Little Chef

Chapter 89

Anyway, Su Tang is the goal. Now that the things at home have been packed, they will move to the new house at dawn.

Speaking of the time of moving, Shangqing Temple and Lingyin Temple helped her calculate the time at the same time, and sent someone to send it over.

Coincidentally, it all says tomorrow is good!

Su Tang immediately decided to set off immediately.

On the day of moving, Su Tang was quite lively, Zhu Jinyuan, Huang Yuetong, and Qi Tianyun's servants came to entertain her.

Anyway, let the host and guest enjoy themselves.

Fortunately, with them, Su Tang didn't have to entertain by himself, after all, there were really too many people.

Many people also sent gifts, some of these things can be accepted, and some can't.

Anyway, Su Tang directly said that people she doesn't know should just ask them to take the gift back. She really doesn't want to get involved in trouble.

When Qi Tianyun saw that she was doing things neatly, the smile in his eyes deepened.

Sure enough, he was right.

After the moving was over, with Huang Yuetong's help, Su Tang finally hired a coachman and bought a carriage.

But the horse was sponsored by Qi Tianyun.

Since I really have no money, I still accept this horse sugar.

In the future, when Su Jinhang goes to school again, he won't have to go back and forth, but the school still has to be changed.

Master Zhao's school in Xicheng had moved away, and the school had to be changed.

Under Zhou Cong's recommendation, Su Jinhang went to the Confucian Academy smoothly, and there happened to be a few students who were the same age as Su Jinhang, who could study together.

On Mrs. Zhao's side, Su Tang also gave a thank you gift.

Then came the cleaning woman, the maid, and the two servants.

After all, this house is not too small, and there are people to take care of it no matter what.

In this way, there are almost ten people.

The people Su Tang picks are very stable, as long as she works hard, she will not treat them badly.

In fact, those who can be selected feel very lucky.

After all, Su Tang's family has a simple population, so he just needs to take good care of Miss Su Tang and Su Jinhang's little boy.

And this is the future Mrs. Hou Ye.

Maybe they can follow you to the Hou Mansion in the future.

As for the person in charge, it was naturally recommended by Qi Tianyun.

But after Qi Tianyun recommended him, he directly gave the deed to Su Tang, which proved that he would be Su Tang's person in the future, and he would not ask any questions.

Originally, Qi Tianyun thought that Su Tang would be unhappy, and thought that he wanted to insert someone in.

Su Tang would think so? Certainly not, it's too late for her to be happy!

In the future, she can ignore the chores at home, how wonderful!

Sometimes Qi Tianyun doesn't know whether Su Tang is smart or a fool.

Anyway, things in the house are stable, and Aunt Zhou also came to the door.

In recent days, Aunt Zhou is also preparing to move.

First, Zhou Cong has already come to the Confucian Academy, which is relatively close to the east of the city. As a widowed mother, of course she is worried.

The owner said before that she wanted to open a shop in Xicheng, and asked her if she would like to come.

In fact, Aunt Zhou didn't hesitate much, she just said that she wanted to follow the boss.

Of course Su Tang couldn't be happier.

After all, he is an experienced old man, and there must be no problem with Aunt Zhou in the newly opened breakfast shop.

So let Aunt Zhou get ready and come to Dongcheng with her.

If it wasn't for the delay of the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, their store would have already opened.

Aunt Zhou came here today to discuss the new store.

According to Aunt Zhou's idea, it should be to find a good location and start opening a shop

Su Tang is sitting on the soft bed right now, the pillow is the goose down core sent by Qi Tianyun, it's so comfortable that I don't even want to get up.

Su Tang said, "There's no need to look for a good location, let's go and ask in the afternoon, which one is better."

In fact, you don't need to ask yourself, the two stewards sent by Qi Tianyun, the foreign stewards are in their fifties, old people who have retired from the army, they do things properly, and the stewards Liu.

The internal steward is the nanny in the palace. She is in her forties this year and has been out of the palace for ten years. She is familiar with both inside and outside the palace. Everyone calls her Nanny Li.

Nanny Li also knew that Su Tang had opened a breakfast shop in the west city, which was very popular with the people in the east city. It was actually quite strange to hear Su Tang say that she wanted to find a shop that was a bit out of the way.

After all, whoever does business does not choose a good location.

If Su Tang had money, of course he would do the same.

