"Sorry, not interested." Su Xi didn't seem to like Mr. Wu very much, so she simply refused.
"Manager Su, don't be so direct." Mr. Wu chuckled, "I just see that you are beautiful, otherwise you think I really want to invite you! After several years in Fengge Hotel, you have treated your boss Jin
You are all fed, and you are happy."
"You!" Su Xi stood up angrily, pointing at Mr. Wu with a livid face.
Mr. Wu said disdainfully, "Why are you pretending to be innocent with me? We are all people in the mall and everyone knows what is going on. I am a female hotel manager who has slept with me countless times. How can you escape? Pretend.
What kind of costume are you wearing?"
Su Xi felt that her head was lacking oxygen.
At this moment, Chen Yang stood up and said coldly to Mr. Wu, "Apologise."
"Who are you?" Mr. Wu didn't take Chen Yang seriously at all, "You are a little farmer, Su Xi's pretty boy, I think you are really..."
Snapped!
Without thinking, Chen Yang slapped him in the face.
Mr. Wu never expected that Chen Yang would be so irritable. He was slapped and took several steps back, stroking his face in disbelief.
"You...you dare to hit me, you are seeking death!" Mr. Wu was extremely angry.
Su Xi was also startled.
But Chen Yang looked calm, "If you dare to be rude to Sister Su again, I won't just beat you next time."
"Okay, okay, just wait for me!" Mr. Wu gritted his teeth, almost breaking them when he looked at them.
But with so many people, he was no match for Chen Yang, so he could only leave bitterly in the end.
"What are you doing!" As soon as he left, Su Xi became anxious, "Xiaoyang, this Mr. Wu is not an ordinary person. Why are you so impulsive? If you offend him, you won't get anything good.
"
"Sister Su, don't worry, I'm fine. Who told him to say that about you?" Chen Yang said.
Su Xi felt a little moved in her heart and could only smile bitterly.
Fortunately, the Fish King Competition will begin soon.
The host came on stage, cleared his throat, and said to the many viewers below, "Hello everyone, now we are here again for our annual King of Fish Competition. This is a grand event in our Qingzhou cooking world. Every year we accept dozens or even
Hundreds of hotels and restaurants applied to participate, and this year it broke the previous record, reaching 108!"
Chen Yang was secretly stunned. It seems that this influence is indeed quite big, but that's fine. As long as he gets first place, his reputation will be huge.
"Now, please all representatives put their own fish into the water tank. Our ten judges, composed of chefs and breeding professionals, will start scoring in five minutes."
The host left quickly.
Then, each fish was put into the water tank by their respective people.
"Wow, look, that grass carp is so big, it must weigh at least thirty kilograms!"
"That carp is not small either!"
…
Many people in the audience were observing.
But they were sitting a little far away and could only look at the size.
Chen Yang's mandarin fish is really not that big here, it can only be regarded as above average.
As everyone put the fish in the water tank, the judges officially started to see the fish.
"This grass carp is not bad. It has a slender body and is very big. It is neither fat nor thin. It looks very energetic."
"This carp is not bad, it looks delicate."
"This bighead carp..."
…
These judges passed by one by one, and they sounded a little disappointed. Although they commented like this, in fact, they were not particularly good.
Finally, they arrived at the Fengge Hotel.
"Mandarin fish!" The first judge who passed by almost jumped up, "Oh my God, such a big mandarin fish!"
After others saw it clearly, they stepped forward and surrounded him.
"It's really a mandarin fish, and it's wild. Look at the gills, how natural they are. Look at its color. If it's farmed, it wouldn't have such a natural color."
"And it's also big. It's hard to see such a big mandarin fish in the wild!"
"She looks very slender and looks very energetic and beautiful."
“What a fish, what a fish!”
…
The judges laughed loudly. After watching it for so long, they finally saw a good fish that shocked them.
Going all the way like this actually takes a long time.
It took them about two hours to finish viewing more than a hundred fish.
Everyone returned to their seats and started grading.
"Okay!" Before twelve o'clock, the host came on stage again, "Now the judges of our live fish have come out, and the score is in my hands, but our score was announced at the end, and now it's time to cook.
Okay, next, invite the chefs to come on and start cooking. Remember, the time is one hour. Those who cook it first can be evaluated first. But after one hour, they must stop. Start now!"
Soon, the chefs came on stage.
All of a sudden, I saw the fish being fished out of the tank, placed in front of them and started to be slaughtered.
But what the judges paid most attention to was the big mandarin fish.
I saw the chef of Fengge Hotel come forward, fish out the mandarin fish, knock the fish unconscious, and start cutting it.
It didn't take long for the internal organs to be processed, and then I started cutting them with a knife, then chopped the condiments, and started steaming them.
"Steamed!" The judge was a little disappointed. "This fish is a bit too big. In fact, it might be better if we make several different dishes based on different parts."
The other judges nodded.
"This is a decision we made after careful consideration." Su Xi explained to Chen Yang, "Wild mandarin fish is eaten with the original flavor, otherwise it would be boring, so we don't have to do anything, just steam it."
Chen Yang looked calm.
Fish of my quality, no matter how you cook it, will only taste delicious, never unpalatable.
He has absolute confidence in this.
"It's okay!" Chen Yang said, "This is a good thing. It's delicious no matter how you cook it. I'll definitely be able to take them down when the time comes."
Su Xi smiled.
In fact, there are many options for steaming fish, and steaming fish only takes up to 20 minutes.
Half an hour into the competition, many people had already prepared the dishes.
"Okay, let's take a look. A lot of fish have been cooked. We saw that the fish at the Crystal Hotel has been cooked. The judges are going there. They are cooking braised fish!"
Crystal Hotel is Mr. Wu’s hotel.
Mr. Wu sat there and looked at Chen Yang and Su Xi hatefully.
After the judges finished eating, they nodded one after another, and everyone started scoring again.
Since there are more than a hundred dishes to taste, they basically eat one bite.
After eating like this, they finally arrived in front of Fengge Hotel.
"What a pity!" One of the judges couldn't help but babbled, "This mandarin fish should not be steamed because it is so big. The meat is not so tender. You should disassemble the fish and cook it according to each part."
The chef looked a little embarrassed. Thinking about it this way, it seemed that he was indeed a little reckless.
But now there is no other way but to open the pot.
Wow, a strange smell spread to their mouths.
"It smells so good!" All ten judges were shocked.
The chef was also confused, I didn’t add any spices, why is it so fragrant?
"Let me have a bite!" One of the judges couldn't help but pick up a piece of fish with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth.
