if you are lucky enough to get a dish that you are good at, you will definitely get a high score, but if you get a dish that you are not good at, then it is difficult to get a high score."
Xu Yang knew that the provincial competition would not be easy.
Sure enough, one of the dishes was randomly selected.
I am not very worried, there is a system, and upgrading after exchange is not a problem.
It may not be a ten-star dish, but there is still no problem with high-scoring dishes.
Especially since there are two dishes that you can choose yourself, of course you still have to come up with two ten-star dishes.
It's a pity that there is not much time, otherwise I can upgrade to a four-star chef.
In that case, knife skills and cooking skills will be improved accordingly, and the scores will be higher.
Anyway, I have nothing to worry about.Then Su Qiang said again: "In addition, the order of this competition is also randomly selected according to the machine. At present, it should be on November 11, that is, the day after tomorrow. You will receive information from the Provincial Association. At that time, everyone can pay attention. There will be the order of the competition, and you can also inquire through the website of the association, not only the order of the competition, but also the specific time of the competition, everyone should pay attention to it when the time comes.”
Sure enough, when it comes to this round, everything will be more stringent.Unlike the first round of competition, it is not particularly strict. "Now let's talk about the fourth thing. When you leave later, you can get the identity information of the provincial competition from me. You will need to show it at that time. Although you can verify it online, it is a chef from the whole province after all. It must be more convenient like this, of course, don’t be afraid if you lose it this time, you can come to the association to apply for a replacement.”
Not to mention, this is more humane, at least don't worry about losing it.
Then Su Qiang said something else, telling everyone to leave.
"By the way, Master Xu Yang, and the masters who won No.2 and No.3 stay here for a while, there is still something to do."
"Ok."