But she really didn't have much money in her hand, so she had to choose a location farther away.

Besides, her family's early shop is famous, so people will naturally come to find her.

After Su Tang said these thoughts, Aunt Zhou and Nanny Li suddenly realized.

Indeed, anyway, the shop was in the West City earlier, and everyone had to go there to drive a carriage. Now that the shop has moved to the East City, no matter where the shop is located, it will not be too far away.

Some people's servants can buy it on foot.

Su Tang thought about the money in his hand, anyway, how to save money is the right way!

Nanny Li quickly found a street. This street is on the side of the market, and the place is relatively remote. Those who go there to open shops are basically shops with regular customers and do not rely on the facade.

Su Tang and the others came to Dechang Street in a carriage. As expected, there are not many shops here, and people rarely shop here.

It is worth mentioning that Mengjing Pavilion is in the best location on the main street.

And this Dechang Street where Su Tang came from can only be regarded as a side road.

No matter what others think, anyway, Su Tang thinks that if he can rent two storefronts with fifteen taels of silver, that's really enough.

If you go to the street of Mengjing Pavilion, the rent will be doubled.

Moreover, there are quite a lot of vacant shops on Dechang Street, and you can rent them anywhere, and the landlord is quite talkative.

It's a bit strange to hear that they are doing early business.

After all, there are too few people on this street, so the restaurant must be opened in a good location.

How can you make money if no one passes by the door.

But seeing that Su Tang insisted on renting, the landlord didn't say anything.

After paying the one-year rent plus the deposit, Su Tang had only five hundred and seventy-one taels of silver left, leaving only three hundred and sixty-one taels.

The start-up capital to open a store is getting less and less!

Although Qi Tianyun's two thousand taels were still in her room, he would not move if he could.

More than three hundred taels should be enough, right

Fortunately, Su Tang had experience in opening a store, so he approached Li Fan from Xicheng.

Seeing this, Li Fan suggested directly, or find some buddies from Xicheng Restaurant to help.

Anyway, it's really easy to recruit people in Xicheng. I don't know how many people are willing to work in Xicheng restaurants.

This suggestion is very good, but Su Tang thought about it, and asked Li Fan to ask the aunts who wash dishes and vegetables in the back kitchen to see if they are willing to work here.

At the beginning, the shop invited two women, and they both did a good job.

Wang Wu's daughter-in-law is now in charge of the breakfast shop in the west city, and Aunt Zhou came to manage the breakfast shop in the east city with her. Everyone knows whether the work is good or not.

In the shop here now, Su Tang still asks the woman to come over.

Su Tang was originally afraid that the women who washed the dishes would go from the west city to the east city, and they would be unwilling, but she didn't expect that out of the eight women in total, seven of them wanted to come.

One of them was unable to leave because there was a baby at home.

The remaining seven people scrambled to come over.

Su Tang asked Aunt Zhou to pick three or four people she liked, and they would come to Dongcheng together to help.

Three or four from the west city, and then three or four from the locals in the east city, that's about it.

Seven or eight people do things, that's about it.

When Aunt Zhou went to pick someone, she had mixed feelings. To be honest, she was orphaned and widowed, so she suffered a lot of grievances.

Since I met my boss, I can lift my head when I walk.

Many people around were also friendly to her, as if nothing had happened.

Anyway, when she came to pick people, these people were so kind.

Among them was someone who secretly mocked her Kefu.

Aunt Zhou would never choose her. According to the boss, the selection this time depends entirely on her liking.

Only when the person in charge likes it can we do things well together.

In the end, Aunt Zhou picked four of them to go back. They were all women who were down-to-earth and willing to work. When the time came, they would run the breakfast shop in Dongcheng together.

In fact, they don't need to teach too much, they have been in Xicheng Restaurant for a long time, and they are also familiar with the affairs of the restaurant.

They also negotiated to hire a carriage together. Anyway, they have a good monthly salary, and the four of them are working hard to hire a carriage to take them back and forth. In fact, it doesn't cost much.

I have to say, if I told them that I was willing to hire a car half a year ago, who would believe it

And sometimes if you are busy, you can live directly in the store, and there are rooms in the backyard of the store.

These Aunt Zhou told them in advance.

Anyway, Aunt Zhou and Zhou Cong live behind the breakfast shop in Dongcheng. There are five wing rooms behind it, and the guys used to live there.

