After traveling through time, the restaurant I opened became a big hit

Chapter 54: The audition is over

The next morning, Jiang Li got up early again, because today was the day to announce the audition results.

It was still that square, and it was still surrounded by people.

However, there are much fewer people this time than last time, and those who persisted to the end actually have some idea of ​​the situation in their hearts.

The program team’s real-time ranking stopped yesterday morning, and everyone is here today to reveal the final ranking.

Jiang Li had just found a seat to sit down when he heard bursts of exclamations from behind him.

There was no need to guess, she knew the person coming was Chu Shaocheng.

He is a popular candidate who has been ranked among the top three in the audition competition in City A. The remaining two popular contestants are both older chefs.

Therefore, Chu Shaocheng also attracted much attention because of his young age.

The host walked onto the stage and, after introducing and thanking the sponsors as usual, officially entered the segment that everyone was looking forward to.

“It can be seen that everyone here is looking forward to our final ranking results.”

Before announcing the rankings, the host chose to leave some suspense.

The first person to be announced is the twentieth place, a veteran worker from a hotel, who earned a total of 9826 yuan from setting up a stall in one week.

When the host said his name, the old master was so excited that his eyes were filled with tears.

Before, his ranking fluctuated around 20th place, but unexpectedly, he was finally shortlisted.

The nineteenth is a famous female dim sum chef, well-known for her skill in making steamed buns, pastries, dumplings and other dim sum.

Most of the pastries made are small and exquisite, and are very popular among girls.

As names were called out one by one, the atmosphere became increasingly tense.

The remaining places are getting fewer and fewer, and their chances of being shortlisted are getting smaller and smaller.

Jiang Li ranked eleventh, which was within her expectations.

Everyone was a little shocked when they saw Jiang Li, the only two young people at the scene besides Chu Shaocheng.

She is a very delicate and pretty girl. How come I never noticed her before?

Everyone's eyes did not stay on Jiang Li for too long, probably because they thought her ranking was not high and she was simply lucky.

In addition, the rankings have not been fully announced yet, so everyone's attention is still mainly focused on the host.

Soon the top three arrived, and Chu Shaocheng, who was sitting in the front, slowly sat up straight.

The third is the founder of a famous chef’s private kitchen, who enjoys a high reputation in the catering industry.

He started working as an apprentice in a restaurant at the age of sixteen and has been engaged in the culinary industry for decades, so it is well-deserved that he got third place.

The second place is Chu Shaocheng, who has been on the hot searches since he set up the stall and is very popular.

But he is not only good-looking, but also has real cooking skills.

The reason why he got the second place might be because of his successful online marketing image, so he surpassed the famous chef and ranked second.

As for the first place, he is a leading figure in the Sichuan cuisine world. The Sichuan cuisine he cooks has been served at state banquets, and he was chosen by the Prime Minister to be the chef.

If Jiang Li remembered correctly, he should be the final champion of "The Chef Contest".

Thinking back to the task assigned by the system, getting first place in the competition, it seems very simple.

But when facing such a powerful figure, Jiang Li suddenly felt a sense of pressure.

In the novel, even the male protagonist cannot surpass the big shot, so she has to work twice as hard.

After the system upgrade is completed, she should improve her own strength as soon as possible. Now that she has the golden finger, she must make full use of its value.

After announcing the rankings, the host left the 20 finalists to wait for the official start of the show. The remaining contestants, unfortunately, had to leave.

After everyone had left, the staff gave each contestant an envelope.

"Inside the envelope is the recording time and location of the first episode of 'The Chef Contest'."

"And most importantly, the theme of our first issue."

“You can spend the next period of time to study and think about our topic.”

"See you next time!"

Jiang Li returned home with the envelope. As soon as he sat on the sofa, he couldn't wait to open the envelope to see what was inside.

The recording time is on March 1st, which is about half a month from now.

The recording location was not in City A. Jiang Li checked online and found that this place was quite far away from City A. It was an ancient water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

Spring is the most beautiful season there, with all kinds of flowers blooming all over the mountains.

Walking on the ancient trail, you can also be filled with the fragrance of flowers.

If you are lucky and there is a spring rain in the south of the Yangtze River, the whole valley will be filled with mist, as if you have accidentally entered a paradise where immortals live in seclusion.

Then, Jiang Li saw a black card with a gold-stamped border in the envelope, on which was written the theme of the first issue.

Just one simple word: food.

What does it mean? Just the word "rice". Do you want them to cook?
The cooking competition started with a simple bowl of rice, which was quite creative.

On the surface, rice seems simple and everyone knows how to cook.

But if you want to make a difference, it depends on the chef’s skills.

Jiang Li thought about it over and over again until his head ached, but he still couldn't think of anything shocking that the rice could be made into.

In the end, Jiang Li simply gave up.

It’s just that the system is still being upgraded, so I can’t go to the cooking teaching space to practice and improve my skills.

Since I can’t go to the teaching space, I might as well go to Yuelai Restaurant.

Jiang Li wanted to listen to customers' opinions, and perhaps improve his cooking skills.

When we arrived at the restaurant in the afternoon, there were already a few customers eating there.

When they saw Jiang Li, they all greeted him enthusiastically. After all, they were all old customers nearby. How could they not know the boss?
Jiang Li also responded to them enthusiastically. There were more and more guests who liked to eat her meals, and she might not be able to remember everyone.

But the satisfied looks on everyone's faces after the meal relieved her anxiety about the competition.

That kind of impetuous feeling of quick success and instant benefits has also disappeared. When you are troubled, you might as well cook a few more dishes.

Because the system mall had not yet opened, Jiang Li randomly picked out some of the remaining ingredients in his backpack.

Then choose green peppers and eggs. She plans to make a green pepper and egg risotto.

The blackboard menu outside includes this fried rice for 10 yuan.

At the back, Jiang Li wrote in small letters: Customers who evaluate the fried rice or give specific suggestions for improvement can receive a mysterious gift from the boss.

Just as I finished writing, a customer who had not yet finished his meal came over.

See the new dishes on the blackboard, and then see the line of beautiful small characters behind it.

They immediately raised their hands and said to Jiang Li, "Boss, give us two servings of green pepper and egg rice."