Clean it up, it's better than their own house.

Su Tang got acquainted with the people and let them get acquainted with the new breakfast shop.

This shop is more than double the size of the shop in Xicheng, so we can make more varieties sooner.

But everything has to be slow.

Now it still needs to be repaired and changed into an earlier shop that they are familiar with.

It's still similar to a modern breakfast shop, with a clean and bright operating room, several kinds of hot porridge on the counter, and then several kinds of steamed stuffed buns, and snacks.

There are also free pickles that can be used.

The tables are similar to those in the west city, the long tables and chairs can seat many people.

Aunt Zhou followed Su Tang, watching the two shops gradually become familiar, feeling deeply moved.

Fortunately, they have made all these sugar candies, and they can ask the carpenters they know in Xicheng for help. In five days, they can open the shop sooner.

Su Tang just wanted to finish it quickly, and then hand it over to Aunt Zhou, so that she could return to the house to salt fish.

If there is any benefit to moving.

Of course it is so comfortable!

If possible, she can not go out for half a month. Anyway, she has everything at home, and she can cook whatever she wants.

No one will want to see the privacy of their home, I don't know how convenient it is.

Su Tang was already immersed in the joy of her new home.

But the happiest person in Dongcheng is not Su Tang, but someone else.

That is the servants of many portal families!

After opening a delicious breakfast shop in Xicheng, many servants of the family had to queue up in a carriage to buy it back.

When you buy it, you have to make sure it is hot, especially the soup dumplings. If it is not hot, it will not taste good.

But going back and forth is really hard work.

At that time, they were all telling the owner that it would be better to come to Dongcheng to open, and the business would definitely be good by then.

But the owner was unmoved at all.

When they knew that the owner was Su Tang, who was famous in Beijing, they thought she was about to become Mrs. Hou Ye, and they definitely had no idea of opening a shop in Dongcheng.

I didn't expect that!

When they went to line up in the west city again, they heard from Wang Wu's wife inside that their boss was going to open a breakfast shop in the east city!

And gave them a new address!

These people almost watched the early shops in Dongcheng open. It took five days to decorate, three days to find employees, and two days to train.

Then one day of trial training, they waited for eleven days!

You can finally buy it here today!

I just don't know how the craftsmanship of this shop is.

But as soon as they entered the door, they saw the familiar Aunt Zhou, and everyone didn't think about it anymore, just buy it!

And Su Tang got up early in the morning, and took Qi Tianyun to watch the business situation together.

Both of them didn't enter the door, they just sat in the carriage and looked around.

Qi Tianyun saw that she was still sneaking around in her shop, and said with a smile, "Why don't you go in and have a look."

"It's nothing to look at, I'll just make everyone scurry in the past." Su Tang said seriously, "Wait a minute, wait until there are fewer people before going in."

It may have just opened, and the people inside are still queuing up.

That is to say, Aunt Zhou has experience in queuing and quickly stabilized the situation.

The few women from Xicheng are okay, they have all seen the popularity of Xicheng restaurants, this is not a big deal.

But the woman recruited from Dongcheng was dumbfounded.

"I have been in Dongcheng for so many years, and I have never seen such a popular restaurant."

"That's right, maybe it just opened, everyone is new."

"But our shop is so remote, how did they find it?"

"Or are you here for the fame of our boss?"

After all, it's Mrs. Hou Ye, everyone wants to come to cheer, so it seems to make sense

However, it is estimated that it will be fresh for two days, and the business will not be so good after waiting.

The four of them couldn't help talking. Aunt Zhou listened and said directly: "Even if there is no Marquis, the business of our shop is still so good. I'm afraid there will be more people than now."

Now queuing up to buy breakfast, most of them are regular customers, and Aunt Zhou knows which servants and maids they are from, not to mention, when the reputation of their family's breakfast spreads, those who were unwilling to travel so far to buy breakfast The family will also come now.

Of course, their house was earlier three pennies more expensive than the ones bought in Xicheng.

No matter what, the price has been increased by three pennies, and the price is no longer cheap.

After all, this is Dongcheng, where a bowl of noodles costs fifteen cents.

Aunt Zhou believed that the business of their shop would only get better and better.

The women from the west city believed it, but those from the east city were still a little skeptical. But considering the wages paid by the boss, they should work honestly. Whether his business is good or not, they will be serious.

After all, there are not many jobs dedicated to women, and they cherish them very much.

So murmurs go back to murmurs, and the work under his hands didn't stop at all.

I believe they will soon find out that what Aunt Zhou said is true, and the business of their shop will really continue to improve.

Of course, Aunt Zhou also found out that they probably had never tasted the food in the store, so they had such doubts.

Su Tang sat in the carriage and waited for a long time, but there were always so many people in the store that she never had a chance to enter.

Most importantly, she came without breakfast!

Just to have breakfast!

Just when Su Tang started to touch his stomach, Li Shiwei responded outside, and then handed in a food box.

Before Su Tang could react, Qi Tianyun caught it.

Qi Tianyun laughed and said, "I didn't eat breakfast when I saw it."

Su Tang's face blushed subconsciously, he could find everything no matter what.

When Qi Tianyun opened the food box, he saw an assortment of food inside, and the two of them were completely rich!

Qi Tianyun introduced Du: "Jujube paste cake, glutinous rice flour, fried spring rolls, and tofu nao are all famous snacks around, you should try them."

Not to mention, this carriage really has everything, Qi Tianyun made a small table out of nowhere, and the small table was filled with food.

Fortunately, Qi Tianyun's carriage is spacious enough, so it's okay to eat here.

But just as Su Tang made a jujube cake, he subconsciously looked at Qi Tianyun: "What about you, what do you eat?"

Qi Tianyun took out another portion of noodles from under the food box: "Let the cooks in the house imitate the noodles you make. It's clumsy, but you can eat it."

Su Tang looked at this noodle, it was delicious in color and fragrance, is this just edible

"Let me try it?"

What is wrong? She obviously gave out the method of how to make Qi Tianyun's recipes.

Qi Tianyun picked up a few noodles and leaned in front of Su Tang: "Try it."

?

Is this the proper way to try it

Su Tang tried to take the chopsticks, but Qi Tianyun didn't let go: "It's just the two of us here, what's wrong with you?"

What's wrong!

Did all of you ancient people know this!

Su Tang was fed some noodles by Qi Tianyun, let alone tasted it, he didn't even know how to eat it!

After she took two mouthfuls, she realized that this was Qi Tianyun's breakfast, and all Qi Tianyun could eat was this bowl of noodles, so she hurriedly said, "No, I ate it, what did you eat?"

Qi Tianyun raised his eyebrows: "Keep eating."

As he spoke, Qi Tianyun continued to eat noodles with the chopsticks he used to feed Su Tang.

Always feel weird!

Su Tang ate the jujube cake with a blank expression, and then heard the noise outside, Su Tang opened the curtain to look, and saw that many early shops had disappeared in line, and everyone was going out.

They walked and talked.

"Is it sold out so quickly? Why don't they prepare more breakfast?"

"It's a pity, I didn't buy it this time, and the host will scold me again."

"It's okay if you can't buy it sometimes in the west city, but you can't buy it in the east city either."

"Be sure to come early tomorrow."

Su Tang was surprised, and asked the time, it was not until the end of the hour, around eight o'clock in the morning, and it was already sold out

Although she knew that the business would be good, but how could it be like this

Su Tang really didn't expect it.

But there is no one in the store now, so she can go over to see the situation.

Qi Tianyun also finished his breakfast and got off the carriage with Su Tang.

When the two of them walked into the breakfast shop side by side, there were still more than a dozen people eating.

The chefs in the store were too tired to sit behind the counter to rest.

Aunt Zhou was used to such intensity, and she was still cleaning up the dishes.

Seeing Su Tang coming, Aunt Zhou said pleasantly, "Master, I told you that it will open on the first day of today, and you must come."

Su Tang nodded: "Everyone has worked hard, I just saw the crowd outside, so I didn't come in."

As soon as Aunt Zhou finished speaking, she saw Marquis Weiyuan again and hurried to salute.

Everyone followed suit.

But Su Tang didn't make any noise, there were still customers in this shop after all.

Qi Tianyun didn't say anything, he came here today to accompany Su Tang, and he didn't need to do anything else.

Su Tang is a woman who can still be powerful without relying on him.

Fortunately, Aunt Zhou had actually met Qi Tianyun a few times, so she was not so nervous, and quickly told Su Tang about the situation in the store.

In their store in Dongcheng, the food is a bit more expensive, and there is no free soup, but free pickles.

These are all fine, but the requirements of the guests are obviously more.

For example, I think their tableware is simple, and I also feel that there are too few dishes in the food.

Some simply want to order early, preferably so that they can pick it up when they come.

These needs were all recorded by Su Tang, and he also understood that since he came to Dongcheng, he must follow the situation in Dongcheng.

There are many dignitaries in Dongcheng, so they have high requirements for things, which is normal.

It depends on how they do it.

After all, rich people don't want to eat the same as ordinary people, she understands.

Anyway, make money.

Su Tang is going to launch several new buns, which are exclusively for Dongcheng. Of course, the price will not be too beautiful.

But it's not as outrageous as Mengjing Pavilion.

First of all, the most important sweet buns, bean paste stuffing, custard buns, always come.

This is a classic of sweet steamed stuffed buns, especially custard buns, which can be eaten with sugar in one bite.

Then there are the salty buns.

Shrimp and cabbage, mushroom and cabbage, as well as crab roe buns and three-sided buns, are basically classic flavors.

As long as these are made, no one will buy them.

And Su Tang also decided to make some palatable food, so that even if the party goes to work after eating, it won't be embarrassing.

It would not be embarrassing for the ministers to eat steamed buns with leeks and eggs and then go to court.

Cabbage, shiitake mushrooms and shrimp meat can perfectly solve these problems.

As for porridge, it is even simpler, such as pork rib porridge, shrimp porridge, and three delicacies porridge.

Sweet, mung bean lily porridge, lily tremella porridge, five grain porridge.

Anyway, every kind of food, Su Tang will make it delicious.

In the next few days, Su Tang got up early with everyone, then made new recipes, and tried to teach everyone.

People from the west city are used to it, but the women in the east city are a little confused.

With such a good craftsmanship, why does the owner teach people directly, isn't it afraid that they will go out and open their own shop

Are you saying that Su Tang is afraid

She was naturally not afraid. To be honest, she paid a lot of monthly money, and asked them to sign a contract in advance, that is, they were not allowed to work in the same family for three years, and they were not allowed to open a shop by themselves.

It's almost like a modern non-compete agreement.

Su Tang is not a fool, he will not be really unreserved.

When I signed these things at the beginning, I also repeatedly emphasized to the recruiters.

The four women in Dongcheng had already convinced Su Tang at this time, and they had never seen someone as powerful as Su Tang.

She seems to be very thoughtful about everything.

And Qi Tianyun accompanied Su Tang almost all the time, it was inconvenient for them both to appear in front of everyone, one was in the back kitchen and the other was in the backyard.

After Su Tang finished his work, he asked someone to put the breakfast in front of Qi Tianyun, and the two of them would eat breakfast happily.

Qi Tianyun went to court, Su Tang continued to run the shop.

The two have been like this for several days, and there is a kind of tacit understanding.

At the dim sum shop in Dongcheng, at this time, Su Tang has no second thoughts on Su Tang, and concentrates on his work.

Because recently they found out that this boss is a rare good boss, not only that, Lord Hou is sincere to Su Tang.

With such abilities and such backing, if they do well, they will naturally do well.

If you have any other ideas, just see if the guards behind Master Hou will draw their swords.

I heard that the people around Marquis Weiyuan have all been on the battlefield, who would not be afraid.

There were eight or nine people in the store, including Su Tang, a total of ten people, and finally put up the new recipe.

When writing the menu, Qi Tianyun raised his eyebrows: "I wrote your previous menu, do you want me to write it for you?"

At that time, I didn't know that Qi Tianyun was Lord Hou, but now that I know, can I let him write

Of course you can!

While everyone was stunned, Su Tang really took the menu.

Same as before, Qi Tianyun writes, Su Tang draws, this kind of menu looks simple and clear, even those who can't read can understand it.

When everyone recognizes that this is Master Hou's handwriting in the future, they can only sigh that the relationship between the two is really good.

After writing these words, Qi Tianyun is about to go to court, and there are more and more people in the breakfast shop in Dongcheng.

There are more people who bring breakfast for their own master than those who eat here.

One is for Su Tang's reputation, which was naturally spread through the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet.

I heard that after people eat the dishes she cooks, they can't eat anything else.

Especially the little prince of Tubo, among them he just proposed a marriage. After being distracted by the little emperor, he went to ask again, feeling like he wanted to take Su Tang away.

In the end, the Minister of Honglu Temple had no choice but to tell the Tubo envoys about Su Tang and Marquis Weiyuan, and the little prince stopped.

But during those two days, the little prince Xia Hafu's complexion was obviously not good-looking.

So what if it doesn't look good, he came too late, everyone is already engaged!

So many people want to know how delicious the dishes made by Su Tang are, and how amazing it is that they can fascinate people like this.

This is curious, as well as regular customers, who were pleasantly surprised to find that the opinions they asked people to put forward were really useful and really added a lot of dishes.

This surprised everyone, so hurry up and buy it.

The key is that each of them is delicious. Once you eat it, you can't help but eat it again.

Now the types of breakfast shops in Dongcheng can make people eat without repeating the same for seven days.

What's more, let the servants of the family come to buy it every day, and everyone in the store knows them.

But it's delicious!

As expected of the top five in the God of Cooking Competition, the food in her shop is delicious.

So everyone discovered miraculously that no matter how many ingredients Su Tang prepared in her shop, they would be sold out quickly.

Even if I didn't buy it, I would be angry, and I would take out my own post, asking the people in the store to provide food.

At the beginning, Aunt Zhou was still afraid, after all, there seemed to be quite a few officials, but the women in Dongcheng had seen many high-ranking officials, and said directly: "Our host is the fiancée of Marquis Weiyuan, who is your family? Wait Master is here, let's talk about it?"

As soon as these words came out, no one dared to be arrogant anymore, and even the queue became more regular.

Su Tang knew this and didn't say anything, but secretly laughed at Qi Tianyun a few times, but Qi Tianyun ended it with a kiss.

After the breakfast shop in Dongcheng had been operating for half a month, Su Tang felt that she was finally fine! She can finally go home and be a salted fish!

Or go to the Dream Pavilion to lie down for an afternoon.

She doesn't want to work anyway!

So when the shop was very popular in Dongcheng earlier, Su Tang successfully rested at home.

Aunt Zhou is obviously used to it, she is very grateful to Su Tang for trusting her so much, and cherishes this job very much.

But what Su Tang didn't expect was that after she opened a breakfast shop in this remote place, the rent here gradually increased!

Because Su Tang's breakfast shop brought a lot of traffic here, some people saw the opportunity and immediately opened a shop nearby, and gradually there were more shops.

This may be that ordinary shops are opened in the downtown area, and powerful shops are opened in remote places, and then the remote places are turned into downtown areas!

Su Tang didn't think too much, she was thinking about opening a second restaurant in Dongcheng.

That's right, Su Tang suddenly became ambitious.

It wasn't that she suddenly didn't want salted fish, but because she looked at the account book and took a deep breath. It was really not easy to move to Dongcheng, and the expenses were multiplied!

If you don't make good money, you can't lie down with salty fish!

Moving to the East Side did cost a lot.

Not to mention that there are too many people working in the family, even the carriages and horses are all money, and she and her younger brother can't be the same, just wear whatever they want.

After all, she is Qi Tianyun's fiancée, not to mention how well she dresses, she can't be ashamed anyway.

Thinking about it this way, falling in love really costs money.

As soon as Su Tang told Qi Tianyun, the flowing cloth was delivered.

Heh man, he must want to spoil her.

That's what Su Tang said, and he is still planning to open a second shop in Dongcheng.

But when I was thinking about the regulations, another matter came to me.

That is the God of Cooking Competition.

To be honest, this competition is meaningless. After all, among the five of them, no matter who they are, they are very powerful.

But if it is said to be the most powerful, then there must be a conclusion, and no one else will even object.

This person must be Su Tang.

When everyone was fighting on their own before, maybe they still wanted to compare.

But after the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, everyone knew how big the gap between them and Su Tang was.

Take boiled cabbage as an example, some people may think that so many precious and delicious ingredients can be stewed, stewed and boiled, and then put together, that’s enough.

But is that really the case

How to handle each ingredient and how long to cook it is best.

There may be more than a dozen processing methods for more than a dozen ingredients. Su Tang has to write them down one by one, find out the respective ingredients, the time of putting each ingredient into the pot, when to use high heat, when to use medium heat, and when to use low heat.

In short, all factors may affect the taste of the stew.

This is just a part of the embarrassment. If you really want to do it, ordinary people may not be able to make a soup well.

Not to mention that the dish is not only difficult to stew.

Anyway, the four of them have already done it twice, but if they were to do it alone, they would probably be in a hurry and couldn't do it at all.

So in the hearts of the four of them, Su Tang must be the well-deserved number one.

But they decided that there was no way!

The game is even better than that!

Now the game has entered the eighth round, and five people have entered three.

Then the ninth round, that is to determine the champion.

Huang Yuetong and the others really wanted to give up at this point, but whatever, they would definitely lose anyway.

But Shuntian Mansion wanted the competition to continue, because the competition had to have a beginning and an end, and next year, maybe the second God of Cooking Competition could be held.

When Su Tang heard this, he said that Mr. Pei should not be an official, but should be a program planner!

This is simply the embryonic form of a talent show.

But now the game is purely for enjoyment, for the enjoyment of the audience, everyone wants to know what else they will make.

When Pei Fuyin was making plans for the eighth round of the competition, Qi Tianyun called him over and expressed his idea.

When Fu Yin Pei was officially ready, he sent paperwork to the five contestants.

It is now September, and it has been a month since the last competition, but this month does not feel empty at all.

After all, the legend of the five players has been circulating.

Therefore, it is no problem to schedule the eighth round to the end of September.

But this time the topic is even more different. They have to wait for foreigners from overseas to come to the capital, and then make things with various ingredients they have never seen before.

Yes, Qi Tianyun has been informed that the merchant ship that set off last time will be docking soon.

According to the original plan, Qi Tianyun would take Su Tang to the bay to see the big ships moored, and pick out novel edible food from them.

But when the people on the boat saw that they were about to reach Cangqin, they let the boat go back to the capital to report the news.

It turned out that the imperial court secretly sent merchant ships to the other side of the ocean to collect all kinds of unseen food, seeds, ores, and of course cocoa was also bought in large quantities. People in Cangqin liked it very much.

This behavior caught the attention of the local king.

Under the sway of court officials, tea and silk unique to the Cangqin Kingdom were brought out as gifts.

Not only that, this official disguised as a businessman also helped to improve the local butter making method, of course, he knew all about it from Su Tang.

This allowed the merchant ship to establish a good relationship with the local king.

The king decided to send someone over to see what the Cangqin state was like according to the officials.

Is it really as rich as he said.

But their country does not have a big ship like the Cang Qin State, so they had to stuff everything on the Cang Qin State's ship.

Bringing great quantities of their ingredients, spices, and precious jewels.

So, this merchant ship, which returned with a full load, embarked on a journey back home.

When Qi Tianyun heard the news, he was naturally overjoyed. As long as there is more and more food, the lives of the people of Cang Qin Kingdom will become better and better.

For example, the exotic food cocoa has occupied the lives of many nobles.

But cocoa is also the food of nobles overseas.

Then their civilians must have their own special ingredients, which is what Qi Tianyun wants.

As for how to make it delicious and acceptable to everyone

Qi Tianyun was worried at all, because Su Tang was there, so why worry about it, she could make any food delicious.

Qi Tianyun had great confidence in her.

So the topic of the eighth round of competition is, how to make these novel ingredients!

Although Cangqin's merchant ships and overseas guests are still on their way, Qi Tianyun is fully prepared and just waiting for them to come.

As soon as Su Tang saw the issued paperwork, she immediately sat up.

overseas

Are potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, and tomatoes coming

If that's the case, then she can spend a month in the kitchen doing all kinds of things!

Not to mention the simple ones, such as potato and chicken nuggets, tomato sirloin, steamed corn and grilled corn popcorn, and various sweet potato products.

Su Tang is drooling just thinking about it.

She has never been so looking forward to the start of the game!

Please, at least have a potato tomato, these two are really important to her!

And these are all high-yielding, fast-growing foods. Take potatoes and sweet potatoes as examples. These are famous famine foods, which can keep many people from starving!

Although the current varieties of potatoes and sweet potatoes are not comparable to those of later generations, they are still more productive than wheat and rice.

So no matter in terms of output or taste, Su Tang is looking forward to it!

If she didn't already have the paperwork, she would want Qi Tianyun to take her to the seaside now, and watch the cargo unloaded from the merchant ship!
